Chapter 352 Just How Boring Is She?
It's obvious that Shen Jiheng's current behavior is deliberately provoking and angering people, and given Han Xi's personality, she will definitely retaliate.
However, Han Xi took the opportunity to lean closer and took off her coat.
"Mr. Shen, take whatever you want. We're all so familiar with each other, I don't mind."
Shen Jiheng's fingers, which were resting on her collar, froze. He hadn't expected Han Xi to say something like that.
He curled his lips into a wicked smile, grabbed Han Xi's hand and threw him onto the sofa, expertly loosening his tie.
"Since you've brought this to my doorstep, I won't be polite."
After saying that, he pressed down on Han Xi's shoulders and kissed her, his hands restlessly slipping inside her clothes.
Something's not right; this isn't what Han Xi wanted.
She deliberately complied, not following Shen Jiheng's usual pattern; he just never took the conventional route.
"Shen Jiheng, wait a moment. This is the office. Someone will be coming in soon."
Shen Jiheng slightly lifted his eyelids, a half-smile on his face, and said, "What, you said you don't mind, but you're afraid of being seen? That's no fun. I'm already on fire, do you expect me to find someone else?"
Is he serious?
Knowing full well that these words would upset her, why did you insist on hurting her feelings?
Shen Jiheng sighed: "Forget it, this is really boring. Han Xi, you have no idea how dull you really are."
Just how boring is she?!
Whether back then or now, in their relationship, it's always Shen Jiheng who calls the shots, and it's always her who decides what she can do for herself.
Just as Shen Jiheng was about to stand up, Han Xi suddenly grabbed his tie and kissed his thin lips fiercely.
Didn't he say he was boring? Han Xi was going to show him that as long as she was happy, she could have as many fun activities as she wanted.
Shen Jiheng was completely taken aback by Han Xi's reaction. He reached out to push Han Xi away, but Han Xi didn't give him the chance.
This uncharacteristic and wild side of Han Xi was something he had never seen before, leaving him completely defenseless...
As dusk settled, looking out the large glass window, the streets were bustling with traffic and neon lights were flashing, creating a scene as beautiful as a dream world.
Shen Jiheng opened his eyes and looked at the sleeping person in his arms. She seemed very tired and must not have slept well for the past two days.
Shen Jiheng gently carried her to the lounge. He didn't know why he had broken down at this moment after holding back for so long. He should have rejected her.
"Don't make me worry anymore. Take good care of yourself."
As he spoke, he gently placed Han Xi on the bed, reaching out to stroke her face, but ultimately withdrew his hand and turned to leave.
The moment the door closed, Han Xi opened her eyes. She could clearly feel Shen Jiheng's intense love. What was he afraid of?
He is now intentionally distancing himself from everyone and terminating his contract, simply to draw a clear line between himself and others.
But his mistake was being overconfident, thinking that doing these things would make her believe him?
The next day, Han Xi returned to the company early to deal with the current problems.
Now West America is forcibly demanding the termination of the contract and refusing to produce packaging materials anymore, even if she's angry, it's no use.
In order not to affect the new product launch, Han Xi had to find new packaging materials as soon as possible.
As soon as she arrived at the office, Qin Chuan took out several documents for her to look at.
"Mr. Han, I have selected three suitable packaging companies for you to address the current problems."
Han Xi looked at him with surprise. She had originally planned to discuss this issue with him, but she didn't expect that he had already taken care of it.
She knew Qin Chuan was very capable in the past, but meeting him in person was another matter. He truly deserves to be Shen Jiheng's most capable subordinate.
However, Han Xi still had some concerns.
"I'm still wondering if I should talk to West America again, since we've been working together for several years and we have a good understanding."
Qin Chuan shook his head: "Since the other party has this attitude, President Han, there is no need to waste any more time. I have already had them send over samples. The quality is no worse than that of Ximei, and the supply is plentiful."
Han Xi cast an admiring glance at him; his decisive and efficient demeanor reminded her of Shen Jiheng.
“You’re right. You know more about packaging materials than I do. I’ll listen to you.”
"President Han trusts me, and I will definitely not let you down."
Han Xi smiled faintly, but she knew that someone would definitely regret losing such an excellent assistant.
"For this new product launch, I want to make it a little special so that the public can experience the flavor firsthand. Does Assistant Qin have any good suggestions?"
After thinking for a moment, Qin Chuan said, "Then let's use a glass greenhouse for display, which is both beautiful and poetic."
He really understands this point. Han Xi smiled with satisfaction and said, "Continue."
“We place the perfumes in different rooms and drip the raw materials onto the flowers so that people can personally experience the scent, which is a very romantic thing for girls.”
Han Xi gave him a thumbs up, "Assistant Qin, you are really all-rounder. You can even come up with these interesting ideas. Let's do it according to your suggestion. You will be in charge of this press conference."
Qin Chuan nodded confidently: "Leave it to me, no problem."
Han Xi certainly believed in his abilities, and seeing that he was in good spirits, she wondered if he harbored any resentment towards Shen Jiheng.
"Assistant Qin, I have a question for you."
Seeing Han Xi's hesitant expression, Qin Chuan smiled and said, "You probably want to ask me if I'm upset that the president was so ruthless to me, driving away his assistant who had been with him for over ten years."
Han Xi looked at him in surprise. Could this person have mastered mind reading? He could even think of these questions.
Qin Chuan smiled wryly and said, "Of course it's his fault, but I know it was never his intention."
"You also have doubts?"
It turns out that Qin Chuan wasn't the only one who thought Shen Jiheng had a problem; he noticed it too.
Qin Chuan nodded, took a deep breath and said, "I know him better than you do. Even if I made a big mistake, he wouldn't let me go. He would only give me a few words of advice. Why would he fire me?"
Han Xi chimed in, "I've been thinking about this for the past two days, wondering if it's related to his injury. I've asked around and hope to get some results as soon as possible."
Once the two started talking about this topic, Qin Chuan voiced his doubts.
"Do you remember the day the president vomited blood? He insisted it was a nosebleed, but I remember I wasn't mistaken. It was from that moment that the president became absent-minded, and his personality changed drastically afterward."
Han Xixin was suddenly pinched by something, and for a moment she felt as if she couldn't breathe.
These are the things she fears most, and bringing them up now only confirms her suspicions.
"The dean refused to tell me the truth; he must be hiding something."
Qin Chuan agreed, saying, "I also arranged for a hacker to break into the dean's computer, but unfortunately we couldn't find anything. I suspect the dean deliberately hid it."
The two got along better and better as they talked, and Han Xi added, "He kept it so secret because he didn't want us to know, and the fact that you can help me at Han Shu Group now is probably what he wanted to see."
Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Aren't we following the path he wanted us to take? I believe he should be very pleased."
After they finished speaking, they looked at each other, their eyes filled with worry.
Anyone with a brain could see that Shen Jiheng's sudden arrangement was simply to pave the way for Han Xi, and that he could no longer accompany her on this journey.
