Offer To The CEO

316 Recovering

Monday, continued …

A few minutes after they arrived back in their room, dinner was brought into their room by the ancestral home staff for Hou Yi and Anna.Before the staff left, Hou Yi told them he would leave their plates outside the room as they did not want to be disturbed for the rest of the night.

Anna while Hou Yi was dealing with the staff made herself comfortable on the couch to eat, before turning to Hou Yi and saying "It has been exhausting today."

"Anna, sweetheart, you did well."With that Hou Yi leaned over and gave her a kiss.

Anna pulled back before it could become too passionate."Yi, we need to eat, but can you turn on a news channel on the television."

Hou Yi located the remote controls and then moved the painting covering the television before turning it on.Anna immediately saw that the news story on-screen focused on the Press Conference.They simply sat there watching in silence while they started to eat their meal.When the story ended it because obvious to both of them that the press had taken the challenge that had been thrown down.

Hou Yi's mobile rang, disturbing them.As he picked it up Hou Yi noticed that it was Assistant Wang, so he put it on speaker phone "Yes Assistant Wang, what do you want."

"Apologies CEO Hou, I need to speak to Madam Hou, and I could not quickly locate her number."

"Assistant Wang, I am here, you are on speaker."

"Sorry to disturb you Madam Hou but a couple of unusual requests for you have come through to Hou Enterprises.The local University and Law Association have both requested you to come in and speak to them.I requested them to send the information through regarding their requests, but the University asked if they could have a response in a few days.As they explained it yo me they need to factor your response into their lecture schedule as they would like you to speak to a final year class."

"Send it through, but it would you let them know I will respond by the end of he week."

"Not a problem Madam Hou.CEO Hou, as you requested between myself and the public relations department all queries have been directed to your personal media adviser."

"Thank you."And with that Hou Yi ended the call.

Anna turned to Hou Yi "I wonder why I got the requests?Why would they ask a foreign lawyer?"

"Maybe because they want to do something about other legal systems, or even explore the ideas behind suppression orders.Your explanation today, would help anyone understand them.Do not worry about it, leave it for a couple of days and see what they are looking for with their requests."

When they finished their meal, Hou Yi took their dishes and left then outside their room.When he came back to the couch "You know, despite enjoying being here with my family and part of your family, I miss the apartment.I cannot wait to go back home."

"Yi, is that really going to be the place to raise our child?"

"Sweetheart, No.But I have already been looking for a family home for us, near here, so we can be close to family but have our own life.We will keep the apartment as it will make a much closer base to the office in the long-term if we do not feel like returning to our house.Now, let us have a shower and head to bed, you are exhausted and it has been a long day,"

Hou Yi carried Anna into the bathroom, and helped cover her cast, before they indulged in a shower.Hou Yi, however put stop to any efforts Anna made, which were halfhearted to provoke passion in the shower.While he was so tempted, Anna was exhausted, and she needed to relax and recover.

Once they were finished, and changed, Hou Yi carried Anna to the bed, and carefully placed her in bed.As he moved to go over to his side of the bed, he noticed someone had placed Anna's crutches inside the door.He went over and collected them, placing them near Anna's side of the bed in case she required them overnight.

When he climbed into bed, he moved over and gathered Anna into his arms.She moved and gave him a gentle kiss on the lips and whispered "I love you".

Within seconds both of them drifted off to sleep.
