As soon as he arrived at work, Fei Hu felt that something was off in the atmosphere of the company. Everyone was moving hurriedly, as if facing a great enemy, especially Wang Qian. She had the rental car drive directly to the steps of the lobby and then rushed into the elevator without even glancing at Fei Hu, who was standing nearby.
What was going on? Fei Hu felt extremely puzzled. Just as he was trying to figure it out, the elevator doors suddenly opened, and Wang Qian poked her head out, asking Fei Hu, "Has Miss Ye arrived yet?"
Fei Hu was taken aback and quickly replied, "Yes, she should be here soon."
After hearing this, Wang Qian retreated back into the elevator. It was then that Fei Hu noticed the arrow indicating that the elevator was in motion. It turned out that Wang Qian had been standing inside the elevator thinking about something and hadn’t actually gone up. This situation seemed a bit strange; Fei Hu rarely saw Wang Qian like this. First of all, she held a high position in the company, and secondly, everyone knew about her relationship with Ye Wei. Generally speaking, nothing could faze her. So what was going on with her today?
As noon approached, Fei Hu suddenly received a call from Ye Xiaofei. She asked very sternly, "Did you go out to dinner with Wang Qian last night? Tell me the truth."
Fei Hu thought to himself, what’s with the attitude? I’m not afraid of you eating me alive, but he sensed that Ye Xiaofei's tone was off. He paused for a moment and replied softly, "Yes, is something wrong? The company seems a bit off today."
"Just focus on your work and don’t worry about anything else. Tell me if she received any phone calls during dinner or mentioned anything specific. Think carefully," Ye Xiaofei continued to speak harshly, which made Fei Hu uncomfortable.
Fei Hu was a smart person; he knew what constituted a Major Incident and what was a Trivial Matter. So he immediately said, "Yes, she did receive a call; it seemed to be from the chairman." At this point, he paused again, covering the mouthpiece with his hand and looking around to see that there wasn’t anyone in the lobby before raising the phone again.
Ye Xiaofei asked on the other end of the line, "Is it inconvenient for you to talk right now? If so, don’t say anything. I’ll have Yingzi come pick you up to go to the villa later. We can discuss everything in detail once we’re there." As soon as Ye Xiaofei finished speaking, she hung up. Fei Hu listened to the dial tone for a long time before coming back to his senses; he felt that another Major Incident might be about to happen.
Not long after, Personnel Officer Miss Li came over to Fei Hu and said, "Miss Ye wants you to go help out at the villa; please get ready!"
Upon hearing this, Fei Hu deliberately widened his eyes and said, "I’m not going! I’m just a security guard, not a laborer. Why do I always have to go? That work is too hard; I can’t do it."
Miss Li chuckled and said, "Every time Miss Ye asks you to go means she values you. Others would want to go but don’t have this opportunity. So stop complaining! Starting this month, I’ll raise your salary by one level; does that work for you?"
Fei Hu was delighted upon hearing this. He had intentionally said it that way, not expecting to get a raise as well; it was truly a win-win situation. He quickly said to Miss Li, "Thank you! When the salary is paid next month, I'll treat you to dinner."
"Sure! But don't go back on your word! If you don't treat me then, you'll be a little dog," Miss Li said with a light laugh as she turned to leave. Fei Hu hurriedly tidied up the table, and the security guard coming on duty exchanged a few routine words with him before he walked towards the entrance.
As soon as Team Leader Wang saw Fei Hu, he smiled and asked, "Is there another good job? Do you want to take me along?"
"Yes! The toilet in the villa is clogged. Do you want to come with me?" Fei Hu laughed heartily. The two joked around at the door, and just then, Yingzi pulled up in her little BMW at the entrance. Fei Hu waved at Team Leader Wang and jumped into the car.
After driving for a while, Yingzi slowed down and nodded at Fei Hu, asking, "What's wrong? Did something major happen at the company? Sister Xiaofei seems to be in a really bad mood today."
Fei Hu replied coldly, "When has she ever been in a good mood? It's always like this. However, today there is indeed something strange in the company; everyone seems very tense. Even walking is noticeably faster than usual."
"Hehe! Did Sister Xiaofei scold you again? You look hilarious! Why bother getting upset over a girl? You should have a bigger heart! Sister Xiaofei has a soft heart but a sharp tongue; she treats you pretty well. If there's an issue, I think it's your problem. Just pay attention; things are busy now, so you really can't throw a tantrum and affect her work," Yingzi advised earnestly as she drove.
Tch, still showing sisterly affection; in the end, it's all his fault. If he had known this would happen, Fei Hu wouldn't have said those things earlier. They arrived at the villa shortly after. As soon as Fei Hu got out of the car, he greeted Ye Cheng, who was tending to the flowers in the yard. Sister Wu heard voices and hurried out from the living room. Upon seeing Fei Hu, she smiled and said, "You little rascal! You go out and forget to come back and play; it makes big brother complain about you every day."
Fei Hu smiled apologetically and greeted Sister Wu before following Yingzi upstairs. After sitting in Ye Xiaofei's study for a short while, Ye Xiaofei rushed in, panting.
"Quickly tell me about what happened with Wang Qian last night. What did you two do? I want to know who leaked this secret," Ye Xiaofei said eagerly as she sat down next to Fei Hu.
Fei Hu was momentarily at a loss for words; what could he say about what they did? Did he need to mention kissing too? The thought made him chuckle; this woman was indeed a bit domineering.
"I'm asking you something; why are you laughing? Do you find it particularly funny?" Ye Xiaofei suddenly got angry and punched Fei Hu lightly on his arm, clearly very upset.
Yingzi was an outsider; from Fei Hu's laughter, she could tell that there were definitely some things between him and Wang Qian that couldn't be shared with outsiders. So she quickly tried to ease the tension by saying, "Think about it: did Wang Qian show any unusual behavior last night? That's key. As for whether you had tea or dinner together, that's not important."
"Yingzi is the one who can talk," Fei Hu thought for a moment and said, "I don't know why, but yesterday Wang Qian insisted on treating me to dinner. To find out the truth, I went with her. During the meal, she asked about my relationship with Ye Xiaofei and later mentioned grandpa, but I managed to dodge the questions."
"What does that vixen mean by this? Didn't you say she received some call from Ye Wei midway? What did they talk about? Can you remember anything?" Ye Xiaofei asked anxiously.
Fei Hu scratched his head and thought for a while before suddenly saying, "I heard her mention something about Hong Kong Audit Firm. After saying that, her expression changed drastically, and she left immediately. Since she had drunk quite a bit, she left her car keys with me."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofei immediately stood up, clenched her fists, and let out a long breath. "It's over; we've lost everything. All the effort during this time has gone to waste." Ye Xiaofei's face fell in disappointment. At that moment, Fei Hu felt a pang of sympathy for her. This woman had it tough too; like him, she lost her parents early and was raised by her grandfather.
Just then, Ye Cheng pushed the door open and walked in. He gently asked, "Child, what happened? Tell me so I can help you analyze it."
Ye Xiaofei sighed and said, "The Hong Kong auditors I invited are coming to our company. It took a lot of effort to schedule them for March. Unexpectedly, yesterday they sent a confirmation letter that was faxed to the front desk. The girl who received the fax might be one of Ye Wei's people. Although the fax eventually reached me, the information has already been leaked. After what Fei Hu said, it seems everything is true."
Ye Cheng sat down and spoke softly, "You must be careful when dealing with them. You've stepped on their toes this time. Not only can this not continue, but they will also start to retaliate. You need to be cautious; if you're not careful, they might band together to push you out of Sheng Wei."
"Dream on! They want me out of Sheng Wei? The only way I'll leave is if I choose to," Ye Xiaofei exclaimed angrily. Her outburst surprised Fei Hu; he really didn't expect things to escalate like this.
Ye Cheng waved his hand at Ye Xiaofei to calm her down and continued, "This may seem like a bad thing at first glance, but it's actually a good thing. At least it has made me realize that Sheng Wei indeed has significant issues because the stronger their retaliation is, the bigger the problem must be. For now, don't bring this up again; let's observe how things unfold. Inaction can sometimes lead to action; eventually, the fox will reveal its tail."
Ye Xiaofei nodded and said, "Grandpa, I want to transfer Fei Hu to the office. Having him as security isn't helping me at all. My influence is too weak right now; even a small clerk is secretly siding with Ye Wei."
"No way, child. It's lonely at the top; you could ruin him and he might not even be able to keep his security job," Ye Cheng said earnestly.
