บท 28: Love Is Not Treacherous, Trust Is

Xu Mey left the house in a hurry earlier in the morning. She was busy for most of the day with investors from Paris. She spent 3 hours of heated discussion with her own board of directors after the investors left.

She was a capable President and she already proved that to everyone in the company. No one had the courage or basis to question her authority. Once she made her stance clear, there was no room for discussion left anymore.

The deal with the CoCo Jewels was not only vital but also imperative. Fu Corporations had a subsidiary known as Jade Stones which was under Fu Lan's command but she gave it to her daughter Xu Liqing. On the surface, Xu Liqing was behind the success but in reality, there was an entire team of professionals dealing with the company's crisis.

Destroying Fu Lan would have been easy if only she didn't have the support of her paternal grandfather and his company. 'A journey of a thousand miles begins at one's feet.' That's exactly what Xu Mey learned in her life.

Before invading the Xu Corporation, she needed to cut off Fu Lan's support. The idea of destruction involved ruining Fu Corporations and taking over Xu Enterprises. It wasn't easy but Xu Mey never liked the easy things in life.

The President's office in Vintage Gems was a sight to behold. It was not an office, it was a work of art. The combination of sky blue non-transparent glass with novelty pendant style led lights hanging from the ceiling gave it a modern and contemporary look.

The beautiful paintings hung on one side of the office giving it an intense artistic feel. Xu Mey was sitting on her revolving chair, spinning it like a four-year-old. The ringtone of her phone made her halt her spinning exploit.

Upon seeing the caller ID 'Private Number', a faint smile appeared on her cherry blossom-like lips. "Konichiwa, Sensei![1]" She said in a bright and cheery tone.

"Why are you upset?" Came an alluring but calm voice from the other side.

"Sensei, I'm not upset... I'm talking in such a cheery tone." She argued.

"Mey Ai[2], you're the person who loves to talk in a cheery way when you're trying to hide your broodiness." The voice was still calm and composed with a hint of doting.

"Sensei... Do you think someone can make a place in a heart which doesn't have a place to spare?" Xu Mey asked in a serious way.

"Hmm... It depends on the person who is trying to take the place."

"Doesn't it depend on the person whose heart already belongs to someone else? If he's not even willing to give a single spot in his heart to another person, how can he give his entire heart to someone else?"

"If I knew how to laugh, I would have definitely laughed at this moment, Mey-Mey." There was amusement in this voice. "There is nothing one can't take unless he doesn't want to. If you're willing to take someone's heart, that person won't defy you."

"Sensei, some people are buried deep in a heart. It's not that easy."

"My dear student, when it comes to love, it's never too late or too early. A heart is very capricious. One's sincere endeavors can shake the heaven much less a fickle heart. Unless someone is keeping his love immersed in his soul. Because we can perturb a heart, the soul is not be messed with." The calmness of the voice could make a person instantly fall in love with the owner of it.

"But sensei, why is it not possible to mess with a soul?" She asked in a low voice.

There was silence for a while on the other side. Then she heard a faint sigh. "My dear student, Soul is scary. We lose the purpose of our existence with it. An empty shell is not worth much."

Xu Mey nodded in understanding, feeling at ease. The person she called 'Sensei' had the ability to provide her with reassurance. Sensei's words which she referred to as 'words of wisdom' always helped her in life. She didn't remember when it happened but this person was someone she could depend on. Because this person was the only one in her life who never asked for anything in return.

She still remembered the words said to her, "Life is on a lease. It's a loan, one has to pay it back at a specified time."

Coming back to the present, she heard the same calming voice again, "Someone's been probing in your life a lot recently."

Xu Mey quirked her brows thinking about Ye Jie. Didn't she tell him not to do anything? Now, he is not even respecting her wishes.

"Before you conclude it to be your husband and go out to kill him. Hear me out." Xu Mey listened attentively. "It was your husband's people at first but they stopped about half a month ago. The people looking into your activities now are different."

"Who are they?"

"It's your step-mother's loyal dogs." A killing intent flashed through her dark orbs. "I almost forgot to ask, do you know that your husband has connections with Wayne?"

"Wayne Chu?" She asked.

"Yup... That's the one." The familiar voice replied.

"I didn't know about it." Xu Mey fell into thought. A noble son of a noble household has links with underworld? Does that even make sense?

"Try to avoid Wayne, he might recognize you." It was a piece of cautionary advice.

"I know, Sensei... I'll be cautious."

"Mey-Mey, if you need me to help you just give me a call. After all, 'An old broom has its value.'"

Xu Mey burst into laughter at that saying. "Sensei, Senior brother already told me that you're younger than me. When did you become an old broom?"

She heard awkward dry-coughing from the other end making her laugh even more. "Your Senior Brother really needs to seal his lips... But anyways, you know very well, I can take the revenge you so desire with a flick of my finger."

"Sensei, I told you before, I won't feel at ease unless I'm the one to take what's mine. You're the one who taught me 'The person who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.'" Her voice was resolute.

"Take care of yourself, Mey-Mey."

"I will."

"Mey Ai!"

"Yes."

"Love is not treacherous, trust is..." The call disconnected after these words leaving Xu Mey in deep contemplation.

[1]: (Hello, Teacher!)

บท 29: She's One Of Those People

Xu Mey spent an hour thinking about 'Love is not treacherous, trust is.' She was trying to understand whether Sensei asked her to not love Ye Jie until he gains her trust or to love him without any trust? This skepticism was making her dizzy. She only drank the smoothie in the morning and now her stomach was growling in protest.

She was going to order the food but decided against it. She hated eating all alone. In all these years, she perceived one thing; eating without any company makes you feel the loneliest person alive. Instead of you eating the food, it gives the impression that loneliness is eating you whole.

She thought for a moment, Wu Wang and Lin Shen worked in City T. Jun Li Na was too chatty for her to bear. He Jian was on a business trip. That left only Li Qiao.

She wore her leather jacket before wearing the helmet. Her Suzuki Hayabusa, the fastest motorbike in the world was like her baby. She didn't like cars very much but bikes were her love. Other than loving the speed, she also loved the fact that it served as a way to hide her identity. There was no news or photos available of President Xu because who would expect a President to ride on a bike to her office?

She reached at Lotus Entertainment's building in 10 minutes and drove straight to the underground car parking. Most people in Lotus Entertainment knew Xu Mey. They didn't know who she was but they definitely knew that she had some kind of a relationship with President Li.

She didn't have the access code for the private elevator in the parking. She rarely came and whenever she did, Li Qiao's personal assistant Ms. Kim was always waiting for her. Today, she was dropping by unannounced. She wanted to surprise him but who knew she'd be the one to get surprised instead.

She passed the reception without any hitch but at the next turn, a blind bimbo bumped into her. The blind bimbo had a cup of coffee in her hand which was oh so conveniently spilled on Xu Mey's clothes along with her own.

"Aiyo! Are you blind? Can't you see? You ruined sister Yana's dress. It's a branded dress from Phantom's limited collection series. You need to compensate for the damage." The girl beside the blind bimbo which seemed to be her assistant gave Xu Mey a look over. Xu Mey's clothes were not branded. She didn't like wearing branded clothes. They were a hassle to her.

She always dressed up simply but decently. But the assistant's face held a look of disdain and contempt seeing her not so worthy clothes. So what if she had a pretty face? Clothes make a person.

Xu Mey looked at the blind bimbo and recognized her to be Yana Mo. She was the artist Lotus Entertainment signed last year poaching her from Spark Entertainments. She was pretty with decent acting level. Xu Mey didn't have any interest in movies or dramas which is why she didn't know much about Yana Mo.

"Feng, don't be so rude. This miss doesn't seem like she can compensate for this expensive dress." Her voice was soft like a breeze. "Look, Miss, why don't you just apologize to me on your knees and we can forget this matter."

"You want me to apologize and that too on my knees?" Xu Mey snickered. "Are you worth it?"

"See sister Yana, people like this b*tch won't appreciate your sympathy for them. They don't deserve it." The assistant raised her hand to slap Xu Mey but her wrist was caught by Xu Mey. They were a lot of people gathered around them whispering around.

Under the watchful eyes, Xu Mey twisted the assistant's arm making her scream in pain. When Xu Mey wasn't paying any attention to Yana Mo, she tried to push her down. Being caught unguarded, Xu Mey took a few steps back involuntarily but before she could lose her footing, her back bumped into a broad chest and a strong arm snaked around her waist keeping her steady.

Xu Mey looked up at the man's face to see the familiar eyes staring back at her with concern. "You okay?" He asked in a low voice. Xu Mey nodded in reply.

Upon seeing Li Qiao, Yana Mo and her assistant came running towards him. "President Li, this women ruined the dress which company provided for my movie premiere and refused to compensate for it as well." Yana Mo was busy being pitiful with teary eyes which is why she failed to see the way Li Qiao held Xu Mey at his side. The anger in Li Qiao's eyes was flaring but no one noticed except for Xu Mey and his assistant, Kim. "She's so evil. She even injured my assistant."

"Are you done?" Li Qiao asked impatiently with a cold look. Yana Mo nodded meekly. "Then pack your stuff." With that sentence, he directed Xu Mey to his private elevator. Xu Mey looked at the baffled Yana Mo and passed a smug smile to her.

Yana was so angry that she dug her nails in her palms piercing them. "Ms. Yana Mo, Lotus Entertainment is canceling the contract with you. Our lawyers will contact you shortly." Secretary Kim walked away after saying her piece.

Yana Mo ran after her like a lunatic and held her wrist as she begged. "Sister Kim, please don't do this. Help me placate President Li somehow." Her tears were flowing freely.

"I heard a saying once, 'There are some people in this world, we should not mess with'." Secretary Kim escaped her clutches and added, "The one you just offended is one of those people." She left a crying wide-eyed Yana Mo before following her boss.
