CHAPTER 547

On the other hand, Hao Huizhong and Bai Qing Mei did put their heads together to check out Li Jing and Ye Cheng.

At first, she tried contacting the guy she hired to watch Li Jing but when he could not give her any positive answer or information, Bai Qing mei resigned herself.

It was at this point in time that Hao Huizhong told Bai Qing Mei of his plans.

"Hey, do not lose hope just yet, you know."

"Why? I do not have proper tabs on her."

"Perhaps Ye Cheng has discovered your spy or to my best knowledge, due to the set up we did for her, he had become more cautious and does not allow any information slip out. Because if I were in his shoes, I would make everything seem okay to my enemies and not let them have the upper hand."

"Come on, who are you siding now?"

"You know I am on our side. I am just trying to reason from the enemy's point of view," he explained.

"Fine. I understand what you are saying. It is just frustrating that I still cannot get one over her."

"I understand."

"No, it is more or less like any time I get this close," she drew her pointy finger and her thumb together, "This close, I end up losing her. Until when can I get even with her?"

"Soon, Qing Mei. Soon. Do you trust me or not?"

"I do but you know it isn't easy as it is pissing me off. It has been more than a year now. What am I even saying, we have been plotting against him for quite a long time now."

"I understand but we can still bring him down and your grandfather's company would remain top."

"It is easier said than done you know. The longer we wait, the more he is expanding his business with other industries. We failed to embezzle money so he would go broke and now this."

She let out a sigh and shook her head. "I do not know. I just, I just… Gosh!" she slammed her fist hard on the bed and made the bed shake.

"Calm down. Hitting your head against the wall or throwing a fit is not going to bring him down and you know it. We should settle down and plan well. Then and only then would things be okay."

"Haven't we been doing that?" She looked at him with eyes filled with no hope. "We have planned carefully before but one thing always goes wrong."

"Yes we have but this time, we would be thorough and think out all the outcomes there is to be thought and then we can take him down because we have expected, articulated all possibilities."

"Are you sure?"

"Very. Okay, see. I wasn't going to tell you this before because well, you were all to your grandfather and you still did not love me."

"Hey, why are you saying that?"

"Because it is the truth Qing Me."

"What is it? Are you hiding anything from me?" she pulled away from his body and looked at him sternly. "Huizhong, what is going on?"

"You see, now you have begun with that attitude. We all have secrets in this life and I was never obliged to tell you mine. It was exactly why you weren't told before. You feel so entitled to everything and life isn't like that."

Her face fell at his word but no matter how sullen she was, he was telling the truth.

"Cheer up. Even though I am scolding you, it is for your own good." Saying that Hao Huizhong drew her closer to him and kissed her briefly before resuming from where he had stopped prior.

"Well, it has been my secret for quite a long time now."

"You are scaring me. Just tell me what it is already."

"Fine, but promise me you will not tell your grandfather. Promise."

"Why? What do you want to tell me?"

"Qing Mei, I need you to be able to promise me. If you can do this, then yes I would tell you but if not, I guess we can just assume we never had this conversation in the first place.

For some time she did not say anything to him and just remained there, staring blankly ahead.

After a while, she looked at him and nodded her head. "Fine, I understand. I promise not to tell."

"Thank you. For a moment there, I thought you would not agree with me. Hmm, thanks."

"Okay, just tell me already. You are making me itch with anticipation and at the same time, worry."

"Okay, I am sorry, here we go."

"Go where?" she asked looking confused.

"I meant, here we are, like this is the secret."

"Okay, I am ready."

***

Seated in his luxurious well-decorated office, the elderly man in his early sixties turned about in one of his executive chairs facing the big doors directly.

For a long while, he did not say anything and just stared ahead into space as his chair twirled on its own.

After some time, he took in a deep breath and released it sharply. Things were not going as he had planned and now he had waited for more than a year for his past failure to subside so he could attack again.

KNOCK KNOCK!

He looked up at the door, not so sure if he was going to answer it now that he was deep in his thoughts but after a while, he settled down and spoke out.

"Come in."

The door opened revealing a man in a pair of blue jeans trousers and a black turtle neck, long-sleeved top. Taking a step inside, his black boot echoed on the ground, producing an offensive noise signalling his arrival.

"Seriously?" Those were the first words to escape the old man's mouth upon seeing the young man.

He was trying to think and this ingrate was making noise with his boots.

"My apologies Chairman. I…"

"No excuse, just take your seat quietly, Lee Chiang." His voice clearly showed his impatience and annoyance all the same.

"Yes sir." novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net
