Chapter 194: An Emergency Meeting
In the middle of the night, Wen Shuyue in her pajamas was walking in a misty forest. Nothing could be seen in the darkness. She was at a loss and stopped blindly.
The man’s terrifying voice came from nowhere, “You will die! You will die here!” The cold and vicious voice was approaching her from the distance, and Wen Shuyue squatted in terror. She covered her ears in terror, trying to get rid of the terrible voice.
Gradually, the coldness subsided, and the man’s voice was gone. Wen Shuyue opened her eyes and saw that the fog had cleared off. She got up, but she felt coldness on her neck. She turned around and saw the man putting a knife on her neck with a scary smile. He started to…
Wen Shuyue suddenly screamed and sat up in bed. She woke up from the nightmare and broke out in cold sweat.
He Siming was a light sleeper. Wen Shuyue’s scream woke him up. He turned on the table lamp next to him. The room was instantly lit up.
He Siming saw Wen Shuyue sitting on the bed and wrapped his arms around her. Sensing that she was trembling, he moved her closer to him and looked at her frightened face.
“Did you have a nightmare?” asked He Siming gently as he wiped off the sweat on Wen Shuyue’s forehead and nose.
Wen Shuyue’s mouth was as dry as a bone. She hadn’t recovered from the terror of the nightmare and couldn’t utter anything. She nodded and looked at He Siming’s bright eyes, holding him tightly and resting her chin on his shoulder. Tears coursed down her cheeks quietly.
He Siming felt her fear, and his eyes were filled with pity. He continued to comfort her with a soft voice, “It’s over, it’s over.”
He Siming had been comforting Wen Shuyue for an hour and finally put her to sleep. He hugged her and watched her sleep quietly. He was worried about her. If that man was not caught, she would not be relieved or overcome her fear. He Siming knew that he had to catch the man as soon as possible.
The next day, when Wen Shuyue woke up, He Siming was no longer on the bed. The golden sunlight shone on the bed. Wen Shuyue got up and rubbed her sore neck. Although she didn’t sleep well in the second part of the night, she didn’t dream of the ferocious face again. Wen Shuyue didn’t want to worry Wen Baobao and He Siming like she did yesterday, so she collected herself and prepared to smile, getting up to wash up.
By the time Wen Shuyue went out of the room, Wen Baobao and He Siming were sitting at the dining table and having breakfast.
“Mommy, why do you get up so late? Even the sun has come out to work,” said Wen Baobao jokingly when he saw Wen Shuyue go downstairs in a good spirit.
“I’m sorry, Baobao. I got up late,” said Wen Shuyue apologetically as she pulled the chair to sit down.
“It’s okay. You can get up whenever you like,” consoled He Siming, who was protective.
“I’m not a female pig,” Wen Shuyue joked and laughed happily with Wen Baobao.
He Siming shook his head helplessly. Seeing that Wen Shuyue was so happy, he couldn’t help smiling. He felt much better now.
“By the way, my holiday is almost over. I’m going back to work today,” Wen Shuyue said to He Siming as she cut a piece of sausage.
“No,” He Siming denied without even thinking about it. He stopped smiling and looked serious.
Wen Shuyue saw him return to his usual self and felt helpless. She understood that he meant well to her, so she didn’t say anything else and lowered her head to eat.
Wen Baobao was smart and sensed that they were not happy, so he told them funny things. Wen Shuyue laughed and He Siming stopped frowning.
After breakfast, He Siming drove Wen Baobao to kindergarten and then to the company. Wen Shuyue kissed Wen Baobao at the door and said goodbye to them.
“Take a rest at home. Don’t go to work. Do you hear me?” said He Siming sternly. There was concern in his voice.
“Okay, Mr. He,” Wen Shuyue knew that he cared about her and nodded with a smile.
After He Siming got her reply, he left with Wen Baobao.
Shortly after they left, Wen Shuyue received a call from Vice President Chen, who said that there was an emergency meeting at the company and that she must attend. Wen Shuyue quickly put on her suit and high heels, rushing to the company.
As soon as she arrived at the company, Xiaolu went up to her and said nervously, “Miss Wen, the directors have come for the meeting. They look unfriendly. I guess they are going to pick on you. Be careful.”
Wen Shuyue smiled and said confidently, “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
Wen Shuyue walked towards the meeting room calmly and deliberately like a queen. Xiaolu felt relieved.
Wen Shuyue pushed opened the door and saw that the atmosphere in the conference room was tense. Mr. Gu was sitting at the host seat, and several directors sat there with serious expressions.
“Shuyue, you’re here,” Mr. Gu first saw Wen Shuyue and he greeted her friendly.
“Hello, Mr. Gu. Hello, everyone.” Wen Shuyue greeted everyone in the room politely and sat at the last empty seat.
“Since Miss Wen has come, go ahead with your problems. Let’s hear her out,” MR. Gu said seriously as he glanced at everyone.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“She is a woman who just came back from abroad. She makes rash decisions before she secures her footing. I don’t think she can achieve anything.” A director sitting beside Mr. Gu started to lecture Wen Shuyue sternly.
His sharp accusation amused Wen Shuyue, who said politely, “Mr. Zhao, please tell me which decision I made upset you? I don’t know what to say if you don’t point that out.”
“You!” Director Zhao was dissatisfied with Wen Shuyue’s attitude, but he couldn’t argue with her at such an old age. He took a deep breath and said, “Yifeng Group is an old customer, but you lost it because you want to improve the performance and raised the standard blindly. Can you afford the loss?”
The other directors echoed, thinking it was a loss to lose such a big customer.
Wen Shuyue was speechless. It turned out to be about this matter. She calmly explained, “The development of Yifeng Group has been quite good in the past few years, and the corporation with them did bring us some profits. However, MK intends to create a top fashion brand in the country, and the development and product concept of Yifeng Group is not in line with ours. I think they understood this and didn’t ask for cooperation with us on the new products.”
The directors hesitated and felt that Wen Shuyue was right. As for the long-term development of MK, Yifeng Group was not the best choice. Wen Shuyue’s impeccable words embarrassed Director Zhao, who could not retort. He didn’t say anything else, wearing an angry look.
“Mr. Gu, since everyone has no objections, I’ll go back to work first.” Wen Shuyue took in everyone’s expression and left Mr. Gu’s consent. She went back to her office.
