Romance Of Flame And Ice Chapter 113

They sipped their coffee gently as they relished the mixed taste of the coffee, he had almost forgotten that he was almost frozen on the way to his company, drinking that hot coffee made him remember what it feels like to be warm again.
He placed the cup on the table gently and reclined the chair while he rested his back on it.
His thoughts went back to the time he decided to visit the company, at that moment, he wasn't really thinking of taking control of his company again, he judged wanted to see how his father's empire was doing but after what he experienced at the reception, he was sure that the company needed him.
His aunt and uncle already have their own corporation to manage so it wouldn't have been easy for them to oversee the company on his behalf and as such, they wouldn't be able to pay much attention to the management of the company.
"Han Chen, are you really going to manage your company personally or were you joking?" Roy asked as he placed the teacup on the table while Shi Fen followed suit.
"Why don't you make a guess" Han Chen replied in a mysterious tone, Roy smirked at his answer and lifted the teacup to his lips, after taking a gentle sip, he placed it on the table and faces him.
"Based on my understanding of you in the military, you don't hate the idea of having to manage your company, you just don't want to manage your company because it reminds you of your parent and after what you experienced today, you will definitely come back to manage the company" Roy answered with confidence resounding in his voice.
"You sound like you are but what makes you think that despite my carefree life in the military, I will return to manage my company," Han Chen asked, he raised the teacup to his lips and sipped gently before placing it on the table.
"Since I have known you, you have never been able to endure the urge to fix something that is wrong as long as you can, how can you allow the company your father painstakingly built go wrong, am I wrong?" Roy answered.
Han Chen smiled crookedly and came out of his seat, he pulled off his shirt leaving only a black singlet on him.
"You are indeed right but once I am done, I will leave the company to my aunt again"

"Whatever you say, Shi Fen and I have to report to the barracks today so we would be leaving soon"
"I forgot to ask the dude for his phone to call Yu Yan"
"Don't you think she would be busy, are you sure you want to stress her out?" Shi Fen asked
"If she can't come then I will return alone, both of you had better leave quickly"
"Wait…there is something I need to clarify, you are still giving us the cars right," Shi Fen asked
"If I am in a good mood by the time I return home if Yu Yan can't come then the both of you should just forget about the car" Han Chen answered.
"You can't decide it like that, you didn't say that when we agreed to come here with you," Roy said with his voice raised, he was definitely out betting his chances on a surgeon who is supposedly busy all day long.
"Do you want those peeping toms to hear our conversation?"
"It would be better if they do, you are the dignified chairman of the Han Corporation but your promise means very little to you," Roy said
"That is the correct attitude a businessman should have, the both of you had better dress up, unless you want to give the major general a reason to dismiss you"
A few minutes later, they had all gotten dressed in the suits the managing director got for them, they glanced weirdly at themselves with confused expressions on their faces.
"I can't remember the last time I wore a suit," Roy said
"Even I but we have to make do with it" Han Chen answered
"Roy, we have to leave now," Shi Fen said with his eyes fixed on the wall clock in the office.
The left the office with their eyes still rolling around their body, they raised their head only too see all the staffs outside the office staring at them, they both stood at a point and glanced around with confusion written on their faces.
"They are very handsome"
"They were so cool in the video"
"How can they be so good looking in a suit"
"Can you girls behave yourself, they are still here"
"Shut up, you are just jealous of them"
Roy and Shi Fen stood in front of them in confusion while they fried amongst themselves.
"They must have been stunned by our handsome looks," Shi Fen said in a proud manner

"Don't be stupid, they mentioned something about the video"
"Do you think they saw the video" Shi Fen asked with his eyes widened.
"I….think they did"
"We are in trouble then"
"What do you mean, we did a good thing by helping the civilians"
"...and we are being promoted in the media" Shi Fen added
"That is true, I have to admit forgotten about that, if the general manager hears about this, it will be troublesome for us, Weber to get to the barracks," Roy said. Both of them rushed out while the female staffs followed after them until they got into the elevator.
Meanwhile, the managing director rushed into the office with a tablet in his hand…
"Chairman, you need to see this," he said and moved close to Han Chen.
"You don't have to show me anything today, I am not handling the company affairs yet," Han Chen said
"It is not that, there is a video of you and your friends exploring the hot search"
"What are you talking about? Let me see" Han Chen said in confusion, the general manager passed the tablet to him, his eyes widened at the sight of the video playing, he hadn't expected the video to go viral so soon.
He scrunched his face and furrowed his brows as he watched the video, the managing director didn't understand the meaning behind the expression on his face, he had originally shown him the video thinking that he would be happy to see himself being presented as a national hero but he actually has such a look on his face.
"This is really troublesome, if our foreign enemies find us with this video, it will be really troublesome, I need to speak to the major general" Han Chen said in a low voice which wasn't quite audible for the managing director.
He stood up abruptly and was about to leave the office but he sat back when a thought flashed into his head, he had a broad smile carved on his lips as he sat down, he raised the tablet again to his eyes and dropped it after a while with his lips tilted into a charming smile.
"Chairman, are you alright?" the managing director asked in confusion, he couldn't explain the reason for the change in his expression and his behaviour...
"hundred per cent alright...do you think she will see this video?" he asked with his fingers caressing his chin.
"I...I don't know who you are talking about but almost everyone in the country has seen the video" the managing director answered.
"Let me use your phone," Han Chen said then the director brought out his phone from his pocket without hesitating or asking any other question, Han Chen dialled her number on his phone and placed the phone on his hear as he anticipated hearing the sound of her voice.
"Hello, who is this?" a voice said
"You still haven't changed this habit of yours," Han Chen said with an excited smile on his lips at the sound of her voice but he concealed it by speaking calmly.
"Han Chen!"
"How did you know it was me, did you miss me that much?"
"Stop the nonsense and tell me why you called me"
"I am stranded please can you pick me up with my car," Han Chen asked, he bit his lower lips and rubbed his index finger and thumb together hoping that she would agree to his request.
"You didn't say I was going to become your chauffeur in exchange for the car," Yu Yan said without any hesitation, he could sense the coldness in her voice but he wasn't planning on giving up
"I am really left with no choice, I don't have my phone or wallet with me and I am currently at Shuyin district with no means of transport, please do me a favour" Han Chen persisted.
"You must be kidding, aren't you busy with being a national hero, how come you are stranded at Shuyin district, are the cars in your garage just for display?" Yu Yan asked, he couldn't understand why seemed so angry when speaking to him but he concluded that he must have done something to anger her.
"My car ran out of fuel....."
"Chairman, there are lots of cars in the company, I can instruct someone to drive you ho..." he hadn't completed his statement before Han Chen stepped on his foot to shut him up and placed his index finger on his lips.
"Who is that?" Yu Yan asked.

Hugh Johnson and the Seven Evil Alts
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Hugh Johnson was having a bad day.
