“Dad... I’m sure he will treat me well. Don’t worry!”

Lin Wen Xin knew that even though Lin Gao Hai had arranged this marriage for her, he also cared about her happiness and did not want her to feel wronged in any way.

Lin Gao Hai knew about the story of her first love in high school. But for some reasons, Lin Wen Xin did not want to share with Lin Gao Hai tonight that the boy she loves, is actually Wang Shen Ze.

She felt that somehow, it was not the right time to share this piece of news. Especially when she saw how Wang Shen Ze was indifferent to her earlier at the charity auction event.

After a few moments of silence, Lin Wen Xin said, “Dad... there is something that I will share with you, but... now is not the right time to do so...”

“Mmm it’s okay, Dad understands. Share with me when the time is right.” Lin Gao Hai gave Lin Wen Xin an assuring smile.

Lin Wen Xin was naturally touched by what Lin Gao Hai said, and felt as though a burden has been lifted off her shoulders.

Lin Gao Hai has always been understanding towards Lin Wen Xin and respected her. He has never forced her to say or do anything that are against her wishes.

Lin Gao Hai knew that even though Lin Wen Xin is still considered young in his heart, she has always been very clear of what she wanted and is able to make her own decisions independently.

As a father, he has always felt that he is lacking in so many ways and have not done enough for Lin Wen Xin.

Even though he has tried his best to provide all that he could for her, it would never be able to fully replace the loss of Lin Wen Xin’s mother and grandparents whom she was close with.

“Wen Xin, Granny Wang has invited us out for dinner next week. Will you be free? She wants to discuss details about your marriage with Shen Ze.”

“Alright, I will make time for it. Just let me know the time and location.” Lin Wen Xin replied.

“Okay, that’s good! Then have a good rest tonight. You still have work the next morning.”

“Yes dad, you too. Have a good rest!”

...

The Next Morning, At Lin Corporation

Lin Wen Xin walked quickly into the office’s lobby. She has just started her designer job few weeks ago and is still considered to be a new employee.

She was already late the previous time and she definitely can’t be late again today!

Even though this company is owned by her father, Lin Gao Hai, she had pleaded him to not disclose her as his daughter.

This means that Lin Wen Xin could not take her father’s car to the company and have to squeeze in with other commuters on the bus and train.

She wanted her father to treat her just like any other employee in the company.

She wanted to climb up the ranks in the company and build her career with her own effort.

As such, she had went through the formal interview process in the company and proceeded to be selected as the lowest ranking fashion designer in the company.

Lin Wen Xin had always been the best fashion design student in university, and have submitted many outstanding work.

She had also received several awards and her classmates even crowned her with a nickname “Queen of Fashion”.

Lin Wen Xin panted, as she took the lift up to the 10th floor of the office.

“Lin Wen Xin!!”

Lin Wen Xin froze and shut her eyes tightly as she heard Sister Fei Yi’s loud voice from across the office.

How embarrassing! Who knows how many people are staring at her right now!

Lin Wen Xin slowly opened her eyes and walked towards Sister Fei Yi’s desk.

“Sister Fei Yi... Sorry, I am a minute late...”

“You actually know that you are late! Wasn’t my warning to you the previous time enough?!”

“Don’t think that your surname is Lin, I will let you go! Let me tell you, even if your grandfather owns this company, as long as I am here, I can make you quit!”

There are 2 teams in the fashion design department. Sister Fei Yi is the leader of Team A.

It is said that you could offend anyone in the design department, except for Sister Fei Yi.

She has connections with people from every department of the company. And whatever she asks for, she gets them!

She has always been a perfectionist at work, and would never accept any designs less than that.

No doubt, she is the most outstanding employee in the company.

Even though she is strict with her team of designers and often appears to be unreasonable with her words, people who knows her personally could see her genuine love and care for everyone.

She is also well-known to be a motherly figure in the team, which explains why everyone calls her “Sister Fei Yi”.

Lin Wen Xin walked back to her desk, feeling dejected.

Because she was late for work this morning, Sister Fei Yi shortened her design draft’s deadline from a week to three days!

This means that she would definitely need to burn midnight oil when she gets home!

How frustrating!

Lin Wen Xin had no time to waste and she immediately started on her draft. Soon, it was time for lunch.

The colleagues in the department have asked Lin Wen Xin along for lunch, but she politely declined their offer, and told them to go ahead without her.

“Ring ring...” Lin Wen Xin’s phone rang shortly after her colleagues have left.

Since there was no one else in the office, she immediately switched on the hands free mode on her phone and continued to work on her draft at the same time.

“Hello, Yu Meng... What’s the matter?”

“Miss Wen Xin... Do you know what time is it now? Don’t tell me that you are still working? Are you that short of money?” Xiao Yu Meng asked mockingly.

“Hurry up and come down, I will wait for you downstairs!” Xiao Yu Meng then ended the call without waiting for Lin Wen Xin’s reply.

Lin Wen Xin could only sigh helplessly. Who called Xiao Yu Meng to be her best friend since high school? If it was someone else, she would not hesitate to ignore the invitation.

If she were to choose someone who had gone through thick and thin with her over the past six years, it would only be Xiao Yu Meng.

Even though Xiao Yu Meng has a rough and boyish appearance and personality, she is still able to get along well with Lin Wen Xin, who is completely opposite of her.

Actually to call Xiao Yu Meng as her best friend? That’s an understatement! More accurately, she is already a part of Wen Xin’s family.

...

In DT Holdings

“Knock knock...”

“Come in.” Wang Shen Ze commanded in a cold voice.

“President Wang, these are the company’s financial reports for the past 8 months that you have requested for during the meeting this morning.” Yi Fan reported to Wang Shen Ze.

“Put it over there and leave.” Wang Shen Ze did not look up but replied coldly, while resuming his signing on some important documents.

Yi Fan swiftly walked over to the table and placed the documents down.

“President Wang, the investigator have some news for you”

Wang Shen Ze’s hand stiffened for a moment. He placed his Montblanc fountain pen down on the table and looked at Yi Fan.

    “Speak!”Yi Fan quickly reported, “The girl’s identity has been found. But the investigator still needs some time to arrange for her to meet up with you.”“I will give him another two weeks! Nothing more than that!”“Yes, President Wang. I understand.” Yi Fan bowed slightly.“Leave!” Yi Fan received Wang Shen Ze’s order and left the office immediately. In the office, Wang Shen Ze stood in front of the large glass windows and stared at the view.Since his office building is the tallest in the capital, he seems to have everything under his grasp and could only look down at the people beneath his feet.He could make millions of dollars in every few hours. He has the power to make any company collapse within a night. But why is it that he could not even find his little girl?Where is she? How has she been?Has she bee

Lin Wen Xin then went on to greet the rest of the elders present and took the seat beside Lin Gao Hai. Tonight, the elders of the Wang Family are all present - Granny Wang, Wang Li Xun and Xu Jia Li. Wang Yi Ning was invited to join them, but was unable to make it due to the filming of her new drama. “Wen Xin, I have picked an auspicious date for the wedding.

His bloodshot eyes stared straight into her eyes as he coldly spat out these words, “Don’t you dare to call me that again!”“You? Heh...” Wang Shen Ze sneered as he looked away for a second before looking straight into her eyes once again.He raised his eyebrows and looked down at her condescendingly.Wang Shen Ze enunciated each word with a cold and mocking tone, “You are not qualified!”He then threw his hands down and took out a handkerchief from the inside of his jacket, wiped his hands thoroughly and threw it away into

Congratulations.”“Thank you!” Lin Wen Xin closed her eyes for a second, and gave a smile of relieve.“I hope you will be happy, I really mean it.” Xiao Yu Zheng said it with a deep look.He then smiled and jokingly added, “And if that man doesn’t treat you well, come to me, I will help you deal with him!”Xiao Yu Zheng did not wait for her reply and opened his car door.He walked towards the front of the car and gave Lin Wen Xin a teasing wink, and then went on to open the car door for her.Lin Wen Xin couldn’t hold back her laughter as she sat in the car and looked at Xiao Yu Zheng’s foolish face.Even though Xi

He usually would show her his cold and indifferent attitude, and would not even want to communicate with her.What is this situation now? Is he indirectly showing his concerns towards her?Wang Shen Ze also did not know what had happened to him today.He was annoyed at himself for asking her so many questions, but he really couldn’t help it.He just had to know the answers by today!He did not know why he became so angry when he saw her with another man.

They actually dared to ask Madam such questions, in front of President Wang??!!True enough, everyone immediately felt the low pressure from Wang Shen Ze, as he glared coldly at those reporters, while keeping his fists clenched tightly.If not for Lin Wen Xin being here, he would have already thrown every single one of them into the warehouse for a beating, before closing the media companies that they are working for.However, he soon felt Lin Wen Xin’s gentle hand around his waist, which quickly dissipated his anger.In fact, she was not offended at all when she heard such questions from the reporters.

    But the moment Lin Wen Xin got into the car, she started vomiting into the plastic bag that Wang Shen Ze is holding on to.Thankfully Xiao Yu Meng had prepared this for her, earlier at the cafe!“Xin, hold on, we are reaching soon...” Wang Shen Ze held on to Lin Wen Xin in his arms and looked at her worriedly.Could she have taken the wrong food just now?? Or was she already feeling sick in the afternoon?When they arrived at Yue He Hospital, the medical team is already waiting for them at the entrance, as usual. However, Wang Shen Ze simply carried her and dashed past them, heading straight into the consultation room.As soon as the lead doctor walked into the room with the test results, Wang Shen Ze asked him anxiously, “How is she??”“A big congratulations to both of you! Madam is currently 5 weeks pregnant!”When he broke the news to them, both Wang Shen Ze and Lin We

    Lin Wen Xin was completely moved to tears when she heard his heartfelt words.And when Wang Shen Ze saw that she nodded her head happily and had placed her left hand out, he excitedly took out the ring from the box and helped her wear it on her finger.“Xin, I love you.” He went closer to her and gave her a hug.She smiled and looked at him in the eyes, “I love you too, Shen.”It felt as though time had stood still for a brief moment when both of them stopped to admire the beauty in each other’s eyes.Those moments that they have missed, and what they could achieve together in the future, quickly flooded their minds.They leaned in together at the same time, and the gentle kiss soon became a long, and passionate one.When dinner came, the two of them did not eat much as they were already full from happiness!

    As Lin Wen Xin is still very tired, she continued sleeping in Wang Shen Ze’s arms, throughout the entire car ride to the airport.When she woke up, she found herself sitting inside a private jet, with Wang Shen Ze beside her.“Xin, you’re awake?” He reached out and gently tucked her loose hair behind her ear.She nodded her head lightly, “Mmm... Where are we going?”“You’ll see very soon.”...Wang Shen Ze held on to Lin Wen Xin’s hand and led her down the jet. She looked around and saw that they are on a beautiful island, surrounded by the sea - with the clearest green water.Wow! This place is absolutely stunning!Lin Wen Xin would often see such an island on the internet and magazines, and would frequently dream about visiting it!Is this a dream come true for her??Seeing her blissful bright smile, Wang Shen Ze

    “P...Per... Pervert??!!” Wang Shen Ze was utterly dumbfounded by her choice of word.It took him a few more seconds to completely register what he had just heard.Never in his life would he have imagined himself to be called a pervert by anyone, let alone Lin Wen Xin!He is NOT a pervert!! He desperately wanted to explain himself to Lin Wen Xin, but she just refused to listen to him.On the other hand, Lin Wen Xin really could not believe what had just happened!He actually had the audacity to look at her when the towel had already slipped off.A pervert will always be a pervert!Lin Wen Xin immediately placed a bolster in the middle of their king size bed, to mark out her territory. She had also warned him to not cross the line - literally.On top of that, Lin Wen Xin took the entire blanket - which was meant for the both of them, and covered herself tightly with it. As such, Wang Shen Ze

    So this was how Wang Shen Ze was sent home by Lin Wen Xin. She even repeatedly told his driver to give her a text once they have reached the villa.But before he left the office, he remembered to ask her, “Xin, are you coming over to our villa later? You have to at least share with me the results of today’s meeting right?”Lin Wen Xin pondered for a few seconds. What Wang Shen Ze had said actually made sense. “Alright, I will see you there after the meeting.”“Then... are you going to stay over for the rest of the week too? Otherwise, how will you know if I’m not working from home?”That’s true... She better be there to ‘supervise’ him. “Sure, I’ll be staying at the villa then.”The moment she responded, Wang Shen Ze gave her a kiss on the lips. “Wifey, I will see you at home later.” He smirked in triumph and left the room.

    With the help of Lin Wen Xin, the two of them finally made it up to her house.“Be careful, there’s a small step in front of you.” She then brought Wang Shen Ze to the sofa, and laid him down.Soon, the lead doctor from Yue He Hospital has arrived. After checking on him, he turned to Lin Wen Xin, “Madam, from what I see, President Wang has overworked and this has taken a toll on his body.”“But not to worry, he will be fine as long as he gets ample rest for the next few days, to recover from his fatigue.” The lead doctor then prescribed a few medications for him to help ease his pain.She breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully it is nothing serious!“Thank you, Doctor.”Lin Wen Xin decided to move Wang Shen Ze over to the guest room so he could get a better rest for the night. However, he was already asleep and due to her small frame, she had to request for the lead

    It was as if DT Holding’s employees were not suffering enough... The upper management team was called to a meeting with Wang Shen Ze the next morning at 5am!But is this even real?? They have actually been stuck in this meeting for close to 18 hours and only managed to have a short 30 minutes break?The directors and executives were clearly exhausted, but no one dared to leave the room until he has released them.Seems like none of them would be going home today...Yi Fan looked at everyone’s worn out faces and felt that he should do something about this. But just like the rest, he is also not in any position to advise Wang Shen Ze on what to do - unless he wish to get sacked!He suddenly thought of an idea and took out his phone in a discreet manner....Over on the other side, Lin Wen Xin is currently firming up her ideas for the upcoming launch when a new message came in.She picke

    Lin Wen Xin looked at him and struggled lightly to remove her arm from his hand.She took a deep breath before saying, “I’m sorry President Wang, then I guess, it is just me who needs more time to think about this.” Lin Wen Xin proceeded to leave the restaurant without turning back.But to be honest, she was very touched by what Wang Shen Ze had said to her.Anyone who knows him would know that he is someone who would never apologise or bow down to any person. So for Wang Shen Ze to say those words to her, it must not be easy for him.And the fact that he had personally came to apologise and explain about what had happened, it showed how much he truly cared about her and their marriage.However, as much as it is easy to forgive him, it is very difficult to forget the hurt and pain that she had been put through. Indeed, it requires both time and effort for her to fully heal from this....O
