There was complete silence over the long conference table as all the directors and executives along with the management team glanced at her with their throbbing nerves and sweating palms.

Yu Mei pressed her elbow on the windshield of the car as she propped the side of her face on her fist, "Don't take my silence as my ignorance. Just because I am not coming to the company on a regular basis does not mean I have forgotten to monitor the work pace and my employees. Today's meeting was arranged to let you all know that either you pick up the pace and get the work done within the required time or mail me your resignation later before I fire each and everyone. Believe me, I won't hesitate twice before doing that," She frowned.

​​

The employees all looked at each other with trepidation apparent in their eyes. They knew that she was not joking as they had seen many such scenes in the past.

Right at this moment, her phone started ringing and her dimmed eyes lit up at the sight of the caller ID, a small smile made its way on her face.

The employees: "_" May god bless this person.

They wondered if it was their President's high profile kept man who had once given them a glimpse of his blonde hair and later they saw him on headlines in one frame with her.

"That's it," Yu Mei turned to look at them, her smile died down, "Go back to work," She disconnected the call and threw her iPad to the shotgun seat before answering the call on her phone.

"Where are you?" came his cool voice.

"On the bed," Yu Mei looked around as she made sure that the windshields of the car were properly sealed shut. She lowered the seat before leaning back in a comfortable position.

"Mei."

"Mm?"

"Who is your first love?"

The phone almost slipped from her hand as she quickly straightened up, "W-W-W…" Fuck. Why was this tongue so unruly? Why was it stuttering like that? "What first love? Who first love…?" Did someone tell him that she used to date his brother? No, it was her soul only. Now she is Yu Mei Zhen. It won't count probably.

She rolled her eyes at her own stupid logic.

"You are overreacting. Better forget about whoever that person was. You are mine."

She could not deny the absolute butterflies she felt at his last statement but at the same time, she was amused. This all time mature man can be a possessive territorial bad boy at times. Why did he even ask about her first love when he had to be jealous even before knowing her answer? She laughed.

She could hear him clearing his throat from the other side, "Are they causing troubles?"

They here referred to his family and she pretty much understood it, "No, your grandfather is not back yet so there are no troubles from their side," By the time she left Jun Manor and drove over to Eminence Headquarters, there was peace in their though but she was sure that it was only peace before the storm. The old lady would do anything to avenge her lost long hair.

Not that she cared. Who told her to talk about dragging Shen Lihua by her hair?

"He will not be back before evening as he is out for a meeting with the Chairman of World Bank."

I know that too. She thought but her response came different, "You have kept all of them under your watch, haven't you?"

There was a short silence over the other side before the man responded, "For your safety concerns."

He could not see the smile that made its way on her face at his words. "About the Chairman of the world bank…I guess it is the same person who has been desperate about meeting you since a long time…''

"Have you kept me under your watch?"

''I don't have the power to keep the CEO of Eminence under my watch,'' She laughed, "When we went to Shanghai for your business trip, I was sitting in a corner and observing everything and everyone. I remember seeing the Chairman of world bank and I also heard that he was looking for you. Of course, at that time, I did not know your real identity just yet.''

''Well…" Jun Zixuan paused.

Yu Mei could hear some rustling sounds from his side.

"I'll call you later."

"Okay~" The corner of her lips tugged up as she hung up and glanced at the entrance of the huge building where a man stepped inside followed by a bunch of bodyguards.

The man was none other than the Chairman of World Bank.

A few seconds later, another batch of cars stopped in front of the building while the Chauffeur opened the car door and Old Master Jun stepped out along with Jun Zihao. Both of them looked around and Yu Mei was sure that they must be looking for the man who has already entered the building. After some discussion between them, both of them stepped inside the building.

And more and more vehicles started gathering near the entrance as the media members and reporters started hovering around the place with excitement apparent on their faces.

I hope you like my surprise. She gazed at the highest floor of the magnificent building before taking an U turn.

By the time she reached Jun Manor, the atmosphere was still eerie as before but this time she found the shock apparent on Old Madam Jun's face as she sat on the couch with a woman beside her.

Her footsteps came to a halt when she recognized the woman. The so called fiancée? The cake face makeup woman had come to their university before to claim Jun Zixuan as her man if she did not remember it wrong.

How could she forget that day?

Her cheeks turned red slightly at the reminder of her confession to him but she soon schooled her expressions when the woman stood up and walked towards her.
