Now Bolin couldn't doubt that he was blocked, because his Boss answered a call when he went to meet him in his office.
"Dr. Li, do you want me to pass any message to him?" Bolin asked at last.
"Forget about him for now. Since he blocked me, it shows that any suggestion from me would be trashed." Chuanli sulked.
Bolin didn't know what to say to him. If he doesn't have any message to pass anymore, then this conversation shouldn't go on anymore, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything.
Looking at his messy desk, he just hoped that Chuanli would say something soon, or he would be forced to remind him about the work he had left to do.
Thankfully, he didn't have to do that because Chuanli spoke the next second.
"Miss Zhang is writing her last exams today, what does your Boss have to say about it?"
'What has this got to do with Mr. Fang?' Bolin thought to himself with a slight confusion in his gaze.
He really didn't know what Dr. Li was getting at.
"Should Mr. Fang have something to do with it? If you are thinking he would fire her, that wouldn't happen, at least not now."
Chuanli rubbed his face with his free hand before making things clear. "Miss Zhang should be celebrated for concluding her Bachelor's program. Did you Boss not mention anything about it?"
It was now that Bolin got the point, and he proceeded to immediately correct a mistaken impression that he had.
"Dr. Li, Miss Zhang is Mr. Fang's Hoousekeeper, why would he want to celebrate her for finishing her Bachelor's degree program?"
Chuanli was immediately disappointed and felt that Bolin was boring, and becoming more like the person he worked for.
"Forget it! Just get a bouquet for Miss Zhang, and get your Boss to come home on time. I don't care what method you use, but you have to bring him back on time, unless you want to sneak to his house to hand Miss Zhang some flowers before going back to the office."
There was no room for argument in Chuanli's statement, which caused Bolin to frown.
"Do I have to give her flowers today?"
Mr. Fang looked like someone that may be spending extra hours at work today. How in the world was he supposed to make him go home willingly?
"It has to be today. I agree that Miss Zhang is an interesting character, but the poor girl has to be celebrated. That's what everyone's family would do for their child on this day." Chuanli said with a slight pity in his tone.
He was trying really hard to convince him to agree with his plot.
Bolin felt he was right, but then had to ask, "Miss Zhang is yet to have her graduation ceremony, why don't we wait till then? Mr. Fang might be really furious if he is provoked today."
As much as he agreed to this, he had to be rational.
"Don't worry, I will try to handle his temper by bringing up the research. I might have something for him."
Chuanli planned to talk about his health to disguise the fact that he came over to celebrate Zhang Liling on writing her last exams.
"I will try to see what I can do make him go back home on time. But I can't promise that it would work."
Bolin finally agreed to his plot.
Chuanli was not going to settle for uncertainty. "Make sure it works. I'm sure Miss Zhang's class would be having party tonight to celebrate their last exam this evening. If Mr. Fang doesn't come back before she leaves then we can't find a better time than this."
Bolin understood and still left him with the same words.
A few hours later, Bolin's phone rang, but before he could answer the call, it ended. Glancing at the caller ID, he saw that it was Chuanli that had called.
Actually, the call was a reminder that it was time to clock off work, which Bolin understood very well.
Sighing to himself, he said a prayer in his heart before packing up his things.
Just when he opened the door to his office with his workbag in hand, he saw Mr. Fang leaving his office with a slight frown on his face.
Mr. Fang glanced at him and said in an urgent tone, "Drive me home today. And you should stop by my house to check out the lab. I need you to confirm some scents for me."
"Are you going to start working on the new scent today?" Bolin asked in surprise.
Mr. Fang started walking forward while replying, "Yes, the earlier the better. This result can take me a few months to get. I will have to try my hands on everything I can lay hold of."
Bolin rejoiced in his heart and couldn't wait to give this big testimony to Chuanli whou would jump for joy.
If he knew that Mr. Fang would choose to go home early today because of his new agenda, he wouldn't have worried so much.
But in all, he was just thankful that he didn't have to suffer from blodd loss while trying to come up with a reason for him to go home early.
Bolin quickly followed after Mr. Fang who kept glancing at his wristwatch.
'Is he going somewhere else?' Bolin thought.
On their way back to the Villa, Bolin parked in front of a flower shop before taken permission from Mr. Fang.
"Sir, please give me a minute to get something from this store." Bolin turned from his driver's seat to gaze at him.
Mr. Fang glanced at the flower shop and wrinkled his nose instinctively. "What are you getting flowers for? Shouldn't you have done that when you are in your own car?"
There was a hint of blame for not being considerate of his Boss, in his tone.
Bolin managed a smile before explaining. "I will put the flower in the trunk. The flower is actually for Miss Zhang, for finishing her final exams today."
Since he was going to see him give it to her anyway, it would be better to come clean now.
