The Revenge Turned To Love

The accidental pull by Mishi brought their faces close. They both stared at each other for a while when Mishi's phone started ringing this, breaking their eyelock. Mishi immediately released her grip from the tie, took out her phone from her sling bag and found it was of Mark.

Mishi answered Mark's call. "Yeah, I'm in Maximus. I'm in Mr Xian's cabinet," replied Mishi, looking at Xian who was adjusting his tie. After talking for a few more minutes, she hung up the call. 

Turning to Xian, Mishi said, "Sorry for that." 

"It's fine. You don't need to apologize," said Xian when Mishi grabbed the other bag and told him to check that. Xian nodded and looked inside the bag. There was a mini cacti inside the bag. He took that out and looked at the cacti amusingly.

"It's cute," said Xian with a smile. 

"It symbolizes endurance and spirit," said Mishi with a smile. Xuan put the mini pot there and again thanked her. "I'll keep my spirit up for my profession," said Xian with a smile.

"It felt good that you liked these. Thank you once again for saving me. You should learn how to tie a knot," said Mishi and got up from the couch. Xian nodded and too got up with her. 

"Oh! I almost forgot to ask. Is your hand okay, now?," asked Mishi looking at Xian's hand.

"Hmm. It's okay. Please take care of your foot," said Xian and then gently grabbed Mishi's arm. "Don't put too much pressure on your left leg, else it won't heal quickly," stated Xian. 

"Okay. I think I should leave. It was nice talking to you," said Mishi with a warm smile. 

"Same. Mishi, how are you going? I mean will Chang come to take you?," asked Xian. 

"Driver will come from the home in a while. Thanks once again for saving me," saying this Mishi was ready to leave from there when Xian offered her a ride. 

"If you don't mind, I will drop you home," muttered Xian.

"No, no. Please continue with your work here. I'll go. You don't need to.." Xuan didn't let Mishi complete the words. 

"Mishi, I won't listen to you. I'll drop you home. That way I will be less worried. You came to thank me so it's like my responsibility," opined Xian.

"Okay. Then, why don't we do one thing," murmured Mishi. 

"What?," asked Xian curiously, gazing at her. 

"You should complete your work. Your Secretary, Mr Wei told me you have joined the work after a month so it's like you've so much work to do. So, you should first complete your work then you can drop me home," stated Mishi, keeping the gentle smile.

"Ahh, okay. I'll complete my work. But it can take time," said Xian, looking at his desk which was full of files. 

"It's fine. You should start," said Mishi. Xian nodded and then made her sit on the sofa. After that he went to his desk and continued the left work. 

As Xian was immersed in work, Mishi read a novel at that time. When she was tired she looked at Xian who was still working. She laid her head back on the sofa and fell asleep in awhile. 

In the late noon, Xian's work was completed so he called Li Wei, telling him to take those files. As soon as he raised his head to look at Mishi, he saw she was sleeping soundly. 

He walked near her. Some hair strands were on her face due to which frowns formed on Mishi's forehead. For a while, Xian only stared at her. He then leaned down to her. With his index finger, Xian stroked away the hair strands which were disturbing the sleep of Mishi. 

He gently grabbed the crook of Mishi's neck and made her lay down on the couch. He then went to the small room in his office and took out a blanket from there. Putting over Mishi, he said, "You don't recognise me. How will I get to know if we were related in the past or not?," murmured Xian.

Zhao Bin in the hotel was done with his work when he decided to call Mishi and have a talk with her. He was sitting on a comfy couch, with his legs one above the other. 

"Why isn't she picking her call up?," murmured Zhao and again called her but Mishi didn't answer his call. 

"I should ask Chang," murmured Zhao and dialled his number but he also didn't answer his call. Getting irritated, he called at Mishi's home when the housemaid answered the call who told her that Mishi had gone to meet the man who saved her in the birthday party.

This ruined Zhao's mood and he threw away his phone in anger. The phone hit against the wall and broke into pieces. "Why? I know it's all Chang's planning. He doesn't want me to get close with her, not only that he took Mishi there. Their memories are gone now, then why?," shouted Zhao in anger. 

Bai who reached his office, a moment ago when he threw his phone heard everything. She got inside and said, "can't you see they are trying hard to make them close." 

Hearing her voice, Zhao immediately turned to her. "What are you doing here? Get out of my office," yelled Zhao. Bai smiled cunningly and then walked closer to him. 

"Zhao, don't be hyperactive to see me. I just want you to see with Mishi. More than 8 years has passed but you aren't able to make her yours. Now, when an opportunity comes you are just letting it go? 

In the party you, they both were praised by everyone. What if Xian and Mishi got their memories back? You won't be able to make Mishi yours," stated Bai.

"Don't persuade me with your cunning talks," grunted Zhao.

Bai laughed hearing him. The next moment she was serious with an evil look on her face. "Zhao, don't ever use such words for me. It won't take me time to tell your truth to everyone," muttered Bai under his breath. 

"What do you mean?," asked Zhao.

"The truth of your identity," replied Bai. "Well, that doesn't concern me. The main point here's how to make Mishi yours completely," stated Bai. 

"Why are you so desperate to do this?," questioned Zhao.

"Don't you want to get close with her?," asked Bai, looking into Zhao's eyes.

"I want to," replied Zhao.

"So, Zhao for that you've to make sure that Mishi signs the divorce papers. They are still married on the papers. We have to make them divorce first so that they won't be able to get close with each other in this birth," muttered Bai. 

"But how? I mean…," murmured Zhao.

"Mishi trusts you a lot. She's like the Brutus of the play 'Julius Caesar' who used to think everyone is truthful and honest like him. Just take her sign at any cost. The rest things I'll handle on my own," said Bai and forwarded her hand to shake hands with Zhao.

Zhao first hesitated but then he shook his hand with Bai. "I will take her signature. Xian always hurted her. They aren't made for each other. I can't see Mishi hurt anymore," said Zhao with concern.

"Don't worry, Zhao. Mishi will be yours forever once we will submit their divorce papers and Xian will be mine," said Bai and smiled. Zhao agreed to her.

Mishi's sleep broke in the late evening when she found a blanket over herself. She immediately got up and realized she fell asleep in Xian's office. Xian who was doing some work on the desktop saw her. 

"Why didn't you wake me up?," complained Mishi. Xian didn't answer for a while and after completing his work within ten minutes, he walked towards her.

"You were sleeping soundly so I thought not to disturb you. Did I do something wrong?," asked Xian. Mishi put her legs down and put on the slipper when Xian helped her. 

He grabbed her sling bag from the table and handed it to her. They then left the office. In the elevator, Mishi told Xian that Chang will come to pick her up, to which Xian told her that he has already talked with him.

"I won't harm you. Don't be afraid of me," said Xian and looked at her. 

"No, I wasn't thinking this. I don't want to disturb you," murmured Mishi. Xian smiled and said, "I'm not disturbed." They reached the ground floor, in the parking lot. Xian made Mishi sit inside the car and then went to the driver seat. 

Mishi was pulling the seat belt when Xian saw her. A smile escaped from his lips and he leaned closer to her. Mishi was startled by his act as her lips were inches away from Xian's face when Xian tightened the seat belt around her. 

He was going to get back when Mishi's lips brushed against the surface of Xian's lips. Immediately Xian turned his head towards her as her lips were like an electric shock for him. Their eyes again locked with each other's gaze.
