CEO Vengeful Wife-Chapter 164: President has been acting strange
"President, why are you not working in your office..." Mei Xiu asked, sounding utterly confused. Her President had been acting really strangely for the last few days.
Like she had picked up all the files from her office and rushed to the side office that had originally belonged to Mei Xi but was mostly unused.
"My office feels so stuffy. I can't focus." Jing Lihua gave whatever excuse came to her mind while rubbing her nose. "Am I inconveniencing you?"
"It's not that President..."
You are just acting very strange.
You blush from time to time for no reason
You get preoccupied a lot.
Someone as hard-working as you also mixed files recently...
Just what in the world has happened to you...
However Mei Xiu found it wise not to ask. For some reason, she felt like it was best if the President's strange state would be left unquestioned.
Mei Xu heard a shuffling from the President's side. She had received a notification on her personal phone. Distracted, she picked up her phone. Her eyes were still unfocused but just as they fell upon the screen, she gasped.
"President! What happened? Are you alright?" Mei Xiu immediately rushed to her side. "Why is your face burning like this? Are you having a fever? Should I call our company's doctor?" Mei Xiu was really worried about her President.
"It's nothing just... take this phone far away from me! Far, far away!" Her President treated her phone like it was Su Enterprise.
Mei Xiu: "..."
Just what in the hell is happening?
Her President who used to be calm as still water under the pressure of her greatest enemies, how could she suddenly succumb to such a state?
What great enemy she had encountered this time that had forced her to behave like that?
Who in the world is capable of forcing her revered President into a corner like this?
Mei Xiu thought the matter was rather suspicious. Grabbing President's phone, Mei Xiu rushed out. After getting out, she immediately dialed a number.
"Xiu Jie?"
"Bingwen, do you have any idea just what the hell happened to our President?" Mei Xiu directly asked.
From the other line, silence followed. She heard Heng Bingwen gulp silently.
"Bingwen? Hello Are you there...?"
"Yes..."
"Why are you also acting strange now?"
Because that very graphic and unholy image of our revered President being fiercely ravaged by that-that Devil hasn't been able to get out of my head...
Instead, it is torturing me...
Help
But, of course Heng Bingwen couldn't say that.
"I-Its nothing! Absolutely nothing Xiu Jie! You do know that the workload in the new office is tiring? That's why! That must be why I am sounding weird and all! Haha..." Heng Bingwen's fervent explanation only brought more suspicion upon him. So he quickly found an excuse. "Uh
... Yes, mother? Xiu Jie, my mother is calling me! I will talk to you later!"
"But did you say you were in office. Hello, Bingwen? What?" Mei Xiu pulled back the phone.
Her forehead had black lines over it.
Just what the hell was this fuss about?
...
"That pervert!" Jing Lihua cursed Li Zhiqiag until she was satisfied. She had hardly managed to get her mind out of that event.
He had to send her that provocative message!
Damn you Li Zhiqaing!
Because of you, I have made so many blunders in my work!
Jing Lihua sighed and leaned back into her chair.
Now, I can't even go back to my office. If I try to focus on work in there, I end up thinking about all that happened!
You devil, are you happy after ruing my favorite working place?!
What if I did that to you?!
What if I did that in your office to... Wait, No!
That would instead make you happy, wouldn't you?
Pervert!
Damn you, one-day I will get back at you!
She had been avoiding him like plaque for the last couple of days. Luckily, he had been busy dealing with Dry Creek Fields in the Southern districts. So he hadn't found enough time to torture her.
As for tonight, Jing Lihua had to leave with Su Liwei.
They had already booked for a flight.
To make the trip effective and dispel the rumors, the Su family had invited some reporters to take some shots and post them in tabloids of the couple leaving for the rumored recreational islands under Su family.
That would gather instant public attention.
Especially since the relationship between Jing Lihua and Su Liwei had been forcefully brought under public criticism prior.
So the effect would be even more pronounced.
After finishing reviewing the documents in the office, Jing Lihua relaxed. Getting out, she took back her phone from Mei Xiu. She had numerous messages from Li Zhiqiang.
The last one said.
"So you are leaving tonight?"
Jing Lihua could feel a trace of lingering sadness from that message. She sighed.
"It's not like I'm leaving for once and for all. I will be back in a week's time."
"Even a second apart from you feels like a millennium to me."
"Hah, Sweet talker!"
"Only for my little JingJing" His message followed a winking emotes.
Even such a small gesture from him would make her heart throb.
This man is surely using some satanic witchcraft. How can he influence me so profoundly?
Jing Lihua previously wanted to give him a visit before leaving. But knowing him, he would once again end up doing something like he did in her office.
Her office was already ruined for her.
S
he didn't want other places to be corrupted by him too.
Besides there was no guarantee she would be able to walk out unscathed once stepping into that Devil's den. He would tie her up for sure!
Before anything real happened between Jing Lihua and him, she wanted to end things with Su Liwei. After all, she was still entrapped into a legal marriage with another man.
Before leaving, Jing Lihua had a brief chat with Mei Xiu. Since Heng Bingwen had been avoiding her, she relayed the words she wanted for him through Mei Xiu.
At nightfall, she called for Wang Yi. Getting into the car, they immediately sped for the city's airport.
