66 Planning to deal with the interference

Anna Jones, while Hou Yi was speaking to her boss Stan Williams in Australia, used her laptop and logged into ANX Lawyers legal system.In quickly reviewing the documents already uploaded, she realised that this was going to take a few days to deal with, as they were complex.

After Hou Yi ended the call, she turned to him "This is going to take a couple of days.Damn.I had other plans, as I need to relax with everything that has happened, and start to deal with you know what.."

Hou Yi responded "I know that you did.It is what it is.There is little that we can do tonight, we will just have to deal with it tomorrow."

He paused, turned to Assistant Wang, and said "Can you arrange for Anna to work within the legal department to enable her to deal with the matter.Explain that she works for our Australian Legal Firm, and his here to deal with specific matters.She can, for public consumption report to you, and you will control her access to me, however as she need to she can come in and out of my office.Most importantly, no one is to be told her connection to me.Thank you, and feel free to go home."

"Not a problem Sir.I will see both of you tomorrow."With that Assistant Wang, left the study.

As soon as the door was shut, Hou Yi in frustration said "Damn the Lu's.It could only be them, as they have found out that they are not getting Hou Enterprises as they thought.Why in the world have they done this?It makes no sense.Everyone knows that we ticked all the boxes here for this development, and they were checked twice before we even went ahead."

"Calm down Hou Yi.Let me deal with the legal matters for you."

"I just thought, have they been told I have married, without your name being revealed, and they are using this as a means to try and get some petty revenge as they did not get the company?"

"It could be.Do not worry.Your wife is one hell of a lawyer, and I will deal with it."

Before they could continue any further, there was a knock on the door "Young Master, the dinner that Young Madam requested is ready, in the informal dining room.How long will you be so I can arrange for it to be served."

"Give us 5 minutes", Hou Yi called out.

With that, Anna logged out of the legal programs, the email and closed down her laptop.She carefully packed that and her tablet up, with their cords, to take into Hou Enterprises in the morning.Once they were packed, she handed the bag to Hou Yi "Can you place this where we will not forget it in the morning."Hou Yi, realised that his briefcase was sitting beside the desk, and placed the bag with it.Anna collected her handbag, and the door was locked behind them.

Hou Yi escorted Anna, past the formal dining room, into another room just down a corridor from it.When they entered, the table was set romantically for the two of them.Just as Hou Yi helped Anna sit down, another door into the room opened, and in came a man dressed in a chef's uniform entered "Young Master, Young Madam, just to let you know tonight's meal, in honour of Young Madam, will be a western inspired meal, with Asian twists.The first course is a Chicken and Sweet Corn Soup, the second course, will be steak and Asian inspired salads, and for dessert there will be pavlova's with Strawberries and Cream.A red wine has been chosen to accompany the steak and champagne will be provided with dessert.Young Madam, how will you prefer your steak cooked?"

"Medium-rare to Medium, please"

"Thank you.Your first course will be out in a couple of minutes, and the main course 15 minutes later.As dessert is not hot, it can be served whenever you request.Once you finish, I will arrange for the bottle of champagne to be taken to your suite.I understand that Butler Ge as arranged for a small fridge with milk , as well as wine and other drinks and tea/coffee supplies to be placed in your suite, so you do not have to feel as we will interrupt you.Young Madam, please let me know at any time if there is a particular item that you want added to these, so that when I arrange shopping I can add this to the shopping.

"Thank you", replied Hou Yi.With that they settled in to eat their meal, and around an hour later, they left the dining room, and went upstairs to their suite.

As soon as the door was closed behind them, Anna dropped her handbag on a table, turned to Hou Yi, and quietly said "You have completely gone overboard.I agreed to some displays of affection, but you have completely gone over the top…"

At that time there was a knock on the door, with a female voice calling out "Young Master, Young Madam, Butler Ge requested that I bring you some Champagne."With that Hou Yi turned and opened the door directing the maid where to put the champagne, and she left.

As soon as the door was closed, Hou Yi turned "I had no damn idea when you were on the phone whether you were on speaker or not, so I had to act as if someone could hear the conversation.As to the in person displays, think about it.We are presenting an image to the staff that we cannot in private keep our hands off each other, me touching you, kissing you, pulling you onto my lap, is all about selling the story.Grow up.Tell me how we could otherwise sell it?"

Hou Yi paused and took a breath before he became too angry and Anna.

He continued "Just messing up the room each morning before staff come in, will not work, if there is no affection visible outside this room.I know Yang Lin has bluffed some of the staff as to her personality, and they will not like that you are my wife.If we cannot sell it, she will hear about it, giving them ammunition.So what is your idea to sell what we need to sell, at least for a few weeks, when staff will have accepted we have fallen into a normal married relationship?"

"…"

"I figured you would have no idea on what to do.Forget it.Let us simply go to bed.Ladies first for a shower.When you finish, leave your dirty clothes where I can access them when I finish.I am going to set the clothes up, as if we could not wait to get into the shower together for the staff to find in the morning."
