"... Did you manage to handle them in the meeting?" Sheng Ruming asked.
"Yes." Luo Lixi answered. There was a Bluetooth earpiece in her left hair. Because her hair was loosened and those were placed in front of her chest, people couldn't notice the thing in her ear.
"Good. What will you do next?" Sheng Ruming was still in the hotel's business suite.
The man was leaning on the window and was staring at the sky while talking with her. There was a faint smile on his face.
"I am going back to my office room. There isn't much work in my hands now. So, I will leave the company in two hours."
Zhao Yichen glanced at Luo Lixi's back. The man was following her from the meeting room to her office room. His face was complicated as her whispers entered his ears.
When they finally reached the office chamber, she pushed the door. As soon as she saw there was a person sitting on the sofa area she paused.
Even Zhao Yichen became alert and looked over. When the woman stood up and turned around, the two people relaxed.
Luo Lixi entered and walked towards her. Zhao Yichen also followed suit. The man nodded at the woman and decided to stand at a corner.
"Aunt Wang, what are you doing here?" Luo Lixi asked. She was reminded of the thing that yesterday, Elder Wang, Madam Wang's father had transferred his share to her.
'Even now I don't understand why those people did that, sigh…' Her mind couldn't help thinking about this matter a lot but she was lost. 'I think I will talk with him about this.'
Sheng Ruming also stopped speaking when he realized there were other people with her. But he didn't cut the signal and went to sit on a swinging chair on the balcony.
The man took a magazine and began to read, while one part of his mind was ready to eavesdrop.
Yesterday, because it was an important meeting to know about the big changes the company would have because of Luo Qintian's decisions, all the executives and directors came.
But today, there wasn't anything like that. So she was a little surprised to see Madam Wang after she came from a meeting.
"Ah, Lixi, let me say sorry to you for coming without notifying." The woman walked towards her. She glanced at Zhao Yichen who came with Luo Lixi.
"Ah, Yichen is also here?!"
"Yes, aunt." Zhao Yichen replied. The man was standing in a straight poster. It was impossible to ignore the good features and aura he had.
"No need to keep standing, aunt Wang." Luo Lixi saw her looking behind.
Thus she turned towards Zhao Yichen and said, "Leave us alone."
Zhao Yichen nodded and left the room.
Luo Lixi signaled towards the sofa and said, "Please." Thus, the woman sat down. Next Luo went to sit before Madam Wang.
Luo Lixi took her time and folded her legs. She glanced at the clock and saw it was past one pm. Her eyes showed a trace of impatient.
Madam Wang was examining her every single expression.
Both of them were staring at each other. Finally, Luo Lixi opened her lips, "Aunt, do you have something important? Usually, you only come during business related meetings."
"This girl! I just came here to see you. Yesterday, I just got to talk only a bit. Am I not welcome here?"
"Of course you are welcome!"
Madam Wang glanced at Luo Lixi and asked as if she was asking casually, "How was the meeting?"
"Umm, it was okay." Luo Lixi raised an eye when she was asked. Even Sheng Ruming began to enjoy the conversation of the two women.
"Boss, your coffee…" At that moment, one of his bodyguards came into the room. The man went to the balcony and placed a coffee which was in a very beautiful and exquisite tea cup.
'This man! Why is he drinking coffee at noon?!' Luo Lixi subconsciously opened her lips. A word left without knowing, "You… "
Both Sheng Ruming and Madam Wang paused in their places. The woman asked in puzzlement, "Yes?"
"Cough! It's nothing…" Luo Lixi wanted to take out the Bluetooth earpiece but before another person, she didn't do it in the end.
"Good then." Madam Wang pondered for a few minutes. She rubbed her hands against each other.
The woman began to dilly dally. On the other hand, Luo Lixi was feeling restless. 'I wanted to leave early today. How can I if she continues to stay quiet?!'
Finally, as if the woman had noticed Luo Lixi's expressions, she coughed to clear her throat and began to speak, "You know, I have seen both you and your brother turning adults from kids. Even when you were babies, me and my father used to go to your family."
Luo Lixi frowned slightly. It seemed to her that Madam Wang would start to talk like yesterday. More than that, it looked like she was preparing to give a speech.
"It really pains me whenever I think about the fact that you two don't have parents." Luo Lixi's face changed when she heard her.
Even Sheng Ruming froze in his place. His hands gripping the cup's handle tightened further.
Crash~
In a split second, the handle broke and the cup dropped on the ground. The pitch black liquid coloured the white marble floor with its colour.
"What happened?! Boss, are you alright?!" The bodyguard rushed in but left hurriedly when he saw the man's angry expression.
Luo Lixi also heard the sound. She guessed what might have happened.
Nonetheless, she glanced at Madam Wang and smiled deeply, "We have become accustomed to this. After all, in this world, many others don't have parents too."
"Yes. That's why I always feel anxious about you two. My son is also the same age as yours. Sigh! He doesn't come home easily. The brat has been living with his father since childhood. You know… I got a divorce with his father."
"Yes…" Luo Lixi side-eyed her and thought, 'What is the meaning of bringing up this matter?!'
Madam Wang stood up and went to sit beside Luo Lixi. She grabbed her hands and said anxiously, "I am very worried about your brother. In the past, when you were absent, he used to talk with us. But now, I can't even reach him even if I call or message him."
"Don't you dare say anything about your brother to this woman!" Sheng Ruming was wiping his hand with the magazine he was holding.
Even though it was among the top famous magazines in the whole country, the poor thing couldn't avoid it's fate and soon was thrown into the dustbin.
Hearing his demanding voice, she sulked inwardly, ' You don't have to remind me! won't!'
Luo Lixi glanced at Madam Wang. "Oh. I understand." She nodded her head. "So, aunt, what do you want me to do?"
The woman stared at Luo Lixi's face. In the past, if she had just told her a little, Luo Lixi would have told her about Luo Lixiang's whereabouts in detail, as far as calling the man and telling him to meet her.
But now even though her face was normal, her eyes were full of alertness, as if Luo Lixi was guarding against her.
'This cheap girl, what does she mean by `What do you want me to do?` Shouldn't she tell me his location or how to connect with him?!'
The middle aged woman coughed and smiled. Luo Lixi also smiled. Both of their smiles were stiff.
"Do you want to talk with him?"
"...Yes."
"Lixi!" Sheng Ruming growled.
'Argh! Why is this man growling?! My ear will burst because of him! I will twist his ear as soon as I meet him, humph!'
Then, Luo Lixi continued her conversation with the woman.
"Sorry. I think grandfather has told all the things that need to be, in the meeting yesterday. If you can't reach him, even can't I…" Luo Lixi shook her head and stood up, "Sorry. I can't help you."
Madam Wang's face became dark. Slowly, she stood up as well, "You don't even know. You are his sister?!"
Luo Lixi turned around and walked towards her desk. She dragged the leather seat and sat down.
"My grandfather is very strict. He didn't even tell me where he sent him either. I am very sorry."
Then, she called out to Zhao Yichen, "Yichen, bring refreshments for aunt Wang."
Afterwards, she looked at her again, "Aunt, please go before you eat something. I am busy now. So I can't give time to you."
"It's okay. I know you are busy. I won't disturb you anymore. Remember to visit aunt's home if you have time."
Luo Lixi smiled and said, "I will."
Madam Wang turned around and left the room. As soon as she left, Luo Lixi spoke out, "Ruming, the heck you were doing?! Screaming in the phone for what?!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"... Did you manage to handle them in the meeting?" Sheng Ruming asked.
"Yes." Luo Lixi answered. There was a Bluetooth earpiece in her left hair. Because her hair was loosened and those were placed in front of her chest, people couldn't notice the thing in her ear.
