“Young master, you should wait for a while more. It’s still a little too early to go in.” Manager Liu wasn’t able to stop Han Yishi. He had no choice but to get out of the car with him.
Luckily, Xia Corp already acknowledged that Han Yishi will be coming over to discuss the deal. The security guard didn’t stop him, instead, the guard immediately informed the representative from the advertising department to come and greet him.
However, Han Yishi made his way straight toward the lift. He knew that Xia Weilan was in the project department. Thus, he intended to look for her. But the moment the lift door opened, a young lady walked out from the lift. She paused when she saw Han Yishi.
“Hello, I am Xia Roulin from Xia Corp. Are you here to sign the contract? Let me escort you.” Xia Roulin quickly stepped back into the lift and pressed the lift button to the level of the advertising department.
She was thinking that if she led Han Yishi, others would think that she is the one settling the deal with him. That way, she could earn some merits.
But Han Yishi said, “I’m looking for the project department!”
Although Xia Roulin found it strange, she obediently pressed the floor level to the project department.
“I’m looking for Xia Weilan. Thanks for showing me the way!”
The moment they got out from the lift, Han Yishi saw a door across the lift with the door plate, ‘Xia Weilan’. He immediately made his way to the office.
Everyone in the project department saw this scene. And certainly, all of them saw Xia Roulin standing awkwardly on the spot.
With the blink of an eye, Han Yishi entered the office with his manager, closing the door behind them.
“Aunt!” As soon as Han Yishi entered the office, he immediately greeted the person sitting in front of the office desk. His sudden greeting startled Xia Weilan as she lifted her head to look at them.
“Young master, we’re at the office. Please don’t say whatever you please.” Manager Liu immediately tugs at Han Yishi’s sleeve.
“You’re here!” Xia Weilan beckoned them to take a seat on the sofa as she walked toward them. She took a glance at the clock and said, “Didn’t we schedule the meeting at 3pm? Why are you here half an hour early?”
Han Yishi was a little embarrassed. He whispered, “Aunt. You need to help me.”
He then explained to Xia Weilan how he got himself into trouble yesterday due to his impulsive act.
“Uncle had actually agreed to help me settle it. But after our meeting during lunch just now, he changed his mind, aunt…”
Xia Weilan felt her head throbbing from being addressed as aunt by someone who is just two years younger than her. This feeling made her cringe.
“Stop! Stop calling me aunt. You can call me Weilan.”
Han Yishi twitched his lips. In fact, it was very difficult for him to address her as his aunt, thus, he said, “Weilan, please help me to convince my uncle. He is not even picking up my calls now.”
Xia Weilan thought for a while and said, “I’ll try to help you convince him.”
Han Yishi immediately let out a sigh of relief. Even Manager Liu also felt at ease.
They could see that Mo Beichen truly valued Xia Weilan. A few words from her beats a hundred words from them.
That afternoon, Han Yishi signed a contract with Xia Corp to be their ambassador.
And because the deal was made directly with Xia Weilan, Han Yishi announced to all that she is the reason that he agreed to work with Xia Corps.
He winked at Xia Weilan when he made that statement. He then put on his sunglasses and left with style.
The rumors that there’s nothing that can’t be done if Miss Xia is around spread very quickly among Xia Corps.
“As long as Miss Xia takes over the case, it’s impossible that it won’t work out.”
“Do you still remember? Mr Z also agreed to collaborate with us because of Xia Weilan.”
“And don’t forget Mo Corps. Miss Xia went to the meeting with them and she got us a free rental deal. This is unprecedented in history.”
All of a sudden, Xia Weilan’s reputation grew instantly. Even the design department felt proud whenever they mentioned that Xia Weilan used to work in their department.
But in the project department, Xue Zhiqing and Xia Roulin were feeling depressed.
Especially Xia Roulin. She swept everything off from her office table and drove out from the office with a stern face.
Not long after Xia Roulin left Xia Corps, she noticed a car tailing her from behind.
“Ouyang Mingqi, how dare you mess around with me!” Xia Roulin was already furious. When she realized that she was being followed, she squinted and a sinister idea came into her mind.
Xia Roulin drove into a remote corner and Ouyang Mingqi followed her.
But Ouyang Mingqi didn’t expect that the moment he turned into the corner, he lost sight of Xia Roulin. A black car blocked his path instead.
Ouyang Mingqi put himself on guard. A few hooligans with baseball bats in their hands came out from the car and smashed Ouyang Mingqi’s car with the bats without second thought.
‘Smash~’ the sound of shattered glass was heard.
There was no way for Ouyang Mingqi to get out of the car because as soon as he got out, it was very likely that these people would beat him up with their bats. Thus, he could only cover his head with his arms to protect himself.
“Bah!” The hooligans stopped when they saw that the car was already in a sorry state. They returned to their car and drove off.
Ouyang Mingqi got out of the car and immediately called someone. The moment the call was connected, he immediately said furiously, “Xia Roulin! Are you crazy! How dare you do this to me!”
“So what? Who asked you to harbor wishful thinking on me! Let me tell you this, you can put an end to your daydream! The Ouyang Family’s reputation is declining. And soon, you’re likely to run out of business because of the Mo Family. What makes you think that you have what it takes to dream about courting me?”
Ouyang Mingqi had always been restraining himself. But at this moment, he simply couldn’t hold back anymore and scolded, “Hmph! Do you really think I can’t do anything to you? Let me tell you this, actually, I didn’t mean to do anything to you. But I’m telling you now, one day, you, Xia Roulin, will be most willing to marry me.”
Xia Roulin felt humiliated, she screamed, “I will never appreciate a person like you!”
“Are you still thinking about Mo Beichen? Let me tell you something. Mo Beichen is the one behind the incident where you got drugged.”
“Nonsense! Beichen-ge is not like you. He won’t do such a thing. Don’t try to use your dirty mindset to frame others.” Xia Roulin was roaring furiously. Ouyang Mingqi felt pain ringing in his ear, but he still let out a charming smile.
“You don’t believe this? That’s the truth!” A wild beast was hiding inside Ouyang Mingqi’s eyes.
“Just because you can’t beat him, doesn’t mean you can smear his reputation with dirt. Let me tell you, you are nothing but a loser. In front of Beichen-ge, you are forever nothing but a sore loser.”
Ouyang Mingqi punched his fist on the wall with a loud noise. Xia Roulin couldn’t help but feel a shiver down her spine. She regretted a little for provoking him in the first place.
Ouyang Mingqi was like a leopard who peeled off his decoy. He’s like a vampire who yearns for fresh blood with his bloodthirsty eyes.
“Xia Roulin, we’ll just wait and see!”
After Ouyang Mingqi finished speaking with his chilling voice, he hung up the phone immediately. All Xia Roulin could hear was the engaged tone resonating in her ears like the sound of a gust of scary wind, making her shivered all over.
She even started doubting if it was really Ouyang Mingqi who called her just now. Or was it a decoy?
Isn’t Ouyang Mingqi a pushover? Why did he suddenly turn into someone who is irritable and cold?
Could it be that she had really irritated him by asking someone to teach him a lesson?
