Bai Lu subconsciously squinted her eyes when she saw the two glaring high beams. Her whole body stiffened, and she forgot to avoid them for a moment.
She watched as the car drove straight toward her. Suddenly, a hand appeared on her waist, and her wrist was grabbed by someone in time. Then, a strong force pulled her whole body into a wall of flesh.
Bai Lu could smell a familiar scent. She felt her heart fall gently, and then it began to beat wildly again.
"Don't you know it's dangerous?" A slightly anxious male voice came from above her head. Liang Feifan's thick eyebrows were knitted together, and deep in his eyes, there was still worry that he couldn't hide. "Damn it, I know you feel wronged. Even if you feel wronged, don't make life difficult for your own body."
Bai Lu tried to calm herself down. She raised her head from his arms and pushed him away with both hands. "I was just careless. Mr. Liang, do you think I'm the kind of stupid woman who would punish herself for something like this? Then you must be wrong about me! I won't punish myself for someone else! "
This time, there was no car, so she went straight to her car without any obstruction.
She inserted the car key, started the engine, released the handbrake, stepped on the accelerator, and turned the steering wheel.
All the actions were done in one go. Bai Lu didn't look at Liang Feifan from beginning to end. The car was already speeding toward the exit.
Liang Feifan stood in the same place, his suit jacket still hanging on his arm. His dark eyes stared in the direction of the disappearing taillights. His eyes were a little scattered, and gradually, they lost focus.
However, in the void, a name appeared clearly — Bai Lu.
When Guan Chao brought the freshly brewed coffee into the CEO's office, he was still a little confused.
Wasn't Secretary Bai's today? It was almost ten o 'clock, but she was nowhere to be seen. Also, he went to the design department just now, but it seemed that she wasn't there.
Where did Secretary Bai go?
The point was, Mr. Liang seemed to know something, but he didn't say anything. Naturally, he couldn't ask more.
"Mr Liang, your coffee."
As soon as he put down the coffee, Liang Feifan's cell phone rang. Guan Chao saw that he was about to answer the call and was about to leave when Liang Feifan said, "Guan Chao, go to the parking lot downstairs. I have an iPad in my car. Bring it up for me."
"Yes, Mr. Liang."
As soon as Guan Chao left, Liang Feifan picked up the call. He said hello in a low voice before he heard Liang Jiesheng anxiously calling out to him, "Mr. Liang, you finally picked up my call. Um... Haha, I have something I want to talk to you about in person. Do you think... you can find some time to meet me?"
Liang Feifan twirled the pen in his hand. "You're too kind, President Li. Since you want to see me, just come to EC. I have something to ask President Li as well."
Liang Jiesheng was overjoyed when he heard that Liang Feifan was willing to see him. He quickly agreed, "Okay, okay, okay. Mr. Liang, I'll be there in half an hour."
Liang Feifan hung up the phone expressionlessly. Then, as if nothing had happened, he buried his head and finished the last document. Then, he turned his office chair and waited for Guan Chao to come up.
In less than five minutes, Guan Chao came in with the iPad. Liang Feifan's slender fingers drew circles on the iPad's screen. After a while, he said to Guan Chao in a low voice, "Go and investigate something for me. Two months ago, Liang Jiesheng and I negotiated a contract at Imperial Palace. I was drunk at the time. After entering the hotel, I found a woman on the bed. You have to investigate the cause and effect of this incident. "
Guan Chao already knew that Liang Jiesheng must have caused trouble. Otherwise, given Mr. Liang's personality, it was unlikely that he would have any interaction with someone like him.
Although he had his suspicions, he never asked too much. He quickly nodded in agreement. "Yes, Mr. Liang. I'll send someone to investigate right away."
"Guan Chao."
Just as he walked to the door, Liang Feifan stopped him again. This time, he did not immediately give the order. He frowned and seemed to be thinking about something. He seemed to be hesitating.
"Mr. Liang, do you have any other orders?"
After waiting for a long time, Liang Feifan did not speak. Guan Chao could not help but ask.
"Yes. Inform the human resources department that Bai Lu is no longer an employee of EC. She submitted her resignation letter to me. Also, check with the accounting department. Ask them to give her her salary and year-end bonus for the past three months."
Guan Chao was extremely shocked. "Mr. Liang, you mean... Secretary Bai is no longer working as a secretary?"
What was going on?
Did Mr. Liang fire her? It did not seem like it. Wasn't Mr. Liang quite satisfied with her? Moreover, he was always helping her both openly and secretly. He even let her enter the design department. Now, the situation …
Liang Feifan only glanced at Guan Chao and said indifferently, "She has a lot of room for development. Being a secretary is indeed not good for her."
He only said this one sentence and did not say anything else.
Although Guan Chao was confused, he was basically certain that Mr. Liang did not fire Secretary Bai. He probably arranged a better position for her, right?
"Mr. Liang, I understand. I'll take care of this matter right away." Guan Chao thought about it and asked again, "Now, Mr. Liang, your secretary …"
"You can go back to the headquarters." Liang Feifan knew what he was worried about. He picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip. In a deep voice, he said, "Ye Lian is back. I've already promised Uncle Ye to let her work with me for a while. She'll come over next week."
So that was what it was. This was also expected. Guan Chao nodded respectfully. "Yes, Mr. Liang. If there's no other orders, I'll leave first."
Not long after Guan Chao left, Liang Jiesheng hurried over.
Liang Feifan raised his wrist and looked at his watch. The corners of his mouth curled up habitually. "Mr. Li, you have a good sense of time. You're five minutes early. Unfortunately, I still have some documents to deal with. If you don't mind, Mr. Li, sit over there and wait for me for a while. How about it?"
Liang Jiesheng rushed over in a hurry. He completely misunderstood last night, which led to the news from the company that there was a problem with the resort project. The Liang Clan also stopped work. Sheng Yuan had already allocated a lot of money to this project. If this continued, the wealthy Liang Clan could afford it, but Sheng Yuan could not!
Even if Liang Jiesheng had a pig's brain, he knew that this matter must have something to do with Liang Feifan!
He had caused trouble last night, so he thought that he should come over and explain in person. He could not let Sheng Yuan take the blame because of Bai Lu!
"No problem, no problem!" He nodded and bowed. "Mr. Liang, please go ahead. I'll sit here and wait for a while."
Liang Feifan had already lowered his eyes and was focused on the documents beside him. It seemed that he was not going to talk to him.
Liang Jiesheng angrily sat on the sofa. He felt uneasy, but his mouth was dry. There wasn't even a secretary in such a big EC. He sat there for more than half an hour, but there wasn't even a cup of tea served. Liang Jiesheng was a vice president after all. He was more or less unhappy, but he was in Liang Feifan's territory now. How could he dare to say anything?
After another half an hour, Liang Feifan still did not seem to have made any moves.
Liang Jiesheng sat until his butt hurt. He usually did not sit for so long in the office, but now he was trembling with fear. He felt that his neck seemed to be a little stiff …
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Liang Feifan finally stood up from his office chair. He casually picked up the iPad beside him and walked over to Liang Jiesheng.
Liang Jiesheng hurriedly stood up from the sofa. He secretly sighed in relief, but on the surface, he looked respectful. "No, no, Mr. Liang. I came early. You're busy with work, so of course I didn't want to disturb you."
"Sit." Liang Feifan sat down on the sofa opposite him. He quietly placed the iPad on the coffee table and elegantly crossed his legs. When he saw that there was no one in front of him, he suddenly realized something. "Mr. Li, I'm so sorry. I just asked you to sit down. No one even brought you a cup of coffee."
"It's okay, Mr. Liang. I … I'm not very thirsty."
Liang Feifan raised his eyebrows. "Mr. Li, I'll make a fool of myself if I tell you. Actually, this kind of thing is done by Secretary Bai, but today she … She was a little frightened yesterday, so she didn't come to work today. My secretary's office is empty."
As soon as he mentioned Bai Lu, no matter how stupid Liang Jiesheng was, he could tell that they were about to get to the point. He hurriedly stood up and recited the draft he had previously memorized word by word. "Mr. Liang, speaking of Secretary Bai … Um, I'm here today to explain what happened last night to Mr. Liang. Actually, Mr. Liang, it's really a misunderstanding. I had no intention of tainting your woman. I drank too much at the time. You know that men can't control themselves when they drink too much. Plus, this Secretary Bai looks proper, but she's actually very slutty. Yesterday, she really seduced me. Then, I don't know why she suddenly called for help … "
Liang Feifan flicked his fingernails and smirked. He didn't have any intention of speaking and waited for Liang Jiesheng to continue.
However, his gaze was as deep as a bottomless black hole. He looked very calm, but there seemed to be an undercurrent surging within. Liang Jiesheng saw his seemingly lazy and casual gaze, but it was actually complicated and sharp. He shuddered, and the rest of his words got stuck in his throat.
However, since he had chosen to push all the blame onto that woman, how could he back out now?
He had already thought of all the excuses, and this was only the first half. When he got to the second half, Liang Feifan would have to believe him even if he didn't want to!
"Mr. Liang, I know that you definitely don't believe what I'm saying. After all, that person is your secretary. I'm sure you won't be happy if I say that about her, but …"
"No, Mr. Li, as long as what you're saying is the truth, I definitely won't side with my own people without knowing what's right and wrong. Besides, she's just a secretary. "
