Chapter 608: Talk About the Language of Love

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Since all Shen Xi could think about was to see Li Yuan soon, she did not notice who was standing near her. With the voice sounding familiar, she turned to scan the face and recognized him to be Shen Feng’s high school mate and He Lu’s boyfriend – Xia Ze.

Even after that good humiliation, the moron sure had to cheek to act cocky in front of her.

Xia Ze was staring at her and noticed the food she was carrying. All the more he had no reason to hide his contempt and disdain. “Shen Xi, take a look around. Is this somewhere anyone can come and go as they please? Have a bit of sense and get out of here. Please save yourself from embarrassment.”

Following the b*tch’s scare back at their hometown, his father dragged him to apologize to Qi Xiu. Xia Ze had been holding it against Shen Xi since.

Qi Xiu, the lounge singer, achieved instant fame as the hottest singer-songwriter in China. Xia Ze knew better than to mess with someone in the limelight who was also backed by a mysterious big gun.

On the other hand, Xia Ze had never heard if Shen Xi had anything to show for. Her family was only hilly-billy nouveau riche.

The brat was bold to trumpet that she was here to work on a project with the CEO of Li Corporation. Xia Ze had been to Li Corporation no less than ten times and yet he did not have the pleasure to meet the executives, let alone the CEO. He had been engaging with a leader of small projects.

“Moron.” Shen Xi scoffed. Without giving him another glance, she smiled at the receptionist and said politely, “If you could, thank you.”

The receptionist was unable to take her eyes away from the girl’s beauty. She grinned courteously. “Please wait a moment.”

Since she was not authorized to call straight to the CEO’s secretary office, the receptionist first reported to the department in charge to relay the message from the bottom to the top.

“What business do you have here, Shen Xi?” Xia Ze gave her a side glance.

Shen Xi returned the question. “What business do you have?”

Straightening his back, Xia Ze uttered arrogantly, “Do you know anything about AI? I’m doing just that. I am the person responsible for the AI robot project of our Capital University. I came to establish a working relationship with Li Corporation.”

“Artificial Intelligence? More like Artificial Idiocrasy.” Shen Xi was not in the mood to bicker with those who did not know when to quit. “My advice is for your project team to change the person in charge to someone else.”

“Who are you to tell me off?” Xia Ze was up in arms. “Whoever leads our project team is not your decision to make. Who do you think you are?”

“Sure, I might not have a say in who gets to lead your project team, but I can decide for Li Corporation not to cooperate with a moron like you.” Shen Xi smiled at him. “If you still want your team to work with Li Corporation, your best choice is to quit your position.”

The AI research unit at Capital University was world-class. Li Corporation would consider teaming up with Capital University if the company was interested to go down this route.

The talents at the university were the country’s best. Since she was a student at Capital University herself, Shen Xi knew that not everyone was a moron like Xia Ze.

It was unnecessary to discount everybody for their hard work because of Xia Ze alone. Surely, Xia Ze, the dimwit must be sent here for the negotiations due to his lack of results in the research department.

“Who do you think you are?” Xia Ze’s face flushed while his eyes were spitting fire. Had it not for the fact that they were in public, Xia Ze would have taught the brat a lesson. “It’s not like Li Corporation won’t work with me just because you say so.”

“Yes, whatever she says goes.”

It was not Shen Xi who answered him, but a magnetic male voice.

Xia Ze raised his head and saw a man in the wheelchair heading his way. Carrying himself in an air of chilling murderous intent, the man swept a fleeting glance at Xia Ze. The man’s cold eyes sent shivers to his bones.

Hearing the voice, Shen Xi waved her hand at the person and let out a bright smile. She cried sweetly, “Brother, why did you come down in person?”

“Ms. Shen, I heard you had something to discuss with me?” Taking in her smile, Li Yuan opened his mouth. “What kind of talk do you have in mind?”

Shen Xi bolted toward him bubbly. She reflected for a brief moment before uttering, “To talk… Talk about the language of love!”

The employees in the lobby were completely dumbstruck. The lady behind the reception desk had her jaw dropped.

The noble yet aloof man in the wheelchair was Li Corporation’s most distinguished man. As a matter of fact, he was the most prominent man in the whole of China as the head of the Li household and CEO of Li Corporation – Li Yuan.

Every employee had to sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to coming on board. They were not to describe the CEO’s appearance to anyone.

Hence, no one in the outside world had an inkling of what the CEO looked like. The employees would rather die than reveal the secret.

However, they also knew the outside world was spot on with their callous and merciless impression of their CEO. The employees had never seen a smile on the CEO’s face.

Yet now, the CEO came all the way down in person to welcome, chat, and smile—all for the girl. The girl even jumped into his arms and placed the junk food on his lap.

Kun Lun came over and gazed respectfully at Shen Xi who plunked down all the junk food on Li Yuan’s lap. His eyelids were twitching. “Ms. Shen, how should we take care of this person?”

Jesus. Could they cut it with the public display of affection?

There went Boss’s indifferent image.

“Oh, him. Talk with Capital University’s project team. Terminate the partnership if they insist on using him.” Shen Xi kneeled before Li Yuan and asked blissfully, “What do you say, Brother? He acts like a snob and is an embarrassment to Capital University.”

Pulling a poker face, Li Yuan glanced at Xia Ze and coldly remarked, “Feed him to the dogs.”

Xia Ze had not seen Li Yuan before as the CEO of Li Corporation never once appeared in public. Although less than a handful in China ever met him face-to-face, Kun Lun often appeared on various financial and economics magazines and forums. It was a known fact that Kun Lun was the spokesperson and assistant to Li Corporation’s CEO.

He was no dummy. Judging by Kun Lun’s attitude, Xia Ze was able to guess the identity of the man in the wheelchair. His heart sank and he nearly peed his pants. Dropping onto his knees in a thud, he begged, “Mr. Li, it’s all my fault. Please have mercy. I’m a moron, a dog, an idiot. You don’t want to waste your time with a brute like me.”

Everyone knew the CEO of Li Corporation was ruthless and cold-blooded. Anyone who overstepped their boundaries had never lived to see another day.

It never crossed Xia Ze’s mind that Shen Xi knew Mr. Li. Otherwise, he would never disrespect her.

“What do you say?” Li Yuan turned to his fair lady.

Feeding the sightless punk to the dogs was too small of a price for coming at his fair lady.
