Chapter 52 - 52. Professional.

Once outside the building, they hopped into his car and went on to carry business at the QMX building immediately without looking back, as a result, they failed to notice the shadow of a woman behind the car, which was parked a bit away from there own.

It was Nian Xi...it seems Ruri had an condo in this building too.

Enemies really meet at narrow lanes....haaah.

She had an evil glint in her eyes, it was like she got a golden ticket for free and instead of using it directly she wanted to earn as much as she can by selling it.

Their days to come might get a bit turbulent...well, no one knows what the future holds, all we can do is face it without backing or cowering out!

................

The rest of the day went without any problem arising.

Qin ZiXuan was not allowed to work, that is, to give his eyes some much-needed rest for the rest of the day, well, with our Empress here, of course, there was no problem with work. You see!! This is the best part about gathering intelligent people under the same roof, the works go very smoothly ba!

Qin ZiXuan was only allowed to read the final papers for some proposals Meilin had finalized for their upcoming projects and after deliberating with each other on some problems that may arise, he signed them.

Qin ZiXuan was ecstatic beyond reason, still, he was professional when doing work...a trait Meilin really liked about him.

Many people no matter how small, still sometimes let their emotions run wild and decide something based on them, which they might, in the long run, regret. But Qin ZiXuan was always rationale while doing his work, never letting his emotions decide his decisions, he was a very very rationale guy.

Well, it was also a reason among the infinities, why he was the CEO of the Empire at his age, which by no means, is old!!

After their packed schedule for the afternoon and evening, well, being at the top of an empire is no joke, they are responsible for all their employees and families, heck, they are involved in the country's economy so, some might forget the hard work these people put to be on the top, it's not all about having a mountain of money to spend lavishly but also to earn that, that is, their work won't vanish into thin air and this is the reason they are at the top and a population is under them...anyway, finally after finishing their respective works, they went to his penthouse at the top.

It was not decided where they will stay. Meilin preferred a villa for his security, the Qin Mansion though safe was too far from their workplace so, it was a no-go.

Qin ZiXuan had the mindset of 'Meilin is my home, where she lives is our home to return back to',..... I tell you, MEN!!

Ahem!!

Meilin had no idea what was inside that cute head of his, but she had an inkling that they can't stay in his penthouse...it felt desolate and lonely, not warm at all...every corner stank of 'only for work' so, in the end, she decided to stay at her place for the time being, it was closeby, huge and ZiXuan seemed to love it...

It was quite late today so she decided to cook their food there.

She had made sure to cut off all those unnecessary dinner meetings...at least for the time being and of course it was possible with her by his side from now on, if push came to shove, she might as well use her identity as a Qin, but then again, who had the guts to defy her anyway.

She went into the kitchen while playing, 'green veggies and no dessert', in a loop in her mind and before she knew it she had prepared a total of five vegan dishes....for our ZiXuan's sake. I'm not going into details as he cried out without shedding any tears just from finishing the dishes and hence, didn't want them to be named.

After dinner, he helped him to put drops in his eyes and stayed beside him to comfort him.

He was someone who would never deliberately choose to close his eyes.

They both were claustrophobic, yes, but he also had a severe case of Achluophobia...he not just hated it, he was scared to the bones of darkness, which sometimes caused him to relapse if he didn't have someone he could confide with, by his side or, proper medical help....he has it since childhood, another part of his history she had no idea about.

As if in cue to her thinking process, in a soft voice like the mewling of an abandoned kitten he whispered, "Li-Linlin."

Like whispering a lullaby to a baby, in a very soft but firm voice she replied, "hmm...Linlin is here, Xuanxuan. I'm here..will always be."
