Xie Ming stared at Liwei when she heard his ambitious response. What does he mean that they will get the evidence later?
….
In a spacious, extravagant office, Do Lingyuan was sitting on his executive chair and frowned reading the articles about Yuan Lei. He has been treating her well because she is obedient and a wild cat in the bed. He never cared about these little scandals since they are common in the entertainment industry, but harming another person? animal abuse charges? On top of that, dealing with illegal drugs?
These charges can not only end her career but the people involved with her as well. If the charges were proved then she will be doomed.
He was reading the articles intently with an annoyed look on his face when someone knocked on the door.
" Sir, I tried to deal with the police secretly but seems like Ms. Yuan Lei can't get out
before tomorrow. Since it's Sunday, the courts are closed and she couldn't get out yet." his secretary said while wiping his sweat from his face.
It's a weekend but he has to come to the office just to deal with Yuan Lei's case.
Do Lingyuan's expressions darkened upon hearing this as he said, " How can they keep her for so long? She was taken for interrogation only. They don't even have any proof yet. Can they keep her inside the lockup for long."
" Err..Ms. Yuan Lei's charges are not simple. It does not only include physical assault or animal abuse but the dealing of forbidden drugs. The narcotics department has taken charge of this case and they were very strict compared to the police. Also, since the courts are closed today, we can't get her on bail before tomorrow."
" Argh, this bitch." she slammed the table and angrily said, " Can't she just live quietly? Why does she love to create trouble for me?"
The secretary pursed his lips and waited for him to calm down before speaking again. His lips were quivering because he knows what he is going to say will make him go crazy.
"Erm...Sir, there are some articles about your relationship with Ms.Yuan Lei. Not only that, but the paparazzi have also taken some shots of you and Ms. Yuan...making out together in the car. The article was spreading on the internet like fire and since Ms. Yuan Lei is already involved in the scandal, this added fuel to the fire."
" Also, the..value of our company's shares is decreasing tremendously. The reputation of Do Enterprises is going downhill because of this incidence," he said while showing him the articles and reports of the shares.
Do Lingyuan's expressions darkened hearing his secretary's words. He gritted his teeth and said, " Stop dealing with police anymore. Leave that bitch alone. I can't lose my hard-earned wealth behind that slu*ty bitch.
Tell the lawyer to not apply for her bail anymore. She will manage these things herself. "
"Also, call the public department and tell them to release a statement saying that this news is false and I have no relationship with that bitch. From now on, there is no need to get yourself involved with that bitch's affairs. Let her manage everything herself." he said annoyedly.
The secretary pursed his lips and left the room to settle the things.

Ji Dynasty
Zhao Ming was lazily sitting on her chair while other consorts were looking around the room in stupor and astonishment. It was their first time to visit Ji Cheng's chamber. In the past, he never let any consort enter inside his chamber, Xiao Li has come a few times but she never gets to look around like this.
They can't help but feel jealous of Zhao Ming. In the past, when she didn't' get the status of the Empress fully, she used to live at Lotus pavilion. However, since the day she has shifted to the Main Palace, her status in the palace has increased a lot. Now no one dared to call her an unwanted Empress.
Lu shi who was standing beside Zhao Ming couldn't help but giggle seeing everyone's expressions.
Today is the month-end harem meeting which Zhao Ming has arranged in her chamber, in Ji Cheng's chamber.
Generally, they hold their meetings in his study room but today he had some work to do. He had asked Feng Ju to arrange a room for her meetings and work but she denied and said that she would manage.
So she arranged the meeting in her room. After all, she never invited the other consorts to their chamber, she needs to do some show off as well.
Feng Ju had arranged the chairs and a table in the center of the room for them to proceed with the meeting. A few consorts came earlier than expected to look around the chamber.
Who would leave a chance to look around His Majesty's chamber?
Zhao Ming was sitting on the chair, drinking her coffee which she had prepared after roasting the cocoa seeds brought by Xiao Li's father.
Although she doesn't like her nor her father, she doesn't have any animosity against the cocoa seeds. How can she not use them?
More importantly, in the palace, no one liked its taste other than her. For them, it is bitter and strong. They can't understand why people drink this. However, for her, it was like heaven.
The cocoa seeds were organic and fragrant. The coffee was strong, so she added some milk and sugar to balance its taste. Although she can drink black coffee, however, after coming to this world, her taste buds have changed and it was hard for her to drink black coffee.
She looked at the consorts who were looking around in amus.e.m.e.nt and chuckled.
" Waah. His Majesty's room is so big and extravagant. It's much more beautiful than Empress Dowager's room." One of the consort commented while looking around.
The consort beside her looked at her and said, " How can you say that? Have you visited the Empress Dowager's room before?"
" Yes. I went there for some work, although it was only for a minute, I saw her chamber. It was full of gold and silver items. However, this room is so colorful and soothing. The curtains are so beautiful, and so the paintings in the room. Her Majesty has decorated this room very beautifully."
Zhao Ming raised her brows hearing the compliments from the other Consort's mouth. They never complimented her before but how come they changed their attitude now?
She snickered and shook her head.
