Chapter 906 - Year's Biggest News.
At the same time, in the conference auditorium, Feng Internationals,
On the bench of project heads, Qi Shuai sat taking the lead of the question and answering session. There were other executive officers as well but as usual, Feng Shufen wasn't present as the face of the company. And people of the media as usual blamed his aloof mysteriousness for his absence.
While coming here to interview for the project, they all wished to finally see the President of Feng Internationals, but not finding him on the table with the other executives, they weren't too surprised.
"So Director Qi, what would be the net worth of the project once it gets completed? Since it will also be in the government's interest, will Feng Internationals be taking them in the partnerships?"? Someone asked from the group of reporters and Qi Shuai's eyes at once turned to look at him, to bring him the answer.
Though the intent of the question was clearly to stir the trouble with the political section, Qi Shuai remained nonchalant to it. Smiling softly, he replied, "About the net worth we can't be sure. Though the expenses done on the project would be kept on the strict check, there would be no discount tolerated on the plans and their results. As we all know President Feng never compromises with the work he does."

He said and the reporters had no other loopholes to ask.
Giving his words, Qi Shuai was ready to put the conclusion to the meeting when suddenly he paused hearing Gao Fan's phone ringing in the side. He was amused to see that for the first time, the secretary had forgotten to put his phone on silent at an event like this.
Finding himself at loss as well, Gao Fan quickly silenced his phone, without checking the call that was coming from Du Fan. Keeping his phone back inside his pocket, he apologized to Qi Shuai before giving a bow of apology to others as well.
Qi Shuai also turned back to face the audience, ready to conclude the speech but at that right time someone from the middle again asked, "Director Qi, this is such an important project for Feng Internationals, will President Feng still not show himself? Is the rumor of him having some problem true?"
Qi Shuai paused. Was there some rumor going on? How was he still unknown to it? Did someone conspire to keep him in the dark so that he couldn't tease the Devil? If yes, then that person is really mean to snatch such beautiful happiness from him. He thought to himself, cursing the unknown person in his heart before turning to look at the person who had asked the question.
"What's the rumor that you are talking about?" He asked, excitement to know the piece of news was all evident in his words. But his excitement took a halt when he heard a cough of warning from the side. His eyes turned to look at Gao Fan who was there, standing as Devil's watching eyes on him.
Pursing his lips, Qi Shuai gave him a look and then turned back to look at the front to rectify his earlier words, "Haha, I was just kidding with you guys. Anyway, as for your question, you said it yourself. If that's a rumor, how can that be true? President Feng is alright and working hard both for the name of the country and the company. Only when he finds the situation worth his arrival, he would show himself. Otherwise, we could just wait for him."
He said and at his words, someone again asked, "With your words do you mean, this project is not worth President Feng's representation?"
Qi Shuai shook his head. "What I mean to say is, this project needs more of his work and his guidance than coming here to greet you all. So, he is not here. Furthermore, asking him this desperately, don't you think you are treating me unfairly? Am I not handsome and dashing enough to treat your eyes?" He asked and at his askance, everyone in the audience broke into a peal of synchronous laughter.
Of course, Qi Shuai, himself was an eye-feast. Not just in looks but also with his words. Who would dare to say otherwise? Everyone denied laughing and supporting him. "Your beauty is more than enough, Director Qi." N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net
At the side, Gao Fan could only shake his head at the over-exaggeration of the Director. But he was relieved to think that it was already near to its end and he would not have to witness more of his sweet talks like this.
Finally, Qi Shuai gave a warp to the meeting and was ready to get up with other executives to leave but his steps paused when he heard a whisper coming not from too far away. Gao Fan heard it as well and his pupils as well contracted to look at the employees discussing something at a distance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What did you say? Did I hear you say President Feng's wife?" one of the company employees asked in a whisper but it was loud enough to reach every ear.
"Yes, I just heard the urgent call from the receptionist. Though I have not heard the whole thing, she said that Lady Boss is in the office and now ascending to get on the President's office".
"Is President Feng already married? How come I have never heard of it?"
"Are you a dumb head? Last time did we not come to know that President Feng already have a daughter. If there is a daughter, how come there could be no wife?"
Some employees discussed among themselves and amidst their discussion, they almost forgot to keep their voices in check. Their words not just reached the ears of Qi Shuai and Gao Fan. But also piqued the interest of the reporters that were not yet gone.
Qi Shuai's brows furrowed at their talks and he was ready to ask Gao Fan. But before he could, the secretary was already on his way to rescue. But little did they expect that the swiftness of the media would be quicker than them.
Before they could even leave the auditorium hall, some of the reporters were already on their way towards the exit of the floor, ready to capture the year's biggest news.
