"Did you hear? Master Xian is married!"
"What are you saying? It's not confirmed that he is married. She could just be his girlfriend."
"Still, doesn't it mean that Master Xian is taken!"
"Didn't we already know that? He had been with Vice President Ruan for a while now."
These gossips had been going around the whole company since the morning. People shared the news in their friends' group and by lunchtime, this news had become the talk of the town. There was no one in the company who didn't hear one or two things about it. But the versions had become a bit distorted down the hierarchy line as well.
"Aiyo, but this woman's voice didn't match Vice President Ruan's!"
"What?! That's big news!"
"From that woman's words, people got to know that she and Master Xian were together last night."
"Tsk. Poor Vice President Ruan! I didn't think Master Xian would cheat on her."
The male colleague looked at his female companion in displeasure, "Don't talk nonsense! Vice President Ruan had never had anything to do with Master Xian. Just because he had been polite to her didn't mean they were together."
"What do you know?" The female colleague shot back. "It's a woman's intuition. Vice President Ruan had always been head over heels in love with Master Xian."
"But that does not mean Master Xian shared the same sentiment," retorted the male colleague. "If anything, he always kept a distance from her. It was only Vice President Ruan's wishful thinking."
"I agree," added another female friend who belonged to the secretarial department and had a better understanding of things than these people. "Vice President Ruan thought her petty plotting of creating hype around her scandal with Master Xian would land her the position of Madam Shui. But she forgot that Master Xian had never been the kind of person who could be easily tamed by some petty gossips. It didn't even affect him."
"That's what I thought," said the male colleague. "But I'd love to see Vice President Ruan's face right now. It'd be a sight to see."
"Oh, that reminds me. I haven't seen her in a long while."
The female employee from the secretarial department gave a mysterious smile as she told them, "I know why. It's because Master Xian kicked her far away to handle a project in another province."
"Really?"
She nodded. "It seemed she finally stepped on Master Xian's bottom line that day so he didn't even hesitate before asking her to leave."
"Haha! Serves her right!"
"You guys, don't talk about Vice President Ruan like that. She is also pitiful."
"I actually liked her a lot when I joined the company. I admired her business skills. But after interacting with her, I learned that besides her business skills, she had nothing to show. Especially her personality. A typical green tea! Makes me nauseous!"
"Why are we even discussing her? Shouldn't we be thinking about who is actually with Master Xian?"
This question reminded everyone of their original purpose for gathering around to gossip. How could they forget that? The identity of this mysterious partner of Master Xian was too appealing right now.
"Who do you think she is?"
"She could be a celebrity?
"Don't talk nonsense! Master Xian isn't a superficial person. He won't fall for a celebrity just because she is pretty."
"Someone said from her voice she sounded like a beautiful woman."
"Hahaha! You men can even tell how a woman looks with just her voice? What nonsense!"
"Still, considering our Master Xian, I don't think his partner would be worse than him."
"I hope so. If I have to watch our Master Xian with someone, I'd rather see him with someone who equally matches him."
"And where are you gonna find such a person?"
Ma Jin walked into Shui Xian's office after lunchtime and placed the file in front of him saying, "The company is rather busy today."
Shui Xian looked up at him, "Busy with what?"
"Gossips," answered Ma Jin. "You're the topic of the day."
"Oh?"
"No, I should say it's your mysterious partner who is the topic of the day."
Shui Xian's lips curled up, "So? Did anyone hit the mark?"
Ma Jin chuckled, "Master Xian, I don't think they could even have thought about that partner being President Raelle even in their wildest of dreams." He paused to observe Shui Xian's expressions and seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, he added, "In fact, someone also started a bet."
This got Shui Xian's interest piqued. "A bet?"
Ma Jin nodded his head.
"Who are the candidates?"
"Since they can't narrow down on candidates, they are betting on your partner's profession." He actually felt amused by these happenings in the company right now. He didn't think these white-collar workers would actually find something like this to amuse themselves. "Surprisingly, no one has placed a bet on her being a businesswoman."
"Really?"
"They think you would not want to be with someone from the same profession."
"How naive!" commented Shui Xian. "It seems all of them have too much leisure time on hand to even come up with something like this."
Ma Jin sucked in a breath as he waited for Shui Xian to say something.
Surprisingly Shui Xian didn't try to make things difficult for anyone today. Instead, he said, "Forget it. They are having fun. I shouldn't take away their happiness."
Ma Jin breathed out when he heard that.
"Did you place a bet?" questioned Shui Xian.
Ma Jin lowered his head and nodded, "I'm the only one who voted for businesswoman."
"Then wouldn't everyone know the right answer? Since you're my personal assistant, they'd know that your answer is the right answer."
Ma Jin shook his head, "The bet is anonymously done. They don't know it's me."
"It's even anonymously done? Wow! I never knew my employees were this creative." He sighed out, "Well, then, good luck on getting the biggest prize from the bet."
"That's what I'm hoping for."
"Why? I'm not paying you enough?"
Ma Jin was startled when he heard that and shook his head immediately, "No, no! That's not what I meant."
