âSince we canât start with him, letâs change the direction. Mo Shu must have some beef with the general manager of Dun Yuan Technology Company, Zhang Ting. Letâs start with Zhang Ting.â
âOkay.â
Zhao Mian had yet to leave after reporting. This morning, Shi Bin and the eldest young madam reported to their respective positions at the same time. After Zhao Mian thought about it, she felt that she should report it.
However, just as she was hesitating about who to report to first, Shi Xiao looked up at her from the document. âIs Yuan Shu here?â
Zhao Mian keenly caught the meaning of Shi Xiaoâs words and thought to herself, seemed like the eldest young madam was more important.
Zhao Mian replied, âIâve already reported it and the relevant procedures have been completed. Iâve also collected the necessary items and placed them in her office.â
Shi Xiao asked with an impassive expression, âWhy didnât she come to the office when she reported to the company?â
Zhao Ming was wondering if she should answer this question because when she asked Yuan Shu if she wanted to go to the office to see Young Master Shi, Yuan Shuâs answer at that time was, âThereâs no need.â
Yuan Shuâs concise answer made Zhao Mian dare not to ask further.
Although the eldest young madam wasnât as decisive as the eldest young master, she was also a person who kept her word, so Zhao Mian didnât want to embarrass herself.
The fact that Yuan Shu didnât see Young Master on the first day of work was enough to cause everyone to discuss.
Everyone thought that Yuan Shu was going to work because she and Young Master were very close, so if they worked in the same place, they would have more opportunities to meet. However, when she came, she didnât see Young Master. Was there really a problem with their relationship as the rumors said?
Zhao Mian asked tentatively, âDo you need me to call Young Madam to come up?â
Shi Xiao buried his head in his documents as he replied, âNo need.â
Shi Xiao felt that there was something wrong with his emotions recently. He seemed to be led by the nose by this woman, and his emotions were always affected by her. He didnât know what he should do with Yuan Shu.
After the phone in the office rang, Shi Xiao picked up the phone and gestured for Zhao Mian to go out and continue working.
The person on the other end of the phone said, âYoung Master Shi, 1 wonder if youâre interested in working with me.â
That person sounded very confident, as if he was certain that Shi Xiao would agree.
Shi Xiao frowned slightly and asked with uncertainty, âJiang Chen?â
âThatâs right, itâs me. So Young Master Shi still remembers my voice. What an honor.â
The last thing Shi Xiao wanted to hear now was Jiang Chenâs voice, but he actually dared to call him and ask if he wanted to cooperate. He was simply out of his mind.
Shi Xiao said impatiently, âI donât think thereâs a need for the Shi and Jiang families to cooperate.â
Jiang Chen wasnât angry. Instead, he said, âCoincidentally, I think so too, but Iâm not working with you for the Jiang and Shi families, but for Yuan Shuâs sake.â
When Shi Xiao heard Yuan Shuâs name from another man, Shi Xiao felt very uncomfortable and he couldnât help but declare his sovereignty. âYoung Master Jiang, Yuan Shu is my wife. 1 believe that 1 have the ability to protect my wife, so you donât have to worry.â
Jiang Chen said, âYoung Master Shi, you donât have to be in a hurry to reject me. We both know the current situation. Tan Jing is no longer under the Jiang familyâs control. He actually dared to provoke the Shi family publicly. Do you think he did so purely out of impulse?â
âDefinitely not. There must be someone backing him. I just want to help you find this person as soon as possible. How you deal with him is your business. 1 just want everyone who hurt Yuan Shu to disappear.â
Shi Xiao hesitated. No matter what the reason was, at least they had the same goalâYuan Shu.
Similarly, Shi Xiao didnât want Yuan Shu to get implicated. Even though he didnât know what the mastermindâs motive was, he was certain that if they didnât stop him, the mastermind would only worsen. At that time, there was no telling what he would do to harm Yuan Shu.
Shi Xiao said, âThen I wish us a happy cooperation, but Young Master Jiang, to be honest, our cooperation will only last this once. Unless necessary, 1 donât want to have anything to do with you.â
Jiang Chen wasnât to be outdone. âMe too..â
