Chapter 29 - Drag her out

Chapter 29 - Drag her out

"Xiu Mei, long time no see. How have you been?"

’Very good, until you came.’

Was what Xiu Mei had wanted to say. However, the words in her mind was completely the opposite of what was coming out of her mouth.

"I’m good, thank you Ms.Linda. Congratulations by the way. I saw in the news that you recently won an award in The Fashion Awards this years." She flashed her usual polite and business smile as she slowly laid down the papers back on her lap.

Linda Yang, a veteran fashion designer, was one of the best white lotus actress she had ever met. Meaning by white lotus, she was so great in acting so innocent, and making other people feel like she was often being bullied.

Many had fell victim in her hands, including Xiu Mei. She really couldn’t forget that day years ago, when she had just started her internship under Lu Chen’s wing. Just like other women, their eyes preyed on Lu Chen who was currently in the middle of talking with some other businessmen in the party.

Being his intern secretary, she was brought as his partner for the partner. Even though she had tried not to show it, she was in completely nervous on the inside. It wasn’t her first time attending such event, but she had attended the parties before as the daughter of from the Xiu family. But right now, she was Lu Chen’s secretary. She had to be cautious and maintain the image of the company especially in external events like this.

It was there where she met Linda Yang. At first, she were all acting nice while talking at her but the more time they spent talking, Xiu Mei finally noticed her weirdness. Most of the topics they were talking about was about her president, like collaborating for some work or events and something along those lines.

But what was weird that she was trying to play her words. She was discreetly asking her some personal information regarding her president. Unfortunately for her, even Xiu Mei didn’t know so much details about Lu Chen at that point in time.

Realizing that the person she had been talking to was useless, Linda Yang decided to go on a full force attack on the target. A few hours later, Xiu Mei was rang by Lu Chen to quickly come up to his room.

If it were some other female, they would already be doubting why a man would call a woman to come up to his room during midnight. Xiu Mei however, knew that Lu Chen wasn’t such man. And no, she wasn’t talking about him being decent and a gentleman. But rather it was the tone of voice Lu Chen was using when he had called her.

After working with him for a few weeks, she knew he was man of few words. He would never speak in more then two sentences unless it’s about work. He would always be in his office, and after speaking a few instructions, he would return to working on his doc.u.ments.

But when he had called her just now, it was the first time Lu Chen had spoken to her the longest on the phone. Along with that was his tone of irritation blended with anger. It sounded like he would instantly fire her if she was late even by a second in coming to his room.

Xiu Mei immediately complied, quickly changing her clothes into something more proper before coming to his room. Upon sliding the card key, the door made sound before she twisted the door knob to open.

Xiu Mei was flabbergasted the moment she laid her eyes on the scene in front of her. She didn’t know if she should cover her eyes or be wide-eyed instead. There, she saw Lu Chen still in his business suit however, it was the complete opposite of the neat and composed Lu Chen. His tie was almost undone, the suit was all with creases and the top buttons of his white shirt was unbuttoned. Basically, he looked really untidy. He was sitting in the sofa in the corner part of the room, as his face was dimmed with rage.

It actually felt like Lu Chen was going to swing the leaf sculpture on the center table at the person lying in the center of his bed.

Her sight shifted to the figure on the bed. It was a very familiar female, except she was n.a.k.e.d and on her cheeks was some blood dripping. It seems like it was slashed with something sharp. She stared back at the man at the corner of the room, fear evident in her eyes. This was Linda Yang, one of the many people she spoke with back in the party.

"Drag her out."

"Understood." Xiu Mei pulled out her phone to dial some of the bodyguards that was staying at the opposite hotel. Lu Chen usually brings some bodyguards with him during events like this, and he would have some extra people that would stay outside for security.

The moment she had seen that empty hallway, she knew something had gone wrong. There were always at least two people guarding by the door of the presidential suite Lu Chen was staying in, but this time, she did not see even a shadow of a person. She faintly smelled some weird fragrance in the air thus, she had automatically covered her nose.

And seeing the circ.u.mstances inside the room, she immediately understood who was the mastermind behind this. Ah, to think that something this trivial got past to Lu Chen’s security, it seems like all of them will be fired.

It only took a few minutes when Lu Chen’s men came in the suite floor. They immediately dragged the n.a.k.e.d female out of the bed. Xiu Mei immediately handed the bedsheet to one of those bodyguards to throw to Linda Yang. After all, they would also be spurned by the public if they had really thrown Linda Yang out there in her n.a.k.e.d glory.

That would completely tarnish their company’s image and it would be really a problem.

Understanding Lu Chen’s mind, she went to the reception along with the bodyguards who were manhandling Linda Yang. The moment they exited the elevator, everyone’s focus were on them.

Who wouldn’t be?

A woman and a bunch of guys were walking in cl.u.s.ter with a female apparently only covered in bedsheet. The bodyguards already knew what to do with the female so Xiu Mei walked straight to the reception desk to have Lu Chen’s room completely changed.

The incident wasn’t exactly done in secret especially Linda Yang is one of the high profiled people in the fashion world.
