Chapter 111
Lu Zhaoyang frowned at Huo .
Of all things, you are just thinking about food at this crucial moment? Gosh…
"Could you please sit properly?"
His body almost collapsed on her . The request was apparently disregarded as Huo Yunting remained at his position, "Do you know what matters to a man the most when playing golf?" His brows raised .
" . . . "
Lu kept quiet because she knew what her man was going to say . She had seen the same stupid joke on social media before . She kept looked to the front, her head lifted still, yet his mouth reacher her ears, whispering in hot breath, "A . Hole . In . One . "
Lu Zhaoyang pushed him away .
Geez! I'm so going to alarm the police if he commits more of his sexual harassments!
Huo Yunting noticed the scarlet on her cheeks, as he fell back onto his chair, looking undisturbed .
"Regarding this project, we will be…" That was when Lu realized the project being presented by another company sounded really familiar to her . She turned to look at Huo Yunting who was now smiling at her playfully .
"W-what do we do now?"
It was certainly an awkward situation . The content of the presented proposal was highly similar to theirs, but with a way lower budget . If both Lu and Huo did nothing to their proposal, they would be humiliated, they surely would be .
What made it worse was the fact that they were representing Thunderbolt Corp . Disregarding the truth on who was the copycat in this case, Thunderbolt Corp . would lose its reputation .
Even if Thunderbolt Corp . managed to justify its proposal as the original, their reputation would remain tainted .
But, gosh! That was one hell of leaked info . It was hard to pinpoint the traitor at the moment because the proposal involved a vast number of members in their company .
Huo Yunting leisurely pulled out his phone and dialed right on the spot . He spoke to his man with a volume hidden within the voice of the host on the microphone . Lu could discern the order however .
"Check out this Emperor Corp . for me, right now!"
"I have not heard of this company before…" Muttered Lu as she started hypothesizing .

So far there are only a few characters who showed up at Thunderbolt Corp .
And … one who would leak the entire plan… Huang Dong?
It took Lu only a few seconds to aim her arrow at Huang Dong .
If The Emperor Corp . caught this opportunity, Thunderbolt Corp . would face a severe slump in the following quarters .
Wise people think alike . Huo Yunting was on the same end of the mental schemata as hers, although he was displeased .
Oh, your little bugs didn't work so you decided to openly challenge me? Are you not afraid of me at all? Huang Dong?
"Thank you . " The proposal successfully acquired approving applauses from the board as the representative went back to his seat .
"Last but not least, Thunderbolt Corp," announced the host .

The crowd was all looking at President Huo who gave a chilly smile, seemingly unperturbed of their awkwardly similar proposal, unlike his secretary who nearly wanted to run out of the hall immediately .
But it was that indifference of Huo Yunting that convinced her to stay . She was, after all, a nobody and therefore should not be the one in panic, especially when it would be more practical to wait for Huo Li's update .
It was as if The Emperor's proposal never existed when the president of Thunderbolt Corp . just briefed the similar proposal calmly .
The crowd was not calm, nevertheless . The noises grew, to an extent where even the host's loud plea for cooperation could not be heard .
"Isn't that the same proposal from Emperor?"
"I can't believe Thunderbolt has fallen . "
"Did this shameless president copy the proposal?"
"It's more expensive too, it's only braindead if they picked this ove-"
"What's with the noises? Are all of you done yet?" Said Huo profoundly . It was not a howl from him yet it killed the noises instantly .

He gestured the host to continue reading the proposal as he pursed his lips .
The reading was done . It was time for discussion among the panel judges to reach a conclusion .
Lu was feeling restless as her seat, the mumbles and doubtful gazes from the table were not helping .
That was when a mobile phone was shoved to her, it was Huo, urging, "Print all the documents inside, right now . "
Without hesitation she stormed out of the room .
It must be information about The Emperor's deeds!
It has to be!

Meanwhile, in a gorgeously furnished room, the whispering wind coming from the air conditioner filled the ambience . It was dead silent . It was dead cold too, yet among the seven men in there, a majority of them were sweating uncomfortably .
The atmosphere was tense . They exchanged gazes from one to another, their lips grooved in an uneasy manner, till one of them initiated, "The Emperor and Thunderbolt both proposed a rather similar idea, yet The Emperor has a much lower budget required . So I believe The Emperor has an upper hand in this . "
"I disagree . The Emperor might seem to have a lower budget compared to Thunderbolt, but I would not want to gamble on a bargain, especially when the actual expenditure would go much higher than what they have promised . "Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
