Chapter 115: Mei Hua
"W-We have a problem!"
"Hm?" Ch Ying's eyebrows raised in curiosity as she looked up from her work desk.
She could sse the urgcy in the woman's voice.
"What's going on?" she asked in a serious tone.
The sadness that had previously clouded her face vanished, and instead, the cold and distant woman that everyone was accustomed to seeing emerged once more.
"I...I," the woman tried to speak but wasn't able to mutter any words.
Observing the woman's utter shock and pale complexion, Ch Ying let out a sigh and promptly rose from her seat, making her way towards her.
"Mei Hua, take a deep breath and try to calm down. You're welcome to speak with me about this matter, Ch Ying assured her, aiming to help Mei Hua relax.
Mei Hua was a woman of mesmerizing beauty, with an ageless allure that defied time.
Though her true age was in her early thirties, she possessed a youthful radiance that would easily lead one to believe she was in her early twties.
Her chanting face was reminisct of the most delicate and intricate porcelain artwork, delicately painted with elegance and grace.
Like a blooming lotus in the morning light, her skin was fair and flawless, adorned with a soft, natural glow that seemed to emanate from within.
Mei Hua's brows were finely arched, perfectly framing her captivating eyes.
They bore a subtle hint of determination and wisdom, which only added to the allure of her face.
Her high, sculpted cheekbones lt an air of sophistication to her appearance.
Her lips, like delicate rose petals, were gracefully curved, exuding a natural rosy hue that contrasted beautifully with her fair complexion.
Adorned with a touch of light makeup that hanced her natural beauty, Mei Hua carried herself with elegance and poise.
Her hair, as blue as the sky, cascaded down her shoulders like a silk waterfall, framing her chanting visage with an air of mystery and allure.
In her presce, one couldn't help but be captivated by the ethereal beauty that seemed to sur her.
Her ageless face held the wisdom of time, the charm of youth, and the grace of a thousand blooming flowers.

After soothing Mei Hua's distress, Ch Ying inquired about the reason for her abrupt trance. She knew that Mei Hua wouldn't barge in like that unless there was something of significant importance bothering her.
"Now are you feeling better?"
"Um." Mei Hua nodded and wiped away the tears that stained her porcelain cheeks.
She took a deep breath and began to explain the reason for her panicking.
"Th-The investor that we had be counting on for our new business suddly pulled out," Mei Hua stammered, her voice trembling.
"Without their support, we won't be able to keep the new business afloat. All our hard work will go to waste." Ch Ying's heart sank as she listed to Mei Hua's words, realizing the gravity of the situation.
"What on earth happed?!" Ch Ying exclaimed, her voice laced with frustration. "Why? Didn't they agree to the conditions we set for them?"
Mei Hua wiped away another tear and continued, "They claimed that due to unforese circumstances, they had to redirect their funds elsewhere. It's a devastating blow to our plans."
Ch Ying's mind raced, trying to come up with a solution.
"Everything was going as planned; I had everything under control, so why?" Ch Ying's mind raced as she tried to figure out what happed.
"Mei Hua, do you know where they divert their funds to?" Ch Ying inquired.
"I will investigate it,"
Mei Hua quickly pulled out her phone and began searching for any information about where the funds could have be redirected.
As she scrolled through various folders and financial reports, Ch Ying anxiously awaited her response.
After a few tse momts, Mei Hua's eyes wided in realization. She turned to Ch Ying and said,
"I think I found it. The funds were redirected to..." Mei Hua sopped.
"Who!" Ch Ying exclaimed impatitly, eager to hear the answer.
Mei Hua hesitated for a momt, her brows furrowing as she continued, "To the Yi family."
Ch Ying's heart sank as she realized what happed.
"Yi Guo, you despicable bastard!!" She yelled, her rage echoing loudly in the room.
"Yi family them again." Ch Ying muttered under her breath, her frustration evidt.
It wasn't the first time that the Yi family dared attack their business, but this time the business that Ch Ying was planning to do was especially important.
She had be working tirelessly for months, putting every ounce of her ergy into securing the deal.
The thought of the Yi family sabotaging her efforts made her blood boil with anger.
|Dingg|
Suddly, her phone started to ring, interrupting her anger. Ch Ying sighed in annoyance and reached for her phone.
She glanced at the scre, It was an unknown number, and curiosity got the better of her as she answered the call.
"Hello, who is this?" Ch Ying asked cautiously.
"Hello baby," a familiar voice said on the other d of the line.
Ch Ying's eyes wided in shock as she recognized the voice, her anger boiling within her.
"Yi Guo, you fucking dick! How dare you call me after all you did?" She seethed, her voice trembling with a mix of rage and frustration.
"Oh, darling, what did I do to make you this angry, haha, haha?" Yi Guo's voice sounded mocking and filled with a twisted sse of satisfaction.
Ch Ying could feel her blood boiling, her heart pounding in her chest. How could he have the audacity to call her, acting as if he didn't do anything.
"You fucking bastard, why did you steal our investor!"
"Hahaha, my dear Ch Ying, you've always be so naive," Yi Guo replied with a cunning tone, relishing in the tsion he had caused.
"Steal? Oh, that's such a harsh word. Let's say I merely convinced them that their interests would be better served by me. You know how persuasive I can be wh I want something."
Ch Ying clched her fists, trying to maintain her composure despite the rage boiling inside her.
"You know very well that the investor was committed to our project. We had an agreemt, and you broke it!"
Yi Guo let out another sinister laugh. "Agreemts are meant to be brok, my dear. Besides, they were more interested in the pottial of my latest vture. Can you blame them? It's not my fault if they see a brighter future with me."
"You manipulated them! It's not right, and you know it," Ch Ying shot back, trying to reason with him, though she knew he wouldn't list.
"Business is all about seizing opportunities, darling. And I seized it masterfully," Yi Guo gloated. "You should learn from me. The world is not for the weak and stimtal. It's a ruthless game, and you either play or get played."
"I won't let you get away with this," Ch Ying vowed, her determination flickering in her eyes.
"Oh, please, spare me your righteous indignation," Yi Guo said dismissively. "You're just upset because I beat you at your own game. But that's how the world works – the cunning prevails.
"And you know what I desire, don't you?
If you fulfill my wishes, I will..."
"Freaking die, you pig!" Without giving Yi Guo a chance to respond, Ch Ying abruptly ded the call. She had no inttion of subjecting herself to his manipulative words any further.
"Miss what are we going to do now?" Mei Hua asked with concern, her voice trembling slightly.
Ch Ying took a deep breath, her determination resurfacing. "We're not going to let him win," she declared, her eyes narrowing with a steely resolve.
"We'll find another way, let's go!"
"O-Okay!" Mei Hua nodded and followed after Ch Ying.
With that, Ch Ying and Mei Hua departed from the office building, resolute to find a solution to their predicamt.
