CHAPTER 123
"Yes! Chairman Zhang is my grandfather!"
GBAGHANG!!
The words felt heavy in Ye Cheng's ears. He is her what now?
His expression fell. His heart clenched and his eyes widened a fraction. That was not the answer he was expecting.
Even though she had said it that day, he thought she was just addressing him that way as per he was way older than her and all that.
Besides, her family name wasn't Zhang but Bai. So how was he to know…
What the fuck had he been doing with his company's rival's granddaughter all these years?
No! No! No!
This just wasn't right. He felt a wave of different emotions right then. He was sad, angry, frustrated, even more, angry at himself than he was at Bai Qing Mei and Hao Huizhong.
She had been sent to infiltrate his company and get to him and she did that well. All these years together, it meant one thing, their friendship was a lie.
Arrghhhh!!
Ye Cheng screamed in his mind at how terrible and foolish he had been to be blinded by lies when the truth was just in his front the whole time.
"You are Bai and not Zhang." Ye Cheng managed to mumble out those words as she stared at her, hoping that what he heard wasn't the truth.
"He is my mother's father. "
Hearing the words, reality struck at him a second time and Ye Cheng shook his head. "No, No. I… God!" He brushed his hair with his hand as he turned towards the large glass window overlooking the city and kept quiet.
"Ye Cheng."
He turned around instantly when he heard Hao Huizhong call his name.
"Not another word from you. You had the nerve to want to ruin my company from the inside," He scoffed at him. "I am sorry to disappoint you, but your schemes had been found out. Return all the money transferred from the company to your alias account or else."
"Else what, you have nothing to prove that I did that."
"Is that so? I have all the details linking your account to the alias bank account that you transfer money to. I have other incriminating evidence against you Hao Huizhong. Not to speak off, I have this recording. You still want to play with me?"
At the mention of the recording, Bai Qing Mei narrowed her eyes at Ye Cheng's phone then shifted her gaze to the two men who were having it ho right about that moment.
Seeing that the distraction was clear, she quickly reached out for Ye Cheng's phone. Unfortunately for her, Ye Cheng had anticipated one of them would do that and his sharp reflex came into play as his hands got to his phone first.
"Don't even think about it." He shot her a glare, freezing her in place as his eyes washed over her annoying face. "Do you think I would be that stupid to have only one copy? I have it all saved and backed up and a copy waiting to be sent to the police."
"No."
His cold and domineering gaze returned. No longer was he soft. No longer was he going to be merciful to the ones who wanted him dead.
He raised his brows at Bai Qing Mei questioningly, waiting for her to speak.
"Please don't. We could go to jail for that."
"You could! You knew yet you did it? Are you serious right now?"
"Please," Bai Qing Mei begged again. She could not go to jail and have her name soiled. It would bring shame to her family.
"No, jail is to nice for you too. Your grandfather would just bail you out."
"Thank you."
"Save it. In honour of our past friendship, I would forget you two ever exist but everything stolen from my company must be returned or else, I would make sure you both regret crossing paths with me."
"Ye Cheng," Hao Huizhong called his name once more, earning him another cold gaze.
"Get out of my company and get out of my life, forever. Let this be a warning to your grandfather, he should take his eyes from my company or I would be coming for his." Ye Cheng straightened up as the atmosphere in the room suddenly became denser and choking.
"Oh, and tell him I would be returning the gesture he showed. Get out of my company."
"Ye Cheng I am…"
"No Bai Qing Mei, you are nothing near sorry. Please leave before I change my mind and do something I should not."
Slowly she picked her bag and Hao Huzhong got up as well. Together they made their way to the door of his office as his gaze escorted them away.
Just when Hao Huizhong was about opening the door, Ye Cheng's voice broke out again, making them halt in their steps.
"By the way, take the trash you call spies out with you. If you even dare leave anyone and I find that person, I would make him or her regret the day they were born and I would submit this audio and all other evidence to the police and make you serve a really long term in jail."
His gaze was directed to Hao Huizhong as he knew he was the one implanting spies like chips of virus in his company.
Without saying a word and with anger etched n his face, Hao Huizhong turned his gaze from Ye Cheng to Bai Qing Mei before opening the door for her to step out and followed after her.
Quickly Ye Cheng picked his phone and called Han Qing Qing. "Let the security know, never to allow those two into my company ever again."
"Yes, sir." Hearing her boss's order, Han Qing Qing's face lit up. 'Finally!'
She was happy her boss had now come to rid himself of Bai Qing Mei and the untrustworthy Hao Huizhong.
The call cut and Ye Cheng picked his empty glass and smashed it on the ground in anger.
"Damn it." Even though he acted cold to them, he was very much angry and hurt by their betrayal.
They were the best friends he had in his life and that too turned out to be all a lie.
