Chapter 33 - MY DECISION IS FINAL

"I don't think I will get married anytime soon"Lie Ruge replied.After replying back she leaned her back to the seat and pretended as though as she has fallen asleep.She knew that if she were to stay wide awake Xiao Bai will keep on nagging and making fun of her.She was so tired from all the sleepless nights.She fell asleep without even realizing it.

Time flew by so quickly,it has now being three months since Xiao Bai has travelled for her shoots.Some of the shoots was postponed so Xiao Bai had to stay there longer than she has expected.Lie Ruge was still a workaholic.She even work overtime and starve herself..Due to her incessant hard work,Empire Corporation has been dominating the stock market.Xu Feng has been deprived of his beauty sleep countless times.He has been grumbling but Lie Ruge gave no attention to all his gloomy attitude.Butler Zhu has been trying to get in touch with Lie Ruge through both her personal and office contacts but it was either Xu Feng picked the phone or her phone was switched off.

Butler Zhu was in a dilemma.Old Master Lie has told him to get his daughter to answer the call no matter what.Even though he had to call her a million times he doesn't care.

Lie Ruge was signing some documents when her phone rang.She had sent Xu Feng to get some important document for her so he could not assist her in answering the call.The phone rang repeated to extent it became a nuisance to Lie Ruge.She couldn't concentrate on the documents at all.She felt like smashing the phone to pieces.She couldn't disconnect the call or it would worsen the situation with her father so she decided to pick the phone.

"Butler Zhu you might destroy my eardrum at this rate"

"Young Miss,Old Master Lie wants to have a word with you now"

"You don't need to disturb father because I just wanted to warn you not to disturb me during office hours"

Old Master Lie quickly snatch the phone from butler Zhu."You this unfilial daughter of mind,how can you treat your precious father in such a manner ".

"Father how have you been?,I'm so sorry for not replying to all your calls,work has being quite hectic so I didn't have time to reply back"

"work,work Ge'er!All your excuses has been about work.Ge'er! I didn't let you become the CEO of Empire Corporation to become an old spinster.If you will still continue to use the company as an excuse then don't blame for what I will say next"

"Father please beware of your health"

"You know for a fact that I despise it when you lie to me.You made a promise to me six months ago but there have not been any progression from you,instead you have become worst day after day.You no longer eat regularly and you have been working overtime for the past three months"

"Dad..."

She has the habit of calling her father 'DAD' whenever she knew that she was at a disadvantage.

"Ge'er! I won't tolerate anymore excuses from you.Good news for you Ge'er,I just finish making arrangements with my good friend,he assured me that his son will be at the venue so you just have to go to the address of the restaurant butler Zhu will send to you.You know I will not take NO as an answer"

"But Dad....."

"There is no but Ge'er.I gave you the opportunity to find the man you will fall in love with but Ge'er you screwed up,my decision is final".After saying this Old Master Lie disconnected the call.

Throughout that day Lie Ruge was in a very bad mood.She shouted and threw documents at anyone who dares to make even the slightest mistake.Three workers were sacked for annoying the CEO.Everyone avoided her like a plague.Xu Feng of all people was shivering so intensely on his desk.He prayed silently that Lady Boss should not seek his attention for the rest of the day.He had nearly wet his pants due to all the tension he had been through today.

Finally,it was time to go home."I am still alive yeee.....",Xu Feng shouted with joy.
