Chapter 21 An Advantage
"Miss Zhang?" Bolin said as soon as she answered the call to confirm her identity.
"Hello, I\'m Zhang Liling,"
Bolin seemed more relaxed after confirming her identity. "I am Mr. Bolin, I got your contact information from ***** agency. I have a housekeeping job for you, but I must meet you for a little interaction before settling my mind on you"
Zhang Liling was so excited when she heard him introduce himself. She was very much aware of his relationship with Mr. Fang and knew he was the one overseeing his home employers.
She knew it was only a matter of time before he calls her, and this was going to be her last opportunity to get his attention and convince him to employ her.
"There is no problem, Mr. Bolin, we can meet at any time."
Bolin checked his wristwatch before saying to her, "Let\'s meet in 2 hours at the agency you work for."
"Thank you for reaching out to me, I will be there in 2 hours." Zhang Liling replied while beaming with smiles.
Once their conversation came to an end, Zhang Liling jumped for joy and danced around her empty living room. Everything was moving smoothly for her although it cost her money, energy, and time.
None of that mattered much, giver her goal to move into Mr. Fang\'s villa to be under his protection, and get closer to him.
She really was different from other women who admired Mr. Fang but dared not take this bold risky step was taking. Only she could pull this stunt without caring about the consequences.
\'Tungmei, it looks like we will have to meet much later,\' She thought to herself.
Right now, she was going to get some things for her new place and once it was time for her appointment, she would have to leave on time, and only go to meet her after it.
With that thought, Zhang Liling picked up her purse and dashed out of her apartment,
***************
Mr. Fang would be leaving for his hometown in the next 2 hours, which made Bolin his personal assistant busier than he was.
Bolin had to oversee his properties being moved into his new Villa and placed at the appropriate places while taking care of the 2 major employees he needed to run his house.
He also had to keep his eyes on the company while responding to calls and other important matters.
By the time 2 hours were up, Mr. Fang was ready to leave hence, Bolin came back to the company with the small luggage that belonged to him.
When Mr. Fang saw the luggage being taken out from Bolin\'s car booth, a deep frown appeared on his face, causing his brows to be furrowed.
"What did you pack in there?"
He was only going to spend a night there, and once it was morning he would have breakfast with the family and go straight to the company, hence he didn\'t need big luggage to travel with.
Bolin glanced at the luggage before shifting his gaze to him. "A pair of night robes, one pair of comfy clothes, and a work suit, plus your toiletries."
Mr. Fang shut his eyes and opened them again. "Get a smaller bag and transfer everything to it. Even if we have to make a top at the departmental store, do it."
He was avoiding a situation whereby his grandmother would think he was going to stay for a long while when she saw him with medium-sized luggage, so he needed something smaller to show his seriousness without being questioned.
Bolin understood and opened the back passenger door of his car for him, before going ahead to transfer the luggage to his car.
On their way out, Bolin did stop at the departmental store to get small new luggage for him, and in the underground parking lot, he transferred his things to it, before taking out the medium-sized luggage and putting it in his own car\'s booth, and bid farewell to Mr. Fang.
From there, he went to meet Zhang Liling who was already waiting at her agency\'s office.
Punctuality was a good key, and Zhang Liling understood the assignment. She arrived 15 minutes before time to score a good point.
After making some purchases for household furniture, she went to the beauty parlor to touch up her makeup and arrange her hair, making her look fresh just like in the morning.
Meeting Mr. Fang\'s personal assistant was a good call for her, at least, she didn\'t have to meet directly with Mr. Fang and have her cover blown at a go.
She has never had a one-on-one encounter with Bolin, therefore, there was no way he would recognize her even with her makeup on and some adjustments she made to her looks.
When Bolin arrived, the manager introduced them. There was something Zhang Liling noticed when Bolin stepped in, and that was his exhaustion, and she used that to his advantage.
After running around for different reasons throughout the day, he was bound to be tired and needed to get some rest.
Truly, Bolin was tired, and he didn\'t recognize Zhang Liling when they sat face-to-face.
Not wanting to waste time, he proceeded with the short interview. He first asked for her personal information before talking about her work experiences and the places she has been to, before asking if she knew who she was going to work for.
Zhang Liling gave him the perfect responses while trying to keep her responses sharp but engaging.
"You are almost of the same age as my boss, which is almost a big disadvantage to you getting this job," Bolin said in a worried tone while glancing keenly at her personal information on his system.
For the first time since the interview started, Zhang Lilin\'g\'s smile, seemed more profound. "Are you scared that I will fall for him and try to seduce him?"
Bolin cleared his throat and adjusted his necktie. She was right. He was afraid of employing a younger woman who might end up causing a lot of trouble for him and his boss, even though he was told that age was not a criterion for employment.
