Inside the tallest building in Imperial, a commotion was taking place on the first floor. The workers of Lu Corps gather to see what is going on. To their surprise, it was a curly blonde hair woman.

Two securities blocked the woman's path from entering the elevator. They did not show the woman any kind of politeness at all.

A girl worker peaked from behind the wall and she gasp as she grabs her friend beside her.

"Isn't that Qian Li Li?"

The friend's eyes wide and she gasp, "It is her! What is she doing here? I thought she was let go?"

Soon, whispers amongst the workers of Lu Corps turn into an uproar realizing who the woman was. Seeing this, the blonde hair woman's expression turned grave. She glares at the two security guards.

"Let me through, I have to speak with Mr. Lu."

One of the guards looked at Qian Li Li. He did not smile or show any signs of moving, "Miss Qian, you are no longer an employee here. Please leave while things have not gotten out of hand."

Qian Li Li grit her teeth tightly together. She could not believe she was being treated this way. She is Lu Corp's beauty, how can these two lowly guards treat her this way?!

Glancing to the side, she see Secretary Ye walking through the doors. Her eyes lit up in that moment and she runs to the woman.

"Secretary Ye, please tell these two security guards to let me pass. I have an appointment with Mr. Lu today."

She was confident that secretary Ye would help her out. No one inside Lu Corps, besides Xu Long would disregard her.

Secretary Ye was taken back by surprise. She looked at Qian Li Li from head to toe. The woman was wearing a short white wrapped dress with black stepped heels. Even she has to admit that Qian Li Li is a pretty woman, but.....

When compare to her future lady boss, this Qian Li Li is no where near.

She smiles at Qian Li Li then touch her chin, "Miss Qian you're here to meet Mr. Lu?"

Hearing this, Qian Li Li was even more happier. Her eyes glisten more and she raise her chin highly.

"Yes, now that you know, tell them to let me through. I have something important to discuss with Mr. Lu."

Secretary Ye sneer inside at how stupid Qian Li Li looked at this moment. She stare at woman and couldn't see what the men in Lu Corps are thinking. How can someone who underwent so many surgeries be so full of herself?

Shaking her head, she walks pass Qian Li Li and the two guards. She has things to take care of and cannot stall time here.

As Secretary Ye walked pass the two security guards, Qian Li Li took it as que to follow. She walks after, but the moment she took her second step, she was quickly blocked.

Her expression turned white and green and she glares at the two guards, "Why are you blocking me? Secretary Ye, tell them to let me pass."

Secretary Ye turned around to look at the blonde hair woman. She sighed and shook her head again, "Miss Qian, don't embarrass yourself more than you already have. In regards to today's 'meeting', Mr. Lu has no meetings today."

Finishing her words, Secretary Ye didn't bother to give Qian Li Li another look. She turns around and enter the elevator. Her Boss does have meetings today, but did any of those meetings include Qian Li Li, of course not!

"..."

Qian Li Li was dumbfounded and rooted to the ground. She stare at the closed elevator door and blood slowly rush to her head in anger.

"Can you believe this? Qian Li Li said she has a meeting with Mr. Lu, but Secretary Ye denied it."

"Does she not have shame at all?"

"I heard she used to go up to the top floor. From the looks of it now, all of it must be an excuse only."

"Who does she think she is? She can't even be compared to our future lady boss!"

As the whispers continue, Qian Li Li clench her fists. She never thought she'd be in this position. Her father is a board member of Lu Corps, how can she be treated like a peasant?! So what if she is not as pretty as Han Yue Ling, she has great looks more than any other woman.

Glaring at the elevator door then the two security guards, Qian Li Li turned around to leave. As long as her father still holds a high position in Lu Corps, she still has a chance to be Mrs. Lu!

Watching her leave, both security guards shook their head. Although Qian Li Li has a great outer appearance, her personality was too horrible. It's not wonder their boss never paid any attention to her.

As the commotion calmed down, inside the CEO's office, the two people inside were oblivious to what had happen. Of course, if one of the men had known and witnessed it, he would be laughing until tears came out his eyes.

Xu Long stood in front of his boss's desk and he stare at the man. When he arrived at work, his first assignment was to report. However, it's been a while and his boss has not said a word.

Setting the report down, Lu Tian looks up at his assistant, "Is this is?"

"Yes, boss. That's everything."

Xu Long quickly answered. Everything he found is in the report. He made sure that nothing was left out.

Lu Tian nod his head, "You may leave and prepare."

"Right away boss."

Like the sun rising high in the sky, Xu Long's eyes beam the same. He smiles and salutes to his boss and quickly leaves the office. There is nothing more amusing to him than watching his boss destroy bad people's scheming fortune!

The door to his office closed and Lu Tian reach into a drawer to take a cigarette out. He then stood from his seat and walked over to the floor to ceiling window in his office.

As he lit the cigarette, he thought about Xu Long's report. It turned out that Doctor Xie is not a doctor of righteousness. The man has scammed not only the Nuo family, but many families in Imperial.

From the report, Doctor Nuo injects different types of sedation into the IV's put in his patients. By doing so, it can change the cause of a patient reason for being hospitalized. Not only that, it will make them too ill to leave the hospital.

Just like granny Nuo's condition right now. The old man had first started injecting a small amount of barbiturates into the IV to keep granny Nuo unconscious. Although it was not harmful at first, he started using more dose. The more he uses it, the cause of it will slow down the brain and nervous system. Before someone can detect it, the patient would have died by seizure.

Once that happen, all traces will not lead evidence to Doctor Xie, because the patient's death will look like it as done by natural causes. If not, then during surgery procedures.

*Slaaaaam—-!*

"Boss, not good!!"

Into his thoughts, the door to his office abruptly opens. He did not jump in surprise or show any signs of emotion. Instead, he calmly turn to the door and he looks at the intruder.

Xu Long's legs turned weak and he fell to his knees. Both his hands held onto the door handle for support like he was going to fall down a mountain cliff. His breath was heavy and he was slightly covered in sweat.

Looking at his assistant, Lu Tian did not know whether to laugh or cry. Didn't Xu Long just leave his office, why did he come back in a mess? However, he knows his assistant and the man would not just enter his office in such manner unless it is important.

"Speak."

Xu Long heard the coldness in his boss's voice, he steady himself and stood up straightly. Taking a step forward, he explains his reason for acting this way.

"Miss Han.... I mean lady boss is meeting with Ning Xingyu at 10am."

Hearing this, Lu Tian's eyes darken ten shades darker. It was as if his pupils turned him into the devil.

Ning Xingyu? Heh, looks like someone is also tired of living.

Turning to the side in a calm movement, he kills the burning cigarette in his hand. Without looking at his assistant, Lu Tian walks over to his desk and grabbed his coat.

Putting his coat on, Lu Tian strides out of his office. He did not look at his assistant, but his voice trailed to the ears.

"Move all meetings I have today to the evening."

Watching from the door, Xu Long struggle to swallow his saliva down. If one was to see his boss this way, one would think the man is calm. However, being Lu Tian's assistant for so many years now, he knows this look all too well.

It is the calm before the storm!*
