122 Saved Him Once Again!

...

"What did you say?!" Ellen immediately shot up from his seat as he sharply glared at him.

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier?!"

'You didn't even give me time to speak!' Secretary Han complained in his heart but he didn't dare say it aloud.

When he saw his terrifying glare, he gulped, his entire body trembling in fear. "Boss, I.."

A gust of wind blew by his side and the boss was already gone.

"..Forgot.." He looked back and saw his boss dashing towards the elevator.

"Sigh." I'll just wait here obediently for my death sentence now.

...

Lounge Area.

Song Xia waited and waited for a long time.

She soon grew impatient as she drank her black coffee. She then played with her phone in bore.

Gradually, she started feeling suspicious as she looked down at her watch and frowned. 'Why isn't Ellen here yet?'

She recalled Tang Yan's words from earlier..

'Is he still angry at me and doesn't want to see me? Then should I leave? I finally pulled myself together and decided to come but alas..'

She pursed her lips.

'If Ellen doesn't want to see me, then it's better for me to just leave; I'm not a clingy person, alright. I guess I'll just return home and watch a new movie..'

Song Xia dazedly stared at her watch and felt reluctant to stand up. She sighed. 'Alright, I'll just wait for five minutes first..'

Five minutes passed. She sighed again. 'Well then, I'll get going..'

*Bang*

Just as she stood up to leave, the door slammed open. Song Xia abruptly looked over in surprise and met Ellen's panicky eyes.

Ellen looked at her standing there and sighed in relief before quickly making his way over to her. "I thought.. You left.."

Before Song Xia could react, he bowed his head in self-reproach, "I'm sorry, I was busy with work and I didn't know you were here.."

He couldn't help but grumble inside. It's all that Secretary Han's fault!

Meanwhile, in the office, Secretary Han suddenly sneezed. 'Which brat is cursing me?'

Song Xia blinked, her lips slightly curling involuntarily. "Oh I thought you were angry at me.."

She felt relieved when she found out that he hadn't deliberately made her wait in a fit of anger.

"Angry?"

"Yeah, the matter that day, I.." She paused when she saw his expression darkening.

Ellen quickly composed himself and softly said, "Don't worry. I didn't take it to heart." He then added, "Let's go to my office first."

Without waiting for her to reply, he grabbed her wrist and led her to the elevator.

Maybe because he remembered his mistake from that day, his hand moved down and interlaced their hands.

Song Xia was stunned at his actions. Her face turned red as she lowered her head and pulled the cap down even more.

They were shocked by this earth-shattering scene before them.

They were already astounded when they saw that their Boss running out as if his life depended on it..

And then they got another overwhelming shock later on; their boss had returned, holding hands with a woman!

Secretary Han, who was still in his Boss' office awaiting his death, saw Ellen coming back with Song Xia and couldn't help but call out. "Boss-"

But Ellen's cold gaze shut him up.

Ellen then ignored him outright as he turned to the girl and spoke softly as he pulled out an armchair for her. "Sit here."

Then he glared at the frozen Secretary Han and bellowed coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Go back!"

Secretary Han didn't delay and hastily exited the office, feeling ecstatic in his heart.

Oh, Lady boss had saved him once again! He felt very thankful!

As he exited the office, he spotted several faces staring at him with gossip clearly written in their faces.

"Secretary Han! Who was the lady that Boss brought back?"

"Secretary Han, which family Miss is that lady from, huh? They'll surely strike gold if they ride on Boss' coattails!"

"Who is so lucky to gain affection from our cold-hearted Boss?"

Secretary Han sternly replied, "The lady is our Boss' woman! As for her family, she's the long-lost daughter of the Tang Family!"

He didn't want to sell his lady boss out, but these people were trying to insult her so he had to give them a big face-slap!

The managers who wanted to trample on Song Xia, were speechless.

"...What did I just hear?!"

"Wait, which Tang family are you talking about, Secretary Han?!"

Secretary Han expressionlessly bullshitted, "Of course it's Sir Tang's family! Let me tell you, the Tang Family cherishes her the most! She's the apple of both their and Boss' eyes!"

Everyone fell silent before laughing. They didn't believe him.

"..Secretary Han, you're joking!"

"Yeah, if the Tang Family really had a daughter, why would they hide her?"

"It wasn't funny at all, Secretary Han!"

Secretary Han blatantly rolled his eyes.

"Whatever. Believe in me or not, scram from here before Boss gets disturbed by your chattering and tells you to redo the plan once again."

"..."

The managers then watched him leave, dumbfounded..

"Is that really true?"

"..It must be true.. The golden manager won't lie, right?"

"Oh my god, let me tell others about this!"

"Shh, don't! Boss will kill us if we leak any information out!"

"Am I the only one who feels that our Lady Boss looks quite familiar?"

"That's your delusion! Where do you meet such a fine young lady like her!"

"I didn't get to see her face clearly since she was wearing mask, but I can already say that our lady boss is drop-dead gorgeous!"

"Ai, stop talking about Lady Boss if you still want your job!"

The group of people gradually dispersed.

They were still traumatised by their Boss' scolding these few days, so they obediently went back to do their works..

...

In the office.

Ellen skimmed over his documents but he subconsciously looked over at the woman, who was quietly looking around his office..

At the same time, Song Xia happened to meet his eyes and tilted her head as she stared at him in a daze.

His heart unknowingly skipped a beat.
