Xie Yuansheng looked at Feng Xinying who was looking very relaxed, happy and was in fact beaming. She smiled at him as if to encourage him to speak further.

Xie Yuansheng took a deep breath and started, "As you all saw the day before yesterday that Xie Weihui made a claim as the rightful owner of this company after her husband's death and even went on to name her daughter Miss Ru Shishi to be the CEO of the company to replace me. Well, there are a few things I would like to clarify today."

He looked around at all the members, a shocked expression on their faces. They were waiting for them to get married because they had already announced their relationship on the company website but when did they get married?

"Feng Xinying and me are in love, you all know that, right?" he looked at them with a smile, inviting chuckles and meaningful looks. "The two of us couldn't stay away from each other and so we decided to get married. I am sorry, I couldn't keep my hands off her. I am guilty as charged," said Xie Yuansheng putting his hand up in the air with a blush and a shy smile. He looked so cute that everyone in the boardroom, instead of gossiping started laughing at their CEO's helplessness. They looked at Feng Xingying who had turned deep red and was smiling with her head hung low.

Immediately, they started commenting:

"Xie Yuansheng, you bastard, at least give us a treat now!"

"CEO Xie Yuansheng you are a sly fox! You grabbed the famous model and actress before others could even get a chance!"

"Well, you better give us a dinner!"

They started joking at the two lovebirds and laughed away. So instead of this becoming an issue, their marriage actually worked to their benefit.

Xie Weihui gritted her teeth. She was breathing heavily out of anger and jealousy. The way Xie Yuansheng sounded, it worked to their advantage. Xie Weihui lambasted, "So why did you keep it under wraps for so long? Why didn't you tell the media about it? It doesn't suit the image of the CEO of the Feng Conglomerate to secretly marry a model and an actress. What a scandal?"

Xie Yuansheng looked at her and very calmly said, "Feng Xinying wanted this to be public soon, but it was me who didn't want this to go public because of the industry she is working in. Over there married women don't get much of a chance to get good roles and since this was Feng Xinying's debut movie we had to be extra careful about it."

"Then you must give this news to the media now!" lashed Xie Weihui.

"Mrs. Weihui, why should I tell anyone about my marriage? It is very private to me. However, to quench thirst of people like you, we are hosting a grand celebration next month and will definitely call you to grace the occasion," replied Xie Yuansheng with a smile.

Once again there was a huge laughter across the boardroom table. Xie Weihui was extremely angry now. She immediately took her phone out and messaged her famous journalist friend about the "scoop" of the film industry and the business world. She asked her to publish it immediately on her blog, the newspaper's blog and also on the TV channel she owned.

She received the message sooner than she had sent:

[Sorry Weihui, not possible. We don't want to rake up issue with the Xie brothers.]

Xie Weihui's blood drained from her face. She sent a message to another less known journalist, but got the same answer. None of them were ready to publish the story. She had contacted five journalists but all of them refused to even talk about this news. Suddenly, she got an idea and thought of posting the news on her social media accounts. She logged in and typed a message to post but found that there was no Internet in her phone. She looked at Xie Yuansheng who was laughing and talking to others. Her gaze went to Feng Xinying who was watching her with narrow eyes.

Xie Weihui let out a heavy breath and then put her hands on her mouth. They had put jammers around. Now she couldn't contact the outside world until the meeting was over.

Xie Yuansheng went on to speak further, "Yesterday there was a huge amount of shares of the Feng Conglomerate that were floated in the market - around ten percent. We were scared that someone was trying to sabotage the company's image because we also heard a rumor that someone had spread about company making losses this quarter. It seems that the person who had spread this rumor wanted to sell his shares at a low price in order to shed a huge bulk, which would have been a natural thing for the market also. However, as a company, we had to intervene. So we placed the order to buy that bulk, which escalated the sentiment of other shareholders and the price increased. Overall, we ended up buying those ten percent shares at a higher price, but we saved the company's shares from liquidating to that extent."

"We have lodged a complaint against the shareholder with the stock exchange to ban him or her from trading anymore and to seize their shares in order to protect our company's interest."

Xie Weihui's face paled. "Ban them? What do you mean Xie Yuansheng?" she shouted at him making others look at her with suspicion.

"I mean what I say Mrs. Weihui…" replied Xie Yuansheng with a shrug, once again inviting laughter from other boardroom members. "I haven't spoken any rocket science."

Xie Weihui was now extremely anxious and nervous. She looked at her lawyer, who was also appearing to be too nervous.

This was a huge blow to her. If she got banned from trading, not only her left twenty percent shares would be seized from her, the ones that she sold were also gone now! Her bank account would be frozen until the investigations take place.

She had to play her trump card, which was to expose the true identity of Feng Xinying to the people in the boardroom. She got up from her chair and looked at Feng Xinying.

Xie Yuansheng saw her getting up and said, "My wife would like to say a few words now. So with your permission, can she speak?" He was so polite that the members smiled. As a matter of fact now they wanted her to speak. As the wife of the CEO, her status had risen ten times than what they looked at her earlier. They all started banging the tables in front of them to welcome her.

Feng Xinying had always been a good orator. She looked at Xie Yuansheng, smiled and held his hand that he extended to help her to get up from the chair. She looked so pretty that everyone in the room was mesmerized by her looks. That was in fact Feng Xinying's first plan – to look prettier than usual and create an effect on her audience. She was a professional in that.

She stood in her place and bowed to the people in front. "Good morning gentlemen and the lady in red," said Feng Xinying with a lopsided smile.

They all looked at Xie Weihui and started laughing. Feng Xinying's opening note was interesting. Her note was pun-intended. She knew that Xie Weihui was actually red with fury also apart from the red dress she was wearing.
