As soon as he put in the order he saw her move slowly across the room analyzing the sections. She would stop and stare at a corner or furniture for a couple of seconds before moving on. He wasn't sure what she was looking for exactly but knew it had to do with her little plan. It seemed that she wasn't really happy with anything but decided to settle with the couch. She cleaned up the table and pillows on the couch before dusting herself off. Their clothes had gotten a little messy from the previous session and needed to be cleaned up before they arrived. They had give or take 8 minutes before he could expect them outside his door.

He watched as she straightened out her pants and shirt before wiping at her face. After a couple silent moments he reached inside his table to grab a hankerchief and a travel size of his cologne before walking over to her. "Here, use this to wipe your face with the water and some cologne."

Ying Yue hesitantly took the items, "I understand the hankerchief but what about the cologne?"

"You can use it to smell like me or for future use, you decide." Throwing in a wink he laughed as she left it on the couch. Rolling her eyes she ignored him and continued prepping for her stage. They didn't smell and the aircon did more than enough work stabilizing the air in the room, so she didn't need to use it despite his cheeky answer. She dabbed the cloth with water and freshned up her face slightly. Using her phone's camera as a mirror she was able to touch up and check if her face showed any signs of what just happened. Her skin looked fine but her hair was slightly messy from Xi Long running his hands through it. She picked up her fallen hair tie and prepped to tie it up again before deciding against it. Smoothing out her hair she let it loose, to carry out her plan she would need to look as foxy as possible. It would help if she had put some eye makeup on or had worn shorter clothing but she could make do with what she had. Checking herself once more she slipped her mask back on and confirmed her reflection in the mirror before putting her phone aside.

Her body was filled with a light excitment with what she was about to do. Looking up at Xi Long she saw him sit casually against the edge of his table watching her fix herself. "Take a picture it'll last longer...you know I'm starting to think you need glasses with how long you stare in my direction."

"First, you wouldn't let me take a photo and if by glasses you mean binoculars....then yes I do need them. I love an up-close view." As he finished his sentence she heard a knock from outside the door. Before he could allow them to enter she signalled him with her eyes and mouthed the words "follow my lead." With that, she leaned back casually into the couch with her head slightly leaned against her hand and a magazine casually on her lap. She kept her gaze on the magazine and flipped through it as she heard people enter the office. The second they did the light atmosphere they previously had became cold and reserved. It was obvious that Xi Long had returned to his usual attitude and you could feel his disdain permeate the air. She had a feeling that he was mad for her so that added to the overal heavy atmosphere.

As the footsteps stopped a couple feet away from Xi Long she could feel eyes quickly glance at her but she paid them no heed. Before she could enact her plan Xi Long had to speak to them and clarify their wrongdoings on a professional standpoint. "Do you know why you are here?" Xi Long's cold but reserved voice spoke first breaking the silence.

Sneaking a look she saw the three of them stand there with a mixture of fear and delusion. For some reason seeing their lovestruck expressions irritated her on the inside. She could understand liking him but to also maintain that in front of your superior while you are getting fired was just dumb. It was hard to even feel bad for these delusional women when they so willingly walked into this mess.

"CEO Han...we were wronged! This is a complete misunderstanding!" Not to her surprise the one who spoke up was the same bimbo who tried to hit her. The other two seemed as though they accepted that their jobs were over while the third still thought she could be the next Mrs.Han. Hearing her response, she saw Xi Long's eyes darken as he showed signs of anger. "So you are insinuating that Director Wei is lying, the cameras are lying, and the multiple other witnesses are lying. I'm finding it hard for it to believe that this is a misunderstanding."

"No no it really is!!! I was attacked by a vicious woman and she -." Sensing her cue, Ying Yue let a smile grace her face behind her mask as she prepped her role. "Vicious woman? Oh you must mean me..." Getting up from her spot she slowly strutted towards Xi Long before stopping right beside him. Wrapping her arm with his she leaned her head against him as she gazed evily at the bimbo.

"You-you!" A shriek left the bimbo's mouth as she saw the same woman appear next to the CEO. Xi Long slightly stiffened as he shot a warning glare towards her. Shutting her mouth the bimbo glared at Ying Yue while biting her lip in anger.

'This is perfect.' Ying Yue enjoyed seeing the bimbo bristle in anger like a pufferfish from her actions. When Xi Long had asked her if she wanted to punish them further she honestly did not care to. For something this minor what he was doing was sufficient enough but her mind sparked this idea at the last moment. A part of her loved seeing people get riled up by her manipulation and for a woman l.u.s.ting after her CEO, to then see his woman was the same one she attacked....ooh how enjoyable that would be! She couldn't resist the temptation and told him to have them brought here. Plus it could be considered doing him a favour as she was elimiating pesky flies around him.

"Did you hear that honey?? Apparently I'm vicious...she wouldn't even tell you I was here. Oh I'm so sad." Slipping into her role she pretended to be a soft and spoiled girlfriend as she clung to his arm. Gazing into his eyes she feigned sadness from hearing the other's words. The instant she did this she could see the layered amusment in Xi Long's face but to his credit, he maintained his cold persona. Following her lead he placed his other hand on hers before glaring at them again. "You first lie, then make a fool our of yourselves in the reception shaming our company and then dare to speak more insults to my woman in front of me! Who do you take yourselves for?!!!"
