Chapter 272 Feelings Disappear the Next Day
Han Xi was aware that this investment carried risks, including Bo Siye's insistence on developing in this direction, which would lead to many problems in the future.
But these were all his choices, and Han Xi had promised to help him, so he couldn't go back on his word.
Bo Siye's eyes were full of gratitude, and he laughed heartily, "Han Xi, thank you so much. It's a pity that I can't treat you to a meal in my current condition. We'll definitely treat you properly once I'm discharged from the hospital."
"I should be the one treating you to dinner. You need to get better soon; there are still many things waiting for you to do." Seeing a smile on his face made Han Xi feel gratified.
Bo Siye made a thumbs-up gesture, "Don't worry, I'll get better soon."
Han Xi nodded with a smile, and the two chatted about the mortgage. Half an hour later, the nurse reminded her to take her medicine and rest before Han Xi left.
The next morning, Han Xi went to the airport to see him off.
Zhuo Qingqian looked terrible and was very weak. She could only stand by leaning on Gu Beichen's shoulder.
Han Xi felt terrible, wondering if her condition would improve abroad, or if it would cause her to suffer for a few more days.
Seeing her expression, Zhuo Qingqian smiled and said, "Xi Xi, don't look at me like that. We just went out to try it out, and we did make an effort."
Zhuo Qingqian knew exactly how much the Gu family wanted this child. Now that she had taken this step, if she still couldn't handle it, then they had nothing to say.
Han Xi stepped forward and hugged her: "You've worked hard. You must stay calm and not run around."
"I know, you're like a busybody." Zhuo Qingqian couldn't help but pinch her cheek after saying that.
Han Xi smiled and looked at Gu Beichen, instructing him, "Brother, take good care of her after you get there, and let us know as soon as you hear any news."
Gu Beichen waved his hand confidently and replied, "I promise you I will take good care of you. Just wait for our good news. I believe everything will be alright."
Compared to the complex expressions on the faces of the three, only Shen Jiheng appeared remarkably calm.
He simply said a few words: "Have a safe trip."
It's already a miracle that he came with Han Xi; he only gets involved in things related to Han Xi.
Gu Beichen cast a grateful glance at him. Last night, Han Xi had already told him that all of this was Shen Jiheng's idea. That indifferent CEO Shen had helped him a lot this time.
"It's almost time, you guys go back, I need to take Qianqian to register."
Han Xi nodded reluctantly: "Brother, remember to contact me when you arrive."
Shen Jiheng moved over and put his arm around her shoulder, unable to help but laugh, "Aren't you being too sentimental? They're just going abroad for a check-up, it's not like they're going to separate."
They never see Han Xi react like this when they're apart, so why is he so affectionate towards other people?
Han Xi was amused by his words and said with a wry smile, "What you said is funny. I'm just worried about them. I can't bear to see my good friends leave. I miss them even if it's just for a day."
Shen Jiheng crossed his arms and said, "What about me? If I also go abroad for a while, would you miss me?"
Han Xi turned and walked back, saying, "No!"
Shen Jiheng didn't believe her and pressed her further, "Are you telling the truth? If one day I leave you, you won't miss me?"
Han Xi didn't want to discuss such a boring topic with him, but Shen Jiheng insisted, and they continued to discuss it back in the car.
"Han Xi, answer me honestly, you really won't miss it?"
Han Xi glanced at him and asked curiously, "I remember you've never liked empty talk, so why do you still believe these things now?"
Shen Jiheng said, "People change. Haven't you noticed how much I've changed for you?"
Han Xi avoided his gaze and replied, "I didn't ask you to change it; it was your own choice."
Shen Jiheng looked ahead dejectedly. It seemed that he was trying to do one thing every day: make Han Xi like him.
It seems that every time she falls in love, that feeling disappears the next day, so Shen Jiheng needs to find ways to get close to Han Xi every day and make her fall in love with him again.
Sometimes he would worry about what would happen if Han Xi really stopped loving him one day.
Seeing Shen Jiheng's gloomy expression, Han Xi shifted her body and sat down in front of him. While he was wondering, Han Xi leaned on his shoulder.
"I'm a little tired, can I lean on your shoulder for a bit?"
Shen Jiheng smiled knowingly and leaned his head down.
Actually, the current situation isn't bad. At least Han Xi is still by his side, and that's enough.
The car arrived at the foot of the Han Shu Group building, and Han Xi looked up at him.
"I'll have more time now. I'm already arranging the travel itinerary you mentioned last time."
"I'll be waiting for your message anytime."
Han Xi smiled and nodded as she got out of the car. In fact, she understood all of Shen Jiheng's thoughts, but she was deliberately avoiding them.
Watching Han Xi's departing figure, Qin Chuan reminded her, "President, don't you need to tell Miss Han about Bai Xue starting work at Shen's?"
Shen Jiheng's gaze remained fixed on Han Xi, and he replied casually.
"No need, she won't be jealous about that kind of thing anymore."
Hearing the president's confident reply, Qin Chuan shrugged, deciding to consider it an overreaction.
However, Shen Jiheng's expression quickly darkened again, and a cold glint flashed in his dark eyes, making Qin Chuan's scalp tingle.
Shen Jiheng said, "Go and contact the bank and tell them not to lend money to Bo Siye."
Although Han Xi didn't say it, these things had already reached his ears.
He had long advised Han Xi not to act as a guarantor, but he still couldn't resist Bo Siye's persuasion.
That makes sense; this man is too shrewd, he would definitely try to get Han Xi to agree to act as his guarantor.
Since Han Xi can't refuse, then these matters will be left to him to handle.
Qin Chuan nodded: "Understood, I guarantee I'll thwart his plan."
Given Shen Jiheng's influence in Chongqing, he certainly has that kind of ability.
As long as he causes trouble, Bo Siye won't be able to borrow a single penny from the bank.
When Han Xi returned to his office, the detective called to tell him that Minister Qiu had been secretly purchasing raw materials, and that these were special materials that Han Xi had deliberately written down in his notebook.
It seems he intends to give it a try, but unfortunately he has no idea how serious the consequences would be if he actually made it according to the recipe Han Xi gave him.
Han Xi would wait until he reaped what he sowed before coming to her and telling him the outcome.
Knock knock...
Peng Ling knocked on the office door and walked in with the documents in her hand.
"President Han, this is the list of raw materials that the R&D department needs to purchase. Please take a look. Minister Qiu said he has already sent the detailed list to your email."
Han Xi took the materials and examined them carefully. They were all common raw materials. Minister Qiu had never had any problems with the company's research and development, which was why she felt so at ease.
He seems to be in a hurry for this new product; the plan was only proposed yesterday, and he's already starting to prepare the raw materials today.
That makes sense. Han Shu Group possesses the most advanced R&D technology in the country, so he would definitely want to create Cloud Love here.
Han Xi signed the document and handed it to her, smiling as he said, "Tell Minister Qiu that if there's anything else he needs, just submit it. I'm really looking forward to his finished product."
