Chapter 130 - Go to a Secluded Place With Us

During lunchtime, the people who had come from overseas were talking about a unit that Feng Conglomerate had that manufactured copper wires. The production was huge, as the market demand had increased. The people proposed a plan in which they wanted to get into mining copper so that they didn't have to depend on the import, which were attracting very large import duties. This in turn was eating their profits. 

Xie Yuansheng was not able to concentrate on what those people were talking about as all his focus was on a photo on his phone of a girl wearing a flowery tiara. He stroked her face on the phone and looked at all the flowers that surrounded her head. The red roses bouquet that she had in her hands that afternoon reflected the red color on her skin and he she looked ethereal. Xie Yuansheng sighed feeling love all the more for her. All of a sudden he remembered who the hell that bouquet had gone to and he sulked. 

"Sir, what do you think of the plan that we have proposed. It would be better if we get into copper mining business. The investment in copper mining is going to be beneficial to us in the long run," said one of the managers putting his fork down and looking at Xie Yuansheng. 

Xie Yuansheng looked up with a start when "Sir" was mentioned. He nodded and replied, "Yes, we must start flower business. Let us buy some rose gardens in China and some tulip garden in Holland. It will be very beneficial." 

All the managers out there were engineers and management graduates and none of them was a florist. They didn't know 'F' of flowers. All of them stopped eating and stared at Xie Yuansheng. One of them coughed and said, "Sir, do you mean we have copper mines in Holland and China?" He was trying to put Xie Yuansheng down showing off that while they were talking about projects like copper mines, the CEO was talking about flowers. 

Xie Yuansheng was jolted in the present. He made a face and pursed his lips. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "I am sorry gentlemen. Please continue the discussion."

The manager again said the same thing to which Xie Yuansheng replied, "Do you know the cost of buying a mine? And where are the copper mines present? Have you made any project on that or you have come to me without any solution? Just because there is a large demand for copper wires doesn't mean that we buy copper mines? The demand may decrease over time, then what is going to happen? It just doesn't stop at buying the mine, we need to maintain it as well. Have you considered those points?" 

After listening to so many points, the managers looked down. They couldn't argue any of his points. Xie Yuansheng finished lunch sooner and got up before them. "Gentlemen, thanks for coming here and spending your valuable time with me. I have to go back and discuss about new project of Feng Conglomerate of getting into flowers business." Xie Yuansheng buttoned the front button of his coat and left the venue. All his energy was now focused on his wife and her red bouquet. 

When he reached the building of the office, he saw that there were some people who had gathered in a crowd. Although he was curious to know who they were, he just walked past them. They all fell silent as soon as they saw the CEO. He reached the elevator and pressed the button. As he waited for the elevator, he noticed that three girls surrounded him and they were passing glances at him while giggling. He also noticed that they were wearing very short skirts. Their front buttons of the shirt was open up till their bras.

"Good afternoon CEO Xie Yuansheng," they said in unison. 

Xie Yuansheng nodded at them appalled by the way they were dressed. It wasn't appropriate for the office. The elevator came and he stepped into it. The three girls followed him inside. Xie Yuansheng went and stood in the corner to allow them space but the three of them stood up and close to him. One of them bit her lip and said, "CEO, the three of us were thinking that you hardly spend time with the junior staff. Would it be possible to spend time with us?" 

Xie Yuansheng frowned at them. "What do you mean? I don't have time to spend time as leisurely as you guys have!" he scolded them. 

One of them opened her shirt a little more and said, "The three of are thinking if you would like to go to a secluded place with us. We can spend the best time of our lives. I bet that you won't regret." 

Just then the elevator stopped and the door opened. The three of them stepped out and waited for his answer. However, Xie Yuansheng left them and darted out of the lift. He headed for his office straightaway. The three of them looked at each other and then gave muffled laughter.

"See, this was so easy. No man can resist three girls at one time jumping on him. I am sure we will hear from him soon," said their leader. 

"It would be such a shame for Feng Xinying. Now she will understand what it is to talk to us like that. She thinks she is the beauty of the office. Wait and see you bitch!" said another one and they all started laughing. They buttoned the shirts and went to their respective places. 

When Xie Yuansheng reached his office, he stood on the door for sometime only to glance towards Feng Xinying's cubicle to see whether the bouquet was there or not. It wasn't there. His heart raced crazily. He opened the door and stormed inside the room. 

He started pacing the room up and down. Whom she must have given the bouquet? Has she given it to Wu Bosun? Has Luciano come back? Or has she found someone worthier than him. His thoughts raced like a wild horse in a jungle and his mood darkened.
