Chapter 81 She ran away with someone

Han Xi smiled indifferently: "If I told you it was just a coincidence, would you believe me?"

Shen Jiheng said angrily, "Do you think I would believe that? Or do you want me to say that you two are on the same wavelength? Since you made an appointment with him, why did you make me come?"

Bo Siye stepped forward and rebuked, "Shen Jiheng, watch your tone. I just happened to be passing by and came to take a look. I had no idea you would come."

Shen Jiheng nodded vigorously. They've all started defending him now, and he's the only one acting like a fool.

He glared at Han Xi before getting back into the car and said coldly, "Remember, you're about to become a mother. Be mindful of your actions and behave yourself."

After saying that, he drove off, completely ignoring Han Xi's expression.

Bo Siye walked to her side and asked softly, "Han Xi, how are you? Are you alright? What are you doing here?"

Han Xi smiled and shook her head. Why be disappointed or sad for such a person? She pointed to the small restaurant in front of her.

"Siye, do you still remember that restaurant? I didn't expect it to still be open. I'm hungry, why don't you treat me to a meal?"

"No problem, order whatever you like."

As he entered the restaurant, his phone beeped with a message. He avoided Han Xi's gaze and transferred some money to the sender as a thank you. If someone hadn't tipped him off, how would he have known that Han Xi was here?

Although it's somewhat dishonorable to take advantage of Han Xi's vulnerability now, there's no better way to win her heart.

Shen Jiheng returned to the company in a huff. He had originally intended to help Han Xi, but ended up not getting any lunch himself.

What angered him even more was why he had left in the first place; he should have brought Han Xi back with him.

How awful!

He spends every day by her side, but she only thinks of Bo Siye.

Shen Jiheng was in a bad mood all afternoon. Anyone who entered his office was like going through a trial by fire, and no one escaped being scolded.

Qin Chuan was also worried; the president's current emotions seemed to be closely related to his wife.

With the end of the workday fast approaching, Shen Jiheng called the old house and learned that Han Xi hadn't returned yet, so he immediately notified everyone in the company to work overtime.

The department manager cautiously approached Qin Chuan to discuss the matter.

"Assistant Qin, I think you should try to persuade the president. We've finished our work, and there's nothing to do even if we work overtime."

Qin Chuan was well aware of the company's situation, and said helplessly, "This is an order from the president, and I dare not disobey it. Have all departments stand by for now, and we'll see how the president feels later."

The manager sighed as he listened and had no choice but to go back and appease his employees.

Two hours later, Qin Chuan brought coffee to the office and saw Shen Jiheng standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands on his hips, exuding a terrifying aura that kept strangers at bay.

Qin Chuan took a deep breath and dared to speak: "President, it's already past eight o'clock, aren't you going home to be with your wife?"

Why should he accompany his wife? This woman is running off with Bo Siye at night. The more he thinks about it, the angrier he gets.

They spent the whole afternoon together, and they still didn't go home by evening. Did they even care about him?

The president's mood was so low. Qin Chuan mustered his courage and said, "I checked with each department, and everyone finished their work a long time ago. Do you think we should let them go home first?"

Shen Jiheng mechanically turned his head, his sharp gaze falling on him.

"Have you ever seen a company where the employees leave before the CEO does?"

"......"

Qin Chuan was speechless. That's not how it's said. His boss just sulked in his office the whole time and didn't do anything.

"It was my fault for being so talkative. I'll go out and get busy now."

It seemed that only his wife could save them, so Qin Chuan called Han Xi as soon as he left.

Han Xi was in her apartment dealing with contracts when she received the call out of curiosity.

"Assistant Qin, why are you calling me so late at night?"

"Madam, help me..."

Half an hour later, the door to Shen Jiheng's office was pushed open.

Shen Jiheng frowned. Qin Chuan was becoming more and more outrageous. He turned around angrily, only to find Han Xi standing at the door.

"Why did you come here? Are you willing to break up with your ex-lover?"

Han Xi really used up all her patience to hold back from scolding him.

After listening to Qin Chuan's story, she learned that Shen Jiheng was acting crazy at the company. She originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but she felt bad if others were affected because of the two of them.

Han Xi took a deep breath and calmly said, "Come back with me."

Shen Jiheng replied arrogantly, "Why should I listen to you? Didn't you see all those documents piled up on my desk? I haven't finished them yet."

Calm down, calm down!

Han Xi knew that he was angry because he saw her and Bo Siye together, so she had no choice but to explain.

“I spent the whole afternoon at the apartment dealing with the new contract. You can verify this with your friend; we communicated several times.”

Shen Jiheng looked at her curiously, and Han Xi said, "Just now, when I was organizing the legal contracts of another company, I heard that someone was acting recklessly in the company, so I came to take him away."

The pent-up anger in Shen Jiheng's heart instantly dissipated, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile. After all, she hadn't spent a single day with Bo Siye.

But he quickly added with displeasure, "This Assistant Qin is quite bold; he even dared to tattle on me."

Han Xi sighed and said, "Who told you to act crazy at the company? You're in a bad mood and you drag everyone in the company to work overtime with you. It's really unlucky to have a boss like you."

Shen Jiheng coughed twice. Didn't he have any pride?

"President Shen, can we go home now? I'm very tired after a long day."

Shen Jiheng walked up to her, pretending to be indifferent, and said, "Who told you to make me angry? Leave now since you came to pick me up in person."

Han Xi nodded. This young master was just too proud to admit his mistake and suffered for it.

As Shen Jiheng left the office, he said to the shadowy figure in the corner, "Assistant Qin, you're not getting your bonus this month."

Qin Chuan walked out heartbroken. This devilish CEO truly lived up to his reputation; he was incredibly ruthless.

But before his tears could fall, Shen Jiheng said, "Double the salary."

Qin Chuan's eyes widened; Shen Jiheng had given him a rollercoaster ride.

Before he could even react, Shen Jiheng had already left with Han Xi.

This man has that ability to push you to hell or send you to heaven.

The two returned home together, and the old lady was delighted to see them.

"Xi Xi, are you tired today? I've had someone prepare a late-night snack for you. Eat something before you go to sleep."

Shen Jiheng said unhappily, "Grandma, why don't you care about your own grandson?"

The old lady waved her hand dismissively, saying, "You're someone who could be thrown to the moon and come back unharmed. What do I have to worry about? Go stand over there."

Han Xi's mood improved, but when she entered the house, she saw Bai Xue sitting on the sofa watching TV. She quickly came to greet them when she saw them return.

"Brother Ji Heng, sister-in-law, you're back! Have you taken care of everything? Grandma wants me to stay a few more days to keep her company, so I can chat with you in the future."

How should Han Xi describe her feelings towards Bai Xue? She genuinely disliked her.

But seeing the Shen family's attitude towards her, she didn't know what to say.

"I'm going back to my room to change. You guys chat first."

Bai Xue stepped forward and took her hand considerately, saying, "Then I'll go with you, sister-in-law. You're pregnant now and need someone to take care of you."
