CHAPTER 117

And just like that, Ye Cheng left the Bai residence and drove straight home, ignoring work for that day.

He had been deeply affected by the words he heard and was not looking like he cared about anything or anyone has only one thought reigned supreme in his mind.

Anger!

Or maybe more.

Hate, regret, vengeance and disgust.

Li Jing had waited for him to return and possibly tell her what he found out, but she did not see Ye Cheng at all that day and when she asked Han Qing Qing about it, the results was still the same, Ye Cheng had not returned.

Li Jing's heart became troubled as she could not get through to him on calls and what was even more worrying was that his phone was switched off.

It was one thing when the person you are calling is not picking his or her calls and another thing when their phones were switched off.

Judging from the past event, Li Jing's mind had started racing to different and varying angles about what had happened to him.

"Was it that he had gone to confront her and she had men beat him and lock him up since he figured her out.

Or was it that they had asked someone to follow him and try to kill him again.

Or that he met with an unimaginable accident too"

Or this.

Or that!

So many thoughts, mainly negative patrolled her mind at the moment and by the end of the day, she had to go home.

She had wanted Hua Duyi yo take her to Ye Cheng's house to see if he was around but she knew he may not allow her to visit.

So rather she dropped a message for him and went straight home.

–––––

In a very big office, like the size of two master's bedroom put together and a mini-sized living to relax when needed.

The interior was vaguely decorated with cream and dark blue coloured furniture and lovely paintings to decorate the room.

Towards the not too large living room were two long cushions that could fit three people each.

On either side of the cushion sat a man, in his late forties and a lady opposite of him, looking young like someone in her mid-twenties.

She wore a slender short silver strapless dress with her blonde hair let loose to cascade over the open back of her dress and some strands, loosely falling to her front and stopping just below her chest.

Her sun-kissed flawless skin made any guy standing close to her look like he had not been blessed by the sun before.

Her exposed thighs and slender legs radiated in the brightly lit room as she crossed one leg on top f the other and had her elbow resting her waist at the handle of the chair and the other holding the first together.

She was beautiful in all her endeavours and she knew just how to showcase it.

With one look at her, she could make most men fall for her in one go without having to do or say too much, all she needed do was to flash a smile at them and that was it.

"Mr Yu Xiaowen."

"Ys baby love?" The older man, Mr Yu replied her in a soft subtle voice, trying to entice her.

Even though he was a bit old, that did not stop him one bit to go after young beautiful chicks and the lady at his front was no different.

"How could you let Ying Yue take that spot and get to the top reporter of the year? Why did you not give that reporting job to me." the lady laid her complain to him without holding back or beating about the bush.

"Ru Mei Xing. that is not what happened and you and I know it."

"But still, you promised me the number one spot in the country but now that Ying Yue is now a top reporter." Ru Mei Xing complained.

"But the news was already brought down, she should have dropped from being top."

"True, that had happened but it did not change the fact that she was the reporter who took a shot of Ye Cheng two times in a role and I got nothing. Why did you not tell me Ye Cheng would be arriving for the event?"

"Hey, you cannot pin this on me, Mei Xing. I asked you to come and host the event as the reporter but what did I get? You stood me up, saying you were out of the country and you could not make it. What should I have done? Not have anyone report at my birthday party?"

Although she did not respond to his question, the look in her eyes indirectly said so. It should have been either her or no one else.

That was how much Ru Mei Xing prided herself and her beauty over everything else.

She had bluntly refused Mr Yu Xiaowen as she thought going out of the country to report an event was more important than anything else.

Little did she know that was when her golden opportunity would have struck and her chance to become the top reporter of the year.

"Besides, how should I have known that Ye Cheng would honour the invitation himself?" Mr Yu Xiaowen exclaimed.

Ru Mei Xing lost her composure and reacted. "What do you mean by that? Why wouldn't you have known? Weren't you the one that sent the invites?"

"Yes I did but that is not the point now, Mei Xing."

"I do not see how." Ru Mei Xing countered.

"Let me explain. Why do you think that since Ye Cheng returned to the country, his Face has not been captured by any reporter?"

"And how am I supposed to know? He chooses not to."

"Yes and no."

Ru Mei Xing raised a brow at him and sat up straight to listen to his explanation. Things were beginning to get interesting.

Perhaps she would get a piece of information that would prove useful, so she thought.

"Ye Cheng has only honoured eight events in all the twelve months since he came with over thirty plus parties and events held."
