Chapter 21: The Interview

Long Fei tugged at his collar as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. His gaze stopped at necktie and a deep frown appeared on his face.

With one quick move, Long Fei took off the necktie around his neck and tossed it behind his shoulder.

The black necktie flew and hit Fu Xing right on his face. He quickly grabbed the necktie before it could fall on the floor. As he looked at his boss again, Fu Xing saw that Long Fei continued to browse through the neckties.

The corner of his lips twitched. Fu Xing did not know what was going on.

Earlier this morning, his boss had called and asked him to call some people that could help him with his clothes.

The suits were all almost the same style but Long Fei spent almost an hour choosing them.

Just when Fu Xing had thought that his boss was done with choosing his outfit, his boss began to look at the necktie and he was having difficulties choosing which one did he like best.

Fu Xing watched as his boss picked up a few neckties and threw them over his shoulders. The corner of his lips began to twitch.

His boss had never acted like this before.

If he did not know his boss any better, Fu Xing would think that his boss was being this picky as he was going on a date.

Someone knocked on the door and the door was pushed open before anyone would say a word.

Fu Xing did not have to look up to know that the person was Long Yu Heng. A breath of relief escaped him. Now that Long Yu Heng was around, Fu Xing could be more at ease.

Long Yu Heng raised his hand and Fu Xing took that as his signal to leave.

"Yu Heng," Long Fei turned around with an emerald necktie on his hand. "What do you think about this?"

A breath of frustration escaped him. Long Yu Heng looked around the room and started to massage his head when he saw the number of neckties on the floor. After a while, he picked up a dark blue necktie and handed it to his cousin.

"I think this one looks better on you," Long Yu Heng said. "I think this color suits you the best."

Long Fei stared at the necktie and thought that his cousin's words make sense. He picked up the tie from Long Yu Heng, tie it around his neck, and stared at his reflection again.

He had to agree that Long Yu Heng was right. The color really does make him look better.

Seeing that his cousin was no longer tossing the neckties around, Long Yu Heng finally heaved in relief. "You are only going to be interviewed by that small magazine. Do you really have to be this meticulous?"

Long Fei pursed his lips into a thin line. He actually did not care about the interview. However, when he thought about meeting that woman later, Long Fei grew anxious. He thought that he should look his best when he sees her today.

Although he had previously run into Su Ruan a few times, Long Fei thought that he should make himself look good in front of her.

He had often told himself that he would not force Su Ruan to accept him. However, each time that he tried to keep himself away, Long Fei found that he could not resist wanting to get close to Su Ruan.

Perhaps, this was his curse.

"You don't understand," Long Fei muttered under his breath. Once he was satisfied with the way he dressed, Long Fei finally looked at his wristwatch.

A light flashed in his eyes as he realized the time, "I'm going to be late. We have to go now."

Long Yu Heng nodded.

After giving a few reminders to his assistant, Fu Xing, Long Fei finally left the office. Long Yu Heng took the task as the driver and the two of them headed to the company.

When they arrived, a bunch of the company's higher-ups was already waiting for them in the lobby.

Once they heard that the President of the Blue Media Group had arrived, the higher-ups led by the president of the company, lined up, wanting to welcome this big shot's presence in the company.

Yan Xi stood beside Director Gao Leng with a big smile on her face. Seeing the handsome face of President Long Fei made her heartbeat accelerate.

From the corner of her eyes, Yan Xi could see his colleagues' jealous gaze directed at her.

Thinking that she was going to be interviewing this hotshot made her excited. It was a rare chance for someone like her to be meeting an influential person like President Long Fei. Yan Xi was planning to take this chance to please this man.

Her gaze shifted to Director Gao Leng.

It was Gao Leng who had let her have this opportunity to meet someone like President Long Fei. However, if she was to compare the two men, of course, she would choose President Long Fei. The moment that man showed his interest in her, Yan Xi would leave Gao Leng's side without hesitation.

The president of the company exchanged a few words with Long Fei. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Yan Xi.

Seeing her boss's gaze, Yan Xi's eyes lit up. With her boss's encouragement, Yan Xi walked over to President Long Fei with a friendly smile on her face.

Long Fei's expression changed when he saw this stranger. However, Yan Xi did not seem to notice the man's change of mood.

"Hello President Long, welcome to our company. Thank you for agreeing to this interview," Yan Xi spoke. She stretched her hand for a handshake. However, Long Fei merely glance at her hand before he turned to the president of the company again.

Director Gao Leng cleared his throat to get their attention. "President Long, let me introduce you. This is Miss Yan Xi. She will be interviewing you today."

The air around the room turned gloomy and oppressive but none of them spoke a word.

Long Fei looked at the woman in front of him with a dark look on his face. "Yu Heng, what happened?"

Long Yu Heng looked around and frowned. His gaze finally stopped at the familiar woman across him. "Editor Ji, what happened? We have agreed. The person who will be interviewing President Long Fei is Miss Su Ruan."

Gao Leng let out an anxious laugh. "I'm sorry President Long, but Miss Su will not be interviewing you today. She made a mistake and was fired yesterday."

"She's what?" Long Fei's expression darkened.

Long Yu Heng sucked in a deep breath. His eyes widened.. He was aware that if he did not stop Long Fei, something bad was going to happen.
