The Dragon Beside Me - Chapter 155

Blue Media Group

The directors and managers in the meeting room decided that they should be cautious. Even though their boss seemed to be in a good mood, none of them dared to take things lightly.

To them, President Long Fei was too unpredictable. Everyone in the room was worried that President Long Fei’s good mood was nothing but a trap. Who knows that once they had their guard low and were not paying attention, this boss would turn things around and scold them to death?

At this time, the manager from the marketing department was giving his presentation. While he was speaking in front of the crowd, the man continued to glance between the screen and President Long Fei alternately. He was examining his boss’s mood and was afraid that he might say something wrong to trigger this man’s bad mood.

Initially, their president had a calm look on his face as he listened to his presentation.

However, as time goes by, the marketing manager soon realized that something was wrong. His body started to tremble when he saw the look on President Long Fei’s face.

An alarm sounded in his mind as he braced himself to be scolded by his boss in front of everyone else.

The marketing manager recalled his presentation and was worried that perhaps he had said something wrong to upset the big boss.

A few seconds ago, Long Fei was listening to the report when he suddenly felt his heart grow heavy and uncomfortable. He pressed a hand at his chest and frowned.

This uncomfortable feeling… he seemed to have experienced this several times before.

As a thought came to his mind, Long Fei picked up his phone and stood up. “This meeting is adjourned.”

Before the others could react, their big boss had already left the meeting room. As they watched their boss disappear behind the wall, the group of directors and managers started to whisper among each other.

Assistant Fu Xing saw that his boss had run out and quickly go after him. “President Long, what’s wrong?”

Long Fei did not answer but he continued to tap his fingers on the phone. The frown on his face deepened when he heard the dial tone on the other line.

However, he still did not give up. Long Fei tried again but the call was still left unanswered.

His heart was feeling uncomfortable and Su Ruan still did not pick up his phone call.

Noticing that his assistant was trailing after him, Long Fei then spoke, “Fu Xing, do you still remember the café that you have sent Miss Su to earlier?” He saw his assistant nod and spoke, “Send me there.”

Fu Xing’s eyes lit up. Thinking that his boss was anxious because something had happened to Su Ruan, Fu Xing picked up his pace and headed to the vehicle which was parked outside the company’s entrance.

Meanwhile, Long Fei continued to dial Su Ruan’s number again. Just as he thought that perhaps the girl was not going to pick up the phone, the phone call was finally connected.

For a second, he wondered whether he was imagining things, but once he heard Su Ruan’s voice on the other line, Long Fei finally calm down.

“Long Fei?” Su Ruan called again when the man did not say a word.

“Su Ruan, are you alright?”

Su Ruan was a little surprised to hear his question. For a while, she was unable to react. “I’m fine. What’s wrong?”

Long Fe placed a hand on his chest and frowned. He could tell that she was not feeling alright. “Are you still at the café?”

“Un.” Su Ruan nodded. “What’s wrong?”

“Then, wait for me. Don’t move around. I will come over to your side quickly.”

“Ah?” Before he could speak, Long Fei had already hung up the phone call. Su Ruan stared at her phone with a dazed look on her face, wondering if she had heard the right thing.

Long Fei was coming to her side?

Judging from his tone earlier, he sounded a little anxious. What happened?

“Su Ruan, what’s wrong?”

Hearing the voice, Su Ruan snapped out of her trance but continued to stare at her phone with the same dazed expression. “No. It’s nothing My boyfriend called.”

Ji Fan Yin’s eyes lit up. “Boyfriend? Then, why do you look so surprised?”

“He told me to wait for him here,” Su Ruan continued. As she was not looking at the editor’s face, Su Ruan did not see the editor’s expression.

“SInce he’s on his way, then, you should wait for him here.”

Su Ruan sent a text to Long Fei and turned to look at the editor. Seeing the glint in the editor’s eyes made her startle. “Editor Ji, what’s wrong? Why… are you looking at me like that”

“Your boyfriend?” Ji Fan Yin flashed a playful smile. “Since you already have a boyfriend, why would Miss Shen accuse you of liking her fiance?”

Su Ruan lowered his gaze. “I don’t understand this as well. Even though I have explained my situation, Miss Shen did believe my word. Was it really impossible for a man and a woman to be just friends?”

Ji Fan Yin let out a helpless sigh. “But Su Ruan, I’m sorry. If it was not for me, you would not be receiving this unfair treatment. I did not expect that my Editor Fang would act like this either.”

“Editor Ji, don’t say it. You were only helping me to get an opportunity.” Su Ruan pursed her lips into a thin line. “You did not plan for this to happen as well.

Ji Fan Yin leaned over and stared at Su Ruan. “Alright. Let’s stop talking about this unhappy thing. Why don’t you tell me about your boyfriend? Previously, you are too busy with your work and did not have time to date. Did you meet him during your break?” As Su Ruan’s editor, she had watched how Yan Xi had bullied Su Ruan, causing the girl to work overtime almost every day.

Su Ruan laughed. “You can say that.”

Suddenly, Su Ruan seemed to recall that Editor Ji Fan Yin was the one who had given her the task to interview Long Fei. If Editor Ji knew that she was dating Long Fei, would she be shocked?
