Liang Xi Cheng looked at Yan Liang's panicked face, and instantly his brows furrowed.
Was he that scary? That every time when he needs to face her, he can't even take a step forward. Her panicked expression was like she was looking at the surge of beasts?
"Why are you so nervous to see me?" He raised his eyebrows and walked step by step towards his desk.
Yan Liang quickly hid the design behind her back, and calmed down, "…no. "
She paused and quickly started a subject. "Chairman Liang, didn't you go to C City today?”
"Well, the matter was canceled temporarily. "
Liang Xi Cheng loosened his tie then he sat directly on the executive chair. When he looked up, he noticed Yan Liang's hands were hidden behind her back. Her face seemed nervous as if something happened.
"Secretary Bai, what are you hiding behind your back? " Yan Liang's heart jumped and she shook her head. "No, no ah… "
If she let him discover that she had modified the design without his permission. He'll be furious, won't he?
Blame herself. Why didn't she just hold back? Bai Yan Liang, you really had nothing better to do!
At the same time, she secretly scolded herself, and thought of debating with Liang Xicheng, "Chairman Liang, that… then I am going to make you a cup of coffee."
“Wait."
Yan Liang can only halt.
Liang Xi Cheng's two fingers casually knocked on the big table, “Show me your hands.”
Yan Liang knew that Liang Xi Cheng was not someone so easy to deceive, but now she still audaciously struggle, pursing her lips and she shook her head "…Chairman Liang, there is really nothing.."
"You are acting like that, this place does not have 300 taels of silver[1]. So, what have you stolen from me? " He didn't look forceful, and his tone was a little relaxed. Especially looking at the way she dodged his questions. He hooked his mouth. "If you really like what I have here, you can tell me directly so that I will give it to you. Don't sneak around, alright? "
Yan Liang bit her lip and knew that she couldn't hide it. She took out the design hidden behind her. "I… didn't steal anything, just that… I accidentally drew a few strokes on this design. I am afraid that you will be not happy, so I… " Before she could voice out, the drawing in her hand had been taken away by him.
Liang Xi Cheng used his index finger and middle finger to hold the drawing and narrowed his eyes as he glanced at her. Naturally, he saw her modified part. He looked at her with a smile. "I remember you said yesterday that you are not competent. What do you think now, huh? " . Yan Liang's cheeks were slightly red.
Things had happened now. If she wanted to twist more, it will be too pretentious. Anyway, the drawing had been repaired. What things was she still afraid to say?
She gathered all her courage and said, " Chairman Liang, I think this kind of modification can make the whole design look more exceptional."
"Now I want to know how many points you would give to your modified design? " He held his chin, looked at her with a sly look as if he was expecting what her scores were.
Yan Liang felt a bit embarra.s.sed, but she quibbled softly. "…seventy."

From the Chinese idioms 此地无银三百两. It's a reference to a story about an idiot who put a sign saying such a sentence right above where he hid the silver. You can check the story from this site
