1230: You know President Feng is not simple.

You know President Feng is not simple.

In the darkness of some room, the struggling efforts of speaking could be heard. Although there was a yellow bulb suspended from the ceiling, the light coming from it was not enough to provide the whole room with enough brightness.  0

From a distance, one could see a woman sitting on the chair, tied up with their hands behind their back and legs down on the floor. And no matter how that person struggled, she could simply not set herself free. She was trying to move on the chair, trying her best, but the more she moved, the more she felt the knots of the ropes getting tighter on her. 

"That's futile. Why don't you save some of your energy, Lillian?" Suddenly a voice came from a distance as slowly the figure of Zhang Xiaotong appeared from the darkness. Her eyes looked coldly at her assistant, whom she had kept all tied up on the chair. It was just the last evening she had brought her here, but looking at her at the moment it felt like she had been kept here for weeks already.

As Zhang Xiaotong looked at her, her eyes squinted at her pale expression and dried lips. "Has she yet not eaten anything?" She asked roughly as one of her men from behind came to inform. 

"Miss, we have brought her the food but she is simply not having it. The moment we are opening her mouth she starts screaming. We fear if she continues to scream like that, we would get spotted by some passerby." 

Zhang Xiaotong's expression turned cold as she heard the man. Then waving him off, she walked back to her assistant to say, "Lillian, you have been the closest to me all these years and I really don't want to be harsh on you. Why are you still forcing me into it? Why are you not having your food? Do you know if you don't have it, you would die sooner and then you might not be able to attend my wedding with Brother FenFen? And I really want you to attend." 

Lillian stared up at her and tears rolled down her eyes. This was cruel indeed and never in her dreams did she expect Xiaotong to do this to her. She struggled to say something but since her lips were stitched with a strong tape, making her unable to even move her lips. 

Seeing her like that, Zhang Xiaotong suddenly straightened as with some disbelief in her eyes, she asked, "What? You want to say something?" Then turning to look at her men she ordered in an oppressive tone. "What are guys looking at? Quickly, open her lips. Can't you see she wants to speak to me? Don't forget she is my assistant at the end of the day." She said and the men were quick to take out the tape from the lips of the woman. 

Once freed, Lillian was the first one to look at the woman and ask, as if she was struggling to know the reason, "Xiaotong, why are you doing this to me? I thought apart from being boss and assistant, we were also friends. Then why have you brought me here like this? Haven't you agreed to visit the doctor with me? Then why have you tricked me here?" 

She asked and at her words like that, Zhang Xiaotong's expression turned colder than before. "Heh! You are asking me that, Lillian? Don't you know the answer already?" She asked as a maniacal wave surfaced her gaze when she looked at the woman on the chair. 

"Yes, we are friends and that's why these people are still taking care of you. I have asked them to look after you. But you have to stay here regardless. I can't let you out." 

Zhang Xiaotong said as the crazy intent deepened in her eyes. "Lillian, it wasn't me who tricked you, rather it has been you who tricked me. You were about to take me to the doctor. Heh! What-What would have happened after that? You all would have proved me crazy and put me on the medicine or sent me to the mental asylum. After that, there would have nothing left for me to cherish." 

As she said, Lillian shook her head in denial. Tears of pain rolled down her cheeks but more than the pain she was concerned for the girl. Now, looking at her, she was feeling that her condition had worsened more than she had thought. She needed instant medical help. But how could she now help her? She was here tied up and there seemed no way to escape. 

"Xiaotong, you have got me wrong? I was thinking of helping you. Why would I trick you? You need medical help. Come on, let's go to the hospital first. I have already explained to the doctor, he said after examining you, there could be chances of you getting treated by the medicines." 

Lillian said but before she could properly persuade the girl, Zhang Xiaotong laughed out hysterically, silencing the air frightenedly. "Haha … Lillian, you call me your friend, yet you are trying to prove me crazy. I am not crazy. I don't need a doctor. I don't need medicine. I only want Brother FenFen to be mine and soon, I will have him." 

She said and, in her gaze, there was a confidence that scared Lillian for some reason. She looked at her scared as she asked, "Xiaotong, did you plan something? What is it? Don't try something dangerous? You know President Feng is not simple. If you make a mistake, he won't forgive you. Then it would be more tough for you to get him." She said as panic struck her tone. 

Zhang Xiaotong looked at her like that and smiled. Then walking up to her, she cupped her cheeks and said with some love. "Lillian, you know only this loyalty of yours melts me every time. I know how much you care for me so I can't stay angry for long at you. Although I have kept you here like this, I am not angry at you. This is just to stop you from spoiling my plans." 

"Anyway, you don't have to worry, I have planned it really well. Nothing would happen to me and Brother FenFen. I will be fine with him; actually, I would be very happy with him. It's a matter of today. After today there would be no one between us. And we would be able to get together without any objection." She added to say as a hint of insanity flashed in her eyes. 

Lillian was scared, but she knew, tied up here like this, she couldn't do anything. Crying out in helplessness, she still asked, "Xiatong what have you planned? Don't dig a grave for yourself. Let me help you. I really want to help you." 

But the other woman was in her own world of excitement. Not hearing what her assistant was telling her, she simply said, "After today, Li Xue will be removed from our lives forever. She would get what she deserves." As she said, she took out her phone and dialed a number before asking over the call, "Have they prepared it well? I hope we don't get to hear disappointing news this time."
