Chapter 289 Almost Died of Anger
"Secondly, you dirtied my client's car and refused to pay for the cleaning, and even falsely accused my client of harassing your wife. After recovering this fee, you also need to publicly apologize to my client."
The man was stunned after hearing this. He wanted to speak, but Han Xi interrupted him with a gesture, saying that they had already used up their chance.
Han Xi originally wanted to settle things peacefully and resolve the matter in the simplest way possible, without going to court.
However, the other party's arrogant attitude and their stubborn refusal to admit their mistakes made Han Xi feel that they should be taught a lesson.
The woman retorted, "This...this is impossible! Are you all money-grubbing?"
Han Xi glared at them with sharp eyes and said coldly, "You can tell your story to the judge in court. You will receive a court summons soon, reminding you to find a lawyer as soon as possible. See you in court next time!"
After saying that, Han Xi didn't want to waste her breath on such a person and turned to leave. She believed that the judge would not allow any kind person to be harmed.
Seeing that things were not going well, the man chased after him and shouted in a panic, "Wait a minute, we were the ones who were rude just now. I agree to show him the proof."
Without turning his head, Han Xi said, "It's too late. If you want to withdraw the lawsuit, go ask my client to do so."
Han Xi wanted to let this arrogant person experience what it's like to ask for help, so he would know how difficult it is.
If they don't listen when you try to reason with them, you'll have to teach them a lesson.
Back in the car, Han Xi took a breath; she had almost been driven mad with anger.
Leng Yu asked, "Miss Han, how about I go and beat them up for you to vent your anger?"
Han Xi shook his head: "Forget it, beating this kind of person won't help. Let the law teach them a lesson. Believe me, what I just said will keep them in a panic for a while."
Leng Yu smiled and nodded. She had thought Han Xi was the kind of gentle and weak woman, but after a few days of getting to know her, she found that Han Xi was confident, decisive, and had a strong sense of justice. No wonder she was able to win the heart of her CEO.
Han Xi told Mr. Fang about the situation and assured him that they would definitely win the case.
Mr. Fang's attitude is still to prioritize harmony; if things end up ugly, no one will do good deeds anymore.
Han Xi handed over the decision-making power to him, and in the end, she would see what the other party did.
On the way back, Han Xi kept checking company information in the car. Suddenly, he received an email from Bo Siye. When he opened it, he saw that his base construction project had been reported and the bank could not lend money.
Bo Siye sent her the notification document and asked her to help analyze the situation.
Han Xi frowned slightly. She had already prepared the guarantee procedures and was just waiting for Bo Siye's notification, but she didn't expect this situation.
Bo Siye's signature also included a key phrase.
'I checked, and it was written by Shen Jiheng.'
Han Xi sighed, realizing that this guy knew he couldn't persuade her, so he resorted to underhanded tactics.
"Leng Yu, don't go back to the company, go to Shen's Group."
"good!"
Han Xi had told him long ago not to interfere in her and Bo Siye's affairs, and that even if there were risks, she should bear them herself. Why did he just not listen?
General Office of Shen's Group.
Qin Chuan excitedly knocked on the office door.
"President, Leng Yu just sent a message saying that Madam is downstairs. It seems she misses you."
Shen Jiheng gave an ugly smile. Han Xi wouldn't appear because he missed him, but because of what he had done to Bo Siye.
"Just tell them I'm not here."
"...Huh?"
Qin Chuan thought he had misheard, but then he saw Shen Jiheng turn off his computer and head straight for the break room. He was serious.
Before Qin Chuan could figure out what was going on, the office door was pushed open again. There was no one else who dared to act so arrogantly in the Shen Group except for Han Xi.
"Miss Han, what brings you here?"
Seeing that he was alone in the office, Han Xi asked curiously, "Where's Shen Jiheng? I heard he was at the company downstairs just now."
Seeing Han Xi's expression, as if she'd come to settle accounts, Qin Chuan understood why the president was behaving this way.
"Miss Han, is there anything important? You can tell me."
"I just want to find him."
"Oh, I see. But the president just received a phone call and rushed out. Didn't you run into him, Miss Han? He should be on the first floor by now."
Han Xi frowned and quickly took out her phone to call him, but just as she turned to walk to the door, she heard the phone ringing on the desk.
When Qin Chuan ran forward to hang up the phone, Han Xi had already turned around and saw his embarrassed expression.
Han Xi turned around, looked at the still-lit phone screen, and said, "You just said he took a call and went out, so why is the phone still here?"
Qin Chuan stammered, "Well, maybe the president was too busy and forgot."
Han Xi shook her head. Something was wrong; they were definitely hiding something from her.
Her gaze swept across the office, finally settling on the closed lounge door.
"Assistant Qin, since your CEO isn't here, you can go out first. I'll wait for him here."
Qin Chuan hesitated, "But there are many confidential documents in the office, and the president instructed that no one but him can stay here."
Han Xi went straight to the lounge and said bluntly, "In that case, I'll go to the lounge and wait. I promise I won't come out. Is that alright now?"
Before Qin Chuan could refuse, Han Xi had already turned the doorknob, but it was locked from the inside.
The scene paused again, and Qin Chuan awkwardly rubbed his forehead.
Han Xi knocked on the door and said, "Shen Jiheng, you don't need to hide anymore, I know you're in there."
Qin Chuan also stated, "President, I didn't say a word; Miss Han guessed it herself."
After a few seconds of silence, the door opened, and Shen Jiheng glared angrily at Qin Chuan.
"Mind your own business!"
If Qin Chuan hadn't said anything, Han Xi wouldn't have been sure. Now that Qin Chuan had said it directly, it confirmed that he was indeed inside.
Qin Chuan stepped back. This hadn't been rehearsed beforehand, so he had no idea how to handle the situation. Given the circumstances, it was best to retreat first.
Han Xi stepped forward and asked, "Was it you who caused trouble at the bank? And what about the complaints?"
Shen Jiheng grinned and said, "You're really smart, you got the news so quickly. Yes, all of this was done by me."
Han Xi sighed and glared at him with a reproachful look.
"Didn't I tell you this a long time ago? I'll take responsibility for it myself, and I don't need you to get involved. Why are you still doing this?"
“But I don’t want to see you fall into someone else’s trap; this plan is simply not going to work.”
If it weren't for Shen Jiheng's interference, Han Xi would have already vouched for Bo Siye.
If any problems arise with Bo Siye's project in the future, they will all be blamed on Han Xi. He might as well just cut off Han Xi's path.
“I’ve investigated it, and it’s not as bad as you say. Besides, their family has been in the education industry for generations, so I believe they can do a good job.”
“If he could really do a good job, he could attract a lot of investment, but in reality, no one is sponsoring them, and in the end, he even has you, a woman, step in to act as a guarantor. Don’t you think that’s too unreliable?”
Shen Jiheng couldn't believe that Bo Siye would die without Han Xi's help; he clearly wanted to drag her into the same boat, but he was determined not to let Bo Siye succeed.
