Chapter 252 - Compensation?
Han Corporations-
Han Zihao was sitting on his executive chair with gloomy expressions as he read the contents of the document in his hand.
The head of the event management team, who was standing in front of him, pursed his lips nervously and asked in a low voice, " Sir, are there any changes that you suggest? Or something that we need to work on?"
Han Zihao slowly raised his head to look at him and pursed his lips solemnly.
Upon seeing Han Zihao's serious gaze, the man was having a hard time. He was doing his best to stay calm and was avoiding having eye contact with him.
" What do you think? Do you think that your proposal is good enough? Huh?" Han Zihao said, while leaning forward on the desk.
The man clasped his palms together and bit his lower lip nervously. He was wishing, if he could faint at the moment, to avoid this deadly-suffocating situation. " I think we can improve this proposal a bit. We can add more ideas and-
" Then do it. Didn't I say to not show me lousy work? If you aren't confident in your work, then how can you expect me to be impressed by this? Do it again." Han Zihao said by throwing the file on the desk with a slam.
The man frowned. Can't he just tell them what he wants? In two days, he showed him 6 proposals and he had rejected all of them. This was his 7th proposal and it got rejected too.
'Seems like my team has to work overtime today as well.' He sighed.
As he was about to turn to leave, he heard a woman's voice, " Tsk, Tsk. Mr. Han, That's not right. Why are you torturing your employees like this? Give them a break." Xu Nuan, who just entered the office said as she walked towards Han Zihao's work desk.
The man stared at her in a daze, wondering, who is this girl who is talking to the President with such a casual attitude.
" They're humans. Not robots." She said as she stood in front of his desk and folded her hands in front of her chest.
Han Zihao was surprised to see her in his office. Upon seeing her all happy and giddy, he couldn't help but frown.
In the last few days, she has no idea of what torture he has gone through. All the time he kept thinking about their passionate kiss that she broke in the middle and gave him the cruelest punishment of all times?
The kissing ban in the first week of their dating officially? Doesn't she think that it's too cruel for him?
Who does that? All the articles on the internet say that the first month of dating is the sweetest and the most romantic period, and what are they doing? Working and working?
-
He didn't say anything and glanced at the man standing beside Xu Nuan, " Mr. Xen, aren't you leaving? I want another proposal by tomorrow night. You can leave now."
" Ye...Yes. Sir." The man jumped on his foot and nodded politely before exiting the office.
-
After the man left, only two of them were left in the room. Han Zihao glanced at her before engaging himself with other work.
He picked up a random file from the desk and started reading it.
Xu Nuan's lips curled into a smirk upon seeing his indifferent attitude towards her. He wasn't even giving her a glance and was busy reading the file that he was holding upside-down.
She didn't expose him and asked, " You seem to be busy. Should I just leave?"
He halted in his actions and asked her in a monotonous tone without glancing at her, " Do you have a lot of free time in hand to waste? Didn't you come here for something? What is it?"
She smiled, " Well, It's nothing much. I was missing my 'boyfriend', so I came to spend some time with him. But it seems like he is too busy to spare me a glance." she said while pouting.
Upon hearing her words, his lips were about to bloom into a smile but he bit his lower lip to control his emotions. If he lets his emotions get over him, then she will take advantage of this to play with him however she likes.
-
Even after confessing to each other, the other day, they aren't doing anything that normal couples do. On top of that, the bloody kissing ban.
Couldn't she find a better way to punish him? Why kissing ban?
After putting him through all of this torture, she was trying to charm him with her sweet words? This won't work this time.
He puts the file on the desk and looks at her, " Ms. Xu, this is an office. It's not a restaurant where you can come anytime to meet your boyfriend."
" You're right. This is an office, not a restaurant." She nodded.
She checked her watch and said, " But….I can meet my boyfriend during lunchtime, right?"
" See, it's already lunchtime." She said showing him the time in her wristwatch.
He frowned at her tricks. Sly girl!
However, before he could say anything, she stood up and clapped her hands excitedly, " Mr. Boyfriend, let's go out before lunchtime ends. I don't want to waste even a minute."
" Didn't I say a while ago that it's an office? People are here for work, not to date." He said sternly.
However, she wasn't ready to buy his cold attitude, " If you aren't coming then I am taking Feng Sheng with me. I am sure he will be more than happy to tag along with me." She said while walking towards the door, without turning to look at him.
"..."
Han Zihao pursed his lips upon hearing her threats. First Yuhan and now Feng Sheng, can she stop threatening him like this?
Does she think her threats will work on him? Hah! Never!
He is not that childish to get jealous easily.

Han Zihao was standing in the middle of the mall as he watched people walk in and out of the shops. The kids were playing in the kid's corner, while a group of girls was taking a group selfie on the other side.
Why did she bring him here out of all the places? A shopping mall?
He sighed and looked at the girl who was looking at the shops with a greedy glint in her eyes, " Why are we here? I am not interested in shopping."
" But I am!!" she replied.
She turned to him and looked at her with her clear eyes, " Didn't you say that you will give me your card when I punished you with the kissing ban? So we're doing that."
His face lit up upon hearing her words." So you're saying that you will lift the kissing ban after shopping?"
If she was ready to do that, he will not mind her emptying all of his cards at this moment.
She grinned at him and shook her head, " Of course not. The kissing ban is your punishment, while your shopping with your card is the compensation."
" Did you forgot? The compensation?"
"....."
Xu Nuan grins at him and wraps her hand around his arm, " Let's go!!"
-
" Finally!! I was starving." Xu Nuan exclaimed in relief when the waitress served the food. After looking around the shops for hours and using his card to pay, she was dying with hunger.
Did he think that she was just joking at that time? She doesn't joke when it comes to money.
It will be stupid of her to give away this golden opportunity to empty his card for shopping. In her past life, she had shopped a lot with her cards but shopping with his card gave her another kind of happy feeling.
So this is what it feels like to have a boyfriend? Rich one at that.
While she was gobbling all the food, Han Zihao watched her emptying the plates after emptying his wallets. He couldn't help but chuckle in speechlessness.
'She never fails to amuse me.'
-
" Mr. Han, are you going back to the office now?" Xu Nuan asked while putting her seatbelt on.
Han Zihao looked at her and asked, " What do you think?"
She pursed her lips and giggled. It was already past 6 pm. She didn't realize the time while shopping and it was too late to go back to the office now.
While Han Zihao was busy driving the car, she looked at her phone and sent a message to Feng Sheng, [Mr. Secretary, Mission completed.]
[ And don't worry. I have a way to fix your boss's mood swings.]
After sending the message, a bright smile bloomed on her lips thinking about the grumpy Han Zihao as she moved from one shop to another. She must be the first girl to make him carry her shopping bags.
She glanced at him and giggled, 'Mr. Han, don't worry. I won't let your efforts go in vain.'
