Chapter 225 - 2609

"You are a stupid CEO who doesn't even has a screen lock on his phone." Mai Yuerui said to kong Xianwang.

"Screen lock? Oh yes, I don't like screen lock. I just prefer it this way." Kong Xianwang was confused at first then he explained.

"You just prefer it like this? What if people steals information from your phone?"Mai Yuerui was surprised. It was not the first time that happened with Kong Xianwang. In fact, Mai Yuerui herself had used his phone before.

"Who would dare to steal information from my phone?" Kong Xianwang said with attitude.

'Han Yefang!' Mai Yuerui thought in her mind.

She knew that she can't beat his narcissistic attitude. So she decided to stay quiet.

When Kong Xianwang didn't get any reply from her, he silently ate his meal.

...

After their meal both Kong Xianwang and Mai Yuerui were washing the dishes together in the kitchen. Mai Yuerui was washing them and Kong Xianwang was wiping them with a napkin.

While they were doing the dishes Kong Xianwang cautiously asked her, "Mai Yuerui?"

"Hmm..."

"What were you doing in the hotel today?"

Mai Yuerui stopped washing the dishes.

She knew she has to face this question. Not only that she knew she should also tell him about her and Han Yefang's relationship. But she didn't know from where to start.

'No... May be this is the time. I think I should tell him.' saying so she turned towards Kong Xianwang.

"Actually, Mr. Kong, there's one thing that I didn't tell you about." She said slowly.

"Really? You can tell me now if you want." Subconsciously his grip on the plate in his hand hardened. He is feeling nervous.

"Actually, Han Yefang is not only my former classmate. He is also my..."

"Ex-boyfriend." He completed her sentence for her. He pressed his lips and tried to make a smile.

"You knew?" Mai Yuerui was shocked.

"From when?" She again asked.

"You can say, I knew it from the start. You two were so obvious." Even though Kong Xianwang made a nonchalant face as if he didn't care, but actually he cared. He cared about her decision.

Mai Yuerui didn't have any words to say. She was feeling embarrassed.

Seeing her silent Kong Xianwang decided to talk.

"So did you two...."

He paused a little then continued, "Made up today?"

The Mai Yuerui who couldn't talk with an eye contact immediately looked at him.

"What are you talking? There's nothing between us. Believe me."

"Ms. Mai, then what were you doing there for 20 minutes?" At least for once he wanted to ask her face to face since it is his right as her husband.

"You knew that I was him from the start?"

"Ms. Mai, I am not that stupid that someone will touch my thing and I wouldn't know about it." Whenever the scene of her and Han Yefang together flashed in his memory his temper loose control.

"Are you getting angry at me?" Mai Yuerui asked.

"What? No!" When he realized he had said to much he tried to control his emotions.

"No, you are." Mai Yuerui started to cry.

"Whose fault is it that I was stuck with him? You! If you had your phone password protected then I wouldn't be with him today." Yuerui started to rant her anger and tears started to fall from her eyes.

Seeing her cry made Kong Xianwang's anger flew from his mind. He started to panic seeing her crying.

Out of nervousness he was about to wipe her face with napkin that he used to wipe the wet dishes.

"Hey! What are you doing?" He again got scolded.

"Oh, sorry." He threw the napkin and took out his handkerchief.

"Here, take this. Please don't cry. I didn't knew he massaged you with my phone. I only found that you are the one he talked with when I heard you had gone to his hotel."

"Then whose fault is this?" She said while sniffing her nose.

"Mine." Kong Xianwang sighed.

"Stupid CEO. Put a lock in your phone, right now." She demanded.

"Okay. But... What will be the password?" He asked.

"I don't know. Set whatever you want."

Kong Xianwang picked his phone and set his password as Mai Yuerui's birthday.

'2609'

----------

After confessing to Kong Xianwang about her previous relationship, Mai Yuerui felt light in her heart. She had a sound sleep that night.

But when she woke up the next day, her mind went crazy.

"O MY GOD!"

"How will I face those people in the office?"

"I have already seen a trailer on how they react when they heard their CEO to call a female employee to his office. They made a big thing of that tiny issue."

"What will that do? When they will hear that girl is now his wife?"

Various thoughts crossed her tiny mind while choosing her clothes for the day.

After contemplating for a while she decided to wear her every day casual clothes.

Wearing extra will drag extra attention to her which she doesn't like.

After getting ready she took off for office.

------

Mai Yuerui made it in time to reach the office. But she didn't see anyone in the hallway.

'May be every one is in the office.' she thought.

As soon as she entered the office every one stood up from their seats making Mai Yuerui unprepared.

She wanted to quietly walk to her room but she couldn't get that chance.

"Please don't do this." Mai Yuerui started to wave her hands to say no.

After hearing the commotion outside, Lin Zongguan came out from his room.

"What is this commotion?"

He looked at Mai Yuerui and then continued, "What? You didn't see her face before? Go back to your work."

Mai Yuerui became so much relieved.

With the help of Lin Zongguan she was able to avoid such uncomfortable situation.

Suddenly Su and Kai ran to her out of nowhere and asked her with curiosity, "Is it true, little cat?"

Mai Yuerui nodded slowly.

"Come with me." Su grabbed her hand and dragged her to their room.

While they were dragging her, Mai Yuerui nodded to Lin Zongguan to greet him.

--------

"Mai Yuerui, daughter of Mai Minghui! Am I right?" Kai asked her with interrogative eyes.

"Yes." She replied.

"Then why didn't you tell us before?" Kai asked her with impatience.

"Is this question important now?" But Su interrupted his interrogation.

She held both Mai Yuerui's shoulder and said, "When did you get married? And how dare you didn't tell us about it?"

"It's been only a few days. I was about to tell you. It's just that we decided to disclose this after a few days."

"We-eee" both su and Kai started to tease her.

"Hey! Don't do that." Mai Yuerui hit Both Su and Kai with a file.

"Yes. Our CEO cough...cough... Aka you husband is more important then your friends, right? We get it." Su started pretending to be hurt.

"Please, don't say that. Both of you are important to me." And Mai Yuerui fell in their trap.

"Then you have to give us treats today to make up your fault. Don't try to avoid it."

"So this was all your plan!" Mai Yuerui instantly understood their plan.

"Don't be stinky" both Su and Kai retaliated.

"Okay, okay. Today I will treat you with whatever you want."

Yeah...

The room got filled with her excitement.

-------

In the cafeteria, every people were looking at Mai Yuerui from time to time making her feel awkward. Some of them even came to talk with her with honey coated words which successfully made her cringe.

'Aghh... How can I manage this now?' she thought.

"Bad, Mai Yuerui!" Su suddenly said.

""Did you say something." Mai Yuerui asked.

"You must be enjoying this attention now, right? Now you will forget us."

"Aren't you two had enough of playing the victim card for too long. It doesn't change the fact that you two are my friends even after my marriage."

"With CEO Kong Xianwang." They both completed her sentence to teased her again.

"Please don't do it now. Tell me how to deal with others. I really feel awkward. I am not used to with so much attention."

"Easy solution. Just stand up and tell everyone to treat you like always. And Bam! Problem solved in just one line." Su said.

"Isn't it a bit rude? Forget it. I will just greet them normally." Mai Yuerui said.

"By the way, Little cat, did Si ying knew about it too?" Su asked with curiosity.

"He is his secretary. So of course, he knew."

"Oh! He knew!" Su said while greeting her teeth.

'How dare he hide this from me!' she thought on her mind.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you something, that girl in black that night, who tied Kai's hands with a tape? She is actually a bodyguard who works for my father. She had been with me for a while now. I am telling you because you may see her often now."

"Is she single?" That is the first question Kai asked the moment he heard about Sophie.

"Why? Are you interested in her?"

"Ignore him, Mai Yuerui. He has been single for such a long time that, whenever he sees any girl on the street he wants to ask her out."

"Poor thing. I can give you an advise. Why not you ask her yourself?" Mai Yuerui said with a mischievous smile.

"Are you crazy? I don't wanna break my hands." Kai immediately replied.

The three again started to laugh.
