Chapter Sixteen

Translated by trungtnguyen123

Li Wei Ran quickly recovered from his fever. It was nearly the end of the year and Chen Yu Bai ordered Li Wei Ran to hurry up and start managing the IT company. Li Wei Ran didn’t want to go to work straight after he just regained his health, but he couldn’t refuse Chen Yu Bai’s order.

Qin Sang was forced to request two weeks leave from her workplace, because Li Wei Ran didn’t want to be separated from her a single minute. She went to help him with the handover of management at his new workplace and they were inseparable.

Suddenly the IT company’s employees felt their workplace was lively during the first two weeks of the change in management. Their former CEO Chen and his ‘little dummy’ were joined at the hip and the new CEO Li brought along with him a ‘flower vase.’ It seemed to the employees that the little dummy and flower vase were really close too. The employees were also unanimous that the saying ‘birds of a feather flock together’ was true.

But none of the employees knew that even though CEO Chen and the flower vase validated ‘birds of a feather flock together,’ they didn’t see eye to eye. No matter if they only met each other once in a blue moon, they’d exchange sharp daggers with one another if they were in the same room together.

Chen Yu Bai glared icily at Qin Sang the ‘tigress’ and closed the file he was reading. ‘If you interfere with Xiao Li’s private matters again, I’ll take it out on your Wei Ran.’

Chen Yu Bai was unhappy that the plans he envisioned were led astrayed in a different direction. He wasn’t pleased that the tigress easily persuaded his little dummy with a few words, he didn’t doubt that the tigress was the one ‘directing’ his little dummy to divert his plans he envisioned for him and his little dummy.

Qin Sang didn’t take Chen Yu Bai’s threat to heart. ‘Do you want to guess what happens if you take it out on my Wei Ran? If I’ll push Xiao Li in Chu Hao Ran’s direction or not?’

‘You-dare?’ Chen Yu Bai asked coldly through gritted teeth.

‘You-can-try-for-yourself!’ Qin Sang threatened.

Two violent people who met up with each other, gave An Xiao Li a shock. An Xiao Li’s work day was busy and when she came back to work from a quick break was shocked speechless by the scene she witnessed in a spacious and quiet hallway – her man and her accomplice together. Little Bai closed a file and was handsome as the sky was high. Qin Sang held a fragrant cup of coffee and Qin Sang’s beauty glowed a wide distance. Little Bai and Qin Sang were staring at each other, without speaking a word and they stood close together in a spacious and quiet hallway.

An Xiao Li felt a rush of jealousy and was about to open her mouth but after she stepped closer to them, she froze and couldn’t say anything – it wasn’t good, there was a murderous aura given off by little Bai and Qin Sang.

‘The two of you… are fighting with each other?’ An Xiao Li asked weakly.

Little Bai and Qin Sang were glaring at each other and snorted. Little Bai pushed his glasses up, Qin Sang flicked her hair and pursed her lips. The two of them gave each other a parting sharp dagger before they split up. Little Bai stepped toward An Xiao Li and Qin Sang held her cup of coffee and stepped inside Li Wei Ran’s new office.

An Xiao Li tugged little Bai’s shirt sleeve. ‘Were you and Sang Sang fighting?’

‘I don’t like that girl,’ Chen Yu Bai said coldly.

An Xiao Li nodded her head as though she understood perfectly. ‘Um. I understand. The same kind of species should stay away from each other.’

Chen Yu Bai was prepared to explain to Xiao Li why Qin Sang was a tigress who Xiao Li should distance herself from. But Miss dummy’s way of thinking differed to others, she didn’t asked him why he didn’t like Qin Sang, because she had her own way of thinking even though it was a weird way.

But the reality was Chen Yu Bai knew his little dummy had her own kingdom that was richer than anyone. He let go of his plans to break apart her and the tigress. He helplessly rubbed Xiao Li’s head, as long as she liked the tigress, he’d accept it.

‘Xiao Li, you’re really good so you don’t need to ask Qin Sang for advice, you know?’ Chen Yu Bai said tactfully after careful thought.

In that moment An Xiao Li’s heart was only set on little Bai going downstairs to buy her sweet desserts so she nodded her head and went along with anything he said.

The following day Li Wei Ran racked his head to find a foster home for his darling husky. Qin Sang hated dogs and cats, whereas he loved dogs and cats but not as much as he loved Qin Sang. His first brother wasn’t a viable choice, because Gu Yan was allergic to dogs and cats like his sixth brother. His second brother and fourth brother switched off their phones… so he drove his husky to his third brother’s house.

When Li Wei Ran and his husky arrived at his third brother’s house, he didn’t know if his feeling of gratefulness surpassed his feeling of awkwardness from being a third wheel. His third sister-in-law disregarded him the moment she saw his husky. She bear gripped his third brother’s throat, kissed his third brother and begged his third brother at the same time to let his husky stay at his third brother’s house.

Li Wei Ran knew his third brother was putting on an act of annoyance being clung onto by his third sister-in-law, but on the inside his third brother was really happy. It was just hard for him to adjust to the new Chen Yu Bai, because in the past he’d never seen Chen Yu Bai allowed anyone to get that close the way An Xiao Li was close to Chen Yu Bai.

Chen Yu Bai admitted to himself that he was eerily similar to Qin Sang in one aspect – he didn’t care much for animals apart from humans. But Miss dummy was happy enough to jump on him and shower him with kisses that he didn’t have the heart to tell his fifth brother to take that dog and scram far away.

Chen Yu Bai was unhappy that dog only licked Xiao Li’s palm and it made her happy like crazy. A moment ago she was hugging him, but she quickly switched from hugging him to that dog. ‘Wow! Little Bai, let’s give it a name!’

It was evident Chen Yu Bai had no interest naming that dog. He still had contracts he wanted to discuss with Li Wei Ran through webcam, but it was good that Li Wei Ran came to his door and they could discuss it in person.

‘What about calling it little Black?’ Li Wei Ran suggested.

Little Bai gave Li Wei Ran a murderous look and Li Wei Ran didn’t dare to utter a sound.

Li Wei Ran obediently followed little Bai to the study room, but Li Wei Ran turned back and mouthed to An Xiao Li – ‘Call it Seven Up.’

In the afternoon Qin Sang cooked a hearty lunch for Li Wei Ran but he brought back three extra strays for lunch. She cooked sweet and sour pork ribs, soy bean cakes and fish dishes that he liked.

Li Wei Ran was in a tug a war using chopsticks with Rong Yan to get the last rib. Unexpectedly, Chen Yu Bai pushed his glasses up and stole the last rib off them.

‘Little Bai, don’t you know how to save the best for me?’ An Xiao Li asked in a frustrated tone.

Chen Yu Bai licked the corner of his lips. ‘Um, want to eat?’

Chen Yu Bai’s shady tone made three people at the dining table wanted to yell ‘get a room.’

After lunch, Chen Yu Bai drove himself and Xiao Li back home.

Unlike the chilly weather outside, inside the car was toasty warm. Xiao Li played a song that he didn’t know the name of, it was sang in a low key. She sang along to the song in a way that made his usual cold heart, melt a little.

‘Did the two of you know each other since you were kids?’ Chen Yu Bai asked?

‘Um. We were born on the same day at the same hospital! I’m older than her by two hours,’ An Xiao Li said and laughed. ‘But it’s always her that’s protecting me.’

‘Actually Sang Sang isn’t that hard to get close to as most people think. She’s just sees clearly the difference between a friend and a person who’s passing by. So she doesn’t keep many friends. When she was a kid she wasn’t like how she is now. She changed in the third grade. Her dad came and took her away and that’s when she started to become the cold Sang Sang, yikes…’ An Xiao Li said too much and stopped talking before she blabbed uncontrollably.

‘What is it?’ Chen Yu Bai asked.

‘Mmm… Qin Sang doesn’t like me talking about her childhood to outsiders,’ An Xiao Li said.

Chen Yu Bai used his free hand to hold Xiao Li’s hand and spoke gently to her. ‘Am I an outsider?’

An Xiao Li was seduced by little Bai’s handsome looks and gentle tone – she blabbed uncontrollably. ‘Sang San and I grew up in the same hometown. She didn’t have a dad when she was a kid but she was a bubbly kid. Our teachers referred to us as the rare couple. Then one day, a fancy car came and took her away. I cried until I died and came back to life. Even Miss Chen couldn’t stop me crying a waterfall. It wasn’t until when I was older that I heard someone say that her mum, Miss Ye was once a rich playboy’s lover. Miss Ye secretly gave birth to Sang Sang. When Sang Sang’s dad found out, he wanted to acknowledge Sang Sang as his daughter.’

Chen Yu Bai glanced at the black night sky above the road and smiled – fifth brother was doomed.
