Embrace your past!

'Knock…. Knock.'

Ye Qing entered with the next schedule in her hand.

Zhao Mei put down the book she was reading and sat on her chair.

"Boss, the slot after 3 P.M. has been cleared as you ordered." Ye Qing said like a well-programmed robot to Zhao Mei.

Zhao Mei has ordered in the morning that to keep the slot after 3 P.M. cleared. Ye Qing knew why her boss asked to clear her schedule.

Tomorrow was the retired chairman, 'Hua Xiong' birthday. Zhao Mei's Gramps.

However, everyone calls him 'Old Xiong.'

Ye Qing knows that her boss respect and cherish Old Xiong very much. He was someone who has thoroughly supported Zhao Mei during her hardest times.

He was the elder figure in Zhao Mei's life.

Ye Qing liked the familial relationship between her boss and Old Xiong. Because despite not sharing a single drop of blood, both of them cared for each other like a real granddaughter and grandfather.

"Hmmm…" Zhao Mei responded to Ye Qing and walked into the adjacent room of her office. "Then, I should freshen up a bit before heading out."

After freshen up, she walked into the closet of the adjacent room. The closet mostly consists of business suits, but there was a small section for some casual outfits.

Zhao Mei selected a black dress. The dress was flowered knee-length. It was an off-shoulder dress that enhanced the beautiful collar bones of Zhao Mei. The dress flaunted her hourglass figure beautifully.

She paired the dress with matching black killer heels. On her slim swan neck rested the very same necklace that was with her since she transmigrated here.

Her wrist was donned with an Armani watch.

Yes, an Armani watch. It seems the author was very fond of the brands that were in her previous world. This world also had Chanel, Ferrari, Mercedes, and other top luxurious brands.

However, Zhao Mei liked to wear all types of clothes. Whether they were branded or not. For her only, her taste matter. If she likes it, then she wants.

Her attitude was like that, 'I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it.'

She let down her wavy hair and completed her looks with a branded purse and black sunglasses.

The dress changed her overall look. If in a business suit, she was a ruthless hellhound from hell waiting to devour her enemies. Then, now she looked like a sexy goddess who has descended the world with otherworldly beauty.

Even now, only some influential people knew, how the Hellhound, a.k.a, Zhao Mei looked like. She has not accepted any interviews or shown her face in public. But it does not mean that she was hiding from the outside world.

For now, was not the right time to fully expose herself and be in the limelight when her enemies are in dark.

She liked to dress like this occasionally cause of her grandpa and bestie. Their constant naggings have become useful and helped her to overcome her self-pity and guilt. Even though whatever happened was not her fault.

But still, if something happens that was enough to put a scar on the person's heart, then the most who suffered was the victim, not the perpetrator.

However, she has gradually come to her senses. But still, it was not enough. She had steeled her heart, but it was still vulnerable.

Her Gramps said to her one time, "Who says that once you have gone through series of rough times, you cannot heal."

Even she knows there was something that had scarred her for the whole life. But she can't just sit and wait to ruin her entire life.

Why should she suffer when she was the victim?

Where was it written that victims never had the right to live happily? Where was it written that they should suffer because they have been scarred?

It should not be them who should live like that but those who have inflicted those pains.

She will make them regret it. She will live fully of her own with her Gramps and friends.

Because life was just starting for her. No one was forced to forget her past rather it was her Gramps who said, "One who runs from his/her past can never win the race. So, learn to accept it as a part of your life not to forget it. Because it will always be taught you some valuable lessons. How much small that lesson was, it does not matter because at the end you will come to learn to embrace your shortcomings."

Taking a last look in the mirror, Zhao Mei exited the adjacent room while still thinking about the things her Gramps told her.

She looked at her assistant, who was still standing in the office room waiting for her.

"Did I punished you or something," Zhao Mei quirkily raised her brow and asked her?

Ye Qing shakes her left and right denying, Zhao Mei.

"Then, why you were standing there like a statue," Zhao Mei snorted. "If someone comes and sees you like this, my name will plummet to most ruthless Hellhound towards her friends also."

"Well, I am your friend..." Ye Qing snorted. "But it is outside the business because as one standing before has once said that business and personal relationships should be kept separated."

She dramatically added, "And for now, I am your loyal dog, My majesty Hellhound."

Zhao Mei was speechless at the boldness of her assistant. She remembered even Ye Qing was intelligent and quick-witted. She did not have this side to her. Seems like her personality has been rubbing off on her.

Zhao Mei chuckled, "Ok...Let's stop the chitchat. We need to get going."

"Me t-to... shopping!" Ye Qing stammered. Zhao Mei amusedly nodded her head.

Her boss knew what she hated most was shopping.

Yeah! She would probably be a weird piece, who did not like shopping.

It was not she disliked it. For her, it was like a hassle. So, she always ordered online. No need to give pain to her legs and ass. When she can do the same from her couch.

Ye Qing nodded, but her heart was crying silently.

'Seems like today she will not be going home till late night. God! Her Ass and Legs.'

God, who was confused about what to do with Ye Qing's ass and legs request: "...…"
