novelLunch Meeting
| ← Ch.144 | Ch.146 → |
As Jin Liwei gave Gu Shao a death glare, Xie Ming looked towards Gu Shao and he was almost on the stage of crying due to Liwei's coldness.
Xie Ming sighed and held Liwei's arm and asked, " You have a meeting right now? Then go to the meeting, I'll go home. See you at home." as she said her words, she turned to return.
But Liwei stretched his hand and held her arm.
Xie Ming turned to look at him and blinked her eyes in question.
Liwei looked at her and said, " Come with me."
Xie Ming looked at her, cannot understand the situation, " Eh? Where?"
" To the meeting. It's a lunch meeting. You must not have had lunch yet. So let's go together." he said without blinking an eye.
Whereas Gu Shao was shocked.
' Sir, it's a lunch meeting. Not a party where you can bring Madam with you. ' he thought while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
But he didn't dare to say any words now. Otherwise, Liwei would kill him this time.
Hearing Liwei's words, Xie Ming doesn't know should she laugh or cry.
" How can I go to the meeting? I won't be of any help there. And I can't understand anything, so keep me out of it."
" Why? You had studied business. You're very well in this field, and the S company is a fashion company."
" And you're very much interested in fashion. Didn't you? " he asked her.
After waking up from the coma, he had Gu Shao to find every detail of Xie Ming in abroad and here before marriage.
He found that she was interested in fashion when she was abroad. She was even planning to open her brand after coming to S country, but life has some other plans.
Her knowledge of fashion is no joke. She has interned under many great designers, not only that, she has once walked on a ramp for a designer.
He was impressed by her work. But she didn't pursue it further after coming to S country.
He had checked her work details when she insisted on working in the entertainment industry.
...
Xie Ming looked at him with a bewildered expression.
Yes. She knows that the ' real' Xie Ming was a pro in fashion and would even get higher recognition if she has done business in the fashion industry.
But she was not Xie Ming. She was Zhao Ming.
She can just get herself dressed properly and does not know the fashion industry.
Yes. She has Xie Ming's memories, but memories can't give her the talent in that field.
She can use her memory just to dress and get adjusted to this world.
But she has no idea about fashion.
If she went to this meeting, she would only sit there like a mannequin.
She looked at him awkwardly. She can't deny that she didn't study business or knew about fashion, because if she said that then how would she explain that?
' I wish I would have pretended to have amnesia for long. That way I could easily avoid this kind of problem. But what now?'
" Yes. But I just finished my audition and I don't want to attend your meeting right now. I am tired and hungry and..." Liwei cut her words in between by grabbing her hand and pulling towards the door.
He grabbed and pulled her with him and said, " Inform Mr. Wu that we will arrive on time. And I am bringing my wife, so he can also bring his wife. So that Xie Ming won't get bored in the meeting." he said to Gu Shao without even looking at Xie Ming.
She was on the verge of crying.
' I don't want to go' she cried in her heart.
Gu Shao looked at Liwie and thought ' Sir, this was a meeting. Not a double date, where you're asking the other party to bring their wife as well. ' he shook his head and went to make a call.
Meanwhile, Liwei and Xie Ming were already at the entrance of the Jin Corporations.
In front of the office, the car was waiting for them.
Liwei helped Xie Ming to settle in the car and then also followed her in.
Xie Ming was rummaging her head to find any excuses just to avoid this lunch. She doesn't want to be questioned about any fashion thing, because she doesn't know anything.
Because most of the brands and other things were in the language which is foreign to her.
She cursed Xie Ming in her heart, ' Why this girl has to learn so many languages. Can't she do with the only one. Not only that, she has to study business as well as fashion. Ahh, what to do. '
After Gu Shao came making a call, he informed Liwei that Mr Wu has agreed to this arrangement.
At that time, Xie Ming felt a great headache. Mr. Wu was her only hope, that if he rejected this arrangement then she will find some excuse but now, nothing can stop Liwei.
She sighed.
Liwei signaled Gu Shao to start the car.
Liwei turned towards Xie Ming whose face has lost its color. He thought that it was because she failed the auditions.
He didn't ask her about the result and she didn't get the time to explain what happened today.
So he just assumed that she must have failed that's why she came to the office, to talk with him.
That was the reason he took Xie Ming for the lunch meeting with him because if she has stayed home alone, she must feel worse.
He didn't want to leave her alone at this moment. He will accompany her in her worse.
He doesn't want to do the same mistake what he did back then when he ignored her feelings and led her to attempt suicide.
He looked at her and stretched his hand to keep on her shoulder.
He pulled her towards him and smiled at her.
Xie Ming looked up and awkwardly smile, and thought ' I am doomed. I just hope, they let me eat peacefully, without talking to me. I don't want Liwei to be embarrassed in the meeting because of me. ' she sighed.
