When Xu Liqing walked inside the room, Xu Mey was standing looking out the windows. She didn"t turn right away. She pretended as if she didn"t know of Xu Liqing"s presence at all.
"President Xu is surely busy. I"ve been here for 3 hours." Xu Liqing spoke first.
"Well, not everyone has the time for leisure like you, Ms. Xu."
"What did you just say? Do I look like I have nothing to do?" Xu Liqing clenched her fists.
"But doesn"t Ms. Xu really have nothing to do?" Xu Mey said while still facing the gla.s.s wall. "If I"m not wrong, Ms. Xu lost her chance to become a top actress and now, she doesn"t even have her precious Jade Stones with her. Tsk... Tsk... It sure is a pity."
Xu Liqing"s body was trembling with anger and rage. "How dare you?" This was the sign of her losing her rationality.
Xu Mey smirked and thought, "It"s the right moment." She turned her body to face Xu Liqing and with her cold smirk asked, "How can I not dare, little sister?" Her voice was low as a whisper but Xu Liqing could feel the coldness and viciousness hidden behind them.
Xu Liqing stumbled as she saw Xu Mey standing before looking like a queen; domineering and fearless. "You!" Her eyes were wide as her throat felt constricted. "What... what are you doing here?"
"Oh come on, little sister, you came to apologize to me and yet you"re asking what I"m doing here? Have you lost your mind?" Xu Mey rubbed her head like a nice elder sister. "Oh wait! I almost forgot that you didn"t have a mind, to begin with."
Xu Liqing swatted her hand away while glaring menacingly at her. "My bad..." Xu Mey raised her hands in defense. "Let"s take a seat, shall we?"
Xu Mey sat down on the soft fabric sofa making herself comfortable. Xu Liqing was reeling with fury. She took a seat to calm herself. "You"re an imposter. You can"t be President Xu... You can never be smart enough to build this empire."
Xu Mey raised her single brow. "And why is that?"
Xu Liqing chuckled menacingly. "You think I"ll just tell you? I won"t... I don"t know how you managed to get here but I know you"re not President Xu. You can"t be. There is no way." Xu Liqing was shouting at this point. Xu Mey had to rub her ear.
"Can"t you let go of this habit of shouting?" Xu Liqing held a gla.s.s of water in her hand to take a sip when Xu Mey"s words made her tighten her grip on the gla.s.s. "Tsk... Poor sister... You don"t know how I ruined your acting career then I made you go to Police station on the live tv broadcast. I made you go bankrupt. And still, you couldn"t think that only one person has that kind of grudge against you; ME."
Xu Liqing"s shoulders were shaking and she couldn"t hold it in and threw the water at Xu Mey"s face. "How childish of you, little sister." Xu Mey lamented while shaking her head.
That comment broke all of Xu Liqing"s restraints. She hated being called childish the most. And Xu Mey was exploiting this exact fact.
Xu Liqing raised up from her seat, broke the gla.s.s in her hand by hitting it against the edge of the table and walked towards Xu Mey and raised her hand which held a gla.s.s shard intending to hurt her.
But...
The sudden camera flashes and clicking sounds made her halt her movements. She was horrified when she tilted her head to see a horde of reporters. She looked back at Xu Mey"s blanched look and snickered. "You played me sl*t? I said no reporters."
Xu Mey turned her head to avoid the camera"s and whispered with a smirk, "I never agreed on that request. My company, my rules."
"Ugh!!!" Xu Liqing launched towards Xu Mey but Xu Mey"s secretary came between them. Xu Liqing was acting hysterically at this point. She didn"t bother seeing that it was not Xu Mey or that there were reporters in the room. She threw the gla.s.s shard and pulled the poor secretary"s hair also, clawed at her face. The security people had to come and drag Xu Liqing away.
Xu Liqing was kicking and punching in the air. "Ms. Xu you"re here to apologize to President Xu but you instead launched an attack at her. What do you have to say about that?" A reporter asked.
"Apologize?" Xu Liqing laughed. "Apologize to her?" She pointed at Xu Mey who was pretending to be cowering back in her seat. "I"ll never ever apologize to that wh*re." She roared.
The security guards made the reporters stop asking questions and started dragging Xu Liqing away. When she was being dragged, she looked at Xu Mey who wiggled her brows and winked at her with one side of her lip curled upward in a mocking way.
"President Xu, can we ask you about the details?" The reporters tried to turn to Xu Mey.
"Please, everyone. President Xu just got a scare. You all should leave for now. Vintage will release a statement soon." Qin Hao was handling the situation carefully.
When all the reporters left, Qin Hao locked the door and pa.s.sed a towel to Xu Mey. She took the towel and asked him to look after her secretary who got her hair pulled. Xu Mey was wiping her face when Ye Jun came out of the place he was hiding.
"Sis, what did you do just now?"
Xu Mey smiled and replied, "I just made the Dunce Princess turn into a Hysterical one."
"Are you satisfied with this much?" He was worried that if she had really gotten hurt then it would have been another chaos for him from his dear brother.
"Of course not." She headed to the door and said, "Are you coming?" Ye Jun didn"t ask where they were going, he just followed her.
The place Xu Mey brought Ye Jun was somewhere inside the building and it was dark in that area with flickering lights. When she opened a door and entered inside, he could hear Xu Liqing"s m.u.f.fled shouts.
Ye Jun looked at Xu Mey as he understood that she didn"t send Xu Liqing out of the company. He saw Xu Liqing held against a pillar with a piece of cloth in her mouth.
"h.e.l.lo, dear little sister!" Even Ye Jun felt the chills emitting from her words as he s.h.i.+vered instinctively. Xu Liqing glared at Xu Mey with menace. "Tsk..." She clicked her tongue. "Poor you..."
When Xu Mey raised her head again, her entire persona took another turn. There was coldness, att.i.tude, and indifference on her face. She raised her hand and delivered a crisp slap to Xu Liqing"s face saying, "This is to let you know that today, we have only reached the interval of the story. The ending is still pending."
Then she raised her hand again and gave another slap to Xu Liqing. "This is for having schemes about my Ah Jie."
She was about to turn but stopped and gave another slap on Xu Liqing"s already stinging and swollen cheek. "This is because it felt good." She smiled innocently and waved her hand. Her men removed the cloth from her mouth while Xu Mey turned around to leave.
"Haha..." Xu Mey heard Xu Liqing"s laugh but didn"t turn to look. "You think that Ye Jie likes you? You"re delusional. I"ve already sent him the video. The proof of your biggest stain in life."
Xu Mey sighed and said, "Since Ah Jie is still standing beside me, it means that he doesn"t care about your so-called proof and my so-called crimes."
