We Are Meant To Be

James Feng stood by and looked at Christy Zhong. She sorted methodically though the papers, just as he did.

He was relieved and thought that she was worth teaching. Then he said, "Well, keep in mind the work already done." He wanted to urge her to work efficiently.

Only in this way could she accumulate working experience and improve working skill.

"Yes, Master Feng." Christy answered. She respected and loved him very much. It was a big deal to her and made her feel warm.

James returned to the office and continued his work.

They shared one office and did something by themselves. They made eye contact once in a while.

Christy felt sweet. She thought that James must had feelings for her. He was not a stone-hearted man.

However, in the office next door, Junyan Zhang tidied up the desk after Christy left, and quickly went out of the room. Now that James said she need a rest, why work so hard.

Thought about James's coldness, Junyan decided to hide her love. She must learn to give up him decently.

With Christy at James's side, Junyan thought that she had better gave the job to Christy. That might be the best way for three of them.

But before Junyan left, she knocked at James's door and stood quietly in the doorway, "Master Feng, I'm off duty now. If you need anything just give me a call."

After all these years, she already thought of the company as home. Any time, if need, she would repliy quickly.

Now she had to change the habit. It was not easy but she had made up her mind.

When James heard, he raised his voice and said tonelessly, "OK." That was his reply.

Christy thought of Junyan when she was working. James was truly a blessed man. With Junyan at his side, James would certainly get on well with his work. Junyan was a woman of great ability. When Christy thought about this, she decided to treat Junyan well. Either way, she should be grateful to Junyan.

James was doing his own work. He lifted his head occasionally and saw Christy seemed worried about something.

Somehow James became tense at her unstable state. He was rather anxious about her, he wanted her to become stronger.

"What's behind you?" asked James suddenly. Christy got a fright and looked up.

She replied immediately, "Nothing, I'm thinking about my work. Chief secretary Zhang is a very excellent person. I want to learn from her."

Hearing those words, James snorted and thought that if so, it sounded all right.

From the work perspective, Junyan was actually worth learning from.

"You can learn from her. You will surely do a good job if you can learn some skills." said James coldly. He just wanted to remind her to keep a clear head all the time.

James looked unhappy and stared at Christy, "There you are. What did I tell you? You call me Master Feng in the official situations and call my name when we are alone or at home." Husband and wife should have equal status in the family if they wanted to build and sustain a strong and lasting partnership.

Christy could hardly say it. But finally she said timidly, "I hope you don't mind me calling you brother Chen."

This word seemed perfectly acceptable for her. It felt warm and that was what she wanted.

James looked at her without speaking. She could do anything if she wanted to. He wanted Christy to be close to him.

James seemed to agree with her. Then Christy screwed up her courage and said softly, "Brother Chen, is this OK?" After saying this, she blushed with embarrassment.

Christy felt weird to chase a man. But she was well aware of the fact that she could step out of her ego.

Christy seemed embarrassed, so James looked at her and said playfully, "You should be more gentle."

Really, was he serious? Christy suddenly came over all shy. She ducked her head to hide her rosy cheeks and whispered, "Brother Chen, would it be too strange?" What a silly girl she was! James snorted coldly, "Just say it."

Christy got in a daze and cried immediately, "Yes, Master Feng. Oh, no, brother Feng."

It was just a name. Why was he so mean? But Christy couldn't argue with that.

"You call me this from now now. Try again." James became interested and teased Christy. "Well, brother Chen," she called his name again with her head bowed and face flushed.
