BXBX NOVEL Chapter 622 - Friendly Threats
On getting to the office, Ye Cheng first of all sorted out a few documents in the order of importance and before any work kick-started, he decided to quickly put a call through to Li Jing personal assistant in her company.
"Hello, morning. This is Ye Cheng."
"Oh, sir. Good morning, How is madam?"
"She is getting better and recovering at home."
"Thank goodness. I was scared for her."
"You do not have to be, she is safe. I called to let you know that you can forwards all the important and urgent work to my mail directly and I would handle them and send them back to you."
"Oh, is madam okay with it?"
"Yes. You can call her to confirm and do the needful. Whether or not she is available or indisposed, the company must go."
"Yes sir. Oh do not worry about me calling her, her text just came in, informing me about what you said. Alright, I would forward the most urgent ones to you, sir."
"Okay. You have my mail right?"
"Yes sir."
"Good. That would be all now. Do have a nice day and if you encounter any problem or difficulties, do not hesitate to let me know."
"Got it, sir. Thank you very much."
"No worries."
Sorting that out was one part, now he needed to follow through with Fong Wei ling to ensure things were going smoothly.
Picking up his phone from the desk, he went straight to his dial contact and dialled his friend\'s line.
Ring! Ring!
"Hello, Cheng. Morning."
"Morning, Wei? Ling. How is everything?"
"Good but then do you mean me or do you mean everything as pertaining to yesterday\'s event?"
"Both, Wei Ling."
"Well for my personal life, things are going pretty well but for theirs."
Just listening to the tone of his friend\'s voice, Ye Cheng started having a hint of doubt that something might have indeed gone wrong.
"Wei Ling, what is wrong?"
"Umm, let me see."
"Fone Wei Ling, is everything okay? Do not play games with me if you do not want to be the next target on my list," he threatened.
"Hahaha... Are you really threatening me now, Ye Cheng?"
"I do not know. It depends on if you are playing with me or not."
"Tsk. Says who I am lying with you. As it stands, I would just really make something go wrong so as to you know escape your wrath because you plan on making me pay if I am joking. Soi might just make it real instead."
"Fong Wei Ling!"
"Hey, stop yelling, Ye Cheng, else you would disturb my beautiful sister-in-law. I wonder how she is coping with you and your pesky, naughty attitude."
"Hey who has a naughty pesky attitude, Fong Wei Ling?"
"You, of course, I prefer the cold you to this nagging you," Fong Wei Ling confessed.
"Oh, you do?" His lips pulled upwards into a smile at his friend\'s confession. "Hmm, you know what came with such attitude. I made you all suffer one way or the other."
"Tsk, I thrill for that you. It was what got me, my lovely girlfriend, when you tried to make me lose face by telling her outrightly that your friend likes her."
"Hmm, you call that a cold me or punishing you?" Ye Cheng shook his head, holding the phone closer to his ear as he leaned back against his chair, placing one leg across the other in a square fashion as she rolled his chair from side to side.
"Yes, I do."
\'Umm, that was just me being nice. As you can see, my nice gesture got you your current girlfriend. Besides, be happy about me of now as your sister-in-law would not want the old me."
"Says who? Girls thrill for such a killer cold look from a dashing CEO."
"Ah, I see. So you admire me? If I had not known better I would have said my friend was becoming gay."
"Hell no. I am straight, no homo brother."
"Hahaha..." Ye Cheng\'s laughter resounded both in the office and through the phone to Fong Wei Ling.
"Glad to see you cheerful."
"Thanks," Ye Cheng appreciated him, finally understanding where this whole talk had been going all this time.
"Haha, glad you got it and not planning on making me suffer."
"Are you sure I still would not make you suffer? How about setting you up and allowing Jenny to catch you. She would break your head. It would be a nice sight watching as the heir to the top mafia gang is being beaten by a woman. Een your enemies would cry for you."
"Tsk, you better not try anything crazy. You know how Jenny can be. I do love my head and besides, if you still want your payback with Chairman Zhang you won\'t dare it."
"I would cause I would be the one to settle it, hahaha..." He let out another hearty laughter, making Fong Wei Ling shake his head.
"Do so and I would get your lovely Li Jing to my side. I trust sister-in-law would support me."\'Leave my wifey alone."
"Hmm. You too, leave Jenny alone."
Both of them finally kept silent and smiled into their phones. Thye could not see each other but it felt like they were. "How is she by the way?" Fong Wei Ling asked breaking the silence war.
"She is okay, getting better and being happy in her own cheerful way."
"I see. That is great. Can I greet her?"
"Tsk, you call yourself a mafia Lord, yet you do not know my whereabouts? Tsk, I feel sad having my security In your hands."
"Ouchie. That hurts, Cheng."
"Well, it is true. Why would you expect me to be at home at this time?"
"Huh, it is just past 9 am. You can be. Besides, I am surprised that your sorry ass can take a break and leave your wife alone."
"Tsch, don\'t bring that up."
"Ah, I see, so it was a hard thing after all for you to leave her by herself hey?" He arched his brows severally in a playful fashion as though Ye Cheng was watching him.
