Chapter 8 My Secret

• Only then did I slowly scan those senior executives that I had known for years before finally settled on Feng Shi's face. “Is this meeting today your idea, or all of you?”
• “It's my idea, and so is ours.” Feng Shi sneered, “After all, the company needs a leader to bring in wealth, rather than wasting the position on a useless burden.”
• “Ms. Ye, we survive on salary, unlike you.”
• “That's right. You're occupying the position even when you hardly ever come to the office. There is no such good thing in the world.”
• “Not to mention that President Feng wants a divorce. if I find myself a useless wife, I would also want a divorce.”
• The endless criticism hovered around my ears, making my eyes red with anger. These people had been receiving benefits from the Ye family for so many years, but they had all become ungrateful and vicious scoundrel.
• Feng Shi was like a winner, putting on a smug face. If I could, I would have given him two slaps on the cheeks.
• At this time, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open with a young man came rushing toward Jian Yang, the vice president in charge of the company's projects for a few words.
• Jian Yang's face turned green, looking toward me.
• Feng Shi furrowed his brows and glanced at the pale man. “What's wrong?”
• “President Feng... There's some problem with the project we are working on with the government.” Jian Yang stood up and looked at me again. “Word from the government is that they disapprove the project, and they said...”
• Jian Yang stammered and Feng Shi roared at him, “What did they say?”
• “They asked for your wife to handle this project...”
• “Ye Huan? She's just a housewife. What does she know?! Are you sure you heard correctly?!”
• “I'm sure, President Feng. I've contacted the officials, and they insisted for Ms. Ye to negotiate this contract with them. It's useless for anyone else to go!”
• A government project?
• I pondered for a while. The company did have such a project.
• This project was the focus of the company where many efforts were put into. Most of the liquidity had been dumped into the initial investment. If the government didn't take down this project, the company would be greatly impacted.
• I rose to my feet and scoffed, “Want me to negotiate? The company is having a meeting right now to fire me. With what identity do I use to negotiate with them?
• “Ye Huan!”
• Feng Shi was infuriated at my words. Those who were blabbing carelessly just now were afraid to look at me in the eyes.
• Walking toward me, Jian Yang broke into a laughter, “Miss, this meeting is to discuss your stay or departure. Who said you would be fired? You can't just turn a blind eye to the company's affairs. After all, this is the old man's life's work...”
• “You're right. This is my father's life's work, so I'm not going to be a housewife anymore, like what Feng Shi said.”
• I turned to look at that husband of mine, enunciating my words, “I want a proper position in the company, corresponding salary and an office of my own. Since I'm the one negotiating for this project, I shall be the person-in-charge for it in the future. I expect commissions and rewards to be given, not a penny less!”
• Feng Shi simply contemplated for two seconds and nodded in agreement.
• “Ye Huan, I'll agree to all your conditions, but come to my office now.”
• He then turned to leave the conference room, and I followed behind, breathing a sigh of relief as soon as I left the conference room.
• Watching Feng Shi's anxious back, I was confused.
• Why am I appointed to negotiate the project with the government? Could it be that the man helped me?
• But I haven't had the chance to say anything yet...
• As I was thinking, I had arrived at the doorway of Feng Shi's office. I pushed open the door to see him propped up with one hand on the desk. His eyes were those of mockery when he turned to look at me.
• “With the ability to help you ask for a price, what kind of man did you sleep with, Ye Huan?”
• Since he wanted to talk, I wasn't at all secretive as I sniggered, “What kind of man? Of course, he's the best; rich and handsome.”
• As I said that, I deliberately took a glimpse of Feng Shi's crotch and continued, “Not only is he capable, he's big and good at it, far better than you!”
• “You!”
• Feng Shi lurched at me in exasperation, grabbing my arms. He wrapped his arm around my waist, dragged me to the sofa, and started unbuttoning my clothes, yelling, “I'm going to see for myself who's stronger between him and me today!”
• “Feng Shi, let me go!”
• I didn't expect him to go bonkers in the office. I struggled to keep him away with my hands and feet.
• “If other men can f**k you, why can't I? I'm still your f**king husband!”
• Feng Shi was strong. Just when I couldn't resist anymore and tried to shout for help, his phone rang.
• The phone was ringing incessantly. Feng Shi had no choice but to let go of me and answered the phone. I quickly sat up, adjusted my clothes and ran out of his office.
• As I was leaving the office, I heard his panicked voice, “What? My mum got into an accident?”
