CHAPTER 86

Although Like Xiu tried to pretend she was not affected when the deal was about being called off, she was more worried than anyone.

At that moment, she did not know how she would approach her father on the topic or where she would even start.

She picked up her phone and called her assistant to ask about the situation.

"Have you heard any word from Mr Kang's secretary?"

"No ma. I am still waiting for a call or a message from them," Hao Zhi Ruo replied her.

"Okay. Send a message to them alright?"

"Right away ma."

"Good."

Li Xiu cut the call and concentrated on the slides in front of her. In the meantime, while she was waiting for positive news, she decided to be making herself more prepared.

–––––

Meanwhile, Mr Kang had everything arranged and soon Li Jing's contact and information was sitting atop his desk in his office.

"Time to talk with the brain of the Li Group and have her come work in my company."

Mr Kang took his phone and dialled her number then placed a call through to Li Jing.

Ring! Ring!

***

At Li Jing's office, she was once more busy with her work and trying to finish her needed quota for the day when her phone suddenly lit up and started ringing.

Peeling her eyes off the file in her hands, Li Jing reached for her phone and checked to see who the caller was.

'Strange number? Who could this be that is calling me with this number?' Li Jing thought.

Thanks to her contacts been saved to her Gmail and backed up, Li Jing got access to all her contacts and for this to be showing no name, meaning it was someone she didn't know or someone she knew was using a different line to call her.

At that moment, only two persons came to mind that was capable of doing that. Her sister, Li Xiu and her adopted mother, Ding Jiaying.

Recalling the incessant trouble those two always caused her, Li Jing turned pressed the power button and ignored the call.

The last thing she wanted was another word battle with that demonic sister of hers. She dropped her phone close to the documents and went back to work.

***

At the other end, Mr Kang who tried calling Li Jing once and did not get a response, frowned when the call ended.

'What? Why is she not picking her call?' he thought to himself and several thoughts started running through his mind.

He was a well-known businessman and several people would do anything to just to get him to answer their calls, let alone for him to call them.

Now, here he was trying to put a call across to a young girl who was not even up to him in terms of wealth or anything in life, and she wasn't answering her calls.

He shook his head at how life was. People always wanted him, his time and attention and here he was giving it to the one person who did not care about it nor even knew he was giving it.

He smiled to himself and decide to call her once more, pushing aside the negative thoughts and assuming she was busy or that her phone was far from her at that moment.

Ring! Ring!

Li Jing picked up her phone to take a little break and send a message to Yin Lifen when the call came as she was typing and she ended up answering it by mistake.

'Ohhoo… this number again! What does that mother and daughter duo want from me?' Li Jing grumbled in her mind. 'I better quickly end the call.'

As soon as her fingers came close to the red icon, she heard a very deep voice break out from the other end of the phone and paused.

'Who is that?' she thought and waited for the person to speak again so that she would be sure.

"Hello, Miss Li Jing?"

"Hello, please who am I unto?" Li Jing managed to ask after some seconds of hesitation.

"My name is Kang, Kang Xing," Mr Kang introduced himself.

'Kang, Kang, Kang.' Li Jing chanted the name like a sweet melody in her mind, trying to place where she had heard the name before.

0_0

"Wait a minute, you are Kang?"

"Yes."

"As in, Kang Xing, the Kang Xing?"

"Yes, that I am."

"Oh my goodness. I am so sorry."

"What are you apologizing for?" Mr Kang asked her.

"For missing your call earlier on."

"No, it is perfectly fine. It is understandable if you do not want to pick a call from an unknown number when a lot of fraudsters are out there these days."

"Yes." Li Jing nodded as though he could see her.

She was agreeing to his words now, but the truth was that she avoided the call for a different reason.

If it was a fraudster Li Jing wouldn't have the mind, but if it was that pest of a family, she would.

"Thank you, sir. Yes, how may I help you?"

"Oh, my manners. Sorry about that. I am calling in regards to the marketing slides you did for Li Group."

'And here comes trouble.'

"Yes, sir. Is there any problem?"

"No, not at all. I saw potential in your slide during the presentation at the company and although your sister had the wrong slide, I still could picture what you were trying to portray a bit."

'Oh, so that was why Li Xiu wanted me back. She might have presented the corrupted file and not have the original. Pff, serves her right.'

"Okay, thank you. So, please, why did you call exactly?"

"I like your person already. Straight to the point. I heard you left the company?"

"Yes, based on personal reasons." Li Jing informed him before he asked her why.

She already knew where the discussion was getting t and that question was one she did not want to answer.

"Okay. Umm, the slides, the original."

Before he could proceed, Li Jing interrupted him. "I am sorry sir."
