Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

Heat crept up Zhang Liling\'s face, landing a faint blush on her cheeks.

With the way Mr. Fang was staring at her, she was sure that she got everything all wrong. Now she just wanted to hide in embarrassment, and didn\'t even want to stay there to hear his explanation.

She desperately wanted to hide in a corner.

Mr. Fang noticed her embarrassment and wondered where the crying lady went to? Because the switch in emotions baffled him.

"So, this is what you look like when you cry?" He asked with furrowed brows, failing to notice the tease in his tone.

Zhang Liling felt more embarrassed and made sure not to meet with his gaze. Could she get any more embarrassed?

She couldn\'t believe that Mr. Fang has seen this delicate side of her, all because of her negligence. Currently, she really wanted to open her head and see what was inside.

How could she come up with such an absurd thought about getting fired just like that? And it\'s not like she heard anything like that from anyone.

\'Mr. Fang must think that beyond this pretty face, lies a fool!\' She felt like ruffling her hair while gritting her teeth.

Mr. Fang shook his head and said, "Go out and meet Bolin, he will give you the details of your new job description."

He didn\'t want to continue seeing her face. The more she remained in his presence, the more baffled he felt.

It would be better if she left him to think rationally.

Zhang Liling wanted to ask him why her role was changing, but held her tongue at the last minute.

She didn\'t want to say anything after making a fool of herself.

Glancing at the wipes on his table, she shifted her gaze to him, and then shifted it back to the wipes.

She wanted to take some of them to wipe her face so no one else can see her like that when she leaves, but she didn\'t know how to ask him for it.

Reading her expressions and little gestures, Mr. Fang asked her to take it. "If you want it, take it and leave my study immediately."

Instinctively, she stretched her hand to pull out a few pieces and thanked him in a hoarse voice before running away.

As she left, Mr. Fang massaged his forehead and then glared at the door.

That girl was really something else.

Zhang Liling only stopped running when she got to the stairs. There, she took deep breaths and exhaled to calm her nerves, before going on to wipe her face with the wipes she took from Mr. Fang.

Since there was no mirror to look at, she had to make sure she wiped her face properly, and only started to descend the stairs when she felt confident enough.

When she got down and landed at the foot of the stairs, Butler Gu was coming towards her direction after he saw her.

He stared at her in concern and noticed the difference in her looks. "Miss Zhang, did you cry?" He asked.

If not that Zhang Liling sensed the concern in his tone, she would have been very angry with him for saying it out loud.

Zhang Liling looked elsewhere and replied, "I misunderstood him. Who wouldn\'t cry when they are to be fired from their job for no reason?"

Next, she brushed past him without looking back.

Butler Gu smiled at her back and shook his head. Zhang Liling was truly a character.

But he just couldn\'t tell how everyone managed to tolerate her.

A few minutes later, Bolin left with the new housekeeper to see Mr. Fang.

After the woman introduced herself, Butler Gu took her away to show her to her room, while Bolin remained.

"Next time, make everyone aware when I make this kind of decision. How could you forgot to mention it to her when you are switching her role?" Mr. Fang blamed Bolin for Zhang Liling\'s misunderstanding.

"It\'s my fault for being negligent." Bolin apologized.

Mr. Fang sighed. "Have you made their roles clear to them?"

He was talking about Zhang Liling and the new Hoousekeeper.

"I would do that now, and leave after that," Bolin stated.

Zhang Liling washed her face in her bathroom before drying it with a soft face towel. Glancing at her face in the mirror, she discovered that her eyes were a little puffy and frowned hard.

She really wanted to put ice on them to make them look better, but she didn\'t think she could handle the iciness from it.

Sighing to herself, she hung her towel on the rail, patted her cheeks before stepping into her room to sit on her bed.

Releasing another deep sigh, she slowly made contact with her back on the bed and shut her eyes.

A little crying was enough to make her this tired.

Some minutes later, she was woken up by a knock on the door and quickly went to open it.

There, Bolin was, standing before her.

"Miss Zhang, can you come out for a few minutes?" He asked.

Zhang Liling found out the reason he came to find her, was to clearly state her new tasks in the house, and distinguish it from the one the housekeeper would be doing.

Her task was a lot easier, as she didn\'t have to worry about back pains and stress.

She only had to focus on taking care of Mr. Fang\'s study, and bedroom. She still had to bring him a bottle of water to the gym room every morning.

After finding out about Mr. Fang\'s illness, she could tell that he didn\'t want another person\'s scent around the area he normally frequented, hence he left her with those tasks.

Zhang Liling couldn\'t be anymore grateful than now.

Glancing at the new housekeeper again, she greeted her properly this time around, before going back to her room and leaving Bolin to show her around.

IN THE STUDY...

Old lady Fang waited for her grandson to call back, but he didn\'t. This left her no choice but to call him.

"A woman is leaving in your home? Who is she? Is she your girlfriend?" The old lady asked away without holding back.

Her tone sounded curious and a little excited.
