Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

As Chuanli had something for her, Zhang Liling had to wait for him, as she pondered over what the content of the form held.

Bolin stood at one point and watched Chuanli fiddle with the printer. Just like Mr. Fang, he had an idea of the content of that form.

"Yah… it's ready!" Chuanli said with a full-blown smile as he walked to Zhang Liling and handed the form to her. "Please it as soon as you get the chance and pass it to Mr. Fang."

Zhang Liling took the form from him and glanced at it. She found the questions weird and couldn't help asking about them. "What is this form for?"

"This will help Mr…" Chuanli didn't get to finish what he was saying when Mr. Fang cut his words off.

"Dr. Li that's enough!" Mr. Fang said through gritted teeth.

What's he trying to reveal his health secret just now?

Shifting his gaze to Zhang Liling. He asked her to leave. "You can leave now."

Zhang Liling wanted to know what that form has to do with Mr. Fang because she was sure Chuanli was about to mention his name when he suddenly cut him off. But she couldn't go against Mr. Fang's instructions and had to leave with Bolin.

As soon as they left, Mr. Fang glanced at the bottle of water on his desk and uncapped it. He drank a mouthful before removing the lid from his bottle of pills.

Chuanli watched him take his drugs before sighing. "Do you want me to work on your pills again?"

Mr. Fang swallowed the two pills in his hands and drank another mouthful of water before replying to him. "Work on the research first, if I have any issues with the drug, I will inform you. It's already so late, go back."

"Are you worried about me?" Chuanli asked while leaning close to him as a playful smile played on his lips.

Mr. Fang rolled his eyes and went back to his work, totally ignoring him.

Chuanli gave up on teasing him. "Alright, I'm going now. Don't forget you can't chase her out of your house without notifying me. As soon as she is done filling the form, scan it to me."

*********************************

AT THE ZHANG VILLA…

The family of 4 is sitting in the dining room having their dinner like the perfect family they were. No conversation was being made as only the 'clank' sound from the cutlery hitting against the ceramic plates was heard.

Shi Wenqian looked very happy as it felt like she has gone back to the good days when Zhang Liling wasn't in the picture.

This flashback alone, made her begin to think about how it would be if Zhang Liling ceased to be in the picture. As she thought of that, her lips curled in a smile.

Her mind was too busy with plotting that she forgot where she was. Zhang Renshu had to call her attention back.

"What are you thinking about that is so funny?"

Shi Wenqian recollected her thoughts and answered in a composed manner, "Nothing much, apart from my business."

Zhang Xiaoling glanced at her mother briefly before fixing her gaze back on her meal. Her thoughts were left only to her, but that brief gaze on her mother attracted her (Shi Wenqian) attention.

Shi Wenqian felt a bit uneasy and recalled an important question she had wanted to ask, and made a mental note to get it off her mind that night.

After Zhang Renshu was done eating, he wiped his lips with a table napkin and drank a full glass of water before fixing a stern gaze on Zhang Mingyu.

"Have you been serious with your studies these days?"

Zhang Mingyu didn't expect his father to face him as soon as he finished eating. The man has been ignoring him since they met after a few days apart, so he thought it would continue to stay that way.

Who knew he would start a conversation, and that too with a topic that he dreaded.

Zhang Mingyu hesitated a little and glanced at his mother who glared at him in return. He quickly shifted his gaze back to his father to reply to him, but it was too late. The man had already guessed he has not been serious with his studies.

Slamming his hands on the table, he said furiously, "This means that you have been neglecting your studies! If Liling does better than in the finals, forget about being my successor, you will serve under her!"

"Honey!" Shi Wenqian called out in alarm. She couldn't stand it when he threatened her son's future position.

"What is it?" Zhang Renshu glared at her.

Shi Wenqian put down her cutlery and said with an angry gaze, "How could you threaten Mingyu with his position? How does being good at studies surpass being good at one's work?"

"Is there anything he is good at?" Zhang Renshu pointed furiously at Mingyu and shifted his gaze back to her.

Zhang Renshu felt a blow to her chest as she continued her angry stare at him. His question was humiliating for her. He meant that the son she gave birth to wasn't intellectually fit to be proud of. Which mother would take that insult?

Zhang Xiaoling continued with her meal and pretended to be absent. She didn't want to get into that fight because it was none of her business.

Zhang Mingyu on the other hand found it difficult to continue with his food. He was being scolded, so how could he continue to eat?

Shi Wenqian tried to calm her temper by taking deep breaths. "Honey, you promised that Mingyu's position as your successor will not be compromised. What you are doing now is against what you said back then."

She was trying to remind him of the promise he made before bringing Zhang Liling back to the Zhang family.

He had said that Migyu's position as his successor will not be shaken by any decision he makes, and that was the reason she relaxed a bit, but what was he doing by trying to go back on his promise?

There was no way she was going to accept that. After working hard all these years to make sure his successor would come from her, he was going to crush her dreams?

She would never take that lying down.
