THE CEO's LOVE - Chapter 174 - PUBLICLY GOING AFTER SOMEONE'S WOMAN

"Why do you look so dull?" Mei Han probed. "You had gone out to have fun yesterday but you look like someone that had a terrible nightmare." Mei Han frowned. "Did you see Fangxi in your dream?"

Xueyan smiled a bit. "What are you even saying?"

Mei Han had been trying to get her to speak and finally she did. Xueyan wasn't her normal usual cheerful self. And it worried her.

"I received an email," Mei Han made a face of thinking. "It's from your school..."

Xueyan was astonished. Her school had seized to exist after that incident. She knew that whomever did that was powerful and to cover his tracks they shot everything down.

The teachers disappeared into thin air. She had also heard the proprietress moved abroad with her lover...

Xueyan didn't know much, but Yuxi had tried tracking everyone from the school.

To think of it, Yuxi hadn't told her much and she had let it go because they were still young. And what kind of information would her junior sister have gotten?

"Xueyan?"

Xueyan came to and looked up at Mei Han as she was sitting and the latter standing.

"Did you hear me just now?"

Xueyan shook her head. "I was deep in thought."

"Oh, I meant from your classmates. On the night of the drama premier, they want to meet up and have some fun."

Xueyan frowned. Almost all of her classmates had joined acting so it was easy to get everyone else contact but she didn't want to go.

She had an ominous feeling.

Xueyan whiled away time on the possibilities of what might happen to her.

Qiangshen walked to her from behind. "Xueyan let's talk."

Xueyan whom wasn't totally overwhelmed by her thinking turned to meet him.

"About what?"

"Last night,"

She hadn't called him after Yuxi's action last night. He also didn't bother to call. Perhaps he was mad at her.

Xueyan shook her head to shake off that thought and it gave Qiangshen the wrong impression.

"Are you busy?" He asked, there was a hint of worry in his voice.

"No,"

"Outside?" He used his thumb to point behind where he had come from.

"Sure,"

Once they were outside, Qiangshen looked around to make sure no one was in sight before speaking. "Are you and Zhaolin planning on getting back together?"

Xueyan was taken aback. The question didn't relate to anything that happened last night.

"I know I shouldn't be asking you this, and if Zhaolin finds out he will be mad at me but please," he pleaded. "I need to know."

Planning on getting back together? He had been planning all by himself but now they were back, she had agreed. Hold on...

"How do you know about me and Zhaolin?"

Qiangshen looked like he had been caught stealing from the pot but he concealed it immediately. "What do you mean?" He chuckled softly. "Of course it had been from Yuxi. So I had paid more attention to you two."

She shrugged it off. "We are, why?"

The color on Qiangshen's face seemed to dim. Xueyan noticed it.

"Anything the matter?"

Qiangshen shook his head, and let out an awkward laugh. "That's not bad, but do you think you can..." He shook his head again. "For that, I was saying rubbish."

"If that is all, I'll like to get back inside."

"Zhaolin had fainted last night after you left with your sister."

The statement made Xueyan freeze.

"Xiangyang had said it was due to several headache and last night's own might have brought with it an impact..."

"Where's he?"

For real? She doesn't seem to understand her sister's reaction.

"He couldn't sleep all night, as he was having a nightmare... He always have them though. He had woken up at dawn and I had to leave together with Xiangyang while Shi... While the maids watched over him."

Shiya... Xueyan didn't miss that part. "I had no idea, I'll call him."

"I think your sister wants you to stay away from Zhaolin," he watched closely for her reaction.

"I can make my own decisions."

His lips pressed together in a thin line. She's determined, so is Yuxi.

While Yuxi had concocted her plans before hand, he had thought it was fate that brought them together.

He had always wondered why she was so cold to him, and gotten his answer the day he made a move on her.

She spited him, she spited them and above it all she spited Zhaolin the most but would smile at him . He didn't think she would be able to keep it in anymore.

"Have you met with Zhaolin's parents?"

Xueyan had just taken the first step when she heard him ask. "No?"

"Are they type we watch in dramas?" She asked when he didn't say anything else but watch her. "The type that throw money to the girl their son likes."

Qiangshen smiled unconsciously. "Some people are very sweet, you know?" He deeped his hands in his pants pockets. "Sweet that they can't hurt even an annoying fly."

Xueyan shrugged. "People like me."

Qiangshen watched her with his mouth open for a while before he started laughing. "I bet you are correct."

"I have met Sir Xing once, but on a basis of an employer and employee."

"Oh!" Does that mean he didn't recognize you? "Soon enough you will have to meet him as his potential daughter-in-law."

Xueyan rolled her eyes. "You're forgetting they already have one."

Now it was Qiangshen's turn to eye roll. "That's just a facade." He hissed at the thought of it. "My brother doesn't like her, everyone knows that. Even her family does, because he never gives them face. Don't allow the thoughts of Shiya bother you..."

Xueyan didn't say anything and only watched him.

"I think there must have been a reason for Yuxi's action last night, try and find out."

The back door was suddenly pushed open. Speaking of the devil. Qiangshen's hands folded in his pocket, she was giving him attitude for trying to stop her last night.

"Here you are," Yuxi folded her hands on her ċhėst. "The chairman is here and requesting to see you."

Qiangshen and Xueyan shared a look before he walked forward to go meet her.

Yuxi turned around and disappeared just like she had appeared.

I'm not the only one then... He turned to give Xueyan a reassuring smile before he disappeared through the door. She's mad at her sister too. Interesting.

"What is wrong with you? Why do you look so sick?"

Qiangshen sighed and dropped himself on the couch. "I'm not sick neither do I look like one."

"You should look at yourself first."

"I'm just tired."

"Tired from what?"

"Chu Feng." The chairman called to order. "That's enough."

Chu Feng hissed. He had left the country, and just returned. He had visited Du Xiujun first. Xiujun hadn't been home so he waited for five whole hours for his return.

Xiujun was worst, he looked nothing like himself.

He had headache from scolding Xiujun and the young man didn't say a single word to refute.

Chu Feng thought he would die from worry. If the president happens to meet him in that state, Xiujun wouldn't be the one to receive his wrath.

Ru Yichen was doing quite great.

Qiangshen was the lower version of Du Xiujun.

Where they trying to get him killed?

Qiangshen grandmother had helped him in pursuing his career, so she pain extra attention to him. Imagine being stuck in between two powerful people. The Xings, and the Dus...

The thought of that made Chu Feng want to give up in life.

"What is wrong with you?" The chairman came to sit beside Qiangshen on the couch. "You don't look too good."

How would he? Qiangshen thought.

"You have been slacking on your skin, it looks too dry. And your eyes too, there are eye bags."

He continued when Qiangshen didn't say anything. "Seems like miss Yuxi isn't taking proper care of you."

Qiangshen whom looked like he was tired of life suddenly sat up. "No, the only reason why I look distraught is because I had watched over my brother last night. Yuxi is doing just fine taking care of me."

"She doesn't look good either, seems your planned relationship didn't work." Chu Feng looked excited.

Qiangshen hissed. "We are doing just great."

"It's obviously a lie," Chu Feng didn't want to relent to easily.

"Think whatever you wish," Qiangshen hissed again.

"I knew it," Chu Feng clapped his hands. "Don't worry, I'll take good care of her... You can tell your grandmother it won't work. She loves you and will understand."

The chairman shook his head. "You're publicly going after someone's woman."

"She never agreed to him," Chu Feng still had his hopes up.

The door opened to reveal Yuxi, carrying a tray of tea and snacks for the three. She served the three and was about leaving when the chairman stopped her.
