Chapter 265 - Shenzhen - Meeting Again
Initially, Xiu Mei"s plan was to condense everything in one day. But now, she has her future baby to consider so she scheduled everything in two days instead.
She immediarely started firing the involved employees who embezzled the money and warned them herself, and pa.s.sed them along to the legal representative from the company that also came with her. Embezzlement of funds is a big thing that"s why she was personally handling it instead of pa.s.sing it to just the legal department.
Lee In kept her presence hidden the entire time, so Xiu Mei was able to comfortably do her thing.
She was taking a break and just finished her lunch in a famous five star restaurant when she saw Mr. Ying"s figure at the corner of her eye.
Her action of wiping her mouth pa.s.sed as she glanced briefly on her left before quickly lowering her slightly and s.h.i.+fted her face to the right.
Thankfully she was sitting by the window so there"s hope that she won"t be seen by Ying Yue"s father and the other female politician she"d seen on television before.
Compared to Mrs.Ying who scolded her in public, she was more intimidated with Mr.Ying even when Ying Yue was still alive. He was a very strict man, and just remembering how coldly he looked at her back in that funeral years ago, the more she didn"t want to get noticed by him at all.
She quickly paid, picked up her bag and was already by the door when she suddenly felt the urge to look back. And before she could stop herself from doing so, she already did.
Her eyes widened.
Oh my G.o.d.
Oh my G.o.d.
Oh my G.o.d.
What was that? Whata the heck did she witness? What the...
Oh my G.o.d.
Mr. Ying was having an affair.
Oh my G.o.d.
He was having an affair with that female politician. OhmyfudgingG.o.d. Mrs.Ying would tear them apart.
Xiu Mei wasn"t usually shocked with such things since she witnessed a lot of affairs in their circle before. But she couldn"t help but still be shocked at this one since she was very familiar with Mrs.Ying"s personality.
She already experienced how she got angry and shamed her back when she b.u.mped onto each other a couple of times, and she was pretty sure that Mrs. Ying would never tolerate her husband cheating on her. She was too fierce of a woman to swallow this kind of shame.
Fudge.
Will she one day hear a murder case from the Ying household? To think that they were openly revealing their affair in this kind of place, are they both not scared?
My G.o.d. Don"t they not want their face anymore?
Of course, Xiu Mei didn"t stay at that place any longer. She hastily strode to the garage with hurried footsteps when Lee In abruptly appeared in front her when she was about to open the car door.
"Don"t move." Lee In suddenly said. Xiu Mei was taken aback and she froze thinking that she was talking to her but as soon as she raised her head and saw where Lee In was actually looking at, she gasped for the second time that day.
Lee In firmly hid the female master behind her while pointing the gun at the man a few meters away in front of them.
Before them stood a familiar man, and a cute looking Old English Sheepdog sat by his feet with its tongue hanging from his mouth. The man stood with his back straight, his one hand on his pocket while the other was relaxedly holding the dog"s leash.
The man was Albert Chen. And he brazenly appeared in front of Xiu Mei, along with his dog and didn"t look afraid at all from Lee In"s gun that was pointing straight at him.
"You..." Xiu Mei was at a loss as she went completely speechless with the current development. She wasn"t expecting to see Albert, more so, to meet him this soon.
She was actually expecting to see him already apprehended by her husband and her brothers.
She shook her head.
She thought he was hiding from them. Look, he resigned the moment he realized his cover was going to be discovered. And the resignation petter he sent was just something he did to provoke them. But now he was suddenly appearing in front of her, looking so laid-back as if he wasn"t doing anything illegal?
"h.e.l.lo, Ms. Xiu." Albert greeted her in such a laidback tone that she almost subconsciously replied but Lee In was quick to cut him off before she could open her mouth.
"Stay away." Lee In said firmly. "Or the bullet in this gun will find its way on your head." She said in a threatening tone.
The dog suddenly stood up and turned fierce as he looked at Lee In. He was growling under his breath and baring his teeth, even lowering his body slightly as if he was preparing to pounce on her right away.
Albert tugged on his leash that made the dog look at him again, then glanced at Lee In before looking at his owner. He w.h.i.n.ed before returning to his previous sitting position like a good little boy.
"I heard that you were coming, so I wanted to drop by and say hi." Albert said while beaming.
Xiu Mei frowned when she heard his words. What the h.e.l.l? He heard that she was coming? Wait, are their floor still bugged? Only her a.s.sistant and Lu Shao knew that she was coming to Shenzhen. Even the legal representative didn"t know until they b.u.mped into the airport ah.
But now he was saying that he already knew beforehand the she was coming? Was her schedule somehow leaked and sent to him?
Both the women"s guards were up while Xiu Mei"s other bodyguards sent by her brother surrounded Albert. He still looked unbothered by the situation because he even crouched to pat his dog"s head and cooed him with words.
Xiu Mei who stood closely behind Lee In whispered.
"Why don"t you catch him?" She curiously asked.
Lee In didn"t look away at the person in front while answering the Madame"s questions.
"Mr. Lu warned us not to act rashly if we ever meet him. He said that this man wasn"t actually simple and he was right."
Xiu Mei did not understand.
"It looks like he"s alone. But he"s not."
"How do you say so?" Xiu Mei glanced in front again and saw that he was really alone. What was she talking about ah?
"I can sense another person looking at us from somewhere. I think it"s coming from one from inside the cars."
What?!
Xiu Mei twisted her neck and looked at all her sides. They were all the parking lot, and there"s a loooot of cars. So if Lee In was telling the truth the she sensed someone, fudge! They won"t be able to find which car that person is on when they are in a place called parking lot that is packed with various kinds of vehicle.
Xiu Mei was very anxious. Was she gonna get kidnapped again?
She stopped herself from touching her stomach else Albert might notice her actions so she tried to act as normal as possible.
"What are you truly doing here?" She overcame her fear and courageously spoke out loud. She narrowed her eyes at him while glaring.
Albert eyebrow raised as he let out a chuckle while mumbling "Feisty".
"I just wanted to ask you if you liked my gifts. Didn"t I mention in the letter that I wanted to see your reaction personally? So let me hear it."
"...."
Fudge. Does he have a loose screw in the head?
He brazenly walked in front of them just so he could see her reaction for all the mess he did?!
Xiu Mei kept her fierce expression on her face as she looked sharply at him.
"I doubt you really came for a stupid reason such as that. What are you truly aiming for, Mr. Albert Chen?" She retorted while crossing her arms in front of her. Albert showed on "oh"-ed expression before smirking.
"Don"t Ms.Xiu clearly know the answer? I told you years ago didn"t I? The night I chose you as my chess piece, I told you my intentions in doing all of this things." Albert suddenly stopped and suddenly clapped as if he remembered something.
"Ah! I forgot. Right, I erased your memory of me of that night. Sorry, my mistake. I completely forgot about that." He said he was apologizing bur somehow it felt like he was being sarcastic instead.
"...."
