“Big Sister, it’s okay, Master Chu will be fine. Believe me, it’ll be okay.” Shang Guanxue Shui’s tears also began flowing. Their big sister should have been the most composed, the strongest. She was a god in their eyes.
“Xue Shui, you help Big Sister go back first. I’ll stay here to cover our retreat.” Ai Temeng Yue Jin spoke in a hoarse voice, seeing her big sister in such a state. Her usually restrained self could no longer hold back tears. But she knew she couldn’t cry. She wanted to find those who wanted to harm her big sister as quickly as possible.
“Okay, I understand.” Shang Guanxue Shui answered.
She would also quickly investigate the information about those who intended to kill her big sister. Anyone who dared to want to harm their big sister would not be let off easily. She guaranteed that those people would suffer pain a hundred, a thousand times more than their big sister.
[Volume 2: 26, Terrifying Conference]
United States, LE Group Headquarters Senior Conference Room.
Lei Tianyi sat on a large leather sofa, his face wearing its usual cold expression, his sharp eyes scanning the people in the conference room. After surveying the room, his cold voice broke the silence, “Who can explain to me what is going on?”
Standing next to Lei Tianyi, Qi held thick documents, walking briskly around the conference room, his leather shoes clicking against the floor, creating an eerily tense atmosphere. He systematically distributed the documents to each department head’s desk.
Lei Tianyi coldly observed the trembling individuals, his heart filled with contempt. “Hmph! A bunch of cowards.” He turned to look out the window, relishing the feeling of superiority. “Manager Li, you’re in charge of this matter, so you’ll start,” he commanded without room for negotiation.
The unfortunate person called upon stood up nervously. Whether from weak legs or sheer terror, he suddenly collapsed, falling to his knees with a loud thud. His fearful voice rang out, “President, please spare me! It’s not my fault! Really, it’s not my fault!”
Vice President Wang’s face turned pale upon opening his eyes, his body rigid, certain he would be next.
Vice President Gao fell from his chair, hitting his head and losing consciousness, his blood creating an eerie pattern on the black marble floor.
Lei Tianyi didn’t even glance their way. “Remove them all. Meeting adjourned,” he said, walking towards the door.
The “Qi” subordinate sent someone to handle the matter entrusted by Lei Tianyi and then followed his master. He seemed to know what his master was anxiously going to do.
Hearing the new CEO announce the end of the meeting, everyone exhaled heavily. When Lei Tianyi walked out of the meeting room, they discovered their clothes were already soaked with sweat.
Lei Tianyi entered the CEO’s office, having just taken out his phone. A knock interrupted his about-to-dial hand.
Angrily placing the phone down, he glanced at the closed door and coldly said, “Come in.”
He hoped the person entering truly had an urgent matter; otherwise, he couldn’t guarantee they would leave safely. Interrupting his time to call his girl was unforgivable.
Lei Tianyi coldly looked at the entering Xiu, his tone icy, “I hope you don’t disappoint me.”
Xiu glanced at his master’s cold face, seemingly unaffected by the icy voice, his expression still extremely worried. “The wife was assassinated last night,” Xiu said in an extremely careful voice.
“And?” Lei Tianyi’s eyes shot out a bloodthirsty light, he asked while trying to remain calm.
Xiu knew his master was now at the peak of anger and spoke even more carefully, “The wife is fine, but…”
“But what?”
“But the Lieyan Gate’s master, Chu Lie, was seriously injured saving the wife.”
Lei Tianyi secretly exhaled upon hearing Xiu’s words, then seemed to realize something, coldly asking, “Oh, what next?”
“The wife is very sad and has been at Chu Lie’s hospital room all night.”
Good. He wanted to know how sad his girl would be for another man. And why was she sad? Simply because he saved her life?
Lei Tianyi revealed a cold smile, looking at the terrified Xiu, knowing that “very sad” was an understatement. However, he still needed to know something.
He swept a sharp gaze at Xiu, coldly asking, “Tell me, where were the bodyguards protecting the wife, and why did they only report to me so late?”
Xiu knew if he didn’t explain now, he might never have the chance to speak again. “The wife didn’t allow anyone to follow her.”
Good, a solo date with an old lover. He continued coldly, “So you didn’t follow the wife?”
“No, my people were following her in the dark, but…” Xiu looked at Lei Tianyi, unable to continue.
“Alright, continue to monitor the wife’s movements closely. You may go now!” Without being told, he understood the situation. Indeed, with his girl’s abilities, probably only he could follow her without being shaken off.
“Yes.” The pardoned Xiu quickly walked towards the door, unable to help worrying for the wife. His master’s current state seemed to have reached the extreme of anger.
His girl seemed to really care about this Chu Lie? Otherwise, since they’d known each other, she would always have his people with her, but this time she actually shook them off to see Chu Lie. Was she afraid he would find out something?
Lei Tianyi stood and walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the outside scene, seeing everything become insignificant in his eyes. He softly said, “In my eyes, this world is so small. My girl, you should have long known this?” His tone was chillingly cold.
Qi paced back and forth outside the CEO’s office, his brow tightly furrowed, his expression serious, occasionally glancing at the tightly closed office door. He feared a disturbance inside and immediately stopped when he heard the door open, staring unblinkingly at the door.
“Phew!” Finally out, Xiu walked out of the CEO’s office, carefully closing the door. The moment the door closed, he leaned against the wall beside it, a long exhale escaping his mouth, though his worried expression remained unchanged.
“How is it?” Qi walked up, asking the wall-leaning Xiu. He wanted to know the current situation.
“The wife is likely to be in trouble,” Xiu said weakly. He liked this wife, and his happiness depended on her. Thinking of Li Yu, a pained expression crossed Xiu’s face. He didn’t want to fail to marry Li Yu!
Seeing Xiu’s changing expression, Qi became more worried. He continued to ask, “Is it very bad? Did the master ask you to investigate the culprit?”
I have read through the article and made the necessary edits to streamline the content, removing any irrelevant material while maintaining coherence.
“I think it’s terrible that the master didn’t even mention investigating the murderer.”
“Perhaps it’s not as bad as we think. Maybe the master didn’t assign the investigation because of Youming’s test for the madam?”
“Hmm, I hope so!” Although both of them knew this wasn’t the case, they wanted to believe it. They were both satisfied with the madam and didn’t want any conflict between the master and madam.
The door to the CEO’s office opened again, and Qi and Xiu immediately stood respectfully to one side, waiting for their master.
Lei Tianyi walked out of the CEO’s office, glanced at the people nearby, and said coldly, “Qi, are the meeting materials prepared?”
“Yes, everything is ready,” Qi said cautiously, afraid of provoking any anger.
“Hmm, shall we go?” As Lei Tianyi was walking, he glanced at Xiu standing next to Qi and coldly said, “Go investigate who tried to assassinate the madam last night.” Although he was furious that his girl was heartbroken over another man, he couldn’t bring himself to be truly cruel. He couldn’t allow anyone to harm his girl.
