My Life As That Fat Girl

Chapter 7

I was the winner of the contest. Yay for me I guess.

When Mr. Chen stopped at my table and took the sample of my cake he looked as if I had just given him an awesome food-gasm. Which of course made me laugh at the very thought of that.

My sarcasm is because he asked me why I was laughing and I didn’t have an answer. Which is highly embarrassing. I’m pretty sure my entire face was red, like cake icing red.

“Your cake is most delicious..,” he looked at the name on my cart. “Ms. Oscar .” The way he said it made me want to faint, just so he would catch me and say it again. Which seemed very very teenager-ish. Which I am not. A teenager I mean. And pathetic because it was just my last name.

Ms. Base clapped happily, “Oh. Splendid. Universe employees Luna Oscar is our new Star Manager!”

My head whipped around. Star manager!? I had to welcome snotty business people when they came in for meetings and such. This was not going to work for me. Oh no not at all.

“But... Ms. Bas-,” I tried. But she cut me off. She tends to do that to many people a lot.

“Okay, Luna. You have the honor of showing Mr. Chen here around and making sure that he is comfortable,” Ms. Base grinned at me then at Mr. Chen, “I am most positive you’ll like the country, Mr. Chen.”

While she spoke with Mr. Chen I was fuming inside. How dare she do this?! Yes I know I am one of her best employees but honestly? I didn’t want to great all snotty business people who come to our business building. I don’t mind Mr. Chen though because he is exceptionally…well hot and manly looking.

Suddenly everyone began to walk out so I took my cart too and began to walk out too.

Ms. Base cleared her throat loudly. I assumed (not really just hoped) that she was doing that because she had a nasty cold so I kept on moving.

“Luna!” Ms. Base said sharply. I stopped and bit back a groan walking back over to Mr. Chen and Ms. Base.

“You will show Mr. Chen around and be a nice guide to him while we negotiate our plans for this business,” Ms. Base said sternly. “For all you know. He may just be your new boss so better suck up now then later.”

That caused me to remember that Mr. Chen was famous for doing just that. Becoming people’s new bosses because he bought companies, any kind of companies, and turned them upside down for the best.

But I don’t think our company needs to be tampered with. It’s fairly nice as it is.

Mr. Chen looked amused by my behavior, “Oh. Please,  Ms. Base. If I take over the business I don’t wish for the employees to call me by my last name,” his eyes flashed. I swear I nearly fainted on spot because of his ultra, sexy, voice.

“Ms. Oscar I would very much like if you would call me Shang,” He said with a tight smile.

I grinned that same business smile, “Oh yes. Of course Mr. Chen,” his eyes flashed and then narrowed. I continued on in the same monotone. “My name is Luna and I am the Universe manager along with being the Star Manager now.”

“Luna…,” It rolled off his tongue like a sin. God, he was so hot. “It is a pleasure to meet.”

“Mhm. The pleasure is all yours,” I froze after I said that. It was a comeback and I hadn’t thought before I’d spoken. Ohh god, what have I done?

Mr. Chen’s eyebrow rose and this time his smile looked a bit feral. Still sexy, but I think I just challenged him. “Of course, Luna.” He smirked, “Would you show me to my office?” he asked innocently. I didn’t think he had one once of innocence in him. “I have no idea where to go.”

“Of course, Mr. Chen.” I begin to walk. “Right this way.”

“Shang, Luna. Just Shang,” He said as we walked. It was a command really.

But I never really followed commands. It’s not in my big booty nature.
