Yang Zi, the lady, quickly forwarded the files to her partner and got into a position where they couldn't see her at first glance. She immediately went to grip her small dagger just in case it got dicey. She exited the room just as the guards turned the corner and she cleared the immediate danger. The way out would've been dangerous if it wasn't for her partner warning her about a patrol coming her way.

Without looking at the office, she quickly slipped into it. It was only when she read the name tag on the table did she realize what office she was in.

​​

"Lady! Just checked the footages - I saw a stupid looking fellow holding a blue envelope earlier in the office you're in. Looks pretty important. Maybe revenge level important. No need to thank me even though I know you're desperately resisting the urge. It's okay honey, give in." Her partner's voice was filled with great pride making her chuckle for a bit.

"You're so full of yourself." Yang Zi murmured before getting straight to work. "Watch my back."

She started searching the office for any possible secret space the guy could have hidden the blue envelope. It didn't take long before she found his safe. Being an all around expert in infiltration, it only took her five minutes to crack the safe. She glanced through the documents and was ecstatic.

"Haha ha! I can't believe you were right this time! This is perfect stuff!" Yang Zi laughed maniacally. Even when she was happy she still couldn't resist taking a jab at her partner. "That'll teach him a lesson for getting in the way of my healthy vengeance."

"..." Her partner couldn't believe he heard her say that this was in any way shape or form healthy. No matter how much these bastards deserved it, there was no way this was healthy.

....

In the illustrious BEST Enterprise headquarters, the constant sound of scribbles was a common occurrence. If there was a prolonged silence, the head secretaries would probably call in the security details to see what happened to their CEO.

On his desk was an assortment of important documents. From project proposals to government contracts, the never ending stacks of paper towered over all. The intimidating sight of said monstrosity commanded respect for the CEO that had to deal with it.

As he was navigating through the legal logistics of exploiting child labor in the textile industry, the large flatscreen caught his attention. The caption read 'Viral outrage ensues with the revelation of CEO Chu's dark business'.

"Video clips of CEO Chu brutally raping numerous women in different occasions were recently put to light. Evidence of other immoral acts also went viral earlier this morning with documents to prove CEO Chu's illegal activities." The anchorwoman spoke in an even tone. Even her years of experience couldn't hide the disgust she had for the man of the hour. "As of now, CEO Chu and his accomplices are under police custody for further questioning. It's been years now since many of the…"

As a man who also dealt with the abyss that was the business industry, he was quite interested in how far the degenerate of the Chu family fell. From CEO Chu's personality, he never had a shortage of enemies. Now that the man fell this far, everyone was going to try to take a piece of his pie.

If he wasn't wrong, Chu Corporation was bidding for the Winbrar Green Energy Project. His handsome face grew into a wicked smile. Pausing momentarily, he re-calculated the chances of obtaining the contract now that the Chu Corporation was out of the picture.

Smiling, he put the thought in the back of his head. He'd deal with it later after the others made their move. Turning his attention to the original document, he tuned out all the sound. His brown opaque eyes glinting slightly.

Just before he could put pen-to-paper, there was a knock by the door. His eyes darkened slightly before engulfing in a mysterious shade of black. His eyes furrowed in annoyance as he stared at the culprit who ruined his mood.

His office was built with glass walls. He didn't need to open the door to see who was knocking. Unhappy with the interruption and even more unhappy with the interruptor, he sighed as he commanded for her to enter.

The beautiful woman smiled devilishly as she walked by the news. Her expression showed unbridaled satisfaction when she heard about the ramifications experts predicted the Chu group would face.

CEO Li not once took his eyes off the paper he was working on. The lady's beautiful charm and tasteful clothing did little to affect his work ethics. It was as if she was never in the building. Even knowing that the CEO was purposefully ignoring her presence, her steps were filled with grace and confidence.

It was only when she stood there for six minutes unattended, she furrowed her eyebrows. Knowing she had better things to do than stand there, she spoke her mind.

"CEO Li, you realize how treating your visitor in this manner could be interpreted wrongly?" The lady asked with a cold glint in her eye. The man who it was addressed to acted completely indifferent to her question. The lady already knew that he wanted to teach her a lesson. Something along the lines of humbling her and she couldn't resist the temptation to roll her eyes.

'How childish.'

"If you don't agree with the deal between you and your grandfather, voice your concerns to him. Acting this way won't get anything done don't you think?" The lady asked with a tint of anger in her tone.

Hearing the blatant disrespect in her voice, CEO Li responded fiercely.

"Don't you recognize the relationship between employee and employer? I recommend you watch your tone."

For the first time since she entered, CEO Li set down his pen and looked straight at the lady in front of him. His arctic indifference faced her burning glare. The lady his grandfather scouted didn't lose out in their exchange of wills. She stared straight at him unwilling to surrender.

"Let's first recognize the relationship between one human to another." She retorted with a scoff, "And to be clear CEO Li, I have yet to sign the contract. I don't work for you."

Seeing as how CEO Li wasn't going to offer her a seat, she strutted down to one of the couches and sat down elegantly.

CEO Li shook his head. There was something about the woman that annoyed him no matter how tired he was. The fatigue he felt from the past few sleepless nights was gradually going away as his anger level started rising.

"Wow! So fierce! You're just like how my grandpa described you." CEO Li said sarcastically as he walked to where she was sitting. Her elegant posture expanded on her peerless beauty.

Hearing this she raised her eyebrows.

"Cold and unwilling to submit. Lovely traits might I add." CEO Li said as a smile bloomed on his face.

"And you are no different from the rumors. Mean and indifferent. At least mine could be considered as a charm." The lady said with a bright smile. Her purpose was to piss the CEO off even more.

The CEO continued to smile. "You're quite the interesting lady. Here I thought you were some boring, timid, obedient, and lovely lady. We'll see how you act after signing the contract."

He slowly crossed his legs in a confident manner. His tight fitted suit did well to highlight his defined muscles. The lady in front of him was graceful and confident while he was tyrannical and overbearing.

"Wow! Great speech Mr. Li, have you considered becoming a job recruiter? After your amazing moving words, I look forward to signing this contract." The lady just oozed out sarcasm with every movement.

.Just then, CEO Li's executive assistant entered with a brown envelope in his hand. His presence broke the weird vibe of the room. When CEO Li stared at the man in front of him, he couldn't help but scowl.

"What the hell took you so long?" The CEO said seriously, "Can't you see that you've kept a VERY important guest waiting?"
