C29 Afterfear

Only then did Xue Hee look directly at his face. She noticed that his sword-like brows were deeply furrowed and his jaw was tightly set into a strong curve. His expression seemed to be covered with a layer of ice, so cold that it made people shiver.

"I …" Xue Hee was startled and realized that she had been caught red-handed. She clearly told him not to admit defeat, but under Han Qichen's forceful attitude, she still gave up.

She lowered her head and stood in front of him. Han Qichen could see her slightly messy hair. This small and delicate appearance caused a sudden wave to flash across his heart. The anger that was originally tightly accumulated in his chest immediately dissipated by quite a bit.

However, his face was still sullen as he stared at Xue Hee. "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation!"

Xue Hee gritted her teeth as her body trembled.

"I really need to go back and take care of things at the company!" She raised her head, a trace of stubbornness flashing across her eyes, "There's a problem with our company's materials, I'm the person in charge this time. If I don't go back, he won't be able to handle this matter!"

Han Qichen's expression didn't seem to change after hearing that, but a trace of something flashed in his eyes.

Actually, Han Qichen knew about the matter regarding Xue Hee's company. He let Assistant Jiang investigate the matter of her hunger strike last time. He knew that something had happened to her company, so Xue Hee's words were not surprising to Han Qichen.

However, knowing this, it did not mean that he would let Xue Hee go back to deal with it. "You think too highly of yourself. If the company lacks you, you won't do it!" Han Qichen said in a mocking tone. The disdain in his tone was very obvious.

"But I really have to go back!" Xue Hee said.

The woman's face was filled with determination, and her brows were filled with stubbornness. Especially her pair of clear eyes, in which there was an unwavering vow of not stopping until she reached her goal.

Han Qichen had no doubt that if he did not let her go now, she would definitely cause more trouble.

First it was hunger strike, then it was wall climbing. Then, should he jump down the next time? Thinking that she still had a child in her womb, the veins on Han Qichen's forehead couldn't help but bulge.

"I'll give you two days to settle that small issue with your company!" If you do not manage to do it well when the time is right, don't blame me for not showing mercy! " Han Qichen glanced at her coldly, then turned around without looking back.

Xue Hee stood dumbstruck on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

What did he just say? Did he allow himself to go back to the company to handle this matter? Did she hear wrongly? Xue Hee suddenly let out a faint smile. That's great! She could finally return to the company!

Xue Hee hurried back to her room, packed her things, and had the driver take her to the company.

At the same time, Han Qichen also got into his car to go back to the company.

The scenery outside the window continuously retreated. In Han Qichen's mind, he recalled the scene of Xue Hee standing on the wall just now. His heart inexplicably skipped a beat and he felt a sense of lingering fear.

Realizing this feeling, he couldn't help but frown.

"..."

After graduation, Xue Hee found a job herself, but didn't work at her home company. The company she works for is a small company that mainly produces building materials. Xue Hee worked for a few years, and because of serious work and good results, you've been promoted to project manager.

This time, the problem was a batch of materials that Xue Hee's team had been working on. They had discussed everything with the other company and even signed the contract. However, there was a problem with the materials that were sent to the security office. The other company was currently using this as an excuse to say that they had broken the contract and wanted compensation.

Xue Hee had just arrived at the company when her team members rushed up to her.

"Chief Xue, what should we do?"

Everyone looked at her with great anxiety, treating her as their pillar of support.

Xue Hee frowned slightly and comforted him, "Everyone, don't worry. There will be a way out before the time comes."

In truth, she was freely consoling herself with these words, but until now, she didn't know what else to say.

His gaze moved to a person in the crowd, Life once again said, "Little Zhang, come to my office!"

Little Zhang was the colleague who had called her earlier. He was one of her most capable assistants.

"Sister Xue, you have a strategy?" Little Zhang walked into the office and closed the door.

He was younger than Xue Hee, and after arriving at the company, he had often been taken care of by Xue Hee. Therefore, when there were only two of them, he would sometimes call her Xue Hee.

Seated on her seat, Xue Hee rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

"I guess there's a mole in this!" She looked at Little Zhang with a serious face and said, "This time, we have to capture that ghost. Otherwise, we won't be able to handle this matter!"

Little Zhang's expression changed, "Insider?"

"That's right!" That batch of materials was sent out after our repeated inspections. There should definitely be no problems with the materials! The only possibility is that someone did something to it before it was sent to the inspection or on the way there! " Xue Hee said firmly, a sharp look flashing across her eyes.
