Chapter 40 Fear

As one of the best and biggest enterprises in Chenghai City, Midsummer Group was located in the most expensive area of the city center. The 10-story building represented the glory of this enterprise.

Xiaofeng, who wore a peaked cap, showed up in the industrial area not far away. He looked up at the high building with the brand of Midsummer and found that there were some sentries who were actually policemen standing around the building. His eyes turned cold.

Three months had passed and Xiaofeng didn’t expect that these policemen were still monitoring this place. Maybe they were sure that he would definitely come back.

Xiaofeng lowered the cap and immediately disappeared into the crowd.

In the chairman’s office which was on the top floor of the Midsummer Group building, Liu Qiangwei was reading the datasheet in her hands. She was wearing a white shirt and a brown skirt and there was a smile on her extremely beautiful face. She was visionary. With the popularity of Myth and Midsummer Group’s power in the game industry, it was an easy job to make progress in this game world.

She had put all her eggs in one basket and took over the Midsummer Group. Now, she was sure that she had made the right choice. Even though this group still had some problems, she was sure that she could fix them.

But then Liu Qiangwei thought of her own destiny. She clenched her fists and made up her mind.

She must be the only master of her life!

“Come in!”

Someone suddenly knocked on the door. Liu Qiangwei didn’t even look up and asked him to come in with a cold voice.

But the door was not pushed open for a while and she was puzzled and looked up. Maybe the secretary knocked on the wrong door.

“Are you Midsummer Rose?”

But at this moment, she suddenly heard a man’s voice behind her back.

Liu Qiangwei was shocked and the pen in her hand fell on the desk. There should only be herself in this office. She turned her head immediately and found that the window was open and a young man with a cap was sitting on the edge of the window and stared at her.

“Who are you? Why are you in my office?”

Liu Qiangwei was panicked. They were on the top floor and the man was sitting at the edge of the window. He would definitely lose his life if he was careless and fell from here!

She turned quietly and tried to stay calm. Then she fumbled for the internal line telephone on the desk.

“It’s no use trying to call. I’ve already ripped out the telephone wire and locked the door. Besides, this is also a sound-proof room, which means that no one will never know the things that will happen here.”

Xiaofeng raised his head and took off his cap. He looked cold and indifferent and walked to Liu Qiangwei. The floor-to-ceiling window behind him was open and the wind moved through his hair.

“What do you want? Wait… It’s you! You’re the priest in the game!”

Liu Qiangwei’s voice was still as cold as the lotus on the iceberg, but she failed to conceal her panic. She had already picked up the telephone and found that Xiaofeng was true. The telephone was useless now. Then she looked at Xiaofeng and recognized him.

In the game, Xiaofeng only changed his shape while his appearance remained the same. So it was easy for others to recognize him. Night Cooer also recognized him quickly in the real world.

“Well, it seems that I find the right one. You’re the chairman of the Midsummer Group and the president of the Midsummer Guild. So, who asked you to investigate me?”

Xiaofeng sat on the desk and asked Liu Qiangwei face to face. He tilted his legs and looked indifferent. Then he looked down at Liu Qiangwei who was sitting in the chair.

Midsummer Rose obviously weakened her beauty in the game. Although she was quite beautiful, sometimes she looked undistinguished because her face was inharmonious in the game. But the real Liu Qiangwei was even more attractive than Si Yejing and Xiaofeng was stunned by her radiant look.

She was fair-skinned and dark-haired. She had beautiful eyes, a petite nose, and cherry lips. She was extremely beautiful and had no flaws. She looked cold and unapproachable like the lotus on the iceberg. This was a perfect woman. She was in her early 20s and all men would feel ashamed when they saw her outstanding beauty.

The white shirt and brown skirt covered her slim figure. She was tall and slender, with an elegant neck, slim wrist, beautiful bust, and slender waist. Inside her brown skirt were her round buttocks and her straight and slender legs, which were as fair and exquisite as the best porcelain.

She was sitting in the high-back chair quietly and looked at Xiaofeng. Looking at her perfect face and unapproachable temperament, men would not dare to touch or hurt her. And they could only admire her from the distance.

But Xiaofeng was not one of them.

“My patience is limited and I don’t like nonsense. You’re not the one I want to find and I ask you once again. Who sends you to investigate me? Or who asks you to take over the Midsummer Group?”

Xiaofeng looked indifferent and it seemed that he didn’t care about anything. He was still calm and Liu Qiangwei’s beauty didn’t change his mind.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t care how you came in but please leave my office immediately, otherwise, I will call the police.”

Liu Qiangwei looked directly into Xiaofeng’s eyes and she managed to conceal her panic. This calm man made her feel dangerous but she still wanted to force him to leave.

“Well, it seems that you still don’t understand your present situation.”

Xiaofeng shook his head and suddenly leaned forward. His body was almost pressed against that of Liu Qiangwei. He could smell her elegant body fragrance but his expression remained the same. He reached out instantly and seized Liu Qiangwei by her snow-white neck.

“What are you doing! Ah! Let me go!”

Xiaofeng could feel her warm and creamy skin. Liu Qiangwei’s neck was slender and soft. It seemed that he could break it easily. But Xiaofeng was not enchanted by her perfect and beautiful face, instead, he gradually clenched his right hand, which was holding her neck.

Liu Qiangwei screamed and struggled. She tugged his right hand with her hands and tried to wrench herself from his grasp. But Xiaofeng’s palm was like the steel tongs, and her soft and weak white hand couldn’t move it at all.

Xiaofeng seized her by her throat harder with the right hand and slowly lifted her up!

Liu Qiangwei finally became terrified. She grabbed Xiaofeng’s wrist with both her hands and lifted her body up to relieve the suffocation caused by him. At the same time, because her feet couldn’t touch the ground, she was struggling and kicking Xiaofeng constantly.

But she only kicked off her high-heeled shoes and showed her soft and white feet. She couldn’t reduce his strength on her neck. Xiaofeng seized her on her neck and forced her to walk forward. Finally, they stood at the floor-to-ceiling window which had been opened by Xiaofeng.

“Three months ago, Xia Guangwei, the former chairman of the Midsummer Group, fell from here and became the smashed flesh. Do you know that?”

Xiaofeng’s eyes were calm. He grabbed her by the throat and his right hand stuck out of the window. Now, Liu Qiangwei was hanging out of the 10-story building!

“It’s you…You killed him…”

Both the suffocation in her throat and the sound of the wind outside the tall building made her creamy white face gradually became purple. She dared not to struggle again. She was afraid that Xiaofeng might suddenly let go, so she could only hold his hand tightly with both her hands and lift her body up to get a chance to breathe.

After hearing what Xiaofeng had said, Liu Qiangwei’s beautiful eyes widened and she said with great difficulty.

She felt more suffocated. She was seized by Xiaofeng by her neck, she could hear the sound of the wind and she could see the people on the ground, which were as small as the ants. She became weaker and didn’t have the strength to lift herself up.

Suffocation, lack of oxygen and the fear that she might be thrown off from the 10-story building made her feel desperate. The fear of death gradually covered her. She started to lose her consciousness but still held Xiaofeng’s arms because this was her only support at this moment.

Am I gonna be killed? She might be strangled, or she might be thrown off this tall building, which also happened to the former chairman of the Midsummer Group…

Grey shadows started to appear in her eyes and her beautiful face also became increasingly more purple. Maybe due to the fear of death, she even started to think about how she would be killed.

But Liu Qiangwei started to struggle again at this moment. No, she couldn’t die! She couldn’t be killed like this!

There were various emotions in her eyes, including fear and despair. At last, she looked at this calm man who was gonna kill her appealingly…

The gurgling sound.

A cup of cold water was splashed on her face and Liu Qiangwei woke up from a coma.

Liu Qiangwei suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and looked around. It took her one minute to regain consciousness and understood her present situation.

She was still alive!

At this moment, Liu Qiangwei curled up in the corner of the office. Her beautiful face was covered with water and a strand of wet and black hair lay on her neck, which made her looked more charming.

Xiaofeng was sitting at the same high-back chair and looked down at her.

“Thank you…”

Liu Qiangwei opened her pink lips and thanked Xiaofeng. But she didn’t know why she wanted to thank this man who nearly killed her.

At this moment, Liu Qiangwei was not cold or unapproachable at all. She held her arms across her chest and bent her legs. She curled up and looked at Xiaofeng with a soft and helpless look.

“What do you want to know? I can tell you everything…”

“I don’t like to repeat the questions I’ve already asked. If you can’t remember them, I can help you.”

Xiaofeng crossed his legs and looked down at Liu Qiangwei. He was calm and Liu Qiangwei couldn’t see any emotions on his face. But she was scared.

“No… I can remember by myself!”

Liu Qiangwei looked helplessly at Xiaofeng. He was calm but she had nearly been killed by him and was afraid of this man.

Liu Qiangwei thought for a while and said, “I didn’t ask anyone to investigate you… Wait! I only asked a man to investigate the only daughter of the former chairman of the Midsummer Group and her name was Xia Ling. I didn’t know you until today. There might be some mistakes.”

Xiaofeng frowned. Liu Qiangwei said immediately and was afraid that Xiaofeng didn’t believe in her.

Xiaofeng frowned and thought that Liu Qiangwei didn’t dare to lie to him at this moment. So he continued to ask, “Why do you want to investigate Xia Ling?”

“Three months ago, Xia Guangwei, the former chairman of the Midsummer Group, jumped from the building and died…” Liu Qiangwei looked at him carefully and continued to say, “They said that it was only an accident, but I must know more information since I’ve already taken over the Midsummer Group… All his family is within the scope of my investigation…”

“Do you any relationship with Xia Guangwei? Who asked you to take over the Midsummer Group?”

“I didn’t know him until I bought his company… I bought the shares from his wife and no one asked me to do this. This is my own idea…”

Liu Qiangwei held her body harder. After the fear of death dissipated, she started to feel cold because Xiaofeng had splashed cold water on her body.

But another and the more important reason was that she had known that Xiaofeng was the man who had killed Xia Guangwei…
