Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

Chapter 82 - The Devilish Queen

CHAPTER 82

At the mention of his friend’s name, Ye Cheng averted his gaze at him, waiting to hear his response.

"I am sorry but you should have thought of that before you decided to play dirty."

Mr Choi Ho’s eyes widened in shock from what Hao Huizhong had just said. Before he could get over the shock, Ye Cheng plunged him into another misery.

"As of today, Dream Star Corporation seizes to have any dealings with Jiang Group."

"No, you cannot do that."

"Yes I can. I just did."

"Ye Cheng, please reconsider. I was not aware as well," Mr Choi pleaded.

Ignoring his plea, Ye Cheng stood up and the others did with him. "That is it for the meeting. Good day, Mr Choi."

Without another word, he moved from his seat and left the conference room with Li Jing following behind him.

"Dammit! Arrghhh!"

****

By the time Ye Cheng got to his office, he opened the door and stepped to the side to let Li Jing enter before he followed and locked the door.

He offered her a seat and to his seat near the window directly opposite her.

Unconsciously, he took a look around his office and slowly exhaled, closing his eyes as he did.

It was still hard for him to believe that he was away from this place for such a long time.

He had missed his office, his laptop, his work. They were all his babies and one thing he loved doing irrespective of the stress that came with it.

Li Jing took in everything around her including his little me time that did not pass her eyes by.

It was nice seeing him act like this. Somehow it made her feel as though he still had a sense of living like it brought him closer to being a human being other than the god-like being she perceived him as.

Ahem!

Ye Cheng cleared his throat and Li Jing returned her wandering gaze back to him. She tilted her head to the side a bit as her eyes narrowed a little with a small smile dancing graciously on her lips.

"Yes?��

"Thank you for today."

"Until when would you stop thanking m for every little thing I do for you? You have done so much for me as well. Way more than I ever did."

"There is nothing I can do for you that can equal what you did for me and I am exceedingly grateful for that."

"Li Jing’s brows further creased at his statement.

’What does he mean by that?"

Ye Cheng noticed the confused look on her face and smiled to himself. "Pardon me. What I meant was, you saving my life. There is nothing I can do that can ever equal that, well except I save yours in return, other than that, I can never repay that debt."

"Let it be. I never asked you to repay anything. Just be grateful to God I happen to pass there when I was brooding over my..."

Li Jing paused in her sentence and lowered her gaze. She was about saying her heartbreak when she recalled that the last thing she wanted is feeling anything sadness because of that Duan Tian.

Ye Cheng did not need a ghost to tell him before he understood what had almost happened. Rather than continue to dwell in the past, he changed the topic.

"Han Qing Qing would take you to your office and you can resume your duty fully. I would see you at the close of work or during lunch."

"Okay. Thanks."

Li Jing stood up and left his office, leaving the boss to handle the things in his company.

Without being told, she was already planning on leaving him alone. She knew he had a lot of work to handle in the company, especially since his absence and with the fraudulent acts that had been going on in his company, she would also have her own quota to handle.

She also wanted to ask him about Hao Huizhong because from the look of things, he penalized Jiang group by cutting ties with them but never did anything to his own people who supposedly previewed the business deal and were about signing the contract and closing the deal.

There was no way any one of them would tell her that they did not see all these coming. All the loopholes were there waiting to be found. They all closed a blind eye to it.

It simply meant, they were in a cohort together and planning on bankrupting the company. Irrespective, she chose not to touch the subject as it may be a sensitive one for Ye Cheng.

It would be insignificant of her if she failed to notice this change and still brings something deep out when it should be lying low.

Li Jing felt bad for Ye Cheng. He seemed like a nice man under that cold and distant wall he kept up.

He did not look like the kind that would hurt his workers, so what wrong did he do to deserve ingrates like them working for him.

She now began to suspect they had a hand in his attack and the kidnapping of his girlfriend.

’Bloody murderers. I cannot believe the greed of human beings and the wickedness that is left in its wake. I hope Ye Cheng would be able to settle all the problems relating to his company. It would be sad if the biggest company in the city actually meet his downfall.’ Li Jing thought.

As soon as he closed the door behind her, she made her way to Han Qing Qing desk to relay the message to her.

’Now, that I am here, I would try my best and make sure such nonsense and dubious deal do not repeat itself in his company again. It is the least I can do for the help he showed me.’ Li Jing mentally noted.

"Hello," she called out to Han Qing Qing who was busy with what she was typing.

Raising her head, Han Qing Qing’s eyes locked with the beautiful damsel in front of her desk. "Hello. We have not properly introduced ourselves yet. I am Han Qing Qing but you can call me Qing Qing."

"Oh, Han Qing Qing. Such a nice name. My name is Li Jing as you may already know. Nice to meet you."

"The pleasure is mine, really."

Both ladies at once already got to like each other from a simple introduction. Han Qing Qing could not place it but there was something about Li Jing that made her likeable by anyone from the first talk with her.

"Come, I would show you to your office."

"Thank you."

"No worries. I am just doing my job."

Of course, she was doing her job as Ye Cheng asked her to see to it that Li Jing had all that she needed in her office to get settled in right away.

Almost throughout that day, Li Jing put her things in place and later called for a meeting with members of the financial team to introduce herself to him and know those who she would be working with.

At first, they saw her like a weak and normal girl who only got her position and job by sleeping her way through with the boss to get it.

So when she started talking they never wanted to take her seriously, little did they know that they were talking to someone who knew what she was doing and she had handled workers who behaved this way before.

She placed all of them in their place by asking a few questions and challenging them with the laws of the government and that of the company as well.

She asked for the chart and documents related to the financial records and gave her own assignment to everyone to take home.

Each and every person in the finance department was going to do a thorough preview of all records and find any problem in them.

They were each given that week to do their own share of the records while she would do a general search of all the records during that same time frame.

Her speech and way of handling things made their thoughts about her start to change.

Most of them called her the devilish queen, liking her to their boss and CEO, Ye Cheng who when it came to work was as serious as anything and would not take things for granted.

The only difference was that even when she was serious, she did not elucidate the same frightening and breath seizing aura that Ye Cheng did, causing them to tremble.

"That is it for the day. The meeting has come to a close. You can meet me if you have any further enquiries or issues pertaining to your share of the work. I would be happy to explain everything to you."

"Yes, ma."

Without saying much, they all got up and left the meeting room to their respective desks and offices.

"Phew, what a day!" Li Jing muttered to herself and equally took her leave to her office.
