BXBX NOVEL Chapter 185 Action

CHAPTER 185
Seated in one of the offices of the Sun company, Sun Yichen leaned his back against his chair as he let the swinging chair rock him away, letting his thoughts take over.
Although he had not met Andromeda since the day before Star Apparel\'s fashion show, he had kept watch on her, monitoring her activities.
And when he found out about the scandal and Liu Xueyi\'s help, he felt rage begin to welp up in him, an unusual feeling he was scarcely used to.
For one, he was not the one to pick up girls as his brother did. In the Sun family, he was one of the white sheep amongst the many black ones there.
It was no doubt everyone loved him.
But whenever he saw Andromeda\'s picture on social media, and Liu Xueyi\'s face popping up, his rage and jealousy was kindled.
He had known her briefly but every one of her actions and behaviour were loved by him.
Currently, his laptop remained lit, while his thumb danced on the touchpad.
Due to how deep in thought he was, Sun Yichen failed to notice when his door pushed open and someone walked into the office.
It was not until he felt a presence so close to his ear and a deep voice rang out into the depths of his eardrum, pulling him out of his trance that Sun Yichen got himself back.
"I see you have fallen for her. How romantic."
Sun Yichen jolted a bit from his seat, taking a quick turn around to see who had dared frighten him like that.
"Hahhaaaa…"
The annoying uproar of laughter escaping the intruder\'s lips forced his brows to draw close together as he stared daggers at him.
"Sun Jingyu!"
"Hahhaa, yup, what is it brother?" Sun Jingyu asked amidst the echoes of his laughter.
"You find my heart startling out of my chest funny?"
"No," he chuckled lightly before straightening himself up. "Yes. I mean, I find the fact that the person you are supposed to bring down, is who is taking your breath away."
"You are wrong," he corrected quickly.
"Am I?" Sun Jingyu retorted calmly while fixing his stern gaze on his brother.
Although Sun Yichen had never told anyone of his feelings for Andromeda… He had barely even confirmed it in his heart let alone, whisper it to anyone.
But seeing his brother speak that way, he knew it was either he made up an excuse or better still deny it and twist the words.
Either way, he could not afford to have his blabbermouth of a brother know, else his mother would be the next.
"I am waiting?" Sun Jingyu added, snapping his finger in front of Sun Yichen\'s face.
"I can see that, dummy. Anyways, why are you here?" he asked, evading the question.
"Answer me first bro. Do you like Andromeda Kai?"
"Why would you think so? This is business. I have her stalked," he half-lied.
"Hmm. Does that mean staring into space while her pictures are being displayed on your screen?"
"Come, did you barge into my office to interrogate me? If you do not like the job I am doing, then please find a way to get the partnership with Liu Corporation."
He shifted his gaze from the laptop to look at his brother and was shocked he kept his eyes fixed on Andromeda\'s picture.
Without uttering a word, Sun Yichen took a step forward and closed his laptop. At the same time, Sun Jingyu averted his gaze from the picture to his brother with his lips parted in disbelief.
"Hey, why did you do that?"
"Nothing. If I did not know better, I would say you were captivated by her beauty and now you have forgotten you have a girlfriend."
"Hey," Jingyu pointed his index finger at him. "Do not try to turn this one on me."
"I am not. Only preventing something. Now tell me, why are you here?"
"It is about the partnership with Liu Entertainment Industry. Father is growing impatient. I just decided to let you know so you prepare yourself."
"Hmm."
Even though the words he said made sense, Sun Yichen could not deny that something was fishy.
Usually, whenever he was with his stupid brother, he had his defense up, just in case.
"So whatever plans you have up your sleeve, even if it means seducing that Andromeda for her to do your bidding and then use her to get Liu Xueyi\'s favour, then do so fast."
"Thanks, but I won\'t be seducing her for such. I would get to her myself."
"Okay. I thought I should give you some advice but from the looks of things, you seem to have everything figured out already."
Placing his hand in his pocket, Sun Yichen took a step forward. "Aye. I would handle things."
"Good and if you need anything, do not hesitate to ask me," Sun Jingyu offered.
"No worries. Now, though, all I need from you is to stay out of any more trouble because cleaning up your mess can be so fucking annoying."
"Worry not. I would not trouble you. In fact, I would let all the troubles come to you and be a good brother."
The deadly chill in Sun Yichen\'s eyes when he heard his brother\'s indirect threat seemed to have done little to nothing in scaring Sun Jingyu.
"Fine. You do that."
Regardless, he was in no mood to play the word game with his brother.
More than anything, what he wanted or wished for was to see Andromeda.
Conversing with his brother indeed was not a waste as now, the thought of getting her to be his fueled up in his mind.
"Ciao," Sun Jingyu bade him as he took a turn, walking past his office desk till he was by the door.
"Do enjoy your investigation."
"Aye. Enjoy her troublesome sister too."
"Sure, will do."
He pulled open the door and closed it sharply. Once Sun Yichen was sure his brother was out of the way, he pleased a deep sigh before falling back on his chair in exhaustion.
More than anything he knew his brother wished to know how he felt about Andromeda but now he needed to be careful.

Following through with her plans, Andromeda made the first point of attack, social media.
She indeed gave Wu Bai that day to make a change but since he choose to ignore her, she decided to be wicked.
Although her initial plans was to make her first move a day before the fashion line, she decided to leave no room open for him to come up with something.
If she did not, only would they deliver a different kind of design, maybe of low quality but she won\'t have an opportunity to finish them.
She would repay him in his own coins... Place orders for materials in advance from the company and stock Liu Xueyi\'s warehouse with important materials, while leaving him with no last minute resource.
In the end, they would be forced to use her designs, giving her the best opportunity.
It did not take long for the news about Divine Pearl\'s fashion show to hit the news and many people ached to see what their comeback would be to gain and retain the top spot position of the city\'s top designer.
Andromeda crossed her arms under her chest while fixing her gaze on the television screen in front of her.
"Good. The higher your rise, the bigger your fall," she muttered under her breath, keeping her gaze stern and direct.
Her chest rose and fell with great effort as she held in the anger that was boiling inside of her.
Without wasting time, she turned to her side, still keeping her hands locked in her bossom as she dished out her orders.
Seated before a fleet of desks and computer screens where the I.T unit, in charge of the company\'s advert and other online problems.
A triumphant smile flashed before her eyes as she pried her lisp to speak.
"It is time. Release the news. Starlight Apparel\'s latest designs and addition to the Esteria naciente\'s clothing line. Orders are open. Limited edition, only. First 50 persons gets the deal."
Nodding their heads, they heeded her message and instantly went to work.
She had planned on flooding the market with the same designs as the ones Beatrice had stolen.
And being first to get them out, it would first of all shift some of the attention Wu Bai\'s company would get to Liu Xueyi\'s and when they find out, it would be out to change outfits and designs.
Everything was falling into place and her plans was going to move smoothly.
This was going to be a big fall and to make it grand while keeping herself protected, Andromeda ensured Lawyer Chang got her the restraining order, just in case.
Now everything and anything she needed to ensure she was protected without Liu Xueyi\'s help, she got it.
Letting her gaze sweep through the people busy making her plan a success, Andromeda lips tugged upwards, revealing a wry smile.
"Payback really is sweet."
