' What was his name again? ' Ying Yue wondered as she calmly went to sit down at her designed place, right at the center of the end of the table, like always...
She cozily sat down, still wearing her hoodie: leaving quite an impression for the people in the room who had stood up; seeing Bo Jiang enter the room.
They were already informed that they would have the opportunity to meet the mighty and mysterious female president of the famous Starlight empire. As nobody really knew what the president looked, the executives from Chen Corporation were very excited to meet her for the first time.
Since Starlight was very reputed for being a company that climbed very fast in the business world but still had a strong foundation, which was very rare for new companies to be, it was even a real honour to meet her and also because the president doesn't usually show her face on the media.
Nonetheless, they were extremely confused to see that a young and mysterious girl sitting down at the president seat, ' Was this his niece or something? '
Bo Jiang immediately introduced her to the people from Chen Corporation, " Mr. Chen and executives this is our president, Miss Ying. "
While his name was being called, Chen Li finally came back to sense and realized who was comfortably sitting in the president seat: the girl that called him an annoying bug!
" Oh, hi CEO dude! " Ying Yue looked at him while lightly waving her hand, her eyes hiding her thoughts.
" What are you doing here? " Chen Li frowned deeply, his voice cold as ice.
Hearing him, Ying Yue confusedly blinked her eyes and looked over at Bo Jiang. Bo Jiang simply lifted his eyebrow like he knew what was about to happen.
Ying Yue then leaned a bit over him and put her hand to slightly hide her mouth and whispered to Bo Jiang, "Why didn't you tell me that the president of Chen Corporation was deaf? Now I look so stupid! "
She was whispering.
Yeah...- not really. She purposely spoke in a tone that almost everyone in the room could hear.
Ying Yue then turned back to Chen Li and gracefully did some sign gestures while saying the words she was doing in sign language.
" I'm - sorry - I - didn't - know - that - you - were - deaf! "Ying Yue mimed the sign language she learned last year but still pronounced the words slowly, making sure that she didn't speak too fast.
Chen Li felt a very apparent vein on his forehead appear as he tightened his fist in anger.
' Does she take me for a freaking idiot?! '
Yeah, she was.
Bo Jiang had obviously already presented her identity but the CEO dude still asked what she was doing here. It was even their company that wanted to see her! If he was not stupid then what is he?
' Such a stupid CEO...but just like I predicted...' Ying Yue inwardly sighed, not forgetting to praise herself.
" I'm sorry to inform you that, but I am not deaf. And please mind your manners, it's not really appropriate for you to call me CEO dude. " Chen Li barely held his anger in as he spoke in a deadly voice.
Ying Yue let out a small laugh but quickly covered her mouth and innocently replied, " I understand! I'm sorry for the misunderstanding but why should you be the one to feel sorry? Shouldn't you be happy to announce to me that you aren't deaf? And the way you said CEO dude..."
Ying Yue didn't manage to finish her sentence before breaking into an unrestrained laugh.
Clutching her stomach from laughing too hard, Ying Yue wiped off the tears of joy coming out of her eyes and tried to regain control of her emotions.
" I'm so - sorry! I - I - I'm sorry just excuse me a moment! " Ying Yue quickly said before hiding her head into her arms on the table and laughing away.
Chen Li could see her little shoulders going up and down from giggling and felt extremely angry but also a little confused.
For a short yet long minute, all we could hear was the soft giggles of the young girl sitting in the president's place.
Everyone was too shocked to do anything and was very confusedly looking around, trying to find someone to explain the situation to them.
As for Bo Jiang, he just helplessly held his forehead but he still couldn't conceal his grin, ' She really knows how to get back at people... '
Finally, Chen Li couldn't take it anymore and slammed the table hard, making Ying Yue eventually lift her face and look up to the mad man.
" Enough! "
" Oufff! " Ying Yue took a deep breath to refocus quickly, her cheeks were hurting a bit.
Ying Yue then smiled apologetically to Chen Li and said, " I'm sorry! It wasn't you, it was me. I'm so sorry for my rude behaviour. Let's move on, I'm ready now! "
Chen Li tried to shoot daggers with his eyes, aiming at Ying Yue, ' What do you mean move on? After this humiliation, you just want to move on like that? And what does she mean by it wasn't you, it was me? Why does it sound so much like a breakup line? '
Ying Yue innocently looked at him and asked, " Does CEO du-I mean Mr. Chen want compensation? What would you like to have from a weak girl like me? "
Ying Yue tried to play the victim and the ' weak ' girl but Chen Li obviously didn't buy it.
Just as CEO du-, sorry, I mean...
Just as Chen Li wanted to open his mouth to get back at Ying Yue, the door of the room slammed open and an extremely attractive man walked in, followed by countless bodyguards dressed in black.
" Who dares ask compensation from my girlfriend? " a domineering voice echoed in the room.
