Chapter 769 - The Lady Boss is from the Countryside  

Leng Piaoxue had been searching high and low for the red rope. Eventually, she had to accept that the red rope had disappeared.

Leng Piaoxue said that the red rope couldn’t be cut by a knife and burned by fire. In order to stop her from going crazy, her subordinates used nanotechnology to create an identical red rope.

The new red rope was very sturdy and was the same weight and length as the one she used to wear. At first, Leng Piaoxue didn’t suspect anything. She knew that the immortal was hibernating, so he wouldn’t respond to her summons.

Leng Piaoxue put the red rope around her wrist. But she felt that something was off. As for what it was, she couldn’t say.

Since the immortal was hibernating, she would try summoning him later.

The sudden disappearance of the rope made Leng Piaoxue nervous and afraid. At that time, she felt lonely and helpless. She even fell into fear and despair.

She relied on the immortal so much. Without the immortal and the invisibility spell, she did not feel safe at all.

She had founded the shadow organization, but almost none of the members were loyal to her. Almost all of them were controlled by her through illegal means. Without the help of the immortal, she couldn’t control them anymore. If they knew the truth, they would tear her into pieces. Thinking of this, Leng Piaoxue’s heart trembled.

‘No. I mustn’t let them find out something is wrong. The only way to do that is to act like everything is normal. After the immortal wakes up, I can continue my revenge on Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao.’ After thinking for a moment, Leng Piaoxue calmed down.

Her main problem now was her hair and appearance.

This was the backlash from killing a mortal. The Immortal was injured. He couldn’t help her, so she had to seek help from modern doctors. Of course, she had to do this secretly.

The best hospital in the capital was a hospital under the Imperial Palace Group.

However, Leng Piaoxue had a guilty conscience. She did not dare to go to the Imperial Palace Care Hospital. Instead, she wrapped herself up and sneaked to First Hospital. She even shielded her eyes with a pair of sunglasses. Even her family wouldn’t recognize her like this.

Leng Piaoxue settled everything so that she would have the VIP treatment.

“Miss Leng, after a morning of physical examinations, I found that you are very healthy.”

Leng Piaoxue said unhappily, “I don’t need you to do that. I only need to know this. Will my hair grow back? And can the pockmarks on my body be treated?” She was so ugly that she didn’t even want to look at herself.

In fact, she was most afraid of being seen by Jiang Tao. With heartache, she rejected Jiang Tao’s invitations several times.

The doctor looked at the results of the various examinations and said carefully, “Miss Leng, the results of the examinations are…” Then, the Doctor explained the various professional terms to her.

As Leng Piaoxue listened, her expression became more and more unsightly. There was even a hint of anger on her face as she shouted, “So, you mean that my hair and my pockmarks can not be treated.”

The doctor said, “Miss Leng, I understand your feelings, but that is what the test results show.”

Leng Piaoxue immediately shouted angrily, “You’re a quack. If you don’t know how to treat it, just say it!”

The doctor’s expression was extremely unsightly.

Leng Piaoxue immediately wrapped herself up, took her handbag, and left. When she was about to reach the door, she suddenly turned around and even took out her gun. She sternly warned the doctor, “Watch your mouth!”

The doctor’s face instantly turned pale, and cold sweat kept pouring out. He nodded in horror and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve never seen you before.”

Leng Piaoxue said faintly, “What about the others?” The doctor was not the only one who had seen her that day.

“Don’t worry. They don’t know anything either!” The Doctor said fearfully.

Leng Piaoxue nodded and said, “I’m warning you. If I hear any news about me, I’ll put the blame on you.”

The doctor’s face was extremely pale. He immediately promised, “No, no, we’ve never met you before!”

Hearing the Doctor’s reply, Leng Piaoxue nodded in satisfaction and left.

After she left, the doctor wiped his sweat with his hand. Then, he immediately made a phone call and ordered sternly, “Destroy all the records of Leng Piaoxue’s case today. Don’t ask why.”

After he hung up the phone, he immediately collapsed on the stool.

Leng Piaoxue was really too terrifying.

In the following days, Leng Piaoxue secretly went to several large hospitals for an examination. The results were all the same, and the doctors in those hospitals all immediately ordered the destruction of all the medical records after she left.

Leng Piaoxue, who had returned to the villa, was really angry and frightened.

Did this mean she would be ugly for the rest of her life?

‘No. That won’t be the case. This is just the backlash of the spell. When the backlash expires, I’ll return to normal.’ Leng Piaoxue consoled herself.

However, she was still a little worried and didn’t dare to go to the hospital under the Emperor Palace Group. Under the suggestion of her bodyguards, she decided to go abroad.

That way, she could escape Gong Tianhao. Plus, when she went abroad, she wasn’t afraid of being recognized.

Gong Tianhao had sent people to keep an eye on Leng Piaoxue and knew that she had already left the country. Gong Tianhao only ordered his men to keep an eye on her and didn’t take it to heart.

It was getting closer and closer to the new year, and the couple had more and more things to do.

Every year, the Imperial Palace would hold an annual party before the Chinese New Year holidays.

When Xiao Lingyu’s company reached a certain size, it also started to hold an annual New Year party.

There were many things to do.

When Gong Tianhao returned home, he saw Xiao Lingyu busy in the study. He walked over and lightly touched her cheek. Then, he said, “Yu ‘Er, our company is holding an annual party the day after tomorrow. Would you like to attend it with me?”

Xiao Lingyu did not say anything. Gong Tianhao continued, “Yu ‘Er, during the annual party, I have to find a partner to dance with. You won’t want me to dance with another woman, right?”

Xiao Lingyu raised her head from the table and rolled her eyes. Then, she smiled and said, “You’re already a man with a wife and children, yet you still want to find another woman to dance with?”

Gong Tianhao immediately smiled like a lackey and said, “How dare I? I have such a beautiful wife. None of the other women can compare to my wife.”

Xiao Lingyu said with a fake smile, “Does that mean that you will be interested if there’s someone as beautiful as me?”

“…” Gong Tianhao asked, “Honey, what’s wrong with you? Are you tired? Come, let me massage your shoulders. You should relax.” Gong Tianhao walked behind her and massaged her shoulders.

Xiao Lingyu closed her eyes and enjoyed the service. She asked, “Honey, how many people will attend the annual party?”

Gong Tianhao said, “About 300 to 400 people. Apart from the company’s top management, there will also be executives from all the branches around the world. I’ve prepared your dress for you!”

“Okay!”

…

In the internal group of the Imperial Group

“Have you heard about it?”

“Heard about what?”

“Damn! Don’t you know? Our boss will bring the lady boss to the annual meeting this year.”

“Oh my God, is this true? Boss hasn’t attended the annual meeting for two years. But this time, he’s going to bring the lady boss?”

“Who is our lady boss?”

“Don’t you know? Her news has been spreading like wildfire since the Gong Family welcomed her back with great fanfare. At that time, there were even videos and photos. Speaking of which, our lady boss is really beautiful.”

“The lady boss is indeed very beautiful. However, I heard that the lady boss seems to have come from the countryside.” The person who said this had a disdainful look on his face.

Immediately after, someone retorted, “So what if she came from the countryside? She has a large corporation with over ten billion in assets. Moreover, she is an independent person with full control of the shares. You’re not from the countryside, but can you create a company with ten billion in assets?”

The person immediately argued, “If my husband is the richest person in the country, why can’t I do that?” Her tone was obviously sour.

In her heart, their boss was wise and mighty, the king of the business world, powerful and handsome. The woman he married must have a powerful background to be worthy of him. However, the boss actually married a country bumpkin.

When the others heard this woman, they immediately ignored her in case they were implicated.

“I heard that the lady boss is very beautiful, but I haven’t seen her in person.”

“Have any of you ever heard of the Peach Blossom Beauty?”

“I’ve heard of her. It seems to be…”
