[This chapter is dedicated to Princess_Heny_San for being a silent reader who is suddenly commenting last month of May! ^^ I hope to see more of your comments soon! :D]
***
Wang Lei and Yu Yan were now doing their usual business. However now, it was busier than it was hours ago, making them focus on the papers that they are holding.
There were a lot of documents that Yu Yan was fixing, making sure that they are arranged properly so she could give these files to Wang Lei without having any problems.
Wang Lei, on the other hand, made sure that he was skimming through the papers efficiently so when he signs, he wouldn\'t commit any mistakes.
Both of them had furrowed brows on their faces, making Yu Yan do a little stretch for a while and noticing that the clock in the office showed that it\'s already three in the afternoon, making her look at her boss discreetly from the corner of her eyes.
Wang Lei is seated on his office chair, signing the documents stacked on his desk. As for Yu Yan, she was sitting on the white leather couch of his office, continuing to sort the papers that are on the coffee table.
As she was secretly watching Wang Lei, she couldn\'t help but notice that there is something different in Wang Lei\'s demeanor.
Usually he would procrastinate at this time and be playful, already looking at girls for Yu Yan to search so she could give him their numbers until the boss chose his "target."
With him not asking this from her for a while now, Yu Yan had a subtle smile appearing on her face, now continuing to sort the papers that are in front of her.
She couldn\'t help but notice that Wang Lei now is more responsible than how he was days ago. It made her think if their recent interaction with each other had made him change this way?
It just started in a few days. He was suddenly curious about her and then even wanted to visit her house for him to understand what was meant by her words.
She is still internally laughing by the fact that Wang Lei thought that there was a man waiting for her at home when Yu Yan only meant that no one could break her icy heart because she already has her little mooncake!
With a little giggle escaping from her lips, the silence in the room had made Wang Lei hear her voice, making him look at his secretary, arching a brow at her as she slightly disrupted his spontaneity.
"What\'s wrong, Yu Yan?" he asked, the secretary, covering her mouth with her hand, shaking her head.
"No, nothing. I\'m sorry," she immediately apologized, now looking at the documents in hand as her smile still hadn\'t left her face. "I was only thinking of my son, Mr. Wang Lei. I wonder what he would think—living in probably such a great and big house."
With that, Wang Lei smiled as he continued skimming the document in his hand.
"Oh, if he\'ll be happy, I think he\'d want to check out the garden. It\'s so wide—you two can play there while your mother is having tea for relaxation."
"Oh, really!?"
Yu Yan\'s eyes twinkled like stars, Wang Lei, taken aback to see such beauty.
He has never seen Yu Yan smile so beautifully like this ever before—heck, he had not seen any woman smile this happily before!
There is indeed something different behind Yu Yan\'s smile. He knows that it is not just a common person who is capable of making her show this beautiful smile.
He knows that it will take someone special for them to bring out Yu Yan\'s best smile.
In this case, Yu Yan\'s pride and joy is her Li Jie, making Wang Lei wonder if there would be other people such as her son that is capable of making Yu Yan smile like it has been blessed specifically to her from the Heavens.
"My little mooncake likes to run, Mr. Wang Lei," Yu Yan started, breaking her boss from his stupor. "Not that he is destructive, no… he just likes to dash—he\'s quite the active little boy! This will help me release his pent up energy so he\'s knocked out for his naps and sleep, yeah?"
With that said, Yu Yan couldn\'t help but giggle as she went on and on about Li Jie, Wang Lei, not minding how Yu Yan is being a chatter-box right now.
With him propping a hand under his chin as he listened to his secretary ramble about Li Jie with such a bubbly expression, he couldn\'t help but smile, feeling how much Yu Yan loves the little boy.
"Oh, my mooncake. He\'s really smart and creative! Sometimes, he asks such questions that I can\'t answer," Yu Yan said, making Wang Lei not leave his eyes from her.
"Oh? Like what?"
"The common ones you hear, Mr. Wang Lei," Yu Yan started, letting out a soft chuckle. "Why the sky is blue, why the blue in the sea is blue and why the water in the house is colorless."
With Yu Yan now humming to herself as she stopped talking about Li Jie for a moment, Wang Lei watched her, her sweet smile not leaving her face as she continued doing her job.
Yu Yan is indeed unique. She is efficient in her job, she is a loving mother to a son whose father is irresponsible.
She is indeed a strong woman to have raised her son with the help of her mother. It\'s good that Li Jie is a good boy at such a young age despite his father being so irresponsible.
Other than that, only did it occur to him now that Yu Yan is indeed attractive, making him notice and wonder why he hasn\'t taken a fancy to her?
Maybe because she is his secretary—and the possibility of it happening is not likely.
Or was it because… he was busy frolicking with other women?
Shaking himself from his own thoughts, he focused on reading the other remaining documents after he signed the one that he was holding, heaving a little sigh as he pushed Yu Yan\'s attractiveness aside, not wanting to take advantage of her like how he did with the other girls he met.
Yu Yan doesn\'t deserve such treatment—he knows this well. She\'s a wonderful woman and a strong one. He wouldn\'t want to disrespect her.
