Chapter 544 – Most Beautiful Woman Any Man Could Eye On.
After the last restaurant meet up with Li Xue, Zheng Wenting has not been anywhere in Wen Sying's reach. She has been trying his phone for almost a week but no response. She has also shopped on his card but no usual call was made to ask the reasons behind the shopping.
Guessing the reasons that could bring such change in the man's attitude, Wen Sying could not help but grow anxious. The mellow charm of her demeanour has already been changed into something hysterical. Her face, death pale with all those yelling and screaming, while her fingers fisted at her sides just to hold on to her anger for some time.
The whole room has already been a mess of all broken shards of vases, lamps and decorative pieces. Nothing was left unharmed except for the secretary who was also on the brink of losing her calm. It was already becoming hard for her to handle the growing tantrums of the woman.
"Sying, why not make the call to CEO Zheng's secretary. He might have some news about him". Da – Xia, the secretary of Wen Sying suggested politely. But it only made the woman's eyes snap at her, getting all fierce.
"If you have got such a brain then why did you use it only now? Were you waiting for my death to come?" Wen Sying yelled again.
Da – Xia was troubled. How could she suggest something before? The lady has clearly asked her to stay quiet and not utter any word. Was that her fault?
"I … I was saying …" The manager struggled with her words but before she could get to say anything in her defence, a metal bowl up from the table came flying at her. Wen Sying has become violent. This was not new to her but has considerably increased after the return of ex-model Li Xue in the city.
The poor secretary fumbled quickly over her feet to dodge the hit but no matter how quick she was on her action, the sharp edge of the bowl still brushed her arms, giving her a scratch. "Sying, what are you doing?" she winced, holding her injured arm as her eyes showed the pain.
But did she really expect any sympathy to come her way?
"It's not a major injury, just a plain scratch. With this, you won't be dying anytime soon. So, don't waste more time. Just make a call fast to his secretary and give it to me" The woman said, biting harshly at the poor soul.
The secretary had no other way. She was about to fumble inside her bag to get the phone when she suddenly remembered. Her eyes regretfully looked down at the floor where her mobile was scattered into the pieces.
Wen Sying also followed her gaze and gritted her teeth. "Truly, you are of no good use. Just uselessly leeching off on the company's money", she said before stomping her foot to reach her phone at the table.
Fiddling through her contacts, she soon dialled Zheng Wenting's secretary number. After just a few rings, the call got connected and at once the whole of the woman's attitude was changed. "Hello, Mr Sheng! It's me Wen Sying". She greeted all politely. With her tone of mannerism, she no longer looked like the edgy woman she has been moments before.
Da – Xia was not surprised to see her this way. Being her manager in all these years, she has seen her in the much better ways to know how skilful her acting skills were. It even left her in a dilemma to think if the woman could do better in the entertainment field than in the fashion industry.
"Yes, Ms Wen. How may I help you?" The secretary on the call answered very professionally, keeping himself all restricted to his boundaries. Like the former CEO of Zheng Industries, he has also never liked the lady. But just being a small employee working in the company, he doesn't stand in a position to question his employer's lifestyle.
"Ahh, it's nothing, Mr Sheng. I was just getting a little concerned about Wenting. I am not able to reach him. Do you have any idea, where I can find him?" Wen Sying asked, trying her best to keep hold of her irritation. Her fingers on the other hand fumbling among themselves, showing how anxious she was from inside.
"About CEO Zheng, I am sorry Ms Wen but I can't inform anything you, for I am being restricted to reveal anything"
"Mr Sheng, what do you mean? Don't you know who I am?" She asked, immediately getting on the brink of revealing her true nature.
The man on the other side of the call could only smile, knowing the reality better than anyone. "I know who you are Ms Wen, but I cannot do anything about it. I am still the secretary of Mr Zheng and has to follow his orders. That's my duty to keep".
"What do you mean?"
"Ms Wen, earlier CEO Zheng has called and asked me to not state his whereabouts to anyone. Especially not to you. He said he wants to stay alone and doesn't want any disturbances" The secretary replied all courteously but the taunt doesn't remain hidden in his tone.
Especially not to her? What does that mean? What was going on in the man's head?

At the same time in some club, a man was continuously downing one glass after the other, sitting at the counter of the back. His demeanour looked devastated as if he had lost something important about which he had no clue. But regret was still there, all existent in his stinging heart.
"CEO Zheng, you already had enough of the drinks. Please don't have more. I would ask the valet to call your driver over and help you back to your home" The bartender said, getting all concerned for the man who has continuously been drinking for hours now.
"No, no, that's not needed. You – You don't have to call my driver. Just call my girlfriend here. She would come and take me back. Do you know how loving and caring she has been?" Zheng Wenting said, stumbling over his words because of the alcohol content in his system. "She – she is the most beautiful woman any man can ever eye on. But she is all mine. Just – call her and she would come to take me back. Come on, call her!"
The bartender immediately nodded. He has already blessed enough thinking that the man was ready to leave. He quickly asked, "Sure, CEO Zheng, I will call your girlfriend. Just let me know who she is? Or any of her contact details you have with yourself".
"Haha … don't you know her. My girlfriend is Li Xue. Here take my phone and find her contact. She would come to pick me up. She is really the best".
