Chapter 156 - Angry Fans
**********
CHAPTER 156
By the very next day things still did not quiet down as Li Jing had hoped. Although the news was taken off social media, it only irked Ye Cheng's fans who wanted to know what was going on and if she was really the one he wanted.
She had to get into the company through a disguise or else she did not know what those crazy fans of his would do to her.
Some hated her because they wished they were in her place while some hatewd her because she was going to steal their Ye Cheng. Most oif them would have actually preferred for him to remain single rather than have their hearts broken.
There were those fans who rooted for her relationship with him, seeing them as ythe perfect pair and the best the business world would ever see.
Since she got in, things had been improving for Dream Star Corporation as Ye Cheng had for saw. He was more than glad he had her with him but then again he knew he had to hopld her carefully lets she slipped away.
As usual, Ye Cheng did not pay concern to their whims and rather ignored them. He wasn't doing any of these because of them but to anger someone and from the looks of things, the talks on the various social media pages was more than enough to irk a certain person.
The news had definitely gotten to that certain person and some other things leaked out as well that Bai Qing Mei was the original girlfriend of Ye Cheng and not Li Jing.
It was obvious who had leaked that info out but Ye Cheng did not bother as most of the fans did not want to believe it seeing as there was no picture proof.
~Bai Residence~
Bai Qing Mei was seen sitting in the living room with a glass of champagne bottle in her hand while her gaze and attention was fixed on the television screen in front of her.
"Hmm, I see that the news we leaked is doing great." Her melodious voice broke out as she twirled the wine glass, causing its content to twirl as well and do a nice mix.
"Sure." Hao Huizhong who had his gaze set on her did not bother looking at the TV screen but watched her every expression from the side.
"Do you still have that picture when we kissed?" She turned her head to the side to look at him, letting a small smile graze her lips.
"Sure, I never deleted it," Hao Huizhong replied her with a huge grin on his face.
"Great."
"You want me to release it now to the press?"
"No."
"Why? It would not cause enough scandal now as it should. Let there be rest for now. Yew Cheng think he can irk me and go scot free, showing that girl at important events? Then he thought wrong."
"What are you plotting, Qing Mei?"
"I would let you in on my sewcret. Just you wait. Fpor now, we need to win the forth coming January Bidding Proposal."
"Sure thing. It is just 20 days left to January first. We can device more plans to get it and have one over Ye Cheng."
"Cool. I would leave the ;logistics of that to you and grandfather. While I would focus on bring him down from his love life. Hahhaa…" she laughed out loud, letting her head fall back as she enjoyed her thoughts. "Come and join me, drink, Huizhong." She beckoned on him, filling the spare glass on the table with a similar champagne. "Ye Cheng has not seen the end of us yet. Just he wait and I would have what I want."

Meanwhile, Li Jing had not dressed like any other worker but like a construction personnel with a sunshade on and her head hung low to pass through the crowds.
When she got inside, she went to the back of the building to quickly pull off the jumpsuit she was wearing. By the time she was done, she carefully his it behind some crates and walked out looking all too pretty and forgot to wear her sunshade.
Unfortunately for her, a few of the fans had left the bunch by the gate just to see if they could sneak their way in when they spotted her and recognized her instantly.
"Hey, girls wait." One of the ladies spoke up.
"What?" Two other ladies said in unison as they turned to face the first.
"Look," she pointed to Li Jing who was oblivious to what was going on behind her and fiddling in her bag for something. "Isn't that Li Jing?"
"What? Where?" The third lady asked looking around.
"There, coming from the back and looking into her bag." The first lady replied.
"Bingo, Li Jing. You think you can hide and steal Ye Cheng from her," a fifth lady replied with a devilish grin on her face.
"What did you say?" The others peeled their gaze from Li Jing and fixed them on the fifth lady.
"It is nothing. What are we waiting for? She is about putting on her shades and would blend in. What better time to scream her name and make everyone go wide."
"Yes!" They chorused at her words, each looking more fierce than before and ready for action.
"Come on then."
They rushed forward and began shouting. "Li Jing! Li Jing! Everyone see Li Jing!"
Instantly the crowd turned and looked in the direction of those shouting and followed their hands watching where they pointed at.
"Yay!! Li Jing, leave our Ye Cheng!"
Li Jing who was just about putting on the shades completely suddenly heard the yell behind her and she froze in place like a statue. She did not believe she would be caught red handed like that and that her left her brain to malfunction.
She failed to place her glasses on as the next thing a chant started at the gates leaving the security speechless as well.
Just now, everything was going on smoothly but now things just suddenly turned heated up. Before they knew what was happening, some of the crazy fans brought out fruits and the likes from their bags and raised their hands up in a threatening way, ready to start a riot and vandalize Li Jing.
It was all too surprising for Li Jing who was shocked beyond words at how things had escalated like that.
While all these were going on, Ye Cheng was attending to some company matters in his office when he heard the shout high up in the building.
He quickly stopped what he was typing and rolled on his chair to the long glass wall for a window, to peer down and check what made them go gaga.
He was shocked when he saw that the people were chanting a certain name that brought him joy in an angry way. On further viewing, he saw a lady standing not too far from where the angry crowd was and knew without a second doubt that she was the one.
"What the hell is she doing standing there?" Ye Cheng was more surprised than anyone but he immediately found himself back and rolled his chair back to his table to pick upo the telephone.
"Yes, call them in, clear the angry people from my gates now. If they so much as hurt her, I would sue them all. Also, get her away from there and inside the building ASAP."
"Got it sir," the head security replied him and the phone went dead.
Ye Cheng got up from his seat and made his way to the window again and this time he saw them bring out fruits and objects, ready to stone her with it.
"Why is she… Li Jing!" Ye Cheng called out her name, forgetting that it was sound proof in his office, so his voice couldn't be heard outside. "Damn it! What are they doing? They should get her away from there. Urghh!"
In frustration and fear, Ye Cheng moved from the window and rushed out of his office, running for the elevators and heading downstairs.
Up till that moment, Li Jing froze, she did not know why she could not move but she so much wanted to.
She could see what was about to happen but her feet refused to budge and work with her mind.
"Attack!" They tilted their hands back, ready for a sling shot at their unmoving target.
Just then, she felt someone hold her hand and pull on her wrist, dragging her away and running to the front and into the building.
SWOOSH!
SPLASH!
THUD!
"COME BACK! COME BACK! Li Jing!"
As soon as they got inside, Li Jing heart beat began to race widely as the whole event started replaying in her mind again. Her face held all the fear she felt and she managed to look at her side at the person who saved her.
"You okay?" A male handsome worker asked, trying to catch his breath.
"I…"
"Li Jing!"
