Hu Lei thought that she would need to ovee more obstacles before seeing Ah-Feng. But it seemed that fate was on her side for once.


    "Miss Hu, I did not know that you wereing here." Assistant Zhe looked surprised.


    "Ha-ha, I just that it would be fun to drop in." Sheughed awkwardly. "Can I go in? I might havee in without approval and some guard dogs might be after me."


    Assistant Zhe looked at the seemingly guileless small woman with her foolish expression and could not help feeling incredulous. How could this woman be the person that the iparable Zhong Feng had chosen? Shouldn''t he be with someone at his level?


    If he could describe Hu Lei in a few worlds, he would say that she was a small animal, perhaps a kitten. On the other hand, Boss Zhong was like a dragon among men, proud, lofty and all-powerful. However, instead of this dragon choosing a mighty phoenix, he had chosen the stumbling and helpless kitten.


    "You can go right ahead." He pointed at the door.


    He did not dare to be negligent, in spite of his personal opinion. Chen Li had told him that he could treat anyone else poorly, except Hu Lei. If Zhong Feng was a dragon, then this small animal was his proverbial reverse scale.


    As soon as she stepped into the office, the receptionist came in on fast legs.


    "Assistant Zhe, did you see a womane through here?" She asked, a little breathless.


    ''So, she was not kidding about sneaking in.'' Assistant Zhe felt that Hu Lei might be a little interesting. She could have spoken her name and had him or the boss approve her entry. Instead, she had chosen this roundabout method. "Next time, do not stop her."


    He did not speak unnecessary words or exin her identity. People in his position could not be presumptuous. The receptionist looked confused, but she could only return to her desk.


    When Hu Lei opened the door, Zhong Feng did not look up from hisputer. In fact, he seemed not to notice that someone had entered. He was probably expecting his secretaries or Assistant Zhe. She closed the door and posed against it dramatically.


    "Hello, handsome man." She lowered her voice, attempting a seductive tone.


    Zhong Feng looked up and discovered a ridiculous scene. Hu Lei had lifted her right hand above her head while her left palm was stered on the door beside her hip which had been thrust to the side. Finally her head was lifted upwards exposing her slender neck, as if she was Cleopatra.


    He did not move for a long moment and then, he startedughing. It was not politeughter, but rather real and deep merriment, as if tears would begin falling from his eyes at any moment. Hu Lei was star struck by the appearance of the handsome manughing so openly. It seemed like there were speckles of gold surrounding him.


    But how could she let go of this impolite behaviour?


    She dropped her pose and folded her hands over her chest. She huffed as she looked at him.


    "Is something funny, Mr President?"


    Zhong Feng stood up from his seat and approached her. She turned her back to him even though she wanted to smile at his somewhat guilty and cating look. He ced his hands on her shoulders, pulling her back to his chest. She still refused to turn to him.


    "You can do it again. I promise I won''tugh." He coaxed her hugging her tighter. Unfortunately, his efforts were ruined by the obvious amusement in his voice.


    "You think I can''t hear that you are stillughing?" She turned to re at him.


    "I am just happy to see you. How can I not smile when I look at you?" The man pressed on without shame.


    Humph! At least, he knows how to lie when it is appropriate. It seems that his EQ is no longer in the negatives.


    "Were you surprised?" She asked with twinkling eyes, deciding to put behind the matter behind her. It was not good to be calcting with people who could not recognise seduction.


    "Mmmh… I am very surprised." He kissed the top of her head.


    Hu Lei nodded in satisfaction before turning around to look at the office. It was muchrger than the one that he had at Etude. However, the design was essentially the same. There was no unnecessary décor in the space, just the essentials.


    "It seems that you have gone up in life." She teased him as she walked to therge, full-length window.


    He followed her with a smile, and they stood together, looking down at the city from their lofty position.


    "Perhaps I decided to fulfil your dream of me being an evil emperor." He ced a strong arm around her delicate waist, holding her closer to himself.


    "Does that make me a wicked consort?" She asked with augh.


    "Would you rather be an innocent princess captured from anothernd by this evil lord?" He turned and firmly ced her back against the window. If Hu Lei was afraid of heights, she would have been shaking in fear as her entire body was pressed against the clear ss.


    Zhong Feng leaned and pressed light kisses on her neck. Hu Lei hummed a little as tilting a head as she enjoyed the sensation and warmth. The annoyance that she had felt earlier because of those petty people seemed to disappearpletely, and it was reced with unspeakable happiness.


    "I could be a seductive spy who hase to steal the secrets of your empire." her breath was a little short,ing out in soft pants as things heated up.


    Zhong Feng snuck his hands under her shirt and caressed the soft skin of her abdomen before raising his head.


    "I would freely give you all my secrets." Those words held a hint of solemnity.


    Hu Lei looked at his dark eyes with her own glowing ones. She could not believe the way he looked at her. Numerous times, she had sat down by herself and wondered why he was with her. There was truly nothing special about her. In fact, all she had right now was brokenness. However, she knew one thing for certain.


    "Ah-Feng, I love you."
