Chapter 153 - The Mafia King's Dangerous Warning To Ruoi
A few days later on one usual morning, Wei was ready to leave when the Old Madam stopped. "Wait there, Wei."
He paused in his steps and quietly looked back. At the sa ti, Ruoi ca rushing too from the other side. "I apologize, Old Madam, for the lateness. It is my first day so I had to prepare a lot of stuff."
The Old Madam said, "It's fine," she glanced at Wei and said, "From today onwards, Ruoi will work with you in your office."
Ruoi gave a delicate smile. Her stargazed eyes were focused on Wei.
Wei didn't react.
"She is a highly qualified MBA graduate and I have decided that her talent will be of greater use if she works for us. So, she will join all your projects and work with you. You are going to the office anyway. Take her with you from now on."
Ruoi smiled. "Thank you Old Madam for believing in . I will be sure not to disappoint you."
"Hm," she coldly humd.
His dark, silent gaze fell upon her for just a mont and then he turned away.
At the gate near his fancy Porsche, Ruoi could hardly contain her excitent. Her plan was perfect. Going together with him to the company and working alongside him in his office will give her nurous opportunities to get closer to Wei.
Heh. While you will be stuck in the house trying to win everybody, which will not work anyway, I would already make Wei mine, she sneered. You waste your ti in the family. I will invest mine in Wei.
She glanced at her side and Wei's handso side profile that shone under the golden sunlight took her breath away. His expression was icy in contrast to the sunny atmosphere which made look even more heavenly.
She spoke with a soft and breathy voice, "Wei. I am so happy to work with you-"
Ignoring her, Wei took a seat in his car. Ruoi felt awkward as she was cut off. She cleared her throat and stepped in the car to sit beside him.
The temperature lowered to a threatening degree that made it instantly chilly in the car. The driver promptly said, "Miss, Please sit in the front. Boss doesn't like anybody to sit with him in the backseat."
Except Madam Lixue of course.
He was the sa driver who had picked Lihua and Wei one day outside her apartnt complex. The sa day Lihua got angry at him and abruptly left the car.
Since that day, it was clear to him that only one woman was allowed to sit beside him.
Ruoi stiffened. She gave a dirty look at the driver. She sweetly smiled at Wei. "Wei. Since we are going to work together, I thought that we could discuss the projects while on the ride. I have studied the current projects of Jiang Industries and I have so insights to share. You will definitely like to hear them."
No response.
Finally, Wei parted his lips that brightened Ruoi's smile.
Of course, he will agree. n like won with whom they can discuss their work burden too.
"Leave without her," he dispassionately said to the driver.
The smile on her face froze.
The driver nodded. "Yes, Boss!"
"W-wait! Wei you…" she bit her lip.
"Miss, if you cannot sit in the front, then we have to leave you."
Her face twisted in anger and embarrassnt. Even though she felt humiliated, she couldn't let him go alone. "Sorry Wei. I will sit in the front."
As the car drove by along the street, Ruoi fidgeted with her fingers. She turned and smiled. "Wei. I heard that Jiang Industries is getting a big bid. I have so ideas about the marketing and advertising part-"
The car took a sudden sharp turn that threw Ruoi aside and banged her cheek on the window pane. "Owww!!!"
It hit her hard and a sharp pain shot up in her cheek that brimd her eyes in tears. She furiously glared at the driver. "You! What are you doing!? I hurt my face!"
She cupped her cheek that was stinging in pain.
The driver said, "Apologies, Miss. A dog suddenly jumped out in the front and I had to take an imdiate turn."
Her expression turned ugly.
I got hit because of a dog!?
She realized that she wasn't acting ladylike and elegant like how she was supposed to. She forced herself to smile. "Oh, I see. Just be careful."
She looked back and found that Wei was still calmly seated without any change in his deanor as if nothing had happened. He didn't seem to be angry either.
As the ride went on, she realized that the road was getting too lonely and deserted. The driver then suddenly raced the car in a zigzag manner, taking dangerous and extre turns. Her eyes widened in horror and her heart jumped out in her throat as she was thrown sideways back and forth. Her body and face got hit in different angles as if she was run over by a car. The seat belt wasn't of much help to her.
"S-stop it! Stop!" She exclaid, feeling terrified. "How are you driving!? You will kill us!"
No response.
She cried and looked back. "Wei! Tell him to stop! He will kill us!"
Wei didn't bother.
She was aghast to get no reaction out of them.
After a few minutes of this deadly roller coaster ride, the car ca to a stop. By that point, Ruoi's makeup, hair do and clothes were in a complete ss. Her face was ghastly pale and colorless as if her soul flew away. Her heart pounded in her chest. It took a few minutes to realize that this terrifying ride was finally over. She could hardly believe that she was alive and still breathing.
"Boss, we have reached the office," the driver said.
Wei nodded.
Ruoi was stunned.
What is happening? How can Wei act as if nothing happened?
Her body was still shaking in fear and her lips trembled as she asked, "W-Wei...y-you won't say anything to this driver? Just look at how he drove! He could have killed us!"
Wei glanced at her. He thought for a mont and took a piece of paper and a pen. Ruoi was scared and confused.
He handed her the paper after writing sothing in it. There was only a single line written on it that sent shivers down her spine as she read it.
'Don't you dare disturb Lixue and again or the next ride will be your last.'
