Chapter 137 Mutual Testing
Shen Jiheng gazed at the face he had longed for day and night, but her eyes were filled with worry for another man.
He tried every means to thwart Bo Siye's plan to return to China to develop his career, but he never thought of returning the money to him.
Including what was said in Han Xi's office before, it was all just to humiliate him.
"Han Xi, do you care about him that much?"
"Of course, he saved my life."
Shen Jiheng didn't understand. Even if Bo Siye had rescued her from the abandoned house back then, Han Xi didn't need to be so grateful to him.
Now is the time to get closer to Han Xi, so Shen Jiheng went along with her.
"I'm very grateful to him for helping you back then, but I can't give him this piece of land. I can introduce him to other locations."
"He has already planned everything here, and he can negotiate the price if you're willing."
"Did he send you to talk to me?"
Han Xi shook her head, her face full of anxiety.
"Si Ye doesn't want me to get involved in this. As a friend, I just want to help him out."
Shen Jiheng smiled but didn't say anything. If Bo Siye really didn't want her involved, Han Xi wouldn't be here.
This only shows that this person knows that having Han Xi come forward would be more effective, so they used another method to persuade her to come over.
It has to be said that Bo Siye is quite cunning. He pretended to be pitiful in front of Han Xi, and now he has become the victim. I'm afraid I've completely become the villain.
"I really can't do anything about this. You should have him rethink the plan."
Seeing that Shen Jiheng still had this attitude, Han Xi took a deep breath and said, "Shen Jiheng, I don't want to beat around the bush with you anymore. I already learned about the situation on my way here. You only got involved in this land project in the last week."
Since he was going to talk to him, Han Xi definitely needed to figure out the situation beforehand and then see what Shen Jiheng's attitude was.
I thought he would at least give me some face if I spoke up, but now it seems he's only thinking of his own selfish desires.
Shen Jiheng had indeed underestimated her. The current Han Xi was prepared for everything she did and would no longer let herself be kept in the dark like she had in the past.
Han Xi asked angrily, "You not only snatched this land, but you also told other developers not to sell it to Si Ye. Am I right?"
Damn it, how did Han Xi even find out about these things?
"You're right, that's exactly it."
Why did you do this? What grudge do you have against him?
Shen Jiheng held her shoulders and said sternly, "You ask me why? Whether it was back then or now, you always side with him whenever he appears."
How come Han Xi never realized that Shen Jiheng was truly capable of making unreasonable demands?
"Then why don't you look into what happened?"
"This is just an excuse for you to favor him. In short, as long as I'm here, he won't be able to establish himself in Chongqing."
Shen Jiheng stopped pretending and simply made some harsh remarks.
Han Xi knew this person was deliberately targeting him, and said angrily, "You don't need to be so petty. If you continue to hinder his development, then I will move Han Shu Group to another city, and let's see if you can still control everything then."
Shen Jiheng gripped her shoulders with a slight force, causing Han Xi to feel a slight pain.
"You went to such lengths to help him."
"Yes, I'll do anything to help Si Ye."
"Can it do anything?"
Shen Jiheng's restrained emotions were shattered by these words. He grabbed Han Xi's hand, opened the door to the lounge behind him, and threw him onto the bed.
Before Han Xi could react, his tall body pressed down on her, his hands bracing on either side of her, giving her no chance to escape.
Seeing his reddened eyes, Han Xi panicked a little.
"Shen Jiheng, what are you doing?"
Shen Jiheng grabbed her struggling hand and said, "Didn't you just swear that you would do anything to help him? Fine, sleep with me for a night, and I'll give that land back to him."
Han Xi stared at him in surprise, never expecting to hear such shameless words from Shen Jiheng's mouth.
Is he using himself as a bargaining chip?
"Don't go too far, I just want you to compete fairly."
"Why should I compete fairly with him? I have power and connections. I can get things done with just a word. I don't want to give him a chance."
These domineering yet truthful words left Han Xi speechless. She struggled fiercely, but Shen Jiheng simply refused to let go.
Shen Jiheng slowly leaned forward, his nose touching her face, then slowly sliding down to her ear.
"If you're willing to make some sacrifices, he can get what he wants. What do you think?"
"Okay, it's just taking a nap, fine, you can have whatever you want."
"......"
Shen Jiheng originally intended to test how far she was willing to go for Bo Siye, but it turned out she was really willing to sacrifice herself for this man.
Han Xi also wanted to know if Shen Jiheng was really so shameless as to use this method to coerce her.
Seeing Shen Jiheng stunned, Han Xi withdrew her hand and began to unbutton her clothes. She wanted to see how long it would take for this man to stop.
Shen Jiheng's pupils dilated, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at the scene before him.
Han Xi was actually willing to do such a thing for Bo Siye.
Was that man really that important to her?
"Han Xi, you'll regret this!"
Han Xi paused in her movements, and just as she was about to speak, Shen Jiheng sealed her lips with a kiss.
That's not the case; Han Xi's original intention was not to accept it.
She tried to push Shen Jiheng away, but he held her even tighter, not even giving her a chance to speak, and completely gained the upper hand.
Han Xi felt a bit oxygen-deprived in her head, and when she opened her mouth, he invaded it again.
Tasting the familiar scent between them, the longing hidden deep in their hearts surged forth like an unstoppable flood.
Tears welled in Han Xi's eyes. No matter how rationally she tried to avoid expressing her feelings for Shen Jiheng, her body reacted differently.
Shen Jiheng took off his clothes; he wanted Han Xi to know just how much he had missed her all these years...
Knock knock knock!
A knock on the door woke the sleeping person.
Shen Jiheng opened his eyes and saw that it was already dark outside. He subconsciously looked at the pillow, but Han Xi had already left.
He sighed, put on his clothes, and went out. He opened the office door, and Qin Chuan looked at him with a smile.
"President, it's already eight o'clock and you're still not home. The old lady said she couldn't reach you, so I came to bother you."
In the afternoon, Shen Jiheng instructed that no one should disturb them. Now that the old lady was looking for someone, Qin Chuan dared to knock on the door.
Shen Jiheng rubbed his head, a smile playing on his lips; he seemed to be in a good mood.
"I understand, I'll be back in a bit."
"President, it seems that your relationship with Miss Han is progressing well."
Shen Jiheng rolled his eyes. Why would he share his happiness with others?
"You're too nosy. By the way, about the land we bought a couple of days ago, prepare a new contract for it tomorrow. I want to transfer it to Bo Siye."
Qin Chuan's eyes widened, and he asked in confusion, "President, didn't you specifically seize this land? Why are you giving it to him?"
Considering how hard Han Xi had worked, she felt she had to give him face.
"They were useless to us anyway, so we might as well make some more money. Just do as I tell you to do."
Even if he were to give it to him, Shen Jiheng would make him suffer even more.
