Chapter 776 - Empress is on polite-hunt (VII) (2/2)

This was the least he can do for his first love.

The day Xinyi and Rouxi visited Xie Ming at the hospital, was the same day when he went over to the hospital to meet her and revealed to her about their childhood connection. Coincidentally, he was sitting behind the table of Xinyi and Rouxi in the hospital cafeteria.

He recorded their conversation and was planning to hand it to Xie Ming later but she already looked pale and sickly so he decided to give it to her later. And since then, he couldn't get the chance to reveal the thing he was holding onto.

However, when it comes to this, he thought of giving it to her as his farewell give.

Liwei pursed his lips and said in a low voice, ” So it was Jian Yan? Well...at least he came useful for once.” He commented while trying to not sound jealous. He was glad that he helped Xie Ming but he was feeling envious that he couldn't do anything to help her in this case.

Xie Ming let out a low chuckle seeing him pretending to be cool but to her, he looked affected at the mention of Jian Yan.

” He has always helped me. So it was no surprise this time either,” she commented to make his expressions turn even more grave.

” Oh, yeah?” He stared at her coldly upon hearing her response.

” Then let me see who will help you now?” He looked at her meaningfully and stood up from his place while giving her a 'who-will-save-you' kind of look.

” Liwei, don't you dare come close. I will kill you if you do that,” she shouted while throwing cushions at him and ran upstairs while he chased her up to their bedroom.

Yu Mei who just came from the kitchen upon hearing their squeals glanced at the head butler which caused their ears to turn red in embarrassment. ” Head Butler, should I prepare the dining table for lunch or not?” she asked in confusion, wondering if the food will get cold by the time they come back.

The butler cleared his throat before speaking, ” Do that later. Let's..let's leave for now.” he said ushering her to not disturb the couple who were busy in their happy world while someone was facing the biggest tragedy of their life.

Xinyi was pacing back and forth in the office while Xie Rong was talking to the PR department to manage the situation, however, in only a few hours, along with Xinyi, Xie Corporation's reputation was going downhill as well.

Xinyi has deleted her past post and deactivated her account as well but Xie Ming's post was going viral, putting her on the top of the search. Since Xie Ming has posted those videos and audio a while ago, the investors who had shown interest to work with them earlier had released a statement immediately stating that they're severing their ties with Xie Corporations and they do not support such dangerous and immoral character.

It's not even a day but a few hours which has put the Xie Corporations in such a position.

” Dad, what do you think will happen to me now? I...Liwei won't hand over me to the police, right?” She turned to Xie Rong who just entered the office after talking to the head of the PR Department.

Xie Rong gritted his teeth seeing her thinking about only herself at this moment after putting his company and him through this turmoil. ” Xinyi, you're still thinking about yourself, aren't you? The company is on the verge of collapse, the condition has become worse than before and you're still worrying about yourself? If Xie Corporations goes under, no one will be able to help you.” he reminded her that her identity is all because of Xie Corporations, without it, she is nothing.

Her eyes turned teary as she shook her head and sobbed vulnerable, ” Dad, what will happen to me now? She didn't even die and is fine yet everyone is treating me as a murderer. They were supporting me a while ago, how can they change their sides in a split second.” she plopped on the floor while sobbing uncontrollably.

” Knock, Knock.”
