Feng Xinying wiped a piece of condiment that was on Xie Yuansheng's lips and asked, "What is it?"

"Starline has gone completely bankrupt. Ever since the drug scandal broke out, no one is ready to give them projects and at the same time people have withdrawn their projects. Many leading stars have already left the agency," replied Xie Yuansheng.

Feng Xinyin started eating her favorite dish these days. She was listening to him intently. "That is sad…"

"Hmm… What I am thinking is that you have the right experience in this field. You have been a professional model and a movie star. Would you like to take over as the boss of Starline?" asked Xie Yuansheng as he stopped eating and waited for her answer.

Feng Xinying stopped eating too. She looked at Xie Yuansheng as though she was shocked to see a ghost. "Xie Yuansheng, no! That would be just terrible. Not only that company is surrounded in controversies, people have left it. It doesn't have business. If it has gone bankrupt, do you think we would be able to get out of it?"

Xie Yuansheng took another piece in his mouth and replied, "Well, that is true. If you will take its reigns, you will have to deal with its ghosts. There are just too many things that you would have to look into. But with the kind of experience you have, this is one of the best things you should concentrate on. Starting a company from scratch would be more difficult as compared to taking over a company like Starline. I am not saying that you will have to get it out of the doldrums within a year's time, but you can slowly pick up on it."

"But Shengu, what if I can't manage it?" she asked suddenly feeling nervous.

"Then also no worries Xinying because we can always shut it down the moment you want to," he replied taking another prawn that she had peeled.

"Baby, I am not confident about it…"

"You should really think about it Xinying. In case you feel you can't, it is okay. I won't bother you. After all I want my wife to stay positive," he said with a smile on his face while looking at her tummy.

"Hmm… Let me discuss this with Kiera. Let me ask her views…"

"Sure!"

"I will go to visit her from here," she declared.

"Okay. Stay there. I will join in the evening and pick you from there," said Xie Yuansheng as he kept the plate to refill it with more food.

Feng Xinying left the office and on her way out she saw Lim Chuen walking in. He looked older and tired. She narrowed her eyes at him and without acknowledging his presence, walked past him. What was he doing here anyway?

Once she sat in the car, she called Xie Yuansheng and informed him about Lim Chuen.

"Don't worry baby, I know that he is coming to meet me," said Xie Yuansheng with a smile at his wife.

Lim Chuen reached Xie Yuansheng's office and this time his secretary didn't stop him. He was looking very nervous and tired. When he reached there, Xie Yuansheng looked at him. He gestured him to sit on the sofa while he looked at the computer screen. His man had sent him the video details of the old man who had been meeting Ho Rad. He watched the video in silence. Once the video was over, he walked to the sofa and sat opposite Lim Chuen. "How are you doing?"

"You don't have the right to ask that question Xie Yuansheng! You have ruined me to a great extent and now what is this I am hearing? You are converting the company back to private limited. This is insane," he shouted.

"Well, I was just asking for formality sake," replied Xie Yuansheng as he tried to pick his teeth. "The company is that of Feng Xinying. It was her idea and I will stand by it. For how long do you think we are going to deal with attempts of hostile takeovers? Better we spend that energy in doing business." Xie Yuansheng sat back as he rested his back on the sofa back. He was pointing is obviously at Lim Chuen. When Feng Zhantian was alive, Xie Yuansheng had helped him from a hostile takeover from Lim Chuen. He scoffed at him. "Some habits die hard and some habits die with the person."

"Xie Yuansheng! What do you mean by that?" yelled Lim Chuen.

"You are intelligent enough to know what I mean."Xie Yuansheng looked at Lim Chuen with pity. He was looking so let down and old despite his age that Xie Yuansheng felt like laughing at him. Suddenly Xie Yuansheng had an idea. He called his IT guy and asked him to remove all the wrinkles from the face of the old man's face using a software. He messaged him and asked how much time it would take. He messaged him back that it would take a maximum of two hours.

"Is there anything else you have come to talk about? Don't tell me you wasted your time and mine on talking about the past."

"I want compensation. You cheated me by leading me into buying that land. Either you buy that land from me and return the money or I will sue you in court," threatened Lim Chuen.

"In that case, I choose option two. Please go ahead and sue me," Xie Yuansheng scoffed again. "I am not interested in that land." He got up from the sofa and started to leave. "Please excuse me. I have to attend a meeting." He walked out of the office, leaving an angry Lim Chuen alone.

"Xie Yuansheng, stop!" shouted Lim Chuen but his words fell on deaf ears. Now Lim Chuen couldn't do anything so even he left the office.

The IT guy sent the smoothened face of the old man to Xie Yuansheng in less than two hours. Xie Yuansheng was shocked, stunned and shaken to the core when he saw the photo on his screen. He dropped the phone on the floor.

"Boss, are you okay?" asked Cai Xin and rushed towards him.
