Chairman Husband, Too Boorish Ch 14: Be my personal secretary

Yan Liang didn't expect the situation to take an sudden turn. She looked in shock at Liang Xi Cheng's entirely gentle expression.

"What? Secretary Bai, with that shocked look of yours, do you want me to be very mad?"

Yan Liang immediately waved her hand, "No......Chairman Liang, I......I just didn't think the words I said before wouldn't actually make you mad."

Liang Xi Cheng narrowed his eyes. His refined and slender fingers were crossed on top of his legs. His body was snugly resting against the leather sofa in a slightly languid posture. It made him seem a bit disinterested. "I like people who say it as it is. Of course in the workplace, they absolutely have to rely on their own ability. There are too many people that just suck-up to me. The words you said today, I just knew you weren't the type of women whose glib tongue got them to their current position."

His words without a doubt caused Yan Liang's confidence to rise. She really didn't think this insufferably arrogant Liang Xi Cheng, grand EC's crown prince, could actually use this point of view to assess her. Saying she wasn't happy was false. She subconsciously clenched her hands and took a deep breath before saying, "Thank you Chairman Liang for your understanding. The words I said before were also a bit impulsive. Actually I......"

"Actually I just came to EC. I also need a secretary, so I want you to directly come and be my personal secretary. What do you think?"

Yan Liang's mouth dropped. She looked at Liang Xi Cheng in shock.

He.......what did he just say?

Today he called her over. Not only did he not admonish her, he actually commended her straightforwardness. Now he wanted to promote her?

She wasn't dreaming right? He didn't lose his mind right?

"Chairman Liang, what you said just now......me be your personal secretary?" She stood up awkwardly while asking the question.

Liang Xi Cheng, same as before, rested against the sofa. This time he unexpectedly laughed freely. Yan Liang found out then he had a faint dimple on his right cheek. In her mind's eye suddenly flashed another beautiful cheek. When laughing it also had a dimple, but Liang Xi Cheng's was much more shallower compared to Liang Jing Shan. Because he didn't laugh as hard, it was faint. It was like a wisp of a breeze above the sea; in a blink of an eye, it disappeared. It made people think they saw wrongly.

"You heard right. I called you here to be my personal secretary." He quirked an eyebrow, "You don't want to?"

Yan Liang pursed her lips. She cautiously mulled over it for a short while. Finally she cautiously said, "Chairman Liang, thank you for your approval. I didn't think I would have such luck today. Actually when I came today, it was with a doomed resolve, but......now there's a new opportunity. Anyways since you asked my personally, then I have the power to choose------"

She took a deep breath. She steadily stared at Liang Xi Cheng, "Yes, I don't want to."

Liang Xi Cheng narrowed his eyes. It seemed like he was sizing her up. The deep gleam in his eyes didn't have a trace of unexpectedness. It was like her rejection wasn't a surprise to him. There was a vague sense of satisfaction.

At least he curved the corner of his mouth and asked, "Why don't you want to?"

Why?

Yan Liang bitterly laughed in her mind. It wasn't that she didn't feel qualified for the position but because she didn't want to get too close with the Liang family. The man in front of her was Liang Jing Shan's brother. She knew from before he doted on Liang Jing Shan. Now her relationship with Liang Jing Shan was so sensitive. With one more disturbance, wouldn't it be even messier?
