Chapter 1008
The execution day became the talk of the people. People reacted differently to the execution, and Tang Shaoyang got what he wanted from the public execution. People now would think twice or even thrice before doing something stupid. Before the game, the death penalty was hardly imposed because the world would criticize the nation that did that. The same reason as the activist who went on demonstration, the human rights.While the public execution was over, the purge was not over. The Tarrior and TEIS underwent an overhaul. The people with status underwent reevaluation, making sure that the person deserved their current position. There was also an additional requirement to take a position, an oath.
Tang Shaoyang did not use the Oath Ceremony before because only three people could perform the oath ceremony. He did not want to give them more work than what they had, and he thought the contract was enough to scare them. However, the contract backfired on him as people with more guts dared to take the risk of breaching the contract.
Tang Shaoyang would not repeat the same mistake, so he added the requirement of the oath ceremony. On top of that, he added more conditions and also a test for someone who wanted to take a position. They formulated more requirements and tests, making them busy tackling the important part of the Dimensional Tower that had been a focus in the last few months.
The overhaul lasted for another month, reshuffling from top to bottom. Of course, Marshal Alton and the others from the Ortis Continent kept their position in the Tarrior. Not just the Tarrior, the TEIS also went through a huge overhaul with only Kang Jiayi, who kept his original position.
Kang Jiayi was still Commissioner General, and Zaneos was promoted to Deputy Commissioner General, below only Kang Jiayi under Tang Shaoyang\'s direct order. Of course, the demon swordsman managed to keep his other position as an instructor in TEIS. The demon loved his instructor job and took it seriously.
It was a long month, and this was the first time that Tang Shaoyang actively joined the meeting. Usually, he would get the final report and read it later. If he approved the report, the project would be implemented immediately. He could ask for a change if he did not agree to some part of the idea, and the people below him would work on it.
Tang Shaoyang leaned his back on his chair, massaging his forehead. He felt like thousands of words from the meeting floated around him even though he had his eyes closed. It made him dizzy to remember those words, giving him a hectic.
The main issue was that he still had more things to do. Tang Shaoyang had not clarified anything about Ava yet to the other girls. Ava\'s belly started to get bigger, and it became more obvious she was pregnant. Her husband might have noticed that the child was not his because the couple had not done the deed for a long time.
"Tell the girls to come to the private dining floor," Tang Shaoyang asked Origin to inform the women to come to the private floor where only people close to him could come. The twenty-fourth floor was where everyone usually had dinner together. He promised Zhang Mengyao to talk about this issue as soon as they solved the rebellion case.
Zhang Mengyao might already know what he wanted to say after Yu Shun\'s incident. The young spilled everything to Zhang Mengyao and Kang Xue, so it was no secret anymore.
"Hah…."
A sigh escaped from Tang Shaoyang\'s lips as he stood up from the chair. He headed toward the elevator to the twenty-fourth floor by himself. He made a commitment to tell all the girls about all his secrets, but it still made him nervous. The fear of his women\'s reactions and the most feared reaction was, what if they decided to leave him? That was what made him nervous.
"You made a mistake; now you have to confront your mistake and repent, face the consequence regardless of the result!" Tang Shaoyang kept muttering by himself alone. No one would be able to hear it except Origin.
Ding!
After the ring, the elevator door opened. Tang Shaoyang opened his eyes and walked out. His heartbeat raced up as he got closer to his destination. The dining room was to the left of the floor. He arrived right before a door in a few steps, the door to his private dining room.
Tang Shaoyang took a deep breath and released it in one go before opening the door. Almost everyone was already inside the room.
Zhang Mengyao, Kang Xue, Li Na, Liang Suyin, Elinova, Delia, Arina, Selena, Sylvia, and Aleesa. Everyone glanced toward the door, some of them smiling at him while the others had flat expressions. Tang Shaoyang could easily read the girls\' emotions, but he decided not to. He decided to confront them with honesty, not with a trick.
The tense atmosphere lingered as Tang Shaoyang walked to his seat. Kang Xue was to his left, and Zhang Mengyao was to his right, "Where\'s Ashley and Li Shuang?" He easily realized who was not present in the room.
"They should be on their way," Zhang Mengyao replied in a neutral tone.
"We will wait for them—" Tang Shaoyang did not finish his words as the door opened. Ashley and Li Shuang entered the room together. Ashley wore her silver armor, while Li Shuang had her suit. The two women smiled apologetically as they took the empty seats.
"Where do I start?" Tang Shaoyang spoke as soon as the two women were in their seats. He did not really know where to start.
It was a moment of awkward silence before Tang Shaoyang stood up. He then bowed his head and apologized, "I am sorry. I have been unfaithful to you all."
Apologizing and admitting his mistakes. It did not take that long for Tang Shaoyang to explain why he apologized. He told the truth that he had another woman aside from the girls in the room. In the end, he even told them that Ava, the former Elven Queen, was pregnant with his child. He bowed for the second time; this time, he bowed to Aleesa, Ava\'s sister.
Tang Shaoyang could see that Aleesa was shocked to hear her elder was pregnant with his child. The atmosphere inside the room became even tenser. There was no response from the girl, and Tang Shaoyang stood still, waiting for their reaction.
