Chapter 158 - Let’s Have a Good Talk

Shen Hanxing nodded innocently as if she didn’t see the contempt on Ji Mei’s face. She said, “Then let’s do it next Monday.”

Ji Mei happily agreed and left briskly in her high heels. After she left, Ji Yan’s figure appeared behind Shen Hanxing. He wrapped his arm around her and bent down slightly. He said, “It’s time to tighten the net, my wife.”

“Mr. Ji, are you done with your meeting?” Shen Hanxing smiled slightly and turned her head to look at him. She continued, “There’s no need to rush. Let’s take it slow and take care of them one by one.”

Chen Liang, who had followed Ji Yan downstairs, decisively turned his back to Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing. He deeply felt that he should not have followed the boss downstairs. However, he came downstairs because he had something important to report.

After a while, he braced himself and went downstairs. Chen Liang said in a low voice, “Boss, there’s some movement from Dr. Liu Zhibai. His father, Liu Kui, is currently working in the Ji Corporation. He was promoted by Cheng Songyang. Some time ago, Liu Zhibai divorced his wife. His ex-wife took the child to M City. She went to the best location in M City and paid for the house in full.”

M City was considered the second largest city in the country. The economy over there had developed rapidly in the past few years, and the housing price in that city had risen to an astonishing level. It would cost at least tens of millions to buy a house in the best location. Liu Zhibai was a family doctor, but his ex-wife could buy a house in M City and pay for it in full... Where did he get this kind of money from? Was it from his father, Liu Kui, who was working as a manager in the Ji Corporation, with an annual salary of around one million dollars? Or was it Liu Zhibai’s salary as a family doctor?

Ji Yan’s eyes were cold. He ordered, “Invite Liu Zhibai over. I want to have a good talk with him.”

“Yes, sir!” Chen Liang was frightened by Ji Yan’s aura and could not help but lower his head in response. The weather in S City was about to change.

In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed. It happened to be New Year’s day on Monday, and the entire S City was filled with New Year’s celebratory atmosphere. The children of the Ji family were at home having lessons with their tutors, while Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan went out at the same time.

Outside the door, Ji Yan raised his hand to help Shen Hanxing adjust her shawl. There was a hint of gentleness on his usually cold face. “I wish you all the best, my wife. I’ll wait for you to come back and have dinner together.”

“I also wish you success.” Shen Hanxing’s face, which was covered in exquisite makeup, revealed a stunning smile.

The assistant, Chen Liang, and Han Qi had been waiting at the side for a long time. After Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing parted ways, they also followed their respective bosses into their cars and left. The two cars drove in completely different directions.

At the entrance of the foreign trade company, there was already a black car parked there, as if waiting for something. It wasn’t until Shen Hanxing’s car drove over that the door of the black car opened. Three young men in suits came out of the black car with calm expressions on their faces.

The man walking in front of the other two was slightly older. He looked to be in his early thirties and had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. He took the initiative to shake hands with Shen Hanxing. He said, “Ms. Shen, you’ll be working hard today.”

“That sentence should be directed to you all,” Shen Hanxing said with a smile. These people were all pulled over by Han Qi as they were Han Qi’s seniors and juniors. All of them were very capable.

After shaking hands, she raised her head and looked at the towering office building in front of her. Her beautiful eyes silently stared at the floor of the company where Cheng Dong and Ji Mei were. After a long time, she withdrew her gaze and calmly said, “Let’s go.”

Naturally, no one had any objections. They followed Shen Hanxing into the elevator and went upstairs.

“Ms. Shen, welcome, welcome.” Cheng Dong’s smile became even more enthusiastic as they met again. “Long time no see. You are becoming more and more beautiful, Ms. Shen.”

Shen Hanxing shook hands with him perfunctorily, then took off her sunglasses. She impatiently said, “It’s a cold day, let’s not waste time. Let’s start early.”

Cheng Dong had long been accustomed to her arrogance. The smile on his face deepened. As he made way for them, he stretched out his hand. “Okay, Ms. Shen, please come in.”

Ji Mei stood at the side and looked at the people behind Shen Hanxing. She asked, “Hanxing, are these people from your finance department?” Her gaze swept over the people Shen Hanxing had brought with her. She saw that other than the man in his thirties who looked slightly more composed, the others had youthful faces. They looked as though they had just graduated from university. She immediately felt relieved. In order to show that she was thinking of Shen Hanxing, she even pretended to be worried. Ji Mei asked, “You’ve only brought a few people here. Isn’t that too little?”

“Is that still too little?” Shen Hanxing turned her head in surprise. She pointed at Han Qi and the men beside her as she introduced them, “These guys are here to handle the things with you and look at all kinds of reports.” Her slender and fair fingers landed on the other two young women. “These two are here to chat with me to relieve my boredom.”
