Redeeming The Golden Ticket To Life

Chapter 60: Before the Showdown

*****

As much as it saddens me, I still got relegated to the guest room last night.

Today I have to go to the office. 

'Sigh'

I freshen up and walk down to the living room. Zhang Wei already set our breakfast table. There is toast and egg benedict on the table with a tub of soft boutique butter by its side. While I smell freshly brewed coffee. 

'My wife, she looks most docile when she eats.'

She is wearing a blue maxi dress with a white knitted cardigan. Hairs left open. Simple yet beautiful.

"Good morning, My Queen."

"Good morning, Qiang" She replied.

"Have your breakfast I will get you a freshly brewed coffee," Zhang Wei said.

"Thank you"

"How many sugar cubes?" he asked.

"Two cubes" I replied.

Zhang Wei left to fetch me a cup of coffee.

"So, what's your agenda for the day in the office?" Bai Chang asked me while sipping on her coffee. 

"Nothing too major other than the process related to bidding events."

"Keep an eye and keep the other mobile phone that I gave you, with you." 

"Anything I need to keep my eye out for?" I asked her.

"I'll keep an eye out for you, so no trouble there. But do make sure you do not sign any suspicious documents or get in trouble. I will keep you posted, so at all times keep the phone on you. It is undetectable under any kind of metal or electronic detector."

"Ai... Ai... my Queen."

(I realised that she is concerned about my safety as well as the bidding event.)

"Do not worry, I will keep my guard up at all times."

"You better do, rest I will handle from here."

I quickly finished my breakfast. Sipped my coffee and then, I am ready to leave for the office.

As I am about to leave I turned towards Bai Chang and kissed her on her cheeks.

In return, she surprised me by quickly nibbling my lips. Giving me a naughty eye wink she hurriedly fled from the room.

I stand shocked as I rub my lips.

I then really leave for the office, light on my feet.

-In Hu Corporation Headquarter Office Building- 

As I reached the office, I was ambushed by Ming Li.

"Bosss." he cried out.

(I am lost at his over-dramatic portrayal of emotions towards me.)

"What?" I replied curtly. (It's best to cut his antiques as early as possible.)

"Boss, there is so much going on here."

"Let's talk in my office," I replied.

We headed to my office swiftly. After settling down in the office, I nod my head for Ming Li to continue.

"Boss, we received an official invitation to the bidding event. It takes place a week later. As we predicted. And they have a semi-formal event tomorrow. It's a plus one event."

I raised my eyebrows, indicating to continue.

"Boss, from an inside source I got to know that people are planning trouble for the event tomorrow, specifically directed towards us."

"Go with the flow, rest I'll handle."

"Okay, the invites and details to the events are on your table"

I look into it.

My phone vibrated in my pocket, the one from my wife.

"Okay, I will look into it."

Ming Li understood, he left my office right on cue.
