My beautiful CEO wife
Chapter 457: Arousing Leng Ruobing’s Suspicion

Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Arousing Leng Ruobing’s Suspicion

Xiao Zheng watched as Mr. Liu walked away and did not speak for a long time. Under the current circumstances, it clearly wasn’t suitable to engage in a life or death duel. His recent exchange with Mr. Liu had also been a test to gauge Mr. Liu’s current strength. It seemed now that Mr. Liu was incredibly powerful!

"Xiao Zheng, come with me."

At that moment, Leng Ruobing’s voice rang out.

Xiao Zheng suddenly developed a headache.

How was he supposed to explain the situation to the beautiful CEO?

Looking around at the chaotic scene and the frightened expressions of the staff watching him, Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

"No one is allowed to speak of this matter, or else prepare to be fired by the company!" Leng Ruobing said coldly to the people around her as she walked toward her office.

The people trembled instantly, knowing full well that jobs at Qianqiu Group were incredibly hard to come by, and getting fired over something like this would not be funny at all.

Immediately, everyone said in unison, "President, rest assured, we definitely won’t talk about it."

Xiao Zheng nodded in satisfaction; it seemed the beautiful CEO was protecting him.

Entering the office, Leng Ruobing sat down and stared coldly at Xiao Zheng, "Tell me, what exactly happened just now? Why did you start fighting with that Mr. Liu?"

Xiao Zheng pondered for a moment.

It was indeed difficult to explain this situation. Should he tell Leng Ruobing that Mr. Liu was his former rival and enemy? But coming up with a suitable reason was also challenging.

Besides, Xiao Zheng did not want to deceive Leng Ruobing about everything.

"The matter between him and me, I cannot tell you right now." In the end, Xiao Zheng chose to remain silent.

Leng Ruobing couldn’t help but become angry, "You caused such a big scene in my company, and you still can’t tell me?"

Xiao Zheng smiled bitterly, knowing that Leng Ruobing would react this way, so he simply clammed up, appearing unfazed like a pig not afraid of boiling water.

Leng Ruobing was so frustrated she clenched her teeth, but there was nothing she could do.

She had long known of Xiao Zheng’s mysterious identity. With today’s appearance of Mr. Liu, her suspicions only grew stronger, knowing that no matter how much she pressed, Xiao Zheng wouldn’t reveal anything. She felt slightly disappointed but quickly regained her composure and logic.

"I won’t pursue what has happened between you and him. However, I need to confirm if Mr. Liu came here because of you?"

Leng Ruobing looked directly at Xiao Zheng.

"Of course, it’s because of me."

Xiao Zheng nodded.

"If that’s the case, then this project of the company might be in danger," Leng Ruobing couldn’t help but frown.

"I feel the same way," Xiao Zheng nodded. "I know this Mr. Liu. He’s cunning and deceitful; there must definitely be some scheme behind this project."

"Alright," Leng Ruobing rubbed her eyebrows, looking a bit weary. "I’ll handle this matter properly and won’t allow Mr. Liu to do anything outrageous."

Xiao Zheng felt a bit guilty, knowing that this situation was his fault for involving Leng Ruobing. Then he seriously looked at Leng Ruobing and said solemnly, "Don’t worry. Although I can’t tell you exactly what happened between me and Mr. Liu, I can assure you that neither you nor Qianqiu Group will suffer the slightest harm."

A bit of authoritarianism emanated from Xiao Zheng.

The promise of the Evil God was never broken.

Leng Ruobing was taken aback for a moment. This serious side of Xiao Zheng was rare, and when he was serious, he had an especially attractive and secure aura.

Leng Ruobing’s face reddened, and then she became angry again, "This whole situation is your fault, you must handle it properly!"

Xiao Zheng rubbed his nose.

This wife, still as ever, the Ice Queen.

"Alright, there’s nothing left here for me, so I’ll be going now," Xiao Zheng smiled and bid farewell to Leng Ruobing.

"Hmm."

Leng Ruobing nodded.

Upon returning to the sales department, Xiao Zheng noticed that nobody was discussing the disturbance that had just occurred upstairs. It seemed that Leng Ruobing’s orders were really effective; the news had been completely blocked.

For Xiao Zheng, this was actually a good thing, as it could reduce a lot of trouble.

Then, he began his work.

The so-called work was essentially just for show, as Xiao Zheng was mainly researching Golden Bone here.

Just before the end of the workday, Mo Anna rushed over anxiously and asked, "How is it going? What’s the situation?"

"I just asked President Leng to check, and sure enough, some issues were discovered with Mr. Liu. However, this is, after all, a massive project involving tens of billions of funds; it’s very complex and not something that can be resolved in a short time.

President Leng has already started taking precautions against Mr. Liu, and in the upcoming time, this matter should come to a conclusion."

Xiao Zheng was used to calling Leng Ruobing his wife so naturally that he almost blurted it out in front of Mo Anna, but fortunately, his reaction was fast enough, and he corrected himself in time.

"If that’s the case, then that’s wonderful."

Mo Anna sighed in relief.

"But... it’s quite strange. Why would she check just because you asked? What exactly is your relationship with her?"

With a sudden change in her tone, Mo Anna stared at Xiao Zheng with a teasing smile, her expression one of triumph like a cat that had caught a mouse.

Xiao Zheng then realized that the actions Mo Anna had taken earlier were meant to test him! The various rumors swirling around the office had made Mo Anna suspicious of the relationship between him and Leng Ruobing.

"You, woman."

Xiao Zheng shook his head and chuckled.

Indeed, no woman was easy to handle.

"Go on, then."

Mo Anna sat on Xiao Zheng’s desk, arms crossed, and smiled playfully.

Ding-dong...

Suddenly, at that moment, a bell rang. This was the special end-of-work bell at Qianqiu Group.

After Leng Ruobing had become the president, she had pushed for reforms and no longer encouraged overtime culture. The moment it was closing time, employees could leave.

"Hehe, it’s time to leave, I’m out of here," Xiao Zheng suddenly jumped up, dashing towards the exit.

Mo Anna, just an ordinary woman, how could she keep up with Xiao Zheng’s pace? She just felt a gust of wind beside her, then Xiao Zheng had disappeared from sight.

Annoyed, Mo Anna stamped her foot and bit her bright, enticing red lip.

After leaving the company, Xiao Zheng did not return to his villa but went to a secret base.

This Mr. Liu, having suddenly appeared in Zhonghai City and easily producing ten billion in funds, must have left behind many clues; Xiao Zheng prepared to investigate further.
