Chapter 158 Joy gradually turns to fear
"Perfume?" She was stunned by the request, then nodded and gave the man her usual perfume.
Shen Shian lowered his head and smelled it. It was this smell, and he was so happy that a small smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that the smell of cooking fumes from my cooking has polluted the entire living room, which is why Director Shen asked me for perfume." Xu Ziyue thought secretly in her heart and sighed. There was nothing she could do, cooking would always have the smell of cooking fumes.
"Thank you for the perfume, go to bed early." After saying good night, Shen Shian took the perfume downstairs, sprayed it on the quilt, then turned off the lights on the first floor, lay on the sofa, covered with the fragrant quilt and fell asleep.
In the darkness, the man buried his face in the quilt and sniffed, his brows slowly frowning. No, the smell was wrong.
When I first sprayed it, the smell was indeed similar, but now it smells just similar, not the smell of Xu Ziyue's quilt, and it has no sleep-inducing effect.
Could it be a mixture of other smells? Shen Ershao's brain raced. What was this mixture? Laundry detergent? Washing powder? Cosmetics? Shampoo? Shower gel?
When passing the kitchen, he noticed that Xu Ziyue also placed toiletries in the bathroom on the first floor. She lived here alone, so the toiletries must be her own brand. Shen Shian immediately got up and went into the bathroom. He unscrewed the shower gel, shampoo, and laundry detergent and smelled them one by one. None of the smells sounded familiar or pleasant to him.
"Oh, it's very late. The right thing to do is to go to bed early." After putting the things back in their places, Shen Shi'an lay back on the sofa unhappily.
The next morning, Shen Shian needed to go back to the company to sign a document, so he arrived at eight o'clock. Within five minutes, Lu Lou also rushed over and handed him the document. Seeing his haggard face, he was very surprised: "Brother An, aren't you on vacation? Why do you look so bad?"
"I didn't sleep well last night." He only slept for two hours in total. His eyes were open for the rest of the time. The smell of the perfume seemed poisonous. When he smelled it, his mind became very clear. The refreshing effect was better than coffee.
"Xiao Lou, you are very knowledgeable. Let me ask you something!"
Being praised for his wide knowledge, Lu Lou was delighted and said with pride, "Just ask. There's nothing we can't ask."
Clearing his throat, Shen Shian blurted out, "What else do you think a quilt covered by a girl would smell like, besides the smell of perfume?"
"A girl!" Lu Lou was extremely surprised: "Brother An, have you come to your senses? I have a sister-in-law again?"
Shen Shi'an frowned, raised his hand and slapped the man on the back of the head, and said coldly: "If you want a sister-in-law, ask your cousin to find one. I...ahem, have a friend who...he is investigating a case and asked me this question."
If he had only said "I have a friend", the clever Lu Lou would definitely suspect that he was "making up a friend out of nothing", but he mentioned "investigating a case", and Lu Lou, who always respected the people's police, did not dare to blaspheme in the slightest and started thinking seriously.
Ten seconds later, he stroked his chin and said, "If it's a lazy girl, her quilt will smell not only of perfume, shampoo, shower gel, and skincare products, but also of food and air freshener. Oh, right, there's also their own body odor, and... ahem, body odor and foot odor! Ange, what case is your friend investigating? Is the victim a woman? How is she? Is she alive or dead?"
Shen Shian glanced at him calmly and said, "This is confidential. I've signed the contract and am leaving now."
"Okay, I'm going to work first. Workers have a working spirit, and workers are the best! Come on, Lu Lou, today is another day to be a cow and horse for your cousin, you must be the most handsome cow and horse!"
Shen Shian: “…”
Lu Lou left as soon as he said he would.
Shen Shi'an, who said he would leave first, did not leave. He sat on the sofa in the leisure area and thought carefully about what Lu Lou had just said. Finally, he finally determined what mixture of smells that were made of.
"It's her own body fragrance..." Shen Shi'an pursed his thin lips, his ears were red as blood.
Yan Group, President's Office
"Mr. Yan, wake up." Yan Haiyang, who was soundly asleep in the lounge, was awakened by Yan Haisong's secretary. Yan Haisong slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the secretary, and then looked at the surroundings, feeling confused.
"Why am I here?" Yan Haiyang raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, feeling dizzy and tired.
"Mr. Yan, your brother, President Yan, has transferred the company to you. From today on, you are the president of Yan Group. Go wash up and go to conference room number three to meet with the five CEOs you have cooperated with before. They are here to collect debts as usual today." said the secretary.
After digesting these words, Yan Haiyang's scalp tingled and his whole body went cold. Did his second brother transfer the company to him? Last night's memories gradually woke up, surging vividly in his mind like a tide. He finally remembered that his second brother had asked him to come to the office yesterday afternoon and asked him to assume the company's debts. He was unwilling and suddenly fainted for unknown reasons. He had no recollection of what happened in between!
Yan Haisong lowered his head and saw the two documents in his hands. It was as if a bucket of cold water was poured on him, and he felt cold from head to toe. He couldn't believe that his second brother would be so irresponsible as to leave this mess to him, but when he opened the contract and saw his signature, he couldn't refute it.
"Damn it, he actually disregarded our brotherhood and asked me to clean up this mess!" God knows, he doesn't know how to do business at all.
"Mr. Yan?" The secretary called again, staring at Yan Haiyang quietly. As a secretary who often followed Yan Haisong to various occasions, if Yan Haisong disappeared, he would most likely be targeted by that group of bosses. Fortunately, Boss Yan was kind enough to throw the blame to his own brother, so as to prevent him and other small fry from suffering disaster.
He knew that Yan Haisong's behavior was not fair, but he was just an employee and just wanted to keep himself out of trouble.
"You go out first, I'll come back after I'm done packing." Being stared at by the secretary, Yan Haiyang felt very uncomfortable, as if being stared at by a wild beast on its prey. He waved his hand in annoyance and drove the secretary out.
Then, Yan Haiyang walked around the room with his hands behind his back, thinking of a solution.
He couldn't go to meet those bosses. Once he did, the secretary would reveal that he was now the legal representative of the company, and the debt collectors would come looking for him. He only had 500,000 yuan left. He originally had 1 million yuan, but his mistress was restless and wanted to destroy his family. So he used the 500,000 yuan to buy a piece of jewelry to please his mistress.
"I have no money, I can't go to see them." Yan Haiyang muttered, his face flushed.
"Mr. Yan, are you ready?" The secretary knocked on the door. "Those CEOs are getting impatient and are on their way to the office. Please hurry up! I'm afraid they won't be able to see you and will tear down the office."
"I know, I know. What are you afraid of? I'm not like that!"
The trembling in his voice was obvious, and at the same time, it contained a strong sense of anger.
Yan Haiyang scratched his hair frantically, his eyes suddenly stopped and fixed on the window. Without much hesitation, he opened the window and sat on it.
The height of the twenty-story building made his heart tremble, but he was not so stupid. As long as he climbed to the next floor, he would have the opportunity to leave the company. After all, no notice had been sent out yet, and no one knew that he was the person in charge of the company.
Yan Haiyang held his breath, took a deep breath, stretched his legs on the edge of danger, stepped on the protruding brick on the wall where the potted plants were placed, then jumped up and slid down the water pipe in front.
Having successfully reached the next floor, he grinned with joy, stretched out his feet again, stepped on the air conditioner, used it as a support point, and jumped towards the window eagerly like a monkey wandering in the air holding on to a vine.
At this moment, someone in the room accidentally raised his hand and closed the window with a "snap".
Yan Haiyang's eyes widened as his hands and feet began to slip. The joy in his eyes gradually gave way to fear...
A few seconds later: "Oh my God, someone jumped off the building!"
