Chapter 359 Couldn't Resist The Urge

CHAPTER 359
Cameras continued to click as Bai Renxiang walked out of the conference hall. There were so many reporters, journalists and cameramen waiting outside. They asked dozens of questions and tried to get close to her for an answer but failed.
The sturdy and bulky men did not bulge to let them through. They could only raise their voices to ask questions in hopes that the CEO would answer them.
"Please, you should all go back now. Our CEO will not be answering any more questions. Thank you for coming. Do have a nice day," Song Yan said before following the rest of her colleagues away from the 10th floor.

In Bai Renxiang's office.
"Boss, you totally rocked the press conference," Jinhai said.
"Yeah. I mean, with the way you dished out the answers and all... I loved it," Xia Xinyi praised.
"Thank you. I was able to you'll it off because of the faith you all out in me. I had to do my best," Bai Renxiang said.
"Oh, don't sweat it, boss. You had it in you already. Even when those reporters were trying to make the whole issue seem intentional," Charlie added.
"Yeah. I find them too suspicious. What media company are they from?" Bai Renxiang asked Xia Xinyi.
"They are from We Know media company," Xia Xinyi reported.
"Hmph! We know my foot," Song Yan scoffed.
"Assistant Charlie, can I count on you to help me investigate them? They seem to be hell-bent on their claims that Jiang Corporation is guilty," she said.
"Although, I know the not everyone would be on our side," she added.
"Even everyone would not be on our side, theirs was a bit over the top," Zhang Fei spoke.
"I agree with Zhang Fei. It was as if they did a grudge against us," Jinhai said.
"Or the person who had them off is the one with the grudge," Bai Renxiang thought out loud.
"Boss, do you mean..." Xia Xinyi trailed off.
"It is too much to ignore. Also, my guts keep pushing this theory into my head," Bai Renxiang nodded.
"Alright boss. You can count on me," Charlie gave his words.
"Thank you. Since the most important part of this is cleared, we should monitor the falling or rather growth of our stocks now," Bai Renxiang suggested.
"Yes boss," Xia Xinyi nodded.
"Song Yan, keep an eye on the internet. Tell me about the opinions and thoughts of the netizens before the end of the day."
"Got it, boss."
"Zhang Fei, you and your team did well. Tell the security team to tighten the security in the factory. We don't want this to repeat itself now, do we?"
"Of course not, boss."
"Very well then. You all have done exceptionally well today. If all goes well, we would celebrate ate. But for now, we need to be on our toes. Get back to work now, people."
"Thank you, boss," they said in unison.
Bai Renxiang gave them an approving smile befriend they took their bow and filed out of her office. Once she was left alone, Bai Renxiang let out the breath she had been holding in since.
She took off her suit jacket baring her shoulders in the black sleeveless inner shirt she wore. Her heels were next, letting her small feet make contact with the cold tiled floor of her office.
"Hah! That was tough. But you did well Bai Renxiang. You deserve a pat on your shoulder," she said to herself.
Standing from her chair, she moved to the small refrigerator and took out a chilled yoghurt from it. Uncapping it, she poured some content into the glass cup she was holding and gulped it down in one go.
"Hah! That's it. Calming, refreshing and satisfying."
"Then I should send more of those to you from now on, my love."
Bai Renxiang froze in where she stood. Then in the blink of an eye, she whipped her head in the direction of that voice. Because of how fast she turned her head, her hair flipped into her face.
"Ah!"
Bai Renxiang tried to use her occupied hands to remove the few strands of her hair that stuck to her sweaty forehead and face.
"Silly go. Hold on let me help you," Li Fengjin walked to where she stood in long strides.
"There. What a gorgeous face," he murmured as he gently brushed the strands of her hair away from her face.
"Jin, what are you doing here? You scared me," Bak Renxiang asked.
"Hahaha!" He chuckled.
"What's so funny? Do I have something on my face?" She frowned while asking.
"You do have something on your face though," he said.
"Huh? Really? Where?"
There was the stain of the yoghurt she drank just above her lips. She looked cute just like a child. And her ignorance made it funny and enticing.
"Here," Li Fengjin leaned down and kissed her.
Bai Renxiang was confused but she soon lost herself in his gentle, calming kiss. His hand wrapped around her waist while the other caressed her cheek. Bai Renxiang even unconsciously sighed into the kiss.
"Now, it's gone," Li Fengjin said after they broke from the kiss.
He could make out that the woman in his arms was confused. Her brows were now furrowed.
"What was on my face? You just took advantage of the fact that my hands are full," she pouted.
"I did not take advantage. You had yoghurt smeared above your lips. I helped you. Also, I don't see the need to take advantage of what's already mine. Don't you agree?" He teasingly asked.
"Step away from me before I smash this glass cup on your head."
"Hahaha. I'll take that, Mrs Li," he took the cup and yoghurt from her hands.
"Mrs Li? We are not married yet," she blushed.
"But we will soon be," he hugged her.
"When and why did you come into my office?"
"I couldn't resist the urge to be with you. So I rushed here and sneakily got in before you came back from the press conference."
