Chapter 180 Don't worry, no matter how busy we are, it won't delay our summer vacation travel plans.

The family's final decision was as follows:

After Shi Hongzhen stepped down, the company was handed over to Shi Yuanxing and his sister to manage together.

That night, Qin Shuzhi and his group stayed overnight at the Shi Mansion.

After having a family meeting at the dinner table, the young couple went back to their room and held another little meeting.

"What should we do then?"

Qin Shuzhi lay on the bed, propping her head up to look at the man lying beside her. "Dad has handed the company over to you and your sister, so you won't be able to leave the company for at least a short period of time."

Shi Yuanxing rested one arm behind his head, while idly playing with her long hair with the other hand.

"Then I'll wait a bit longer. I'll leave once the company is stable and my sister has fully taken over."

"Didn't Jing Muchi say that after Qiao Wenbo's matter is over, you would take over the company while he goes after his wife?" Qin Shuzhi looked at him. "You'll have to manage both sides, won't that be very tiring and busy?"

Seeing the worry on her pretty face, and her round eyes staring at him without blinking, Shi Yuanxing, who was playing with her hair, casually hooked the back of her neck and pulled her towards him.

He gently nuzzled her nose with the tip of his own, a smile playing at the corners of his eyes. "Don't worry, no matter how busy I am, it won't delay our summer vacation plans."

Qin Shuzhi's birthday is in a month, and the third day after her birthday is their first wedding anniversary. Mr. Shi suggested that the two of them go on a trip to celebrate both her birthday and their wedding anniversary.

It was summer vacation at the time, and Qin Shuzhi was naturally overjoyed to hear this suggestion.

She had casually mentioned before that Bali would be a lot of fun in the summer, so Mr. Shi decided to make Bali their travel destination.

Qin Shuzhi was full of anticipation for the trip. She had previously wondered if ten days would be enough to enjoy herself, but now that Shi Yuan was so busy with his trip, she couldn't bear to let him rush through his work just to make time for her.

"How about...we go next year instead..."

As she was speaking, a slender finger pressed against her lips, silencing her and causing her to look up at the man.

"Next year will have its own plans."

He wrapped his arm around her lower back and pulled her into his arms. "Besides, this is my first wedding anniversary with Mrs. Shi. How can we change the date?"

Qin Shuzhi naturally wanted to celebrate their first wedding anniversary properly. After thinking it over for a moment, she suggested, "How about we shorten our trip to five days?"

Shi Yuanxing knew she was considering his work; his wife had always been so considerate and understanding.

He affectionately ruffled her hair. "Here's what we'll do: I'll make two travel plans. If we're short on time, we'll only go for five days. If I can free up some time, then we'll stick to the original plan."

Qin Shuzhi's eyes crinkled with joy as she replied, "Mhm."

Shi Hongzhen resigned as president of the Shi Group in the second week.

The position of president is vacant, and the company is jointly managed by Shi Qingman and Shi Yuanxing.

In the days that followed, Shi Yuanxing was indeed quite busy. Fortunately, although Jing Muchi said he would hand over Shengrui to him, he did not actually go on strike after learning about his situation.

During this time, Qin Shuzhi noticed that Sang Ning, who was usually quiet and reserved, had an increasingly radiant smile on her face, and her demeanor was completely different from when she first arrived.

It seems that the young couple is getting along quite well lately.

With final exams approaching, Qin Shuzhi has been quite busy lately. The couple are both working hard in their respective careers, and their lives are fulfilling and peaceful.

Although Qin Shuzhi was quite tired every day, she was full of energy every day as long as she thought that her birthday was a week after summer vacation, and then her wedding anniversary with Mr. Shi.

However, this expectation was shattered on the last day of the final exams.

After Qin Shuzhi finished proctoring the last exam of the day, he had just stepped out of the classroom when Sang Ning, with a serious expression, pulled him to a secluded corner.

"Sang Ning, what's wrong with you?"

Sang Ning didn't speak, but handed her the phone. "Look."

Qin Shuzhi took the phone and saw a trending news item displayed on the screen.

The question is—

A major accident occurred at the Shengrui development project, resulting in heavy casualties among the on-site construction workers.

Qin Shuzhi's pupils dilated suddenly, and she hurriedly clicked in to quickly browse the news.

The report stated that a suspected detector malfunction at the construction site of the Shengrui project led to a severe collapse, resulting in five deaths and more than a dozen serious injuries.

The families of the injured caused a scene at the scene, demanding an explanation from the person in charge of Shengrui.

“A-Chi is the company president, so he should definitely be held responsible for this.” Sang Ning looked anxious. “But I can’t get through to him on the phone, and I don’t know how he is. Shuzhi, could you contact your husband and ask him what’s going on for me?”

"Don't worry, I'll call right now." Qin Shuzhi reassured her while taking out his phone to dial Shi Yuanxing's number.

As a result, the phone rang and then stopped naturally.

"My husband didn't answer the phone either."

Even Qin Shuzhi was no longer calm.

In fact, Shi Yuanxing was more affected than Jing Muchi by this incident.

Like Jing Muchi, he is also the boss of Shengrui.

But in addition to that, he is also the person in charge of the Shi Group for this project.

If the cause of the accident is found to be a malfunction in the Starmicro detector of the Shi Group, then he will bear the greatest responsibility.

Sang Ning anxiously grabbed Qin Shuzhi's hand, "Then, shall we go to the company to find them?"

Just as Qin Shuzhi was about to speak, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Shi Yuanxing calling back, she quickly answered.

"A long journey".

Qin Shuzhi rarely called him that. Most of the time, she would call him "Mr. Shi" in a gentle and affectionate way. Of course, when she was being coquettish, she would also call him "husband" in a sweet voice.

Sensing the worry in her voice, Shi Yuanxing asked, "Did you see the news?"

"Um, are you all alright?"

Shi Yuanxing reassured him, "It's alright, don't worry."

Qin Shuzhi asked, "What exactly is going on?"

"The cause of the accident is still unclear. The police are investigating, and the injured workers have all been sent to the hospital for treatment."

Shi Yuanxing said, "I'm assisting with the handling of the accident at the scene right now. I might not be able to come back tonight. If it gets too late, you should go to sleep first and don't wait for me."

"But……"

Shi Yuanxing said, "Don't worry, it's okay."

Qin Shuzhi hummed in agreement. Seeing the anxious look in Sang Ning's eyes, she quickly turned on speakerphone and asked, "Where is Jing Muchi? Where is he now? Sang Ning can't get through to him on the phone and is very worried about him."

“He’s also at the accident site. He’s inside directing our technology team to inspect the detectors. Cell phones aren’t allowed inside, so he can’t answer calls,” Shi Yuanxing said. “Tell Professor Sang not to worry, I’ll have him call her back in a bit.”

Qin Shuzhi said, "Okay."

Sang Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
