Love Me Harder, Mr. Fu Chapter 39

Advertisement

After hanging the call, she groans with irritation. The way he was talking to her, it was like he was someone else and the one who confessed to her a while ago was someone else. "Argh!" she clenches her grip on her phone with a loud groan. What else can she do other than follow that man's orders? She hates working under someone, listening to the higher-ups crap is not what she ever wants to do, but here she is noting the orders of a man she despises….or likes? Due to this reason, she decided earlier on that she won't be working in the business where she has to listen to the orders and work non-stop without any filial break.

Sucking in a deep breath and exhaling it slowly, she tries not to show any sign of frustration when she enters her father's office. He is already tensed and if he saw his daughter in a sour mood he will get worked upon it as well, so it's better to pretend. She enters the office and quietly closes the door. She walks up to her father's office desk, taking the four small steps in the middle, and pronounces, "Father, I talked to Mr. Fu."

"What did he say?" her father implores in an eager and desperate tone. His hair is getting whitish-grey on the side due to lack of sleep. Her father is a person who cares about his looks and maintains his well when countering with media and parties. Due to the company's pre- fallout, he barely cares anything about what he looks like right now.

"He already planned a conference meeting about this scandal. And also caught those traitors as well. He um..also said that I should be present in the conference as well" she asserts but she hesitates in the last line.

He only called her in the press conference when he should be calling her father or Ruxi because they are the obvious ones who should be present not her. She is not even an employee in the company and her being the Chairman is not finalized yet so getting public is definitely not the right time now.

"I mean, someone from our company because our company is hugely involved in this. I think the Vice President or you should go at the meeting and I'll tag along" she continues and explains hastily. If her father knew that she had slept with the Chairman of Fu and that he signed the proposal only for her, then she couldn't imagine what he will do.

"I see. I will send Ruxi on my behalf because I am jammed now so it's better if you both can go" her father declares unpleasantly, gesturing to the piles of documents that surround his big desk.

"As you say, father" she nods without any argument.

"Hao, notify Ruxi about it" he commands to the man who is standing behind him, holding documents in his hand. Apart from being a great right hand for thirty years, he is also a great man who is fiercely loyal to Mo Zheng Yuan.

Zhang Hao nods and calls Ruxi from the line placed on Zheng Yuan's desk. He told her what Zheng Yuan ordered him and Ruxi agreed to do it.

"Shi…I think it's time," her father lets out in a serious and determined tone. Time about what? She has no clue what he is talking about but then a sudden thought crossed her mind and she is guessing it's about the Chairman position.

"We will hold a meeting this coming Monday. You know what the meeting will be, right?"

"I guess it's about me being the Chairman?" she responds, unsure of her thought. She can't believe that it's been two months already and the next she knows, she will be the Chairman, for real.

"Yes. If we don't announce it sooner, it will be a problem. After you are officially the Chairman, you can handle everything without any permission from others and anyhow save the company…you have to". It's no statement, not an order but a mission that she has to complete no matter what. Shi Lian has gained a proper amount of knowledge of what to do as a Chairman and she is confident than before that she will save the company.

"I won't let you down" she smiles as she promises him.

She then excuses herself and exits from the office to go to Ruxi's office when she gets a message. Her phone was in her right hand, her palm securing it; she brings her phone upfront to see who it is. It was an unknown number but the contents that the message contains gives her a surety that it's from him. The text says:-

Da Silva Hotel. Hall No. 22. Be on time.

Surely a control freak. even his text sounds bossy and cold, just like the way he talked to her on the phone. She rolls her eyes seeing the text and switches off her phone. Taking the elevators, she reaches the 10th floor where Ruxi's office is located. Entering inside the office, the first thing she hears is a loud groan. Ruxi is signing the documents like a maniac, fast and unsteady.

"Miss Vice President, is everything alright?" she asks but regrets it instantly.

What a stupid question to ask when the situation itself is not alright. Ruxi shook her head, without looking up in her direction. She looks over to the small digital clock that stays on the cream and white wall along with some photo frames. She has half an hour with her before the meeting. She takes her seat and begins working on the unfinished work that she left yesterday on hold.

"We should get going," Ruxi tells Shi Lian glancing at her watch on her left wrist. She managed to fill out those documents according to what she planned but still, there are more she needs to work on but the meeting is more important than anything. They have still fifteen minutes left with them but Ruxi likes to reach earlier than the original plan and the other reason is that the Da Silva Hotel is a bit far from their company, so time may settle with it.

Shi Lian has informed her about the location and the hall number a while ago and Ruxi carefully noted it down. Working non-stop for almost 5 hours sure is tiring. Due to overwork, the signs of bad health can be seen on her beautiful fair face. There are dark circles and pimples on her forehead; even the little makeup she put is unable to hide it but she cannot be stressed about her looks at this moment when she has other things to stress over.

"Yeah, let's get going" Shi Lian agrees, getting up from her work seat and shoving important documents which they might need in the case and her phone in her purse.

They both leave the office together and walk to the elevator. Ruxi presses on the floor number and waits for the elevator car to reach the bottom floor.

"Do I look presentable?" Ruxi asks out of the blue, a tense look on her face while she checks herself up in the reflected mirror of the car.

"You look appealing and sophisticated, just like how you should be" Shi Lian assures her giving her an encouraging smile. She does look appealing with her black silk blouse and white pairs of pants with black sexy heels that give her the right amount of charm. She really is a beautiful woman who is a smart, hard-working, beautiful, and kind soul. Ruxi smiles back at her with a thank you and waits until they reach the ground floor.

Exiting from the elevator they walk out from the rotating glass door and stand outside while the driver comes with the car. The car stops in front of them and both the ladies hop on it. Telling the driver the destination, they settle themselves at the back. Shi Lian looks at the documents about the scandal and tries to make some notes while Ruxi decides to stay silent and calm for the time being.

In about eight or ten minutes, they reach the Da Silva Hotel. The driver stops the BMW car in front of the hotel and both ladies usher out of the car. Taking a deep fresh breath, Shi Lian prepares herself mentally and makes her inner self confident about what she is going to deal with.

"Let's head inside" Ruxi articulates and strides towards the front glass door with Shi Lian following her from behind.

The hotel speaks luxury and freaking money. The reception hall is as big as a ballroom in ancient times with silver and platinum decorum covering the place as a whole. Ruxi walks elegantly towards the manager who is standing at the left reception area.

"A pleasure to have you here, beautiful ladies!" he bows down slightly in a way to greet them, showing respect.

"Thank you. May I know where is hall number 22?" Ruxi asks with a professional smile.

"Let me take you there" he smiles as he says. He comes out of the reception compartment and guides both of them to the hall.
