Chapter 1366: Disciplinary class.
Back from the car, both Qi Shuai and Feng Shufen had seen Bai Yuchen driving in the venue. At that moment Qi Shuai was ready to ask Gao Fan to go and announce about their arrival but Feng Shufen rejected it straight away.“We have the invitation, right?” Feng Shufen asked and Gao Fan nodded.
“Yes, President Feng. CEO Bai had personally sent it to the company earlier. He even tried to make contact with you but since you were in the meeting, I have to refuse him.”
Feng Shufen plainly nodded. “Since we have the invitation, there is no need to announce our arrival. Let’s go in five minutes from now.” He said and then went silent.
Qi Shuai couldn’t understand his decision at that time and opened his mouth to speak something but then without saying anything, he closed it back, feeling that there was nothing he could say.
Qi Shuai waited and tried to understand but couldn’t until they finally entered the venue.
When Feng Shufen said that he would make an unannounced entry to the venue, he might not have understood. But when he saw Bai Yunchen ‘s face growing sullen did he realize what were the plans of his friend.
He wanted nothing to make Bai Yuchen feel lost at the very start. And seeing the face of Bai Yuchen at the moment, Qi Shuai could get confident to say that Shufen’s plan has hit the bullseye perfectly.
The man thought to be the starlight of the evening to impress everyone, but couldn’t even stay in the focus for even five minutes. How pitiful was that!
Qi Shuai’s lips curled up in a smirk when he saw the face of Bai Yuchen standing at a distance. He knew that he could not see them yet and was quizzical about their identities but that confusion didn’t stay for long since he saw Bai Yuchen’s secretary soon reaching out to him to inform about them.
“President Feng, you were the last person we were expecting to see here. Please tell us about your thoughts.”
“President Feng, does your arrival here can be said to be because of the recent potential LS Cosmetics has shown?”
“President Feng, do you know CEO Bai? Do you want to share your thoughts about his working manner and leadership?”
One after the other questions were shot out, but to all their queries, Feng Shufen remained all casual and nonchalant. An expression of disinterest getting displayed on his face, letting everyone know their limits on their own. Only when their energy was exhausted did he say, “We received an invitation.”
His words were curt and short but were enough to answer all their curiosity in one go.
When Qi Shuai heard it, he almost choked on his breath. Coughing out to ease himself, he patted his chest before looking at the dumbfounded media reporters to say, “*ahem, ahem* Please let me explain. Our President Feng got some time today. Since we had nothing in the schedule today, we came here to show our support to the emerging faces in the industry. After all, if not a giant like us, who else would do the honor?”
He said and then gave out an awkward laugh. Although his words seemed logical, it still felt a bit odd to the reporters. If it had been any other, they would have not hesitated to ask the person to clarify, but since it was Feng Shufen and Qi Shuai, none held the guts.
Giving them a polite smile, they just held an awkward silence. While they were finding it hard to move their feet, Bai Yuchen’s voice from behind gave everyone a relief.
“Good evening, President Feng. It’s really an honor for me to see you accepting my invitation.”
The crowd of reporters moved, giving a way to Bai Yuchen to walk closer.
Bai Yuchen walked with a smile that was completely opposite to the expression he had earlier on his face. When Qi Shuai saw him like that, he was quite impressed. But he didn’t speak to expose him, rather simply stayed there to enjoy the show. Since Shufen was here in front of so many eyes, things won’t be concluded simply.
Feng Shufen’s cold eyes slowly scrutinized the man walking up to him before looking at Gao Fan. The secretary at once understood his gesture. Taking the action just in time, he stopped Bai Yuchen drawing any close to his boss. Walking up to him first, he spoke, “CEO Bai, President Feng, might be here but he is not a person to quite adapt to the people around. So, I request you to please not disturb him at the moment. Your people have already asked him too many questions.”
Although Gao Fan was a secretary, his words held no restraint while addressing the CEO of LS Cosmetics. His aura held the charge that all easily intimidated Bai Yuchen and others.
When Bai Yuchen heard him, he felt insulted. But then again, there was nothing he could do. Feng Shufen and his team were the people not everyone could talk back to.
So, in the end, curling his lips in a polite smile, Bai Yuchen spoke looking at Feng Shufen, “I am sorry for the inconvenience, President Feng. I didn’t mean to bother you. For me, your presence here itself is enough. Please enjoy the space as your own. I will let others know the do-s and don’t-s regarding you.” He said and then quickly gave a gaze to the media.
The media understood the cue and was ready to walk away; but right at that moment, a voice interrupted, putting everyone back in their tracks.
“Do-s and don’t’-s about him? CEO Bai, I thought this was a party thrown to celebrate. I never knew that there would be a disciplinary class conducted here. Is this a special preparation made just to make President Feng comfortable?”
Li Xue walked in and the moment she did, her presence and words stirred everyone around, causing a buzz in the air.
