Chapter 2 Liu's People Are not Allowed to be Here!
In the dinning hall, Mike Yue made the whole atmosphere embarrassing.
Though Liu’s family doesn’t have much fame or prestige in Chuzhou City, they were in cooperation with Fengxing Group, the most powerful company in Chuzhou, which made this family a member of the upper class. Quite many Mr and Mrs Big attended Peter’s birthday celebration today.
But Mike had turned a party into a farce and made Peter a joke to everyone. It just couldn’t get more embarrassing.
As angry as Peter was, he manage to remain standing with the help of some people of his walking stick, then forced a smile to everyone.
“My apology for what just happened. Mike is a live-in son-in-law of our family. For two years we have treated him well, letting him live in our family unconditionally without even having to have a job. We give him food and bed, and, as you saw today, this is how he shows his gratitude!
“It’s my fault anyway, for having showed him too much tolerance. I’m sincerely sorry for his stupidity, let’s just continue with our party, and don’t let our joyful be ruined by this stupid boy.”
Given Liu’s family’s relationship with Fengxing Group, people all started comforting Peter.
“It’s alright, Peter, that bastard’s just a parasite, you’ve done more than enough for him.”
“None of our mood was ruined, Peter! It’s your birthday, that’s the point!”
“I heard that your family just made another deal with Fengxing group and is about to sign a contract, congratulations!”
All the flatters knocked the anger out of Peter quickly, he started laughing as if nothing happened.
If it weren’t for the cooperation they established with Fengxing Group, there would never be a chance for Liu’s family to thrive and joined the club of the celebrities of Chuzhou and become influential within two years.
Story had it that Fengxing Group, the most powerful company of Chuzhou, was just a subordinate company of Yue’s family, one of the four biggest families in Chuzhou. It was not confirmed yet but quite many people believed so. The road lies ahead of Liu’s family was super promising.
“Thank you, thank you all! I have to say that it’s also an honour for us to grab the chance of working with them, also, thanks to my family’s luck!
“We’ll sign the contract of the new project we’re working on tomorrow, and we’ll never forget what you guys have done to help my family. If there’s any help you need, you can always come to me, my family!”
He seized the chance to advertised Liu’s family, even thought it was his birthday party.
After they settled down the farce, Peter called everyone of Liu’s family to the backstage, staring at Helen’s family grimly.
At that moment, Helen’s family was the aim of everyone’s blame.
“Mike was way out of line, grandpa, there are so many CEOs and presidents and bosses out there!” Said Joe, trying to add fuel to the fire and continued,”Have you tried teaching that lunatic how to
behave himself, Helen? You saw how he scolded all of us, right? It was horrible!”
The disgrace drove Helen’s family into the greatest embarrassment, Helen was still in shock of what Mike did, which left her in tears.
“Sorry...I will divorce him tomorrow. He was...totally out of line.” Said Helen as she bowed and apologize.
Sympathizing with Helen, Xiaohui bowed and apologized as well:”I’m really sorry, we should never have agreed Helen’s marriage with this scum. I still don’t know why mom was so obstinate about this marriage...Dad, Helen would never want such thing to happen as well, don’t be hard on her.”
Ben didn’t even dare say a word under the pressure of Peter.
Peter let out a long sigh, after which she said to Helen:”Well, it was not your fault anyway, it was all because of Mike himself. It would only be a waste of money keeping him in our family. There’s no need to be sorry about this, Helen, just go divorce him tomorrow. And you’ve never slept with him if I’m not mistaken, there are still so many good men out there for you to choose.”
It was a great relief to them that Peter’s didn’t throw a tantrum at them.
But it was actually because that Helen was the only one in Liu’s family that was capable of coping with Fengxing Group, and even Peter himself wouldn’t even be allowed to enter Fengxing’s headquarter.
Thus Peter dare not blame Helen too hard, since only she could keep their relationship with Fengixng Group safe and sound.
Mike headed straight to Fengxing Group after he left the dinning hall.
As the landmark of Chuzhou City, the Fengxing Group’s headquarter was located in the most luxurious shopping district. The three imposing skyscrapers stood in the heart of the city, dwarfing all the other companies including those located in other nearby cities.
“You don’t seem well, what happened, Mike?”
Mark Duan, the president, well, actually not the real one, of Fengxing group was worried seeing Mike trying to get himself drunk with a bottle of white wine.
“I’m divorcing Helen tomorrow...no, I’ll be divorced. That’s the end, I’m no longer her husband, and there goes any connection between me and Liu’s family.” Said Mike as he smiled bitterly.
It was love that made him make the decision of marrying Helen. Mike thought he was the happiest man in the world the day his senior-high dream come true marrying Helen. His grudge against Tianxiong, his father, leaving him alone in Chuzhou turned to gratitude because otherwise he wouldn’t have met Helen.
But everything changed after the marriage, he wasn’t sure if it was all because of the whole Liu’s family or just Helen’s parents. Helen was so mean to him that they didn’t even sleep together for even just once during the two years, which made Mike feel like Helen never treated him as a husband.
All the fantasy of happiness were shattered.
Mike so regretted having waste two years of his life living in shame and disgrace.
“Liu’s family again!” Said Mark, frowned. He was one of Mike’s best friend and was clear about what happened to Mike in the two years of his life in Liu’s family.
He continued:”I told you, bro, that would never treat you like a human. I’m just glad you’re finally out of there now. Your parents would wipe those bastards all out if they know what happened to you! Damn it, I’m gonna do it right now!”
Mark anger kept escalating, looking serious about revenging for Mike.
“Don’t need to,” Said Mike, expressionlessly as he waved his hand to Mark,”The cooperation between Fengxing Group and Liu’s family ends, start from today.”
Then he stopped a while and added:”Xingru company, that Helen’s one, the cooperation remain until the current project we’re working together is done. This is the last thing I’ll do for her.”
Mark seemed confused:”After she treated you like that? Why?”
Mike shook his head, bordering upon sobbing:”I’m not one of that kind of people. I promised to take good care of her grandma, which would end tomorrow after the divorce, then we’ll be on each others’ way and never meet again.”
Mark answered Mike’s persistence with silence, then he took a bottle of wine that worth over ten thousand bucks and filled Mike’s cup up.
“Take this one, that white shit would kill you. This may be the best ending. Think about it: You’re the eldest son of Yue’s family, this is a hell-of-a honour to those Liu’s bastard! You’ve helped them for tow
years and it’s time to put a stop to it. You’re a goddamn dragon, Mike! And tomorrow they’re gonna see who you really is and bow before your power.”
Then Mark made a call and asked Verse in.
She’s a daughter of another family of upper class in Capital City, also the secretary of Fengxing’s Group. Every family, even small ones, is quite well-known there. To Verse, there had never been a shortage of boys who try to pursue her, but she came to Chuzhou after hearing Mike was here, and had been here for two years.
“Verse, you...”
Mark whispered at Verse’s ear, asking her to try to console Mike. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
And nothing could exhilarate her more than knowing that Mike was about to get a divorce.
High heels all set, Verse walked into the office after Mark left, leaning on Mike shoulder as she put her snow-white legs right in front of him.
Well, we all know what she meant.
And she had been waiting for it for two years.
“Don’t be sad, Mike, Helen would never deserve your kindness and love. Forget about her, Mike, whatever you find appealing on her, you’ll find them more appealing on me. I beat her to everything, see? My body, my beauty, and I treasure you!”
The Aphrodite of the silver-spoons of Capital City was huddling on Mike like a kitty.
But Mike was in no mood of flirting.
“Get off me.”
That came the imposing figure of Mike, which he had been hiding for two years, and it terrified Verse immediately.
“Mike...what is it in Helen that attracts you so much? Why do you never lay your eyes on me?”
Tears almost ran out of her eyes, Verse stared into Mike’s eyes.
“I’m...I’m just too tired, gotta take a break.” Sighed Mike, later he said to Verse:”Tell the others that no Liu’s people should be allowed to enter Fengxing Group’s headquarter, not even Peter. Let the make a fuss if they find it unacceptable. Especially Joe...”
Mike get pissed right after Joe’s face came into his mind.
“He’s gonna get his ass kicked if he dares show up!”
