The Typhoon's Dangerous Wife

"Young Madam?" Gu Tian\'s anxious voice entered Zhenyi\'s ear.

 A dread spread through her body as soon as she heard an eager and worried voice. She had been in panic since yesterday and now that Gu Tian was calling her early in the morning, her thoughts took her to a deadland. 

"Is Long Jie alright?" It was the first question that Zhenyi asked. 

She didn\'t care about anything at this time but her husband. 

"I have not been able to contact him," Gu Tian quickly replied. He struck his forehead as he realized that he had worried the other person. 

"Then, why the hell do you sound so freaked out?" Zhenyi asked him. She had an urge to strangle this stupid assistant of her husband. But if she hurt him, she was afraid that her husband would get madder at her. 

"We are in a fix," Gu Tian informed her quickly. He got so worried that he didn\'t know who to call at this time. Generally, such problems would be handled by his boss and if he wasn\'t present then by Long Wei but now that both of them were not present, he didn\'t know where to go. 

Gu Tian narrated the events of the whole day to Zhenyi and how they were now stuck in a big mess, all credit goes to a certain man who had disappeared without any trace. 

Zhenyi stifled a yawn as she heard him reporting to her. It was six in the morning for God\'s sake. After all the toss and turns last night, she has finally fell asleep. 

Although she could understand Gu Tian\'s plight, she still didn\'t know how to help him. Right now, all she knew was that she had to keep the news of Long Jie\'s disappearance under wraps. 

"Again, Gu Tian, why are you calling me?" Zhenyi asked him after hearing his report. 

"Young Madam," Gu Tian sighed. "When you asked Mr. Long to take your place, he didn\'t without asking any question. Don\'t you think it\'s your time to help him out?"

Suddenly, the sleepy Zhenyi\'s eyes turned sharp. This assistant had grown fangs as soon as his master was gone! 

"Gu Tian--"

"No, hear me out first, Young Madam. Master always helps you without asking any question. He had been stressed for a long time, given how Du Cooperation is using cheap tricks to stole contracts right under our noses," Gu Tian said in a single breath. "His courage had been increasing day by day but Master had no interest in clipping off his wings before as he had been eyeing him and his actions. However, he got the news from somewhere that Master wouldn\'t attend the meeting that was going to be held today with the foreign clients. He made all arrangements to steal this deal too and it seems if someone won\'t interfere, he will succeed once again." 

Gu Tian was using emotional blackmail by recalling her past events and it was clearly working on her. Foxy Du Zheng! 

[Where the hell are you, Jie?] 

In the end, Zhenyi just spoke four words before hanging up. "Send me the information." 

….

"Mr. Randell, I hope I was able to answer all questions flawlessly," Du Zheng humbly smiled at the foreign man sitting in front of him. Currently, they were sitting in a luxurious private room of a restaurant enjoying the outstanding services. 

Coincidentally, this restaurant was the same restaurant where Long Jie met Zhenyi for the third time. He had spent a lot of his time on planning that business meeting into a date that time. 

Mr. Randall nodded thoughtfully. "To be honest, I am impressed by what your company had to offer. Yet, I couldn\'t answer you for sure. I was invited by Mr. Long first. He had a very tempting offer for me back then…" 

Of course, Du Zheng wasn\'t offended by his honest answer. He knew that it would take him sometime before leaving Long Jie behind. However, he was still sure that this deal was his. 

"Ah, you were not informed that Mr. Long would not be appearing today?" It was Du Zheng\'s turn to be amused. A little birdy had informed him that Long Jie was in Georgia. Thus, this deal was his to secure. As much as he knew Randell, he was certain that he wouldn\'t be signing it with anyone other than Long Jie himself as he had made it certain on many occasions. 

This deal might not mean a lot to Long Jie but it had a great importance to him as securing this deal meant entering the jewellery industry without a hitch. 

No one better than Randells can provide for better raw material in the whole of Asia. 

"Mr. Long is indeed not coming it seemed," Mr. Randell said with a sigh. He checked his watch to find it was five minutes over the settled time. He stood up to shake hands with Du Zheng to finalize the deal. But before they could seal the deal with a handshake, the door to the private room opened abruptly and appeared a smiling Gu Tian. 

"Let\'s get it done, my temporary assistant " Behind him Zhenyi said, fighting a yawn. 

"Mr. Randell, thank you for waiting," Gu Tian said with a polite smile. "Mr. Long had to leave the country at the end moment for an emergency. I hope you will not mind his absence." 

"Mr. Gu, we were expecting Mr. Long," Mr. Remdell\'s voice stoic meaning he wasn\'t impressed with their attitude. First they were late and then instead of apologizing they were asking them not to mind it? 

Du Zheng was quite happy with the current happenings. This Gu Tian succeeded in unimpressing Randell. Ah, Long Jie, you lost another battle to me. 

Before Gu Tian could speak in his sickly honeyed voice, a feminine raspy voice rang, putting Du Zheng in grave shock. "Mr. Long is indeed not present. However, it didn\'t mean that his employees are not capable enough of handling the business during his absence. I\'m sure Mr. Randell\'s employee are as Mr. Long\'s to handle emergencies flawlessly." 

Randell was stunned, impressed and outnumbered. He didn\'t know how to retort. If he said, he would not sign the deal with anyone else other than Long Jie from LG, it meant admitting that only he was a good person to do business with in his own company too. But if he said he was ready to listen to their bargain, it meant submitting before them. 

He was out in quite a dilemma now. 

Gu Tian stepped aside to reveal the figure standing behind him to the other party. 

A stunning woman was standing in the door, dressed in a khaki colored suit. Her hair tied in a pony behind her neck. As she stepped inside, the men standing by the tear were blinded by her overwhelming aura. There were hints of laziness and viciousness in her mismatched eyes. 

The click of heels against the marble jerked Randell out of his stupor. 

"You are?" Randell asked once he was hit by sanity. 

"Xin Zhenyi," Zhenyi introduced shortly. She put forward her hand and asked them like a good host to sit down before sitting first. Unconscious, they obliged. She had this charm of making people do what she desired with a simple gesture. 

"President Xin of Xin Cooperation?"

Zhenyi smiled in agreement. In no time, Randell was speechless. 

"I don\'t remember President Xin interested in my company?" He furrowed his brows. 

"I\'m not. I\'m here on the behalf of President Long," Zhenyi informed him. "I wonder if Mr. Randall is ready to hear the proposal personally prepared by Mr. Long." 

Before Randell could answer, Du Zheng intervened,"Ah, you are late, Miss Zhenyi." 

Zhenyi turned her eyes to find a smug Du Zheng glancing at her. "How come I didn\'t notice my good friend Mr. Du sitting right here by Mr. Randell\'s side?" 

"Long time no see, Miss Zhenyi," Du Zheng smiled despite wanting to rip off the facade of innocence off her face. 

"Long time indeed," Zhenyi muttered. \'Don\'t worry but, Du Zheng. You will be dying soon.\'

"I didn\'t know President Xin and CEO Du we\'re acquainted." Randall said. He didn\'t notice the sudden change of air between the two of them. 

"That\'s very sad to hear." Zhenyi said with a tragic look on her face. 

"Very sad indeed." Du Zheng replied. It was his misfortune to know this woman. Always shoving her led where it didn\'t belong. Turning to smile at Zhenyi , he added,"I didn\'t know that President Long\'s sudden visit to Georgia would force Miss Zhenyi to come here on his behalf."

"People had been gossiping how President Long\'s falling from the list of top business men… it seems time is indeed hard for President Long to ask a woman to attend a very important meeting on his behalf.." These words were not spoken by Du Zheng but the third old man sitting between Du Zheng and Randell, also the man who Zhenyi age been observing for a whole.
