New Life : A Second Chance 488 Xing Han : Nitocris at Work

He has stopped having nightmares and had told Nitocris that he need not come and keep the nightmares away anymore.

He thought he saw a flicker of disappointment in his eyes, but he thought it must have been his imagination. It wasn't disappointment. It was relief, right?

After all, Xing Han knew very well how troublesome he was as a bed partner. Kyle was always complaining about him being black and blue the next day with him flinging his arms and legs about.

He was feeling pretty proud of himself right now.

Another aspect of Nitocris that he found amazing was when he followed Nitocris to work one day.

The building was so impressive! Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

The security was phenomenal!

His secretary was so hot!

Oh, yeah, and capable, too.

But what he found to be the most amazing thing was the twins.

They were like two peas in a pod, the same yet different.

When he met them for the first time, he had been flabbergasted.

"Oh.Emm.Gee," Xing Han said, his eyes sparkling when those two came in to report, "Carbon copies!"

Yuri gave a languid smile while Zack just raised an eyebrow. Both didn't say anything and simply gave Nitocris their report.

Xing Han was sitting at a desk that was placed in Nitocris's office. He was using this month or two to observe Nitocris at his workplace.

It was nothing really different (from what he could see) than what his father did, until they came in.

His father would have his personal assistant handle all the minute details and simply inform him if there is a meeting for the day. 

Nitocris had these two detail to him the entire day's schedule, including what to expect during the meetings and the biodata of the 'problematic' ones.

Once they were done, Nitocris said a few words then nodded, waving them away.

However, instead of leaving, they congregated at Xing Han's desk instead. All manner of professionalism and seriousness  gone.

"Boss, who is this?" Zack asked, smiling with his head tilted as he studied Xing Han sitting there.

Xing Han stood up immediately, his eyes not having lost its sparkle as he took Zack's hand enthusiastically, pumping it up and down and said, "Xing Han at your service! I am just here to observe Nitocris at work and learn a few things! And you're Zack, right?"

Zack blinked.

"How'd you know?" he asked slowly, accepting the rapid movements of his arm.

He was beginning to like this energetic boy, who looked at the both of them with pure fascination.

"Nitocris told me about his two personal assistants," Xing Han explained as he took Yuri's hand and started his aggressive handshake as well.

"That doesn't answer the question," Yuri pointed out.

"It doesn't?" Xing Han asked back, puzzled. 

Yuri and Zack looked at each other, seeing mirror images of themselves and then back at Xing Han who was, truly looking bewildered.

Zack cleared his throat, then pointed at Yuri's face, then his face, "Not many people can tell us apart. How did you know?"

"Ah!" Xing Han exclaimed, "You mean that. Like I said, Nitocris told me about you. When I asked him why he had two, instead of normal people having one .."

At that sentence, Yuri's eyes went wider a bit while Zack pressed his lips together to stop himself from laughing.

Someone dared call Nitocris abnormal?

And was still alive?

To be more accurate, did not seem to be afraid of Nitocris in any sense whatsoever?

"... and he said because their strengths complemented each other. One was meticulous and detailed while the other was observant and intuitive. From your reports, it was obvious who was who."

Understanding dawned on them.

So he figured it out from listening to their reports to Nitocris.

"Don't you have work to do?" growled Nitocris from his desk.

Yuri and Zack looked at each other, then at Nitocris that was staring at them darkly. Their gaze landed on Xing Han that was still looking at them with stars in their eyes.

Yuri raised one eyebrow, and Zack reciprocated with raising his own.

They smiled at each other.

Zack leaned closer to Xing Han, whispering close to his ear, "Since you're Nitocirs's understudy, we shall take you out for lunch later. Show you the ropes."

"Really?!" Xing Han exclaimed, "That'll be great. Thank you very much!"

Xing Han gave a slight bow and Zack ruffled his hair, "Anything for .."

"Zacharias Dante," came a very low voice, "I believe there's an issue at the factory in City Ng. Go check it out and don't come back until it's resolved."

Zack's hand stilled on Xing Han's hair.

He gulped.

City Ng was the most unlawful city in State P, located at the most northern part of County Tz. In other words, it was far away, in an obscure mountainous place.

To reach City Ng, he would have to walk several miles or, if he was lucky, ride a donkey to reach the top.

"B-boss…" Zack said, turning around to face Nitocris, his hands clasped together, asking for forgiveness, "Our men there are monitoring the situation very well. It's not in any trouble at all."

"Good," Nitocris said with a smile, "Then you can go and check it out to verify that and come back." 

Yuri patted Zack's shoulder, swinging an arm around it as he brought him out. He said under his breath, "Give up. You crossed the line."

Zack looked at Yuri and sighed, "But he looked so cute! I couldn't help it."

As they walked out the door, Zack couldn't help but take another look back and then said to Yuri, "It's up to you to take care of the situation now and of Xing Han. He's too pure."

"Affirmative," Yuri replied, "Looks like we have more work now."
