Xu Yanshu was invited to play chess with Huang Dongsheng. The game was only halfway through when Huang Dongsheng noticed something was wrong with his opponent.
"Yan Shu, you don't look quite right. Is something wrong?"
The movement of placing a piece in his hand stopped. Upon hearing this, Xu Yanshu raised his head, hesitated for a moment, and then mentioned that he had been ambushed. He spoke very cautiously.
He subtly observed the changes in Huang Dongsheng's expression out of the corner of his eye, and then carefully added a sentence.
"I think I've seen that person at the Xie family's place before."
Everything has its limits. It's not appropriate to bother Huang Dongsheng with trivial matters. However, if you choose to hide things like this, it will inevitably arouse his suspicion and distrust if he finds out about it later.
Of course, he didn't tell the whole story; he kept separate matters and didn't mention his father's car accident.
The hatred for killing one's father is different from other hatred. If he has to rely on Huang Dongsheng to resolve this matter, he probably will never be able to sever ties with him for the rest of his life.
Huang Dongsheng's face instantly darkened. He tossed the black piece back into the game with a disinterested look, scoffed, and said coldly, "This Xie Junyang is really getting more and more capable. Now he even dares to touch my people."
As the saying goes, you have to consider the owner before you beat a dog. It was one thing to suppress and manipulate Yan Shu before, but now that I have made it clear that I will protect this person.
Xie Junyang's audacity in openly attacking Yan Shu is a blatant slap in his own face.
After calming down a bit, Huang Dongsheng looked up and glanced at Xu Yanshu with disapproval, his tone seemingly accusatory.
"Yan Shu, really, why didn't you tell me about this right away?"
Xu Yanshu rubbed his hands nervously. "I... I didn't expect to encounter something like this, and I'm afraid that if I speak rashly, I might implicate you as well."
"What, does Xie Junyang dare to mess with me?" Huang Dongsheng said noncommittally, his face full of contempt. "I know about this matter. Don't worry, I will definitely not let you suffer this injustice for nothing."
...
Meanwhile, Xie Junyang suddenly appeared in the group's president's office.
"Dad, why did you suddenly come to the company today?"
"Well, I realized I haven't been here for quite a few days, and since I had nothing to do this afternoon, I came to check on things!" Xie Junyang explained succinctly, then glanced at the person in front of him. "What, are you hiding something from me?"
A flicker of guilt flashed across Xie Huanyu's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and explained, feigning calmness.
"No, it's just that you've been busy with other things lately, so I thought you wouldn't be coming to the company for a while."
She had long been prepared to be suspected, and the more this was the case, the more she needed to remain calm, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Xie Junyang didn't press the matter further, but instead pointed to the empty seat next to him, indicating that the other person should sit down first.
Secretly relieved, Xie Huanyu readily sat down, a hint of wariness hidden deep in her eyes.
"Besides checking on the company's situation, there's something else I want to tell you today," Xie Junyang said in a deep voice, then paused halfway through his sentence, "You know without me saying it, we can't keep Xu Yanshu around like this forever."
Xie Huanyu nodded in deep agreement and said to herself, "But now that Mission Zero One has failed, the same tricks are not suitable to be used again, so we must think of a new way now."
Xie Junyang observed the speaker discreetly, but couldn't discern any flaws. His eyes darkened involuntarily.
Is he just overthinking it?
"Well, of course we can't go with the original plan anymore, but I really don't trust anyone else to handle this!"
"Huanyu, would you like to give it a try?"
Her back was already soaked with cold sweat, but Xie Huanyu nodded with a forced smile. "So there's a concrete plan now?"
"If it exists, I can give it a try!"
She vaguely sensed that her father might be testing her on purpose, so she tried her best to remain calm while secretly clenching her hands behind her back.
If she is indeed arranged to go herself, that would be good. She can then act according to the situation and avoid hurting Xu Yanshu as much as possible.
"Not yet, I was just asking you first, I thought you wouldn't be happy about it!" Xie Junyang said ambiguously.
"No way!"
Xie Huanyu replied resolutely, her eyes filled with unwavering determination, "I already dealt with this heartless man myself, but I was worried that taking action rashly would disrupt your plans."
"If such an opportunity really comes along, I would definitely do my duty without hesitation!"
Seeing that the other party showed no sign of fear, Xie Junyang stopped there and instead asked about the company's situation.
After confirming that there were basically no major problems, he glanced at the time and then got up to leave.
After watching the other person leave by car, Xie Huanyu turned around and went back to her office.
She slammed the door shut behind her, and the next second her legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground, her eyes suddenly becoming unfocused.
I didn't expect my father to suspect me so quickly... I barely managed to get through today's ordeal, but I'm afraid there will be many more tests like this in the future.
If her father were to discover what she had done, given his violent nature, her fate would likely be no better than death.
Her breathing was still rapid, and Xie Huanyu seemed to be still shaken. She unconsciously leaned back and then exhaled a long breath.
