CHAPTER 228
"As for you, Xi Nuan, I do not need you here. Scram!" He bellowed. "Darling, come. Let us head into my office," he said to Ning Xiaozhi with a tone hundred per cent different from the one he had used to scold Xi Nuan
"Do you regret your words now?" Ning Xiaozhi whispered before she left with Ye Chaoxiang.
The lady gritted her teeth and clenched her just at the turn of the event. She felt so angry. Xi Nuan regrets what she said.
"Now, I will not be able to see Doctor Ye's handsome face as often as I used to. But it seems he has a girlfriend. He even called her sweet names," she pouted and glared at the door that had been shut close.

Inside Ye Chaoxiang's office.
"Welcome, my love," Ye Chaoxiang said as he hugged her immediately they stepped into his office.
"Hmm. Thank you," Ning Xiaozhi smiled as she hugged him back.
"So, tell me. What pushed you to come over to my place of work to see me?" He asked.
"Oh yeah! How do you intend to give me mental and physical support?" Ye Chaoxiang asked as he closed the little gap between the and snaked his hands around her waist.
"Wh-What ate you thinking of?" Kong Xiaozhi asked with a flushed face as she avoided his gaze.
"Not. What are you thinking of? Tsk. My little girlfriend is having naughty thoughts, is she not?" Ye Chaoxiang further teased.
"Stop it. I did not think about anything naughty, you shameless man."
"Shameless or not. You love me anyway, right?" Ye Chaoxiang smiled bewitchingly at her.
"Stop teasing me, Ye Chaoxiang," Ning Xiaozhi said as he hid her face on his chest. Ye Chaoxiang chuckled.

"Aww! I feel touched," he said.
"I m being serious. I was worried. That is why I came to visit you. You did not call or text me since two days ago," she complained with a side pout as she looked up to him.
"Sigh. I am very sorry about that. I was so damn busy. I have not even gone home to my apartment for two days," Ye Chaoxiang explained.
"But still, I know that I should have even left you a text, at least. Being busy is not an excuse. I am sorry for making you worry so much," he further apologised.
Ning Xiaozhi felt butterflies dancing in her stomach. She was so so happy that she had found a guy like Ye Chaoxiang. She was happy ge loved her. What more could she ask for?
"It is okay. There is no need to be apologetic. I understand that your line of work expects you to be available twenty-four seven. But now that I have seen you, I feel relieved," Ning Xiaozhi said and then she placed a small kiss on his lips.
Ye Chaoxiang was a tad bit surprised. She had taken the initiative to kiss him. He could not have been happier. Feeling related, ge held her chin lightly and kissed her deeply.
After their long kids, Ye Chaoxiang led her to a chair opposite his. He then walked to his mini-refrigerator and asked what she wanted.
"Uh... What would you like to have? Juice, coffee maybe, it water?" He offered.
"Juice, please," she picked.
"Okay. What about good? Have you eaten? It is already afternoon, have. Please do not tell me you have not had anything before you came here?" Ye Chaoxiang said as ge stared at her.
"I have not. That is why I came here. I bought lunch for the two of us to eat. I guessed that you might be hungry. So..." She shrugged her shoulders leaving the latter part of her sentence untold since he knew what she was talking about.
Ning Xiaozhi lightly shook the paper bag she had in her hands. It was then Ye Chaoxiang took notice of what she was holding. He chuckled.
"Sigh. My girlfriend is so thoughtful," he said.
"Thank you for your kind words. Now, cone on and let us eat," she said
"In a minute, let me get you your juice."
While eating, Ning Xiaozhi and Ye Chaoxiang had a chat if how their day had been going, especially Ye Chaoxiang.
"I have carried out almost six surgeries during this e last few days," he said.
"This! The hospital sure was busy. You must have been stressed out," Ning Xiaozhi said as she lightly rubbed his arm in comfort.
"Yeah. It was hectic. The while hospital was packed with so many people that were the family, friends and witnesses and also victims of some accidents that may have occurred. I kept jogging from one ward to another, from one operating room to another. You should have seen me," ge said and shook his head before electing out an exasperating sigh.
"Hmm. It's no wonder that lady has to speak for you," Ning Xiaozhi said out of the blue.
"What? Where us that coming from?" Ye Chaoxiang asked in confusion.
"It came from the fact that she likes Doctor Ye," she said nonchalantly and shrugged.
"Whoa whoa whoa. Hold up. Is it just me or do I smell jealousy in the air?" He teased
"So what if I am jealous? I am your girlfriend. I have every right to be."
"Hahaha. Not denying, huh? Don't worry. You have me all to yourself."

In City X, at Bai Jewelries.
Ring!! Ring!
"Hello, Fang. Any update yet?" Bai Ming asked.
"Good afternoon, Ms Bai. I am sorry to break it out to you but there is no update yet. My men are still waiting for the right moment," Fang's voice came out apologetic.
"Why? I want an update. I want our plan to be carried out as quickly as possible. Why are you taking so long? Are you and your so-called men that incapable of carrying out such a small job?" Bai Ming yelled through the phone.
"Please calm down, Ms Bai. I have already explained to you all these things. It is quite hard to get her. But I assure you that we are going our game here," Fang explained. He tried to make her see his side of the whole situation.
"Urgh!! So damned useless, I swear. I am tired of waiting already. I gave been waiting for 'the right moment' for a very long time. For pet's sake, Investigator Fang. Do you want that bitch to come for my property before you take her down?" She asked.
"No, young miss Bai. Please, have more patience with us. We are working on it. I promise you. We will get her before your deadline. So please, relax," he said.
"Sigh. I do not think I will be able to do what you said. I do not think I will be able to relax and be calm," she said in a low voice but Fang could still hear her.
"Gave a little bit of faith in us, Ms Bai. That step sister if yours will not get your property before we deal with her first," ge assured her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alright fine. I will exercise more patience. Please do not let me down, investigator Fang. I am banking on you. I hope I will be satisfied with the result."
"We will not let you down, boss," Fang said.
"That is much better. I will hang up a now," she said.
"As you please," was the last thing she heard from investigator Fang before she ended the call.
Meanwhile, former Vice President of Jiang's Corporation, Jiang Bojing was forging with his plan. He and his two lackeys were searching for something defaming to use against Bai Renxiang.
"Listen, Jiang Bojing. It looks like this our new CEO is clean. I have not seemed to find anything bad about that lady," Mr Quan said.
"Yeah, me too. It is like she is a clean slate," Mr Fan also said.
They were currently in the study of Jiang Boning as they gave their reports. Hearing their words, Jiang Bojing could not help but be surprised.
"Is that so? Even I seem to not be able to get a hold of any scandal or something from the granddaughter of that brother of mine," Jiang Bojing said as he stroked his chin.
"What do we do now? We can not possibly let her go scot-free from what she did to you," Mr Fan said.
"Definitely not. I will not do that. She must pay for the humiliation she had caused me," Jiang Bojing retorted.
"We know. So, what do you suggest we do? I suppose you have another plan right?" Me Quan asked.
"Hahaha. You know me well, my friend. You know me well," he laughed. "I am always prepared. I have a plan B," Jiang Bojing started.
His words caught their interest as the other two men adjusted closer to the table to listen to his plan B.
"Tell us. Why is it?"
"It is very simple and common amongst people who are trying to get others out of their way of reaching the top and gaining power," ge started.
"Okay."
"Carry on." Mr Quan and Mr Fan urged him to say more if his plans.
"I have already prepared some of my trusted men. I will have that CEO Bai Renxiang, kidnapped."
