Chapter 147 - Hire An Investigator

"Get off my face! Pervert!" she yells and punches him right across his face. He goes flying to the opposite couch where he sat earlier. 

Evelyn's heart is beating fast and harder but she didn't let herself get lost in that moment. "I can't believe you are the CEO!" she barks and immediately leaves the room, shutting the door from her behind. 

Junjie is still settling on the couch with his arm slung over the head of the couch and there's blood dripping from his nose. That damn woman had punched him hard! He thinks to himself. He touches his nose gently and sees the blood in his finger. He curses, muttering whatever curse word he knows. 

He did not expect she would punch him but as much as he is angry he sure is amused. He has met various types of women but Evelyn is the first who has the guts to punch him and also to resist his charm. He thought he would get the kiss but unfortunately, he didn't get that. 

He finds her attractive, a hell lot when he first saw her at the club. And when she spoke, he was captivated. He never was this enchanted by a woman before. Women are like clothes for him. If he doesn't like them, he will throw them. 

He should hate her but he cannot bring himself to. He should be canceling their proposal right away when she gave him a cold shoulder but the more she acted that way, the more he finds her attractive and unable to detest. 

He is now sure of one thing that he is going to see her again because the proposal is accepted and there is no way he letting this chance slip away from him. 

He, for the first time, find something that interests him and wants to pursue that, so he will do whatever it takes to see where it goes and what is it that makes him want to be close to her.

Shi Lian has made her mind to disclose her uncle's truth with proper evidence. Yesterday, she contacted an investigator who will keep an eye on Mo Zheng Yi. It was thanks to Xiaoxiao, who gave her his number. Shi Lian was curious to know how she has his number but she stops herself from asking that. 

She called him yesterday and at first, she thought it was wrong but then she recalls what her uncle did to her. She was then determined to go any limit to get evidence. 

The investigator named Xu Duan was a tough nut. He asked her numerous question, some of which were out of the topic but Shi Lian didn't say anything to that. After two hours, he finally agreed. 

He informed her that he will be notifying Mo Zheng Yi's moves for the whole day and send her through email. 

Shi Lian is now in her office, calling one of the hackers she knows in America. Maxwell is the best hacker she knows and also because he is her friend. She dials his number and waits for him to pick it up. She is glad she has his number. 

She tries again because he does not pick on the first try. On the second try too, his call goes straight to voicemail. Shi Lian thinks maybe he is busy so she left him a message. 

"Hey Maxwell, this is Shi. I hope you remember me and I am calling you because I need your help. It's urgent. Give me a call back when you get this."

She then put her phone aside and continue doing the paperwork. She is getting frustrated because JJ is getting out of hand. He is acting odd. She won't know if he was like this when her father used to work. She is thinking to ask her father about what to do because firing him is a big decision. He is the CEO after all and he has been working here for almost seven years. 

She sighs and does the rest of the work. As she is writing the documents, her phone rings. She peeks at the phone and sees Evelyn's name. 

She picks the call and says, "Hey, how was your first company experience?"

Shi Lian expects to get cheery words from her saying it was good and she aces it but instead Evelyn groans, "It sucked! I shouldn't have come."

"What happened?" Shi Lian asks confused and curious at the same time. 

"The meeting was set at Fu International and I had no idea who is the boss or who worked in that company" she speaks, anger radiating from the other line, "The boss Mr. Fu was supposed to be attending the meeting but instead he sent the CEO and to my worst nightmare, the guy I met at the club was the CEO!"

Shi Lian does not know that the meeting is with Zichen. If she had known, she would have at least told Zichen to attend it for her sake. 

Evelyn continues, "How irresponsible the boss is! He knows he has a meeting with us but went to another fucking country showing that he has no respect for us!"

"Calm down" Shi Lian tries to soothe her hothead friend. "Did you know by any chance that Mr. Fu, the boss is Fu Zichen, the man you met at the beach? The asshole who lied to me?" she informs, laughing as she says. 

Shi Lian can sense Evelyn gasping. "Oh god, for real? I seriously didn't know that. No wonder I felt the name familiar."

Shi Lian chuckles, "Yes he is the one. And who is the CEO?" Shi Lian is guessing that it might be Junjie because she heard from Zichen about him being the CEO. 

"Song Junjie. Damn Shi, that jerk tried to kiss me!" she expressed fuming with anger. 

Wow, this is something Shi Lian was not expecting to hear. "Really? What happened then?" she asks curiously. 

Evelyn huffs, "As if I would let him kiss me. I punched him on his face and ran from them."

Shi Lian cannot help but laugh. Knowing Evelyn, she isn't surprised she would do something like this. She is also curious how Junjie took that. 

Shi Lian wonders and asks her, "What about the proposal then?"

Evelyn sighs, "I don't know. If he wants to cancel it then it's fine."

"Are you okay with that? What will Aunt Leng say?"

"I'll tell her what happened after the meeting and I am sure she will understand" Evelyn answers on the other line. 

Shi Lian also supports her decision and ends the call after saying goodbye. She is thinking to give a call to Zichen but she is afraid of disturbing him. He informed her earlier that he will be going to Germany for a business meeting but he also said she can call him anytime. She doesn't want to disturb so she drops the idea. She can talk to him when he will come.
