"I was still wondering when you would contact me after you came back. But after waiting for a long time, I realized that I was just being wishful thinking." Mr. Shao, who usually appeared to be very cool and smooth in front of others, did not have a good tone at this moment.
If you listen carefully, you can hear a hint of complaint in his words.
"Sorry." Qi Jun didn't know how to start.
Mr. Shao looked at him, sighed, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and patted his shoulder. "It's good that you can come back, but since you didn't contact me first, you must treat me to a meal. Let me spend a lot of money to relieve the hatred in my heart."
He said viciously.
Qi Jun smiled and also gently punched the other person's shoulder with his fist.
"How is the company doing now?" asked Mr. Shao.
"I'm fine now. The money has been recovered. Don't worry." The other party asked this because he knew what had happened to him recently.
Besides, Qi Jun didn't intend to hide it. Firstly, reporters were following him the whole time, so he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.
What's more, he didn't expect to meet Shao Qi here. When he saw Shao Qi, Qi Jun thought of something and opened his mouth to ask, but he didn't say it in the end.
"What's going on?"
He gestured to the man who was stopped by Special Assistant Qin and asked.
He came here with Li Hanting today to discuss business, but he didn't expect to see this scene when he came out of the box.
"Hey, don't mention it." Although the two had just met, there was no sense of unfamiliarity. Shao Qi told Qi Jun the whole story and said at the end: "People's quality is really getting worse and worse nowadays. It's also thanks to my good temper. If it were us back then, I would have picked up the bottle a long time ago."
Shao Qi was not exaggerating at all. Back then, when he and Qi Jun were friends, they would rather use their fists to make things happen than waste their breath on reasoning with others.
"You moved out?" Qi Jun asked him in surprise.
"Yeah." Shao Qi responded casually. Seeing that Special Assistant Qin had almost finished dealing with the situation, he was about to go over when he heard a group of people shouting behind him.
"Mr. Shao——"
"Mr. Shao."
"Mr. Shao..."
Shao Qi turned around and saw An Lan calling everyone in the company up.
"Mr. Shao..." An Lan came up and looked at Qi Jun, and then looked at the man who had been drinking with her and no longer had any arrogance.
"It's okay, everyone go back. This is my friend, the matter has been resolved, everyone go back and rest, and go to work as usual tomorrow." Shao Qi said lightly.
The people who were just called up: "..."
Since Mr. Shao said so, everyone was not ignorant. After asking about the situation, they informed each other and walked out in groups of three or two.
But no one expected that something unexpected would happen at this time.
Qin Zhe brought two bodyguards with him. After a conversation, he originally wanted the drunk man to apologize to Xia Yunxi.
After all, everything that just happened was seen by the president and him.
Given the president's temperament, how could he allow such a person to insult Miss Xia?
However, it may be that their handling method was too gentle, which led to the man not recognizing his own identity.
He immediately started making a fuss and even started fighting with the two bodyguards.
So during the pushing and shoving, someone in front was pushed down, and the force hit Xia Yunxi directly.
Xia Yunxi was also very unlucky. She just needed an apology. She couldn't be scolded for no reason and then pretend nothing happened, right?
But she didn't expect that the drunk man would be so bold.
They start fighting as soon as they disagree.
When his body was pressed against the cold wall, Xia Yunxi couldn't figure out whether it was his shoulder or his head that hurt.
She felt her mind was blurry and her eyes were dazzled, making it impossible for her to understand the specific situation at the moment.
"Miss Xia..."
"Xiao Xia——"
"Yun Xi..."
Several voices rang in Xia Yunxi's ears, but she couldn't hear them clearly, and her body slid down uncontrollably.
Just when she thought she might fall, a strong arm suddenly covered her waist.
In a blur, Xia Yunxi saw the man's cold face, his eyes full of hostility, and a gloomy look.
The man pursed his lips and looked coldly at the drunk man who had been subdued by the bodyguards. "Send him to the Public Security Bureau and say hello."
He said coldly, and Qin Zhe immediately understood: "Yes."
Then Xia Yunxi felt her body suddenly float in the air. Before she could recover from the dizziness from the collision, the world was spinning around her. The next second, she was picked up by the man by the waist.
Xia Yunxi subconsciously put her arms around the man's neck. She opened her eyes and felt so dizzy that she couldn't help but lean her head on the man's shoulder.
The woman's movements caused the arms of the person holding her to stiffen slightly.
Li Hanting lowered his head and looked at it. At just one glance, he clearly saw a clear red mark on the smooth forehead.
The man's eyes darkened, and the drunk man over there was still shouting.
Qin Zhe had been with Li Hanting for all these years, so what kind of big scene had he not seen? With an experienced wave of his hand, the two bodyguards casually took out a towel and stuffed it tightly into the drunk man's mouth.
Successfully resisted the suicidal shouting.
Li Hanting walked through the crowd holding Xia Yunxi and headed towards the elevator.
When the people gathered in the corridor saw this scene, they all wanted to stop it.
But it is obvious that among the company's colleagues, only Mr. Shao can make the decision.
Mr. Shao was also very confused. He looked at Qi Jun, not understanding who Li Hanting was?
Is it reliable?
As brothers who have been close friends for more than ten years, Qi Jun could of course see the look in his eyes.
But how should he say this?
Although Mao Qihang was gossiping in his ears, and Qin Zhe had just come out of the box and called her "Miss Xia", Li Hanting had obviously changed a little. Although it was not obvious, it was still noticeable to his brothers at a glance.
However, Qi Jun couldn't guess whether it was because of that woman that the brothers noticed her, or was it just because she was the biological mother of the two children?
Regardless of the point, this was someone else's private matter. Qi Jun wasn't a gossipmonger and simply replied, "They know each other."
Then he changed the subject.
Hearing such a statement, Mr. Shao certainly would not be indifferent.
After letting the people from his own company leave, he and Qi Jun opened a private room again to reminisce about the past.
As soon as I walked out of the hotel, the cold wind blew on my face, and my already dizzy head was stimulated by the cold.
Xia Yunxi was much more sober. She raised her head slightly to look at the man above her. His steps were steady and his arms around her were strong and powerful.
The man's unique and refreshing scent lingered at the tip of her nose, and Xia Yunxi could even feel the strong heartbeat in her chest.
