Chapter 155 - Thanks to Feng Dingxiong

"Please enlighten me?" Xiu Mei stood against the door, arms crossed, watching the man standing in front of her with deep frown lines.

Feng Jianyu approached her, snaked his arms around her waist. "See, how about you eat your breakfast with me first, then we'll go together to Phoenix Enterprises to get your stuff and then finally I'll drive you back to the villa… Sounds good? Or we can do another way, like first get your stuff, then breakfast and then home…"

"My a*s!! Don't you dare step your foot inside Phoenix Enterprises! Did you forget how big of a rival our companies are?" She drowned in utter guilty conscience, her voice dropped down as she reminded him, "And especially this massive storm of Infinity Software has not calmed down yet; reporters are constantly lurking around our companies for good news. If an employee of Phoenix Enterprises is seen with the big boss of Feng Corporation, this will be the breaking news for the whole week."

'And X? How will I explain all this to him? And if I didn't, he will surely investigate it himself.' She thought inwardly.

Feng Jianyu laughed at her reasoning and how she reacted while talking about Infinity Software, still guilty struck. "You have underestimated my capabilities dear." She frowned at his response and he rubbed his hand on her forehead to straighten the frown lines. "You really think it's that easy to telecast any news about Feng's? Nobody can print or telecast any news about us without prior permission. Especially if it's related to the family members or their personal lives, it requires my approval first. Understand?"

"Understood, but why so strict rules?" She cannot stop herself from asking. Indeed in the last seven years never for once, she saw his picture in any of his interviews, magazines or newspaper.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have waited so long to destroy Infinity Software. Till now she misunderstood that he sold the software to Feng Corporation seven years back in exchange for good money. And no matter what, she doesn't want any innocent person to suffer in her revenge so she let go of Feng Corporation until she saw him in her villa… Thanks to Feng Dingxiong….

"This is the rule made by dad years ago. And I too think it's somehow in our best interest that we keep our private lives out of this media circus."

Xiu Mei brows rose at his response. Feng Jianyu chuckles and explains her further, "I'm not biased against media and neither have any animosity against them. It's just, nobody has the right to interfere in my private life and shove their opinions on me. It's my life my way… If they want to write about my business then go ahead but you can't write about my personal life or take a picture of mine without my permission."

"Hm! Good rule! These media people are sometimes really annoying… It's good you keep them out of your life" she nodded along with him and he asked expectantly, "So? This means you have no objection if I accompany you?"

Xiu Mei "…." She steps back from his arms before talking to him….

"Wait! I have got a better idea. How about I'll leave right now, get my stuff and return back ASAP, as my company is just five minutes distance from here. Then we'll eat breakfast together and head back to the villa. Right?" She hits her head while she recalls something, "And yes, my clothes… I don't have any clothes here to freshen up. Last night I must have sweated a lo...…. Ouchhh"

Suddenly somebody opens the door from the outside and since her back was against the door, it hit her hard causing her to crash back in Feng Jianyu's arms. Reflexively he holds her firmly and rubbed her head, "Are you hurt?"

"No… I'm fine"

He narrowed his eyes at the door, set ablaze; ready to burn off the person on the spot who dared to hurt her. No matter even if it's done by mistake, he is done for now. The person who enters through the door was none other than his secretary Rong Xiang.

Rong Xiang was surprised to see a woman in his boss' office and that too in his boss' arms. This could be the next breaking news if it got leaked out that Feng Corporation's big Boss was found hugging a woman. Don't know how many women's heart will shatter at this news.

But the next second he looked at his boss' raging face. He obviously knows the gravity of his crime by looking at how Jianyu was protectively holding the woman and rubbing her head.

"B-Boss… I-I… M-Madam… I'm sorry… I was not aware that you were standing against the door. M-My mistake…. S-Sorry madam…. Please… S-Sorry madam" Rong Xiang can't help but stammer in fear. To salvage his sinking boat he tried to take help of the woman by apologizing to her out rightly. Although chances were low, if she decided to forgive him then his boss also might let go of him.

"Don't you know before entering my cabin you're supposed to knock?" Feng Jianyu scowled gnashing his teeth while Xiu Mei's face was still hidden in his embrace.

Rong Xiang was sweating profusely, praying to Buddha, 'please save me today… I promise to burn a thousand incense sticks at the temple and will donate good money at the monastery'

"It' OK… I'm fine…. Let him go" She discreetly patted his back and whispered. But Feng Jianyu was looking at his secretary as though any moment he will throw him out of the window.

When Jianyu didn't give any reply for a long time she tried to persuade him, "Just let him go. UNSCATHED… and I promise to eat breakfast with you without any further argument…"

"What about letting me accompany you to Phoenix Enterprises?"

"Argh… Yes… that also"

"What about taking your medicines on time?"

"Too demanding…." She looked up angrily. He stared in her eyes, without lifting his gaze for a second he yelled, "Rong Xiang…."

"Yes… medicine also….Happy now?" Standing on the corner, Rong Xiang was surprised at how his boss was behaving with the woman. Using him as a bait, the boss was indirectly forcing the lady to yield in front of his demands. But Rong Xiang was more stunned by his boss' soft gaze at the lady, never for once, Feng Jianyu gave her the same angry look the way he looked at his assistant. It was like a flipping of a switch….

Rong Xiang understood that the woman he just hit holds a very important position in his boss' life. And only she can save him right now.

Feng Jianyu didn't respond for a long time and kept on looking at her face. He was about to turn his gaze back to his secretary when she warned him, "One more time you look at Rong Xiang and I won't talk to you for the entire week…."

His brows furrowed, while Xiu Mei gave a winning smirk to him. "Rong Xiang keep the bags on the couch and go from here…" he ordered shortly.

"Rong Xiang…" Xiu Mei called and he turned to look at the woman whose face was still hidden from his sight. "Y-Yes, madam…"
