Chapter 21 - What? Where? How?
First photograph: Yichan and a woman holding hands in public.
Second photograph: The woman flaunting her diamond ring in front of the camera.
Third photograph: The woman had her arms wrapped around his waist and was resting her head on his shoulder.
The woman was Ms Wang Juan, the eldest daughter of the Wang family. Wang Juan had claimed to be Yichan's childhood friend and also his childhood sweetheart.
Yichan and Wang Juan announced their engagement five years ago right after Ning's scandal. But surprisingly the very next day, Yichan called off the engagement. When asked the reason behind calling it off, Yichan simply said that he wasn't interested in getting engaged or married.
Rumours said that Wang Juan and Yichan decided to call it off because they wanted to keep their relationship a secret. There were times when they were seen together in public but of course, no one was daring enough to expose it to the public or question their relationship.
Ning had met Wang Juan in a few events and way the way she blushed when Yichan's name would be mentioned, Ning always felt a strong urge to scratch her face, shave all her hair off, chop her body into small tiny pieces and toss those pieces into the deep blue ocean.
Passing the tab to Mr Coulus, Ning said," Get rid of this."
" Boss-"
Cutting him off, Ning said," You have ten minutes."
Mr Coulus vigorously nodded his head and left.
" Meeting adjourned." Ning said before walking out of the meeting room.
…..
Mo corporation.
Yichan's office.
" Your ex-fiance is here to see you." Guiren said.
" Ask her to leave." Yichan said.
" She refuses to leave until you tell her what is going on between you and Yang Ning." Guiren said.
When Yichan did not say anything, Guiren said," Seriously what is going on between you and Yang Ning?"
Five years ago when Yichan returned from America after completing his last phase of training for the CEO position, he requested Guiren to be his assistant to which Guiren readily agreed as they were childhood best buddies and at that time Guiren also had nothing to do.
With the big scandal of Yang Ning sleeping with her sisters fiancé and her agreeing that she did in front of the whole media had been trending all over the place, Yichan first asked Guiren to get rid of every news and article about Yang Ning. He also asked him to make sure that everything is completely wiped off and in the future no one talks about it.
Yichan then asked Guiren to buy as many shares as he could of the Wen Enterprise. Using his connections, he also took away and stopped many on-going projects of Wen Enterprise which brought Wen Moshen, the current CEO to the verge of bankruptcy. The Wen Enterprise was still struggling to stabilise themselves but no matter how much they tried, their condition did not improve.
The very day after dealing with Wen Moshen, Yichan surprisingly announced his engagement with his so-called childhood friend in the public and also broke it off the very next day.
Though Yichan verbally said that he hated Yang Ning, he still secretly kept a close eye on her and helped her deal with people who tried to underestimate or trick her.
Guiren could never understand his actions and the reason behind it.
When Yichan did not say anything, Guiren asked," Is it related to the time when you surprisingly disappeared for six months?"
Yichan was about to say something but a very important phone call interrupted him.
" Hello." Yichan said.
He then widened his eyes in shock and shouted," What? Where? How?"
" Alright, I am coming." Yichan said before grabbing his coat and dashing out of his office.
….
Yang Corporation.
" What?" Ning shouted.
" How did this happen? He was alright in the morning." Ning said.
Grabbing her coat, Ning said," I'll be there in five." Before dashing out of her office.
