Chapter 153 Big Boss Behind The Scenes

When Feng Shuo asked her to attend the banquet together after work today, she almost thought that something was wrong with her ears. After confirming it, she hurriedly bought clothes and put on makeup before following him.

At this moment, she felt that all the women were staring at her with jealousy and hatred, and her vanity was greatly satisfied.

“President Feng's female companion is truly astonis.h.i.+ngly beautiful!” A familiar company boss greeted Feng Shuo with a smile. Feng Shuo only raised his cup to indicate that there was no expression on his face, causing Linda's heart to be very depressed.

“President Feng, let's go there …”

Before Linda could finish her sentence, she felt that her hand was empty. Feng Shuo's arm had already been pulled away and he was hurrying towards the distance. Looking from afar, there seemed to be two women sitting there.

Could it be

Linda couldn't think too much about it and hurriedly walked two steps forward. She secretly investigated Feng Shuo's previous relations.h.i.+p history and found out about his relations.h.i.+p with Huo Yunqi and the woman between them, Xia Luobing.

Especially knowing that Feng Shuo wanted to invest in the Xia Corporation for the sake of obtaining Xia Luobing, she listed Xia Luobing as her number one rival in her heart.

“Bing Bing, you're also here.” Feng Shuo was pleasantly surprised as he looked at Xia Luobing, who was sitting on the sofa chatting with an intoxicated smile. “You're very beautiful today.”

Xia Luobing looked up at Feng Shuo and said indifferently, “Thank you.”

“Bing Bing, I will find an opportunity to talk to the boss of QC about the Xia Corporation.” Feng Shuo said while stuck on Xia Luobing. He didn't like her polite and aloof att.i.tude towards her, which made him feel that he couldn't get close to her no matter what he did.

Linda looked at Xia Luobing hatefully. She gritted her teeth and stood behind Feng Shuo without saying a word, but her heart was extremely uncomfortable.

“I've already said that I don't need it.” Xia Luobing said coldly. She looked at the intoxicated side and said, “Let's go.”

When Xia Luobing and Tao Zui were about to leave and brush past Feng Shuo, Feng Shuo grabbed their wrists and had no choice but to turn around and say in a low voice, “What are you doing?”

Intoxicated by Feng Shuo's sudden action, she was shocked. Seeing that Xia Luobing was already angry, she immediately looked at Feng Shuo in displeasure, “In public, is President Feng not afraid of his own face? Your female companion is still waiting here!”

Although so many years had pa.s.sed and his intoxicated temper had been restrained a lot, sparks still appeared in his eyes when he saw his good sisters being embarra.s.sed. This Feng Shuo was simply too much.

“Bing Bing, I will help you return to the Xia Corporation, no matter how much you pay!” Feng Shuo said in a deep voice, “You must accept it!”

Charlotte looked coldly at Feng Shuo. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a commotion coming from the entrance of the hall. The corner of her eyes curled into a familiar figure. Her heart tightened and she subconsciously turned around to look. The two of them looked at each other. Time seemed to have stopped.

How could it be him?!

“Huo Yunqi!” Intoxicated exclaimed. He covered his mouth and looked at Xia Luobing blankly. Seeing that she was also surprised, he was unsure, “Could Huo Yunqi be the boss behind QC?”

Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment. A picture flashed through her mind. She finally understood why she felt that QC was so familiar with it. It turned out that she had heard of it from Huo Yunqi. It was a brand jointly founded by Huo Yunqi and Ye Shaochen.

Huo Yunqi's gaze was attracted by Tao Zui's exclamation. His gaze landed on Feng Shuo's hand that was grabbing Xia Luobing's arm. He pursed his lips and quickly moved his gaze away coldly, as if he didn't recognize her at all.

Xia Luobing fiercely grabbed Feng Shuo's hand and shook it off, “I've already told you very clearly, so I don't want this situation to happen again.”

After saying that, Xia Luobing pulled Tao Zui to the rooftop. All the stories seemed to have reopened. Huo Yunqi had returned. The first thing he did when he returned to City A with absolute strength was to buy the Xia Corporation. It seemed that he must have hated her badly.

“Bing Bing, are you alright?” Intoxicated, he asked worriedly, “Does Huo Yunqi know about Duo Duo's existence?”

Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment. Panic flashed in her eyes. She stuffed the wine gla.s.s into Tao Zui's hand and hurriedly turned around. She instinctively didn't want Huo Yunqi to know about Duo Duo's existence, as if he would steal her daughter.

“Bing Bing, wait for me” Intoxicated, she lifted the hem of her gown and hurriedly chased after him. As soon as she ran out of the balcony, Xia Luobing had already disappeared. She stomped her feet worriedly and hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the hotel.

The rooftop returned to peace. In the shadows below the stairs, Xia Luobing stared at the man who was very close. Through the dim light, she could see his cold features. They were exactly the same as five years ago, but her eyes were even colder.

“Let me go.” Xia Luobing struggled to break free and took a step back. She calmed her emotions and said, “You're back.”

Yunqi raised his eyebrows. “Are you disappointed?”

Xia Luobing narrowed his eyes and looked at the man who was very close to him. He came back and returned to City A in a more dazzling manner than five years ago. He walked in front of her.

“You … are you alright?” Xia Luobing's voice was arduous, and her chest was filled with complex emotions. However, she only said these three words in the end.

Five years hadn't left many traces on Yunqi's body, but she could clearly feel that he was different from before. Perhaps it was because of his more domineering posture, or perhaps it was because he was clearly smiling, but his eyes were filled with mockery

Huo Yunqi looked at the expression on Xia Luobing's face. He seemed to be enjoying her shock and helplessness. His slender fingers gently touched the woman's cheek and moved along the arc of her face. Finally, his fingers stopped on her slightly trembling lips due to shock.

“Of course, I'm fine.”

His voice was as cold as his fingers. The chill penetrated through his thin skin and into his blood. Then, he swiftly swam all over his body.

Xia Luobing couldn't help but s.h.i.+ver. She took a step back and avoided Huo Yunqi's finger. She raised her jaw slightly and said, “I'm leaving!”

“Are you in such a hurry? Are you going to find Feng Shuo?” Huo Yunqi raised his eyebrows, his face smiling, his eyes staring at Xia Luobing, as if he wanted to see through all her worries.

The undisguised mockery was like a sharp sword piercing through Xia Luobing's flesh and blood. Her heart ached, and she instinctively wanted to breathe in large mouthfuls of cold air into her abdomen to alleviate this uneasiness. In the end, she firmly restrained herself from revealing any clues.

“President Huo, I still have something to do. Goodbye.” Xia Luobing turned around and left. This time, Huo Yunqi did not follow her. However, she could still feel the man's eyes staring at her back. They were scorching hot and cold.

Xia Luobing ran out of the rooftop with a pale complexion. She was so excited that she staggered. She didn't even see the person walking towards her clearly and b.u.mped into him. She raised her head in surprise and saw the person in front of her hurriedly take a step back. Her eyes tightened as she coldly said, “President Feng, what's the matter?”

“Bing Bing, have you gone to see Huo Yunqi? He has ulterior motives for approaching you. You must not be fooled!” Feng Shuo said anxiously, as if he was afraid that if he spoke too slowly, Xia Luobing would be kidnapped. “He must have come back to take revenge on us, so don't believe what he said!”

Xia Luobing said coldly, “My business has nothing to do with you.”

She hated the “us” in Feng Shuo's mouth.

Feng Shuo's expression stiffened as he sighed helplessly as if he was looking at a naughty child, “Bing Bing, I know you're angry with me, but after so many years, can't you understand my feelings for you? Forgive me, I'll use the time in the future to make up for you.”

For five years, his life had been smooth, and Charlotte was the only setback.

Before, he was willing to slowly infiltrate and move her, but now it was different. Huo Yunqi's return made him feel like he had no time. He had to get Xia Luobing immediately, and he couldn't delay it at all.

“Shut up!” Charlotte said coldly. She dodged Feng Shuo's hand and tried to pull her arm. A cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. “Feng Shuo, don't you find it boring to say these words?”

After saying that, Xia Luobing lifted her skirt and prepared to leave. However, Feng Shuo, who had always been very careful to protect her image, actually blocked her path without caring about anything. His eyes were filled with pressure, “Bing Bing, don't force me. My patience will be exhausted by you.”

“Move aside!” Charlotte stared coldly at Feng Shuo. “Your patience shouldn't have been used on me.”

Feng Shuo's face turned ashen, “Bing Bing, can't you see what I've done for you? I don't believe you're so cold-blooded!”

If it was before, Feng Shuo would definitely not have spoken to Xia Luobing like this. However, Huo Yunqi's appearance made him feel a strong sense of crisis. He always felt that if he couldn't hold onto this woman in front of him, she would disappear and never belong to him again!

“Move aside!” Xia Luobing stared at Feng Shuo and said bluntly, “Don't make me hate you more than before.”

Huo Yunqi was right here. She did not want to argue with Feng Shuo. Most importantly, she felt a strong hatred from Huo Yunqi, so she had to go home and settle Duo Duo first

Feng Shuo's eyes turned red as he reached out to grab Xia Luobing's arm. However, he was removed by a large hand that appeared in the sky. He turned around angrily and saw Huo Yunqi's sneering eyes. The two of them looked at each other, and the air smelled of food being burnt.

“Is President Feng quarreling with Miss Xia?” Huo Yunqi smiled coldly. His eyes scanned back and forth between the two of them. He smiled in a good mood and said, “Looks like the relations.h.i.+p between the two of you isn't that good!”

Feng Shuo shook off Huo Yunqi's finger that was pinching his arm and said, “President Huo, the boss behind QC? Don't think that we don't know what you are planning to buy Xia Enterprises?!”

Xia Luobing frowned slightly and pursed her lips. She remained silent. Huo Yunqi hated her. If she wanted to take revenge on the Xia Corporation for this, she was speechless. She just felt guilty about her father.

“Oh? Looks like President Feng understands me very well.” Huo Yunqi brought a cup of dry red from the waiter and took a sip. The smile on her face became even more charming, but Xia Luobing felt a chill that she had never felt before.

Feng Shuo bluntly said, “Huo Yunqi, don't you feel shameless to always use this method to obtain ice?”

The commotion on this side had already attracted the attention of many people. Many of the people who came to the banquet knew about the relations.h.i.+p between Xia Luobing and Yunqi Huo, and they also knew that Feng Shuo had been pursuing Xia Luobing. Therefore, the look in his eyes at this moment was filled with inquiry.
