Chapter 135: 135 Fatal Blow

Although they had worked together for several years, Yi Lixing still felt a chill down his spine when he thought about how He Xing was five or six years his junior.

Yi Lixing unconsciously straightened his back, unable to maintain the previously feigned relaxed deanor.

He folded his arms across his chest and mustered the courage to look at He Xing, “Manager He, the He Group allocates several million in public relations fees every year. You’re not going to tell

you’re unaware of this, are you?”

A chill swept across He Xing’s face, but his tone beca very gentle, “The He Group has never relied on such despicable thods as bribery and corruption. Our public relations budget is high, yes, but it’s all used for normal business communications. In the whole industry, we are the largest, but our public relations budget is the smallest.”

“I’ve been the Public Relations Director at the He Group for several years, Manager He. You can’t fool

with that,” Yi Lixing felt a surge of panic, but his expression remained calm, even showing deliberate disdain as he spoke.

He Xing suddenly stood up, his hand moving like lightning. Before Yi Lixing realized what was happening, He Xing’s hand was already in the outside pocket of Yi Lixing’s suit, and when it ca back, it was clutching sothing resembling a pen between his index and middle fingers.

Yi Lixing’s face turned ashen, “Give

back the pen.” He reached out to snatch the pen back but He Xing easily dodged his attempt.

As He Xing leisurely disassembled the pen, he said with a smile, “Director Yi, I haven’t been unfair to you, have I? Your academic qualifications are not outstanding, and your skills aren’t top-notch. Yet, I let you sit in the director’s position in the Public Relations Departnt for so many years. And you? You’ve sold the He Group’s tender docunts several tis. All I did was dismiss you, but here you are with a recording pen trying to entrap . You really are a good dog I’ve raised.”

“What did you say?” Yi Lixing was furious, standing up abruptly with his chest heaving dramatically. It was clear he was in a bad mood, even on the verge of lashing out.

Suddenly, the voice from the pen erged, precisely recapping the conversation between He Xing and Yi Lixing they just had.

Yi Lixing’s face turned from pale to red, and his imposing presence sharply declined. Glaring at He Xing, it looked as if flas might burst from his eyes.

He Xing hit the pause button, capped the pen, and, in a conciliatory manner, slid the recording pen into his own pocket, “Director Yi, I find this recorder quite ingenious. Why don’t you give it to

as a gift?”

“If Manager He fancies it, of course, I have no reason to refuse.” Yi Lixing said through clenched teeth, as if he wanted to shatter them.

The smile on He Xing’s face grew stronger as he elegantly took a sip of his coffee, “Director Yi, I have two things I’d like you to pass on to Young Master Yang. Would that be convenient for you?”

At these words, Yi Lixing was stunned into a ridiculous, comical open-mouthed expression. It took him a good while to speak again, but when he did, he asked in a silly tone, “How… how did you find out?”

“Is it that difficult?” He Xing spread his hands in resignation. “I just had soone follow you for two days, and everything ca to light.”

As soon as there was a problem with the He Group’s project, He Xing imdiately suspected sabotage and discreetly arranged for an investigation. Eventually, the target focused on Yi Lixing, who had left the company a few months earlier.

The subsequent investigation was straightforward, just a matter of following the trail.

Yi Lixing’s complexion was beyond pale, utterly bloodless. For a mont, his eyes flickered with hesitation, conflict, fierceness, desperation, and then all transford into pleading, “Manager He, it was a mont of foolishness. Please, a great man doesn’t dwell on the past. Forgive

this once.”

At this point, Yi Lixing bore no resemblance to the arrogant man who had arrived earlier. From the look of him now, he would agree to kneel on the ground if only He Xing would let him off the hook.

Disappointnt was unmistakable on He Xing’s face. He slowly shook his head, “Even if I, as your master, am benevolent, I wouldn’t like a dog that bites

ti and again. Letting you resign was the last chance I gave you. From this mont on, our colleague relationship is over. Take care of yourself.”

Having said this, he didn’t linger and left straightaway with his briefcase.

Liang Tao had been standing at the entrance of the Cafe the entire ti. Seeing He Xing co out, he hurriedly took the briefcase with both hands. Both n were around 1.8 ters tall, yet Liang Tao seed dwarfed in front of He Xing.

On the way back, Liang Tao drove while He Xing sat in the back seat, composing an email.

When the car arrived at the He Group, He Xing had just finished drafting the email. He pressed the send button, “Have legal prioritize checking the email I sent for any legal loopholes. If there aren’t any, instruct the Public Relations Departnt to send out the email.”

Liang Tao affird with a nod, not daring to say another word.

He certainly knew the content of the email He Xing ntioned, and he was also well aware that He Xing’s eting with Yi Lixing that day was a stratagem. That was precisely why he felt more terrified—his back was soaked in cold sweat, and had he not retained a sliver of rationality, he likely wouldn’t have been able to keep the car steady.

Yi Lixing used to be the Public Relations Manager, the best at wheeling and dealing within the He Group. He had been very kind to Liang Tao, even more so than to the average manager or director. Because of his kindness, Liang Tao would occasionally chat with Yi Lixing.

Of course, it was always Yi Lixing who initiated the conversations with Liang Tao, who was too shy to refuse.

Previously, Liang Tao didn’t think much of it. But that day, as he stood outside the Cafe waiting for He Xing, he finally understood so questions he’d never considered before—why Yi Lixing was so kind to him, specifically because he was He Xing’s Assistant, the only assistant.

Moreover, ever since Yi Lixing left the company, he always managed to casually bring up questions related to He Xing in their conversations. Fortunately, Liang Tao genuinely had no sure insight into his unpredictable leader, so each ti they touched upon the topic of He Xing, their conversation ended.

With this realization, Liang Tao didn’t dare delay further. He blocked all of Yi Lixing’s contact information. Not only that, but he also deleted the contact information of all the people who had completed their departure procedures from his phone.

After doing this, he felt much relieved and was finally able to arrange the tasks He Xing had assigned without any ntal burden.

Nobody in the entire group dared to take He Xing’s assignnts lightly. Within less than half an hour, the legal departnt revised the draft, the Public Relations Departnt polished it, and finally, the email that caused a small stir in A City’s business circles was sent out.

This was Yi Lixing’s judgnt, and his sentence. It would follow him for the rest of his life.
