Chapter 28: How could a woman be so frightening ?!
"So , if i can assassinate you without even lifting a finger , don't you think resignation is already a mercy. Look , such a good person i am !"Rong Xinghe continued with a grin.
She was just enjoying his pale reactions !
Rong Xinghe's tone suddenly became extremely domineering and intimidating ,
"Now , let's state the facts , Mr. Yi. Country X has a constitution but the military doesn't. Army never follows a set of rules. We soldiers follow only one rule : Safety .And in order to maintain that ,we can fight with people outside as well as inside the country .
" You won't believe when i say that , but i am capable to make even the Prime Minister and the President resign if they ever cross the security limits of Country X or they are found to have any ill-intentions for the citizens of the country.
"Then who the f*ck do you think you are ? The courage you have to look into my eyes and flaunt your experience in politics makes me sick. How dare you question the highest authority of this country ? "
Rong Xinghe especially raised her voice during the last part of the conversation ...
Until now , the man in front of her was so terrified by her words that he couldn't help but shiver like a patient .
He couldn't utter even a word.
All his arrogance had completely vanished till now.
Oh My God !
Just who was this woman !?
Her rage !
Her sharp tongue !
Her every word !
In his thirty years of experience in politics ,it was the first time that he was fearing someone so much !
How could a woman be so frightening at such young age !
She said , she would not even hold back if she ever needs to make Prime Minister or President resign for the country !
She obviously didn't cared about him or his position !
The worst part was, unlike the other military chief country X have had , she knew very well what she could and couldn't do !
She was not the type of person who would just go with the flow !
Instead ! she believed in fighting against the storms !
He had a gut feeling that he had wronged a woman he shouldn't have !
How naive he was to think that just because she looked pretty , she could be looked down upon !
Rong Xinghe looked at the shivering old man !
But she didn't felt even a bit of sympathy for him .
Such ministers were the reason for the battle that took place in country X twenty years ago.
They were just traitors to her !
But she was the highest authority of the country for a reason. She could control her anger and be calm , when no one could .
She took a deep breath and commanded ,
" You will do what i will tell you to do ! "
As soon as the minister heard her , he nodded his head vigorously .
Maybe he could still save his life and hold onto his position at the same time !
Rong Xinghe said ; " All the graduation courses will have total of 3 two hour sessions of the military from next semesters. Army needs human capital and a skilled one at that. Students need to have at least a basic idea about the army , or else , they would not even consider this option. Am i clear ? "
Yi Feng nodded again .
Now , that he thought about it , he could've listened to her earlier .
She had a very valid reason for this meeting , yet , he refused to even listen to her .
Who wouldn't be furious ?
How could anyone just walk in and challenge her authority .
But today , his arrogance ended up putting him in her bad books.
" Get out now ! You've already wasted my time so much ! And no word of what happened in this room today should be heard by me outside !" Rong Xinghe pointed her index finger threateningly towards the man .
He nodded in understanding and ran away as soon as he could !
............
Meanwhile , in the building of Xi Corps ;
" CEO Xi , the company's stocks are showing a steady growth ! Thanks to your amazing plan of letting the success to get the best of rival's skills. Welcome back , Sir ! "
The assistant Bei Ming was reporting to the young man looking at his phone in a daze. The girl in the photo he was looking at had a pure smile on her face .
She was the most beautiful thing happened to him in his entire life of 25 years .
Bei Ming kept on telling him the performance of Xi Corps in Country X in the past years , unknown that his words were unheard by a certain someone .
"Have you ever loved someone ? " Bei Ming was dumbstruck when he heard his boss ask him such an out-of-the-box question .
Love?
Did he just heard his cold and aloof boss asking about love ?
Wait a second !
His boss was actually zoned out when he was giving him a business update !
That had never happened before!
Was it actually connected to 'love' ?
Oh man !
Even if it was just a possibility , he had to help the boss to the fullest .After all , it was the first time his boss had taken an initiative in such matters .
He slowly digested the question and looked at his boss as he answered cautiously , "I had an arranged marriage , sir. So i never had the opportunity to impress a woman or plan a proposal. But i do love my wife now after four years of marriage. "
" Oh ! " , Xi Yuan frowned a little .
Was there no man around whom he could relate to ?
Then he thought about something , " How does it feel to have a family ? "
Bei Ming was stunned yet again !
What had happened to boss today ?
Love ?
Family ?
As in a family after marriage ?
Oh god ! Thank You for keeping me alive to see this day .
"Uhh....Sir , having a family is indeed an amazing feeling. Having a woman who you know , will support you no matter what pain or stress you are going through is the best thing a man could get. The warmth radiated by the family is indeed the best source of energy ..... "
A genuine smile appeared on the man's face .
