At this point, almost everyone seated in the room had weird expressions on their faces, they didn't know whether to believe their colleague who they have worked with for so long or the new CEO who seemed so sure of all the things she had listed.
They were all in a dilemma, but none of them dared to open their mouths to say anything;as far as they were concerned, they would keep their fingers crossed,after all, Han Guangming didn't look confident, which meant that there had to be an element of truth in what the CEO was saying and they wouldn't risk their jobs for what they weren't sure of.
With Zhou Ling's eyes still trained on him,Han Guangming was squirming in his seat. Her eyes gave him the feeling of being seen through and he didn't like that one bit.
After staring him down and seeing that he had no intention of owning up to his misdeeds, Zhou Ling continued.
"Mr Han, in your contribution, you said something along the lines of making the company grow..." she stopped and twirled the pen in her hand between her fingers, appearing as if she was thinking of what to say or how to frame her question.
" What did you mean by that sentence ' it will help the company grow' I want a definite answer. " A blood curdling smile in place of the amused smile she had before. It seemed to be saying ' I dare you to lie and I'll drain the blood from your body down to the last drop and then devour your soul.'
Looking at Zhou Ling's face which seemed to resemble the king of hell collecting debts, he hesitated on what to say, he had a nagging feeling that this was his last chance at redemption, but he just brushed it aside and decided to play by ear.
"I meant the literal meaning CEO Zhou. "
" Oh really! I could have sworn you meant giving people who actually have potentials but refused to sleep with you for benefits a hard time. "
Hearing her words which were vulgar but said in a nonchalant manner, some of the people in the room could barely keep their composure, while others went into a coughing fit.
" Silence!" Zhou Ling suddenly said. It was said in the normal way a person would speak but you could hear the underlying threat. The room instantly fell into silence so much that you could hear the sound, if a pin was suddenly dropped.
" Why the noise? You think my words are vulgar? If you can't bare to hear them said out loud then don't engage in them. " She said in a rather slow manner. Any one looking at her could see how much she was enjoying the show, even though she was part of it.
" Alright then Mr Han, I'm giving you one last chance. Do you or do you not admit to the things I just listed. "
" I don't admit to them. "
" Very well then. Display the evidence on the projector. " Zhou Ling said to her assistant Zhao Caijing.
With words like that from her mouth, Han Guangming's complexion turned ashen.
