The Devil’s love

Outside the office.

"Ning? What are you doing here?" Meili inquired. ​​

Waving the blue file at her, Ning answered, "I just stepped out to get this file for grandpa."

"Grandpa is here?" When Ning nodded her head, Meili added, "He called me in the morning and took a few details about today's meeting. I thought he was just randomly asking you know, if I had known that he was really coming, I would've told you earlier."

"So does he do this often? I mean calling you and taking details?" Ning inquired.

Shrugging shoulders, Meili said, "Well not every time, just every now and then." Taking the blue file from Ning hand, she asked, "What file is this?"

"I don't know, it's grandpa's and—"

Cutting her off, Meili said, "Ning it's empty."

She frowned and took the file from Meili's hand. "What? Why would he ask me to get an empty file?"

"I think grandpa is hiding something, I mean, he sounded weird in the morning when I told him about your meeting with Mr Weilong," Meili informed.

Thinking for a while, Ning said, "Anyway, I'll just go and give this to him and if he wants to take over this project then he can. This will keep him busy and he will at least stop doing weird things like drinking jail water with his mischievous group."

"Alright, I'll get going now." After Meili left, Ning helplessly shook her head and made her way towards her office.

But as soon as she pushed the door, she stopped midway when she heard Grandpa Yang yell, "You will never be welcomed back in my life or in my family, the doors of my house are completely closed for you."

Standing by the door, Ning frowned and wondered what was exactly happening. Did they know each other already?

Just then, she widened her eyes in shock and gasped. She had finally recalled where she had seen Mr Weilong. He was the man from the photograph which she had seen in grandpa Yang's room a few weeks ago.

"Fa—" Weilong stopped midway when grandpa Yang gestured him to.

Turning towards the door, grandpa Yang said, "Ning come in."

When Ning pushed herself through the door, Grandpa Yang chuckled, "You know that I can sense your presence no matter where you are hiding right honey?"

"What? I wasn't hiding, I was trying to peek through your file but you caught me," Ning was trying very hard to act cool because she knew her grandpa could easily see through her.

Taking the file from her hand, Grandpa Yang said, "There is nothing important in here and I will be taking over this project starting today so if Mr Weilong has anything to discuss, he must look for me."

"But grandpa I can handle this, you don't have to take—"

Cutting her off, Grandpa Yang interjected, "I am not doing anything currently and so is Quan, I'll invite him over to help me out in this." Cupping her cheeks, he added, "You and Yichan are still in your honeymoon phase, you both need to spend some time together so you need to avoid stressy things at the moment."

When Ning hesitated, Grandpa Yang raised his brows, "Yang Ning, do you think that your grandpa is old and he cannot handle company matter anymore? Are you trying to call me an old man?"

"Of course not grandpa, you are the one who taught me everything so how can I even doubt your capabilities. I am just worried about your health." giving him a hug, Ning sighed, "I just don't want you to stress over anything or fall sick, you have already done more than enough for this company and our family and now all I want you to do is rest well."

Kissing the top of her head, he patted her back. "Oh you worry too much, I'll handle everything."

"Okay, if that is what you wanna do."

...

Mo corporation.

Yichan frowned and asked, "What? When did this happen?"

"Yesterday, our men were around but for some odd reason, they did not stop that man."Linhou explained.

"Pfft even the guards hate that filthy man, no wonder they did not save him. Look, they are laughing so hard." Jason chuckled.

"And why didn't the guards get involved?" Yichan inquired.

"They thought that Yang Luzin had taken money from that man so they didn't get involved and also because they hate him so—"

Cutting Linhou off, Yichan turned towards Jason and asked, "Do you have the footage?"

"Oh yes I do boss, I have been watching and laughing since yesterday," Jason excitedly got up and rushed towards Yichan.

Taking the tab from his hand, Yichan started playing the video but he paused it after a few seconds when he saw someone enter the mansion.

Staring at the screen for quite some time, Yichan asked, "Is he the man?" When Jason nodded his head, he sighed and massaged his forehead.

"Boss? Is something wrong?" Linhou inquired.

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Yichan instructed. "Increase the security around Yang Corporation and also appoint a few extra guards for your lady boss."

When Linhou nodded his head, he continued, "Jason, is there a cctv inside the mansion as well?"

"No but if you want to see the thrashing incident then I have a video, one of the guards recorded it for fun."

…..

Jiang mansion.

Dejected and tired, Weilong strolled into the mansion. The only chance he had to be close to his daughter was snatched away by his father and he felt awful about it. But no matter how hurt and sad he was, he knew that he had no right to complain.

His father's behaviour with him was completely understandable and he also knew that his daughter's reaction will be much more heart wrenching once she discovers the truth.

"So, how was it?" Grandpa Jiang asked.

Taking a deep breath, Weilong sat down beside him. "I am no longer allowed to see Ning."

"I had already figured this out when your father called me and almost killed me with his words," Grandpa Jiang chuckled.
