WE SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUE WITH HER

Shiya finished preparing food for Zhaolin and went upstairs to call him.

She knocked lightly on the door but there was no response. She knocked again and it still remained silent. She then pushed the door open and to her surprise the man had fallen asleep with Zhihao wrapped in his arm. He must have taken a shower as he had changed into his pajamas.

He must have eaten out... She said and closed the door.

"You guys can have that!" She said to the workers when she went down.

Mrs Xing I heard it and immediately asked, "What is wrong? Did Zhao refuse to eat?"

Shiya smiled to keep her cool, "He's asleep already."

"Oh is that it? Ok, ok. You guys are lucky for you are going to eat the dinner specially prepared by my granddaughter in-law for Zhao... Truly lucky." The woman said to lighten up the mood and the workers smiled.

"Thank you Mrs Xing III!" The name made Shiya smile. 

Yes. That's right. Even if she chooses to come between us, this family will never be in support! I really have to hold on to my spot by visiting granny and mother everyday.

She had been reluctant at first to follow Zhihao but then it would be sad because Zhaolin wouldn't come home to her so instead she followed the little man here.

"I really think we should allow Yuxi do this! She had told us herself, why do you think she did that? Because she wants us to support her in everything she does. She could have kept it from us but she didn't do that. You really need to think deep about this..." Mrs Bai picked up a glass of water and downed it.

Mr Bai sat with a folded arm. "You are right. But then she will become a puppet for the rich..."

"Yuxi isn't so weak. You know that too. I believe nobody, absolutely nobody can step on her and she'd remain still... Xueyan... Xueyan had been a very quiet and timid girl that's why... She was able to get hurt so easily," a tear dropped. "Due to her kindness and sweetness, Xue was able to get hurt but Yuxi isn't in anyway like that. Believe me, she can fight it all! You just can't take away her first job from her!"

The man got up and strode toward her on the bed, sat beside her and cleaned the tears that was now coming with a flow.

"Ay ay," the man tsked. "That shouldn't make you cry..."

"But..."

"No buts. You are right! Let's just pray the Almighty remains with her." The man said as his lips formed a straight line.

Mrs Bai was really happy and soon she fell asleep. She needs to sleep early so she can prepare breakfast early and lunch to take to work.

In the other room, Yuxi lay with her eyes wide open, she couldn't sleep. She wondered what she would tell the woman. Her father had refused her from continuing the work because the price was too large? No no. It sounds stupid... But there's nothing more to say.

Yuxi rubbed her tired eyes, she was now feeling sleepy.

Qingran giggled, "Mom... Haha." As Xueyan played with her tummy. Yuxi awoke to this beautiful scene. 

"Morning," Yuxi said with a smile on her face.

"Morning," the mother and daughter chanted.

A knock on the door.

"Yuxi, why are you not ready for work?" Mrs Bai asked.

"Father had said..."

"No no," the woman immediately shook her head. "Get up and go get ready. The breakfast is ready and I also prepared you three a lunch pack."

"Whoa!" Qingran was amazed. "I'm ready granny"

"Come," the woman beckoned the little girl and she followed immediately. They both left the room to the kitchen.

"Go get ready, you might be late for work." Xueyan said to Yuxi and left as well.

Yuxi thought about her father's opinion...Did he change his mind? She sprang up from the bed and made a beeline to the bathroom.

Thirty minutes later, everyone was seated at the table and they all ate together.

Xueyan was the first to leave after Shihuan offered to drop Qingran off.

In front of the hotel building, Xueyan saw Mei Han and they both went in.

"Oh wow, the mistress and her slave are here..." The first person to speak was Qing Jia and Anna Ming laughed out.

Xueyan smiled at Mei Han and she returned the smile. They both got ready to go clean their rooms and ignored the other two girls.

"Miss Xueyan, the manager sent for you." Liu Chen said, standing at the door.(One of the male cleaners)

Xueyan had a look of surprise but still went to answer.

In the manager's office the woman paced to and fro, when she heard the door open she strode forward and met Xueyan half way.

"Where's your cell?" Manager Fu asked.

Xueyan was taken by surprise, "It's..."

"Cool. Have you had your breakfast? Is there any trouble you would want to report to me?" The woman sized Xueyan up and Xueyan looked down to look at herself as well. 

"Are you comfortable in this? Maybe we could get you a new one... Hmm."

Xueyan stepped back, "I'm fine ma."

"Oh! Is that it? Are you sure?" She needed an affirmation.

"Yes I'm." Xueyan affirmed her.

"Okay. You can leave now." Manager Fu said.

Xueyan bowed a bit and left. 

After Xueyan left she sighed and sat on her chair. Now I'm her guardian angel... 

*

"Is everything alright?" Mei Han asked.

"Yes, yes." Xueyan said.

"That's good then. We shouldn't have any issue with her!" They both left for their rooms.

All Stars Media,

Chu Feng was trying to set Qiangshen's schedule for the week. 

"This is really hard, you only went for one shoot yesterday. And now it's piling... Why are you being so lazy these days? I really think this female assistant your grandma got you is wrong. Wait, what I want to know is how she found that young lass. Did you notice she doesn't wear make ups? Those type of ladies are hard to find nowadays. She's naturally beautiful... I really can't believe this..."
