Chapter 191: Chapter 0191: Confessing Identity
Long Fei had heard about this matter before; have wanted to be the HR Director, but it seemed that it was Lin Yingying who vetoed him with a single vote.
He asked, "Don’t you have the power to veto with a single vote?"
Lin Yingying shook her head, "I only have the right to veto three times, and vetoing again is meaningless. Unless I have more shares than them, the other shareholders won’t listen to me."
Long Fei hesitated as he looked at her; Chu Feng was his brother, and he couldn’t bring himself to help her bully his own brother.
But if he didn’t help, seeing her like this made him feel somewhat distressed.
Even if he didn’t take the initiative to step in, Lin Yingying’s final choice would still be to fulfill the marriage contract in Longjiawan Village.
Only by doing so could she take control of the company.
He asked Lin Yingying, "So, do you still need to visit Longjiawan Village?"
Lin Yingying stared at him and countered, "Which is more important to you, love or career?"
Long Fei, feeling guilty, dodged a bit, and replied to her, "It depends on the person; some people love power, others love beauty, it’s hard to say."
Lin Yingying asked him, "Do you love power or beauty then?"
Long Fei laughed, "It should be beauty, I guess; I’m not much interested in fighting for power and profit."
"What a hopeless guy, I knew you’d choose that!"
Lin Yingying seemed to see right through him.
Long Fei asked her, "What about you? What would you choose?"
Lin Yingying stared at him and said, "I would like to choose beauty, but I’m afraid it’s just wishful thinking on my part!"
Even someone as slow as Long Fei could catch the implication of her words and immediately felt a mess inside.
It wasn’t just about beauty versus power for him, it was about choosing between two beauties.
Right, and now there was also the problem with his brother.
His brother was sharpening his knives, eager to fight with his beauty for power.
Long Fei thought it through carefully, wondering what exactly had happened between the Chu Family, the Long Family, and the Lin Family that made Lin Shirong give each family 10% of the shares?
Lin Yingying was waiting for just one sentence from him; as long as he dared to say it, she would give up the power she held.
But he held back and didn’t speak for a long time.
For someone as proud as she was, it was already not easy for her to say what she had said.
Seeing Long Fei like this, a flicker of disappointment crossed her face, and she stood up, "Alright, let’s get back to work!"
She pushed the door open and entered her office.
Long Fei hesitated, unsure whether he should reveal his identity to her.
He knew that his 10% of the shares would definitely be of help to her.
But if he revealed it, resolving the situation between him and Lin Yingying would become even more difficult.
He sat down with his legs crossed, and decided to meditate on his Qi Refinement.
At lunchtime, Bai Xiaochun came in to wake him up and handed him two boxed lunches.
She smiled and said, "Director Lin asked me to buy these for you, eat up!"
Long Fei looked at Lin Yingying’s office and asked her, "Where did Director Lin go?"
Bai Xiaochun shook her head, "I don’t know, she seemed very unhappy after the meeting today, and she hasn’t come back since going downstairs."
Long Fei became worried and immediately took out his phone to call her.
As a bodyguard, not knowing where his employer had gone was a terrible failure.
As soon as the call connected, Long Fei hurriedly asked, "Director Lin, where are you?"
Lin Yingying spoke somewhat curtly, "At home, what’s the matter?"
That voice, it was evident she had been drinking.
Long Fei asked her, "Who are you at home with?"
"Alone, who else would want to keep me company!"
Lin Yingying sounded aggrieved, and as she spoke, her voice was tinged with a hint of crying.
"Then wait for me, I’ll come over and keep you company!"
Long Fei knew she was having a hard time and was afraid something might happen to her.
He didn’t even eat his boxed lunch, letting Bai Xiaochun have it, and hurried out.
"Come on, I’ve already eaten it!"
Bai Xiaochun shouted from behind, eyeing the boxed lunch, reluctant to throw it away, opened it and sat down to eat again.
Inside the villa, Lin Yingying was drinking red wine, sitting on the sofa with a despondent expression.
No love, and her career was also a mess.
She was utterly drained, the once proud woman now beaten down to the point where she couldn’t lift her head.
Today’s meeting went as she expected.
Chu Feng publicly revealed his shares, joining her second uncle’s side, officially declaring war on her.
The fence-sitters, seeing that Chu Feng and her second uncle were gaining the upper hand, all defected to their side.
Lin Yingying, already isolated and weak, felt even more helpless.
She angrily cast another veto, now having only one veto right left.
Originally, she wanted to go to a bar to drink, but thinking about last time, she decided to go back home and drink alone.
After Long Fei arrived, he stood at the door and pressed the doorbell.
Lin Yingying, in a daze, went to open the door, looked at him, and burped, "What are you doing here?"
"Nonsense, being your bodyguard, what else could I do but protect you!"
Without further ado, Long Fei blocked her way and entered.
The room was filled with the smell of alcohol. Lin Yingying had drunk quite a bit: half a bottle of red wine, three bottles of beer, and not even a dish to snack on.
She shook off Long Fei’s hand, lifted her legs up onto the sofa, grabbed a cup, and filled it up for Long Fei, "You came just in time, join me for a few drinks!"
Long Fei looked at her and reprimanded, "Is it just a setback? Do you really need to be like this?"
"Just a bit?"
Lin Yingying poured a cup of wine into her mouth and complained angrily, "What do you know? It’s more than just a bit! Most of the shareholders are on their side now, and soon the company will be under their control. I don’t want to fulfill that marriage arrangement, I just want to live once following my own heart, why must they push me so hard!"
She hugged her knees, buried her face in them, and burst into loud tears.
Long Fei sat down beside her, took out a tissue and handed it to her, making up his mind, "Don’t be sad, I’ll help you."
Lin Yingying took the tissue, wiped her nose, and sniffled, "Your help is useless, you don’t have any shares. This is a trap my grandfather set for me, and I can’t get out of it."
Long Fei took out the jade pendant from his pocket, held it in front of her, and said, "I won’t lie to you anymore, I am your childhood betrothed. This is the token, it was pierced by a knife when I was saving you last time."
Lin Yingying stared at the jade pendant for a moment, hastily took her own from around her neck, and placed it next to his.
The two jade pendants were identical.
Both bore a drop of fresh blood in the center, except Long Fei’s pendant was pierced, and the red dot in the middle was gone.
Lin Yingying’s mind couldn’t quite wrap around this coincidence; such things had never happened to her before.
She was originally upset because she had to choose between Long Fei and the company; choosing the company would mean fulfilling the marriage pact, which would leave no room for anything with Long Fei.
Now it turned out that Long Fei was the very person she was engaged to in the marriage pact.
She didn’t know whether to be happy or angry. This guy had kept it from her for so long.
Lin Yingying suddenly remembered her sister mentioned that she had a secret to exchange with her.
That secret must be about Long Fei’s identity.
