Rong Xiang noticed the slender woman in his boss" arms carefully. She seems a young woman not more than 24-year-old. She has a long black hair flowing till her waist and as Feng Jianyu brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, he noticed her side profile, definitely a refined and cla.s.sically beautiful face.
But the very next moment Rong Xiang"s soul flew away from his body as he heard her…
Xiu Mei didn"t bother to turn back and spare a look to Rong Xiang, she raised her face, her eyes unfathomable, voice cold enough to send s.h.i.+vers down one"s spine, "Remember… You didn"t saw anything here. This should not be leaked out at any cost… I REPEAT…AT ANY COST. And if this news goes out, even by mistake… I won"t be polite."
Rong Xiang gulped, "Y-Yes mam"
"Good… I"m not the right person with whom you should mess with." She looked into the eyes of Feng Jianyu as if insinuating something, and gave a smile. "You can go now…"
Feng Jianyu was stunned looking at the cute woman in his arms who was nothing like cute a moment ago. Like a flip of a switch, she changed from a chipmunk to a tigress, a wounded tigress, which is scarier than anyone.
He had never imagined that Xiu Mei have this intimidating and scary side too. Lots of questions popped up in his mind, leading his curiosity to discover more about her…
"What happen? Why are you looking at me like this?" She asked with raised brows.
"Don"t you know?"
Xiu Mei smiled dryly and Feng Jianyu pulled her onto the couch to make her sit before talking… She took a deep breath…
"This fact is not hidden from you that I"ve trust issues… And I"m sorry, but I can"t help it. I don"t like the presence of strangers around me and neither I want them to discover anything related to me. It"s better if everyone maintains a distance from me." She said.
"Is this because of me?" Trapping her in the depth of his eyes, Jianyu wanted to hear the truth. Xiu Mei lowered her head and didn"t reply for a long time. She looked outside towards the balcony and began to walk there and Jianyu did the same. He knows she will definitely answer him, just a little patience…
Gripping the steel railing she looked ahead blankly and answered, "I know it was not you that night… but then obviously he impersonated you to cheat on me. Throughout these years I was under the impression that the man on whom I trusted blindly, allowed stepping into my life, in the end he used me like a tissue paper and threw me when he was done with me. Since then I"m wary of trusting people, never know what mask they are wearing. I won"t allow anyone to treat me like a product…. Not anymore. I can bear to live lonely but I can"t bear another betrayal…"
He walked to her and pulls her into his arms. Pus.h.i.+ng her head into the crook of his shoulder he caressed her back gently before saying, "I understood… Relax!!" After coaxing her for some time he asked, "Mei, do you trust me now?" He was anxiously for her answer but she didn"t take a second before nodding her head, "Yes… I trust you and I know you"ll never harm me" She recalled the conversation of three brothers that Orange showed her.
"I trust not only you but Dr. w.a.n.g and Feng Junjie as well" Hearing this Jianyu released the breath that he was holding, "Thank you… thank you so much… You just give me another lease of life"
"Mei, do you want to know the truth of Infinity Software?" He asked her softly, a gentle look in his eyes.
Xiu Mei pulls herself from his embrace with a jerk to stare at him, with her shocked eyes she stuttered while asking, "Feng Jianyu… H-How do you know about Infinity Software? I didn"t disclose it yet that it is....."
"That Infinity Software is the same product you mentioned to me seven years back and made a promise to launch it with my company. And all this while this misunderstanding grew bigger and bigger because the software was owned by the Feng Corporation, making you believe that I used it for my personal gain. Right?" He wouldn"t let her escape his sharp gaze as he look deeply in her eyes.
Xiu Mei nodded her head, "I don"t want to say anything…." She bent her head down and rested her forehead against his shoulder, not having the strength to talk with him anymore. Feng Jianyu took a deep breath, "I intend to talk to you about it before. But was scared you will hold yourself responsible for the decisions you"ve made."
