When the stock market opened in the morning, the Yu Group was as stable as ever. However, once the scandal broke out, the stock price began to fluctuate and decline.

Yu Beiting naturally also saw the "scandalous video."

The internal phone on the desk rang. It was the secretary calling.

"President, Assistant Shen Qinghuan from the Medical R&D Department is here to see you."

"No." Yu Beiting hung up the phone.

Lin Yi stood in front of him, not daring to breathe.

Don’t be fooled by the president’s expressionless face. In fact, I don’t know how to be angry.

The air pressure in the entire office was terribly low.

Yu Beiting opened the video again on his computer.

Watching the woman chase after the man without hesitation and take him away, the mouse in Yu Beiting's hand cracked.

Lin Yi was shocked and dared not say a word.

There was a commotion outside.

Lin Yi hurriedly turned around and went out to check.

Shen Qinghuan frowned: "I said, I have something important to talk to President Yu about!"

The secretary stopped her outside.

"The president is not available to see you now. Please come back when he is free."

Lin Yi came out and saw that it was Shen Qinghuan who was trying to force his way in, so he hurried forward.

"Ms. Shen, the president..."

"If he is busy, I can wait until he is done. Lin Yi, I must see Yu Beiting today." Shen Qinghuan did not give Lin Yi a chance to speak, and his attitude was very firm.

Her resolute aura made Lin Yi see some of the shadow of the president.

Lin Yi hesitated for a moment: "I'll go ask for you."

"good."

Shen Qinghuan stood aside and waited obediently.

Lin Yi entered the office: "President, Miss Shen..."

Before he could finish his words, Yu Beiting's eyes, as cold as a blade, swept over him. Lin Yi trembled all over and hurried out.

"Miss Shen, I'm sorry."

Hearing this answer, Shen Qinghuan clenched his hands.

Is Yu Beiting deliberately avoiding seeing her?

"Thanks."

Shen Qinghuan stood aside and didn't leave.

There was only one entrance and exit to the General Manager's Office, and she didn't believe she couldn't wait for him.

Seeing this, the secretary looked at Lin Yi for help.

Lin Yi shook his head at her and didn't care.

Everyone was busy with their own things, and Shen Qinghuan stood there as a gatekeeper, oblivious to the surroundings. The senior executives who came to report on their work would always take a second look at him curiously when they passed by.

They walked into the president's office with high spirits, and then walked out with their heads hung down, being scolded.

It was evening and it was getting dark outside. Yu Beiting hadn't left the office all afternoon.

Colleagues from the general manager's office left work one after another.

Shen Qinghuan's legs were sore from standing, but he still persisted, and his stomach was growling.

She touched her stomach and complained in her heart, Yu Beiting is really a workaholic, isn’t he hungry?

Until ten o'clock, Lin Yi was the only one left in the general manager's office.

Lin Yi came out of the office and saw Shen Qinghuan still standing there, so he walked over.

“Miss Shen, please go back first.”

Shen Qinghuan: "Where's Yu Beiting? Is he done with his work?"

Lin Yi hesitated to speak, and finally said reluctantly: "I'll go ask for you again."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

Lin Yi walked into the office with gritted teeth.

“President, Miss Shen is still waiting outside.”

Yu Beiting's hand paused as he signed, but he didn't respond and continued signing.

Lin Yi thought that Yu Beiting still would not meet Shen Qinghuan, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Let her in."

"good."

Shen Qinghuan's legs were almost numb. She was finally able to go in. She hurriedly thanked Lin Yi. Because her legs were so numb, her walking posture was a little strange.

She pushed the door open and came in. Yu Beiting looked up and saw her walking posture. His eyes became visibly deeper and heavier, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became several degrees colder.

"Yu Beiting, I can explain the video issue, but the project can't be stopped no matter what."

She didn't want to waste time explaining the video, but now it has become involved in the project.

"Explain?" Yu Beiting's heart was in turmoil, but he didn't show it. His eyes were filled with disgust: "Shen Qinghuan, you always manage to refresh my understanding of you."

The man's cold sarcasm made Shen Qinghuan freeze. His sharp yet distrustful eyes reminded her of the past.

Any explanation would be futile at that time.

It is still the same today.

Shen Qinghuan clenched her fists, her nails digging into the flesh of her palms. Despite this, she had to explain.

"The man in the video and I are friends. He was... drunk that day. I saw no one was sending him home, so out of friendship, I just gave him a ride home."

"Believe it or not, that's the truth."

After Shen Qinghuan finished speaking, he loosened his hand, leaving several bright red nail marks on the palm of his hand.

Yu Beiting didn't say anything, but he obviously didn't believe her one-sided story.

But for some reason, the fire in his heart quietly dissipated a little.

The long silence turned into invisible pressure that weighed heavily on Shen Qinghuan's heart.

"Yu Beiting..."

"I don't want to hear your excuses." Yu Beiting turned his chair, facing away from her, and said in a deep voice, "Do you know what consequences this incident has brought to the Yu family?"

Shen Qinghuan: "No matter what the consequences are, I can bear them, but the project cannot be stopped."

This was the second time she mentioned that the project could not be stopped since she came in.

Yu Beiting frowned and fell silent again.

Shen Qinghuan clenched her fingers, then loosened them, tightened them again, and loosened them again, repeating this three or four times. She bit her lip and her voice softened.

"Please, Yu Beiting, this project really can't be stopped."

This was the first time Shen Qinghuan said the word "please" in front of Yu Beiting.

Because of him, she had been deeply traumatized and hated him, so she didn't want to bow down to him in any way.
