Ling Yue waited for the driver who would take her to Tong Zhou. She tapped her three inches heels to the floor. After a while, a black Rolls Royce latest version stopped in front of her. Bai Xu came out from the driver's seat.
"Miss Ling, please get in," he said politely.
"Are you going to take me there, Mr. Bai?" Ling Yue furrowed her brows.
Bai Xu nodded. He looked doubtful. Does he have to make her sit in the back? But his boss doesn't like someone else sitting next to him. Finally he let Ling Yue open the front passenger door. Ling Yue looked at the car's interior which turned out to be normal in it. More or less she knew about cars, because Ling Huansheng always talked about his hobby of fiddling with it. She thought it would be amazingly modified. Ling Yue was frozen when she saw the passenger seat behind. Xi Jian sat motionless with documents in his hands.
"I didn't know you were coming too," she said bluntly. Why he didn't make a noise so she could notice earlier? She thought she would go alone. Ling Yue looked at Bai Xu beside her with a look 'Care to explain Mr. Bai?'
Bai Xu cleared his throat when he sensed she looked at him oddly. "We will also survey there Miss Ling, so why don't we just go together?" he suddenly talked awkwardly.
Ling Yue and Bai Xu talked during the trip. Mileage that should have been only thirty minutes, delayed to an hour due to traffic jams. But surprisingly, Ling Yue did not feel bored because Bai Xu was a pleasant chatting companion until Xi Jian's voice came from behind. Obviously they had forgotten the ice king there.
"I didn't know you were a talkative type, Mr. Bai." Xi Jian imitated the way Ling Yue saying his name. Bai Xu felt cold sweat running down his back.
'Damn it! how could I forget the boss was there too.'
Bai Xu was carried away by Ling Yue's relaxed and frank attitude towards him. They talked like friends and she did not treat him like a superior like most people who knew him as Xi Jian's great assistant. Bai Xu glanced at the rearview mirror and found Xi Jian glaring at him before coming out. He didn't even wait for Bai Xu to open the door for him.
'I'm dead! He is angry!'
Ling Yue who had come out first looked at him. "Just talk if you want to talk," she said nonchalantly. Ling Yue glanced back a few times but that person only looked at his file. She let it up until finally completely forgot that they were traveling in threes.
They headed for polluted areas near factories place and Mrs. Wang's environment where Ling Yue visited before. Clearly no changes have occurred since the agreement was made. The river water still looks red and there are no plants that look fertile. They continued to walk toward the factory. Some people gathered in front of the factory to protest.
Various kinds of paperboard and baners installed in front of the entrance gate.
"You liars! Look at our farm! It still damage!"
"Fucking shit! You rich people didn't care about the fate of little people!"
"May God reward cunning people like you ten times!"
They shouted and kicked the gate fence. But there was no one else on the opposing side. The security guard just yelled and struck a club in his hand to frighten people.
Ling Yue turned to face Xi Jian. "Is this how King Empire fulfills the agreement?"
Xi Jian stared at the event unfold infront of them. "Bai Xu, find out what's happening here, we'll go inside."
"Right away, sir." Bai Xu flew to the starting point to find a trusted source. Xi Jian stepped forward but was blocked by Ling Yue.
"Do you want to die? Any death wish?" she mocked him.
For God's sake!
If they know he's the CEO of King Empire, those people can attack brutally. "Just wait here until Mr. Bai--"
Ling Yue felt a chill go down as the people there looked in their direction. She hurriedly took off her glasses and put them on Xi Jian before they approached and saw this man more clearly.
