100% Love From The Boss Chapter 54

Chapter 54 The Matchmaker
“Hello, My darling!” The sweet voice of Xia Xiaoluo made Ling Tianyi, who had called her to blame her, suddenly feel better.
“Darling, was the flight tiring today?” Xia Xiaoluo had nothing to say but still finding something to talk with him, because Ling Tianyi kept silent, which made Xia Xiaoluo have a bad feeling.
“Report what you did in school today!” Ling Tianyi’s solemn voice made Xia Xiaoluo shiver.
Xia Xiaoluo paused a few seconds and said, “After you left, I went to class. I had lunch with my roommate at noon, took the English lesson in the first and second class period, and went to the dance room after class. At 5 p.m., Mum asked the driver to take me home to have dinner. That’s all.”
Xia Xiaoluo briefly reported her day to Ling Tianyi, but he just asked coldly, “Xia Xiaoluo, is there anything else? Didn’t you do anything you shouldn’t do? Admit your mistake now. If it’s brought to light by me, I’ll punish you when I’m back!”
“Hey, please don’t! Let me see!” Xia Xiaoluo immediately stopped Ling Tianyi to talk about her mistake. She paced in the room anxiously, thinking that man might have known that she pretended to have the runs. Now that he knew it, she had better told him the truth; therefore, it might be possible for her to have light punishment.
“What? I drove you to the school, but you dared to skip class! Xia Xiaoluo, what the hell were you thinking?” Ling Tianyi roared on the phone, for that was not the reason he wanted to query, but the silly little girl unexpectedly confessed.
All of a sudden, Xia Xiaoluo realized that that man didn’t know anything, and he just pretended to know, but she bit the hook. That man was far away from here, and he couldn’t know anything about her at all. She thought herself was so silly that she was cheated.
“Go ahead! Xia Xiaoluo, you’ve got a knack now! Dare not to answer me!” Ling Tianyi yelled, for her silence made him even angrier.
Hearing that, Xia Xiaoluo knew that man was annoyed. She hurriedly said, “Darling, it’s my fault. I arrived too late, so I sat in the first row. When that professor talks, his mouth water was sprayed to my face. Darling, you don’t hope that my face will be polluted by that old man’s mouth water, right? Darling, I promise, it won’t happen again. For the sake of my confession, forgive me, won’t you?”
“Go on, anything else?” Ling Tianyi asked in anger, for the thing he wanted the chit to tell him hadn’t been spoken out by her.
“Nope. Except I skipped a class, I didn’t do anything bad.” Xia Xiaoluo didn’t know whether she got entangled with Fang Ruichen was a fault, because that man asked her to keep away from Fang Ruichen and Ouyang Ziqian. Anyway, he couldn’t see what happened a thousand miles away, and this time she would not confess everything without being pressed.
“Nothing else?” Ling Tianyi asked back seriously.
“I swear! There’s nothing else.” Xia Xiaoluo answered at once, with confidence.
“If there is, what punishment should you receive?” Ling Tianyi asked in rage, for the little girl didn’t confess, which made him blow his top.
“Hang myself!” Xia Xiaoluo blurted it out.
“Fine, remember it.” Although he was mad with her, he laughed at her careless words.
“Xia Xiaoluo, today someone told me, you sat with Fang Ruichen in the English class. That jerk even went to watch you dance in the dance room. I’ve told you, keep away from him, why did you forget? Do you think when your husband is on business, you are free to flirt with boys?”
Ling Tianyi questioned her, and he was getting angrier. She didn’t tell the truth meant that there was something. If she confessed it like just now, he wouldn’t have been that angry.
Xia Xiaoluo was totally shocked: how could he knew everything about her. However, she had no choice. It all came down to Fang Ruichen, the jerk who threatened her with those photos, or she would not sit next to him, nor even looked at him.
Who knew what her overbearing husband would do to her when he was in rage! She clenched her teeth and started to lie.
”Darling, you don’t know, I was doing a good deed. My roommate Luo Xixi fell in love with Fang Ruichen at first sight. I don’t know what’s wrong with her. Why does she like him? She keeps thinking about him but doing nothing. As her roommate, I must help her this time, so I become the matchmaker.” Her lie just came out so naturally.
“Really?” Ling Tianyi doubted it, “You are playing gooseberry. Why don’t you let them sit together?”
“No, darling, look! Luo Xixi is a couch potato. She’s always playing computer inside the dorm, so she doesn’t know what to do when she suddenly sits beside the boy she likes. Therefore, I became the intermediary. Sweetheart, I promise, I will stay away from them when they get together.”
Ling Tianyi was in half doubt, and he was so about to get her hooked. He asked deliberately, “Someone told me Fang Ruichen likes you.”
“Impossible. Darling, don’t think that way. We’re totally different persons, quarrelling every time. I won’t like anyone that Luo Xixi likes! I’m not that kind of person. What’s more, Fang Ruichen is a big dumb boy. My husband is way much better than him. My husband is both handsome and rich. You’re the only one!” While talking on the phone, Xia Xiaoluo danced with joy. If he saw her like this, he would find it funny.
He couldn’t deny that he liked her flatter, and he would like to hear that.
“I’ll check it out. Please don’t believe that the cats away, the mice will play.” Ling Tianyi felt better now.
“Believe me, darling. I promise I’ll be a good girl when you are on business.” Xia Xiaoluo said; Ling Tianyi finally gave a rare smile.
After that, he asked many other things about the villa and hung up after a while. Chatting with her, he felt very pleasant.
After he hung up, he quickly called Chu Wei to ask him to investigate Luo Xixi; now that she was her roommate, he must know her background. Nevertheless, he also wanted to find out whether she lied about being a matchmaker.
Although Xia Xiaoluo was a bit silly and often made trouble, she was somewhat smart. She thought maybe he would investigate Luo Xixi’s background, so she found the contacts of her classmates and called her.
“Power off! Damn!” Xia Xiaoluo was depressed.
But she thought since she couldn’t contact with Luo Xixi, it was very likely that Ling Tianyi couldn’t find her, too. Thinking of this, she became relieved.
In the next morning, Xia Xiaoluo ignored He Meishu’s chatter, just drinking a glass of milk and going to school with a piece of bread in her mouth. Jie sent her to Dwichen’s. Xia Xiaoluo didn’t go the classroom first, but running to the dorm to find Luo Xixi.
“Xixi, I thought you wouldn’t attend the Appreciation of Classic Poetry. Why you got up and surfed the Internet so early?” Seeing her playing computer on the bed, Xia Xiaoluo sighed, if it were she, she would definitely take a nap, and otherwise, it would be a waste of the precious rest time.
“I didn’t get up early, but stayed up late!” Luo Xixi said calmly with no expression on her face.
Xia Xiaoluo was astonished. She asked, “Xixi, you stayed up all night long? Won’t you be sleepy during the day?”
“Anyway, there are no other classes except Appreciation of Classic Poetry, which can be skipped. I can sleep whenever I want! Why are you here? Don’t you need to take the seat for your foe in the classroom? It’s none of your business about my schedule!” The words were so abrupt that Xia Xiaoluo felt very embarrassed.
“Xixi, I need your help!” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“Say. But never ask me to go to class.” As a senior netter, if her net time was not interrupted, Luo Xixi wouldn’t mind her fuss.
Xia Xiaoluo told her that she lied to Ling Tianyi, and that she would like to introduce her to Fang Ruichen, but she didn’t tell her Ling Tianyi was her husband. She lied that her uncle didn’t allow her to have a relationship too early, and he doubted she was already having an affair with Fang Ruichen.
“What should I do? I have no time to date that dumb boy. Computer is my lover, and I can’t live without it.” Luo Xixi said.
Seeing she was about to agree, she explained, “You don’t need to date with Fang Ruichen. If you want, just sit with us for one month. Okay?”
“OK. It’s easy. I agree.” Luo Xixi was a tough lady, and she didn’t mind others getting her around. She could still play the computer anyway, so she didn’t care.
“Xia Xiaoluo, are you in secret romance with Fang Ruichen? I saw that guy looked at you in a strange way! I come to help with at the cost of my reputation. You should tell me everything.” Luo Xixi immediately became interested in it.
“No. Absolutely not! I will never ever like that big dumb boy.” Xia Xiaoluo said in confidence.
Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t stop talking, telling her how Fang Ruichen fooled with her and threatened her. Luo Xixi lost her patience and took a look at the time on the screen, “Dear, if you stay here for one more second, I’m afraid there would only be seats in the first row.”
Xia Xiaoluo suddenly realized and said, “I’ve got to go. Thank you.”
Xia Xiaoluo rushed to the classroom where seated lots of students. There was no room in the last row. She picked two seats in the middle, thinking about how to explain to Fang Ruichen later.
