CHAPTER 187

On the other hand, Liu Xueyi who had kept a close watch on her got all the information needed for him to figure out within himself what plans Andromeda had for the company.

Without being told he instantly picked up a guess that she was making Wu Bai suffer when he heard that they were releasing another new line.

To make matters splendid it was a limited edition.

He had just finished up his work for the day and decided to pay her a visit when his phone rang, drawing his attention to it.

He leaned forward to check the caller and to his amazement, he found an august visitor calling him.

His eyes remained agape in pure and utter surprise.

There was no way he would think that would be the case but considering the secret happenings that had happened in the company recently, it was easy for him to guess.

Taking the call, Liu Xueyi settled back on his seat and greeted politely, "Good afternoon father."

"Afternoon, Xueyi."

"Ah, someone is in a good mood today. Tell me, to what do I owe this pleasure you have given me today?"

"I guess you already have a pretty good idea about why I am calling."

'To some extent."

"Good, then I need an explanation," Liu Jinchen inquired of him.

"You wish to know the reason why we ordered so many materials from the warehouse on such short notice when the ones we placed orders for are still very much on the ground?"

"One."

"Okay. You also wish to know what Andromeda Kai is up to."

"Two."

"Thirdly, you are concerned about the news she asked to be released concerning the limited edition. Am I right?"

"Three."

Liu Xueyi furrowed his brows at nothing in particular. He had thought he explained everything to his father. Or better still had answered the question very well.

So why was he speaking now as though there was more?

Or was there more than what his informant had told him?

"You are confused right now, aren't you?" Liu Jinchen's cold voice pulled him out of his trance briefly.

"Huh?"

"Yes. I know you son."

A burst of subtle laughter rang out from Liu Xueyi's end of the phone. "Sure, you do. Anyways, that's all there is to know and I can answer them for you now."

"Is that so?"

"Yes."

"Then please do. I would not hold you back," Liu Jinchen coarse him.

"Okay, father. For the first one, she did so to stockpile some materials for us in times of need and who knows what skeptical plans Wu Bai has up his sleeve after his fashion show."

"You are not sure this is purely for revenge?"

"Both. I would not lie nor sugarcoat my words. She is doing both."

"To what end? What use is the releasing the said clothing line today?"

"Simple, we are stealing the spotlight and order from him."

"Hmm. What is her ultimate end? This is way more than revenge to take or keep your company at the top spot."

"Are you complaining? If you ask me, she is doing a great job. Now when she releases our new line later after theirs, plus the difference in materials, people would still flock towards us."

"I see you missed the most important part," Liu Jinchen continued, "Do not tell me you have not seen."

"Seen what?"

"Your woman released the clothing line for Estrella naciente's limited edition just now."

"Just… j-jus…" Liu Xueyi's voice trailed off in a stutter as his eyelashes blinked severally at the absurdity of the news he heard.

"Umm," he licked his lower lip, sitting properly as he tried to figure out what was going on.  "This is serious."

"Very. So, can you tell me what she is up to? That was what I expected you to say right from the start. This is the important news."

"I see. Brilliantly and she released it by this time. Splendid," Liu Xueyi muttered under his breath.

"You said?" Liu Jinchen squinted his eyes at his phone seated on his table with the speaker on.

"What are you muttering about, Liu Xueyi?"

"Huh?"

"Yes."

"Oh, nothing father. I think I have an idea."

"Spill," Liu Jinchen ordered hurriedly.

As much as he tried to hide it, he found Andromeda very interesting. And just like Liu Xueyi, he kept his eyes on her, having people report to him.

So, it was natural for him to get news faster than Liu Xueyi.

Also, he wished to figure out what she was doing and as much as they tried to keep watch on Andromeda, none of them knew exactly while she chose today to carry on her revenge.

It shows she loved trouble and called for it wherever she was.

More importantly, what was her gain when there was going to be a disruption?

His inability to pinpoint a definite answer seemed to irk him and make him also condole his son's lack of proper information and even the withholding.

"It is just my guess father. Why not watch and see?"

"Watch, and see? Do I look like you? I get my information faster than you do. Why wait when I can inquire/"

"You would ruin the surprise that way?"

"You do not get surprised," Liu Jinchen retorted in defence.

"Sigh. I would call her now to figure things out properly."

"Fine. If she needs to have a leash on to restrain her, then do. We cannot afford a fight right now after all the scandals and issues."

"No. I think she is prepared this time for the war she wishes to cause. Besides, I am backing her every move. She won't jeopardize anything and bring this company down. Trust me."

"Fine."

Liu Jinchen did not bother to waste his time speaking. He knew Liu Xueyi would not give him any information if he wished not to.

And from his discussion just now, he could tell his son neither knew exactly what Andromeda's plan was.

Yes, she was using them, their company and fashion line but for her daring attitude and Liu Xueyi's trust, he could tell it would be a big hit.

Regardless, he hated the fact that he was used and yet knew nothing.

"Andy, what exactly do you plan to do to Wu Bai?" Liu Xueyi muttered under his breath in a thoughtful manner as he stood up from his seat.

'I need to find out and protect her better. War would occur faster than I thought.'
