CHAPTER 84
With his thought set in place, he felt like he was invincible and took a U-turn back to his office.
As soon as he left, Han Qing Qing stepped out from where she was hiding.
She was actually leaving after Ye Cheng had left but stopped when she heard Hao Huizhong's familiar voice on the call with someone.
Although she never intended to eavesdrop on his conversation, he just happened that when she heard him talking about the events of today, she could not help it and decided to listen further.
'How low have you fallen, Hao Huizhong? This is your best friend we are talking about here.' She shook her head at her thoughts and waited a minute before she stepped out and walked to the elevator to take her leave.
Ye Cheng picked Li Jing up and dropped her at home before making his way to his house.
It was a stressful day for both of them and no one had the time to hang around for small talks.
Immediately Li Jing got back, she slumped on the chair in her living room in the condo unit as she tried to catch her breath.
Who would have known that after being away from work for one week, her first day resuming work would be this stressful?
"Li Jing, fighting! You can do this, okay. Ye Cheng needs the help to flush out the scums in his company. Help him out."
After her little pep talk, she managed to drag herself off of the bed and went to her room.

In the chairman's office, he sat down in his joined living room in his office and sipped his drink gently.
To his left-hand side, a lady was seated with her phone in her hand as she chatted away on it. To his right, another man, in his late thirties was seated with a glass of wine in his hand as well as both men engaged in a conversation.

"That was what he said?" The young man Lee Bai said to the older man.
"Yes. Ye Cheng has resurfaced. He confirmed it."
"Should we attack now or wait?" Lee Bai asked.
"Were you deaf or you weren't listening when I told Hao Huizhong to lay low for now?" The chairman replied angrily.
"I heard, but I felt you were only referring to Hao Huizhong." Lee Bai defended himself.
"Hmm, I wonder at times if you people use your head at times. Anyways, we would watch Ye Cheng for now and wait till he makes a move."
"But what if as he is making the move, he gets to find out all our plans?" Lee Bai asked.
"Are you stupid or what, Lee Bai? How is he going to find out if all our men keep shut and do not do anything stupid for the meantime? If no one does, he would just be going around in circles."
"Okay, sir. I would give the order for him to be followed from afar and note his every move."
"You are very stupid."
Lee Bai was shocked by the insult he just got from the chairman. All through he had thought he was saying things that would please the chairman. Normally it always worked, so why now he was getting angry at every little thing he said?
"No, chairman. I am not stupid."
"You must be very stupid to even reply to me that way. What part of lay low don't you understand? Do nothing at all. Do you think Ye Cheng would not have his men on the lookout from far and near in case anyone suspicious is following him?"
Lee Bai felt mega insulted today but there was nothing he could do about it either.

"What grandfather is trying to say is that his guard would be up at this point in time. So the best thing to do is to play safe and make him feel like he is safe when he finds out no one is watching him and let him lower his guard down."
"Then at the right time, we strike again," Lee Bai concluded for her.
"Exactly. You get it now," the lady said once more.
"Thank you, young miss."
"Good thing your brain functioned well at the last minute or else I would have dismissed you."
A cold sweat broke out from Lee Bai's forehead at the word dismiss. He did not need a ghost to tell him what the chairman meant by that for him to know just how close he came to losing it.
He gulped down heavily and quickly took a sip from his drink to calm himself down.
Of course, his behaviour did not go unnoticed to the chairman and he smiled at the effect his words had.
'Good to know he still knows whom to fear.' The chairman thought to himself. He looked to his right and his eyes locked with his granddaughter and she smiled.
He knew she was having the same thought as he and gave her a nod to acknowledge her thinking.
"For now we watch through our spies in his company and nothing more. Is that understood?"
"Yes, chairman, sir."
"Good."
***
By the next day when Ye Cheng got to the company and made his way to his office, he met Hao Huizhong standing by his door waiting for him.
He had not gotten to his door but just took the bend going to his office directly. From the side, he saw Han Qing Qing working away at her desk.
He was not happy about the sight and turned his head to look at Han Qing Qing. He gave her a deadly glare but when she mouthed her apology to him his expression relaxed.
The look he gave her next was as though he was mentally communicating with her and asking why she did not warn him about Hao Huizhong waiting at his door.
Han Qing Qing pointed at her phone to indicate she left him a warning.
He let out a soft sigh as he recalled he placed his phone on do not disturb mode since the previous day.
"Phew!"
