VAMPIRE NEXT DOOR 🧛🏻‍♂️ [Slow update]

Chapter 7

Wang Yibo was standing in front of the CEO's office carrying a box containing his office things. He is hesitating whether he should knock or not, as he is not ready to face Xiao Zhan for now. 

Wang Yibo huffed a very, very deep breath and shut his eyes so tight as well as clenching his fist before throwing one hard knock. 

Thud!!!
"Ouch!"

Yibo instantly opened his eyes wide and gasped. Xiao Zhan was rubbing his forehead. 

"Bo-Di, it's the second time you knock on my forehead, do I look like a doorframe to you?" Xiao Zhan remarks while he rubs his forehead which is already a little bit swollen. 

Yibo laughs internally and his annoyance for him subsides a little.

"I'm sorry Mr. CEO, I didn't mean to knock on your forehead."

He bows his head half-sincere. He still has not forgiven him.

"It's fine Bo-Di, get in first." 

Xiao Zhan gave way for Wang Yibo to pass into his office 

Yibo was stunned and frowned at the same time seeing the luxurious yet too-dark interior design of the CEO's office. The windows were closed, and thick red curtains were attached.

The room was a combination of the black and red motif and there were two desks inside the room 

"That is your desk Bo-Di."

Xiao Zhan pointed to the table near the window perpendicular to his. 

"Thank you, Mr. CEO," replied Yibo and turned his heels in the direction of his assigned desk. He put down the box he was carrying and began arranging his stuff.

"Bo-Di stopped calling me Mr. CEO when we were alone, I am still your Zhan-ge."

Xiao Zhan followed him on his table, still caressing his throbbing forehead.

"I'm sorry Mr. CEO, but that is the proper etiquette of addressing you as my superior." 

Wang Yibo remarked politely. Xiao Zhan's brows knitted and his eyes narrowed.

"Bo-Di, are you mad at me?"

"Why should I, Mr. CEO?" Yibo lifted his face but pursed his lips, stifling the laughter from breaking out seeing Xiao Zhan's slightly reddened swell on the forehead. 

"By the way, I will get you an ice pack for the bump on your forehead." Yibo turned to a stoic and cold demeanor. 

Yibo was about to go out but Xiao Zhan held his arm.

"Bo-Di, please, I could feel you're mad with me. Care to tell me why, please?" 

Xiao Zhan turns into a puppy, but Yibo remains stoic.
"Mr. CEO, is there a reason for me to be mad at you?"
"Bo-Di, why are you acting like this?"
"Like what, Mr. CEO?" 

"This. That… The way you're behaving right now. Is it because I didn't tell you beforehand about me as the new CEO of the company? Or is it because I transferred you here as my Secretary? If that is so, I'm so sorry, please, Bo-Di."

Yibo gape at the floor.

"Mr. CEO, I will go get the ice pack, please let go of my arm." 

Xiao Zhan sighed and let go of Yibo's arm. Yibo goes to the pantry to get an ice pack.

"Just what's wrong with him? Why is he acting weird? What did I do so wrong? Does he hate to work with me?" Xiao Zhan sat back on his swivel chair and spun it faster and faster as his mind was puzzled thinking about Wang Yibo and why he was acting so cold.
