Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Gasps could be heard as soon as Li Wei finished his sentence. 

"What?!"

"Have you lost your mind!"

"Y-Young Master Li, what are you saying?" 

"C.E.O. Li, aren't you acting too stubborn?" 

"Am I listening, right?"

These questions were heard after a few moments of silence. But these were only half of the old men speaking.

The others were dumbfounded, so much that they could not find anything to say. 

Furthermore, the files that were handed opened their dark secrets.

With shaking hands and sweat on forehead, as they continued to read them, they were making a rough guess what damage these papers would do, if made public. 

Corruption, extramarital affairs, consumption of drugs, visiting the red light areas, the files were filed with all these. 

Li Wei, on the other side, was not at all interested in this, rather he was bored. 

Mu Shufen was still in a daze on seeing all this, that was happening in front of him. 

"So, gentlemen what would you choose?" said Li Wei with a devilish smile on his face. 

"W-Why are you doing this?" asked one of them. 

Li Wei raised an eyebrow at this, and then showing a big smile, that had hidden meaning behind it, he said, "Hmmm...lets see. Maybe because-, just because I feel like it."

Hearing his answer, the board of directors was dumbfounded.

Just because he feels like it? He asked to back down from the position, threatening them with their bad deeds, just because he feels like it? Is this even logic?

These thoughts were running in the minds of every person present in there. 

Mu Shufen as well was confused, but he did not let it show on his face. 

"Y-You are stepping out of your boundaries," a person said, 

The devilish smile on Li Wei's face disappeared, and now with a serious and cold face, he said, "Then what are my boundaries, Mr. Gu? Care to tell me?" 

"T-That," Old Man Gu was speechless at this. 

After a pause, he said, "Enough time we have wasted. Now then, in front of you are the papers for transfer of shares, sign it or let your deeds be exposed to the world. You have five minutes to think about it."

With having no choice, all of the men signed the papers for the transfer of shares one by one. 

"Of course, I am not so heartless. You will be getting twice the amount of your shares soon," said Li Wei as the video conference ended. 

Meanwhile, listening to the sentence, 'I am not so heartless' from Li Wei, the old men cursed him in their hearts.

On the other hand, after the meeting was over, Li Wei and Lu Shufen, no one said a thing. 

"What is it, Shufen?" asked Li Wei while his eyes on the tablet he was working on. 

"T-That, C.E.O. pardon me, but what was the reason behind doing so?" finally Mu Shufen asked the questions that lingered in his mind. 

Instead of answering, Li Wei passed the tab to Mu Shufen. Taking the tab, Mu Shufen started to read the contents in it. 

As he started to read, his eyebrows knitted. His lips parted in surprise. Li Wei did not say anything with an expressionless face, he kept his eyes on Mu Shufen. 

"Did you get it?" asked Li Wei. 

Mu Shufen nodded and shook his head, which clearly told that he was still confused. 

Li Wei got up from his seat and went towards his secretary. He patted his shoulder and then said, "Don't worry, you will get to know it clearly tomorrow, now go to sleep." 

Mu Shufen with a dazed mind, exited the room, and now Li Wei was left alone, and so decided to sleep for tomorrow's flight. 

.....

The next day, 

Li Wei was getting ready when he heard a knock on the door. "Come in," he said. 

Mu Shufen came in rushing, that made Li Wei raise an eyebrow, "What is it?" Li Wei asked. 

"C.E.O., the shares of the Avianlight have gone down, just as you said," said Mu Shufen gasping for air.

Listening to this, Li Wei nodded. 

"But then C.E.O. what about the board of directors of the Avianlights? They will sell-," 

"They won't," said Li Wei cutting Mu Shufen's words in between. 

"How are you so sure?" asked Mu Shufen. 

Li Wei sighed, sometimes this secretary of his really becomes dumb. 

"Did you check the new shareholders?" asked Li Wei as he adjusted his coat. 

Mu Shufen nodded and said, "Yes."

"Check again. And tell me what's common in them," said Li Wei, as they got out of the suit. 

Following Li Wei, Mu Shufen did the work that Li Wei gave told him to do. 

"What is common in them?" asked Li Wei as they both entered the elevator. 

"They all are the ones, who had the potential but were rejected by the enemy companies, due to their lack of connections." 

Getting out of the elevator, Li Wei continued, "That is what will make them hold on the shares of the Avianlight."

Mu Shufen did not say anything and kept on thinking for some time. As they took a step out of the hotel, Mu Shufen gasped in shock. 

He got it. He understood it all. Aye...his boss his too smart. 

"I understand C.E.O. intentions. I am sorry, for asking such dumb questions," said Mu Shufen.

Li Wei nodded while putting on his sunglasses, as they were exposed to the sunlight, outside the hotel. 

It was Tuesday morning in China when Li Wei and Mu Shufen arrived. 

After taking the flight for fourteen hours, Li Wei decided to pay a visit to the Li Mansion. 

…. 

Li Mansion 

It has been three days since Li Wei went overseas. Madam Li got the news that Li Wei's flight had already landed and he was on his way to Li Mansion, and so she decided to make his favorite dishes for lunch. 

As for Yang Sying, she was staying in the Li Mansion from the time Li Wei went overseas. 

Some times helping Liu Roulan in chores and spending time with her, had become common for her. 

Over time, she retorted many kinds of information from Liu Roulan regarding Li Wei's likes and dislikes. 

"Aunt Li, let me help you," Yang Sying said as she entered the kitchen, where the cook and the maids were being instructed by Liu Roulan. 

"It's ok dear. It's almost done, you don't need to worry about it," said Liu Roulan with a gentle smile on her face. 

"But Aunt Li, you can go relax. I will handle everything from here," said Yang Sying with a smiling face. 

Listening to this, Liu Roulan sighed and said, "OK, OK I am going. I will leave this to you then. You are a filial child," as she patted her head and exited the kitchen. 

As soon as Liu Roulan left, the smiling face of Yang Sying became dull and with a disgusted expression, she said, "What are you all waiting for? Go do your work as Aunt Li instructed."

The old cook gritted his teeth and so did the other maids.

This woman was a two-faced serpent. She would behave nicely to them in front of Madam Li, but in her absence, she showed her true nature. 

The servants wanted to tell Madam Li but then refrained from doing so because they really respected Madam Li and did not want to see her hurt. 

Furthermore, they were quite sure that Madam Li won't believe them because of her liking towards Yang Sying. 

And so drinking their hatred they got back to work. 

Yang Sying went back to the hall, where Liu Roulan was sitting and looked quite impatient probably for Li Wei's arrival. 

A servant came announcing his arrival and after a moment Li Wei entered the house followed by Mu Shufen. 

"I am back," said Li Wei as he gave a hug to Liu Roulan. 

Mu Shufen greeted Madam Li. 

"You both must be hungry, the lunch is ready," Liu Roulan said. 

At the dining table, Yang Sying kept asking Li Wei about his trip to America. 

"America is a beautiful place. If I would have been there, I would become your guide for sightseeing," she said with a little sad expression. 

"We were there for business," Li Wei said with an expressionless face. 

Yang Sying looked towards Liu Roulan with a pitiful expression. 

"Don't worry, Sying. After your engagement you both could make a trip to America, then you can show him there, isn't that good Li Wei?" Liu Roulan said excitedly. 

Li Wei instead of answering, said, "I am full. Then I will take my leave," as he got up from his seat. 

"But you just came. Rest a bit," said Yang Sying. 

"Sying is right, you must be tried," Liu Roulan said. 

"I am not tired. There is work pending in the company. I can't ignore that," Li Wei said and turned around to leave. 

Liu Rolan could not say anything, she knew that there is no use of it. 

Whereas Yang Sying gritted her teeth again in annoyance, she was not getting any chance to talk with Li Wei.
