Yao Zizhou’s did not look happy about this either, but there was nothing he could do. So many things had happened recently—he had to make this decision. If he had not woken up that day, he might never have. Yao Ziyang had a debt of sin to pay, and it was time to collect the interest.
Yao Zizhou said emotionlessly, “If we don’t do this, how would they show their true colors? Rather than letting them continue to be snakes in the grass, it’s better to have things out in the open.”
Although Yao Zizhou had humiliated Yao Ziyang, he was not happy at all. In the past, Yao Zizhou trusted Yao Ziyang the most, and although he knew that Yao Ziyang looked obedient on the surface, he was actually a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He never thought that Yao Ziyang would one day use such underhanded means to deal with him, which made him furious.
If his guess was right, Yao Ziyang was also the one who caused Yao Zizhou to go blind and have his legs crippled, throwing him into a life of darkness. Yao Zizhou naively thought that the war between the two would end up on the negotiating table, but now it seemed that Yao Ziyang was not worthy to be his opponent, he was just a piece of trash.
…
He Xiang, the secretary of the Yao Corporation, came with several people from the sales department and reported to Yao Zizhou in detail about everything that had happened in the company during his time away. It was not until evening when everyone finally came out of Yao Zizhou’s study.
Just as they emerged from the room, a soft voice said to them,”Dinner’s ready. It’s getting late, why don’t you all stay for dinner.”
Everyone raised their heads and realized it was Ming Liuyi. He Xiang was shocked. This was not the first time he saw her, but she looked completely different from before. In his memory, Ming Liuyi always wore inappropriate makeup, exaggerated dresses, and jewelry that made her look like she was nouveau riche. But tonight, Ming Liuyi wore a simple white dress, which perfectly complemented her figure.
Her bare face was particularly astonishing, and her skin was smooth and shiny. She was a completely different person compared to the Ming Liuyi of the past. If he had known better, He Xiang would have thought that the president had gotten a new wife. He looked at Ming Liuyi and almost did not dare to address her. It was impossible for a person to change their style in just a few months, but he still asked tentatively, “Madam?”
Ming Liuyi smiled and nodded. He Xiang was a little surprised. It was the first time for the others to see Ming Liuyi. They did not expect the madam to be so beautiful. They had heard talk of her before, but now that they saw her in person, they were all very surprised. Rumors really could not be trusted.
One of them looked at Ming Liuyi and could not help but say,”Madam, you’re too beautiful.”
Ming Liuyi graciously thanked him. He Xiang did not dare to rashly agree to the dinner invitation. The president had not said anything yet, and only when the president spoke would they dare to stay. Otherwise, it would be considered treasonous. Yao Zizhou also knew that He Xiang was waiting for his permission, and it had been a hard day, so he said mildly, “You may stay.”
Hearing this, He Xiang nodded his head. Although he had followed Yao Zizhou for many years, there were some rules that could never be broken. If anyone broke these rules, not only would they lose their job, they might even lose their lives at any time.
When everyone heard that they could stay, they were all very happy and immediately said in unison,”Thank you, President. Thank you, Madam.”
At the dinner table, although He Xiang and the others were there, Ming Liuyi sat beside Yao Zizhou very naturally and put food on his plate from time to time. He Xiang was even more surprised when he saw this scene. He knew that the president and the madam did not get along so well before, and the president used to not eat the food that the madam put on his plate. Why did everything change after the president woke up?
Not only did he not push away the bowl and chopsticks, he even looked like he was enjoying it. He Xiang felt that things were not that simple.
‘I shouldn’t stay too long. It would be best to finish my meal quickly and leave as soon as possible.’
Thinking of this, he started to chew faster. The rest of the team were quite smart and realized his intentions when they saw him eating quickly.
They also promptly understood that, although the madam and the president wanted them to stay for dinner, there might be some domestic problems here, so they should not stay too long. Everyone began to speed up, eating as quickly as possible and leaving just as fast to avoid getting caught in the fire.
Yao Zizhou suddenly spoke to He Xiang as he ate the food Ming Liuyi picked for him.
“Mr. He, my eyes are not good. My wife has been working very hard recently. Please get her a bowl of soup in my stead.”
