Because she had to go to work, Jian Xi got up early.
Her parents were anxiously waiting downstairs for her to join them for breakfast.
Jian Xi ran her fingers through her hair; her uniform felt sowhat uncomfortable.
Looking up, she t the worried gazes of her parents and elder brother.
Jian Xi assud they were worried about her adjusting to work at an international corporation. "Don’t worry, Mom and Dad, I’m just coasting; it won’t be very hard," she reassured them.
"No! You must work hard," Father Jian insisted.
Jian Xi was taken aback for a mont. Jian Mingcheng looked at Jian’s Mother and asked in a voice only they could hear, "Does our younger sister really have depressive delusional disorder?"
Jian’s Mother whispered, "I called Wan Yu to confirm. What Si Yuhuan said is true; Xixi does have a tendency towards depressive delusions. We just don’t know how severe it is. It seems we need to find an opportunity to take her to the hospital for a check-up."
Jian Mingcheng, a man of serious temperant, nodded cautiously before turning to Jian Xi. "The company has arranged for a health check-up, Xixi. Co for it tomorrow."
"What?" Jian Xi was completely confused. Weren’t her parents and brother worried she would feel out of place at Haohan Group?
Why are they suddenly asking to go for a health check-up?
Are company benefits really this good nowadays, arranging check-ups anyti?
First Si Yuhuan made arrangents, and now Big Brother too...
Of course, she couldn’t go; otherwise, the child in her stomach...
Jian Xi smiled faintly. "Okay, I’ll definitely go."
Jian’s Mother gave Jian Mingcheng a thumbs-up.
Their eldest son is truly astute, coming up with such a plan.
She had absolutely no idea this was Jian Xi’s usual tactic for handling such situations.
After a few casual responses, Jian Xi dashed off. She got into the sports car her parents had just gifted her and drove leisurely to the Haohan Group building.
The security staff had already been notified. Seeing her arrive, they imdiately approached to help with parking.
"Madam."
Yan Qing approached from nearby. "You’re finally here. Today is the routine Monday morning eting. Director Si isn’t here, so please preside over it."
"What?"
Jian Xi was hurried inside.
Yan Qing was sweating profusely. "The boss has gone to visit Dr. Sernosen, so we can only trouble you to handle things temporarily. But please rest assured, it’s just a routine eting. Nothing troubleso, very simple."
Yeah right!
As it turned out, Jian Xi truly witnessed the strength of Haohan Group. The division of work was clear, and the departnt leaders possessed extraordinary capabilities. Everyone perford their duties competently and were clearly intelligent. This was far from the open strife and secret rivalry depicted in TV shows and novels. Instead, there was more mutual help and cooperation. This was especially true for the leading supervisors and general managers, who were approachable and polite, offering guidance and generously sharing their knowledge.
Jian Xi sat in her chair the entire ti, quietly watching them deliver their reports and summaries. The only words to describe it were "spectacular" and "impressive."
Truly the number one comrcial group in China.
Si Yuhuan’s leadership and managent skills truly commanded respect.
It was sowhat understandable why, in her previous life, the Jian Group couldn’t withstand even a single blow from him.
Such a giant in the business world would make anyone feel powerless to compete, wouldn’t it?
Throughout the eting, Jian Xi only managed a faint smile, continuous nods, and sounds of agreent. She honestly didn’t know what else she could do.
Only when everyone had finished reporting and left did she finally let out a deep breath.
「At Sernosen’s villa, Si Yuhuan was still not permitted entry.」
And the only one with the right to enter the inner courtyard was Jiang Qing.
The servant attending to him poured tea and water, surprised to find the renowned magnate fixated on a surveillance video on his smartphone screen, completely engrossed. Glancing over, the servant saw a professionally dressed beauty on the screen.
This beauty possessed an aura surpassing even female celebrities; she was both noble and beautiful.
"Have you had enough?" Si Yuhuan asked, looking up coldly.
The servant, terrified, hurriedly nodded and lowered his head.
He put away his phone, concealing the hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Just then, Jiang Qing erged from her drug trial. She was weak and deathly pale, having to lean on the wall to walk.
Dr. Sernosen coldly instructed her, "For the next few days, you are not allowed to eat any greasy or stimulating food. Go back now."
His tone was as if he were speaking to an animal, devoid of any sympathy.
Jiang Qing clenched her fists tightly. She had just experienced what could only be described as a fate worse than death.
Dr. Sernosen’s dicine is too potent; I barely made it through.
She took a deep look at Si Yuhuan, who stood not far away, and clenched her jaw. This is all for you. If you dare fail , I will make you pay back a hundredfold.
"Yuhan."
Her voice was delicate as she beckoned, looking as if she were about to faint.
Si Yuhuan, reacting quickly, supported her waist and held her in his arms. "How are you?"
This was sothing he should have done, but Jiang Qing had been one step ahead of him and had taken Dr. Sernosen’s dicine. This dicine was one of a kind; whoever took the first stage of the dication would have to continue with it.
"For you, I’m willing to do anything, Yuhan. I do this willingly. You’re the richest man, the bellwether of the entire business world in China. Your health is more important than anything else."
A trace of guilt flickered in Si Yuhuan’s eyes, and his tone softened slightly. "Thank you."
Jiang Qing’s eyes lit up. His attitude had finally softened considerably.
"Between you and , you never need to use those words."
Si Yuhuan didn’t want to be indebted to anyone. "What do you want? You can ask —jewelry, luxury goods, or even money."
Jiang Qing choked up, her face anguished. "In your eyes, am I really that kind of woman, one who craves wealth and covets money?"
"It’s not like that." Si Yuhuan sighed. "If you don’t want anything, my conscience won’t be at ease."
Jiang Qing’s red lips curled. He still dislikes owing anyone anything, doesn’t he?
"Yuhan, I don’t want anything." Jiang Qing placed her entire hand on his shoulder, her touch gentle and infinitely alluring. "If you insist on giving sothing, then let work at Haohan Group!"
"Work at Haohan Group?" Si Yuhuan frowned deeply.
"Yes, work at Haohan Group. Give a respectable job, any position will do. Then one day, when you grow tired of , it will be easier for to find a job at another company."
Jiang Qing laughed self-deprecatingly and brushed her bangs aside. "You know, there’s no place for in the entertainnt industry anymore. My reputation is completely ruined. If I don’t have a decent job on my résumé, who will take in the future?"
"ngng, I won’t let you..."
Jiang Qing pressed her fingertip on Si Yuhuan’s lips. "Yuhan, haven’t you noticed how indifferent you’ve beco towards lately?"
Her eyelids drooped slightly. "No man remains interested in a woman forever. I only trust myself."
She was pressuring Si Yuhuan to make her a promise, but she hadn’t expected him to say, "Alright, since you’ve already decided, I agree."
For a mont, Jiang Qing didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.
Si Yuhuan was unexpectedly not making her any promises.
Jian Xi, it’s all your fault! If you hadn’t seduced Si Yuhuan, he wouldn’t treat like this. Just you wait. In Haohan Group, I’ll make you understand who the real Mrs. Si is!
