Chapter 320 You really are narcissistic
Shen Jiheng noticed that she was staring at him with a scrutinizing gaze, and his brow twitched involuntarily. He asked in a very puzzled tone, "What are you doing? Don't tell me you really suspect me."
Han Xi walked up to him and circled around him twice.
“I didn’t suspect you. I just don’t understand why Minister Qiu and his wife insist that they saw you in person.”
"That's nonsense they're talking about."
“At first, I also thought that he deliberately said those things to confuse the public and drive a wedge between us. It wasn’t until Mrs. Qiu appeared that I believed what they said was true.”
Shen Jiheng was now confused. She said she believed in herself, but she also believed what they said.
"I don't understand what you mean."
Seeing his bewildered look, Han Xi smiled and asked, "Let me ask you first if you have any twin brothers or anything like that. Perhaps there are people in your family who look similar to you?"
Shen Jiheng knew she was seriously asking about this, and after thinking about it carefully, he shook his head.
He said confidently, "No, you probably can't find two people in Chongqing with my build and appearance."
Han Xi was both amused and exasperated. "You really are narcissistic. So it's possible you're not from your family."
Shen Jiheng crossed his arms and frowned, saying, "I still don't know what you're suspecting."
Han Xi beckoned him to the computer desk, where the title displayed on the page was "Case of Committing Crimes Through Disguise".
"Eight years ago, a sensational case of face-swapping and disguise shocked the country and caused a great uproar at home and abroad. The murderer was a college art student with superb makeup skills and worked as a special effects makeup artist on film crews."
Shen Jiheng vaguely remembered what she said.
"Was it because a few popular actors died back then that it caused such a big uproar?"
Han Xi nodded: "It's this case. Back then, Qianqian and I even went with the boss to investigate it. We learned that the murderer used his superb special effects skills to change his face and commit the crime, which is why we couldn't find him."
Han Xi has been thinking about this question for the past two days: why was Minister Qiu able to speak so righteously about seeing Shen Jiheng?
Now that Mrs. Qiu has told her this as a secret, it further confirms that such a person does indeed exist.
If he isn't Shen Jiheng's twin brother, then someone else is using the same methods to do bad things behind his back.
Shen Jiheng suddenly understood after hearing what she said.
"So you're saying that someone disguised themselves as me and fooled them."
Han Xi nodded: "Yes, in Chongqing, as long as you step in, who would dare to resist? But Bai Xue is real."
Shen Jiheng's face darkened. "I noticed something was off about her a while ago. She tried every means to get into your company but failed, so she came to me for help."
"So you agreed?"
Han Xi didn't care whether she could work at Han Shu Group or not; as long as you were qualified, there was no problem.
I just didn't expect her to go and beg Shen Jiheng.
"Only by keeping her under our noses can we see what she really wants to do."
Han Xi felt a little displeased and turned her head away from him.
Shen Jiheng looked down at her unhappy expression and leaned over to ask, "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
Han Xi rolled her eyes at him and pushed him aside.
“We’re talking business now. I’m not in the mood for jokes. Mrs. Qiu said she saw you and Bai Xue together, so she definitely knows who you are.”
Shen Jiheng stepped forward and put his hand on her shoulder: "Alright, don't be angry. I'll have someone arrest her and interrogate her right away."
Judging from the hatred in his tone, he probably didn't expect that after he let Bai Xue go, she would still betray him behind his back.
Han Xi shook his head: "No need for now. Minister Qiu implicated you but didn't mention Bai Xue. There might be some inside story. If I let him go now, he will definitely contact the person behind the scenes."
Shen Jiheng couldn't help but pinch her cheek and praise her, "Your way of doing things is becoming more and more like mine."
Han Xi slapped his hand away, pretending to be cold.
"Don't lump us together. I'm no match for President Shen's intelligence and talent."
Shen Jiheng shook his head helplessly. When this woman got jealous, she was on a completely different level from him; he simply couldn't afford to offend her.
"Alright, let's get back to the point. If I'm not mistaken, you definitely want to put a tracker on him."
"That's inevitable. They even implanted a chip in his body so they can find him no matter where he goes."
Shen Jiheng gave a thumbs up. "No wonder you were confident in letting him go back. But are you really not going to pursue the matter of his betrayal?"
"More than anything, I want to know who's behind this. What you need to do now is keep an eye on Bai Xue and prevent her from fleeing to avoid punishment."
"But I'm worried about your situation."
Han Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, with Leng Yu protecting me, I won't be in any danger."
Shen Jiheng sighed: "It seems I've created an obstacle for myself. If she weren't there, you wouldn't have refused my protection."
Han Xi pushed him by the back to the door.
"We'll split into two groups to do this. You keep an eye on Bai Xue's movements, and I'll keep an eye on Minister Qiu. We'll notify him immediately if anything happens."
Han Xi's overly serious attitude made it difficult for Shen Jiheng to refuse, so he had no choice but to nod.
"Okay, remember to be careful."
Han Xi smiled slightly and winked to reassure him.
Shen Jiheng breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Han Xi has protection at the company and is guarded in the lobby, there shouldn't be any danger.
"I'll be going now. Remember to let me know before you make any decisions in the future."
"knew."
This person is getting more and more long-winded; she has to shoo him away several times before he'll leave.
But when Shen Jiheng actually left, Han Xi felt an indescribable sense of loneliness.
She was acutely aware that her feelings for him were growing stronger, to the point that she would get jealous over things like Bai Xue.
After experiencing so much, if she still values love so much, she's really too superficial.
Han Xi turned on the tracker and saw that Minister Qiu was still at home. Logically, he should have gone to meet the person behind the scenes soon. Why hadn't he taken action yet? Could it be that he had discovered something?
Suddenly, there was an urgent knocking on the door, and Leng Yu quickly opened it.
Seeing her tense expression, Han Xi asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"Mr. Han, the president was hit by a car in the parking garage."
Han Xi jumped up and strode over.
"What happened? How did you get hit by a car so suddenly? Is it serious?"
"Miss Shen was driving. According to Assistant Qin, two cars rushed towards them as soon as they arrived at the underground parking garage. They were going too fast and they didn't have time to avoid them, injuring three people."
Han Xi rushed out anxiously. This Shen Mingzhu was truly ruthless; she actually dared to harm her own brother.
"Have you caught them?"
Leng Yu followed closely behind, replying urgently, "We didn't catch them; we drove off right away."
Han Xi took a deep breath, feeling like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
"Did you call an ambulance?"
"I've already called them, they're on their way."
Han Xi silently prayed that he would be alright; she never wanted anyone around her to get hurt again.
The two ran to the underground parking garage, where security personnel evacuated vehicles to prevent further injury.
When Han Xi saw Shen Jiheng lying on the ground, his heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, and his steps felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
