Zhang Liling stood outside his door till the time he walked out.
Glancing at her, he looked a bit surprised as he shut his door and turned to fully face her.
"You are still here? I thought you must have left by now."
Zhang Liling leaned away from the wall with a small smile. She was glad he didn't start his statement with scolding her.
"I have something important to bring to your attention, so I couldn't leave just yet."
Mr. Fang looked her up and down before resuming his steps. He walked past her while sliding his hands into his pants pockets, but she hurriedly turned around to follow him.
"What was so important that had you so restless and barging into my room?" He questioned without turning his gaze.
The smile reached her ears as her lips parted to break fort the good news. "Mr. Fang, my results are out!"
'What?'
As soon as he heard that, his brows knitted as he swiftly halted in his steps and turned his body to face her.
Luckily, she was walking with great attention to him. So when he stopped to turn around, she put her steps on a brake, stopping before she could collide with his body.
Taking two steps back in rememberance of the rules, she maintained her smile while gazing at him.
That irresistible not-faltering smile on her face, spoke volumes. Mr. Fang didn't even need to question her to know what her happiness was all about.
Her result was out, and she made a first-class Honours.
Seeing him staring at her with his gaze changing by a split second, she decided not to waste his time and went on to announce her grades to him.
"Mr. Fang, my final results are out, and I made a first-class Honours!!"
Mr. Fang continued to watch her excited gestures. And when she spilled the reason for her joy, he smacked his lips.
"Miss Zhang, congratulations!" He said in a calm tone, earning a change of expression from her.
The way he said it so calmly surprised her, making her smile to falter a bit. "Thank you, Mr. Fang."
"Is this all you came to tell me?" He asked.
'huh?'
There was a confused look on her her face. What did he mean by that question? Does he want me to blatantly mention about the agreement?
'Fine! If he wants me to remind him about it, then here I come.'
Changing her expression to that of seriousness, she said, "Mr. Fang, you said you will date me if I get a first-class Honours in my degree. I can show you my result if you don't believe me!"
Zhang Liling didn't come out with her phone and so, made up her mind to go back and get it with a frown sitting on her face, but he stopped her.
"There is no need. It's not like you would dare to lie to me about something like this."
'So?' Zhang Liling looked on with anticipation.
A sigh escaped from his lips. "You are very stubborn. Follow me!" He said and turned towards his study.
Zhang Liling smiled and followed after him immediately.
In the study, Mr. Fang sat on his chair before gesturing to her to take a seat.
Zhang Liling was all smiles with the treatment. This was the first time he was treating her well in his study room, maybe because there wasn't any need to do that before.
Yes, there wasn't any need for her to sit before.
Without a second to waste, Mr. Fang started to speak to her with a relaxed expression on his face.
"I said I would consider dating you if you make a first-class Honours, and you have done it, so I will really consider your proposal."
'What is he trying to say?' Zhang Liling could feel her blood pumping faster than normal. She was a bit nervous.
"Because of our huge age difference and the fact that you are yet to have your graduation ceremony, I can't date you now. I don't want people to have a bad impression of me. Once you start your internship, we can start going out on dates."
"Really?!" Zhang Liling almost flew out from her seat, but used the last shred of dignity in her to sit her butts tightly.
She looked like she was trying to suppress her happiness with the way she was smiling at him with a wide gaze and her palms placed on his desk.
Mr. Fang ignored her question and went on to talk about something that was of a high importance to him.
"Zhang Liling, you better start training yourself to cut down on your bad habits. No more going out in the night in short dresses and coming home drunk. I hate disobedient people, so you better not act stubborn with me."
His warning sank into her head and she even nodded sheepishly with a big smile on her face. He agreed to date her, what was so hard with agreeing with him?
'Anyway, when we start dating, he would start to tolerate me without knowing.'
Thinking that was all, she was about to start thanking him and showering praises on him for keeping to his promise, but he was not done speaking.
"I know you have your own place..."
Zhang Liling was immediately afraid. He knew she had an apartment? Since when? This man is so frightening!
Mr. Fang did not let her fear to sink deep into her heart before continuing. It's not like he had the intention to scare her with this knowledge from the beginning.
"When we start dating, you will quit your job as my housekeeper, and move to your house."
"What?!" Zhang Liling was already reacting strongly against this second statement.
There was a frown on her face while staring straight into his eyes.
"Mr. Fang, why do I have to move out of your place when there are several huge rooms here?!" She asked with pouted lips.
She was thinking that if she was going to move out of the servant quarters, why would she have to move back to her apartment when there were several other rooms in his villa?
Mr. Fang's brows creased in a tight frown. "What? You want to continue living in my house instead of moving back to your apartment?"
