Hello, Mr Li Chapter 220
Advertisement
Every now and then, Minde's eyes looked at Eva's office door.
It frustrated him that she had been snubbing him like he didn't exist.
During the welcome party they held for him in a bar last friday, she hadn't bothered to appear there, claiming she had something to do.
She always kept to herself and it made him difficult for him to see her at all.
Should he just tell her he was Li Minde?
If he did, he knew it was going to be over for him. Maybe this was the time to actually prove to everyone that people could fall for his charms whether he was Li Minde or Eric Wu.
The thoughts occupied his head till it was time for Lunch.
Even after every one left, he stayed back in the office with his gaze still fixed on Eva's door.
He summoned the courage to go see her inside her office.
It really hurt his pride that she wasn't paying attention to him.
They were five other women who worked in the PR department. Three of which were married. For the other two single women, one was a lot older than him, probably in her mid thirties and the other looked like she was around his age grade.
Both single women didn't even spare a second glance at him. It didn't bother him that much. The only thing that bothered him was Kim Eva's indifference.
According to what he heard from the others, Eva was probably about two or three years older than him. And he guessed she was a single workaholic.
But it didn't matter. He wanted to know her.
He wondered why he was becoming very nervous as he gradually approached her office door.
"I am Li Minde. The wonderful Li Minde" He continued to chant under his breath and lifted his hand to knock on the door. But before his hand could land, the door suddenly opened.
Minde gasped in shock and placed a hand on his chest. "You startled me" He blurted out and tried to steady his breath before remembering he was supposed to act cool.

He cleared his throat awkwardly and looked at her.
As usual, she looked pretty in her grey colored business skirt suit which was slightly above her knees. With her hair tied in a ponytail.
Even with the black heel she was wearing, he felt pleased that he was still very much taller than her.
He noticed she was wearing a purple lipstick now unlike when she entered the office in the morning.
'Seems like she did a little face touchup before coming out. Is she trying to look pretty for me?' Minde thought excitedly.
He knew quite well how women behaved. He has had his fair share of women so he understood perfectly how they acted when they were trying to seduce a man.
Many of the women he went out with always excused themselves with the excuse of using the restroom but after they returned, their faces looked brighter and more colourful.
Then, they begin to give him those coquettish smiles that pissed the hell out of him.
"Can I help you?" Eva raised a brow at him and asked when he wasn't saying anything.
Minde came back to his senses and tried to say something but nothing came out.
"Ehm... The thing is... Well..."
He looked around and noted that it was just the two of them there so he blurted out.
"Everyone's out for Lunch. I wanted to remind you it was time for Lunch." He said.
"So why aren't you going out like the rest?" She asked before moving out of her office and shutting the door behind her.
"I just..."
"I have a business to attend to. If you're not hungry then you can just get busy."
She quickly scuffled out of the office when she was done speaking.
Minde looked at her back and pouted. "I thought she was looking pretty for me. Is she going out on a date by chance?"
His gaze narrowed before the silly thought popped into his head to tail her. He was going to see the bastard she was looking pretty for.

"You and your daughter look really pretty. Someone might think you are twins" A young saleslady said to Changyu with a polite smile.
Seeing the woman enter with a younger woman, they both didn't just look alike, even their hairstyles and the way they walked were very similar.
Anyone who had eyes could easily tell they were related.
Changyu smiled sheepishly before looking at Sara awkwardly. Sara didn't seem to mind but just smiled back.
How nice would it have been to have mother. Sara thought.
How nice would it have been that she was really here with her mother?
For someone to mistake someone like Changyu as her mother, she felt like she had hitten a jackpot.
What if Changyu was really her mother? The woman was pretty. She was influential and she was super cool!
She didn't know the kind of woman her father liked but...what if she tried to ship them together?
She almost laughed at that thought.
She wasn't sure Changyu would like someone like her father. She also wasn't sure about her father liking her.
Suddenly, Mr Park's words resounded in her ears...
"You see, Your mother worked as a cleaner in your grandparent's restaurant. She was loved by everyone because of her cheerful nature. That was when your grandparents took note of her. They noticed she loved the kitchen but could not afford being a part of it. So, your grandfather took her in as his apprentice. About a month later, when your father returned from school and became your Grandmother's apprentice, your grandmother also took in a new apprentice. A lady. I guess both ladies began to fight for your Father's affection."
Sara's smile widened in joy when she remembered. She had asked him if the lady was a Song and he had said she was.
'Oh my! If that's true then that's wonderful.'
Was that the reason she had collapsed in front of their apartment the other day? Was she still hung up on her first love which so happened to be her father Was that why she never got married?
Sara asked herself.
She had the urge to ask Changyu right now. To ask her about her father. If she still liked him. What happened between them?
But... she was very sure that something was up. What if she was the person her father and Aunt wanted her to stay away from? What if she was the devil that they both hated?
"I'm sorry President. She is new so she didn't know who you were."
Sara came back to her senses when she saw a man who looked like the manager, apologizing to Changyu on behalf of the saleslady.
The other sales personnel all knew Changyu wasn't married neither did she have a child. They had also been surprised to see her with a young lady that looked like her so they didn't blame the saleslady for her mistake.
"It's fine. We came to shop. You can just go about your thing and act like I'm not here" Changyu said to the both of them with a smile before turning to Sara.
"Sorry about that. Must have been pretty awkward for you" She apologized.
Sara shook her head. "It's fine. It's an honour to be called your daughter. It's so exciting" Sara said happily which caused her to laugh.
She didn't mind actually. In fact, she felt it was nice to be called Sara's mother.
What if she was actually shopping with her daughter right now?
What if Sara was her daughter?
She smiled sadly before shaking the thought out of her head.
She believe in miracles but this one....was impossible.
