Hiltop Hotel.As soon as Liang entered the hotel, the manager quickly rushed towards him and politely greeted him. "Mr Yang, what a pleasant surprise, I wasn"t expecting you to visit us today. Do you have an appointment? Let me go and check if things are ready or not."
Cutting him off, Liang shook his head and said, "I am not here for an appointment."
"Oh then does Mr Yang want anything?" The manager asked.
"Hmm, help me find the details of a reservation under Mo Zixin"s name." Liang instructed.
" Yes, Mr Mo has a reservation here, in fact, someone is already attending the meeting." The manager explained.
"Which room number?" Liang asked.
…..
Inside the VIP room.
"Apart from the fact that we have been into this business a long time time, Mr Pete is well aware of Mo corporation"s reputation and name. So you can figure out what profit and exposure this deal will bring to your company." Kathy calmly explained resisting the strong urge of punching his face which was brewing in her heart. The man has been giving her l.u.s.ty vibes as soon as she entered the room.
Mr Pete chuckled and nodded his head. "Of course, if someone like you is a part of the deal then I will obviously be at an advantage."
Kathy frowned and asked, "Excuse me?"
"Oh I mean, if someone as capable as you is a part of this deal then my company will surely advance." Giving her a creepy smile, Mr Pete started pouring wine for both of them. Pa.s.sing a gla.s.s to Kathy, Mr Pete said, "Let"s toast."
"Ah no I am sorry, I don"t drink when I am working." Kathy politely rejected his offer. She was in a hurry to seal the deal and rush out of the room. Breathing in the same room as him was making her go crazy.
"What are you saying Ms Williams? This is just wine, it isn"t like we will do something after drinking only a gla.s.s." Mr Pete winked at her before shoving the gla.s.s towards her.
"No, I am sorry but I don"t drink when I am working." Keeping the gla.s.s aside, Kathy was about to explain the other clause when the latter suddenly brushed his thumb on the back of her hand.
Retrieving her hand back, Kathy pursed her lips. "What are you trying to do?"
"Just trying to feel your soft skin." Mr Pete shamelessly said.
Kathy narrowed her eyes and was about to action when someone entered the room.
"Uh Huh, my skin is super soft too, does Mr Pete want to feel that too?" Liang asked. He was about to enter the room when Mr Pete started urging Kathy to drink with him. He then decided to wait for a while and see how Kathy responded to him. When he witnessed Kathy"s reluctance towards Mr Pete"s shameless actions, Liang decided to take some action.
Mr Pete widened his eyes in shock and jolted up. "M-Mr Yang."
Ignoring him, Liang turned towards Kathy and asked, "Are you Zixin"s friend?"
When Kathy nodded her head, Liang said, "Pack everything up, you are leaving with me."
Not liking his bossy att.i.tude, Kathy slightly frowned but she still reluctantly started packing everything up.
"But we aren"t done yet and-"
Cutting him off, Liang raised his eyebrows. "Oh, you aren"t done yet? Well, since you wanted to touch her "SOFT" skin, I thought you were already done."
"Mr Yang I-" stopping midway, Mr Pete lowered his head when Liang glared at him. Seeing that Kathy was alone, he thought he could take a little advantage of her but who would"ve thought that Liang would barge in all of a sudden and ruin everything.
Taking the briefcase from Kathy"s hand, Liang extended his hand towards Mr Pete for a shake. "I hope you get the deal."
Mr Pete gulped in nervousness and quickly accepted the shake but he winced in pain when Liang exerted only 30% of his strength to smash and squeeze his hand.
When he saw Mr Pete"s scrunched and pale face, Liang chuckled. "Make sure that next time when you decide to feel someone"s "SOFT" skin behind closed doors, you"ve the stamina and strength to do so. Such a weakling and yet you have the b.a.l.l.s to hara.s.s a woman."
Turning towards Kathy, Liang raised his eyebrows. "Now do you need a special invitation to slap him or at least smack his head?"
Kathy quickly stepped forward and gave Mr Pete a good strong slap.
After Kathy was done, Liang let go of his hand and took out his handkerchief from his pocket.
After wiping his hands, Liang asked Kathy to do the same. He then tossed the handkerchief on the table and guided Kathy out of the room.
Before leaving, Liang turned towards Mr Pete and smirked, "Don"t worry, the soft skin touching scene and the slapping scene remains inside this room."
After they left, Mr Pete clenched his hands into a fist and gritted his teeth.
…..
Outside.
"Did you drive here?" Liang asked.
"No, I took a cab." Kathy said.
"Where are you planning to go?" Liang asked.
"I wanted to see Zixin and discuss a few things about the deal but now the deal is over so I guess I"ll just go to the office and figure out something." Kathy explained.
Pausing for a while, Liang said, "Zixin would never want to deal with someone who doesn"t have any respect for women. He would"ve done the exact same thing that I did."
"Are you one of Zixin"s childhood friends?" Kathy asked.
"My name is Yang Liang."
Kathy nodded her head and said, "I know your name, you people are pretty famous and always manage to secure a spot for yourself in the business magazine."
Liang chuckled and asked, "You read those stupid business magazines?"
Kathy nodded her head and answered, "Yeah, it"s fun."
"They write whatever they want to in those magazines. It"s 30% reality and 70% unrealistic facts." Liang explained.
"Well, they sound real."
Liang nodded his head and said, "Come, I"ll drop you to the hospital."
