Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 348 - The Devil already knew his plans.

Zheng Wenting's face instantly became stiff when heard the words of Mr Tang Daozhi. His forehead got the beads of anxiousness but then suddenly he heard the man let out a chuckle of easiness at the scene. He was all dumbfounded like a town fool.

"Haha … Chillax! CEO Zheng. My words are nothing serious, but it is definitely not wrong too".

"What do you mean, Mr Tang?" Zheng Wenting asked, gently wiping off the beads of sweat from his forehead. He feared that to settle one of his problems, he would bring another disaster to himself.

"Like I said, CEO Zheng that it's nothing new. I never knew that it would freak you out this way. Just relax, I had a simple meaning behind my words that my actions and intentions would always remain in the well being of Feng Internationals and President Feng, no one else. So, I asked are you sure that I had your well being in my mind? But that never meant that good of our organisation cannot become the good of your enterprise"

Tang Daozhi explained his intentions behind his words as he stood up to leave. He knew his words had not cleared the doubts of his so-called friend but clearing his confusion had never been in his assigned task. So, standing up, he simply said, "Then that was all CEO Zheng! Now I would take your leave. I still have some work to attend to". Saying his words, the man smiled and turned to leave.

Partially in delusion, Zheng Wenting nodded and then stood up to accompany the man till the exit but was suddenly paused when he saw him turning to look back again at him. Raising his brows, he was about to ask out of courtesy if there was something, he had forgotten back but before he could even start, Mr Tang said on his own.

"And yes, CEO Zheng … you don't have to worry about anything. You have got Feng Internationals support at your back. Though the support would no be too much, still you know that will be the best anyone could get from us"

Zheng Wenting reciprocated the smile as he nodded his head in understanding. But little did he know the reality. The story that the Devil was planning to execute on him. He was too na?ve to think literally when he should have seen much deeper through those words.

Tang Daozhi could only shake his head internally at his foolishness. Some people are too innocent to see the Devil's ways coming their way.

After he left, Zheng Wenting remained in his office. Though he wanted to think again about the contract he signed, any doubt seemed useless to him. Since the decision was already made, why look back? Furthermore, it was not like Feng Internationals had any revenge to take on him.

Right at this moment, he heard a knock at the door and then pushing in, came the secretary, Mr Sheng.

"CEO Zheng, I am here to remind you that you still have a meeting with the CEOs of Oriental and Galaxy Light modelling agency. They are already waiting for you in the conference room" the Secretary informed.

But instead of addressing his presented words, Wenting asked him, doubtfully, "Mr Sheng, what do you think of the contract we got from Feng Internationals. Do you consider it as a short-run loss or a long-run profit?"

This secretary of his has remained in the office for a good year of success now … He remembered that his father used to tell how beneficial this man's thoughts were to him back in his days.

Mr Sheng simply smiled as he replied, "Sorry, CEO Zheng! But your any of the two option does not define what I actually feel about this deal. But since it's you, who have taken the decision then you would definitely have decided on the benefits of the company. Everyone here, have their faith in you".

Zheng Wenting felt like a sharp dagger was smoothly pierced through his soul. The words had nothing in his offence, yet his internal being was feeling offended. Not by this middle-aged secretary but from himself.

Those words were not wrong. He has definitely taken the decisions in the benefit, but he was not sure if his decision was biased towards the company's well – being or the well – being of himself. However he tried to ignore it, he still felt a sense of guilt inside.

Coughing to clear the lumps of culpability formed in his throat, Wenting quickly shrugged off the talk he, himself, has started. "Ahh … we have people waiting. We should not delay our time here. Let's head to the conference room" Saying his words, he quickly stood up, took his suit jacket from the side and headed out of his office cabin at once.

Outside the building of Zheng Industries, Tang Daozhi was still waiting. Puffing the smoke of the cigarette while leisurely leaning on his car, his eyes were busy staring at the building smiling at his own found discoveries.

After some time, his hands moved inside his suit pocket to get his phone out. Dialling the number, he smiled as updated all politely, "Senior Secretary Gao Fan, we have succeeded in executing the first phase of President Feng's orders. But I was curious to know something. What audacity did this guy show to come in the wrong book of President Feng? He does not even know how unlucky he has become all of a sudden".

A soft peal of a chuckle was heard from the other side of the call, followed by the words, "In the world of President Feng, nothing is all of a sudden. That man has committed an audacious sin 5 years back to bring this misfortune now. Though all of this was decided long back, the things only escalated when he dared to repeat his mistake from the past again".

Gao Fan snickered.

Did he really think that the Devil would not know what he was planning? How foolish was he for thinking something like this?
