CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT (48) Punish Him

In front of the lobby, a car pulled to a stop. A middle aged man stepped out alongside a young man.

The middle aged man, assessed the younger man beside him and patted him on the back.

"Relax,"

Hearing that, Lu Jing gave his father a hard gaze. "It's not that easy."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. It shouldn't be after what that crazy friend of yours did." The man, none other than president Lu bopped his head twice, then said again. "Lets go in."

Mingyu whom was assigned at the last floor, sat in front of a computer screen displaying videos of three different angles.

One turned to the entrance from the end of the building, another turned to the entrance from the other end, it was also showing the entrance and the third one was right above the lobby doors.

Seeing the two visitors through his computer screen, a frown instantly masked his face.

He spoke into the office radio transceiver, calling the attention of the security team. After that he sent a signal to the last floor then strode out on a mission.

How dare that man show his filthy face, after what happened? Doesn't he have an ounce of shame? Well, he couldn't blame the son only, the saying, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree was true. Like father, like son.

President Lu and Lu Jing was blocked by the security teams.

Lu Jing glanced behind him and saw that they had been surrounded, a sigh escaped his throat. Everyone else passing by stopped in their track to know what's going on.

Mingyu looked the two men up and down, and with a nod of his head, four guards went to hold Lu Jing down.

The two guards, they brought along, tried to struggle but it was of no use.

"Isn't that President Lu?"

"I can't believe him. He still has the face to come see our boss even after what happened."

"Look at that face he's making, it's all an act."

"Truly, evil people are roaming around everyday with sad expression. As if they are being misunderstood."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... what a shame."

Lu Jing gritted his teeth, he had no reason to struggle, nor be offended by their blatant remarks, if he can suffer this much shame to be forgiven by that queen above, he was willing to take it all in and swallow his pride. Zhang Wei was the reason for all these. He noted.

His lips subconsciously lifted and his eyes to look above, the only thing that met his eyes were white ceiling with spotlights.

"Aish..." president Lu started, looking straight at Mingyu. It was an awkward situation for him, but who did he have to blame for it? It was his foolish son. "Don't worry, we are here to apologize to..."

"I'm sorry but you're not allowed to meet Miss Chen!" A voice rang throughout the lobby, causing every head to turn to it. The haughty air sorrounding the voice, caused the whisperers to hush.

Clad in a brown silk suit, chocolate shoes to match, he looked nothing like the secretary they knew him as.

Ye Zedong's face was expressionless, his blank face was hard to read, not knowing what to do, President Lu, tried to move towards the man but more security guards blocked him.

With his hands in his pants pocket, Ye Zedong made his way towards the swamped area.

"Secretary Ye, listen to me..."

"We are still being nice, by holding down your son only..." Ye Zedong's voice was filled with menace. "Kindly take your leave to avoid disrespect."

President Lu swallowed. He couldn't risk having bad blood with the Chen's at this moment in time.

Especially not with Rose as the head, she has more wisdom as a young aspiring lady, if they continued to be cool, then maybe in the nearest future, his company would be lucky enough to collaborate with the Chen Empire.

So he has no other choice than to beg for his son's actions, even if Zhang Wei was to be blamed... Aish, there was no time.

President Lu lifted his head, licked his lips, and joined his hands and was ready to prostrate. It was evident that the man standing before them was none other than the right hand man of Young Miss Chen, so if he could get past him... he would be on the way to Rose.

"Please, just listen to us for once. Okay? You can even punish my..." President Lu trailed off. Lu Jing is his only child, but he was ignorant of many things. He remembered that day, when he received a call from his son asking that he wanted to meet with Young Miss Chen. With hope and happiness, he took his time to call the Chen Empire landline, patiently waiting for his call to be transferred, because he didn't have anyone to call. He had thought his son, was now willing to venture into more business and grow their material making company, only to receive a call late in the night that, Jing had been arrested. He shouldn't have...

"Take them away!" President heard the commanding voice of Ye Zedong and came back to his senses.

"Please, punish my son. Do whatever you want to him, if it will make Miss Chen forgive my ignorance!!"

Lu Jing: "..." Punish him? Do whatever they want to him? Wait? Did his father bring him here as a bait or...? "Fa..."

"Shut up." President Lu eyed him dangerously. "It's all your fault anyway."

Mingyu's hawk like eyes, remained on the father and son, unwavering and he really wanted to beat them up. What did they take them for? It was great to see their boss allow the police to their work. But for these two men to be standing before them, it was like a blow to his guts.

His blood boiled, and his head veered to meet Ye Zedong's gaze.

The two didn't need to talk to communicate. Ye Zedong understood that anger laying beneath that cold face, he also had the same feeling, but there was many eyes on them.
