Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 220: The Other Side of the President (2)

“Could it be that something seriously went wrong in your proposal? It was noticed by the president, so…”

“At first, I had the same thought as well. I was so scared that I didn’t even dare to take a deep breath. Who knew that when I was about to come out, the president said that I did a good job…”

Xia Zhetao was speechless.

Yan Wen recalled the terrible ten minutes that she had just spent. She could not help but tremble on the spot. Then, she extended her hand and patted Xia Zhetao on his shoulder. “Anyway, the president is weird today. Something seems not quite right. Bro, take care of yourself. I’ll leave first.”

Xia Zhetao was speechless when he looked at the department chief fleeing. He secretly cursed her in his mind for being disloyal. After that, he looked at the documents on the table that were about to be taken in to Mu Tingfeng, and he began to worry.

After struggling for a long time, Xia Zhetao finally took a deep breath. He picked the pile of documents up and walked to Mu Tingfeng’s office as if he was going somewhere dangerous.

“President, I’m here to deliver the documents. ” Xia Zhetao tried his best to keep his tone stable and knocked on the door that decided his fate.

“Come in.” Mu Tingfeng’s emotionless voice sounded from inside. He could not guess whether he was happy or not.

Xia Zhetao swallowed his saliva. He opened the door and walked in. He carefully observed Mu Tingfeng’s expression all the way. The more he looked at Mu Tingfeng, the more he thought that the president seemed not right today.

In the past, he was able to tell his emotions from his movements or gaze, but today… He could not see through the president and tell whether he was happy or sad.

The uncertainty about the future made Xia Zhetao more cautious. He walked to Mu Tingfeng and handed over the documents. Then, he obediently stood at the side and did not dare to make any trouble at all.

After Mu Tingfeng received Xia Zhetao’s documents, he did not even rush to look at it. Instead, he raised his head and looked at Xia Zhetao. Then, he said softly, “Secretary Xia…”

Xia Zhetao’s heart skipped a beat when Mu Tingfeng suddenly called him. He felt that his vision turned black, and a familiar ominous premonition appeared in his mind. He suddenly felt sad.

‘Today… Will my salary be deducted again today?’

“P-President, what’s the matter?”

Mu Tingfeng looked at Xia Zhetao meaningfully for a long time. His gaze made Xia Zhetao subconsciously swallow his saliva. Then, he said, “Don’t you think that I’m a little different today?”

‘Different! You’re very different from usual. Although your face is still very cold, it is much more terrifying than usual. It’s very scary.’

Xia Zhetao was so frightened by Mu Tingfeng that his legs trembled, but he did not dare to show anything unusual on his face. He smiled and said, “President, are you in a bad mood recently?”

‘Is it possible that the president is still depressed and unhappy because his previous confession was disliked by the former Mrs. President?’

“No, I’m in a good mood recently.” Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flickered. There was still no expression on his face, but the coldness around him had dropped by several percentages. “Secretary Xia, can’t you see that I’m smiling?”

Huh? Xia Zhetao was stunned. After he came back to his senses, he felt that he was struck by lightning as he was unprepared.

‘What did the president just say? He is smiling? Who can tell me that the person in front me, whose corners of the mouth don’t curl up at all, is smiling? President, you’re just kidding me.

‘No, this is not the main point. The main point is that the extremely cold person in front of me, who was once diagnosed with a lifelong paralysis of facial expressions, will actually smile? Have the pigs started flying?’

“President, you just said…” Xia Zhetao asked with confusion while showing a stiff smile.

“I said that I’m smiling. I’m smiling right now,” Mu Tingfeng repeated what he said just now with a serious face.

Xia Zhetao was speechless.

‘B-But President, I really can’t tell that you’re smiling. When you’re not smiling, you only seem a little scary. But when you smile, you’re simply terrifying. President, please don’t stop the treatment.’

The corners of Xia Zhetao’s mouth twitched for a long time before he was able to resist the urge to complain. He said, “P-President, a smile is not like this.” ‘Such a smile is more terrifying than you being angry.’

Mu Tingfeng was taken aback. His deep eyes darkened, and he returned to his usual serious expression. Then, he said dumbly, “H-How does a smile look like?”

When Xia Zhetao heard Mu Tingfeng’s words, he was really sad and moved to the point of crying. He was sad because his president did not even know what a smile was like at this age. How bitter was his life? He was moved because he thought that his president had been paralyzed for so many years but he still had the thought of rehabilitation. It seemed a bit unreasonable if he did not help.

Thinking about this, Xia Zhetao quickly said with a serious face, “Well, try to lift the corners of your mouth first. When you purse your lips, other people can’t tell that you’re smiling at all. Look at me. You have to slightly lift the corner of your lips like me.”

As Xia Zhetao spoke, his hands pointed at the corners of his mouth and made a small demonstration.

Mu Tingfeng looked at Xia Zhetao for a long time. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was obviously doing what Xia Zhetao said. He was studying humbly.

Unfortunately, the effect of this study did not seem to be very good.

Mu Tingfeng worked hard for a long time, but he still failed to raise the corners of his mouth like Xia Zhetao. He frowned and completely lost his patience. He directly extended out his index fingers and poked his cheeks on both sides of his mouth.

The cruel appearance made people unable to look at him directly. Xia Zhetao was about to stop him, but he saw Mu Tingfeng put strength on his fingers and directly pushed the corners of his mouth up. He revealed a row of white teeth.

“Like this?”

Xia Zhetao was speechless. ‘I-It’s very scary.’

Xia Zhetao almost cried because he was scared. The corners of the mouth that had been raised involuntarily were twisted into a slightly strange arc after being pushed upward. The snow-white teeth matched Mu Tingfeng’s cold eyes.

At that moment, Xia Zhetao finally understood why the department chief was so frightened just now. This was too scary. This was no different from seeing a real-life horror movie in broad daylight.

Although it was terrifying, Xia Zhetao was not planning to attack the enthusiasm of Mu Tingfeng’s desire to regain his facial expressions, so he had to say against his instincts, “Yes. Yes… That’s it. For you, it may be a bit difficult at the beginning, but as long as you practice a lot, you’ll be able to do it easily like me in the future.”

Mu Tingfeng’s eyes brightened when he heard what Xia Zhetao said. He nodded and continued to work hard to push the corners of his mouth.

Xia Zhetao watched Mu Tingfeng push the corners of his mouth in front of him, showing all kinds of terrifying expressions. The corners of his eyes slightly twitched and he thought to himself. ‘Do I need to face such a terrifying president in the future?’
