บท 40: Hiding from a terrorist together !

Xi Yuan was a very calm and collected man . It was very rare for him to vent his anger in an extreme manner .

But today , he was not himself . Instead , he had a dangerous aura surrounding him which sent chills running down a person's spine .

" Why the hell was i not informed about the investments in this branch three years ago ? And who allowed you guys to include politicians in business . Xi Corps has become nothing but another path for them to earn money ! Who dared to mess up things between politics and business ?! " ; Xi Yuan asked in a loud and bone-chilling voice .

The shareholders' backs involuntarily stiffened when they heard the man's voice .

Even Xi Fang and Xi Ying shuddered when they heard their brother's tone .

Bro , you really don't need to be so scary !

Can you show some mercy to these people !

They are mere mortals , not business gods like you !

Alas !

There was no point telling him that .

He was a ruthless and despicable man , when it came to matters related to business .

He hated it the most when people evinced lack of dedication and constant losses .

No matter how softspoken and diplomatic speech he had , he still was a strict Big Boss of the Business world .

Xi Yuan was losing his patience as the shareholders kept their mouth shut .

He said word to word in an intimidating tone , " I said who the hell took the decision of mixing business with politics ? "

Just when the shareholders were stressed about what to answer the devil in front of them , his phone rang .

His phone was connected to the system of the meeting room . So , when he picked up the call, it was audible to everyone in the room .

Xi Yuan said angrily , " Hello ! Who the hell is this ?"

"Um .... Sorry Yuan . I didn't mean to disturb you . I 'll call you later " , the girl's apologetic voice came from the other end.

As soon as the Xi twins heard the voice of their sister-in-law , they felt relieved.

Yay ! We are rescued !

Sister-in-law is here !

Meanwhile , the shareholders were stunned to hear the melodious voice of a woman from big boss's phone.

She even called him by his name !

And that too so intimately !

There was no woman they knew who dared to address boss like that !

Who was she ?!

Xi Yuan quickly disconnected his mobile and said to the girl in an extremely gentle tone , " I am extremely sorry . Its just ... i was going through some paperwork with my employees....and .....i...."

Rong Xinghe quickly cut him off , " No ! It is alright , Yuan . This happens with me a lot . Bro Lu and Bro Zhi are used to me disturbing me in the middle of their meetings .HEHEHE... But i should've checked your schedule first . "

"Meeting or not , you can call me even in the middle of the night . Understood ? " , Xi Yuan said seriously .

Listening this , all the shareholders were stunned !

Who was this lady whom boss would allow to disturb him even in the middle of night ?!

Could it be .....

Rong Xinghe didn't knew why , but she felt warmth spreading in her heart when he said that.

" Okay , understood. I simply wanted to tell you that i am nearby Xi Corps' main building." , Rong Xinghe said with a hidden meaning behind her words.

"So ? " , Xi Yuan was a bit confused .

" So i thought you would invite me for a coffee if you knew i was here . Right ? " , the girl told her real motive shamelessly.

Xi Yuan giggled when he realised that she was self-inviting herself for a coffee , "Okay , send me your location , i will reach there right away " .

This smile on boss's face further shocked the employees.

They had never seen him smile !

Female shareholders couldn't help but give treat to their eyes by looking at him.

What a handsome man!

Wait !

Did he just say he would pick her up right now ?

Were they all saved ?!

Was this lady their ' knight in shining armour' ?

Xi Yuan ended the call and looked at the shocking faces.

" Meeting dismissed ! " , the man said as he walked out of the conference room .

Holy hell !

He actually let them off the hook , just to meet her ?

Did the boss had actually got a lady in his heart ?!

Were they going to have a 'lady boss' soon ?!

He was so angry just now !

Yet , she easily extinguished his anger in the blink of an eye !

He was so cold and distant just now !

Yet , he became so gentle when he spoke to her !

Just who was this lady ?!

Just who was their 'saviour' ?!

....

Meanwhile ,

Xi Yuan reached in a local cafe to find a girl sitting alone.

She was fidgetting with a pebble as she looked outside the window .

In the dark cafe , the bright sunrays touched her skin and made her look like she had just came out of a painting.

She looked so serene and beautiful that his heart almost stopped beating for a moment as he saw her.

He took out his phone and clicked her photo .He simply wanted to capture this moment .

"Hey ! What's up ? " , the man said as he went to sit with her.

"Hi ! " , the girl smiled , " Nothing much , i was just hiding , so , i thought i could use some company ! "

"Hiding ? From whom ? " , Xi Yuan asked .

" Um..... a terrorist . He wants to kill me ! But i am not in any mood to die ! He is roaming around here in search of me . I don't have my revolver right now , and i don' t want to fight empty handed either . Hah , what a lazy person i am ! So , i thought i will spend time with my love....my coffee ....But i don't have cash , just card . And this shop doesn't accept that. So , I thought about you as you were nearby . " , the girl explained .

Hmmm... That explained why she selected this isolated , old and local cafe .

And it seemed that she loved to drink coffee and tea . She always selected cafés to hang out , no matter , whether she was in a male diguise or her own self look .

" No mood to die ? ", Xi Yuan raised his eyebrows .

Wasn't that a little weird thing to say ?

" Yep !"

Xi Yuan was even more amused by her . What a fascinating girl .

He was more than happy to accompany her in hiding from terrorists !

If he could be by her side and spend time with her !

" By the way , did i told you how scary you sounded on the phone . Okay , tell me , why were you upset when i called you ?" , Rong Xinghe asked .
