Fengyu Group, President's office.
Qiu Jianbo stood with his head bowed in front of the massive floor-to-ceiling window, barely daring to breathe.
Before him, a solitary and aloofly beautiful silhouette stood with her back to him, gazing indifferently at the earth below, silent.
Qiu Jianbo felt an overwhelming pressure, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
He had just recounted all the events from Liu Family Village to Feng Yueji, but Feng Yueji had no response, leaving him extrely anxious, as if his heart was being clenched by a large hand!
The atmosphere was as heavy as dripping water.
After a long while, Feng Yueji turned around, looking coldly at Qiu Jianbo and said, "Manager Qiu, I've said before, the company prohibits anyone from engaging in illegal loan activities. As the manager of the developnt departnt, you condone your subordinates, outwardly complying but inwardly defying. Are you not taking , or the company's rules, seriously?"
At this mont, Feng Yueji was wearing a white fitted blouse, a narrow black skirt below, her moon-white round thighs exposed. This was true confidence; a strong woman never hides her beauty behind stockings. Her fair feet were in high-heeled sandals, her heels crystal-clear, her toes immaculate and delicate like orchids or musk. Combined with her powerful aura, the image of the ice-cold queen was fully displayed!
Qiu Jianbo kept his head down, not daring to directly face Feng Yueji, and said bitterly, "President Feng, I was wrong. I deeply reflect on my mistake. That Huang He actually acted recklessly under the company's na; it's my oversight..."
"Was it your oversight, or greed?" Feng Yueji's gaze was as cold as a knife, rcilessly exposing, "Luckily, you warned Huang He in ti, allowing him to make ands, otherwise, I wouldn't have easily let him off, and neither you!"
"President Feng?" Qiu Jianbo was montarily stunned, raising his head to look at Feng Yueji, seemingly in disbelief.
Before coming to plead guilty, he expected Feng Yueji to be angry, but didn't expect her to be furious to this extent!
After all, he was considered a backbone of the Fengyu Group and one of the founding mbers. Just because of a small mistake, despite him trying his best to redy it, Feng Yueji still said she wouldn't let him off!
Was it his illusion?
He subconsciously felt, Feng Yueji valued that Jiang Feng more than he imagined!
And Feng Yueji's next words further confird his suspicions.
"Before you leave, investigate when Mr. Jiang and that girl Liu Shiyuan will return to the city, then go with personally to wait and apologize face-to-face. You'd better hope Mr. Jiang forgives you, or there won't be a place for you in Binhai." Feng Yueji, expressionless, dashed Qiu Jianbo's last hope with a word!
"Leave... leave the job!"
Qiu Jianbo's vision darkened, almost fainting.
He regretted it imnsely; damned Huang He had really ruined him!
But give him ten guts, he wouldn't dare confront Feng Yueji head-on, so he could only act dejected like a frost-hit eggplant.
"Go. Handle the last task well, earn yourself a chance for redemption." Feng Yueji said coldly.
Qiu Jianbo, heavy-hearted and dejected, walked out.
He still couldn't accept what extraordinary relationship there was between the high and mighty President Feng and that Jiang Feng, prompting her to be so furious for Jiang Feng's sake?
He couldn't figure it out, and would never have the chance to.
...
In the afternoon, Huang He had already booked a hotel in the county town, the hired construction crew was arriving soon, and Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu had packed all usable items, waiting to move into the new house once it was built.
Overall, this incident turned into a blessing in disguise; so old items were damaged, but they received the 400,000 cash they never dread of, at least they wouldn't worry for the rest of their lives!
To thank Jiang Feng, Grandma Liu carefully prepared an even more sumptuous al than at noon to welco Jiang Feng.
While Jiang Feng accompanied Old Master Liu for tea and conversation, Wang Xiui quietly pulled Liu Shiyuan aside, whispering, "My daughter, your dad and I have discussed it, and it's the sa as before, Xiao Jiang is truly rare. You saw how he acted today; without him, our family would be finished!"
"Mom, I know!" Liu Shiyuan replied, blushing and bowing her head. Who could understand Jiang Feng's excellence more than she?
"It's not enough to just know, you must get along well with Xiao Jiang, understand?"
"Mom, I've already clarified with you last ti. Brother Jiang and I aren't the type of relationship you're imagining..." Liu Shiyuan said with a wry smile as her mother brought it up again, "Can you stop misunderstanding?"
"Not?" Wang Xiui was stunned. If her daughter denied when they talked about Jiang Feng at ho last ti, she could understand it as her daughter's shyness and insincerity. But now, under the circumstances, her daughter was still denying, making her aware of the seriousness of the situation!
"How is that possible? Then why did Xiao Jiang accompany you back this ti?" Wang Xiui asked in confusion.
"It's just friends helping each other I suppose. Brother Jiang is now living with a few of our roommates, and we have a good relationship. Seeing in trouble, he naturally wouldn't stand by." Liu Shiyuan thought this was the only reasonable explanation for why Jiang Feng repeatedly helped her.
"Oh, my silly girl, are you really that foolish? You're living with Xiao Jiang together, yet can't you take advantage of this proximity? Did you forget what Mom told you last ti? Do you want to drive Mom mad?" Wang Xiui said, angry that her daughter failed to live up to her expectations.
"Mom, you're overthinking it! It's not just and Brother Jiang living together, there are also two other sisters!" Liu Shiyuan explained helplessly. Wasn't her mom a rational person? Why did she beco so irrational when it ca to Jiang Feng?
"Then tell Mom seriously, do you like Jiang Feng?" Wang Xiui asked, frowning.
"I..." Liu Shiyuan shyly fiddled with her soft hands, stealing a glance at the dining table, unable to speak the truth.
More than liking; her heart was already full of Jiang Feng!
Seeing her daughter's expression, Wang Xiui knew she had feelings for Jiang Feng and continued gently persuading, "Then what are you being reserved about? I told you, don't always pretend to be a little girl. What if you wear out Xiao Jiang's patience? With a man as outstanding as him, learn to be proactive. I can't believe, living under the sa roof every day, there's no ti when it's just the two of you. Seize the opportunity!"
Wang Xiui truly wanted Jiang Feng as a son-in-law, or she wouldn't say such things to push her daughter.
"Mom!" Liu Shiyuan exclaid, flustered, "Why don't you understand? Brother Jiang isn't like what you think. Don't give bad ideas. Do you really think I'm worthy of Brother Jiang?"
"Why not? Isn't my daughter beautiful enough?" Wang Xiui flicked Liu Shiyuan's forehead, "Even in the city, you're among the top beauties. Trust Mom, Xiao Jiang definitely has feelings for you, otherwise, why would he always help us? Learn to read a man's mind, use a little cleverness occasionally, like when it's just the two of you ho. Give him a taste... You know what I an by taste, right? Mom doesn't need to spell it out, right? With soone of Xiao Jiang's character, once he falls for you, he won't just leave!"
"Mom, you're getting more and more outrageous. I'm not talking to you anymore!" Liu Shiyuan said, overwheld with shyness. She wasn't an ignorant little girl; she understood her mom's hints. But how could she bring herself to do such things?
She might never learn how to charm soone, even though deep down, she was willing to give Jiang Feng everything she had!
"This child!" Wang Xiui watched Liu Shiyuan run off, feeling a deep worry. If her daughter couldn't beco Jiang Feng's woman, it would be a huge loss for their whole family!
