Jin Villa.
The day of the interview.
After getting dressed in a simple but exquisite pink color dress paired with matching sandals. Her hair was kept open and she has put on light makeup to complete the look.
In this attire, she was looking youthful and young. Though she was already young, earlier she was used to dress very maturely but now she was wearing bright colors and pink suits her.
She last time checked herself in the mirror, satisfied with herself she nodded.
Then she picked up her sling bag and the file which contained required documents for the interview. Then she went downstairs with her usual elegance.
..
Downstairs Liwei was reading the newspaper on the couch, waiting for her. When he heard the click-clack of the heels, he looked up and saw the beautiful girl in a pink dress.
She was wearing very light makeup and in this dress, she was looking like a college. It looks like she was on her first date, if she went out like this, every guy will fell for her.
Thinking about this, a frown came to his face but it disappeared quickly as she made her way to him.
He thought to himself, ' It doesn't matter who tries to hit on her or fell for her, in the end, she belongs to him. Others can only see her from afar but he lives with this beauty and she was his wife. '
Thinking this he grinned from ear to ear.
Xie Ming looked at him suspiciously and asked while placing her sling bag and file on the chair next to her on the dining table, " Why are you smiling so creepily?"
Liwei also made his way to the dining table, and was pulling his chair but paused in his actions when he heard her words, ' Smiling creepily?'
He has never heard someone calling his smile creepy. Instead, people die to see his handsome and bright smile. But this woman dared to call his smile creepy?
He stared at her with dissatisfaction. Seeing his reaction Xie Ming chuckled at his childishness. And focused on the food in front of her.
Liwei looked at her grimly and said, " You think my smile is creepy?"
Xie Ming looked at him and realized he was still sulking on that thing. She was lost at words, this man knows how to keep grudges.
She looked into his eyes and said while smiling brightly, " No. You're the most handsome man in this world while smiling." she said with exaggeration.
" But at least give me some notice before doing that so that my little weak heart could prepare for that. If you smile, out of the blue, how could this cute little heart take it."
She said this with a pout on the face and her one hand on her hear, directly looking into his eyes.
Liwei:" - __-" Isn't it too much exaggeration? He thought to himself.
Seeing her rosy lips pouting, he felt uncomfortable and her super cheesy words were more uncomfortable. He coughed lightly to his embarrassment and his ears which turned red.
" Today's your interview. Are you nervous?" he asked her to change the topic.
When he asked her, she realized that she was indeed nervous. She was pretending to be confident but in reality, she was dying of nervousness.
Though she has memories of real Xie Ming, however, she does not have first-hand experience of it. And she has never faced this kind of situation. It was the first time that she will step out of her house to work in the outer world.
She may be Empress who had the duty to manage the Harem but after getting married she never stepped out of the palace. After being enclosed inside the palace, she was nervous while going out to work.
...
When she heard his question, the forgotten nervousness hit her again. She breathed heavily.
Liwei looked at her face and she was nervous. He was amused seeing her this nervous.
'Doesn't this woman stayed abroad for so long. And she was excellent in her field. So why is she so nervous for just an interview?' he thought to himself while looking at her confusingly.
Then he extended his hand and took her hands in his and looked into her eyes and said, " Don't be nervous. I know you will pass this interview without any help. I believe in you." he said with seriousness.
When Xie Ming heard his words she felt her heartwarming. These words, ' I believe in you' mattered a lot to her. Before when she tried to find trust in the eyes of that man, but all she saw was doubt in his eyes at that time.
The only thing that she wants in her relationship was trust. But when she didn't get the trust that she deserved, she felt heartbroken.
And now, the man in front of him said the words that she wanted to hear the most. She felt his sincerity. She looked into his eyes and slightly nodded controlling the urge to cry.
Seeing her forced smile, and controlling the urge to cry, made her face look ugly. Her forced smile was far uglier than crying.
Seeing her expression, he chuckled softly. Then he ruffled her hair and gestured her to eat her food.
