Chapter 63 - Becoming A CEO Part 1

Later that day, Shen Xia was met with a scholarly-looking old man. "Miss Shen, My Name is Di. Master Shen has asked me to assist you today with the signing over of the companies to you. The car is waiting so we can leave when you are ready." 

"Alright then, let's head out." Shen Xia picked up Spot, who was next to her, and got up from the couch. She did not plan to come back right away as she wanted to go to both companies to see the facilities.

The ride to the hotel they were going to was only an hour's drive. Heaven's Gate Hotel was one of the most expensive hotels in the city and only served the filthy rich. Shen Xia, with Di following behind her, walked in only to be stopped when someone called out to her. "Xiaxia!" 

Hearing the voice of a man who was using a disgusting way of calling out to her caused Shen Xia to gag as she turned to see Shen Chen walking up to her. "What are you doing here? Are you here to see Mr. Mo and Mr. Yun? Do you want to have a bite to eat with me?"

"Why would I want to talk to anyone who kicked me out of the family? Shen Chen, I hope you realize your actions only make you look like a fool." Shen Xia's killing intent started to leak out, causing Shen Chen's face to pale. He couldn't understand how his niece had changed so much in just a few days. This change seemed too sudden! It only seemed strange to him because he did not seem to understand what it meant to be a pure-blooded nine-tailed fox. After their first mating season, they would mature much more. Of course, this did not mean Shen Xia was a completely different person. In fact, she was still the same old person, but her will to kill was now much higher than before. Her thought process was not as human as it used to be. The instinct of self-preservation was something that filled her now. If she saw someone as a threat, it was better to kill them and get rid of them than to leave them alone. 

But these were all good changes for someone like Shen Xia, who was someone who had to walk the path of darkness now that she was no longer human. She looked at the sweat forming on Shen Chen's brow and sneered as she walked away. Even Di, who had been at Shen Yi's side for many, many years, had never seen Shen Chen so defeated before. Di knew Shen Chen as a man who was pushy and would not easily give in. But on this day, just one look from the young miss was enough to make him stand there in fear without being able to say anything back.

As Shen Xia left and the killing intent faded away, Shen Chen finally let out a gasp of air as he looked at his nieces retreating back. He really couldn't understand why she was so powerful all of a sudden! "I can't let things end like this..." 

Clenching his fists, Shen Chen quickly gave chase, but he only got as far as the entrance to the restaurant before two guards walked over and blocked him.  "CEO Shen, I must ask you to turn around. This area is off-limits." 

"Off Limits!? My niece just walked through here! How come she can go in, but I can't?" Shen Chen yelled. He didn't understand! Why was the niece he threw away so capable now!?

"CEO Shen, when you become the head of a multi-billion dollar company, you too can enter, but until then, please turn around. Do not make us embarrass you by throwing you out." The guard replied with a mocking smile on his face. He watched as Shen Chen's face turned bright red with anger before storming off. "Humph! Someone like him will never be able to get close to our mistress..." 

Shen Chen had no idea that the building he was currently in was owned by the Vorn family. And that Shen Xia was already married to the head of the Vorn, family Kable Vorn. If he knew, he would try even harder to get on Shen Xia's good side.

As Shen Xia walked into the dining room, she saw two old men sitting at a table arguing away with each other. "Damn you old man, you are trying to upstage me already before she even gets here! I thought we said we would play fair and square!" 

"Humph! This old man will never play fair with you, you old scheme bastard. Don't think I do not know that you are sitting on a box right now trying to hide it from me!" Old Mo yelled out.

"Hah! What… Xiaxia!" As soon as Old Yun saw Shen Xia, he quickly turned his upside-down frown right side up. "Come sit! We have yet to order. You must be hungry, right? Someone come and take my granddaughter's order!" 

"Yes, come take OUR granddaughter's order." Old Mo was not going to be left out!

"Grandpa Mo, Grandpa Yun, you do not need to fight. You are now both my grandpas, so make sure you get along alright?" Shen Xia said with a smile as she walked over. 

"Hah! Xiaxia, you're kidding this old man. How do we not get along? We are like twins, always attached at the hip. We get along perfectly." Old Mo tried to smooth things over. 

"Yes, yes. This old bas-man and I are like twins." Old Yun quickly followed up. 

Shen Xia chuckled, seeing the obvious streaks of lighting shooting out of the two's eyes. Shen Xia turned and introduced Di: "This here is Di, my lawyer. He will help me with all the complicated stuff." 

"Ahh, the notorious Di. One of the legends in the world of law. I have heard you are like a demon when it comes to legal things. " Old Mo commented.

"You think too highly of me. I just try to do the best job I can."  Di replied humbly. 

"Come sit.. We will sign papers after we eat."
