Lunch is ready

Xing Chuan shrugged and the two men turned towards Yu Chen, who pouted and spoke, "Chuan declined my offer for lunch."

Si Xia turned to look at Xing Chuan. Chuan expected a scolding coming, he had already seen enough to know that President Xi dotted on Miss Chen.

But Xia simply said, "Great work Chuan. You can go back to the company now." before turning back to his laptop.

Xing Chuan: "....."

Yu Chen: "...."

Chen stomped her foot and snatched Xia's laptop. She held it over her head and spoke, "Tell him to have lunch with us!!"

"Or what!?" Xia asked, challenging Yu Chen.

Chen smiled devilishly and spoke, "Or you won't get any lunch either."

Si Xia: "....."

Xing Chuan: *internally* "What kind of a couple were these two?"

Xia stared at Chen before sighing, "Fine! Chuan, stay for lunch." "Anything else, my queen?" he asked, turning to Yu Chen and reaching for his laptop.

Chen beamed as she placed the laptop back on Xia's lap and kissed his forehead.

"Yeah. What do you want for lunch?" she asked.

Si Xia thought and replied, "Anything other than sea food."

"Why not sea food?" Chen asked with a tilt of her head.

"Because you shouldn't eat sea food during your period. Now go on." Xia replied, not even looking up from his work.

Warmth spread across Chen's heart as she stroked Xia's hair before skipping out of his room.

Xing Chuan stood at the door, unsure of what to do.

"Just do whatever you feel like. If you don't have anything to do, go help Chen in the kitchen." Xia said with a wave of his hand.

Assistant Chuan nodded and had turned around when Xia called out, "And Chuan?"

"Yes President?" Assistant Chuan immediately turned around.

"Please make sure Chen doesn't eat any ice-cream or such. She can be a real handful." Xia said.

Assistant Chuan nodded while hiding a smile and walked down the stairs. It seemed like someone was bossing his boss around. Chuan would never have believed such a thing possible.

Xing Chuan religiously completed his mission of keeping an eye on Yu Chen while he continued to help her, but she didn't try to eat any ice-cream or any cold such thing. She was just too happy to be cooking for Xia and the others.

Chen took out something from the oven and looked at the watch.

"Perfect! Chuan, could you go and call Xia down for lunch? Ask him to bring Mi Chang too. Oreo!!!!" Chen spoke, setting the table and taking off her apron.

Xing Chuan had already gotten quite hungry and he got even more hungry as he smelt all the food Chen had made. He rushed up the stairs and burst in Xia's room.

Si Xia looked up from his laptop and sighed, "Do remember to knock Chuan."

Xing Chuan immediately felt embarrassed. He had completely forgotten his place due to Chen treating him like family. He turned around to walk out the room but Xia called out, "No need to go out. Come back in."

Chuan turned around again and spoke, "Umm, Miss Chen sent me to get you. Lunch is ready."

Si Xia immediately stood up, forgetting the laptop in his knee, and catching it at the last second. "Lunch is ready?!" he exclaimed like a little child.
