Chapter 96: Enjoyed Bedding
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Cheng Lang gave his permission to fire her? Cheng Lang actually hid in a woman’s bedroom. How was that possible? He was so unattainable. Feng Jian’s eyes instantly turned red. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell Cheng Xingyang about this? You dare to seduce his Young Uncle? You’re really bonkers. How could Cheng Lang like you? You’re so dirty…”
Xing Shu raised her eyebrows and slowly let go of Feng Jian’s hand. “But the truth is, Cheng Lang enjoyed bedding me.”
Every word pierced Feng Jian’s heart like a knife. Feng Jian still had not recovered from her shock by the time she was taken into custody by the police. She was utterly devastated and suffered a complete mental breakdown.
When the police handcuffed Feng Jian’s wrist, they heard her mutter softly,
“Impossible… Impossible… Why would he like you… Why would he touch you…
When Feng Jian was brought into the police car by the police, she suddenly went berserk and tried to break free. “Xing Shu! Don’t be smug! Wait and see! Do you think Cheng Lang will like you? You’re just a pastime for him. He’ll dump you sooner or later! Hahaha, what I am today is what you are tomorrow! Hahaha!” Her hoarse voice made one’s hair stand on end. Xing Shu stood rooted to the ground. No wonder FengJian was so easily tricked by Xing Linlin. Her infatuation with Cheng Lang had reached the point of deviation; any sentence could stir up the darkness in her heart.
Xing Shu felt terrible after the momentary reprieve of pleasure. Yes, FengJian’s outcome was a reminder to her. Look, this is what your future looks like. This is the result ofliking Cheng Lang. She took a deep breath and warned herself that she must not let herself get to this point.
When Xing Shu entered the department, everyone looked over. Everyone knew that Feng Jian had been fired. However, no one knew about the scene downstairs. Xing Shu took the document and saw that it was a new project—the investment appraisal of Alpha Corporation. Xing Shu thought her eyes were playing tricks on her. After perusing the thick stack of documents, she confirmed that it was indeed Alpha Corporation.
Although Cheng Corporation Group had long been diversified and had many businesses, this was the first time they had extended their interest to an internet company. She rubbed her eyebrows and felt that this decision might not have come from Cheng Lang. The directors were probably anxious to prove themselves for fear of being in Cheng Lang’s crosshairs due to the exposure of the R&D building incident.
Xing Shu was summoned to go to the top floor for a meeting in the afternoon. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she heard people gossiping.
“The media seems to have captured Ms. Jin Yue, right? When did she return to the country?”
“Did you see the Buddhist bracelet on Jin Yue’s wrist? It’s exactly the same as the President’s—a couple’s design.”
“I heard that the President went to Ms. Jin Yue’s research institute personally.
It seems like he wants to invest in the project that Miss Jin Yue is involved in.”
“I didn’t expect someone like the President to spend so much money on a woman.”
“It depends on which woman it is. Which part of Miss Jin Yue isn’t outstanding? She and the President are childhood sweethearts.”
The chin-wagging got increasingly louder, and the tone of their voices became increasingly excited. Cheng Lang had never been involved in any scandals, and he had been of few words in interviews with the financial newspapers. Many female celebrities in the entertainment industry wanted to get up close and personal with Cheng Lang, but had no way in at all. Their counterparts in the Beijing social circle fared the same and could not even get a contact number.
The corners of Xing Shu’s mouth slowly flattened at the gabfest. She rarely paid attention to entertainment news. However, she could not help but take a gander at the news on her cell phone—there was nothing about Cheng Lang on the news; only a side profile of Jin Yue. She was raising her hand to brush her hair behind her ear, revealing the Buddhist bracelet on her wrist.
Xing Shu put away her cell phone and pursed her lips without batting an eyelid as she sat in her seat. Cheng Lang had yet to arrive, and the directors were talking much louder, especially Cheng Gang. Cheng Gang—who should have been dismissed—had returned while Cheng Lang was on a business trip. Among the directors were Cheng Lang’s two brothers. Everyone pulled a long face, but Cheng Gang was thick-skinned enough to show the project in his hand on the big screen. “Alpha has been established for many years. Yesterday, their President contacted me and asked if Cheng Corporation Group was willing to invest. I looked at the information and felt that this is a very promising project.”
Cheng Gang was indeed thick-skinned. Even though he knew that everyone present pulled a long face and did not like his return, they could not say anything on account of Old Master Cheng..
