The Kings 54 Personal And Business Life

Chu Heng couldn't believe the CEO of New Image was right beside them all along. That wasn't it too, she was also the woman that made his Boss have mood swings left and right. Yun Anong never ceases to stop giving him one heart attack after another.

A few seconds pa.s.sed by, and no one said a single thing besides what I said earlier. Mu Yi didn't lift his hand to give me a handshake either. Must be from the shock, I giggled happily on the inside.

Ah, should I just grab his hand to get this over with?

"It's alright if you don't want to," I retrieved my hand back to my side.

"No," Mu Yi grabbed a firm hold of my hand with a smile. "It's my 'pleasure' to finally meet you C.E.O. Yun."

That smile, it was the smile that I was in major trouble. Oh, look at those eyebrows of Mu Yi twitching trying to hold back his anger.

"Should we get going with this meeting?" Mu Yi continued smiling, scaring his employees and including me too.

I think he is setting aside the personal issue with the business issue right now. I think!

"Of course, of course! I know you're a very busy man." I nodded my head in agreement, "If only you would let go of my hand..."

I tried freeing my hand from his grip in the most elegant way I can.

"I don't think so," Mu Yi shook his head. "We wouldn't want you to go disappearing now. That's one of your special talents."

I let out a light laughter to lighten up the mood, "I would never do that! Especially when I'm planning to close down on a great deal."

Everyone standing behind Mu Yi stood up straighter than a stick. They couldn't believe Yun Anong would have the guts to talk like that to CEO Mu. She also let her attention being here known with clarity. It was as if she already knew the deal would be closed within her favor. Even after the damages that happened between her and Shu Meiying.

"Ahem, this way to the meeting room, please." Chu Heng interrupted, if he doesn't stop them, this conversation can continue from sun up to sun down.

"Yes, this way." Mu Yi pulled me along, forcing me to walk next to him while holding hands.

Please just let go of my hand at least! Though I had my head held high as if this was all normal.

Mu Yi finally let go of my hand once we got into the meeting room with the doors locked. Seems like he needed to make sure the doors were secure, so I didn't have a way to escape.

"I'm not going to run away," I hissed, rubbing my hand once he let go of it.

Anyway, if I did run away, it wouldn't be right now! I mean there is a second escape route, which are those beautiful crisp clear windows right across from me. All I have to do is smash into them and jump to my death.

Mu Yi leaned down and whispered, "Liar, you're already making escape routes in your head."

"No," I sat down on my destinated seat in the room, which was right next to Mu Yi. I made 'one' escape route, not routes.

Ahem, clearing my throat, I started running down the base plan we had initially agreed upon. The only change was the spokesperson who needed to replace Shu Meiying.

"As you can see CEO Mu, I am the CEO of New Image, so I cannot be the spokesperson you're looking for-"

"So?" Mu Yi interrupted me, "Who said a CEO cannot be the spokesperson for their own products and another company's products?"

In other words, he was stating he doesn't care if I am the CEO. He still wants me to be the main person for his project.

I tried once again to get my points across, "I am flatter, but I have someone better for the position-"

"No one is better than you." Mu Yi interrupted me again, crossing his arms with a grin.

"G.o.d d.a.m.n Mu Yi! Would you just listen!" I slammed my hand on the table.

Unsurprisingly, the room became extremely quiet... Oppos, I forgot I was in a room filled with other people beside Mu Yi and me. It felt like there was just us based on our two-way conversation.

I coughed twice to find my dignity and trying to get rid of my heated up cheeks, "As I was saying, I found someone better for the position. It is the model, Yoon Julian. He is excellent for this position because this year he will be announcing that he is retiring from the entertainment world. His last project will be with us. He has a lot of fans out there who would support him and supporting his last time would be purchasing our products!"

I proceeded to ramble on quickly, so Mu Yi wouldn't get a chance to interrupt me again, "Julian had already agreed to this project, and we only need to reach into an agreement. Just that Julian's contract will be under New Image."

Good, I finished everything I needed to say in one go. I wiped away the invisible sweats from my forehead.

Mu Yi tapped his pen on the table as if he was thinking it over. Then looked at me with one eyebrow raised, "How do you know Yoon Julian? You appear to be close enough with him to get updates on his retirement plan?"

"Is that really the point right now?" I tried to keep my friendly CEO smile on. After everything I said was that all he heard from me?

"Yes, when you are going to be my wif-"

I covered Mu Yi's mouth with one of the folders quickly to prevent him from speaking out the last word. I guess business and personal life are being mixed in this meeting!
