Chapter 2016: my boss and I are really not what you think

Translator: 549690339

When Mei Ning said this, Hans was even more stunned!

“So it’s a hero saving the damsel in distress! This is a little romantic!”

Mei Ning:”...”

What was in his mind?

Noticing that Mei Ning was looking at him speechlessly, Hans immediately narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Xiao Xin, don’t you feel that our boss treats you very differently?”

Mei Ning frowned and shook her head. “What’s so special about him?”

She didn’t know what kind of person her boss was before, and she didn’t have much contact with him, so she didn’t know how he treated her and others differently.

However, she was very surprised and excited that he could take her in as a disciple and teach her how to draw.

Hans was about to faint!

He looked at Mei Ning as if she was a monster.

Mei Ning was a little embarrassed by his look and asked tentatively, “Are you talking about him taking me in as his disciple?”

Hans shook his head and sighed. “It seems that there’s still hope.”

Mei Ning looked embarrassed and said in a low voice, “Maybe he thought that I could draw, so he wanted to give me some pointers.”

Hans raised his finger and shook it at Mei Ning. “Do you know about our boss’s reputation in the art world?”

Mei Ning nodded. “Yes, I do. When he was young, he participated in a drawing competition and became famous overnight. Later on, he presented many amazing works and became a genius painter in the art world. As long as it’s his work, it can be auctioned off for a sky-high price, right?”

Hearing this, Hans nodded and said, “That’s one thing, but there’s another thing. He never randomly accepts disciples.”

Mei Ning thought for a moment and said, “I think I’ve heard of it.”

Hans pointed with his fingers and said, “In all this time, boss has only taken in eight disciples, and each one of them is extremely talented. You’re the ninth one, and he made an exception to take them in.”

Mei Ning was embarrassed. She paused for a moment and said, “What about the others?”

Hans was speechless. “Apart from senior sister Aileen, who has stayed by Boss’s side the longest, the others have long left their apprenticeship and started their own businesses. Wen Li and I are also about to leave.”

Mei Ning understood. “Then why didn’t senior sister Aileen leave her apprenticeship?”

Mei Ning understood Aileen very well. During Yue Yiming’s absence, she was the one who handled all the matters in the gallery. She was Yue Yiming’s right-hand woman.

Hans raised an eyebrow. “What do you think?”

Mei Ning thought for a while and suddenly widened her eyes. “She... likes the boss? !”

Hans immediately snapped his fingers at her. “Smart!”

Mei Ning was stunned. “Then... What about the Boss?”

Hans snorted. “If the boss liked her, the two of them would have been together a long time ago.”

Mei Ning nodded thoughtfully. “That’s true.”

But then again, for a person like the boss to be liked by a girl was reasonable.

“But even if the boss doesn’t like her, no one could compete with her in the past. Now that the boss has made an exception to take you in, I’m afraid her jealousy will be overturned.”

Mei Ning lowered her eyes and paused for a moment. “But the boss and I are really not what you think.”

“Okay, okay, okay. If you say no, then no. But you have to be careful. Don’t make sister Aileen angry.”

Mei Ning nodded. “Yes, thank you, brother Hans.”

Hans laughed uncomfortably. “You’re welcome. You’re now our junior sister. As a senior brother, I naturally have to give you some advice.”

Mei Ning was moved. Just as she was about to thank him, Hans suddenly moved closer to her and whispered, “But if you and the boss have any new developments, you have to tell me, right?”

Mei Ning:”...”

Over lunch, Mei Ning had mixed feelings. Most of the people in the gallery seemed to have misunderstood her and the boss. How should she explain this?
