CHAPTER 400

​​

"Money is no problem, ask for what you want and if I see progress, you get it and even more. Now please, you can take your leave." Bai Qing Mei ordered again.

"Thanks." She turned her head to look at Hao Huizhng one more time and smirked at him before mouthing… "Bye handsome to him." and then she took her leave.

Once she was out the door, Hao Huizhng did not do or say anything to Bai Qing Mei. He was thinking and calculating his next move.

'You think you can just use me as you like then run over to your obsessed lover? You jest Qing Mei, I would make you mine and mine alone. This time, I would fuck your sensitive body till you cannot walk anymore and have you crave my dick only.'

"Now, Hao Huizhong," Bai Qing Mei called out, standing from her seat and making her way to where he was. "I want you to get some people, trusted ones to follow after her and…"

She did not get to finish her words as the next thing she knew, he grabbed the top of her gown and brought her down to his level, crashing his lips on hers, kissing her with an unknown domineering force with no room for complaints.

After their little talk session, Li Xiu went home to inform her mother of all that had transpired, leaving out the fact that she was warned not to chase after Ye Cheng from the picture.

She knew her mother quite well, she would stop her as their partner in crime was a very rich and influential person. So she did herself a favour and not have a headache for the problem.

"It is settled then," Ding Jiaying squealed. "Our first plan does not involve money so we are good to go."

"Are you sure?" Li Xiu questioned. "It is not like a lot of people would be interested in the matter."

"People would be. You just have to wait and see for yourself how that turns out. Li Jing is famous now, I tell you. Most people would kill just to hear any negative comment about her."

"I know but in order to get a full-scale embarrassment as we hoped for, we may need to pay and arrange for some people. Let us say someone would act as though he knows her as well and when our act begins, he would ginger the crowd into believing that he knows our family and how much we helped her train her."

"Good, then some other people would also start throwing in negative comments from then on."

"Of which we would still need to plant them in there. Once they start, the masses would feel aggrieved, cause some girls hate her for stealing Ye Cheng, so we would be getting what we need no doubt after our people spice things up."

"Great idea. Now I see why you said we do need money. Should we contact them for the money first or what?"

"Relax, let us get our people first and then I can pay them some stipends, after all, all they need to do is just say some things and they would get paid."

"Okay." Ding Jiaying dipped her head in acknowledgement of what was to come. "So what else?"

"Now, the person I need t pay heavily would be the one posting all of these on social media while also instigating some rude comments for the masses. It would be a live record so that if things turn upside down and he is cut, they won't be able to delete it before lots of people see it."

"And for that, you need someone who is well experienced in these kinds of stuff. That would surely cost us."

"Yes but I still would not ask her for money. I want her to know that we can do things on our own and we are reliable so that when we began to call out expenses, she would trust us.

"Great!" She tightened her fist as she squealed in joy.

"Calm down mom. Dad is around or have you forgotten?"

"Oh relax, that husband of mine has travelled again. I bet to visit one of his mistresses, yet he tells me it is for business sake. Instead of going up, l I see is the business being stagnant. It is left for us to hit it big and then but the company from him and develop it, while we leave him as well."

"Nice plan but mother he is still my father after everything." Li Xiu's face, for the first time in a while suddenly turned sad. She loved her dad and part of it was due to the fact that she felt deprived of his fatherly love and always yearned for it as a child even till now.

"Tch, easy for you to say. You are not the one who has to bear in mind that you have a cheat for a husband, are you? He leaves home on a steady just to spend it with one mistress out there and fuck her pussy. Perhaps he feels I am now old. So forgive me for not feeling so touchy like you."

"Mother… I understand."

"No you do not, do not say you do. You had Duan Tian to live out your teen and youthful fantasies with. I could hear you guys and I had to admit I got turned on from it."

Li Xiu could not believe her ears. Did she just hear her mother actually say she got turned on from listening to her and her boyfriend?

"But why my daughter enjoys, my own husband is something else. I am just telling you so you are prepared, but once I see a guy of my fitting, I would not hesitate and get down on it with him. After all, I am still young and I have some needs too. It doesn't pay to be faithful to one cheat."

"Sigh, mother, I cannot say I support you. What if father is not cheating as you have said?"

"Are you kidding me? With all of the businesses he has been doing, where is the result? Secondly, how did Li Jing come about or you believe that useless story he told you of him adopting her?"

Li Xiu lowered her head. She did not know what to say to counter her mother's words. It was true. It wasn't like they did not have a child and he went to adopt a grown girl without consulting his wife and daughter first.

Everything wasn't plausible. "I do not believe but what if it is a mistake. I mean it was a mistake." She did not even understand her own words anymore.

Her parents' marriage was on the brink of failing and she could not stop it.

"Mistake my foot. Just pray you do not marry a cheating husband but if you do, be prepared for something like this. Who knows, you just may get it worst."

Reaching up to her forehead, Li Xiu massaged her temples as she listened to her mother's babble. How in the world did they get to this conversation again?

"Mother stop!"

"What!"

"Just stop okay. The main goal is Li Jing and if after that and all our money you and dad want to divorce then that is your own cup of tea. You twp have your own life to live as I do have mine. Get ready the day would soon come when we would need to put our plan into action. For now, however, I would make the necessary calls and see if I can meet these persons tomorrow sp that latest Thursday, next tomorrow, we would be getting down to business."

"Fine!"

"Sigh, please tell me there is food, all of these shouting had made my stomach begin to churn."

"Sure, there is, go get freshened up and your food would be served."

"Thanks, mum."

Li Xiu picked up her bag, ready to move upstairs when a message dropped into her phone.

'Oh what again!' she let out a sigh and checked her phone since it was right in her hand. Immediately she unlocked the screen, the news she saw, left her mouth opened wide and her eyes… Oh dear Lord!

Ding Jiaying who had been watching her daughter just now, was stunned to see her reaction. It was like she just got a proposal or was it that she won a lottery?

She could not figure out which one it was exactly and just shook her head then waited fr her to come out of her stupor.

She watched silently as Li Xiu's fingers and eyes scanned her phone with so much joy and fascination in them until she raised her head to look at her.

"other."

"Yes? Why are you looking like someone who just hit a big shark?"

"Because I did mum."

"What?"

"The lady, Bai Qing Mei, just dropped a total of 300000 bucks in my account for the first job. A job that shouldn't even be up to 100000 bucks. Wow!"
