Shen Yugui took the pendant hanging from her neck. It was a ring with a red stone. At this moment, not only was it ‘beep beep beep’-ing, the red heart-shaped induction light also lit up, flashing like a beating heart.
Shen Yugui’s heart jumped uncontrollably along with the ring.
However, the sound disappeared a moment later.
Her eyes dimmed. It was as if a piece of her heart was missing.
Over the years, communication had improved, and there were many more interfering signals. It was not the first time that this ring had inexplicably rung.
In the lavish building, there were not many people in the lobby on the first floor. A staff member came up and asked, “Are you Miss Shen?”
Shen Yugui returned to her senses.
She carefully tucked the ring back into her clothes before looking at the staff member. “Yes, that’s me.”
“Please come with me. The General Manager is already waiting for you.”
Shen Yugui followed the staff into the elevator and did not react until she reached upstairs. “General Manager?”
‘It’s not Fei Nancheng who’s looking for me?’
The staff nodded and stood outside the conference room, pointing inside. “Our Investment Department General Manager is expecting you.”
A middle-aged man in his forties walked out to greet her and chuckled. “Miss Shen, we’re very interested in the Shen family’s new project and have decided to invest in it. Have you brought the contract?”
Shen Yugui. “??”
She looked at the person in front of her in astonishment and put her hand in her bag.
The contract had always been in her bag and she had never taken it out. How did he know about it? Could it be that… The butler told Fei Nancheng, and Fei Nancheng told him to call for her?
–
On the top floor, just after Fei Nancheng put away the ring, his WeChat notification rang. It was a voice call.
Fei Nancheng slowly picked up the phone and answered the call.
Chen Zifan’s voice sounded from the other side. “Elder Brother, that ugly woman is a gold digger. She’s only approaching you for your money!”
Fei Nancheng had already recovered from his usual detachedness. He remained silent, but Chen Zifan continued to prattle about what happened in school that day.
He frowned after listening to Chen Zifan. “Illegitimate daughter?”
“Yeah, didn’t you know? You mustn’t be fooled by her! Elder Brother, I hate illegitimate children the most. You know that my dad… Forget it. Anyway, I just can’t stand her!”
Fei Nancheng snorted coldly. Although he did not care about Chen Zifan, he did not want to see him being used like a fool. Fei Nancheng said casually, “You should grow up a little. Be careful you don’t get played by other people.”
He did not have the full picture and did not want to interfere in Chen Zifan’s life. There were some things that he needed to experience personally for him to grow up.
Chen Zifan was puzzled and was about to ask another question when a knock sounded on Fei Nancheng’s office door. The assistant opened the door and came in. He seemed to hesitate.
Fei Nancheng hung up and said, “Speak.”
Only then did the assistant say, “President Fei, Miss Shen is here.
“I’ve asked around. It was the Investment Department General Manager who called her to come over and sign the contract, saying that we want to invest in the Shen family’s project… The Old Madam called this morning specifically for this.”
Fei Nancheng’s expression instantly darkened.
She never mentioned the contract from last night to this morning. He thought that it was because she was not that thick-skinned, but he never expected that she would actually use Grandma!
Was he treating her too politely, such that she thought that she could do whatever she wanted?!
