Lexi chuckled as she somehow could hear Avah Tong's curses and hateful remarks to her. Well, it was not that she necessarily need to meet the woman.
If anything, she didn't want to see Avah Tong anymore. However, since Lexi assumed that she was being watched from afar, having Avah Tong be caught seeing her would raise awareness of their enemies action.
After all, Avah Tong still knew a thing or two in the Lu Corporation — especially since she was once Dennis Lu's woman, she knew who are the people scheming with the said man. Therefore, this meeting would lead them to think twice of their action.
Since they couldn't just mindlessly make a move, that would lead her and Ethan Lu to be a step ahead of them. Despite its cons, its pros were worthy to take the gamble.
\"Who would have thought she would be useful in other ways too?\" Lexi chuckled as she shook her head. Well, not that she was to complain about it.
Just then, Nico Zhuang knocked from outside before he entered her office. The moment he opened the door, Lexi's faint chuckle assailed his ears.
Upon hearing it, his under eye twitched. Her chuckle just sounded so scheming that he had the urge to question if he was following a heroine or the villain. Regardless, that thought vanished just as it intruded his mind.
\"Madam, about the distribution to C Mall branch, we had a miscommunication with the person in-charge and the stocks are now in pending.\" As usual, Nico Zhuang bore his flat tone as he reported to the still chuckling Lexi. Knitting his brows, he prompted to ask questions but held himself back.
\"Alright, I'll go contact Aubrey about it.\" Lexi cleared her throat as she nodded her head in understanding.
\"Okay...\" Nico Zhuang nodded his head. Usually, he would leave after hearing her response, but for some reason, he stayed for a while and just stared at her.
\"What?\" Sensing his unwillingness to leave, Lexi glanced up at him and tilted her head to the side.
\"Nothing,\" Shaking his head sideways, Nico Zhuang shrugged and prepared to leave.
\"Ah! By the way, Avah Tong will drop by here. Inform the front desk to assist her in.\" Before he could leave the office, Lexi noted which made him turn around with a furrowed brow.
\"Avah Tong?\" Nico Zhuang frowned at the thought of that troublesome woman. Well, he was present at their encounter and wouldn't forget how delusional the woman was.
Therefore, although he said nothing back when Lexi kept her around AL's entertainment, he disagreed with her. But now, she was letting Avah Tong inside Beauty DR as well?
\"Mhmm,\" Lexi hummed a tune as the corner of her lips stretched into a meek smile. \"Don't worry, it's not a big deal. If you're worried, you meet her instead and report to me whatever she said. I only need her to be seen coming here, anyway.\" Lexi indifferently instructed.
To her, Nico Zhuang might be the composed type of person and appeared indifferent. But he's actually a worry wart. Hence, to reassure him, Lexi said as she didn't care if it would displeased Avah Tong, anyway.
\"Alright,\" Nodding, Nico Zhuang preferred her suggestions. In that case, whatever silly thoughts the said woman has, it wouldn't work on him. With that agreement, Nico Zhuang left her office.
\"I sometimes think they got this part of them from Ethan.\" As the door closed, Lexi chuckled while she shook her head sideways.
Be it Lyrick Jiang, Jarred Guo, or Nico Zhuang, these three musketeers were equally selfless it worried her. They usually put her and Ethan's safety first before themselves. Therefore, how could Lexi make them always worry?

After an hour drive, Avah Tong arrived at the establishment. Chinned up, she headed inside with poise. The click of her stilettos accompanied her every step, her waist motioned sideways along with it.
With a confident aura, Avah Tong caught a few attentions of the employees around. Since her face seemed new, others peered at her with interest — trying to find out if she was a celebrity as well.
After all, their big boss was the legendary Lexi Yang. Hence, few of their clients that appeared in this building were celebrities; Rika Song, for example.
\"I'm here to see Miss Yang.\" Ignoring the interested gazes that were set on her, Avah Tong leaned her arms on the front desk with a slight smile on her red tainted lips.
\"May I know your name please?\" Already trained by Lexi's beauty, the front desk clerk courteously smiled as another beauty didn't surprise her anymore.
\"Avah Tong.\" Upon stating her name, the employee looked up the schedule and expecting clients that has an appointment with Lexi. Avah Tong patiently let the lady do her job and looked around while she waits.
\"Hi Miss Chang!\" Not far away from the front desk, Avah Tong arched her brows as her gaze moved to the direction where she heard the voice.
After a second, Avah Tong saw a woman — a very familiar one — smiling as she greeted some employees back in the same light manner. Avah Tong's eyes slowly widened upon seeing Andy Chang, her whole body froze in a second.
\"Miss Tong, the CEO is still in a meeting. But, I can assist you to her office where you can wait for her.\" The clerk said yet, Avah Tong failed to hear her as her gaze was fixed at the smiling Andy Chang.
\"Miss Tong?\" Tilting her head to the side, the front desk lady softly called out to snap her from her daze but to no avail.
Andy Chang somehow felt a strange stare from somewhere hence, she turned her head to the direction. To her surprise, the person that was staring at her with an equal surprised front seemed so familiar. \"Big sis...?\"
\"Ugh,\" Avah Tong snapped back to reality the instant she had an eye contact with Andy Chang. Without further ado, she turned her back and took hurried strides out of the company.
\"Wait—!\" Seeing that Avah Tong was hastily leaving, Andy Chang called as she followed her figure. However, with their original distance, Andy Chang couldn't catch up on her.
Regardless, with a feeling of desperation, her gaze was fixed on Avah Tong's distant figure without concerning herself to her own steps. Thus, when Andy Chang bumped into another employee, she tripped and fell face front.
Fortunately, a petite yet strong arm wrapped around her, stopping her impending fall. \"Miss Chang, what are you doing?\" Nico Zhuang asked.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Lexi chuckled as she somehow could hear Avah Tong's curses and hateful remarks to her. Well, it was not that she necessarily need to meet the woman.
