Chapter 153 This is too much!
Although everyone is helping to cover up the two children's identities now, Shen Jiheng will find out one day, unless Han Xi takes them away again.
Now that Han Yumo is becoming more cheerful at the Gu family home, Han Xi doesn't want to take them away.
Seeing her serious expression, Zhuo Qingqian comforted her, "Xi Xi, don't think too much. Even if he finds out, we will resolutely not give him the child."
Gu Beichen poured cold water on the situation, saying, "It won't be up to us then. After all, we kept it from him first. As the child's biological father, he has custody rights and can definitely take one of them with him."
Zhuo Qingqian stepped on his foot, deliberately bringing up a sore spot. Han Xi just couldn't bear to separate the two children.
Han Xi smiled wryly and said, "Let nature take its course. Everyone, don't be too nervous."
She would never let her child leave her, no matter what.
The next day at noon, in the president's office of the Shen Group.
Qin Chuan entered Shen Jiheng's office with a smile and placed an exquisite box on his desk.
"President, as you instructed, we have successfully retrieved the Hetian jade."
As Shen Jiheng's most trusted assistant, if she can't even handle this kind of thing, she doesn't deserve to stay by his side.
Shen Jiheng nodded in satisfaction, opened the box and examined it carefully; it was indeed the jade pendant he was looking for.
"How's Bo Siye doing?"
"Of course I was furious, but these are things that the auction house can handle."
Shen Jiheng smiled. No company dared to disobey his orders in Chongqing, and the auction house would naturally not offend a wealthy man like him for the sake of an insignificant person.
As the top leader, he only cares about results; he leaves the process to his subordinates.
"Good. Keep an eye on his movements. If there's any sign of a fire, put it out for me."
"clear!"
In two weeks it will be the old lady's birthday banquet. Shen Jiheng found this jade pendant to give to her as a birthday gift, so that this long-lost jade pendant could be returned to its rightful owner.
As for why Bo Siye also wanted this Hetian jade, Shen Jiheng still doesn't understand.
Han Xi spent the morning at home with her child and only returned to the company in the afternoon to handle business. As soon as she arrived in the lobby, Peng Ling came forward to report.
"Mr. Han, Mr. Bo has arrived. He's been waiting in your office for quite a while and looks very anxious."
"Okay, I understand."
Han Xi walked quickly toward the office. Usually, Bo Siye would call ahead if he had something to discuss, so there must be something going on since he came here first this time.
When she arrived at the office, she saw Bo Siye with a stern face and eyes full of anger.
"Siye, what's wrong with you?"
Bo Siye took a heavy breath and said through gritted teeth, "The Hetian jade was tricked back by the people at the auction. I found out that it has fallen into Shen Jiheng's hands. He must have orchestrated all of this."
Han Xi was confused and didn't understand what he meant. She asked curiously, "What do you mean by 'trick them back'? You've already taken the picture, so how could they take it away?"
Bo Siye trembled with anger when he recalled what had happened.
“This morning, people from the auction came and said that the association requested that a short documentary be made of all the items auctioned this time, and asked me to temporarily take out the Hetian jade.”
I have heard of Han Xi before; it's true that some merchants will create a promotional video for the items they auction off.
"Then what?"
Bo Siye clenched his fist and said, "I didn't think much before taking out the Hetian jade. After they finished taking pictures, they suddenly received a call saying that the auction had been reported as fraudulent, all transactions were invalid, and all the auctioned items needed to be recalled."
This sounds suspicious. Han Xi frowned and said, "So they took the opportunity to take away the Hetian jade?"
Bo Siye nodded angrily: "That's right, they wanted to take the Hetian jade away. I wanted to stop them, but there were too many of them, and they were clearly prepared. I couldn't get it back at all."
Han Xi could completely understand his anger. He had gone to great lengths to get it back, only to have it taken away from him in this way. No one could accept that.
The key is now in Shen Jiheng's hands, and the result is obvious: he was the one who orchestrated it.
“I was going to find him, but I was kicked out at the door. Shen Jiheng is really going too far.”
Bo Siye was as smug as he was then, and now he was just as furious.
He thought that once he got his hands on the Hetian jade, there would be no more complications, but he never expected that it would be snatched away by someone else in this way before he could even enjoy it. He was really furious.
Han Xi couldn't understand why Shen Jiheng was so obsessed with Hetian jade, even resorting to such means to get it back.
"I have to confront Shen Jiheng. Grandpa is so angry he's fainted. If anything happens to him, I will never let him off the hook."
"How is Grandpa Bo?"
Bo Siye sighed: "He fainted due to high blood pressure and is undergoing examination at the hospital. I came here to ask you to do me a favor and arrange to meet Shen Jiheng. I want to talk to him in person."
Shen Jiheng is now avoiding him and won't even answer his calls. Bo Siye can only see that person by having Han Xi come forward.
Han Xi nodded: "That's easy. I can help you arrange to meet him. But since he used such methods to take the Hetian jade back, he definitely won't hand it over to you just because you negotiated."
Bo Siyue's face darkened further, and he said angrily, "That bastard, he's always picking on me."
Han Xi thought for a moment and said, "When I pretended to faint yesterday, I overheard some of their conversation. He probably wasn't targeting you."
Bo Siye disagreed with this explanation, stating bluntly, "He just can't stand to see me doing well and wants to destroy everything I have."
Han Xi shook her head. She had thought about this yesterday as well. Shen Jiheng had absolutely no need to go to such lengths for a piece of Hetian jade.
“He was also after Hetian jade yesterday. I overheard him talking to Qin Chuan, and he kept looking for the whereabouts of Hetian jade. He also said that it belonged to the Shen family.”
Bo Siye was stunned after hearing this. The Shen family had a feud with them for two generations, so how could this jade pendant possibly belong to the Shen family?
"Impossible. This jade pendant is a family heirloom of the Bo family. He must have heard something and deliberately said this to you."
Han Xi understood that he was angry, but some things still needed to be said truthfully.
"But given his status, there's no need for that at all. If he wanted antiques, he could collect more valuable ones. Why fixate on this one?"
Although this was Bo Siye's family heirloom and was priceless to them, it was ultimately just a piece of Hetian jade, not comparable to other rare treasures.
Bo Siye's expression was solemn. Could there be some reason he didn't know about?
He was indeed blinded by anger, but after hearing Han Xi's words, he calmed down and realized something was wrong.
“You’re right, but if I ask him, he definitely won’t tell me the truth.”
"I'm also very curious about this. Let me talk to him first and find out the reason before we talk about it."
Bo Siye said guiltily, "I didn't expect that I would still have to trouble you in the end. After you understand the situation, I want to talk to him in person."
He didn't want to use Han Xi, but given the current situation, he couldn't find anyone else.
