Chapter 783: Chapter 792: Encounter (5)

Especially his domineering demeanor, so different from those soft and sweet-talking men she used to date, the ones who would only sweet-talk her to make her happy. He actually looked quite impressive.

To her surprise, Situ Xuan just gave her a sideway glance and said nothing.

"Hey, what do you mean by that? You’re late and you still think you have a reason?" Cheng Tingting had never tolerated such disrespect and immediately began to scold him.

Situ Xuan still ignored her, just looking at her as she was being so wilful and unrefined. Even if her appearance was crafted with heaps of makeup to create a delicate face, how could she ever surpass Jian Anning by even a fraction?

Not to mention her attitude now—she wasn’t even married into the Situ family yet, and she was already meddling in his work! What right did she have to criticize him for being late? Was she an employee of the company?

Moreover, what he hated the most was women meddling in men’s work affairs! It was truly more trouble than help!

But Situ Xuan didn’t get angry with her; instead, he stood with his hands clasped behind him, and with a single glance, swept his gaze across the security guards outside the door. His voice carried an air of authority!

"Do not let any irrelevant people in haphazardly!"

The matters to be discussed later involved company secrets. If Cheng Tingting were to leak them, wouldn’t it spell doom for him?

"What did you say? Who did you call ’irrelevant people’?" Cheng Tingting’s face turned pale with shock!

What was wrong with her attending his meeting? Weren’t they engaged already? It was humiliating enough for her to pick up the man her sister had rejected. He didn’t even show up for the engagement, and afterwards, he left her alone in Canada. She had come all the way from Toronto, and he didn’t greet her or show any concern, yet he still dared to yell at her?

Cheng Tingting was about to explode with anger! All her life, who dared to fault her? What was Situ Xuan but another nobody!

Seeing that she wasn’t leaving, Situ Xuan glanced at the security guards and spoke, "What are you waiting for!"

That look was ice cold.

The security guards were startled and immediately stepped up to stop Cheng Tingting: "Miss Cheng, the company is about to start a meeting, could you please..."

In the end, they didn’t dare to drag Cheng Tingting out forcibly—after all, she was the fiancée of their CEO. If it turned out to be just a lovers’ quarrel and they recklessly intervened, they would be the ones to suffer the consequences!

"Situ Xuan!" Cheng Tingting was close to dying of rage as she let out an angry shout. Situ Xuan completely ignored her, slowly making his way to the chairman’s seat and sitting down.

"Where were we? Continue," he said softly, waving his hand gently. His voice wasn’t loud, yet it acted like a steadying pin amidst the chaos, silencing everyone. Soon, the conference room was once again filled with discussion.

---------------------------------

Both Cheng Tingting and Ya Jiayi were politely "escorted" out by the guards.

Presently, Ya Jiayi’s primary task was to follow Cheng Tingting and keep an eye on her.

The moment they were kicked out, Cheng Tingting, fuming, stretched out her hand with its brightly polished nails and jabbed viciously at the closed doors of the conference room: "I’m so mad, I’m so mad! Situ Xuan, he actually dared to throw me out!"

Ya Jiayi stood to one side, head down, not saying a word. To be honest, although she didn’t like Jian Anning, she disliked Cheng Tingting even more!
