Cheng Lang nodded—rubbed his temples—and walked out of the bedroom. There were three meetings coming up; he was supposed to be there in person, but he stood all the senior management up last night. Cheng Lang’s eyes darkened. He must never make such a mistake again.

Meanwhile, at the Liu residence, Liu Xiangru did not immediately take action after receiving the news last night. She glanced at the full table of breakfast and sat down.

Liu Xiangru nodded and said unhurriedly, “I’ll contact Nie Heng when the other members of the Liu family ask me for help.” After all, this involved the President of Cheng Corporation Group—Cheng Lang. She did not have the reach and needed Nie Heng to step in. However, she could not help but frown. “Do you know why Feng Jian wanted to give Xing Shu the works? Did the two of them have a grudge?”

The servant thought for a while and hazard a guess. “Both of them work at
