What's Wrong With My Boss

What's Wrong With My Boss
Difficult



POV; Reba


I opened the door slowly afraid to wake the house, now that it was eleven o'clock in the night my mother must have fallen asleep. The lights in the living room had been extinguished, I took off my shoes and groped the shelves to look for my sandals.


Click!


The lights suddenly lit up, so bright I could immediately see the figure of my mother pressing the button.


"You're home tonight again" said Mother.


"Yes, I should just sleep, no need to wait for Reba." I walked over to Mom and kissed her hand.


I wanted to explain why it was too late to go home, but I saw my mother's attention immediately distracted by the Audi Silver parked in front of the house.


"Reba, whose car is that? Why take it home?" ask Mother.


"The boss, Mom, Reba was asked to pick him up, that's why Reba came home late" I replied.


I reached into the black sling bag I carried and handed over two hundred thousand pieces of money to my mother.


"Mom hold this first, later if you have received salary Reba will love more."


My mother looked down, accepted the money sincerely. For a few months we have been in trouble. I also know you owe money here and there to meet your daily needs. If it wasn't for Haoxuan this wouldn't have happened.


"Where's that bad boy, Mom? She hasn't come home yet?" ask me when I see no signs of the presence of the rogue.


She did not answer, but seemed to be covering up something. This even made me suspicious, something was wrong with my mother's facial expression, lest Haoxuan ever do anything again.


"Mom? say, Reba promised not to scold her," I said trying to persuade Mom.


Mother then began to cry and said, "Haoxuan was dragged out of the house by someone I don't know."


I was shocked and asked, "Who? What's the guy like?"


"A tall, white man, with narrow eyes, and two bald men," replied Mother.


"Ahzheng!"


How'this? Should I call the police? No, I still don't know what the problem is, if it's any more accounts payable, Haoxuan will definitely keep his mouth shut like before.


I tried to think calmly, find a way to contact Haoxuan. I started fiddling with Smartphones, dozens of calls were not picked up, I also tried to send a lot of chat messages, but still not reciprocated.


"Basic fool!" I started to lose my patience.


While in a panic, suddenly the name of Mr. YangYang appeared in my head, he must know how to contact Ahceng, so Haoxuan's whereabouts must also be met.


I looked up Mr. YangYang's name on the phone list and contacted him immediately.


It's too late, it's possible that the contact has fallen asleep, I almost gave up, when it will disconnect the call suddenly connected.


"Hello, what's the matter Reba?" ask Mr. YangYang


I heard Mr. YangYang's hoarse voice over there.


"Yes, sir, I'm sorry I called so late at night" I replied stiffly.


"Ahlh? What business are you with that guy? Do you have a problem with him?" Mr. YangYang asked back.


"I'm sorry, sir, it's urgent, I'll tell you later, I need the number now" I replied.


"It can't be like that, Ahceng is not a good person, he is quite dangerous, tell me your problem, maybe I can help," said Mr. YangYang. Actually I don't want to bother him at all, but there is no one else to ask for help.


...***...


I waited anxiously, hoping that these little hours would pass soon, and the morning would come soon. Maybe I should just call the police, waiting like this is really very torturous.


No matter what time my mother and I fell asleep leaning on the sofa in the living room, at seven in the morning I got a phone call from the boss.


"Yes, Hello" I replied, touching my stiff neck and sitting upright.


"How's this? I wanted to go to work, but I just remembered that I had a temporary driver" asked the man across the phone call.


I soon realized the task to be done. "I'm sorry, sir, I'll be there right away" I replied, then headed for the bathroom.


After finishing the bath and so on, I dressed neatly and then immediately will leave for Mr. Zhan's house to pick him up. I saw that my mother had also woken up and started to clean up the house as usual. I approached my mother and said, "Mom don't have to worry, Haoxuan will be fine, after dropping off Reba's boss will ask for a work permit and return home immediately."


My mother lowered her head and said, "Where did the boy go, I hope he's okay."


I am so sad to see mom like this, just be aware later if Haoxuan comes home, I will definitely scold her all out


...***...


I went inside the elite housing complex to pick up Mr. Zhan. Once inside the garage of his luxurious house I could immediately see the figure of a man who looked neat wearing a long-sleeved white shirt with a plain tie maroon color, maroon color, he hung his suit on his right arm while continuing to watch his watch. Maybe I'll get mad for making him late today. 


I didn't have time to get out of the car, Mr. Zhan had already rushed in and sat in the back seat. Then I immediately turned on the car engine and turned the steering wheel, when the vehicle had started to go, we were just silent, even half the way to the office there were still no words out, it might seem impolite, but I dare not say hello first.


I don't think I know anything about my boss. I only heard rumors about him from rumors circulating in the office, all I know is he's a widower son who just left his wife. I can't ask you anything, not even for pleasantries.


"Next time you have to pick me up before I call first." Mr. Zhan's comments finally broke the silence between us.


"Okay, sir," I replied.


No matter what the problem is, I should still be professional at work.


"I'm sorry, sir, I want permission, today after dropping off my Father I want to ask for a day's leave of absence" I said as we were about to arrive at the office.


"Do you have any urgent business?" ask Mr. Zhan.


"Yes, sir, please understand" I replied.


As soon as we arrived at the office parking lot, we went out almost simultaneously, I stood facing Mr. Zhan wanting to hand over his car keys.


"Bring it up" said Mr. Zhan while wearing a suit and buttoning the end of his sleeve. "You should pick me up if I call you later."


"But, Sir...." I haven't finished talking Mr. Zhan directly raised his hand. I can't speak anymore.


"Just get your business done first" he said later.


I nodded slowly and unintentionally saw the tie Mr. Zhan was wearing was slightly slanted. I took one step closer and raised my hand to grab it, as our height was almost the same I could easily fix the sloping tie. After neatly I went back and smiled at him, strangely Mr. Zhan just kept quiet without any response. I then got back in the car and turned the wheel, I have to go back home, hopefully there's been news from Haoxuan.
