Chapter 480 Loss of Emotional Control

Han Xi has always been calm about Bo Siye's matter, and he had previously worried that Shen Jiheng would act impulsively, so he repeatedly reminded him to think twice.

Now she can't suppress her anger and even has the idea of ​​getting rid of him.

Shen Jiheng knew that Han Chuang's matter had already dealt a huge blow to her, and now Bo Siye had taken Zhuo Qingqian away, which completely enraged Han Xi and made her unable to calm down.

"Han Xi, look at me. You're being too impulsive. Take a deep breath and calm down."

Han Xi shook his head: "Ji Heng, I was wrong in the past. I finally understand why you became so cold. Only by being ruthless to the enemy can you prevent your own people from getting hurt."

Shen Jiheng can change, but he doesn't want Han Xi to become like that.

Only he knew the consequences of this; it would only make people more indifferent.

"You're not wrong. Just keep it this way, and I'll handle the rest."

Han Xi spread his hands and said, "I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I'll adapt to the situation. If we can get the answer, that would be great. If not, I'll think of another way."

Shen Jiheng shook his head. "You've lost your mind. Give me another half a day, and I promise I'll bring the person to your side."

Even if it meant risking his own life, Shen Jiheng would never let Han Xi take such a risk.

Han Xi stared blankly at him. Shen Jiheng's attitude was firm; how could he possibly let her do such a thing?

Seeing her expression, Shen Jiheng felt sorry for her and hugged her tightly.

"Relax, everything will be alright."

Han Xi simply didn't want Zhuo Qingqian to get into trouble after losing Han Chuang; she couldn't bear that blow.

Shen Jiheng gently patted her head to calm her down.

With his comforting words, Han Xi finally calmed down and fell asleep in his arms.

Shen Jiheng understood her feelings; the repeated blows she had suffered had made it difficult for her to control her emotions.

When the car arrived at the company building, Shen Jiheng was in no hurry to wake Han Xi, wanting her to stay in his arms and sleep a little longer.

But a phone call broke the silence; Shen Jiheng's phone rang, waking Han Xi.

Shen Jiheng glanced at the phone and said, "It's Director Wu calling."

Han Xi nodded slightly, sat up and looked out the window, still feeling a little dazed.

"What? He couldn't be saved?"

Hearing his serious tone, Han Xi turned around anxiously. Shen Jiheng gave her a few instructions, put down the phone, and looked at her with a solemn expression.

Han Xi asked in a panic, "What happened? Who's in trouble?"

Shen Jiheng replied, "Li Hai suddenly fell ill in the detention center and could not be saved even after being sent to the hospital."

Han Xi looked at him in surprise. Under these circumstances, it seemed very much like the work of Shen Jiheng.

However, Han Xi knew from his expression that it wasn't true. If he really wanted to take direct action against Li Hai, he wouldn't have tried to suppress the forces behind him.

Shen Jiheng added, "According to Director Wu's analysis, it was probably poisoned, but with him dead, all the problems are solved."

Han Xi said worriedly, "But even my first reaction was that it had something to do with you, and I'm sure everyone else felt the same way."

Shen Jiheng nodded, rubbing her face and saying, "It doesn't matter. The police will investigate. Bo Siye has no one to threaten you now, and Miss Zhuo will be fine too."

Li Hai had already confessed to all the charges, and now that he has died suddenly, the case will not be investigated further.

"But Bo Siye will not compromise easily."

Shen Jiheng smiled calmly and said, "Li Hai isn't here, so he can't stir up any trouble. He's made another mistake this time. I'm really curious to see who's helping us out behind the scenes."

Eliminating Li Hai would save them a lot of trouble. Now his men wouldn't have to run around trying to pull strings for him, and Shen Jiheng wouldn't need to use his power to suppress them.

Han Xi was also curious. In such a secure place as a detention center, who could possibly target the suspicious Li Hai? It was clear that their methods were not simple.

"Then we still need to find Qianqian as soon as possible. I'll send this message to her and hope she can contact me after she sees it."

Although Li Hai no longer poses a threat, Han Xi is still worried that Zhuo Qingqian might do something rash.

Since she can't be reached by phone, Han Xi can only send her messages on other social media platforms.

Unfortunately, I haven't received a response from Zhuo Qingqian, but I have received messages from other people...

Shen Jiheng glanced at the time and said, "Let's go back to the office and wait. I have an important video conference later."

Han Xi knew he was going to go back quickly. I feel a bit stuffy, so I'll stay outside for a while and then come in.

Shen Jiheng was still a little worried, but Han Xi pushed his shoulder and laughed, "Don't worry about me. I'll just stand here for a while. Besides, Leng Yu is with me. What are you afraid of?"

They're all right in front of his house, surely no one would dare to cause trouble.

Shen Jiheng nodded and reminded Leng Yu to stay close.

After Shen Jiheng entered the hall, Han Xi pointed to the commercial area across the street.

"Xiaoyu, I feel a bit listless. Could you please buy me a coffee? I'll wait for you in the lobby lounge area."

Leng Yu was a little worried, but seeing that Han Xi had gone inside and there were familiar faces and security guards, she nodded without thinking too much about it.

"Okay, I'll be right back. You stay inside and don't leave."

Han Xi nodded slightly and urged her to hurry up.

Once Leng Yu disappeared from sight, Han Xi immediately ran outside, quickly hailed a car, and left.

When Leng Yu returned with the coffee, Han Xi was nowhere to be seen. She assumed Han Xi had already gone back to Shen Jiheng's office, but when she went upstairs, she learned that Han Xi hadn't gone up at all.

Leng Yu immediately ran to the monitoring room to check the situation and found that Han Xi had left as soon as she left, which meant that he had deliberately sent her away.

Given the urgency of the situation, Leng Yu had no choice but to report to Shen Jiheng. Upon learning that Han Xi had left on her own, Shen Jiheng had no choice but to cancel the meeting and immediately send people to track down her.

Shen Jiheng dialed Han Xi's number repeatedly, but unfortunately, the phone was switched off.

The disappearance of Zhuo Qingqian was already a headache for him, but he didn't expect Han Xi to suddenly go missing as well.

Shen Jiheng now only regrets that he did not notice Han Xi's change. He should have forced her to stay with him when she wanted to stay alone.

Leng Yu said remorsefully, "I'm sorry, President, I didn't keep a close eye on President Han."

Shen Jiheng waved his hand, not blaming her. Leng Yu had no way of preventing what Han Xi wanted to do.

"Take this as a lesson, and you won't make the same mistake again next time."

Shen Jiheng could roughly guess the reason why Han Xi suddenly made this move. It was definitely related to Zhuo Qingqian. Now that they couldn't find Han Xi's whereabouts, they were chasing after Bo Siye's whereabouts.

Soon, Shen Jiheng received a report from the spy monitoring Bo Siye that Bo Siye had been spotted at a farmhouse in the suburbs.

Shen Jiheng instructed everyone to keep a close eye on Han Xi's whereabouts and to bring him back immediately if they spotted him.

The car carrying Han Xi did not go to the farmhouse, but stopped at a park.

She ran in according to the route she had received, and when she arrived at the pavilion in the bamboo forest, she found Zhuo Qingqian sitting inside, with two bodyguards guarding her.

When Han Xi first received this message, she thought it was a prank by Bo Siye, but she didn't expect that he would actually find Zhuo Qingqian.
