CHAPTER 97

"Check the news, grandfather, the girl with Ye Cheng." The young lady said and crossed her arms in front of her chest.

Her grandfather sighed and knowing his granddaughter well, he knew whatever it was that made her angry must be very serious.

After waiting for some time, he spoke to her. "Show me the news let me see," he probed her calmly.

She unfolded her arms and let her hand fall to her side as she spoke. "Grandfather, I do not have it. My phone got broken."

It was then that her grandfather followed the line of her sight and saw the broken phone on the ground. Knowing his grandchild well, he knew it was not that the phone got broken but that she actually hit it against the wall.

Shaking his head, he signaled for one of the maids to hand over the remote control for the television to him.

Quickly, a maid stepped forward and picked up the remote then handed it to him with a bow and returned back to her position.

He switched on the TV and the news came on.

"With the shocking revelation that has been making everywhere buzz, it is no doubt that this must be the news of the month, if not the year. Reporter Ying Yue has in no doubt given the public something they have been dying for, as for the first time, Ye Cheng's image was caught on camera for everyone to see. That was not all that was shocking and definitely not the news that blew the net and social media platforms. What was even more stunning was 'the beautiful mysterious financial manager' by the side of Ye Cheng at the birthday party of Mr Yu Xiaowen. She is in no doubt, as Ying Yue had put it, mysterious as no one knows the identity of the beautiful stranger by the side of Dream Star Corporation's CEO, Ye Cheng. Right now, Ying Yue's social media blog is beaming with comments as most of her fans and non fans are probing her to reveal the name of this damsel. Since this morning, several questions have been coming in from fans all over the country. Most of which have been positive comments about the couple and a few negative ones from heartbroken fans all over the country. Above all, only a few positive comments or in this regards, question, were of imminet concern as that was what everyone was dying to know. The fans have been asking, where has Ye Cheng being hiding this mysterious lady since? They are also eager to know if she is his fiance and if so, when would be the supposed marriage? This news would in no doubt definitely lift Ying Yue as the numbet one reporter in the country seeing as she not only was the first reporter to bring to light the dashing handsome CEO but also news about the female financial manager. Everyone sits on the edge of their seats as they await more stunning news and hopefully breathtaking ones from the rising reporter of the year. Over to you Lee Ming."

The newscaster finished reporting her news and waited for her colleague to continue.

Just as the other reporter was about to resume from where the first newscaster stopped, the elderly man muted the television screen and dropped the remote control on the table beside him.

After which, he let out a deep sigh as the news he just heard was a little bit disturbing for him but for his granddaughter, he just couldn't say.

Slowly, he brought out his phone from his trousers pocket and walked over to one of the chairs in the large living room to sit down.

Ring! Ring!

Meanwhile, the young lady of the house was stamping her foot on the tiled floor with both hands bow resuming their former position in front of her chest as she awaited her grandfather's next move.

"Hello, Chairman, good afternoon sir." Hao Huizhong greeted politely.

Unfortunately for him, the Chairman was not in the mood for pleasantries and immediately went straight to the point without beating around the bush.

"Hao Huizhong, what kind of news is circulating in the city and the country?"

"What news are you talking about, sir?"

"Hao Huizhong! Do you take me for a fool?" The Chairman hollered at him through the phone, sending shivers down the spine of the maids present.

Rather than feel worried or scared, Hao Huizhong was as calm ad he could ever be. "I am sorry sir. I do not take you for a fool, but at the same time, I have no idea about what you are talking about."

"Haven't you seen the news?" The Chairman's voice echoed through the phone again, more loudly this time.

"I am afraid not sir. I had somethings I had to clear up this morning and have been busy till now. What news specifically?"

"The very same one that has been trending. Who is the young girl, financial manager beside Ye Cheng?'

'Young girl, financial manager, besides... Oh!' Hao Huizhong thought to himself about the question the Chairman asked him till it clicked.

"Oh sir, that would be the newly employed financial manager."

"What happened to the first?"

"He was laid off by Ye Cheng and he brought her."

"And you did not see the need to tell me?" The Chairman shouted into the phone this time around, shocking Hao Huizhong who was least expecting it.

"I am sorry, sir but she looked like someone who wriggled her way in by using the right connection, Ye Cheng. I thought I would not trouble you with such matters and handle it myself. I was going to pull her under us the way we did the last financial manager." Hao Huizhong defended.

"And do you call this handling? Huh, Hao Huizhong?"

"No sir. I was not aware Ye Cheng went for that birthday party. Considering he only went with Han Qing Qing, his secretary or his girlfriend."

"What does this tell you?"

"I do not understand sir." Hao Huizhong lied.
