Chapter 74 - Tao Chu Liang's Hesitation

Having become the CEO, Tao Chu Liang's hanging heart was at ease by more than half.

He lay on his bed and looked out the window. The night wind was blowing gently …

At this moment, there was only one person that Tao Chu Liang was thinking about, Xiang Chen Xi.

"This is the adoption certificate." These were the words he had said the first time he had seen her. They were domineering and intimidating, making one unable to have any doubts.

At the seaside, he embraced her and domineeringly swore his love and ownership of her.

He was jealous of Qi Qing Hao, so when he thought of the grievances in his heart, he felt embarrassed to say it. He pretended that it didn't matter, but in truth, when he was fighting with her all over the place, she wanted to laugh, but while laughing, the corner of Tao Chu Liang's mouth gradually drooped down. Gradually, a sound of sobbing floated out, and tears soaked the pillow towel.

Xiang Chen Xi, why did you leave me, and why did you leave me so quickly despite giving me happiness? You said you want me to stay by your side forever? You bastard, why did you do this to me?

The soft sobbing gradually turned into crying, and in the end, Tao Chu Liang could no longer hold it back, he laid on the bed and started to wail. Xiang Chen Xi, who had left him, cried for her willfulness and stubbornness. He cried for his parents who had wronged his and accepted his happiness that she would never have …

Tao Chu Liang fell asleep amidst his tears. What she did not know was that in a house at the outskirts of the city, there was a person who was staring at the display with a complicated expression, watching her every move.

Early in the morning, Tao Chu Liang felt around the office with his eyes red from crying. He touched all the tables and stools in the office.

Before Tao Chu Liang could react, the secretary pushed open the door.

"Bam!"

A large amount of information was pushed onto Tao Chu Liang's desk.

Tao Chu Liang was shocked.

"Secretary Song, what are these? Is it something I have to finish today? "

Secretary Song wiped away the sweat on his forehead, "Yes, Boss Tao. These are the tasks for today. In the past, Item Total had handled more tasks than these! The board of directors specifically reduced the workload for your benefit. "

"Oh, okay, I got it. You can go back, I have something to talk to you about."

On the other side —

Tao Yi Fei did not behave normally as she busied herself in the office.

"You guys still have more. Clean it up and check it out. All these years, all the tasks that we have accumulated and haven't been completed, give me one piece of it after another. Carefully check it out for me!" "After you find out the truth, hand it over to me immediately. If you can't do it well, then scram!"

Hearing her shout, everyone quickly scattered.

Tao Chu Liang, I will let you be my CEO, let's see how long you can keep up! Tao Yi Fei leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes and carefully savored the coffee his subordinate had just bought, a pleased look on his face.

Just then, Tao Yi Fei's phone rang.

"Hey, dad, I've already done what you told me to do. I'll personally send it over to her later."

"Alright, remember this. Don't you dare offend her in order to prevent her from harboring grudges against our family!" Tao Jian Xin hung up the phone in satisfaction. Very good, if this carried on, Tao Chu Liang would quickly feel that he was powerless, and before long, he would be able to improve his position as the CEO of the company.

In the CEO's office.

"Aiyo, cousin."

Tao Chu Liang did not raise his head, and continued to methodically process the documents in his hands.

"Everyone who enters this office is talking about business. If there's nothing else, you can leave."

Oh, did you take the wrong medicine today? Tao Chu Liang looked up and glanced at Tao Yi Fei, and laughed: "I'm really flattered today, I just wonder if there's anything inside this fruit that I shouldn't have put in there?"

"Tao Chu Liang, you better not not know what's good for you. If it wasn't for my father's order for me to come over to see you, I wouldn't even bother to take a step at your place. Do you want to eat or not?!"

After saying that, he turned around and left. Then, as if he had thought of something, he turned around and smiled even more brilliantly.

"Aiya, I was so focused on talking to you that I forgot the important matter. Secretary Li, come in."

Secretary Li had been blocked outside of the door by Tao Yi Fei ever since she entered. Now, with an awkward expression, he quickly walked in.

"Boss Tao, here is the file sent over by the Department of Administration Sect, we need to finish processing it in the next few days."

"Oh? No matter how I look at it, this is a matter of old age. What were you doing before? " Tao Chu Liang's face turned cold.

"Tao Yi Fei is late for work and did not report it, so I'll deduct half a year's salary. Alright, you guys can leave now, don't look for me if you have nothing to do."

"Please take note, Department Head Tao, this is the CEO's office. If there's anything, we can talk about it outside."

Secretary Li glanced at the two of them and quickly pulled Tao Yi Fei along.

"Oh, right. Secretary Li, it must have been hard for you to run up and down. Here, take this fruit plate."

"Aiyo, how can I be embarrassed about this? "Boss Tao …"

"Hmph, just you wait!" When my father sits in your place, let's see how I'll deal with you! Of course, Tao Chu Liang did not say the latter half of the sentence, he turned around and angrily walked away.

Tao Chu Liang laughed disdainfully. He was thinking that with just this little trick, he would be able to make things difficult for her. Tao Yi Fei had underestimated her too much.

But after a few consecutive days, Tao Chu Liang indeed felt that his strength was somewhat insufficient.

After taking care of more than half of the documents, Tao Chu Liang was tired. He folded his arms, put his head on his arms and planned to take a nap.

After lying down for a while, she was disturbed by the sound of the door opening. She rubbed her eyes and raised her head to look. What was he doing here again?

"Chu Liang, why did you fall asleep while lying on the table?"

Tao Jian Xin put down the coffee in his hand and looked at Tao Chu Liang casually, pretending to be concerned about him. However, all of his attention was on Tao Chu Liang's working paper.

"I'm fine, it's just that there's been a lot of things happening recently. I'm fine."

"Uncle, aren't you just feeling sorry for me!"

Using this as an excuse, Tao Jian Xin asked very naturally: "Do you need Uncle to help you deal with it? Don't tire yourself out."

Tao Chu Liang's mind became clever, connecting the actions of Tao Yi Fei and the past few days, his heart came to an understanding. So this father and daughter pair had teamed up to let him feel extremely tired, so Tao Jian Xin could get closer to the company's internal affairs.

But, if she rejected him, wouldn't that arouse Tao Jian Xin's suspicions?

Now, if Xiang Chen Xi was sitting here, what would he do?

Tao Chu Liang's heart ached.
