Chapter 60 - Wang Zirong’s Deal

Wang Zirong was Lim Chuen's spy in the Feng Conglomerate. And Lim Chuen was the biggest shareholder in the company. He was constantly looking for way to remove Xie Yuansheng and had relied on Wang Zirong. Ever since she had failed on acquiring the Yao Yi's hotel, he had become very angry with her. He was unable to understand how could Xie Yuansheng come to know his game plan. He had played his cards well, but things just backfired. He called Wang Zirong to his office.

When Wang Zirong was informed by his secretary of meeting him, she became nervous. She knew that Lim Chuen wouldn't take it kindly. She had returned the money that he had wired to her bank account. However, that wasn't enough. She went to meet him after the office hours.

When she reached there, she found Lim Chuen to be in a very foul mood. He was shouting at someone on his phone giving orders to amputate his limbs. Wang Zirong cringed. When the conversation finished, she greeted him nervously. "Good evening sir."

Lim Chuen scowled at her and said, "It seems you have forgotten how to carry out the mission properly. If you can not do it, let me know clearly and I will make sure that you stop working in that company."

"I am sorry sir. This won't happen again..." she replied.

"I am giving you so many perks apart from what you are getting from Feng's. What for? To see you failing in every task that is assigned to you? Do you realize how important that Yao Yi's project was?" He barked at her. "It was worth millions of Yuan!"

Wang Zirong lowered her head and listened to him for the next half an hour. "Recruit more girls around him if you have to!" He said.

"Yes sir!" She said.

"You May leave now," he dismissed her with irritation.

Just as she was about to get up, he asked, "Why are your plans getting thwarted these days so easily?"

"There's a new recruit in the office, Feng Xinying. She is responsible for thwarting our plans," replied Wang Zirong.

Lim Chuen frowned and said, "Okay... go..."

When she left, he called his man to send him a report about Feng Xinying.

Next day at the office was very peaceful. Feng Xinying was happy that neither Yun Chen nor Wang Zirong was there to trouble her. All the office work was carried nicely. She even started contemplating asking Xie Yuansheng to remove Wang Zirong or send her over seas.

That even when they were going back together, he asked her, "Do you remember that Yao Yi had called us for dinner tonight?"

Feng Xinying was startled. She had forgotten everything about it. "No, I forgot! But I cannot go!" She lamented.

"Why?" He asked bemused.

"I don't have any good dress to wear," she cried.

Xie Yuansheng immediately asked his driver to take them to the mall that was owned by the Feng's. It was already 7PM in the evening so he hurried her inside to buy a dress. She looked at him with appreciative glance. For the next one hour, Feng Xinying sifted through numerous dresses and wore them to show Xie Yuansheng. Patiently, he sat there and watched her shopping. Spending casual time with her was relaxing for him.

He liked all of them while she rejected all of them until one lavender silk gown caught her attention that was backless. They went to the counter where she insisted to pay, but the manager said, "Thanks miss, but Mr. Xie Yuansheng has unlimited access in this shop. So we cannot accept your card."

Feng Xinying looked at Xie Yuansheng who was only smiling. She smiled at him and they exited.

In the evening Feng Xinying got ready by 9PM. When she went downstairs, she found Xie Yuansheng waiting for her. As she came near him, he stared at her. She looked stunning. As she turned to leave, he saw that her dress was backless until her low spine. He went near her and made her wear the coat that she was supposed to wear for the journey to the venue. She thanked him softly. As he was making her wear, his hand brushed her back. She gasped and bit her lower lip.

"Let's go," he said and then held her lightly on the waist to lead her to the car.

In the car Xie Yuansheng couldn't keep his eyes off her. She had worn minimal makeup. Unlike in his past life when she was used to wearing heavy makeup, in this life he found her pleasing. Feng Xinying kept biting her lower lip under his stare. Finally he had to take his hand and force her not to bite it. "I don't want you to wound your lip," he said and she left it, now getting a pink blush.

They reached the venue soon. Xie Yuansheng lead his beautiful wife inside as he maintained to keep his hand on her back. She was liking his touch. When they reached inside, he whispered softly in her ear, "Stay with me. I don't want anyone to come near you or even ogle you. I am a jealous man." He stroked her back lightly.
