They Were Meant To Be Together | Book 4

659.Was he really very late?

Jeonsan smacked Wonwoo's forehead and frowned, "Which world are you in? Didn't you hear what I said? I said the meeting is with the executive department. They are preparing a presentation on-"

Cutting Jeonsan off, Wonwoo vigorously nodded his head, "Don't worry big bro, I got this."

Jeonsan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Okay so what is going on?"

Wonwoo shrugged his shoulders and vigorously shook his head. "Nothing bro."

Staring at him for quite some time, Jeonsan added, "Hmm, just take care of everything and don't bother me."

.....

Inside the room.

Grabbing her hand, Zixin took a deep breath. "I know there are many things that you want to ask me and I also know that I messed everything up but I swear, for all the years we have been apart, there isn't a single day when I do not think about you. I missed you alot but no matter what I couldn't come back. There were many things I had to deal with first and I didn't want to drag you there with me. I didn't want to risk your life Yuqi because you are the most important person in my life. I can lose my life but not you."

When Yuqi did not say anything, Zixin panicked. "I know I have wronged you and you can punish me for that but please don't give up on us, please."

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Yuqi got up and asked, "Did you eat anything?"

When Zixin shook his head, Yuqi walked out of the room.

After Yuqi left, Zixin frowned. He was expecting her to fire him up with different kinds of questions but she was way too calm and quiet than he had expected her to be.

Why was she acting so strangely? Did she already give up on them? Or did she not want him anymore? Was he really very late?

Zixin frowned and vigorously shook his head. How could that be? She was so concerned and anxious for him a while ago. It was clear that she still cared about him.

Jiyun's cabin.

"Wait what?" Jiyun asked.

Jeonsan gulped in nervousness and vigorously nodded his head. "Yes tonight, I'll fetch you from your place at 7."

"Where are we going?" Jiyun asked.

"It's a bit far from here."

"Ahh so we are not coming back?" Jiyun asked.

When Jeonsan vigorously nodded his head, Jiyun smiled. Walking towards him, Jiyun asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Jeonsan scratched his forehead and said, "Hmm you'll have to wait for that."

"Alright, I'll be ready by 7."

.....

Jeon Corporation.

Meeting room.

Sitting inside the meeting room a little ahead of time, Wonwoo was tapping his fingers on the table impatiently waiting for the executive department members' arrival.

Just then, Wonwoo's assistant Karina entered the room.

"Where are the employees?" Wonwoo asked.

"Sir the meeting will start in 15 minutes." Karina informed.

Wonwoo frowned and glanced at his watch. How could he wait for another 15 minutes to see her? He had been wanting to see her and was also dying to know her name but he also didn't want to seem desperate.

"Go ask them to come for the meeting now." Wonwoo ordered.

Karina nodded her head and left.

After sometime, the employee started entering the meeting room and politely greeted Wonwoo.

Looking around, Wonwoo frowned when he did not see the particular someone he wanted to.

Thinking that it was a waste coming to the office during a weekend and how he had wasted his time, Wonwoo's expression turned sour.

"Sir can we start?" Karina asked.

"Ehhh boss, actually the one who is supposed to give the presentation is not her yet so-"

Cutting the employee off, Karina lashed, "Who is it? Doesn't that person know that no one is allowed to be late for a meeting?"

The employee lowered her head and was about to say something when Wonwoo said, "Start the meeting now or else I'll adjourn the meeting. Whoever it is, don't let that person to enter the meeting room."

The employees gave each other a look wondering who would step forward and give a presentation on something they were not prepared for especially when their boss was in a very sour mood.

Just then someone barged into the meeting room.

"I am so sorry I-" Placing her hands on her chest, the woman panted heavily.

Karina frowned and shouted, "You are late, you cannot enter the meeting room now."

Trying very hard to catch a breath, the woman mumbled, "That...traffic....late...elevator....packed.....water."

Grabbing his bottle of water, Wonwoo got up and started walking towards her.

Passing her the water, Wonwoo said, "Here drink this, take it easy."

Gulping down the whole content at once, the woman breathed a sigh of relief.

Wonwoo smiled and asked, "Better?"

The woman nodded her head and smiled. "Thank you so much boss actually I was stuck in traffic and then the elevator was packed so I had to take the stairs and-"

Cutting her off, Wonwoo said, "It's alright, take your seat."

The woman smiled and nodded her head before walking towards her seat.

Wonwoo excitedly clapped his hands together and took a deep breath. His mood immediately brightened up after seeing her. Now all he had to do is find out her name.

Walking towards his seat, Wonwoo chuckled when he saw her arranging everything in a hurry.

"There is no need to rush, take your time." Wonwoo added.

"Boss I am almost done just-"

"No worries, take as much time as you want. No one is running away or is in a hurry."

Other employees: +_+

Wasn't boss asking them to hurry a few minutes ago? What happened now? Is the boss having mood swings?

After seeing the bright smile on Wonwoo's face, everyone started feeling less burdened and pressured.

After arranging everything, the woman got up. "I am ready boss."

"Are you sure? You can take more time if you want to." Wonwoo asked.

The woman shook her head and said, "I think I am ready."
