The City's Almighty System Chapter 9

Translator: Vicky

It was the first time Lin Wanqing experienced someone of the opposite sex holding onto her legs and even looked at them so closely. Xia Ming also sensed something so he coughed at once to cover up the awkwardness. Glancing at Lin Wanqing's delicate, small face, “Let me massage it for you. It may hurt a little in the beginning but you don't need to worry.”

“Ok.” Lin Wanqing nodded shyly and turned her head away from Xia Ming, not daring to look at him.

When Xia Ming's wide palm landed on her ankle, Lin Wanqing's frail body trembled. He seemingly sensed it but at this moment, he didn't have any solutions. Both his hands started to move around her ankle. 

“Hiss……“

His abrupt action also made her cry from the pain but very soon, she felt as if his hands possessed some magical powers. Heat transmitted from his hands and gave her ankle an unspeakable comfort.

Besides, those agile fingers of his pressed twice from time to time and with every press, she felt her ankled relaxed by a bit. She even felt that her ankle didn't hurt that much.

Lin Wanqing looked at Xia Ming who had all his attention concentrated on her and her small face turned rosy, with an unexplainable beauty. Unfortunately……when Xia Ming was concentrating all his attention on LIn Wanqing, he didn't find out her situation.

After roughly 10 minutes of massage, Xia Ming heaved a sigh of relief. At this time, Lin Wanqing's ankle was alleviated from the swell and he told her, “I'm done. Don't engage in any vigorous exercise these few days. You'll be fine after a few days.”

Lin Wanqing looked at her delicate legs in astonishment and she tried moving a bit to realize it didn't hurt anymore. This made her stare at him with wide eyes, unable to fathom and said, “Xia Ming, you really cured my leg? Don't tell me you have medical skills?”

“Let me tell you that there is nothing your husband can't do. An insignificant medical skill is naturally nothing difficult.” Xia Ming was very contented as if he liked being adored by the girl he liked.

Lin Wanqing rolled her eyes and told him, “I don't believe.”

“Ah……” Xia Ming said in grievance, “Why is the truth always hard to make someone believe it?”

“Because you are someone who is not easy to believe.” Lin Wanqing's good-looking face turned red again. Even she didn't know how many times she had blushed today but she felt that she had not blushed so many times in a long time, 

“Could it be that I have fell in love with him? No way?” Even Lin Wanqing was skeptical. The first time she saw him, she didn't have an ounce of impression on him but unknowingly, when Xia Ming fell from the sky today, she had a completely different impression of him.

She had never experienced the feeling of love and didn't know what was it like so she had a kind of unclear and unknown feeling towards him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have agreed to his unreasonable request earlier?

Sometimes, she felt that falling in love at first sight was something that existed only in TV dramas. Now that it has appeared in her life, it was hard to believe.

“GM Lin.”

At this moment, Wang Tao's voice rang and an urgent voice approached rapidly.

Lin Wanqing promptly turned serious and sat on her seat. Xia Ming also sensed it and smiled faintly to her and sat on a seat beside her afterward. When Wang Tao walked into the office, his eyes showed some shock.

Because he discovered another big hole in the office door which was obviously kicked by someone and for a moment, it made Wang Tao got serious, “Could it be there was a thief? But even so, it's unlikely for them to kick the door down? What exactly happened?”

“Or Xia Ming used force?”

Wang Tao's complexion turned cold when he thought until here. But at the same time, there was an inch of excitement deep down in his eyes. If Xia Ming dared to make a move on Lin Wanqing……the time had come for him to have a chance to do a good deed.

Wang Tao rushed inside and stood there afterwards, opening his hands up to do a defensive posture towards Xia Ming, and shouted, “Outrageous Xia Ming, in broad daylight……”

Before he could finish his sentence, his voice stopped in an instance and Xia Ming and LIn Wanqing stared at him in shock.

“What……TV drama is this?”

Just when Xia Ming was flabbergasted, Wang Tao's current appearance was really like the defensive posture in the TV drama when two people were battling. However, it was a bit comical when Wang Tao did it.

“Wang Tao, what are you doing?”

Seeing Wang Tao's abruptness, Lin Wanqing's good-looking face turned cold and couldn't help chiding him.

“GM……GM Lin……are you ok?”

Lin Wanqing's good-looking face turned cold like frost. walking towards Wang Tao with stern eyes. This made Wang Yao couldn't help but tremble.

“What? Do I look like something happened to me? Also, don't you know how to knock the door before coming in? Look at you, how do you look like a staff at all? Don't tell me you don't know any of this?' Lin Wanqing lost it and told him off.

“Ah……this……this……”

Wang Tao didn't know what to do in a short period of time and confronting Lin Wanqing's chide, he was a bit scared. She is an executive in this big company for so many years after all. The imposing manner of hers was not something that can be pretended and it was real.

Wang Tao asked trembling, “Just now, I saw GM Guo leaving in anger and I thought something happened to you. Oh, that's right, GM Lin.”

He said in a loud voice, “We officially start work at 8:00 but Xia Ming only arrived close to 10:00. He had totally violated the company's rule and I feel that such a person who does not comply with it, we should get rid of this scum.”

Following Wang Tao's blame on Xia Ming, Lin Wanqing's delicate face became more and more gloomy. If Xia Ming was late, she was eager for him to be late. Otherwise, she didn't know how she would be bullied by GM Guo, that old bastard.

And….. and she still had a good impression on Xia Ming. Wang Tao was obviously bumping onto the nozzle of a gun.

Just as expected, before Wang Tao could finish his words, Lin Wanqing told him calmly, “Are you done talking?”

A sentence of hers interrupted what he was going to say next and seeing her suddenly becoming calm, he couldn't help feeling scared in his heart. He stuttered, “Done…… done talking.”

“If you're done, get out immediately and write me a reflection. I want it in by afternoon.”

Lin Wanqing lost it all of a sudden and seeing her like this, even Xia Ming was surprised. She was like a young lady just now but turned into an elegant and imposing GM Lin now. Xia Ming couldn't think it through.

Could it be that girls are capricious?

The begin and after change was too fast?

For a moment, Xia Ming opened his eyes wide.

And Wang Tao lowered his head from being reprimanded and didn't dare say anymore. When Lin Wanqing allowed him to leave the office. he then left in embarrassment and muttered, “How did this happen? How did this happen? Why did GM Lin flare up at me? Clearly, it was Xia Ming who was late for almost two hours. In the usual days, didn't she hate anyone arriving late?”

He couldn't think of the reason. Lin Wanqing usually detested anyone arriving late and this was something known by everyone in the company. He intended to talk bad about Xia Ming in front of her today so that she could fire him. Who would have imagined he would invite trouble after rattling him and be reprimanded by her? Putting that aside, he still had to write a reflection. This……wouldn't be written like this on the script……

If he knew what would happen today, he absolutely wouldn't have done that. 

After Wang Tao left the office, Lin Wanqing was much eased. Xia Ming appeared to be scared and said, “My wife, you look scary when you're angry.”

“Hmmph, I'll treat you like this if you're disobedient.” Lin Wanqing looked at him in blame and pouted her lips. She looked extremely cute, with a typical young lady posture.

“I'll do as you said. In the future, if you ask me to head East, I would definitely not head West. If you ask me to head West, I would definitely not head East.” Xia Ming hurriedly made his intentions clear.

Seeing the amusing manner of Xia Ming, Lin Wanqing burst out into laughter. Her smile was just like lily flower blooming, it was very glorious and beautiful. Xia Ming was already blank from watching her and said, “My wife, you should smile more sometimes. You look really pretty when you smile.”

“Dream on.” Lin Wanqing curled her lips and told him.

“That's right.” She thought of something, “I heard that you arrived in the company at 9:30.”

All of a sudden, Lin Wanqing fixed her big eyes on Xia Ming and he tried to dodge it. He thought in grievance, “I'm to blame, I actually slept until 8:00 and there was a traffic jam on the way so I was late……Sighs……”

“Yes……that's about it……yes.” Xia Ming explained with a flickering gaze.

“Very well.”

Lin Wanqing suddenly had a change in manner, with mischievousness in her beautiful, big eyes. She told him, “Write me a reflection as well today and it can't be less than 10,000 words. If it's lesser than that, watch how I will deal with you. Besides that, because you were late for two hours, according to the company's system, 500 is deducted from your salary for being late for an hour. But since you are sincere in admitting your mistakes, I'll just deduct 1,000 from you today.”

“Ah……my wife, don't. You can ask me to write a reflection but don't deduct my salary.” Xia Ming couldn't help it after hearing she would deduct his salary.

He was now impoverished and going to be penniless soon, not even being able to afford his meal. If his salary was deducted too, how was he going to survive later on?
