Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Tang Jian's question made Manager Bai frown. Just this morning, there was already a rumor spreading around the company.

It was said that Dauntless' director of management found out that Gong Sun has been feeding other competitor companies with the private data. Not only that, Gong Sun had been in contact with other entertainment companies to hinder some of the projects that Dauntless has been working on and gave the higher-ups headache just to deal with these leaks'.

"When did this happen?" Manager Bai asked her.

Tang Jian glanced at her, "It happened early in the morning, but it only spread around in the afternoon when someone saw Gong Sun walking out of the building carrying his things with him." She took a pause before chuckling, "Speaking of which, there was even someone saying that they saw him being chased by the guards."

Manager Bai fell silent. Her expression remained calm and expressionless, but inwardly, her heart was lurching in terror. It was mainly because she and Gong Sun had worked together just recently.

Gong Sun contacted her personally about his plans in order to be promoted to a higher position in the company. Manager Bai thought it would be great if she rode his coattail to earn a few more bucks thus, she fed him with some information she received from Tang Jian.

"Manager Bai?" Tang Jian noticed the paleness in her manager's face.

Manager Bai didn't respond to her.

...

At the same time.

A man was drinking endlessly at a club in S city. His necktie was abandoned to the back of his chair and the top button on his shirt was undone. Two beauties sat on both his side and served him drinks while ceaselessly flirting with him.

This was the scene that Feng Huai saw when he entered the room. The veins on his forehead bursted as anger simmered inside of him. He was worried when he received a call from Gong Sun saying to meet up at a club. He thought that Gong Sun drank a lot and needed someone to bring him home,  but who would have thought he would be sitting next to women.

This was the husband of his sister. How could he just sit there with some beauties and drink joyfully when his wife was crying alone?

"Gong Sun!" Feng Huai marched towards his drunk brother-in-law and was about to punch him.

However, before he could even land a hit on him, Gong Sun suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Feng Huai. "Ah, there is my great young brother-in-law!"

Feng Huai frowned when he heard him. "What do you think are you doing? Do you even remember you have a wife, that is my sister, at home waiting for you?"

Gong Sun smirked at him, "Yes, I do remember. How can I forget?"

Feng Huai scowled at his lack of reaction. He thought that Gong Sun would defend himself or even make an excuse, but he isn't even feigning ignorance.

But even though Feng Huai was mad at him for treating his sister like this, Gong Sun was still the man who earned hundreds of thousands of dollars in just a few months. And Feng Huai was relying on his brother-in-law to enter a better company.

Swallowing the anger that bubbled upwards, Feng Huai forced himself to sit down and asked, "What happened to you?"

Gong Sun fell silent for a few seconds then he opened his mouth with a thunderous confession, "Dauntless fired me. They're planning to sue me. And now, if I don't pay them back 100 million dollars tomorrow, I'll be sent to prison for infringement of confidential company secrets."

Feng Huai stood up from where he sat and exclaimed, "What!"

He couldn't believe what was coming out of Gong Sun's mouth.

However, the serious expression on Gong Sun's face didn't look like he was lying. There was no way that he would lie and prank Feng Huai about these things.

But Feng Huai still couldn't accept this. He couldn't understand why this would happen to them now.

"Th â€"then what should we do now??" asked Feng Huai.

"...I don't know." Gong Sun fell silent for a moment before he continued to say, "The best option for me right now is to pay the 100 million dollars to avoid being sent to prison. The vice president of Dauntless gave me a way out because he is my senior, but if I tried to run away and didn't pay the 100 million to them by tomorrow, the police would then appear in front of our house."

Feng Huai also thought this was the only way to get out of this situation. He nodded his head in agreement and said, "Then, do you have the 100 million with you?"

Since Gong Sun went to a club and paid to buy so many bottles of alcohol and even had two beautiful ladies serve him, he should have the money to pay back Dauntless right?

Unfortunately, his thoughts were wrong as Gong Sun shook his head. "I only have 30 million with me. The rest... I don't have them."

"What do you mean you don't have them? How are you going to pay them back then if you don't have 100 million dollars?" Feng Huai was even more surprised when he learned that Gong Sun only has 30 million with him.

Isn't Gong Sun someone who earns a few hundred of thousands of dollars in a few months? He has been in the industry for a decade yet he only has 3 million? Is this some sort of a prank?

But then, he heard Gong Sun saying with a sneer, "I also only found out about the fact that I only have 30 million in my bank account. When I inquired why I only have this much left, they sent me a list of things that had been bought six months ago until now. All of these items were branded goods and high-quality stuff."

A crazy smile was on his lips as he tilted his head, asking, "Hey, Feng Huai, why don't I, the owner of the money, know where all these came from? Why can't I even see it?"

Feng Huai glared at him, "Who are you accusing Gong Sun? You don't have to be so cryptic about it, are you blaming my sister?"

Gong Sun shrugged, "Isn't that the truth?"

Feng Huai grabbed him by the collar and shouted, "Gong Sun!"

He couldn't allow anyone to scold his sister!

Gong Sun snorted disdainfully, "I won't pursue this matter since I am married to your sister. I allowed her to use my money, but she spent it carelessly. However, it's another matter for you."

Feng Huai: "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you earn enough? Help me just this once and I'll forget about divorcing your sister and make her pay back all the things she bought without my knowledge." Gong Sun let out a provocative sneer.

Feng Huai was shocked at his words. His sister met Gong Sun during a blind date. The two dated each other for a few months before officially dating. However, their parents were against her marrying someone who came from the entertainment industry only because Feng Huai mentioned in the past that those who worked in his circle were all dirty people.

However his sister went on a hunger strike for a few days. His parents didn't want to hurt their only daughter and they ended up accepting Gong Sun as their son-in-law.

Feng Huai had some doubts in the past that Gong Sun didn't really love his sister. But he couldn't do anything to stop his sister from marrying this man.

...

Ran Xueyi woke up at 4 in the morning to the ringing tone of her phone. With a sore waist, she raised her upper body to reach for her phone and accepted the call without glancing at who called her.

"Hello?" her voice was slightly hoarse from the intense activity they did last night.

"Why did you answer now? I've been calling you since yesterday,:: the voice complained.

Ran Xueyi stretched her toes and yawned, "Sorry, I had to go to an event and turned off my phone."

There was a series of noises that sounded like clicky sounds that belonged to a keyboard. Then, the voice sighed before saying, "It's done. Feng Huai's brother-in-law was driven out of Dauntless. He will be forced to compensate the company with 100 million dollars. However, I doubt he will be able to pay it back with the amount of money he has left in his bank account."

At this moment, Ran Xueyi was fully awake. The person who called her was Lapis, one of the members of Lobo, an investigative organization she created during her stay at Ren Country.

A few days ago, she called him to investigate the recent activities of both Gong Sun and Feng Huai after Adelle wasn't able to dig up much. And after getting a detailed report, she gave him a task to mess up Gong Sun's illegal operations by giving Dauntless an irrefutable tip of Gong Sun's plans.
