Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Chapter 625: The Awakening of the Old Crocodile (8)

The car arrived at Changda, Director Liu got out, and noticed nothing unusual happening within the company. On his way, just as before, he took the dedicated elevator for directors, which went straight to the central conference hall of the board of directors.

Today, his granddaughter was in a bad mood because Chen Jiaming, preoccupied with his own new company, wasn’t working at Changda, so Xiaoliu simply didn’t co to Changda to work either. After all, her purpose in coming to Changda was solely to get close to Chen Jiaming, nothing else.

Here, Director Liu couldn’t see his granddaughter Xiaoliu, nor could he see Sister Cai, Chen Jiaming’s person.

The young male employee who opened the door to the conference hall for him was an unfamiliar face to him.

Therefore, Director Liu couldn’t help but ask him, "New here?"

"No," said the male employee.

"Where is General Manager Cai?"

"Inside making tea."

Who else could possibly require Sister Cai to personally make tea?

Within the company, directors undoubtedly held higher status than ordinary employees, but as the executive director, Sister Cai wouldn’t be expected to make tea for a director personally, especially since there were nurous directors. Could Sister Cai possibly make tea for each and every director? If it were privately done to intentionally ingratiate herself with a particular director, there might be such a possibility.

The more Director Liu thought about it, the more he felt sothing was amiss. All of a sudden, he had an intuition that he should turn around and run away.

Just as he was about to reflexively touch his stomach to indicate discomfort, a voice suddenly erged from inside the door, "Isn’t Director Liu here? Why isn’t he coming in? I heard he is eager to et Director Kang, Director Kang is here, quickly let him in, don’t make him wait at ho."

This familiar voice, one he would never forget even as he lay in his coffin, belonged to Xiao Jianming!

Director Liu’s complexion turned pale in an instant.

The secretary who had followed him shuddered as well.

What? Xiao Jianming had woken up? When did this happen? Why hadn’t anyone in Mingxin Hospital, arranged by him, notified him? What on earth was that damnable hospital chief doing!

The door, obeying the instructions of the owner inside, swung open directly in front of Director Liu.

Director Liu took a glance inside.

He saw Xiao Jianming sitting on his own throne, arms crossed, in his usual posture, showing not a trace of illness on his face, his features stern as if he were an invincible war god who would never be defeated.

Involuntarily, Director Liu sucked in a breath of cold air.

Looking around, Kang Junjia, who had been conspicuously absent before him, stood with his head lowered like a dispirited rooster beside Xiao Jianming.

As for Kang Baojun, Kang Junjia’s incompetent son, for so unknown reason, was kneeling at Xiao Jianming’s feet in an apparent attitude of apology.

From this, it appeared Xiao Jianming was indeed very strict in separating public from private matters.

Kang Junjia was his relative by marriage, so they were equals; he had no right to make Kang Junjia kneel, but Kang Baojun was his son-in-law, and he could make Kang Baojun kneel until he ran out of breath.

Indeed, Kang Baojun was a pampered rich kid who lacked discipline. Physically he was even more delicate than a woman, a hollow shell. Having knelt for not too long, his legs were not only sore but weak, and his head was dizzy, ready to faint at any mont.

Cough cough.

Director Liu coughed deeply twice and finally took the first step forward into the room. Facing Xiao Jianming, as if seeing a long-lost friend, he displayed an expression of surprise and delight and said, "Chairman, you’ve recovered from your illness. Why didn’t you tell us imdiately? You don’t know how many people have been worrying about your safety during this ti you’ve been ill; I was one of them."

"Isn’t this notifying you?" Xiao Jianming said, "Besides, indeed too many things have happened in the company while I was ill, so I had to rush back to the office first. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to give an explanation to the directors and shareholders."
