New Life : A Second Chance

Chapter 488 - Xing Han: Positions Changing

Xing Han found that the twins were always there for him at the work place, which made learning much more fun.

They hung out together during mealtimes, causing people to stop and stare at them all the time. Xing Han took it that it was because the twins were such an eyecatching scene. After all, they were very good looking and striking - and there were two of them!

Little did he know that everyone knew how unapproachable the twins were.

They were not antagonistic, but just … not sociable.

Yet, they were hanging out with this unknown person, who appeared to be quite close to the Big Boss.

Slowly, Xing Han's standing at the company rose.

All of Nitocris's men had a tacit agreement.

No one messes with Xing Han.

Xing Han is to be protected.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how Xing Han became Black Dragon's Protected Species.

While the one being protected was oblivious to it all.

However, there was one thing he was slowly starting to find quite unsettling.

The fact that Nitocris was extremely popular.

Sure, when one thought about it, it was quite obvious.

Nitocris had it all.

Looks? He had that dark, brooding look down pat on that chiseled features of his.

Physique? He had that firm, muscular toned body that Xing Han already had the privilege to see.

Wealth? Obviously, considering he is the boss of this huge place.

Xing Han sighed.

He had been around handsome, rich dudes all his life so why was this little fact so bothersome to him?

It's not like he was feeling inadequate.

He couldn't quite put his finger on it.

And another thing.

That secretary of Nitocris. Iris.

Initially, Xing Han thought she was a nice, hot girl.

Now, she was an annoying hot girl.

She would be friendly and extra sweet to him, but it was mainly to get into Nitocris's good books.

She was his secretary, for goodness sake!

It wasn't that he was looking down on her for being a secretary, but rather, he was of the firm belief that one should always be professional at work.

Gossip and stuff?

It wasn't that Xing Han thought such things do not happen at work, but rather, it should be well contained. People will be people, and humans need drama.

All of that should be done behind closed doors!

You can have all the internal strife you want, but you must never bring it out to the open for outsiders to see.

To Xing Han, he was an outsider here so Iris should not be cozying up to him to get into Nitocris's pants!

It was starting to get very old, very fast.

But what could he do to stop it? She was Nitocris's secretary and an efficient one, too.

Just this one habit of her got him gnashing his teeth all the time.

So much so that Nitocirs actually noticed it.

"Just what is wrong with you?" Nitocris finally asked, looking at the obviously angry puppy.

He looked like one who had his back rubbed the wrong way. The way he sat there, studying the reports with his entire body seemingly on edge.

Xing Han sighed and put down the pen that he used to jot down some notes.

"Nitocris," Xing Han began, his voice sending shivers down Nitocris's spine. Just the way his little puppy called his name would make him smile.

A smile that he never showed, of course.

"How would you handle the situation when an efficient employee of yours was causing discomfort towards another person? And that person was not related to your company at all?"

Xing Han leaned back, "It's not sexual harassment at the workplace, and the other person has no bearing to the workforce at all."

Nitocris's eyes narrowed.

He could read between the lines very well.

Who had made his little puppy uncomfortable?

"This efficient employee is quite indispensable to the company," Xing Han mused, "So it's not an easy thing to settle, is it?"

"There's not enough information in that scenario," Nitocris replied, "To me, the only indispensable people are Yuri and Zack," Nitocris replied, "And if that 'other person with no bearing' truly was a complete stranger, it's a no brainer."

"However, if that person happened to be my beloved, then it's also a no brainer who would win," Nitocris said.

"Yuri and Zack?" Xing Han said, "After all, they help run the company to the way it is. It's not easy to find a capable assistant like them."

"Yes, but it's harder to find your soulmate as well," Nitocris said, "They have to get along. If they do not, then Yuri and Zack will go."

"But that is not right!" Xing Han protested, "What if that girl happens to be a useless person?"

"Are you judging my taste?" Nitocris growled, his eyes narrowing.

"Well, I don't know your taste," Xing Han replied, "Just look at Kyle. He's gorgeous and all, but so far, all he's attracted are these psycho girls and guys."

"You. Compare. Me. With. Kyle?" Nitocris continued dangerously.

"Why not? He knows a lot of things too, you know," Xing Han continued, "He taught me a lot of things. He even taught me how to kiss."

"He did what?!"

"Yup, yup," Xing Han said, nodding as he sorted the paper on his desk, "Good thing he did, too. I was hopeless. Made him kiss me just to show me how it's done."

Then he pursued his lips, "But he wouldn't teach me how to French kiss. Pah. 'It will come naturally', he said. Like, really?"

Xing Han snorted, then looked up in surprise to see Nitocris there.

"Wha-"

His lips were sealed instantly by Nitocris's lips. Xing Han felt Nitocris's tongue slid through his open lips and teeth, and started a long, slow exploration inside his mouth.

Xing Han's mind exploded.
