The words of Zheng Wenting were already quite suggestive. Just by his tone people would learn of his thoughts about being doubtful regarding CEO Jiang's sudden meeting with Li Xue.

Since the legal notice had already been sent in the name of the person, almost everyone present in the room knew that Li Xue had been blacklisted from their list and was demanded legally for compensation.

But the old CEO either was not an inexperienced one. Being involved in the world of media and reporters for more than half of his life, he knew well how to answer a question and how to turn such menial adversity in his own favour. 

Purposely mentioning the words of his retirement and Li Xue as one of his protégé, he has cleared all the suspicion in one stroke. As after his retirement, he would no longer be associated with the management and the agency. And it will be up to him, whom he decides to meet and whom he does not.

Hearing his words, quite murmurs got in the air. Li Xue was once a cherished name in Oriental Spark but after the accident 5 years back, that name was only condemned. Though no one talked openly about her in the agency because of the strict orders of CEO Jiang, still people were criticizing her among themselves for the huge blow of losses that the agency got after her scandal.

In between that soft murmurs, Zheng Wenting's brows jutted together. He knew what the ease in the words of the old man meant? Holding his aggression under check, he tried to come out all calm and sober.

"CEO Jiang, I know that you have a life out of your profession and you will soon be getting your retirement. But you are not yet retired."

The old CEO smiled before saying, "Of course I know. I am here to do my official paperwork for retirement. Just after this meeting, I will be retired both from my job position and also from my job's responsibility. And that's one of the reasons why my casual Lunch meeting with Li Xue is set after I complete my work and meeting here".

Zheng Wenting's fist got clenched under the table. He has always known how much this CEO has favoured Li Xue at times and still seeing him all the same for her, he was feeling guilty. Though he never wanted to accept his incapability as her boyfriend in the past, still seeing people standing by her side without asking any proof of her innocence, he just could not bring himself to ignore it.

Shouldn't he be the same to Li Xue too? Wouldn't it be better for once if he would have also chosen to believe in her words? Then maybe the woman, who once liked to stand by his side would not be so indifferent to him now. In the past, it did not bother him but for some reasons, now her aloofness was just keeping him at the edge.

Wen Sying who has been sitting beside him all this time also felt his anger. Though she did not know the reason behind it, she chose to believe it for something against Li Xue as the agitation only surfaced on the man's expression after the mention of Li Xue's name in the conversation.

In an attempt to soothe his aggression down, she moved her hands to place it over his and said, "Wenting that's fine. You don't have to be doubtful about CEO Jiang. Almost everyone in the industry knew in the past about his liking for Li Xue. It was under his support and guidance that Li Xue's career reached its peak. Of course, since she is getting back in her career again, she would want to meet him". Her voice came out all sweet and innocent.

As she completed her words her eyes went to look at the old CEO with some understanding. Looking at him with such nonchalant and innocent expression, she asked him to confirm her words, "Am I not right, CEO Jiang?"

The old man looked at her with the same calmness she was presenting to him and smiled, "Ms Wen has really got the things well and right, except for the one thing. It was not me who has made Li Xue's career shine under the banner of our agency rather it was her own capability to come out distinctive in between the others. Some stars are just born to shine just like her". He said.

Though his voice was all sober and polite, still the mild tone of insult was not kept hidden.

Understanding the tone all well, Wen Sying only felt her nerve aching. She wanted to retaliate but with that confident smile of the old man, she could not help from getting her confidence from wavering. "Seems like CEO Jiang still values Li Xue?"

"If a jewel stone loses its shine once, it never means that it has lost its value. Just a little effort and time of the right jeweller is enough to bring it back to its glory!" the old man easily replied and those words were more than enough to prick the woman's anxious nerves.

Her fingers curled into a ball, while her nails dug deep into her skin. Looking all aggrieved at Wenting, she wordlessly asked for help. Since one of her holds was onto his hands, his attention was already on her.

But he did not say anything to her, neither he reacted to any of the words they were talking about. Instead, he just turned around and said, "CEO Jiang, what made you so confident about your retirement? You have yet to sign the papers. And above that, you have yet to hear the offers that I am about to provide? I am sure after hearing you would not want to give up the job"

The old man raised his brows at his words for a second and asked with the laughter of disbelief, "An old man like me has such worth in a successful agency, I never knew that."

"Indeed, CEO Jiang has got the successful insights that we cannot ignore. The company will still need your guidance. So, I would request you to not leave yet. Just a few years more service will also be a big deal for us?" Zheng Wenting said with a professional smile as he leaned a little more forward to add, "And in those few years of your attribution, your perks and incentives will be doubled. Just stay support and guide the models under our banner".

The old CEO pressed his lips with some thought and almost everyone thought that he was contemplating to give in the situation. But the words that came next only made everyone confused around.

"My insight? From when has it become beneficial. In the last 5 years, nothing from my insight matched the reality".
