"Goodluck on your exam. I love you," she said.
"Thank you mummy. I love you too."
Bai Renxiang watched as her son walked into his class and took his seat which was situated at the second column of the roll close to the white wall. His seat was the second on that roll.
She waved him good bye when their gaze locked. Bai Renxiang stood there for a moment before she finally left as the school hours was about to begin and she needs to be early for work.
Bai Renxiang arrived at Emperor's Enterprise a minute before eight o'clock. She greeted the receptionist as usual, used the elevator to go to the third floor of the building.
She greeted her colleagues and settled herself in her table.
Working in Emperor's Enterprise had lots of benefits to Bai Renxiang. She had learnt a lot from her supervisors, colleagues and even from other departments, especially the designing department.
The pay was also encouraging. The working environment was not as intense as she thought. It was peaceful unlike when she worked in her father's company. Everything here was perfect for her and she prayed everyday that God will help her to keep the job.
While she was busy working on some files that were given to her, someone dropped a cup of coffee on her desk with a low thud.

"Sigh. Good morning Suzy," she sighed when she saw the person that is presently standing in front of her desk.
"Good morning to you too, Renxiang. What do you think about my entrance?" Bei Suzy asked with a cheerful expression on her pretty round face.
"What can I say? You surely know how to make an entrance. You look stunning in your today's attire, might I add," Bai Renxiang passed a compliment on the navy blue pants and red sleeveless camisole shirt.
"Thank you for the compliment. So are you trying to say that I do not look stunning in my other days attire?" Bei Suzy asked with a cute pout.
Bai Renxiang chuckled at her cuteness.
"Of course, you do. But today you look more stunning. In fact you look gorgeous," Wen Shaoming cut in on their little chat.
His words and the admiration in his eyes made, Bei Suzy blush.
"Thank you, Shaoming. You look handsome too," she said shyly, not meeting his gaze as she brushed a stray strand of her brown wavy hair from her face.
"Really? And here I thought I made the wrong choice of wearing these today," Wen Shaoming asked playfully, referring to the black trouser and blue coloured check shirt he wore.
Bai Renxiang noticed the shy actions of her friend and her smile widened with a little hint of mischief lingering in her eyes.
"Yes, you look gorgeous. Shaoming has said it all. In fact, I think you should only believe in his words. He has got some good eye," she said with a wide grin on her face.
Her suggestion made Bei Suzy more embarrassed. She quickly made her way to her table at the other end of the large room to hide her tomato red face.
Bai Renxiang and Wen Shaoming laughed at her as she ran away from them.
"Hahaha. Your actions and words are so obviously clear that you have feelings for her and hers for you. What is stopping her from accepting it?" Bai Renxiang said amidst her laughter.
"I am curious myself. I want something more than just being best friends," Wen Shaoming shook his head lightly. He really wanted to know what is holding her back from accepting hers and his feelings for each other.
" I will never stop making my feelings clear. Anyways thank you for helping me out. Now if you will excuse me, I have a gorgeous lady to work with," he as he made his s way to Bei Suzy's table where his own table was close to.They are neighbours.
"Bye, lover boy," she teased him m as he walked away. These two friends of hers are so fun to tease. She never fails to make them her target, especially Bei Suzy.
Bai Renxiang shook her head happily and continued her focus on the work she has at hand. She did not want to be caught by the department's head relaxing and having fun during working hours.
Around eleven o'clock that morning, the whole company was in an uproar. A news had gone viral. Employees were discussing, all department's head were in a frenzy, going here and there, organizing or rather preparing for something.

"Good morning, sir," they all responded. They were curious to know what had gotten their calm and collected Mr Longwen disturbed.
"You all have been doing very well lately. But I just want you to put in your best before the next one hour thirty minutes," he made a pause to make sure everyone was carried along.

"Sir, they company is in a somewhat, uh chaotic state at we speak. So I heard when I was returning from the errand you went me on," Jack started.
"Yes, carry on," Mr Longwen probed. He had no time to waste.
