Chapter 158: The board meeting incident

The two weeks went very slowly for Lie Ruge who was eager to get discharged from the hospital as it was too uncomfortable for her. No matter how hard she tried she could not feel comfortable in the hospital. She has told Yi Lan several times that she wants to get discharged but Yi Lan always coed her into staying for the agreed duration. Although doctor Yue was scared of Yi Lan, he could not help being thankful to him for persuading their Boss to stay in the hospital for treatment. Lie Ruge was elated when the two weeks duration finally came to an end.

Yun Yi, Tan Fan and Xiao Bai arrived at the hospital that day in order to assist Lie Ruge with packing her stuff. They were so happy that Lie Ruge was as good as new once again. She could walk around without anyone's assistance. Her bullet wound was finally closing up but it has not get healed.

" Finally sister-in-law, you are getting discharged like you have always wanted", Tan Fan shouted at the top of his voice when they entered the room and saw that Lie Ruge's stuff had already being packed.

" This calls for a celebration, so how about we throw a party to celebrate sister-in-law's discharge. All cost of the party is on me, sister-in-law. You just have to choose the venue and I will have everything arranged before the end of today", Yun Yi said delightfully while walking closer to where Lie Ruge was sitting down.

" She is not allowed to drink any alcohol so she cannot attend any party and moreover her injury has not healed completely for her to stay outside for hours. You guys can have the party on your own but Ge'er and I will not be able to attend the party", Yi Lan said with a tone of finality.

"Ok Third bro, we will just throw the party after sister-in-law is alright", Yun Yi reluctantly agreed. He did not have any other choice but to agree with him because nobody can refute their Third brother's words. Their Third brother's words is final. There is only one person who has the ability to refute and challenge their third brother's words and that person is Ge'er.

" Let's go Ge'er, you will ride in my car right? I have missed you so much. I have missed our usually girls-day-out that we have always had at the end of every month. We were not able to hold our usually girls-day-out gathering this month because you were hospitalized so how about we try to catch up on each other's adventure and I have something important to tell you. So ride with me please.... ", Xiao Bai pleaded. Lie Ruge quickly shot Yi Lan a brief gaze to ask him whether it was alright for her to go along with Xiao Bai. Although their gaze was brief Xiao Bai could see the look of hesitation on Lie Ruge's gaze when she threw the gaze at Yi Lan.

" I hope it is alright for me to steal Ge'er away from you for some moments. We just want to have girls talk, I hope you won't mind Yi Lan?", Xiao Bai asked. Yi Lan did not want to agree but after seeing the pleading look on Xiao Bai's face he did not want to disappoint her. And from her expression, it looked as if what she wanted to discuss with Lie Ruge was important.

" Sure, but I can't leave her with you for more an hour alright?", Yi Lan said sternly.

" Ok, I will stick to the time", Xiao Bai said excitedly.

" Xiao Bai, if sister-in-law is going with you then whose car will Third brother ride in?", Tan Fan asked curiously.

" Maybe in your car or Yun Yi's car, anyways he will decide that on his own.  If he chooses yours then hell is surely awaiting you for sure", Xiao Bai said laughingly while dragging Lie Ruge by her right hand. After Yun Yi and Tan Fan argued for five minutes about whose car Yi Lan should ride in, Yi Lan at last chose Tan Fan's car to Tan Fan's dismay. He caused his luck at that moment for being the one Yi Lan chose. Yi Lan had previouly suggested that Lie Ruge should stay at his Mansion until she completely recuperate but Lie Ruge said that she will just recuperate at her Mansion after much deliberation, Yi Lan agreed with her. Yun Yi and Tan Fan were so excited when they heard the news because they were going to have a tour at Lie Ruge's Mansion that they had always wanted to visit.

After the two ladies entered the backseat of the car, the driver zoomed off on the road to Lie Ruge's Mansion. Xiao Bai took her time to arrange the format she would relay the news to Lie Ruge without getting her worked up. She cleared her throat before initiating the conversation.

" Ge'er, there are things that has happened in the company that I could not inform you about since Yi Lan was always with you. I didn't know how he will react to what I would say so I decided not to say it when he was around. I hope you won't get mad at me for keeping this from you right",  Xiao Bai asked curiously while holding Lie Ruge's hand.

" What happened? I hope it is not something major and I won't get mad at you for not informing me  earlier since you had a good reason for doing what you did", Lie Ruge said friendly to make her feel relaxed.

" What happened was that, a board meeting was held three weeks ago and the agenda for that meeting was to remove you from your position as the CEO of the company. I was worried that I was going to mess things up at the board meeting but I did exceptionally well. I know you must be very proud of me right?", Xiao Bai asked looking at her cutely.

" Of course I am proud of you", Lie Ruge said patting her hair  playfully.

" But how come you are not one bit surprised about the news? It looks as if you have heard the news from somewhere or has Xu Feng already relayed the news to you?", Xiao Bai asked in doubt.

" No, he didn't.  Although Xu Feng has always reported every activity that took place in the office to me he has not mentioned anything about the board meeting. I guess you must have threatened him well for him not to say anything about it", Lie Ruge said smiling.

" I didn't threaten him that much. I just told him, that if he goes about saying nonsense to you about the board meeting that I will hand him over to Firefly. I didn't know he will actually keep his mouth shut about it. I guess the rumour that Firefly is his worst enemy is true", Xiao Bai said smiling brightly too.

" Yeah I guess so. At the board meeting, what was the reason Director Lie gave for wanting me removed from my position?", Lie Ruge asked looking all serious once again.

" He publicly announced to the board members that you were dead. I felt the urge to strangle him to death when he spout that nonsense in front of shareholders but I just held myself back from doing so", Xiao Bai said in an annoyed manner. Remembering the board meeting incident always made her blood boil in anger. She hate all of them to the core.

" What? I can see Director Lie has become more brazen. He had the guts to announce to everyone that I, Lie Ruge,was dead. Too bad their plan was not a success, their happiness will be short lived with my safe return back home. I think I have not really shown them what I am capable of that is why he had the effrontery to challenge me openly. ", Lie Ruge said fiercely.

" Ge'er I can't wait to see the looks on their faces when they realized that you are alive. I really want to see how humble Lie Changle will be when she sees that you are perfectly fine. Her haughtiness has been getting on my nerves lately that I can barely hold myself back from tearing her into shreds", Xiao Bai said tightening her fist.

" Their good days are finally over starting from today because I am back.", Lie Ruge said her eyes breathing fire.

" Oh! I almost forgot to inform you about the most important thing, Your men who are undercover and working under Lie Feitian in the office had just disclosed a very vital information to me yesterday. They said that Lie Feitian is planning to hold an emergency press conference on Monday and I know that the only way for him to stop this nonsense is for you to personally show up there, although I am worried you won't be able to do so since you are still injured. I guess I will just have to come up with another fabulous excuse to convince the press about the fact that you are not dead since the international business trip excuse will not work on the press like it did with the board members", Xiao Bai said pressing her temple lightly in an attempt to come up with an excellent excuse that she will tell the press.

" You told them that I went on an intentional business trip? How did you come up with such a brilliant idea?", Lie Ruge aksed behaving as if she was shocked. She knew that her best friend could do anything as long as she sets her mind on it.

" I did not only come up with the business trip idea I even had to threaten those board members that were in Lie Feitian's support before they were finally convinced that you went for an intentional business trip. You should have seen me back then, I looked so cool and stunning", Xiao Bai said cheerfully.

" I'm so proud of you darling, I knew that I could always count on you anytime. For performing so perfectly well I want to reward you so tell me what you want. I will give you whatever you want", Lie Ruge said patting her hair once again.

" Wow! Really? I can choose whatever I want and you will not hesitate to give it to me?", Xiao Bai asked excitedly,  She could not believe her ears.

" Yes I will, so what do you want as a reward?", Lie Ruge asked, smiling when she saw how happy Xiao Bai was.

"I want that your latest 2020 Mercedes Benz that got shipped to you just two days before the incident that got you injured", Xiao Bai said elatedly.
