CHAPTER 398

​​

"Ah! Li Xiu, come in. Welcome."

She actually thought it would be a meeting between her and the lady in question, so why was he here? Regardless, she got to find out soon enough as to why the moment he opened the door wider and she stepped into the room.

Trying not to be too noticeable, she sniffed the air around her. It was as though a wave of strong perfume hit her nostrils hard and then, there was another scent in particular.

Her eyes opened a fraction further up when she noticed what the scent was. Normally, when one sprays so much perfume all at once especially in a room. T meant they were hiding something. It was either a fart or the second and most likely option, they just sexed things up.

Slowly, Li Xiu's eyes turned to the side where Bi Qing Mei sat down silently with her legs crossed over each other and a glass of wine in her hand.

As one who frequented the sexual act a lot, Li Xiu knew could tell the stench of sex easily even when masked with perfume as she did that on a steady after she and Duan Tian finished fucking their brains out at home.

The last thing she wanted was her father finding out or walking in on them. So her narrow escape when he was home was that.

"Hello, good noon ma."

"Please, do have a seat," Hao Huizhong directed, Li Xiu and she obeyed. Now that they were sitting he continued with his speech, proceeding to his introduction. "As you know well enough my name is Hao Huizhong and this lady seated right here is no other than Bai Qing Mei, heiress and CEO of Zhang Corporation."

"Thank you, Hao Huizhong. My name is Bai Qing Mei and nice to meet you, Li Xiu. My apologies for having to make you wait but then, I just needed to fix some things and be sure that you would keep to time and avoid being late."

"I see." Those were the only words, Li Xiu could think of to say right there. She did not believe the sorry excuse Bai Qing Mei was giving considering she was a lady and she could tell why.

Regardless, she smiled it off and just sat comfortably. 'I thought you were smarter than this, Bai Qing Mei, noted in her mind while still keeping false appearances.

"Now, as to why I called you here for the mission, is so we can find or reach a consensus and then no one would cross each other's privacy and all."

"Okay, if you say so. So you are agreeing on what plan to be precise?" Li Xiu asked.

She did not know why this meeting was called in the first place but if she wanted to clear that air out, she decided to get it out fast and quick so she could focus on other things.

"Yeah, I have some plans ready and waiting for the right time but I need someone suitable to implement it. First, of, I want to make Li Jing a public spectacle."

"And how do you intend to do just that?"

"Hmmm…" Bai Qing Mei smiled at her. She had even expected for her to the table with ideas of her own but rather she came with nothing. "First of, let me hear what plan you have in mind in getting back at her for ruining your family."

Li Xiu's smile skyrocketed at that moment and she sat down straight. It was as though she had been waiting for an opportunity to shine and right now, she got it.

"Yes, before he reached out to me, my mother and I had already planned on something. She was going to intercept Li Jing in an open place and start accusing her of being a bad child and the daughter of an ungrateful mistress. He plans on making her feel terrible through the masses, letting them know how she cared for her, only for her to be rich now and abandoned us."

"Hmm, sympathy from the masses. I like that one. My first plan was going to be to kidnap her and deal her a good beating, then leave on the street or, get someone to drug her and leave her in a compromising situation while we take pictures of her cheating on Ye Cheng and watch as their marriage crumble."

"Wicked. I like that."

"I also plan on using this means to crash their marriage and get Ye…" Li Xiu began to say when suddenly she saw the change in Bai Qing Mei's eyes and knew she had just touched a forbidden topic.

"YE CHENG IS MINE!" Bai Qing Mei half screamed at her, her anger rising by the second, starting the once free Li Xiu.

Li Xiu held her breath in anticipation of another one of her outburst. She was not used to people shouting at her except her father sometimes and he was the only one she feared, no one else but now a fellow girl like her had the guts to raise her voice at her?

Hell NO!

Li Xiu did not say anything but let her gaze dag to the other side where Hao Huizhong was seated. He too had a look of shock on his face. He had least expected she would do or say that.

"Ye Cheng is mine," Bai Qing Mei repeated. "Under no circumstance are you to go near him."

GULP! "Do I make myself clear?"

Slowly Li Xiu nodded her head. Her chest risen up as she held her breath.

'This lady is a tyrant." Li Xiu noted. 'How dare she have the guts to yell at me? Does she think she has the right to a grown man like him or is it because she feels she has the money that she can shout and give orders?' Li Xiu eyes her a bit but she was careful not to let the latter see it.

'Isn't she the one in this hotel fucking another man and now she says she wants another? How shameless is she anyway?'
