Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 134 - Not too severe but neither any less.

As those words shot out of Qi Shuai's lips, the first person to show the reaction inside the room was none other than the silent secretary. Gao Fan felt like he was hit by thunder. Those words simply made him feel like the whole world has been endangered.

Director Qi, did you even know what big hole you have created for yourself? This is the blame that your destiny has brought to you. Cursing the devil will only bring you bad luck, not good fortune. The secretary mumbled in his heart, remembering the news he had brought for his President Feng.

While Gao Fan was feeling pity for Director in chief, Qi Shuai was feeling all relieved after venting out his spleen, until he felt the murderous gaze of the man on himself. He was working out on his inner emotions without realizing how over his words went. When realized, it was already too late to back out.

"Hehe … Shufen, you would not have taken my joke seriously right? You already know how I am! Even Xiao Xue has said that I am just too dramatic. There is no way, one should take my words seriously. Even sometimes I think if I have not come to this business world then surely I would have been making my name shine in the entertainment industry. Haha …"

Qi Shuai punned but still, nothing felt right. With every passing second, he felt his soul leaving his body slowly and slowly. "Hey!!! I am your friend, not your enemy. Why are you looking at me like that? And don't you have confidence in yourself? With your charms and ways, there is no way any love rival can put a stand in front of you".

He tried his best to escape from his own words but little did he know that soon he will have to fall in the deep hole he has created, and it will be not once but several other times in the future too.

Passing a glare to his friend, Feng Shufen growled lowly, "You better pray that your own words do not backstab you or else you will really have to go and look for a place for yourself in the entertainment industry".

"Sure, sure! You can just rest assured. There is no way I would let a love rival creep into your such a beautiful and sweet love story. I will help you make your love story go hit the charts. Believe in your friend's capabilities" Qi Shuai said, boasting himself once again in front of his friend.

"Capabilities? Control your dramatics and that will be more than enough" he deadpanned and then turned to look at his Secretary, "What about the thing I have asked you to do yesterday?" he asked, getting back to his old cold, serious mode.

"President Feng, in the last five years Li Sheng has set a small business in the market. Though it looks flourishing on the outsides there are many shady secrets inside. The investment source is still unknown but from the inkling we received, 70% of the base investment has come from Ms Li Xue savings and the rest has been supported by the CEO Zheng Industries. And for the last 2 years, Ms Wen Sying is promoting their brand" Gao Fan informed but this was not what Feng Shufen was asking for.

Seeing the dissatisfaction on his President's face, Gao Fan continued. "They have not kept any contact with Ms Li Xue for the last 5 years. But for yesterday it was Ms Wen Sying, who has brought them to meet Madam at their place. They have asked the address from someone inside our team, saying that they are her family". Saying this he pulled a CD out from his pocket and extended it towards Feng Shufen.

"Here is the CD of the happenings from yesterday", he added. Qi Shuai, who was sitting in the front felt all quizzical. He asked in confusion, "Hey, did something happen yesterday? What are you guys talking about?"

"Wen Sying … Ayee, I have heard that name before. Isn't she the same fashion representative of our country in much international product line. And also she was there when I last went to pick Sister-in-law from that restaurant", Qi Shuai added, remembering the frail beauty he has last seen.

Feng Shufen did not say anything but the secretary nodded, giving an affirmation to his matching information. "Then Li Sheng … Is he the famous father of the city I have heard of? The one who has abandoned his own daughter when she needed her family the most" He stood up to walk towards Feng Shufen when he saw him sliding the CD inside the desktop. "Hey, let me see what has made you so enraged and serious against them".

Soon the screen played the video from the last day. Everything was very sharp and clear. As expected of the meticulous secretary. The vicious words increased one after the other, making Feng Shufen clench his fists in irritation. And then came the slap, making him remember the red-blue bruise on Li Xue's lips.

His knuckles went white and jaws got clenched tight, showing his fine sharp jawline. He did not fail to notice the slight stiffening of Li Xue on the mention of the name 'Yenay'. And also the fierceness that she used to fa?ade the pain she held inside her heart. That slight shiver of panic did not go unnoticed by him.

The video came to its end but the fury in the man's eyes did not dissipate. "Wow! Are they really her parents? I mean they are definitely not like what I have seen in my life. Especially her mother. Looking at her makes me feel like she holds some kind of grudge against sister-in-law. Oh Xiao Xue is really poor to have them as her parents"

Qi Shuai really felt bad looking at the heart-clenching drama on the screen. He knew her story on the surface, he had also thought of the pain she might have suffered and even felt bad for the words he had used for her last day at Feng Shufen's place but never thought that the reality would be much higher than his expectations.

"Gao Fan, this matter should not be ignored. You know what you have to do. Not too severe but neither any less. All three should pay the price of the damage. About Zheng Industries, I want a partnership with them. Work on it fast" Feng Shufen said, his eyes showing the hints of extreme darkness.

Qi Shuai almost shivered to look at him like that. "Hey! What are you planning? I am just getting an ominous feeling for them"

"And also I want you to search for all the information about that name Yenay. She must be someone really dear to Li Xue", Feng Shufen added, once again remembering the shiver and pain Li Xue had on the mention of that name.
