Kong Pipi also wasn't in a hurry. She stood up lazily and went to the kitchen lazily. Her heart ached when her newly manicured fingers had to work. On the sofa, the man eyed her fiercely. The last time, she had broken a previous glass of his and in return, he broke her nails.

Only a masochist like Kong Pipi knew why she liked this guy and still came to suffer. When she was done rubbing a little bowl for ten minutes, her black eyes squinted when the man sat opposite her.

"I met your sister. We talked after many months and she seemed different from before. As if everything was normal. Also, her fiance... " 

Luo Lixiang didn't have any reaction as he was listening to her. Rather, he crossed his legs and closed his eyes, as if he went into meditation.

"Her life is extremely good now, without you they are okay." 

Luo Lixiang opened his eyes and angrily glared at her, "Have you come to say these?! Didn't I tell you not to mention any of those people before me?"

Kong Pipi hesitated before she inched towards him and held his hand tightly. Her eyes were pleading as she whispered, "Xiang, for how many days are you planning to stay here?! Don't you feel suffocated? It's not a place for people like us. You know..."

The man didn't push her away like earlier. But in usual times, if anyone dared to act intimate like her, they would be given a lot of curses which were full of elegance and class!

"Listen to me and come back. We can get married and you will enter my family. You don't need to rely on your grandfather or that family to have a good life." As Kong Pipi didn't see his rejection, she became too close to that man. Her breath directly fell on his face.

"I'm my father's only baby. If you get married and enter my family, you will surely have the chance to get back at them. I will tell my father to make things difficult for Lixi and that Ruming to avenge you… what do you say?" Kong Pipi held hopes in her eyes as she finally let out her plans. 

What avenging, what making things difficult?! She just wanted to marry and take this man into her family. The things she liked, even if those were useless, she wouldn't stop until she got them. 

As for avenging him, who in their right mind would do that?! In her mind, she thought she had plenty of ideas to let him turn so busy that revenge or avenge wouldn't ever cross his twisted mind.

Luo Lixiang stared at her eager eyes which seemed as if she was ready to jump on him if he showed even the slightest hint of consideration.

"You say, you are suggesting me to marry you? Or you want me to be your kept man and stay at your home?." Luo Lixiang's eyes turned dark. This matter seemed humiliating to his ego as a man. 

"Do you believe that I will poison your whole family if you dare to let me marry in your damn Kong family?!"

Kong Pipi pursed her lips and snorted in irritation. "Hey, stop talking about poisoning me or my family. Be a human and talk properly, will you?"

"I am at least 5 years older than you. If you marry me I won't let you stay in a difficult situation, you know that. In the future, my father's company will be yours. Didn't you want to be a CEO so badly that you nearly killed her?" 

Luo Lixiang's eyes dilated and his face turned gloomy. Kong Pipi didn't stop and continued to spew her thoughts, "You see, you don't need to kill someone to get that position. I can happily give it to you as long as you agree!"

The woman raised her hand and rubbed his lips. Under her rubbing, his rough lips became soft. While trying to lure him in, she also tried to use seduction to achieve her goal. 

"That foolish butler is a moron. You fell in trouble because of him. Forget about rescuing him from that prison. Let him rot there and get beaten to atone his sins."

Luo Lixiang abruptly showed her a smile that seemed to capture her soul. It was the same innocent and cheerful smile she had fallen for in the past. 

When Kong Pipi had the chance to come closer the man's face changed in a second. 

In the next second, she was thrown out of the house. No matter how much she knocked at his door and tried to convince him to agree with her, the man didn't open the door.

In anger Kong Pipi banged on the door her heels but in the end, she got injured. "This muddle-headed person will surely understand one day that nobody thinks about him except ME!!!" 

She turned around in anger and went back to her car while scoffing and grumbling.

Back in the house, Luo Lixiang sat in the empty room. At one point, he turned off the lights and took his lighter. While he was quiet, his hand constantly lit it up and turned off the lighter. 

His dark eyes intensely stared at the lighter. The surrounding became so tense that any second person would feel a chill running down their spine.

… ... 

Early in the morning. One car came and stopped before the entrance of a giant mansion.

Before the guards stationed around the area could go and check who was the owner, the doors of it were opened and two people came out. 

As soon as they saw it was Luo Lixi, they hurriedly opened the gate for her. Sheng Ruming came to her and told her for the last time, "Don't be angry with me anymore. I will come another day to see you."

Luo Lixi pursed her lips and nodded. As soon as the gate was opened she strolled in in a hurry.

Aunt Zhu saw her come in and go to the upper floor. She wanted to stop her and asked if she was alright but Luo Qintian signalled her not to.

As soon as she entered her room, Luo Lixi took a pair of professional clothes and entered the washroom. In twenty minutes she took a quick bath and got dressed up.

Both Luo Qintian and others saw her rushing out. This time Luo Qintian was the one who stopped spraying water to his precious trees and asked, "you have just returned from outside. Where are you going now?!"

"To the company. There is a very important meeting today. I can't postpone it." After the brief answer, she rushed out and soon a bodyguard accompanied her.

When the car left, Luo Qintian shook his head in disappointment. "It would have been better if that brat Zhao Yichen could still be her bodyguard… sigh!" 

Aunt Zhu also nodded in understanding. However, after a short moment, the atmosphere turns normal.

Luo Lixi stared at the document in her hand. She seemed to be in a trance. A woman stood at a side and waited for her reply. 

She was none other than Pan Er Jiu, the woman who had come back from the overseas branch of the Sheng Industry and Corporation and was placed under Ji Yanli. 

Now that Zhao Yichen had gone to the army because of his grandfather's instruction, there wasn't any person who was reliable. Also, Sheng Ruming didn't like the idea that another man would be her private assistant or secretary.

Thus, he transferred Pan Er Jiu from his company to hers, turning the latter Luo Lixi's assistant.

Right at this moment, the new assistant of hers was curiously looking at Luo Lixi's dazed appearance. She anxiously saw the time from her hand watch and reminded Luo Lixi, "Miss Luo, the meeting will start in two minutes."

Hearing her voice, Luo Lixi woke up from her trance and stood up in a haste. "Let's go then." With large steps, she exited the room with the file in her hand.

After entering the meeting room, she saw the important directors and executives of the company. Among them, madam Wang and Luo Tiankong were seated on both of her sides. 

'I guess everyone has come.' Her eyes saw there was no empty seat except the main one. An old executive even snorted.

"Such an important meeting yet you are late? How can a girl like you run a company?!" Hearing his words, the room descended into silence. 

All people turned towards Luo Lixi to see her reply but the woman behind her stepped forward and answered politely while checking her watch, "Sir, there are still 30 seconds left. How can CEO Luo be late?!"

Listening to her voice, many people turned their heads to their watches. As expected, Pan Er Jiu was correct. Luo Lixi smiled and sat down.
