Chapter 14
Boss! Miss Gong is Headed to the Sheng Corporation!
The manager had prepared for this and had a trick up his sleeve. “That contract will only take effect once you start working here. Because the law has not taken effect, our company has no relations with you!”
Despite her naivety, Gong Mo knew that there was a problem with this. She interrogated, “Why is that so?”
“My apologies, Miss Gong,” said the manager coldly. “This is an order from above.”
An order from above? Gong Mo walked out of the office. Who had she offended? She thought dejectedly. Oh right! Sheng Donglin! It must have been him!
The Sheng Family was the wealthiest family in Nanjiang City and only had to say a word to the magazine publisher to get them to do what the family wanted. Gong Mo clenched her fist, determined to get back at Sheng Donglin. He had not only stripped her of her innocence, but he wanted her job too? That b*stard!
…
Sheng Nanxuan slid out of the swimming pool of the five-star hotel, revealing his perfect six-pack. Upon seeing him come out of the water, his assistant rushed forward and handed him a towel. After wiping his face with it, he threw it back to his assistant and then walked away.
His assistant followed him and reported, “Miss Gong is starting her first day of work today and she bought a pregnancy test on the way there.”
Sheng Nanxuan halted in his tracks for a few seconds before resuming his walk. “Go on.”
His assistant observed Sheng Nanxuan’s expression discreetly and lightly coughed. “Miss Gong is supposed to be working at the magazine publisher Delightful Talk and their editor-in-chief is Su Ping, a long-time family friend of the Sheng Family. Miss Gong has been fired before even starting her first day.”
“Delightful Talk?”
“They are headquartered in the capital and belong to the entertainment king of the capital, the Yu Family. The Nanjiang operation is a branch of their operations and it is the only branch in the entire country.
“Humph,” scoffed Sheng Nanxuan coldly. “Buy their stock!”
His assistant was stunned. He was too cruel! This must have been a decision made between the Su Family and the Sheng Family, and had nothing to do with the Yu Family. Boss’s order may cause a global financial crisis. How could the inconsequential Yu Family survive this?
Sheng Nanxuan seemed to read his assistants thoughts and said frostily, “It’s their fault for not keeping their dog on a leash.”
Delightful Talk was owned by the Yu Family and Su Ping was merely one of their dogs. This dog had bullied Gong Mo and simply beating the dog to death would not suffice to placate his anger. The Yu Family should also be punished! The Yu Family was the wealthiest family in the entire country, but Sheng Nanxuan was not afraid of them. He had always felt that the game had gotten stale. The Yu Family had reigned for long enough. It was time for the top position to be occupied by someone else.
Upon returning to his room, Sheng Nanxuan changed his clothes. After receiving a call, his assistant’s expression changed dramatically and he rushed briskly to Sheng Nanxuan’s door. “Boss! Miss Gong is heading to the Sheng Corporation!”
…
Sheng Corporation’s office building was located in Sheng Industrial Park. Gong Mo had visited it with Sheng Donglin before and he had set up a pass for her. She took out the pass and walked right in with a swagger. She noticed the puzzling absence of Sheng Donglin’s secretary when she arrived outside his office. It was a good thing because now she could just barge in directly. If not, Sheng Donglin would never agree to see her!
She pushed the office door open. The office was empty inside and there was no sign of Sheng Donglin. Did he not come to work today?
Just then, she heard voices from within.
Gong Mo turned her ear towards the noise. Unable to hear clearly, she decided to enter, closing the door behind her.
Sheng Donglin’s office had a connecting break room and washroom and the voices seemed to be coming from within the break room.
When Gong Mo reached the break room, she heard the aroused moans of a woman. “Donglin… be gentler…”
