Chapter 157 Sleeping on the Sofa Tonight
"Director Shen, do you have something urgent to do so late at night? Is Fuhuang Group very busy now?" Being placed on the sofa, Xu Ziyue was very curious about the man's emergency outing late at night. Perhaps, it was because Fuhuang Group was her old employer, and she naturally had some feelings for him.
"It's not a company matter. Yan Haisong embezzled public funds and tried to flee the country tonight, but was caught by the police. I went to the police station to check the situation."
"Great! Will he go to jail? How much money did he embezzle? Is it a large amount?" Xu Ziyue's watery eyes were full of anticipation.
Shen Shian raised his eyebrows: "The total funds of the Yan Group are only five million, but someone reported him with strong evidence for framing his brother by causing a car accident and poisoning his niece. His crimes are more serious than Yan Haitao's."
"Is there any evidence? Who reported it?" Xu Ziyue knew that Yan Nuo could not find any evidence on his own.
"It's a mysterious kind person, right? After I reported her, she left and asked the police station not to disclose her personal information. So, I don't know who she is, and I can't even tell if she's a man or a woman." At this point, Shen Shi'an looked at Xu Ziyue with bright eyes: "Do you have any candidates in mind?"
Hearing this, Xu Ziyue thought seriously for a minute and shook her head. "I can't think of it. Our social circle is very narrow... Because of our father's job, we are very cautious when making friends. Especially Yan Nuo. His uncle and aunt died young. Yan Nuo is alone with a huge sum of money. If he wasn't careful, he might have been cheated out of all the money long ago."
"It's right to be cautious, especially since you are girls." Society is stable, but people's hearts are always unpredictable.
"Director Shen, do you want to have a midnight snack? I cooked something!" Xu Ziyue asked.
Looking at the girl's clear eyes, Shen Shian nodded: "Eat."
"Then I..." I was about to bring him some food, but then, thinking about how badly injured I was, I changed the subject and said, "You can eat at my place. If you're busy, just pack it up and bring it back."
"Okay." Yan Haisong was caught, and his recent mission was successfully completed. He had nothing to do. After responding with a word, Shen Shian bent down and picked up Xu Ziyue horizontally again.
Xu Ziyue was in so much pain that she stopped being pretentious and returned to her apartment. Just as she was about to ask for help, the man asked first, "Is there a medicine box?"
"Yes, in the room where I sleep." She has been very naughty since she was a child and often got injured. There are three medicine boxes prepared for her at home. The day after she moved out, her mother brought the most commonly used medicine box here. After the last car accident, she also specially updated all the medicines in the medicine box for her.
"Can I come into your bedroom?" Shen Shian asked.
Xu Ziyue nodded: "Of course, the medicine box is in the lower right corner of the wardrobe."
"Well, you sit down first, I'll get it down."
After a while, the man came down with a medicine box, squatted beside Xu Ziyue, helped her roll up her trouser legs, and cleaned the wound on her knee with cotton and medical alcohol.
Also, my hands were slightly scratched.
Looking at these wounds of varying sizes, Shen Shi'an sighed inwardly with guilt.
After applying the potion, the pain in the bones gradually eased. Xu Ziyue pointed at the food on the table and said, "Director Shen, go eat!"
"Together." Who would come to someone else's house to eat alone? Shen Shi'an closed the medicine box and reached out to carry Xu Ziyue to the dining chair. His eyes swept over the three burnt dishes on the table and trembled violently.
"This is...a dish you made?" Are you sure it's not charcoal?
"Yes, I woke up in the middle of the night and cooked whatever was in the refrigerator. It doesn't look very good, but I can assure you that it is absolutely delicious. I ate a lot of it." Xu Ziyue said with great confidence.
Shen Shian's cooking skills were very poor, and he envied Xu Ziyue's confidence in this area. He picked up a piece of green pepper that was two-thirds burnt with chopsticks and put it into his mouth with anticipation of tasting the delicious food. His face wrinkled slightly, and the next second, he tried hard to control his brows from wrinkling.
"Is it delicious? Does it taste like barbecue?" The girl's eyes sparkled.
"Well, that's the feeling."
"This is the most successful dish I've ever made." Xu Ziyue said happily, "No matter how hard I tried before, it always turned out inedible. This time I was so hungry that I just casually stir-fried it, and it turned out to be edible."
"The dishes you cook are indeed delicious." Eating too much burnt food is bad for the body. If he doesn't finish it, the girl will definitely eat it herself. So Shen Shi'an held his breath and ate all three dishes, then cleaned up the dishes and went into the kitchen to wash them.
Xu Ziyue did not stop him. The dish was cooked by her, so naturally he had to share some of the work if he ate it.
While the man was washing dishes, Xu Ziyue walked back and forth holding on to the wall, hoping that when she woke up tomorrow, her bones would not hurt so much.
After washing the dishes, Shen Shian saw that the girl still had difficulty walking, so he walked over and said, "I'll sleep on the sofa tonight. If you need anything, call me and I'll go up and help you."
"No need, I'm fine." Xu Ziyue said quickly.
Shen Shian sighed, "Let's just leave it at that. Seeing you walking like that makes me feel embarrassed to go back to sleep. It's my fault. I should have watched carefully before I did anything. I'll go back and change my clothes, then come over."
As soon as the words died down, the long legs started walking towards the door, and it was too late to stop them.
Shen Shian took a three-minute shower, changed into pajamas, turned off the lights in the house, and then went to Xu Ziyue with his pillow and quilt.
"By the way, can I borrow your perfume?" Shen Shian couldn't help but ask as he helped the girl to the bedroom door.
