Chapter 191 Grandpa is truly mighty!
Han Xi's number one enemy was right in front of her, and it just so happened to be a member of the Shen family, shamelessly using that name, which disgusted her.
Shen Qingzhou raised her head high and said arrogantly, "Han Xi, this is where you went wrong. How could you hide such a big thing from us? Now, after discussion, the Shen family has decided that I will negotiate with you on their behalf."
Han Xi said bluntly, "The child is indeed a member of the Shen family, but you are the least qualified person to talk about it."
Shen Qingzhou's face turned ashen, and he was about to speak when Han Xi retorted.
"A man like you who is irresponsible and abandoned his wife and children has the nerve to come and yell at us. I don't know who gave you the guts. I'm giving you my last warning: get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Regardless of Han Xi's current identity or the power behind her, neither of them are people that Shen Qingzhou can bully.
Grandpa Gu stormed out, and facing this shameless man, he raised his cane and slammed it into the ground.
"Shen Qingzhou, you have some nerve to come to my doorstep and cause trouble. Do you believe that even if I bury you right here, no one will dare to say a word against me?"
Seeing that even the old man had stepped forward, Shen Qingzhou felt guilty and retreated.
"Grandpa, I didn't mean to offend you. I just know you have two grandchildren and I wanted to come and see them."
"How ridiculous! You ignore your own daughter and come to see your grandchildren whom you've never met. I think you've got a good plan. If I see you at the door again, I guarantee you won't leave alive. Get out!"
Although Grandpa Gu has been out of the picture for years, he still has connections.
Making someone disappear from Chongqing is incredibly easy.
Shen Qingzhou swallowed hard and retreated to the side of the road. He naturally dared not confront the Gu family head-on.
Originally, he wanted to get his hands on the two children, but he was afraid that Shen Jiheng would not listen to him.
"Don't be angry, sir. I'll leave now and visit you another day."
"If you come any closer, I'll break your legs. You'll see."
Grandpa Gu didn't want anyone to bother his granddaughter anymore.
If Shen Qingzhou stayed any longer, it seemed the Gu family might really make a move, so she had no choice but to leave in a sorry state with her bodyguards.
Han Xi breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to take the old man's hand.
"Grandpa is really awesome; he chased him away with just a few words."
Grandpa Gu patted her head and said affectionately, "No one can bully my precious granddaughter. I'm your backer."
Han Xi hugged his shoulder, moved. It was thanks to her family's support that she had such confidence.
Back in the living room, Gu Beichen picked up his phone and gave an awkward laugh.
"I'm sorry, I haven't been able to contact him yet, but I believe this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Shen Jiheng. You know that he and his father are sworn enemies, so how could I let him come here to cause trouble?"
Han Xi nodded: "I know it has nothing to do with him."
I was confused with anger just now, but now that I've calmed down and thought about it, if Shen Jiheng really wanted to do something, he wouldn't have waited until now, much less choose to disturb the peace so early in the morning.
Gu Beichen asked in a low voice, "So what do you plan to do now? If Uncle knows, then the entire Shen family will definitely know."
After a night of reflection, Han Xi calmed down considerably.
"Go with the flow and respond to each move as it comes."
"Well said, we'll always stand behind you."
Han Xi asked with a smile, "How did your discussion about studying go last time?"
"It's all settled, and we can go at the beginning of next month. I plan to take them to the school in a couple of days to get used to the environment. You know Yumo's condition, so it's still uncertain whether she can adapt."
The biggest challenge Han Xi faces is her daughter, who is not good at speaking and is withdrawn.
“You’re right. I’ll spend more time with her these next couple of days and observe her reactions.”
“I’ve talked to the teacher about this, and perhaps things will improve if she spends more time with children her own age.”
Han Xi looked at her daughter eating quietly at the table and nodded sadly: "I hope so."
Han Xi wanted to send her to school so that she could make more friends and have family by her side when she returned, so that with double the care, she could recover.
Han Xi had an important meeting in the afternoon, so she had to go back to the company to handle her business.
As soon as she entered the company, Peng Ling followed behind her with a folder, ready to report on the situation, and mentioned it first.
"President Han, President Shen is in your office."
Han Xi's heart tightened, and after calming herself down, she turned to look at Peng Ling again.
"From now on, report these kinds of things in advance."
Peng Ling looked blank, but seeing her serious expression, she quickly nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Since Shen Jiheng would come over whenever he had free time during this period, everyone had tacitly accepted their relationship and were used to his behavior in the office, so they naturally didn't inform Han Xi.
Han Xi took the folder from her hand and said, "Come in later, I need to talk to President Shen about something."
Peng Ling sensed that her expression was off today; could it be that she had argued with Shen Jiheng?
Han Xi walked to the office door, gripped the doorknob, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief before pushing it open.
Shen Jiheng sat quietly on the sofa, his usual arrogance replaced by a composed and unhurried demeanor.
The two looked at each other without speaking, until Han Xi broke the silence first.
What are you doing here?
Shen Jiheng picked up the documents on the coffee table, walked over to her, and calmly said, "There's a problem with the spokesperson you're looking for for your new product. Here's her information."
"...You came to see me just for this?"
Han Xi thought he had come about the child. She had imagined countless scenarios when she opened the door, but this was the last thing she thought of.
Shen Jiheng calmly said, "Then why do you think I am?"
Han Xi was speechless, unsure how to respond.
Shen Jiheng said earnestly, "All the packaging materials for your new products are from Ximei, and even some of the raw materials are provided by us. If there are any problems, we will also be affected."
Is it really just about discussing work-related matters?
Han Xi took the information from him with some skepticism, only to find that the artists she had selected had a long history of misconduct.
If this information is leaked after the new products are launched, it will not only affect the company's image, but also cause various serious problems such as the inability to sell the new products.
"How could this be? Are you sure these reports are true? I had someone investigate, and she doesn't have any bad habits."
"Those are just packaging for outsiders like you. You can't imagine how chaotic this industry is. Your most urgent task right now is to immediately withdraw her endorsement."
Shen Jiheng kept thinking about what he should do.
Now is not the time to try to reclaim the child; the most important thing is to regain Han Xi's trust and win her heart.
He must remain calm in order to achieve great things.
Han Xi was extremely anxious and frowned, saying, "But we've already signed the contract, and the official announcement is this weekend. Not only that, I've also prepared a press conference, advertisements and magazines, including promotional posters for major shopping malls..."
Han Xi became more and more anxious as she spoke, regretting that she had been deceived by that glamorous and gentle appearance, which was why she had chosen this person to be the spokesperson for the new product.
