Chapter 13: Elegant Hobbies
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
More than a month after the coat incident, Yu Huan gradually adapted to Meng Han's style of doing things and slowly began to work with ease.
After having more contact with Meng Han, Yu Huan discovered that Meng Han was really no different from the rumors outside.
Rigorous, indifferent, and serious.
Anyway, after following him for a month, she had never seen him smile except for the polite smile when socializing with others.
The aura around him was like a broad glacier, isolating him from the rest of the people and lifting him up high, making it impossible for people to get close to him and they could only look up at him.
He is very strict and will not allow you to make the same mistake twice. But he is not harsh. He will point out the problem and tell you how to solve it.
All you need to do is remember his words and engrave them in your mind.
All in all, although being Meng Han's secretary is tiring, it is very fulfilling and I can learn a lot.
The main thing was that before, if Yu Huan wanted to go out on Saturdays and Sundays, he had to get his parents' approval first. Who was he going to meet? Where was he going to meet? What was he going to do? When was he going to be back? He had to explain all these things clearly.
And you can only go out if you get permission.
Even if she was allowed to go out, he would keep calling to ask about her whereabouts.
At the beginning, Yu Huan had many good classmates and friends, but after graduation, Yu Huan no longer had the reason to go to school to engage in normal social activities, and gradually, he lost contact with those friends.
She also became less and less willing to go out. Firstly, there was no one to play with, and secondly, going out was too much trouble and would only lead to a lot of nagging.
But now it's different. Whenever she wants to go out, as long as she uses work as an excuse, even if her parents are dissatisfied, they will let her go out for the sake of triple her salary.
Although Meng Han never called her on Saturdays and Sundays.
Early this morning, she got herself ready and left home, then went to a pet cafe and spent the whole day there.
She likes cats and dogs very much, but her family never allows her to keep them. Every time she does so, she can only look at them online and envy other people's animals.
Now that her wish has been fulfilled, she holds a cat in one hand and strokes a dog in the other, feeling that there will never be a happier day in her life than today.
As she stroked the puppy, her fingers felt something on its neck.
Curious, she put the cat down and lifted the puppy's fur to reveal the collar underneath.
This pink collar has a bow element on it, which is very beautiful, but it is tied a little too tightly and is hidden under the hair and cannot be seen.
She loosened the collar, letting it poke through the fur, and rubbed the puppy's head.
"What a beautiful little puppy."
After staying in the cafe until dinner, she was about to leave. As soon as she walked out of the cafe, she received a call from He Xiaowei.
"I'm with your sister Xiao Man in the suburbs and can't make it back. Go to Mr. Meng's house to find a document, take a photo and send it to Mr. Meng. Hurry up."
"OK."
Yu Huan had no complaints about the sudden job and even enjoyed it.
Sometimes she felt that she was simply a chosen worker. Others were just thinking about getting off work, but she wanted to work overtime every day, and it would be best if she could live in the company.
Because of He Xiaowei's words "Hurry up", Yu Huan rushed to Meng Han's house as fast as possible, found the document, took a photo and sent it to Meng Han.
After receiving Meng Han's affirmative reply, she restored the place she had just turned over to its original state, exited the study and prepared to leave.
As soon as I came out of the study, I saw a middle-aged woman standing stealthily in front of the door of the forbidden area, reaching out and pushing the door open.
There is only one housekeeper in Meng Han's house. She comes every other day. Yu Huan has seen her.
But she had never seen the person in front of her before.
"Who are you?"
The middle-aged woman suddenly withdrew her hand and turned to look at Yu Huan, her face full of discomfort.
"Aunt Liu can't come today because of something, so I'm here to fill in. Um, I've finished cleaning everywhere else, does this room need cleaning?"
Yu Huan frowned and walked towards her, "Didn't Aunt Liu tell you that you can't enter this room?"
"No... can't come in? Haha, maybe I forgot. There are so many houses to clean every day, it's inevitable that I sometimes get confused. Then I'll leave first."
After saying that, the middle-aged woman walked around Yu Huan and wanted to go downstairs.
"Sorry, you can't leave for the time being." Yu Huan stopped her.
"To ensure that nothing is lost here, I need to contact the owner first. Please cooperate."
She couldn't just let him go like that. If something was really lost, it would be troublesome if she had to bear the consequences.
The middle-aged woman was anxious, "I didn't steal anything, I didn't even go in, look, see for yourself!"
She searched her body all over and even took out several of her trouser pockets to show Yu Huan.
It is the middle of summer now and everyone is wearing thin clothes. It seems that she cannot hide anything on her body.
Then I thought about how she was lingering at the door just now, as if she hadn't had time to go in yet.
"Wait a moment." Yu Huan reminded her and walked to the forbidden area.
The scene inside the house that was pushed open by the middle-aged woman appeared in front of Yu Huan. There was no light on inside, but Yu Huan got a general idea of it with the help of the light coming in from outside.
It was different from the treasure house she had imagined. It was filled with calligraphy and various papers, inks, pens and inkstones.
It seems that Meng Han likes to collect calligraphy.
Yu Huan didn't understand calligraphy, but for someone of Meng Han's status, the calligraphy he collected must be masterpieces by famous calligraphers. The paper, ink, brush, and inkstone in it were probably not ordinary items either. Maybe even a piece of paper was an antique.
She quickly looked away and closed the door.
After closing the door, she said to the middle-aged woman, "Come down with me."
The middle-aged woman was probably afraid that she would complain, so she kept explaining to her.
Yu Huan didn't listen to her explanation. She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Meng Han, reporting what she had seen.
It took two or three minutes for the other side to reply.
Meng Han: "You went in?"
Yu Huan was worried that if something went wrong, he would find out about her, so he immediately replied, "I didn't go in!"
After posting, he added: "I don't know whether the housekeeping lady went in, but I looked at her and she didn't take anything away."
Soon the other side replied: "I understand, let her go."
After getting the owner's consent, Yu Huan left the villa with the housekeeper.
On the way back, Yu Huan's mind was full of the words she had just seen. Although she didn't understand them, she could tell that the fonts were very different.
Some are regular, some are sloppy, and some are like scribbles.
Out of curiosity, she took out her mobile phone and started searching for works of some famous calligraphers.
After looking for a long time, I found that I couldn’t understand anything. I could only put away my phone and sigh that I was a vulgar person.
She is truly worthy of being her boss, who is like a flower on the mountain top. Even her hobbies are so elegant.
