Chapter 181 Are you jealous?
Han Xi remained silent.
His deep eyes stared at her for a while, and suddenly a low laugh escaped his lips.
Fang Li looked slightly embarrassed, "What are you laughing at?"
Han Xi tightened his arms and hugged her tightly, with the corners of his mouth raised helplessly.
Seeing Fang Li looking away unnaturally, he said in a pure voice, "Jealous, huh?"
"Who's jealous?"
"you."
"You're jealous, I'm not!"
Han Xi smiled maliciously: "You do."
Fang Li: "I said, I didn't!"
"Then tell me what she said to you."
"She said Sun Zhixin disappeared and asked if I did it, and also asked if it had anything to do with you!" Fang Li paused, and said in a sour tone: "She also said that you two have known each other since childhood, and that Director Sheng likes you very much and has always regarded you as his son-in-law."
"Han Xi, why didn't you tell me before that you had such a close female friend?"
"A close female friend?" Han Xi raised his eyebrows.
After a moment, the smile on the corners of his mouth gradually deepened. Looking at the glimmer in Fang Li's eyes, her noble eyebrows seemed to be dyed with warm colors by the sunlight, and she was gentler than ever before.
"You said you weren't jealous, Ah Li, but it turns out you can say one thing and mean another."
Fang Li's cheeks flushed, "I... I don't have that!"
For the first time, Han Xi pursed his lips and smiled foolishly.
Fang Li's ears turned red and she glared at him angrily.
At this moment, a series of high-heeled footsteps approached from behind.
Fang Li hadn't realized anything at first, but when she saw the smile in Han Xi's eyes suddenly disappear, and the warmth on his handsome face disappeared, returning to his usual indifference, she finally realized something.
His eyes moved slightly, and his expression changed. He turned his head and looked behind him.
"Han Xi."
"Miss Sheng?" Fang Li patted Han Xi's arm around her waist, stepped out of his arms and said.
Noticing her actions, Han Xi frowned in dissatisfaction.
Instead of loosening his grip, his other arm climbed up from her waist, directly wrapped around her shoulders, and pulled her into his arms again.
Fang Li glanced at him helplessly.
Coincidentally, Han Xi also lowered his eyes and looked at her leisurely.
Across from them, Sheng Qianrui silently watched the subtle interaction between the two, the smile on her lips growing fainter and fainter.
"I heard that Uncle Han introduced you to a young lady from the Feng family in Shenzhen some time ago. Could this be the young lady Feng?"
Miss Feng?
Fang Li wanted to laugh. He came to find her on his own initiative and they had even met in person, yet he was still pretending to be stupid?
What? Did he think that she didn't doubt Han Xi because of what she said before, so he wanted to drag another woman into the picture to flatter her?
No wonder some people say that the fate between people is destined by God.
People with similar magnetic fields will feel like they are old friends when they meet for the first time, and vice versa.
Fang Li thought that Sheng Qianrui was probably the person whose aura was extremely incompatible with hers.
The sense of superiority he gave her as soon as they met made her very uncomfortable. Later, he spoke to her in a questioning tone, and she was already speaking to her with the good manners she had accumulated over the past twenty years.
Now what?
He started to sow discord right in front of her?!
Fang Li looked at Sheng Qianrui with a cold gaze and pursed her lips: "I forgot to ask just now, the surname Sheng is not common. I wonder how Miss Sheng and the Shengshi Group in Beijing are..."
Sheng Qianrui raised her eyebrows proudly, "As you wish."
"Really? Then I'm quite curious, what criteria do you use to select and appoint the top executives of Shengshi Group?" Fang Li frowned in confusion.
Sheng Qianrui didn't understand, and a look of displeasure appeared on her noble face. "What do you mean?"
Fang Li looked at her, smiled, then quickly withdrew, shaking her head. "It's nothing special. I just feel... No wonder Shengshi Group's business has stagnated over the past two years. Even the real estate sector, which used to be the leader, has been shrinking. I see."
Sheng Qianrui was confused by what Fang Li said, but she was not stupid. She knew that Fang Li's words were obviously not good.
Shengshi Group's business has indeed shrunk rapidly in recent years. Otherwise, how could it lose a project like Taihu Bay to Han's? Until now, it can only beg Han's cooperation and get a share of the pie under Han's hands.
But she didn't understand how Fang Li knew all this.
Even if there are some problems with Shengshi Group's business, it is only known by some internal senior executives. As for the rest, only some large companies with which it has cooperative dealings can get a glimpse of it.
And what about Xu Fangli?
She is just a small self-employed person who runs a studio. How could she notice these problems?
Sheng Qianrui suddenly looked at the silent man standing next to Xu Fangli.
But she found that Han Xi's eyes were indifferent, and he was gently helping Fang Li to lift the hair on her shoulders behind her.
Sheng Qianrui's eyes were completely cold. She looked at Fang Li without any trace of face mask, and all turned into cold attack power. "What do you want to say?"
Fang Li didn't take it seriously, smiling faintly. "I feel sorry for Miss Sheng. No, that's not right. To be more precise, I feel sorry for Shengshi Group. Miss Sheng forgot me so quickly. Isn't it a pity that such a dignified Shengshi Group has a leader with such a bad memory?"
"Miss Xu, you think too highly of yourself!"
"Hey, Miss Sheng, are you thinking of me?"
Fang Li pretended to be surprised. Her pretty face was fair and translucent. Even the slightest raise of her eyebrows or pull of her lips was so lively that it dazzled people.
"you......!"
Sheng Qianrui's expression froze, and her red lips pursed as her face suddenly darkened.
The smile on Fang Li's lips gradually grew wider, and when she met her cold eyes, her gaze was indifferent and unyielding.
Suddenly, Fang Li felt a man holding her shoulder.
She turned her head and looked at the man who was sneaking around with a questioning look, but found that he was looking indifferently at Sheng Qianrui opposite her.
"It's President Sheng who thinks too highly of himself. The Taihu Bay project is a foregone conclusion. If Shengshi Group wants to cooperate, 30% of the construction project will still belong to you for President Sheng's sake. If you don't want to cooperate, President Sheng can just say so. Han's has many options."
"What do you mean, Han Xi? Are you threatening me?"
Sheng Qianrui's beautiful face was filled with disbelief. She looked at Han Xi with disappointment in her eyes. Without even looking at Fang Li beside her, she pointed and said, "Just for this woman?"
When she saw the finger pointing straight at her, the only smile left in Fang Li's eyes disappeared instantly.
However, before she could say anything, Han Xi, who was holding her, spoke before her.
His tone was cold and filled with a hint of displeasure as he warned, "It seems that Mr. Sheng not only has a poor memory, but also cannot control his body. In that case, please go back and tell Director Sheng that Shengshi Group will not be bothered with the Taihu Bay project. Please take Mr. Sheng to the hospital for a checkup during the extra time."
