Because little girl was hidden by the shopping bags, she too did not get a clear view of the woman standing in front.

Bolin moved his weight from one leg to the other. "Ou Xinyi"

Miss ou smiled and greeted back. "Good afternoon boss."

He glanced at her outfit from up to down and frowned. "Do you work here?"

"Part time yes." She replied and proceeded to walk away but Bolin used his body to block her path pushing Duoduo to one side with his actions.

"Cant we talk? Are you quitting?"

She immediately shook her head. "Big boss has placed us on sick leave and we still have a few days. I just decided to gather some money within the time."

There was no way she in her right senses would quit the only job that accepted her the way she was. How many bosses are like Bolin who would put up with every stupid thing she did?

"Ehhmm..." he started. "How about I buy you lunch?"

Miss Ou gave him a fleeting smile and glanced at the bags he was holding. Why did it feel like those bags moved just now?

"No boss. Thank you but my lunch period is over." Her eyes glanced at the shopping bags again. "Were you shopping from the kids section?"

He quickly replied. "Yes yes. Infact Miss Long has been pursuing me for marriage so I am escaping from her rright now..she is really something else. A trouble some woman she is." He added a smile at the end.

She shook her head and thought for a while before talking. "Oh so I leave for a few days and you are marrying someone else?"

Before Bolin could reply, Duoduo spoke up instantly. "I want to sit."

Stupid Bolin had almost forgotten that Duoduo was there until he heard her tiny voice. He quickly walked over to a nearby chair and dropped the bags on the floor before placing the girl to sit. This time Duoduo and miss Ou got to see each other.

She smied at Miss ou and waved her hands. The little girl was already so tired of shopping so she simply laid on the chair and closed her eyes to sleep.

Shocked Miss Ou was still staring at the girl who was sleeping when she whipped her head to Bolins direction. "I leave for a few days and you are already married with a child."

Bolin quickly shook his head. "No no not like that"

"Then like how? Where did the grown up child come from?" She cried.."and she looks like you and is so cute." She whined.

Bolin walked closer to her stopping a step away. Knowing Miss Ou she might move back if he took another step forward. "She is my niece and her name is Duoduo."

Miss Ou rolled her eyes. "Where will a grown up niece come from? Big boss doesn't have a child yet neither does your brothers. Have you always had a child outside but didnt tell me?" She questioned.

Never in Ou Xinyis life would she have thought that cute and innocent and patient Bolin was just like other men. He wanted to be with her but he already had a child outside somewhere. Was he trying to play two women at once. God forbid that she would be with someone like that. Looks were indeed decieveing and she had almost fallen for Bolins trick of being the only innocent and caring man in her life.

"My second bother has arrived. Little Fool brought her and we..." he lowered his voice since he had been agitated while talking. "We dont know yet who the father is." He finished in a whisper.

Miss ou glanced at the sleeping girl and sighed. She tried to calm her mind before talking. "And am I supposed to believe that?"

Bolin toon a brave step forward and grabbed her by the arms surprising Miss Ou and making her gasp. "Believe it or not the child is my niece. If you cant believe that she belongs to my brothers why then will you think she is mine? Its unfair." he told her.

Miss Ou was starting to feel uncomfortable from the touch and tried to wriggle out but Bolin didnt let her go. She later accepted defeat and spoke. "You said Miss Long wants to marry you."

Bolin smiled and moves her closer to himself leaving only a few inches. This was the closest he had had her. The last time it happened Miss Ou wasnt in her right sense. "You know Miss Long is just as shameless as Big sister. She is only kidding. She likes Mr Li and I already told her...." he paused and looked into her eyes. "I like you and I am going to marry you."

She stares back at him before replying.."I thought you never wanted to get married?"

Which was true, Bolin had endless lists of girlfriends but was never once serious in a relationship. She knew it was so his parents wouldn't think he was gay and they wouldnt have to start worrying that both their sons are good for nothing who wouldn't bring a woman home. But ever since the big boss got married, he had disposed of the flings and was now more serious with his private life. And when she says more serious with his private life, she meant he became more serious with her.

"Well..." he lowered the tone of his voice and almost whidpered.."I thought you never wanted to get married."

This caught her off guard again.."Why would you not want to get married because you think I dont want to get married?"

He responded with a smile. "When the one whom you want isnt ready, do you just go ahead and pick anyone else?" She twitches her lip and he answers his own question. "No."

"Boss..." Miss Ou calls starting to feel weak in her legs.

If the place they were hadnt been surrounded by clothes, their position and closeness would be a scandal on the papers the following day, if not that very day.

Miss Ou knew the child was not his but she simply wanted to know if he had any other woman somewhere. Of course she saw the news of his brother returning and had wanted to call him but as they werent on great talking terms she decided against it.

Bolin released her and flashed her a smile. Ever since they started to work together, she had never thought of having any romantic relationships with her boss. She knew he was damn good looking but she simply never saw him like that. To her he was just a boss and a friend. Someone with a whole lot of patience whom she knows she is lucky to have

"Boss...." she called again. "Our relationship, will it not affect our work life?"

Bolin quickly responded. "Since when has it ever affected our work life?"

She tried to clarify. "I mean now that its involving romantic affairs."

Bolin was yet to get the hint and replied. "Peoppe already think we are in a romantic relationship all these while."

"But they know we arent because of my boyfriends and your girlfriends."

He nods his head and thought for a while before staring at her in awe. "You...you.."

Miss Ou realised he just got the hint of what she saying and smiled. She really finds him adorable most times. "I...boss.. " she did not even know exactly what she wanted to say but just needed to say something to lessen the already awkward situation.

Bolin held her hands and stares again. "Ou Xinyi...thank you" he then pulled her into a tight hug which almost squeezed Miss Ou and left her surprised.

She was never comfortable with so much physical contact with men like this. One reason for most her breakups.

Bolin realised what he had done and released her. "Sorry sorry....its just. Thank you"

She smiled and asked him in a shy voice. "So we are really in a romantic relationship now?"

"Yes."

She giggled and twirled on her own. "Its exciting. Having an office affair with the boss."

Bolin too nods his head agreeing to what she said. "It is. You cant call me boss outside of work though."

She pouts. "I have always called you boss."

"Before I became your boyfriend." He reminded and a small blush formed on her cheeks as she stares at the floor.

"Ok. I will think of it."

"You should." He grabbed her palm and looks at it. "I really like you."

"Oh..." she did not know what to say to that. She knew he likes her and right now she was feeling the thrill that came with it. She wasnt even sure if she likes him back the way he likes her.

"You can take your time. No rush."

She nods again and stares at the floor. Bolin thought about Miss Long and he felt a certain peace of mind. He would have to let her know and warn her man to be that he now has a girlfriend and so she wasnt allowed to pass picking lines on him again. He could not even imagine being with Miss Long. That shameless woman who is just like his big sister in law.

He remembered his big sister in law and felt guilty somehwere in his mind. His romance was going well now that she was gone. Is this the right time for his romance to bloom? He suddenly felt as if he was cheating on her.
