Chapter 95: What Did This Mean?

Xing Shu’s heart skipped a beat and she quickly looked away.
Nie Heng’s voice continued, but Xing Shu could not hear what he was saying. He was probably asking Liu Chun and Feng Jian to apologize again. Then, the call was hung up, and the entire room fell silent. The cell phone was inexplicably hot in her palm.
Xing Shu’s heart was in turmoil, but Cheng Lang stood up calmly. “There’s an overseas video conference at 10 p.m..” He retrieved his cell phone. His fingertips were cold, extinguishing the warmth in Xing Shu’s heart.
Cheng Lang was always so at ease. One second, he wanted it very much; but the next second, it did not matter. It was as if as long as he wanted to leave, he could leave easily. Xing Shu lowered her eyes. When she looked up again, there was a smile on her face. “President Cheng, you don’t have any objections to me firing Feng Jian, right?”
Cheng Lang replied, “Let the HR Department know the reason for dismissal.”
Xing Shu said, “Okay. I’ll let them know.” She walked to the living room with
Cheng Lang. There was already someone waiting in the living room—Jian Yaochuan. Jian Yaochuan was holding a brand new suit in his hand. When he saw them come out together, he hurriedly looked away. Cheng Lang took the suit and went to the bedroom to change.
Xing Shu stood at the side and did not know what to say. It was only when the two of them were about to leave that she managed to utter, “President Cheng, take care.” She followed Cheng Lang to the door with her walking stick and saw that he was wearing his Bluetooth earpiece and seemed to be preparing for a meeting. She thought that she should be content—he took time out of his busy schedule to entertain her.
Xing Shu was stunned. What did this mean? Did she have feelings for him? No, she must not. She could not put herself in such a lowly position.
Xing Shu lowered her eyes. She sent the email to the HR department. It was already very late, but the HR department replied very quickly and agreed to her request.
Xing Shu heaved a sigh of relief. She rested at home for two days and only drove to the company when her walking was no longer affected. Just as the car stopped downstairs, a car behind her suddenly sped towards her. Xing Shu frowned and quickly turned the steering wheel. The car drove past her car and hit a building at the side. This building was the trademark building of Cheng Corporation Group; designed by an Italian designer and cost a million yuan.
Xing Shu pushed open the car door and got out. She saw Feng Jian getting out of the car. Feng Jian’s head was dizzy from the collision, and there was blood on her forehead. Xing Shu found it funny. How did FengJian get tricked by
Xing Linlin again? This was the second time she had been used by her.
Feng Jian bellowed, “Xing Shu, you dare to fire me?”
Xing Shu did not want to answer this stupid question. She was the Director. What was wrong with firing an employee who wanted to harm her? Such a vicious employee had no place in Cheng Corporation Group. Although Feng Jian was not directly involved in Xing Shu’s attack, she was the mastermind. Now, she was going to assault her again.
The corners of Xing Shu’s lips curled up. She called the police without hesitation. “Talk to the police. This is attempted murder.”
Feng Jian panicked and ran over. She wanted to slap Xing Shu, but was stopped by Xing Shu midair. Xing Shu pushed her and she hit the car beside her.
Bam! Feng Jian’s face contorted in pain. Then, she gritted her teeth—took out a dagger from her bag—and stabbed Xing Shu. Xing Shu dodged to the side and grabbed Feng Jian’s wrist firmly. “Are you crazy?
Feng Jian sneered. She wished she could drink Xing Shu’s blood!
“Xing Shu, the man hiding in the bedroom that day was Cheng Lang, right? Xing Linlin has already told me. You b*tch, how dare you! I’m going to kill you today! Only by killing you will I vent my anger!” Feng Jian had gone mad. She did not know that Xing Shu was trained in martial arts!
Xing Shu felt that Xing Linlin was quite smart. In order to instigate Feng Jian to deal with her, Xing Linlin’s wild guess turned out to be inadvertently true. The man in the bedroom that day was indeed Cheng Lang.
Xing Shu smiled and looked at Feng Jian’s distorted face. She said softly, “Since you know that the person in the bedroom that day was Cheng Lang, you should know that I fired you with Cheng Lang’s permission. Moreover, I don’t have to repeat how hysterical you were that day, right? Do you think Cheng Lang will fall for a crazy woman?”
Xing Shu wanted to hit Feng Jian where it hurt the most and specially poked that spot. The last trace of color on Feng Jian’s face disappeared, and she stood rooted to the ground..
