My Boss Is My Ex-lover

Chapter 9 - Help

It was already seven in the evening when they reached Jian's house.

Jian lives in the West Lands Subdivision. [A/N: Just my idea.]

His house's design is like diaphanous pavilions with a central courtyard.

It is a two-story house with four bedrooms. Three upstairs and one downstairs.

Both of them entered the house, Natalie looked around the living room. There are club chairs on the other side of the living room while in the center is a carpet, sofa and a center table.

Though Jian's house isn't as big as the Zhuang family's mansion it's clean and cozy.

"You can occupy that room." Jian pointed the door on the other side of the house.

"Hmmm."Natalie nodded her head.

"You can take a rest now," Jian said and then he turned to go upstairs but Natalie stopped her.

"Wait!"

Jian stopped and turned back to Natalie. "Why?" He asked.

Natalie gulped her saliva before she speaks, " Are... Are we not having... dinner?" She asked.

All right! She admits it! She is shameless!

She's so hungry, she did not eat lunch and she did eat dinner yet.

Natalie unconsciously touched her growling stomach.

Gosh! This is so embarrassing! Natalie's face turned red due to embarrassment!

Jian looked at Natalie's blushing face and he pursed his lips to hide his smile, "Ehem!" He pretended to clear his throat. " just take a seat first and wait for me here I'll cook for you." He said and then he headed to the kitchen.

Natalie sitting on the sofa and waited for Jian.

After about ten minutes, Jian came back with a big bowl in his hands.

'Woah! He already finished to cook that instant?!' Natalie thought.

"Here, help your self." He said as take a seat opposite to Natalie.

Natalie's expression went blank when she saw the food inside the big bowl!

N-noodles?! She gulped.

I've never tried this before! My God! Does he call this food?! Natalie thought.

This is her first time to eat noodles!

"Why are you not eating?" Jian asked when he notices that Natalie did not move.

"Uh?" Natalie snapped back to her senses. She looked at Jian and then to the noodles again.

'C' mon Natalie! Don't be picky! You should be thankful that you still have food to eat!'

Natalie revealed a forced smile to Jian (hehe) and pick up her chopstick and she slowly picks the noodles and she started to eat.

She never knows that noodles tasted good!

Jian silently observed Natalie, there is something strange with this girl, but he can't tell what is it.

Hmmm... the way she moves, the way she picks her food and the way she eats is so elegant!

She's like a well-mannered princess eating in a banquet.

Jian suddenly felt curious about this girl.

------

Natalie is lying on the bed. She can't sleep, maybe because she's in a stranger's house?

'Aright Natalie! You should take advantage of tonight! Because you might not be able to sleep in this kind of bed tomorrow and the next few days!

Natalie sigh!

This is the life that you choose, so you should bear the consequences!

But this life is much better than marrying a man she doesn't love!

-----

The next morning.

Jian had just finished cooking for breakfast when Natalie got out of her room and went to the kitchen.

"Good morning!" Natalie greeted Jian.

"You're awake!" Jian replied. "You're just on time! C'mon! Seat down and let's eat breakfast!" He said.

"Hmmm..." Natalie nodded and settled opposite Jian.

"Uhm, Mr. Jian Hong. I... I want to thank you for letting me stay here for one night." Natalie said.

"Did you sleep well?" Jian asked without looking at Natalie.

Natalie nodded her head a few times and said, "Yes!"

"Good!" Jian replied.

"I will leave after breakfast," Natalie said.

"Hmmm..." Jian nodded his head.

'C' mon man! Please says, It's alright! You can stay here if you want to!' Natalie secretly prayed.

Just like Natalie said, she left Jian's house after breakfast.

Natalie is walking on the road while pulling her luggage.

'Natalie, Natalie, Natalie! You should have begged him to let you stay in his house for a few more days! Natalie scolded her self and sigh.

"Hey! That's mine!" Natalie suddenly heard a shout from a girl. She knitted her brows and lifted her lowered head and looked ahead of her.

Natalie knitted her brows, those two guys are harassing the girl!

They grab the girl's bag and opened it without her permission!

Natalie looked around, the place is not crowded and there are just a few cars that passed occasionally.

She doesn't have a phone so, she can't call the police!

Natalie looked at the frightened girl and the first thing that came to her mind is to help!

She continued walking closer to the girl's direction. And when the two bad guys notice her, they instantly blocked her way!

"Get out of my way!" Natalie glared at the two goons.

The two goons looked at each other and smirked.

"Ha! Here comes another girl! Give us your things!" One of the guys commanded.

The girl's eyes went wide open! She looked at Natalie as if saying, You should have not come!

"C' mon! Give me!" The other guy attempted to hold Natalie!

"Don't you dare to lay your dirty hand on me or you'll regret it!" Natalie warned the guy!

"Hahahaha!!" The guy laughed as if he heard a joke. "Are you threatening me?" The guy asked sarcastically!

"No!" Natalie lifted her chin. "I am warning you!" She added.

The girl looked at Natalie as if telling her to stop.

But Natalie just ignored the girl.

If she let these two bad guys get what they want, they would do it again and again to the other people!

"C' mon little girl! You talked too much! You're just a little girl but you dare to provoke us?!"

One of the guys said arrogantly.

The guy lay his hand on Natalie's shoulder.

"Didn't I said don't lay your dirty hand on me?!" Natalie gave the guy a side glance.

"Hahahaha!! Why? What else could you do? I have already touched your shoulder, what are you---worth!"

The bad guy was not able to finish his words when Natalie suddenly grabbed his wrist!

She grabbed his little finger and ring finger with her one hand, and his middle finger and index finger with the other hand and bent his wrist forward and she hit his groin with her knees!

"Aaahhh!!" The bad guy cried due to the pain that he felt!

He staggered back and hold the s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e part of his body between his legs!

The guy's face turned pale! And he's suffering from pain by Natalie's sudden attack! "Aarrrgghhh!" He keeps on growling!

The other guy was dumbstruck for a moment!

He did not expect that the little girl would attack his companion!

He looked at his companion and he snapped back to his senses when he suddenly yelled, " Attack her!"

"You!" The other guy took a knife from his pocket and aim it to Natalie!

The girl that was harassed by the bad guys earlier was startled! Her face turned pale and her body trembled!
