CHAPTER 537
Since it was just one meeting she has for today, Li Fengjin had to agree with it. He did not want more pressure of her company's workload on her.
Li Fengjin sighed before leading her to the car. "When you get back home, my promise still stands."
"What promise?" Bai Renxiang blinked in confusion.
"To help your body adjust to the weather," he remimded her and arched his brows.
Her face instantly heated up.
"But I will be tired when I get back," she tried to plead.
"Don't worry. I will go easy on you."
Bai Renxiang: "..."
Seeing her being utterly defeated into silence, Li Fengjin smirked before giving her a kiss on her lips and then her forehead.
"Get in," he voiced out.
Bai Renxiang did not even need him to tell her because she felt embarrassed. He just kissed her with his men and her assistant around. Li Fengjin chuckled lightly before helping her shut the door.
"Drive carefully. You guys keep her safe. The rest of you would go with me," He dished out orders like the boss he is and swiftly actions were carried out.
"Yes, boss," the men agreed.
Li Fengjin waited with the remaining fee of his men as they watch the car Bai Renxiang and her assistant was in drive away with two other cars following closely behind it.
It was until he could not see their traces that he made a move. He walked straight to the black Maybach and got into it.

~Jiang Corporation, City X Branch~
Bai Renxiang was impressed by the building structure of the company when the car drove into the compound. It was no less than the headquarters back at City S.
Stepping down, Bai Renxiang arranged her clothes. She was dressed in a blue denim jeans and a yellow chiffon collar shirt that had just three buttons at the top. She had a blue coat over and a nude colour open-toe heels to match.
She had remove the beanie she wore and had her hair tied up in a slightly neat bun with few strands beside her face. Though it was not something she would choose to wear to work, it could still be considered as a professional attire.
It did not hide her strong leader aura but it also did not fail to bring out her charms as a woman. Xia Xinyi was awed. She would never be able to get over how her boss could pull a great look in any outfit she wore.
*snap snap*
"Assistant Xia, you are drooling," Bai Renxiang said after a few snaps of her fingers in front of the woman's face.
"What?"
Xia Xinyi's eyes instantly grew wide as she turned her head to the window of the car. She started wiping the sides of her lips until she heard a faint chuckle from her boss.
"Boss, you are teasing me again?" She complained with a cute pout.
"I could not help it. We are almost late for an important meeting and you were spacing out like a kid seeing candy," Bai Renxiang managed to squeeze out those words amidst her laughter.
"I was just happy you are my boss. You look beautiful in anything you wear," Xia Xinyi commented like a fangirl.
Bai Renxiang shook her head at her assistant's antics. She sighed and straightened herself. She acknowledged Xia Xinyi's kind words and took steps toward the entrance of the company.
"Let's go quickly. I want to get this meeting over with," she said.
"Yes, boss," Xia Xinyi saluted before dashing toward the entrance to walk closely behind her boss.
As soon as they stepped into the building, they snagged the attention of everyone present on the first floor. Or rather, everyone had their eyes on her, their boss.
It was their first time seeing her in reality and not through pictures on the net or news on television. So it was only natural for them to stare. Plus they did not know she would be coming there today.
It was known that she was on a honeymoon vacation. They had thoughts that she would resume on the first work day of a fresh week. So seeing her came as a surprise for them.
Bai Renxiang walked without a falter in her steps. She had her head held high and greeted those who did to her and nodded to those who bowed politely.
That was how it went till she and Xia Xinyi got into the elevator and the doors slid close.
"Did you see that? That woman is the boss."
"I saw her too. Wow! She is even more gorgeous in person than in TV or the net."
"I love that press conference she did. I am proud to have a woman like her as my boss."
"It's no wonder Mr Li fell for her. She has the aura and the charms."
"I bet anyan would fall for her. She is my type of dream woman
"Don't dream too far, bro. She is someon else's woman."
"I wonder why she is here."
"I think it is for the meeting with TY Corps. Their CEO is here anyway."
"Aigo! Working immediately after her honeymoon. I love her even more now."
Unbeknownst of Bai Renxiang, an uproar about her was going in on the first floor. And soon, the news of her arrival reached the other floors.
The elevator dinged open, on the top floor of the building. Stepping out they were both greeted by the branch manager and coordinator and three other employees.
"Welcome, CEO Mrs Li. How was your vacation?" A man that seems to be in his late forties greeted with a genuine smile.
"Thank you. The trip was fine," Bai Renxiang answered with a straight face.
She was yet to complete her research on the people here. So it was best or safer to keep her guard up and be uptight till then. Wolves can be hidden in sheep's clothing too.
"Well, that is great. I am Sun Liwei the branch manager here," the man introduced himself. "These are–"

The branch manager's smile dropped into an apologetic face. He quickly stopped aside sigh the other following his move.
"I apologise for my unruly behaviour. Don't allow us to be in your way."
"Hmm. Xia Xinyi, please lead the way," Bai Renxiang said.
"Right on it. Excuse us now," Xia Xinyi nodded at the branch manager. "This way, boss."
Without another word, they walked to the location where their guest awaits. They were already ten minutes late for the meeting. Exchanging pleasantries and introductions could wait for later.
Xia Xinyi led them into the waiting area. There, they were greeted by the back of man in a navy blue coat. The air around him was not too tensed but one could tell that he is a boss.
Beside him was another man in black. He carried the air of an assistant. So it was decided without a word. That was TY Corps' CEO and his assistant.
"I am sorry my inpunctuality. Do pardon me, gentlemen," Bai Renxiang voiced out as she walked further into the waiting area.
The twoen look toward the source of the voice and heels clicking against the black tiled floor. Seeing another woman with the other in glasses, they assumed she must be whole they were waiting for.
Standung up and adjust his navy suit and coat, the CEO spoke. "Ten minutes late is not that bad for one who is just coming from the airport. Besides, your secretary did well in hosting us. I must praise he is ability."
It was then Bai Renxiang noticed that Jinhai was also in the waiting area. She nodded at him before reverting her gaze to the tall man and his assistant.
"Well, I must thank him and your patience."
Dark red hair almost in the shade of brown, focussed eyes, tell nose bridge, thin pink lips and sharp jawline. The CEO could be put on a scale of eight out of ten for handsomeness.
His assistant? Hmm, a bit above average. Very serious as if he has a facial paralysis. Bai Renxiang wondered is all assistants are made to be like that.
But Yi Changying and Xia Xinyi are different.
"I am Tang Moyong, CEO of TY Corps and this is my assistant, Houyi. It is a pleasure to finally meet the gorgeous CEO of Jiang Corporation," he said with his hand outstretched for a shake.
"You flatter me. But I could say the same. It's CEO Bai," she accepted his hand and they shook.
"Let's get down to business now, shall we?"
"We shall. I have waited enough anyway," CEO Tang nodded and gave a side smile.
