Chapter 313 - Proud (1/2)
On the first day of the conference, Xiu Mei was sitting in the room allotted to R-Tech along with her team members. With a deep frown on her face, she was checking the working of the mini version of two products that her company was about to demonstrate.
As Kong Wei had seen Bai Xin before she would be managing the work behind the curtains while Huo Feng would help her directly.
”Everyone out” Lu Xion walked inside the room with a hand tucked in his pocket. He occupied the seat across Xiu Mei who was preoccupied to check the working of her product to pay attention to Xion.
'Thash'
Xiu Mei's concentration broke when a gun was put in front of her by Lu Xion. She looked up with a frown, ”I don't need this”
”Little tomato, does it look like I offered you this gun?”His sarcastic comment deepened her frown as her lips twisted to the side. ”You already messed up with lots of things, don't poke me anymore. This is a mini gun and you have to have to keep it with you” She opened her mouth to say something but was stopped by Lu Xion, ”uh uh uh! I'm yet to finish. This is not my order but Mr. Zeng's. He got disturbed after hearing about your not so little adventure in North City”
Upon seeing her accusing look he raised both his hands, ”I didn't tell him anything. He was the ex-king of the underworld, don't take him lightly as he has his own resources. Obviously it's no big deal for him to get information about his granddaughter. So, if you don't want him to come here and shed Kong's blood you better keep yourself safe and stop being stubborn everytime”
She took a deep breath, ”Fine! I'm keeping this gun”
”Good! Now let's talk about business” He moved closer and sat beside her. Xiu Mei saw him forwarding a file, ”Sign on these documents”
She took the file to take a look and was shocked after reading a few pages. It was the legal documents, after signing them R-Tech would officially be separated from Phoenix Enterprises. She no longer has to use Phoenix Enterprises name to launch her inventions but can do it under her own company name.
She looked up at Xion with a guilty face, ”That decision was just the spur of the moment and not my real intention. I was angry at you and Grandpa for hiding my identity, that's why I spout whatever nonsense came to my mind. I'm not ready to separate myself from Phoenix Enterprises yet, it was my first stepping stone on the path of success. It's my home”
Lu Xion caressed her head gently and spoke with a tone that's reserved exclusively for her, ”I'm proud of you that you took the decision for yourself. Trust me; being your mentor, nothing could have brought me so much happiness than seeing my only student deciding to go independent”
