64 Tricked but Not Tricked
Liling hadn't admired his office properly when she had come in, what was on her mind at that time was how to realize her money, now she was relaxed, she looked around carefully.
His office was really large, he even had a mini parlour!, so tastefully decorated. There was a door leading to another room, obviously his restroom or maybe an office bedroom. You couldn't guess less.
She couldn't admire the beauty of his office more, well she had to accept, being rich was quite nice.
Though Liu Wei pretended to be busy typing on his laptop, his attention had been on her the whole time.
He was happy that she was no longer tense, his gaze fell on the paper he had scribbled on, a mischievous grin appeared on his cheeks.
If only she knew what she was getting into, this time around he wasn't letting her go. Ever!
After about thirty minutes, a knock was heard on the door. Liling turned towards the door when she heard Liu Wei invite the person in.
A man in his mid fifties walked in with a brief case. His smile was overwhelming, it was obvious that he was well acquainted with Liu Wei.
"Liu Wei, it's been quite a long time. What made you invite this old man this time? " He walked in and sat down near Liling without even waiting for Liu Wei to tell him to.
Liu Wei smiled and greeted him accordingly. Liling immediately greeted him too, which he acknowledged with a slight nod.
"Mr Fang, I need you to make this into an official deed."
He handed the paper he had written on over to the attorney.
The attorney read through it and laughed a little, then he glanced at Liling for the second time since he entered the office.
"Is she the second party? "
He asked returning his gaze to the paper.
Liu Wei muffled a positive reply as he waited for him to be through with it.
"Okay, do you want it exactly as you have written it or should I make some adjustments? "
"Exactly as I have written it, and I want it before two this afternoon, is that okay by you? "
"Sure, it won't even take that much time, if that's all, I should be on my way.
He stood up and gently nodded at Liu Wei, then shifted his gaze to the petite figure by his side, smiling he strode out of the office, gently closing the door behind him.
The room became quiet again. Liling continued fondled with her long hair as Liu Wei crossed his hands watching her.
"Do you want to stay here in front of me till he returns or you want to sit over there? "
"Uh?, oh.. I think I'll seat over there, thank you."
She turned immediately and walked over to the sweetly decorated relaxing area and made herself comfy on a cushion. The TV was showing a reality show but she wasn't even in the mood to watch shows.
She carefully took out her phone from her purse and began playing with it, careful not to make any sound.
Liu Wei returned to his work but every once in a while he'll find himself glancing at the small parlour.
She was sitting discreetly on the cushion fondling with her phone, he felt the urge to ask her if she needed something to drink but he stopped himself.
Given her previous attitude in America, she might feel he was overindulging. So he kept it to himself and concentrated on his work.
After about an hour or two, a knock was heard again. Liu Wei told the person to come in, then glanced at Liling only to realize that she had dozed off on the cushion, her phone had already fallen from her hands.
He chuckled lightly and walked towards her, squatting down, he picked up her phone from the floor then gently tapped her.
Liling gradually opened her heavy eyes when he shook her lightly. She stood up immediately, extremely surprised to see him in front of her.
It took her sometime to realize that she had been sleeping, she immediately apologized.
"Mr Liu Wei, I'm sorry.."
Liling apologized embarrassedly as she rubbed her drowsy eyes. Liu Wei stood up and handed over her phone.
He didn't utter a word, just casually walked back to his seat. The attorney who was already waiting for both of them was flipping through a document.
Liling who had quietly followed behind Liu Wei silently sat down and looked over at him.
"This is it, check if there are any mistakes "
The attorney handed over the document to Liu Wei who looked through it and signed on the last page the portion apportioned to him.
He handed the document over to Liling who took it carefully.
She had wanted to read through it but the writing was extremely tiny, she just read the boldly written words on the top, turned to the last page and signed.
Liu Wei took the contract from her and walked over to a photocopying machine by his table and made three photocopies.
He gave the original to the attorney, Liling had one to herself and he, the last one.
After a brief talk with Liu Wei, the attorney left his office.
"Did you read through the contract before signing? "
Liu Wei asked after the attorney had left.
Liling looked up in surprise, was there any need to read the contract?
He had already said what she would do, was there something different in the contract?
Liling became apprehensive, she shook her head and immediately picked the abandoned document on her laps and went through it carefully.
"Mr Liu Wei!, two years?. Isn't it too much? I wouldn't even earn a dime!
