Playboy CEO Has a Baby

CHAPTER 224

In the CEO's office.

Bai Renxiang was staring down at the city through the floor to ceiling window as she listened to her grandfather while he spoke.

"When did you find out about this?" He asked after a few words.

"I found out three days ago," she answered.

"Was that not before I called you?" Ge asked yet again.

"Tea, grandpa. It was."

"Then, why did you not think to tell me? Or have you forgotten what you said? If anything happens in the company, you would tell me and u would do everything to help you. That was the promise we made," he said in a low tone.

"I know grandfather. I remember it well. My conscience pricked me when I lied. But I still do not regret it," she turned to face him fully.

"But keeping me in the dark about something like that was not necessary. I would have helped, you know. Also, I was once the CEO. So, at least, you should have thought of it," old man Jiang said.

"I know, old man. I know that very well. But I do not want to keep relying on you. I want to be able to do things by myself," she slowly walked towards the couch he was sitting on.

"I want to be seen as a capable leader because that u a what I am. I do not want to be seen as a... figurehead on the seat of the big boss. That is the reason I chose not to tell you. I can handle things well," she said the last part softly as she sat beside her old man.

"Sigh. You have started calling me an old man now, huh?" He glared at her.

"Well, are you not?"

"Whatever. But what you did back at the meeting room was awesome. It made me surprised that you had that kind side to you. I was also proud because I saw a great person in action," he praised get and gave her a soft pat on her cheek.

"The company is indeed in good hands. I never choose wrongly," he added making them laugh.

"In all situations, you never fail to praise yourself with raised head," Bai Renxiang pointed out.

"Of course, I will. That way, no one can look down on me. Besides, look at who is talking. At the meeting room, you were like... 'Bow down to your Queen and beware of my wrath," he said with puffed up chest and both arms raised in pride.

"Really? I was like that?" Bai Renxiang asked with wide eyes.

"Uh-huh. I can't forget that expression and feeling you gave off," he said as he thought back to the meeting.

**Flashback**

"Gentlemen, please see this man out of the company. His services are no longer required in Jiang's Corporation," she said. Then she turned to and stared him straight in the eye.

"I do not want to see anything concerning him in MY company.... Ever again," she said.

That was a sound warning. She had made her point clear that she was boss and there would be dire consequences if he appears in the company after today.

Jiang Bojing's first clenched tightly to the extent that his knuckles had turned white. The two bulky guards matched up to him.

"Sir, please obediently follow us now," one of the guards said as they held his both hands in a firm grip.

"Let go of me. I will see myself out. Mind you, you are going to regret what you have done. You will regret it because you will never find a vice president like me," he said through gritted teeth.

"You are right. I will never find a vice president like you. You are too much of a hassle and I do not want a money sucker as my vice. Thanks for your good wishes, Mr Jiang," she tilted her head with a smile.

p "Take him away from my sight," she said with a flick of her hands.

When Jiang Bojing and the two guards left, it was like a cloud of silence fell on them. As usual, it was the clicking of her heels that could be heard. She stood by her chair as her gaze swept through the faces of every person in the room.

"Sigh. Let what happened to Mr Jiang Bojing be an example or rather, a guide to you. I would hesitate to do the same or even worse once something like this, repeats itself. Understood?"

"Yes, boss," they chorused.

"Good. I am glad we are on the same page. Meeting adjourned."

**Flashback Ends**

"I do not care about how domineering I may have sounded. If it is what I need to do you make any rat think twice before crossing me, then, I will adapt to the new method," Bai Renxiang said with a strong resolve.

"Hmm. That is my granddaughter. You have not only proven to me but everyone that you are indeed a capable leader and a Jiang," Old man Jiang said and nodded his head.

"At least, have narrowed down my enemies by taking one down. I still have that snake, Mr Quan and the other one. What is his name? Uhm... Mr Fan," she said.

"Do not worry. We can face this together. I also have faith in you and I will support whatever decision you make."

"Thanks, grandpa," she drew closer to him for a hug. "Oh! That reminds me. Where are my souvenirs?" She asked with brightly lit eyes like that of a kid expecting candy.

"Haha. You can't forget about that, huh? You did not even welcome me properly today," he sulked.

"I would have if someone was not itching for a meeting," she shot him a meaningful glance.

"Fine. You won. The souvenirs are in the mansion. You can drop by this weekend to take them. Make sure to bring my great-grandson when you come over."

"Sure, I will. Thank you, grandpa, and welcome back from your vacation."
