Chapter 163 - Make It Up To You

CHAPTER 163

"She just knows how to act, jelly bi..."

"Yin Lifen, watch your words, young lady," Li Jing cautioned her.

She blew her hair in frustration at her friend’s warning. "What! She deserves it and more. Anyways, let’s get you out of here first and I would just repay her in her own coin."

"Do not do anything stupid. It looks like she has a strong backing for her to go against Ye Cheng."

"Exactly why I want to deal with her."

"Sometimes I wonder how your brain works." Li Jing shook her head at her friend and sat up on the bed.

She could not say that Bai Qing Mei did not deserve whatever retribution that was coming her way, no. That was not the case. She deserved it and more but what Li Jing was more concerned with was Yin Lifen’s safety.

"Come on."

***

As soon as they left the hospital, Yin Lifen took Li Jing home and took care of her. Ye Cheng had instructed her not to let the latter leave under any circumstance and so she did.

Meanwhile, the Hong Haoran who had drugged her was still being held custody by Ye Cheng’s men till they got the truth out of him.

Ye Cheng was still busy with finalizing all the things needed for the bidding proposal and Li Jing’s encounter further made him speed things up.

He needed to win this and put the Zhang company in the shadows. That and Li Jing’s marketing slide proposal was sure to leave them in the dust.

All these he spent his time fixing.

It was going to be the bomb for Dream Star Corporation and that would also shut his father up for good.

Their meeting with Mr Kang was slated for this Friday and now that Li Jing wasn’t too strong, he decided to finish up everything for her before the next day.

While he was busy reviewing files, he received a call from Yi Wang Lei.

"Hello, how far with the interrogation?"

"He has finally talked."

"Who sent him?"

"Li Xiu."

"What? Are you sure about it? It isn’t Bai Qing Mei?"

"No. I am certain. He said he was asked to get her trust and drug her then sleep with her."

"Why that imbecile..." Hearing the rubbish things that Li Jing’s sister sent someone to do only made him more than angry at her wickedness and he clenched his fists so tight.

"Ye Cheng, what should we do with him?"

"Give him a good punishment that would prevent him from accepting such jobs ever again."

"Understood. Is everything going smoothly at the company? Do you need my hel[p with anything?"

"Umm, yes. I need you to check everything relating to that guy and find out if there is anything else we are missing out on."

"I’ll be there in thirty minutes then."

"Thanks, Wang Lei."

"No problem."

Ye Cheng dropped his phone and let out an exasperated sigh. It turned out that Bai Qing Mei was not responsible for the problem caused this time, nevertheless, she played a very important role in the whole thing and needed to still be sent a nice warning.

As for Li Xiu, Ye Cheng wondered if he should let Li Jing know about it first or not. Speaking of Li Jing, that was when he recalled he had not yet called her or the hospital to see if she had been discharged.

He picked back his phone and placed a call through to her.

Ring! Ring!

After the third ring, the call was answered. "Hey."

"Good morning." Her soft voice greeted from the other end of the phone. He did not know that not hearing her voice for some time and suddenly hearing it now, could make his heart, beat rapidly like that.

He sucked in a lung full of breath before responding to her greeting, trying his best to steady his beating heart.

"Good morning. How are you feeling now?" Hos deep baritone voice did not really help her case as it sent shivers down her spine rather than soothe her.

"Much better thank you." She paused and took in a deep breath. She was preparing herself mentally for his scolding but even that did not really matter now, all that mattered was for her to apologize to him.

"I am sorry for causing you so much trouble, Ye Cheng."

"It is okay. I am glad that you are alright."

"Hmm, thanks for also calling Yin Lifen for me."

"It was nothing. I apologize for not accompany you till you woke up. There was an emergency I needed to take care of in the office, first."

"Oh, is it anything serious?" she quickly asked him, feeling she must have caused him some extra troubles.

"Nothing to worry yourself with. I have handled it all and now I am reviewing the slides one last time before our meeting with Mr Kang tomorrow."

"Oh, I am sorry. I have ended up passing my work to you. I would make it up to you if you do not mind."

Ye Cheng smiled to himself as he heard her promise. "Really?" The way he said it made Li Jing think she must have just fallen into the devil’s net.

She could tell the mischief in his voice and knew nothing good would come out of it but then again, she was the one offering, she did not say she would grant him any favours.

"So you owe me a favour, huh?"

"Umm, I do not owe you a favour. I only said I would make it up to you."

"But what if I do not like what you want to do?"

"Hey, there is no way you can say that. You would definitely love what I promised."

"And if I don’t?"

Li Jing paused for a moment to think. If he did not like what she was offering, then that would be troublesome.

She face-palmed herself for him even thinking of saying those words to him. She would have just surprised him instead.

"Then I would owe you a favour." Ye Cheng’s smile broadened. He was beginning to like where this was going to.

"But."
