41 Sweeter Than Sweetness (2/2)
”Hey! Where are you….. Hey! Stop….”
Without saying a word Lei Xinyi walked further. As she was one step away from the CEO's office, Jiang Qinqin grabbed her arm and pushed her backward.
Neither was Jiang Qinqin grip tight enough to hold her nor was Jiang Qinqin push strong enough but instead Lei Xinyi fell to the floor deliberately and let out a scream.
Hearing the scream Assistant Ji came running out of his office. As he saw Lei Xinyi on the floor sobbing with a tears strained face, he was shocked to his core. He let out a curse and without wasting a single second he went to call the CEO.
”Assistant Jiang, it is not what you…” Jiang Qinqin desperately tried to stop him. It had never gone out of her hands like this.
'But she didn't have to worry CEO Li favored her, he liked her. He would definitely not cause her harm because of this peasant.' Jiang Qinqin thought.
Li Yuan was in a middle of a conference, hearing what Assistant Ji reported, he felt anger churning his insides. How dare anybody lay a hand on her, she was his woman, Li Yuan's woman. Nobody but he had the right to rejoice her or hurt her.
As Li Yuan face became contoured with anger, the Directors in the room started sweating. Without a word he left the meeting leaving them to thank GOD, they were not the receivers of his fury.
It was not how he wanted things to turn out. He wanted Lu Xinyi to get angry and show her real self to him and then he wouldn't have to act as a kind and gentle man either.
He would have then revealed her as the daughter of the Lu Family and his fiancé and the scandal would have been over and they could have build something between them….
As Li Yuan reached the secretariat, he saw Lei Xinyi sobbing and hiccupping on the floor. He felt the rage he had never felt before. Looking at her in that state pitiful state he wanted to torture the culprit to death.
Getting closer Li Yuan got down to her level and pulled the hand covering her face, ”Xinyi, I am here. Who did this?” Li Yuan asked with hardly suppressed rage. He wasn't smiling like he usually was. Neither was he trying to suppress his aura. Today he wanted people to remember who he was.
And whose woman have they hurt...
As Lei XInyi saw Li Yuan she threw herself at him and started sobbing and hiccupping on his chest and circled her arms around his waist a little too intimately, ”L…. Li Yuan, everyone is so….sniff…..bad. I jus….Just wanted to see y… You bef…before I left. I….I will ne….never come back….sob sob”
