Chapter 63 - This Name
Chapter 63 - This Name
His hand still held unto the file while the other was on his phone.
He was about calling a friend for help when he noticed something strange in the documents.
’Wait a minute. That name seems familiar." Ye Cheng thought as his eyes locked on a name in one of the files.
"Sir?"
Han Qing Qing noticed the strange look on her boss’s face and knew something was not right.
"Sir, what is the matter?" Han Qing Qing asked again.
"This name," Ye Cheng said and pulled out a document to show her what he made him shocked. "Zhao Xiao Mei."
"What about the name sir? It is one of the accounts that Shao Fen transferred money to. A sum of five hundred US dollars. I found it strange that the financial manager would send such a huge amount of money to a person whose name is not listed under any business dealings."
"That’s it!" Ye Cheng half yelled as the sudden realization hit him.
It was back then when they were abroad. Himself, Bai Qing Mei and Hao Huizhong had gone out to have a drink when they took too many and were slightly drunk.
Not too long later, Bai Qing Mei asked Hao Huizhong a question and that was were the fun had started.
It was also on that auspicious night that Ye Cheng knew his best friend was in love with him.
Bai Qing Mei had confessed her love for him since Hao Huizhong told her his alias female name that he uses when he wants to join a dating site for fun.
**Flashback**
"You should just come and join this dating site, Qing Mei. That way you may find a guy who you like and lives you back because I know you cannot love any other guy other than you know who."
The girl in the middle of the two men shook her head before turning to her left to face Hao Huizhong.
"I can’t. My heart goes to him and him only."
"Say what, I would tell you my alias name on the dating site, if you confess your love to him."
"True? Yay, I love that. This way, I can enter as a guy and stalk you hahahaha...."
Ye Cheng who was left out by the duo could not help but shake his head at them.
"Okay, tell him and I would tell you mine," Hao Huizhong coarsed but she shook her head.
"Fine. I would go first then. My alias name is..." Bai Qing Mei stopped all her swaying and looked deeply at her friend as though she could deduce what he was going to say next.
Even Ye Cheng who was paying much attention to his friend suddenly became interested.
"My trap name is, Zhao Xiao Mei," Hao Huizhong announced.
"Eh? Who uses such a name? Pfff, I thought it would be something sexy like a mixture of an English name and stuff. You know, something like Isabel, Darling, Special and all that."
"Nah, I think western guys loves our girls, especially when they can find one as beautiful and fluent in English as yourself. That would be the killer."
"Okay, whatever works for you."
"Yeah, it does. They all flock my notifications with messages. Now your turn. Confess to him."
"Confess to who?" Ye Cheng suddenly asked from the side.
"She should confess to you."
"What happened? What did she do?" Ye Cheng asked. He knew something was amiss from their silence but he couldn’t point it.
"Go on, tell him," Hao Huizhong urged her.
"Okay," Bai Qing Mei turned so that she was now facing Ye Cheng and quickly lowered her eyes when their gaze met.
Ye Cheng did not understand what was going on. She looked like a young wife blushing in front of her husband on their wedding night.
’Why is she blushing like crazy? What did she actually do?’
"Ye Cheng," she called his name softly and summoned up the courage to look up at him.
"I–I hmm... Well... You see..." She kept on stuttering her words causing Hao Huizhong to face palm himself at her behavior.
"Just say it, Qing Mei. It is your best friends that are here with you."
Bai Qing Mei could not tell if Hao Huizhong was actually helping or he was just enjoying seeing her in such a condition as his mouth spoke one thing and his voice and expression on his face showed another.
"What is it? You know you can always tell me."
Bai Qing Mei nodded her head at him and took in a deep breath.
By the time she exhaled, she was more than ready.
"Promise me you would fulfill my request, Ye Cheng."
"If it is in my power, then I would."
"Thanks. I love you, Ye Cheng. Always have and always will. I would love if you would be able to love me back."
**Flashback Ends**
As much as he wanted to think further into the past, the sheer memory of it all only made his heart clench the more.
"Sir. Do you know the person?" Han Qing Qing asked.
Ye Cheng blinked twice before looking at his assistant.
"I do. And now it all makes more sense to me."
"May I ask who it is?"
"I believe you already know him."
Han Qing Qing wasn’t that surprised but then she still found it hard to believe.
This person and her boss go way back and they had been best friends but how could he try to ruin the company and still steal from him?
"Hao Huizhong, tides have changed. Time to act," Ye muttered to himself as he narrowed his eyes.
His eyes seemed lost in an unknown thought giving off that wicked vibe with it and making onlookers scared.
"So what next, sir?"
"Han Qing Qing, pass me the document. I want to check out something first."
"Yes sir." She handed over the document to him and he to some time to go through the whole thing thoroughly before speaking.
"Han Qing Qing, we are going to need a new financial manager."
