Yao Yi came to greet them as soon as she spotted them coming inside. She was looking ecstatic and she said, "Xie Yuansheng, because of you I am a happy person. I know my hotel is going to be in the hands of a capable businessman."
Xie Yuansheng smiled and bowed a little. "Thanks for placing your trust in me Yao Yi."
"I have already signed the legal papers," she said as she guided them through the crowd to the main stage. A large crowd had gathered already and there was a lot of activity in the room. The crowd had staff that was originally from the hotel as well some new ones from Feng Company.
While walking she asked, "Xie Yuansheng, have you proposed to this beautiful girl yet?"
Xie Yuansheng's smile broadened. He said, "Well you have to ask her for me because she doesn't quite like me yet."
Yao Yi stopped and looked at Feng Xieying with a bewildered expression. She said, "Feng Xieying, is that true? Do you have someone in your mind? Because you won't find a better match than Xie Yuansheng."
Feng Xieying laughed as she looked at Yao Yi and said, "I have known him for three weeks only. You should give me more time Yao Yi."
"Oh! That is not a 'No' then!" exclaimed Yao Yi.
Feng Xieying blushed yet again.
Yao Yi said excitedly, "You see there are plenty of fish who would love to grab this tiger. They are waiting for his green signal. Do you want to see a demonstration?"
Feng Xieying instantly became alert. No more demos! She had seen them already! So she immediately answered, "No! I know that Xie Yuansheng doesn't have a paucity of girls who want to be his wife."
Yao Yi started laughing. Together they reached the center stage where Xie Yuansheng was taken by Yao Yi. Feng Xieying chose to stay down. Yao Yi took the mic and announced to everyone present over there, "Good even ladies and gentlemen. From next week onwards, this hotel will have the new ownership. Please welcome Xie Yuansheng as your new boss."
A loud applause broke into the hall. Xie Yuansheng smiled and took the mic that Yao Yi handed to him. He said, "Thank you all for being here. A new era starts and I hope you will take care of me." He bowed in front of the public and his eyes darted to Feng Xieying but he couldn't find her.
People started looking at him with a lot of enthusiasm. Most of them wanted to shake hands with him and so they had lined around the stage, pushing Feng Xieying in the background. Many young girls and boys were eagerly waiting for him to come down.
Xie Yuansheng got down from the stage and looked around for Feng Xieying but he was surrounded by so many people that he couldn't see where she was. He had to courteously shake hands with those present there. He tried to make his way out of the crowd but people won't let him go. They started introducing themselves. The young girls started fluttering their eyes and smiling at him, while the boys wanted to make conversation.
Lim Chen had also come for the party. When Xie Yuansheng was making the speech, Lim Chuen was standing by the bar, watching him. The hotel would have been his if Wang Zirong would have properly executed his plan. He looked at Feng Xieying who was standing and only looking at Xie Yuansheng. He eagerly awaited the report on her.
He had got his daughter along with him whom he had asked to stay near Xie Yuansheng as much as possible.
Xie Yuansheng got out of the crowd somehow and his eyes started searching for Feng Xieying frantically. He spotted her talking to few men and women and sighed a breath of relief. In his current condition, he just wanted her to stay with him, near him.
He accepted a glass of whiskey from the waiter and walked to her. "Where did you go?" he asked as soon as he reached. He took his hand on her back and stroked it lightly. "Stay with me," he said in an urgent tone.
Feng Xieying smiled and nodded. They continued to talk to the people there. Xie Yuansheng noticed from the corner of his eye that Lim Chuen had also come. He was walking towards them with his daughter Lim Fei Yen.
Xie Yuansheng already knew that in the past life Lim Chuen had been his enemy number one. But the fact that he held a large number of shares of the Feng company made him one of the strongest players in the field opposite Xie Yuansheng. The scary detail was that he wanted to own Feng Conglomerate. But in this life Xie Yuansheng had promised not to commit same mistakes. The company belonged to his wife and he would protect both the company and his wife.
When Lim Chuen came nearer, Xie Yuansheng held Feng Xieying's waist and brought her closer to him much to Lim Fei Yen's disappointment.
"Xie Yuansheng, how are you doing my boy?" said Lim Chuen in his usual style as soon as he came there, surprising Feng Xinying.
Lim Fei Yen smiled sweetly at him and said, "Xie Yuansheng, it has been a very long time since we have met. Where have you been?"
Hi all,
Thanks for all your support. Today 2 chapters for you:)
Please keep voting. If the novel reaches top 50, I will give a mass release of 5 chapters.
Feng Xinying's face darkened. She knew that Lim Fei Yen was a clingy girl who vied for attention and if attention wasn't given to her, she would throw tantrums. Also, the way she was looking at Xie Yuansheng, Feng Xinying already hated it. So when Xie Yuansheng pulled her closer to him, she willingly came closer.
Lim Fei Yen ignored Feng Xinying and continued to talk to to Xie Yuansheng. "Xiao Sheng, I am celebrating my mother's birthday party next week for which I will send you formal invite. You have to come," she said holding his hand as Lim Chuen watched the two of them.
Feng Xinying narrowed her eyes and said, "I am sorry but the CEO is very busy next week." Saying that she gently removed his hand from Lim Fei Yen's.
Xie Yuansheng agreed and said, "Sorry Lim Fei Yen, I can't. My secretary here knows my schedule the best. If she says I can't, then I really can't."
"What do you mean you can't?" asked Lim Fei Yen in a honeyed voice. "You can get your secretary also, if you like," she continued looking at Feng Xinying with distaste.
Xie Yuansheng was about to say something when Feng Xiying stopped him and said, "I will see if we can clear his schedule Miss Lim." This was the best way to ward her off thought Feng Xinying. She thought that now that girl would leave, but she didn't.
Lim Fei Yen again said, "Xie Yuansheng, come with me to the wine bar. Please select a wine for me. Today I will have wine selected by you only."
Feng Xinying sighed. "This girl won't go so easily," she thought exasperatedly.
"Lim Fei Yen, I am having whiskey. I don't think I am the right candidate for selecting wine for you," replied Xie Yuansheng very irritated by her.
"Come on, darling!" insisted Lim Fei Yen. "Just once."
Feng Xinying was beginning to hate that moron. She noticed a waiter passing by. She called him and picked a glass of white wine from there. Then forcefully, she handed the glass to Lim Fei Yen and said with a clenched smile, "Here, take this wine. How can you ask the CEO of the company to get wine for you? That's what the waiters do and not the CEO!"
Lim Fei Yen looked very annoyed and she wanted to hurl insult at her but Lim Chuen held her hand and signaled her to stay quiet. Then he coughed and said, "Can we men have some private business talk?"
Xie Yuansheng looked at Feng Xinying for help. He didn't want to talk to Lim Chuen. But Lim Fei Yen held Feng Xinying's hand and pulled her away saying, "Of course father. I will be right back."
Before Feng Xinying knew, she was being rudely pulled much to her embarrassment as the people watched them. Reluctantly, Feng Xinying had to go with her.
When they both were out of the ear-shots of Lim Chuen and Xie Yuansheng, Lim Fei Yen said, "So you are the new secretary? It seems that you have already started seducing Xie Yuansheng. But let me tell you one thing - people like you come and go in companies like ours. Finally CEOs like Xie Yuansheng marry rich girls like us. We have a very influential family and you are nothing but an ant in front of us. So keep your plans to yourself and don't even think of interfering. Trust me I will make sure that I will court Xie Yuansheng sooner or later, and the first person who I will throw out of the company would be you!" Saying that Lim Fei Yen gulped the entire wine in one go.
Feng Xinying laughed and replied, "You are right. I am just a secretary," and then went back to Xie Yuansheng immediately.
"Wait, where are you going?" asked Lim Fei Yen running after her.
But Feng Xinying didn't stop and stood right next to Xie Yuansheng who naturally placed his hand on her back. He started stroking it gently without realizing what he was doing. Feng Xinying looked at Lim Fei Yen and smiled as though flaunting their closeness.
Lim Chuen was in the midst of a sentence when they arrived. "I think it would be good idea to keep Lim Fei Yen as one of your managers' in your company. She will have a great head start under you Xie Yuansheng. She can manage all the secretaries under you."
"No way!" Feng Xinying thought.
"A manager of secretaries? That's the first time I have heard of someone managing the secretaries. There is a head secretary who takes care of all secretaries. I am sorry but we already have a large number of secretaries around the CEO. We can't have more," said Feng Xinying looking at Xie Yuansheng innocently fluttering her eyes.
Xie Yuansheng melted there and then. He nodded and said, "Yes..."
Feng Xinying smiled at him and then looked at Lim Fei Yen, who was already gritting her teeth.
All of a sudden, they heard Yao Yi's voice, "What is my little angel doing without wine? Here take some," she said and handed a large glass to Feng Xinying.
Xie Yuansheng whispered in her ear, "Drink it, you will feel good."
Surprise chapter for today:)
