Dong Xian has not completed the re-formulation of plans after a few days of consideration. The acquisition plans were thus put on hold.
"Alex will come once you give the indication to proceed", Leo reported.
"What caused him to be so serious?", he is in neither the condition nor mindset to direct the acquisition project now.
"Maybe he is trying to exhibit his loyalty to you via actions?", Leo commented.
"There must be a reason" could that be so simple? The hunter thinks, speculates Dong Xian is searching for the reason.
Leo joked "He may a gay!" maybe Alex is interested in Frank? The handsome Frank?
A weak smile appeared on Dong Xians face "Thats enough, Leo!" he lighted a cigarette and ordered another martini.
"Whats wrong with you tonight? Why are you drinking so much?" will this be Dong Xians sixth, seventh or eighth glass of martini tonight?
"I feel confused both in my mind and heart" rationally, he knew its a hunters job to hunt. However, he cant pull Zhen Yin out of his mind.
"Xu Zhen Yin?" Leo faced Dong Xian "The game has ended, hasnt it?"
"The problem is she is also in love with me" he never knew her love for him will hurt her. He is sadden by this fact.
"Goodness! We are going into overtime now?", Leo shook his head.
How are her colleagues treating her now? Dong Xian wondered "She should be feeling bad now" Dong Xian looked straight, blankly into space.
"Does she agree to see you after she know your motive?", Leo asked.
"No, she said she cant return to my side", each and every word pained him.
"Then this should not be considered as overtime. Its times up!", Leo found an appropriate analogy.
"The problem is can I forget her?", he has missed her, badly.
"Boss, love is like wine. The higher the alcohol content, the worse the headache will be. However, no matter how concentrated the liquor is its only a matter of time itll be cleared from the system", Leo consoled.
Dong Xian understood "But " he almost mocked at himself "She could be the only woman I love for the rest of my existence"
Leo questioned, "Is it that serious?"
Dong Xian admitted "Yes" he is certain "I could be in love with her for the rest of my life"
"In this case, you should hold on to her", Dong Xians devotion for Zhen Yin is evident. Afterall, Dong Xian has not fallen for any lady over the decade other than Zhen Yin. Leo has never seen the emotional side of Dong Xian till now, "We cant live for a hundred years. Thus, we cant lose the chance of a lifetime. But the problem is how to hold on to her?"
"Deal!" Dong Xian made up his mind "I must win her back to my side"
Leo smiled, "Boss is finally exhibiting your professional skill. Your expertise has always been Last Deal! Between the hotel and woman, which is your choice?"
