Chapter 391 There is a traitor among them

Shen Jiheng had already made arrangements that the hypnotist would be intercepted by the embassy staff as soon as he got off the plane. He had even contacted the flight crew in advance, so how could he possibly let him escape?

The only possibility for this to happen is that there is a traitor among them who leaked their plans in advance and helped the other side escape.

Seeing his solemn expression, Han Xi reminded him, "It's obvious there's a traitor. How many people know about this?"

"It's indeed time to clean house." Shen Jiheng's tone was cold, filled with terrifying hatred.

He hated betrayal more than anything in his life, and he would severely punish those traitors every time, but he never expected that someone would dare to defy the law.

Shen Jiheng immediately summoned Qin Chuan and asked him to list all the people involved in this complicated incident so that he could investigate them one by one.

It's too dangerous to have someone like that around them; they have to be found out.

Qin Chuan arrived immediately upon learning of this matter. He had already counted the number of people on the way and handed over the list of relevant personnel to Gu after arriving at the Gu family's residence.

"President, all the people I've contacted are on this list, and I've also deployed a few of my own people to make arrangements."

Shen Jiheng nodded and carefully examined the list, while Han Xi stood beside him analyzing it.

The two men's fingers moved across the paper, eventually landing on the same person at the same time.

"Yang Quan!!"

The two called out the name in unison, their eyes meeting with complex expressions, seemingly having thought of the same thing.

This person was an elite assistant that Shen Jiheng recruited from a headhunting company after he drove Qin Chuan away.

As it turns out, Yang Quan is indeed very capable in all aspects. Apart from not being very familiar with some business matters, he is already on par with Qin Chuan in many ways.

Therefore, after Qin Chuan returned, he still kept Yang Quan by his side and entrusted him with important tasks, wanting to train him to be his right-hand man.

However, it was only after this person came into our lives that this situation occurred, so it's normal to suspect him.

Shen Jiheng clenched his fist and said, "If it really is him, I'll smash his bones."

Shen Jiheng had investigated his background and found nothing wrong with it. He was also personally recruited by Shen Jiheng, so it shouldn't be that Bo Siye arranged it.

Why would he betray me?

"Assistant Qin, take him into custody immediately, then search his communication devices and hand them over to our technical department for investigation. If it really was him, we'll find some clues."

Qin Chuan nodded: "Understood, I'll go right away!"

Han Xi felt a little anxious, suddenly realizing that everyone around her seemed to have a problem.

She frowned and said, "Ji Heng, I have a bad feeling."

Seeing her expression, Shen Jiheng said, "Are you thinking about Tang Yi?"

Surprised that he could see right through her thoughts, Han Xi asked, "How could you guess her?"

"Although you haven't mentioned her again, I know you care a lot because you keep an eye on Han Shu Group's activities."

Shen Jiheng understood that she wanted to handle the matter herself, so he didn't intervene. He would help her when she couldn't hold on any longer.

Han Xi nodded: "After seeing the video of Tang Yi and Jefferson together last time, I wondered if I was too trusting of people."

Han Xi had a special connection with Tang Yi. It was Tang Yi who risked coming to the company to expose Minister Qiu's actions, which helped Han Xi recover her losses.

Because of this affection, Han Xi chose to believe her.

However, she was unable to prove her innocence for a long time, and Han Xi also investigated a lot of information, with the blame pointing to Tang Yi.

Many people in the company told her not to trust Tang Yi, and even Leng Yu, who was close to her, had always been suspicious of her.

Despite this, Han Xi was still willing to believe her, but now Yang Quan's betrayal made her wonder if Tang Yi's appearance was a deception from the beginning.

“If you’re worried, you can leave it to me to investigate. I know you don’t want to rely on me too much, which is why I haven’t interfered.”

Han Xi did want to solve the problem herself, but at this moment she found herself somewhat confused.

"Then let me continue to depend on it."

Shen Jiheng smiled and said, "No problem, but as payment, I have one condition."

Han Xi knew that what came out of his mouth would never be serious, and she was mentally prepared, but she never expected him to say: "I want you to clear your mind, not think about anything now, and then sleep until dawn."

What Han Xi feared most was this person's sudden seriousness, which left him feeling somewhat at a loss.

Shen Jiheng pinched her cheek and laughed, "What's wrong? I let you off the hook because you were in a bad mood today, but you seem disappointed."

Han Xi slapped his hand away and rolled her eyes at him.

"I just didn't expect you to say something like that, but I promised Yumo I'd stay up with her and tell her stories tonight. If I break my promise, she won't be able to sleep."

Shen Jiheng took her hand and walked towards his daughter's room, laughing heartily, "That's perfect, I also want to hear you tell a story, it doesn't matter if there's one more person, you won't mind, will you!"

It was a rare opportunity for Shen Jiheng to spend time with the mother and daughter, and he wouldn't miss it.

Han Xi nodded: "Welcome."

Shen Jiheng felt a warmth in his heart; the fact that Han Xi no longer rejected his advances was the happiest thing for him.

But the night wasn't as wonderful as Shen Jiheng had imagined.

He had imagined a warm and romantic scene, with him holding the mother and daughter in his arms. But when he entered the house, Han Chuang and Han Yuxuan were both there, several pairs of eyes staring at him, ready to snatch his lover away the next second.

Han Xi was quickly surrounded by the three children, while Shen Jiheng could only sit by the bed and listen to the story.

Han Xi held the storybook and began to read it aloud to the children with great feeling. The children listened intently and gathered around her, creating a very heartwarming scene.

These stories, which are very appealing to children, held no attraction for Shen Jiheng, an adult; his eyes were fixed solely on Han Xi.

Just as Shen Jiheng was feeling bored and lowered his head, a hand suddenly covered his hand and gently tapped his fingers, as if conveying a signal to him.

Shen Jiheng excitedly lifted the curtain, only to be met with Han Xi's gentle smiling face.

This is simply too unfair. If it weren't for these third wheels, Shen Jiheng would definitely have hugged her tightly.

An hour later, the children were still not satisfied, so Shen Jiheng had to stand up and announce.

“Your mother is tired too, so let’s stop here for tonight. I will read to you tomorrow.”

Han Yumo stared at her longingly, not wanting her mother to leave.

Han Chuang immediately stepped forward, took the hands of the brother and sister, and said gently, "Uncle will tell you some interesting stories, and then we'll sleep together, okay?"

Children can always empathize with each other, and the two siblings immediately supported him.

"I want to hear my uncle sing." Han Yumo has gradually begun to like music.

Han Yuxuan also said, "I want to hear my uncle talk about Ultraman fighting monsters last time."

"Okay, I'll sing first, then tell a story, and let your mother go back and rest."

The two children nodded obediently, which warmed Han Xi's heart. Seeing them get along so well made her feel gratified.

Shen Jiheng cast an approving glance at Han Chuang. This kid is really thoughtful and has a bright future.

After saying goodnight to the children, Han Xi left the room. Shen Jiheng sighed, "I never imagined that taking care of children would be such a physically demanding job."
