At Feng Internationals,

Gao Fan walked with hurried but measured steps to reach the President's office. His eyes were having the smoothness of satisfaction, but even with that softness, his face never left the stoic expression, he was trained to have on.

Giving a knock at the door, he waited to get permission before entering the room. His eyes came to halt when saw Feng Shufen sitting behind his desk, as usual doing his work.

Being all polite in his attitude, with his hands at the back, he informed, "President Feng, old Han will be back to Chiboa by late-night tomorrow".

Feng Shufen's heard everything. His pen did not stop but the secretary did not miss his expression from pausing. "Tomorrow is WeiWei's debate competition, I don't want any creation of mess around." He plainly ordered. To which the Secretary nodded at once, understanding his orders.

"I got it, President Feng. I would send someone to keep an eye on him as well as Ms Wen Sying."

Feng Shufen gave out a small sound of confirmation to his words, continuing his work. His eyes never left the file he was working on but it also didn't miss some remaining hesitation left on the face of his secretary.

"Is there anything left?"

Gao Fan was not surprised. "Yes, President!" He has always known about the sharp sense of the man that never misses the things around.

"Continue!"

"There have been continuous calls coming from Ms Zhang. But since you have denied taking any of her calls, all her calls have been reverted back. Now, due to this, there is an air of gossip in the office" The secretary paused.

"And what's that?"

Gao Fan's eyes wavered as he looked down at the floor before continuing. "They are saying all of this is because Madam does not like to see you with other women. So, she is restricting you from seeing or talking to any other. She did the same with Ms Kim Ryan and now it's the same with Ms Zhang Xiaotong."

The pen in the hands of the man halted as well as his eyes. For a moment, the secretary almost feared for every employee's job. After all, with this rumour, they have dared to taint the name of their President. Men never liked to be called henpecked.

But all his thoughts were left quizzical when caught the faint curl of a smile appearing on the poker expression of his boss.

"What's wrong in a wife getting possessive over her husband? Am I not a possession for only her to look after?" Feng Shufen said, feeling all honoured.

Gao Fan was rendered speechless at those thoughts. When the whole world thinks henpecked being a taboo on the name of the husbands, this man was being happy to get rumoured with that title. 

"Hey, Shufen can you not behave like this anymore. It's fretting me out. I could no longer identify you like this". At this moment, a defeated voice from the entrance interrupted. Gao Fan immediately turned around a little to find the dramatic Director already on his knees. And for the once he felt the antics of the man was not overdramatic, rather was very perfect for the situation.

"And when will you go to learn your work etiquettes. Knock the door of the office before coming in" Feng Shufen said, pressing his lips together.

Qi Shuai eyed his friend for a moment, narrowing it at him. Then standing back on his feet, he stomped on the floor before walking out of the room just to give the hard knock at the door. "President Feng, can this Director come in?"

"No!" Feng Shufen at once rejected, keeping his expression all poker at his friend.

Qi Shuai's lips twitched at the harshness, before he made his way back inside the office room. Would he stop outside the room, just because Feng Shufen has asked so? Not a chance. He was a clingy friend and would always remain that, no matter how many times his cold, heartless friend pushes him away.

"There, there, I knew this, that's why I never bothered to knock the door," He said, slumping on one of the chairs across Shufen and then continued. "And why not make the use of privilege well when I have got one".

Feng Shufen did not bother with words. He had long seen coming. Of course, just a 'no' from him would not change Qi Shuai's antics.

His eyes glanced shortly at his friend and then moved back to look at his secretary. "About the gossip, let everyone know that Feng Internationals still does not favour gossipers. That's not what we are paying them for". He said in a sleek but authoritative tone, matching with the aura he was known to carry around.

Gao Fan nodded in attention, knowing the seriousness of the topic. He was about to ask permission to leave the room when suddenly he heard more coming. The seriousness in the eyes of the President more than it was before.

"And also let them know, I would not take any words against my wife. Even a small gossip against her would bring them immediate dismissal or even more worse". He concluded with a firm tone, bringing both men on their toes.

"Yes, President Feng! I will warn everyone for the next time" The secretary said, before taking his leave.

While Qi Shuai could only gawk at his friend. He has definitely never imagined his friend getting in this version. This was so surreal at the same time very real. Love does make the Devil go more devilish. His friend was the living example of that.

Shaking his head, he surrendered to the fact that none could ever match the man's skills in love even if they get to try it for their hundredth life. This was literally too much.

"So, any progress in the investigation, I asked you to make?" Feng Shufen snapped when got alone with Qi Shuai.

Qi Shuai sighed to himself but then nodded. "Yes, I got to know something but I don't know if it even has any importance at the present or not."
