Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

The next morning...

The figure laying on the soft white sheets rolled to the side as the hand that was supporting her head slowly moved away to lay next to her.

Suddenly, her shoulders tensed as her eyes immediately flew open.

'What's the time?' she raised a question to herself after jolting awake.

Sitting up properly with her messy head, her mind wandered back to the events of the previous day.

Black circles surrounded her puffy eyes as her fingers went around her slightly swollen pale cheeks.

"Right, I have a flight!" She recalled and quickly got off the bed.

Picking up her phone from the nightstand, she checked the time to see it was still around 5 am. To her, she was already late as she had other things she wanted to do.

Putting down her phone, she slipped her feet into a pair of flip-flop lying beside her bed before hurrying into the bathroom.

Last night, Zhang Liling had not slept a wink. Every time she tried to force herself to sleep, her mind would go back to the moment her mother broke the news of her health condition to her.

Also, she would remember the sound of her sad voice, and how she cried.

While laying awake in the middle of the night, the crying voice if her mother kept resounding in her head as thoughts of what would happen in their lives in the future followed.

There were a lot of questions she wanted to ask, and there were also a lot of things she wanted to know. Sadly, she could only wait till she got to Paris.

After having her bath, Zhang Liling stepped out of the bathroom with a brown bathrobe wrapped around her body.

In barefeet, she made her way to her closet to pick out the only clothe that was left hanging in her wardrobe.

It was a striped navy blue and white jumpsuit.

In a few minutes, she was all dressed up before and walked to the mirror to brush her long hair after which she picked up her phone and left the room.

In quiet steps, she made her way all the way to Mr. Fang's bedroom while trying to avoid the hosuekeeper and the butler.

As she climbed the stairs, she could hear the distance sound from the vaccum cleaner coming from the living room.

Without needing to stress her brain on who was handling the machine, she marched forward.

Soon, she appeared in front of the door to Mr. Fang's bedroom. She was a little breathless and stopped to rest for a second before raising her fist to knock on the door.

"Come in." The loud clear male voice approved from inside.

Zhang Liling was a little taken aback that he was in by that time.

She had thought that she had to go to the gym room to look for him since he always trained early in the morning, but to her surprise, he was still in his bedroom.

Checking the time on her phone, she saw that it was around 5:30.

'Is she just waking up?' she thought as her brows furrowed.

Shaking off the thoughts crowing her head, she went on to bed the door handle before pushing it open and going inside.

Closing the door behind while her eyes landed on the figure standing beside the bed in his sports attire, she concluded that he had just finished working out.

On a normal, she would have thought that he was about to leave for his workout section, but seeing the small beads of sweat that formed on his forehead, and the way his chest rose and fell, she came to that conclusion.

"You are all dressed up?" Mr. Fang asked as he eyed her outfit.

He was checking to see if it was suitable for a long hour flight.

From City S to Paris was 14 hours nonstop flight, and if she wanted tmthe rest of her body to be a bit comfortable apart from her mind that maybe restless due to worry, it would be best if she out on something comfy.

"Mmmm..." Zhang Liling hummed and nodded in response.

She could feel his gaze on him and had to look down at her clothe to see if there was a stain on it.

While checking herself out, she had his calm voice ask from the spot he was standing, "how do you undo that clothe?"

"Huh?..." She exclaimed in shock as her gaze quickly lifted to stare at his face.

Pressing his lips together, his brows furrowed. He knew she had misunderstood him, and he couldn't help but to think, 'Does she have the time for her mind to be flying to that direction?'

Not wanting to waste their time, his thin lips parted unhurriedly. "Your flight is a long and straight on. There won't be a chance for your to visit the restroom in-between. It will be best if you wore soemthing that can be easily undone in case of a bathroom break."

Fang Bingwen just couldn't see her taking off the entire clothe just to use the bathroom. The more he thought about it, the more his brows knitted tightly in a frown.

The jumpsuite Zhang Liling was putting on, was cut in a triangle at the chest area, and because of the white singlet she was putting on inside before it, it helped to cover her chest.

Around her waist, the rope of the jumpsuite was fastened and knotted in a bow.

In this side he had seen, he could only guess that she would have to pull the dress off starting from her shoulders and down to below her butts if she wanted to use the bathroom.

He didn't see that as comfortable.

Finally, it seemed that Zhang Liling understood what he was talking about and hurriedly explained, "Oh!... This dress has a zip."

As she said that, she turned her back towards him and moved her hair to the side so he could see where the zip of the dress began.

"I see..." He replied as he squinted his eyes.

"Wait for me, I'm going to have my bath now."

Zhang Liling quickly turned around, "You don't have to rush, I am not in a hurry. I only came here by this time so I could at least spend an hour with you before leaving for the airport."
