Becoming the First Young Madam

Almost Too Late

Sunlight shone on the city, its light passing through between the windows and illuminating a pair of sea blue eyes. Ming Xia fell asleep last night, even though last night was just as fast, but tonight Ming Xia felt like he had forgotten everything.

Even a call from his assistant Jake was missed, a few times Jake called but never missed, a total of 27 calls.

Jake moved with a huff, this morning Jake found a ticket with a decent schedule in the morning around 08.30, while now it has entered at 07.30.

"She's gone, it's 7 o'clock past. Don't tell me he's still sleeping?" Jake walks back and forth, forward and back while tapping his phone with a black casing.

In some time, Jake did not find any answers, 30 minutes of Jake fiddling at his cellphone wasted. Jake was silent for a moment, daydreaming about the awkwardness last night.

Not felt, Jake's phone vibrated with a contact with the name 'Ming Boss' there. Pressing the green button and the call instantly connects just like that.

"Oh my god, Ming Xia. I called you earlier but you didn't answer any of my calls"

"Sorry, I fell asleep, you know I just woke up"

"You don't know what time it is?"

"What time is it?"

Jake sighed resignedly, his gaze diverted towards the watch on the right side of his wrist, his eyeballs bulging instantaneously "Xia, quickly clean you are almost late, you are almost clean, it's 8 o'clock and your flight's 8 o'clock over 30 minutes"

"Huh, jeez. All right, all right, I get it"

The call immediately interrupted, Jake repeatedly shook his head in resignation. Imagining how his boss was now, if thought only this time his boss missed a call from him, usually Ming Xia always raised even a little late.

"Had his ex asked for a break up on the grounds that he never gave any news, just because of a small problem that led to a big problem" Jake stepped into the direction of his hanging suit, walking out of his house.

2 years ago, Jake heard Ming Xia was decided by his girlfriend just because of a small matter, let alone that time Ming Xia was still not a successful career woman, she said, Jake often hears bad news about Ming Xia.

...****************...

While on the side of Ming Xia himself was preparing to be ready, every action that Ming Xia did was followed by a small swearing. About 15 minutes passed, Ming Xia had finished from his activities.

In a hurry, Ming Xia picked up his sling bag and took his car keys. Down the stairs of his house quickly, no longer caring about the carelessness that often comes on him "Auntie, I want to go back to China. If aunty wants to leave don't forget to lock all the doors of the house huh"

Ming Xia did not live alone, there were several ministries that often helped Ming Xia when not at home. Although the Ming Xia house was not as big and grand as the other wealthy, the Ming Xia house could be categorized as simple but luxurious.

Today Ming Xia delivered her house driver, usually this driver did not deliver Ming Xia but today Ming Xia asked to deliver her.

"Non have an appointment?" the driver in front asked with a frown on his forehead.

"No, there was only a flight that was almost missed" in Ming Xia's heart cursed itself as a result of the delay in waking up on this day.

With a little unsettling, Ming Xia continued on a possibly long journey, although Ming Xia asked his driver to drive a little quickly, the driver did not want to take any big risks.

About 5 minutes more, Ming Xia had reached the airport in a hurry to rush Ming Xia into the airport area and headed to the reception place. Ming Xia slightly ran to avoid missing the plane, as at the reception desk stated to quickly enter the plane as the plane was about to take off.

"Luckily there is still a little time" Ming Xia sighed in relief, Ming Xia walked slightly running towards the passageway towards the plane.

In the middle of Ming Xia's journey to find someone he knew very well, Ming Xia immediately ran towards that person and patted him on the shoulder of "Hei Jake"

Jake turned his head for a moment, the black eyeballs glaring slightly irritated "You know what time it is? why don't you just use a private plane?"

"I don't want to use that plane, if people think I'm rich how? Many want to get close to me, you know this world is full of hypocritical humans" Ming Xia's shoulder moved giving a direction 'I don't know' quickly, she said, logically Ming Xia did not want to use a private plane, many reasons and one reason has been said.

"I don't know the rich man's way of thinking, really" Jake's hand rubbed his face a little rough, imagining how the rich man's conflict was all that.

"You don't know, let alone me? Have I left the company here, I trust you all" Ming Xia's hand gently patted Jake's shoulder, trying to give him an unstoppable spirit. Even so, Ming Xia considers Jake not his subordinate but one of his family.

Jake used to be the kid who ran away from home, you could say Jake's Brokenhome accidentally Jake met Ming Xia when Jake was in need of work. Eventually Ming Xia recruits Jake to become a secretary at the company, and gives him a decent place to stay.

Jake considers Ming Xia his older brother, although no one inbred Jake will remain to protect Ming Xia at any time. Many say that Jake approached Ming Xia because Ming Xia had many treasures, but not with Ming Xia himself.

"Tell me if you want to go back, brother" Jake steadied those light brown eyeballs fondly, dear Jake Ming Xia could not be explained with words but could be explained by his treatment.

"I'll tell you, but I don't promise. You know, after this I already have a complete family it might be hard to come back, but I'll try" Ming Xia knew that Jake could not let go, although Ming Xia often left to other countries, Jake is not as sad as this.

Ming Xia advanced slowly, pulling Jake's body gently and giving a loving hug. Gently rubbing Jake's back and hair alternately "Look back, I'll visit often because this country is half of my soul"

"I know, brother, hurry up. You want to miss the plane?" jake's nod slightly made Ming Xia calm.

"All right, take care of yourself here. Often tell your sister if there is the slightest problem, then don't forget to find a partner" Ming Xia patted gently on Jake's head before running into the aisle of the plane, hitting already showed 08.34.

'Sister should be happy there' Jake smiled looking at Ming Xia's cute demeanor, staring at Ming Xia's back with a poignant smile.
