CHAPTER 832: Imposter

"Umm, madam, are you alright?" The lady halted in her step, her eyebrow slightly raised as her lips tugged downward. "Why? Do I look unwell?"

"N-No. It's not that it is just…"

"I'm stressed already this morning. I just wish to admire something to get my mind off things before going to face a series of meetings. Or do you think all I do around in the company is child's play?"

She dipped her head apologetically. She had no plan of angering her. However, her actions have been suspicious since. "Here we are."

"Good. Now, please hurry and serve me some cookies and cold apple juice. I will snack a bit before hurrying back," she instructed the girl with a flick of her wrist. "Yes, Madam."

As soon as she hurried out of the kitchen, the young lady made her way back to the living room in search of her phone when she b.u.mped into the butler. "Oh, sir."

"Why are you in a hurry?" the older-looking man asked, his eyes raking over her,, trying to ascertain what was going on. "Umm… nothing. Madam returned and she is asking for snacks." The butler's brows creased, his eyes squinting at the young maid. "We gave the last to Mr. Ye yesterday night. I need to call to place an order while I try to make…"

Still finding it hard to believe that the same woman whom he knew had a very important meeting would be here asking for a snack, the butler questioned her, cutting in. "Wait, you said what? She's here?"

"Yes. Here, in the kitchen," the maid said, pointing in the direction she was coming from. "Madam Li Jing is inside."

"Hmm."

"Sir, if you think I am lying, you can go check yourself."

"No. There would be no need for that, Ming Xi. Perhaps she is really in need of homemade snacks. Go tend to her. I'll handle the rest."

She took a bow and excused herself., heading somewhere else to place the order in hopes of not annoying her mistress. 'Hmm… I recall the Yong Master instructing that the Lady be woken up on time and given her breakfast since they'd be having a long day at work with no break to spare from the morning.'

His fingers tapped away lazily on his chin but no sooner had he done than the sound of the telephone's ringing dragged him out of his train of thoughts. "I…"

Ding! Ding!

He crossed the distance from where he was to answer the machine. As soon as he placed it on his ear while keeping on a professional smile, his smile faded, leaving behind a hollow look in his eyes. "Butler Wu! Something is wrong. There are two madams."

"What?"

Ding! Dong!

His eyes went wide as he stared at the door. His mind and ears must be playing tricks on him. Ding Dong!

At the second sound, he dropped the telephone and hurried for the door. One…

Two…

Three.

Turning the doork.n.o.b, he pulled the door open only to be greeted by the shock he'd never thought he'd witness.

"What is going on here?! How come I was locked outside my house?!"

**Flashback**

Glancing down at her watch, Li Jing shook her head when she raised it, her eyes locking with Yin Lifen.

"Time's not on our side, Fen-Fen. I can't believe I forgot the doc.u.ment. I…" she bit her lip, her mind racing to the moment when she placed the doc.u.ment on the bed intending to get her makeup done and left right after. Turning her head to glance to the side, her gaze locked with the tag on the door, ''Conference room' and then back at her well-dressed best friend.

"I understand. How about we ask your butler or one of the maids to go get it for you?" Yin Lifen suggested. It was an important doc.u.ment that they needed for their current meeting. Thanks to the delay from their partners, they still had 20 minutes till the new scheduled time for the meeting. More than anything Li Jing wished to rush home and get it done. As Yin Lifen suggested, she could ask her driver to pick them up or have them ride to the company and bring those files for her but she was sceptical about it all.

"No. I'll go," Li Jing announced, earning a scowl from her friend. "No. You are needed here as CEO. I cannot have you outside running about just to get a doc.u.ment. Besides, if you leave it will take more time before you return. Have the butler send it over."

She understood what Yin Lifen was on about but at the same time, she had a gut feeling not to trust that much and do 9t herself.

"Or what, you do not trust your staff?"

Li Jing's brows lowered. She had been caught. Although a part of her trusted them. Right now, however, something p.r.i.c.ked her heart. "I do but I just need to see this through. It is an important doc.u.ment. I wouldn't leave it in anyone's hands. Eyes are everywhere. Especially Chairman Zhang. I cannot afford such a big risk to my business."

With that, she did not pay much attention to Yin Lifen and hurried off. "Stall for me or start and represent me. Thanks!" Li Jing yelled just before the elevator closed.

After taking the high road, and driving swiftly, she arrived at the mansion but the gatekeeper refused to open the gates for her car.

Li Jing horned thrice but got no response. It wasn't until the gatekeeper walked outside, his eyes narrowed briefly while checking the car. Suddenly they widened and peered at her in realization. "Open already I am late!" Li Jing hollowed, not bothering with what was going on with him.

"But madam, you just retur…"

"Open the gate!" Every word was called out with so much anger and boldness sending a chill down his spine. Forgetting his initial plan of leaving her outside, he cast a glance at the car parked close to the fence just a little bit far from the gate and then back at her. But the moment his gaze met Li Jing, he regretted the delay. Her murderous intent s.h.i.+mmered in those eyes of hers and he knew this was no time for jokes. In that rage, Li Jing drove into the compound, parked and rushed towards the door, ringing the doorbell.

At once, not wanting to let this mistake escalate, the gatekeeper placed a call to the butler quickly before sending one to the top guard and Ye Cheng. **Flashback Ends**

"Butler Huangfu how come I was locked outside my house?!"

"M-Ma…"

"Ma what?"

"Madam, it's you."

The wrinkle lines on her forehead and tight lips did not go unnoticed by the Butler who quickly tried to correct his errors before anything else happened.

"Who else were you expecting I would be?" Li Jing inquired, crossing her arms in front of her chest while tapping her right foot against the floor.

"I… uh…" At this point, Butler Huangfu did not know exactly what to explain given that he did not see her go in previously. What if the maid Ming Xi was making a mistake?

"Oh Butler Huangfu, I have placed the order for Madam Li and…" she halted in her steps, her eyes widening when they locked gaze with Li Jing standing outside the door, as her phone fell from her hand.

"M-My Lady."
