Sugar And Spice: The CEO’s Feisty Wife Chapter 174
Advertisement
Feng Xinying and Zhou Ah Ming came out of the StarManage office. Zhou Ah Ming said, "Madam, with the way my reputation is I feel I am going to be more of a burden to you than help. Even though Mr. Xie Yuansheng has given me a fantastic job offer, it would be wrong if I continue with you. I think you would be better off without me…"
Feng Xinying looked at him and replied, "If that was the case, Xie Yuansheng would have never employed you in the first place. Have faith in yourself. Soon all this will be forgotten."
Zhou Ah Ming exhaled heavily and then nodded. They sat in the car. As the car started, he told her that she should carefully read the contract terms so that she shouldn't be left in the dark. Then he started telling her his previous incidents regarding Wu Bosun. He spoke very nicely of him however at the end he became sad.
Feng Xinying listened to him patiently and then when she saw that he had become sad, she smiled and said, "I am sure you will like working with me too."
Zhou Ah Ming gave a broad smile. "I don't doubt it." He looked outside the car and seeing the known locality, said, "Can you please drop me here? My house is five minutes walk from here."
"Sure," said Feng Xinying as she instructed the driver to stop.
Feng Xinying reached Xie Yuansheng's office in another half an hour. When she walked inside she found him talking to some managers. As soon as they saw her, they bowed. Xie Yuansheng got up from his chair and pulled a chair for her to sit by his side. She sat and realized that a meeting was going on so she took the contract out of her purse while the rest of the people in the meeting discussed. She became so absorbed in reading her contract that she didn't realize when the meeting got over and when they all left.

Xie Yuansheng took the papers from her hand and said, "What is it that is keeping you away from me?"
"Those are the contract papers from StarManage," she replied as she puffed her cheeks.
"What about Starline? You should have joined that," he said.
Feng Xinying narrated her experience at Starline and in the end said, "I am not happy with it."
Xie Yuansheng's eyebrows knitted as he heard how Bi Yu talked to Feng Xinying. He didn't say anything and looked at Feng Xinying. "So what is your decision?"
Meanwhile in the Starline agency, Bi Yu had received the news that Feng Xinying had gone to StarManage. She was upset and thought how clever this new girl was. She was sure that along with Zhou Ah Ming both must have gone there just to tease her. However she didn't want to take chances. So she crafted a text message in which she wrote that she would give them a level two agent and also an apartment if they sign the contract with her. She sent this message to Zhou Ah Ming. She added in the text message that no one in the country would save Feng Xinying from Bi Yu's wrath if she wouldn't agree to her terms.
When Zhou Ah Ming received this message, he became nervous. He knew that Bi Yu was able to create a lot of problems in the circle. He forwarded the message to Feng Xinying who was incidentally sitting with Xie Yuansheng. When she read the message, she was stunned.
She read the offer and it looked like that Bi Yu really wanted her to join her agency. Feng Xinying wondered what to do.
"What is it Xinying?" asked Xie Yuansheng.
"Nothing Yuansheng," she answered. She didn't want him to get involved in it. She bit her lip and crafted a reply. Then she left her mobile and went to the washroom. There she looked at herself in the mirror and wondered how would she deal with the people around her.

When she came back after washing her face, she saw that Xie Yuansheng was talking to someone on the phone. She went and took her papers and then walked to the sofa to lie down over there. Soon she fell asleep. Xie Yuansheng, who was working on his computer, smiled as he walked towards her. He removed the papers that were now fallen on her face and covered her with his coat.
Next day, when there was no call from either Zhou Ah Ming or Feng Xinying, Bi Yu was riled up. She kept asking her assistant if there was any news from Feng Xinying but it was noon and there was no news from her. Angrily she called Zhou Ah Ming to personally ask him about the offer.
Zhou Ah Ming replied, "Sorry madam, but we are sitting in the StarManage agency in front of Mr. Ju Long. We have already signed the contract papers with his agency."
"What?" shouted Bi Yu throwing the pencil stand down from her table. "You- you have double crossed me. Yesterday you didn't even answer my message and you led me to believe that you will join my agency!" Bi Yu could feel that a golden chance had slipped from her hands. "I will take revenge and will make sure that you both don't get any work in the industry. I will call Lu Dao also and tell him about your way of working."
Zhou Ah Ming disconnected the call before she could spout any more nonsense. He looked at Ju Long who was guiding Feng Xinying to sign the contract at various places. Their legal advisor was also sitting with them. Ah Ming smiled. He knew that Feng Xinying was in good hands but at the same time he wondered what would Bi Yu do.
Later, in the evening at home, when Xie Yuansheng was watching the news, Feng Xinying also came and sat near him. There was a news that caught her eye: The owner of the famous Starline agency, Bi Yu is jailed. She was caught red handed while giving performance enhancement drug to the sports models associated with her agency.
Feng Xinying was drinking water. She coughed it out.
