I walked towards my office and little did I notice Emily following me. His smile... It was the only thing that played in my mind. That smile... It had the power to heal any kind of wounds, it had the power to revive the dead, it had the power to create miracles. His smile... I guess I'm getting addicted to it.

I walked in and took my seat and was brought out of daze only when Emily tapped the table twice.

"Wang Yibo! What are you thinking about? " She sounded cold.

"Mm? Nothing. "

"Are you sure? "

"You don't have to worry. Get back to work. "

Oh, Emily. Please don't disturb my thoughts. Let me enjoy the moment.

She rolled her eyes, irritation quite evident in them and strode out of my office after pulling the door behind her causing a loud bang. But, I was in no mood to care.

It was still 12 in the noon. How I wish time would run a bit faster so that I can get to see his angelic face. I really want to go in there and see him right now... But maybe this behavior of mine would lead to unnecessary gossipings. So... Fine... I'll wait.

I was busy the whole day studying files and signing contracts. But, not even once did he escape my mind. The work didn't burden me at all. May be his smiling face did the miracle.

The looked out at the city through the huge window and saw the sun fading away.

Yes!

It was finally time for me to see him. Hope he hasn't left yet.

I was about to leave when Yang dashed in. I don't know for what reason, but he had a worried look on his face.

"What's wrong? "

"Nothing. "

"Just tell it already. "

"Nothing, Yibo. I'm just tired. Shall we go? "

I was sure something was bothering him, but I didn't force the answer out of him. Whatever it is... He'll tell it to me for sure.

I just nodded and we got into the elevator. As it descended to the 5th floor, my heart beat like crazy.

Calm down, you silly heart.

I caressed my chest as a smile arose on my face. Yang looked in my direction and flashed me a smile which looked fake and sad.
Why? What's wrong with him?

I wanted to ask him, but my heart didn't let me do that. It leapt inside my chest as the doors opened revealing the person who has stolen it.

Xiao Zhan.

He walked in and joined us. Hope he doesn't hear the banging sound of my heart. Okay, it's time for me to strike a conversation, but the first thing that I gotta do is apologize to him on behalf of Emily and her stupid behavior.

"I'm sorry about Emily's behavior earlier. " I said.

"No, that's fine. I can understand. She likes you, so it's understandable that she's possessive. " He said in a calm voice which rather seemed broken and hurt.

What's wrong with him?
Did I miss something?
Did I do something wrong?

"But how do you know that she likes him? " Yang asked which made sense. How does he know?

"Ah--- I just guessed. Am I right? " He said.
It didn't seem like a guess though.

"Well, she does. But I have never once thought about her in that way. She's just a good friend of mine. So, you need not worry. " I said looking at him but he avoided my gaze.
