Reborn back to the day I descended the mountain, Miss Ji, I will take responsibility for you!

Ye Chen smiled and said, "If you want to know, you can, but I'm going to my room to sleep."

Ji Ruoyu was about to refuse when she heard this, but then she suddenly remembered something and nodded, "Okay."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was overjoyed and said, "It's a deal! Whoever goes back on their word is a little dog. Pinky promise!"

Seeing Ye Chen's childish behavior, Ji Ruoyu was speechless, but she still reached out and made a pinky promise with Ye Chen.

"Now, you can tell me, right?" Ji Ruoyu asked again, genuinely curious.

How did Ye Chen figure out that there were prohibited drugs in the other car?

You should know that in China, involvement with illegal drugs almost always means certain death.

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "That woman's condition indicates that she has been using illegal drugs for at least five years."

"These kinds of people have a lot of hidden agendas, which is why they choose this woman—she's easy to control."

"After all, people like that will obey your every word as long as you give them medicine."

"However, there is a great uncertainty with such people, which is that they are difficult to deal with if they commit hidden crimes."

"So this woman must have given him some drugs beforehand to keep him from having sex for a short period of time."

"And just in case, the other party will definitely need to prepare some as well."

"However, I would never carry something so deadly on my person."

"So the only place they can put it is in the car."

After listening to Ye Chen's analysis, Ji Ruoyu nodded, and her gaze towards Ye Chen took on a different meaning.

What he didn't know was that, besides logical reasoning, Ye Chen also had a cheat code.

Using his mental senses, Ye Chen had already determined that there were contraband items in the car.

The car returned to the manor, and Ye Chen hurriedly went into Ji Ruoyu's room.

Ye Chen wanted to get used to the comfort of the bed beforehand, but before he could even get on, he was already on the bed.

Ji Ruoyu stopped him, saying, "Wait a moment, let me tidy up."

Upon seeing this, Ye Chen immediately smiled, but he quickly froze.

Then I saw Ji Ruoyu take off the bedding and put the pillow on the sofa.

Ye Chen asked in confusion, "Wife, what are you doing?"

Ji Ruoyu said matter-of-factly, "It's nothing, it's just that if you're going to sleep in the room, I'll move my things and I'll sleep on the sofa."

Ye Chen was stunned. Seeing Ye Chen's expression, Ji Ruoyu smiled slightly and said, "You said you would sleep in the room, but I didn't say I would sleep in the room with you."

"Damn it!" Ye Chen was immediately annoyed that Ji Ruoyu was so uncivilized.

Then, he silently put the bedding that Ji Ruoyu had just put away back on.

"Then forget it. I think sleeping on the sofa is fine. You can sleep in the bed."

Seeing this, Ji Ruoyu pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I'm so embarrassed to say that, but we made a pinky promise."

"I can't possibly break the agreement."

Ye Chen made the bed, turned around and looked at Ji Ruoyu expressionlessly.

Facing Ye Chen's gaze, Ji Ruoyu felt inexplicably guilty.

Just then, Ye Chen suddenly spoke up: "Woof, woof!"

Then he turned around and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Ji Ruoyu looked at the closed door and a faint smile appeared on her face.

A strange warmth welled up inside me, along with a faint sense of guilt...

The next day, in the morning.

Ji's Beauty Technology, rooftop conference room.

The great-grandmother of the Ji family sat in the chairman's seat, and all the company's directors gathered together.

This time, Ji Ruoyu also found her place.

Ye Chen, handpicked by the Ji family's great-grandmother, accompanied Ji Ruoyu to this shareholders' meeting.

However, the gazes of the crowd toward Ye Chen remained filled with disdain.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was somewhat heavy at this moment, and all the directors remained silent.

Grandma Ji glanced at everyone present, then looked at Ji Xiaoren.

As the representative, Ji Xiaoren stood up and picked up a document.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since yesterday, the company has been hit with a large number of negative news stories, and they are organized and large-scale."

"This has had a very serious impact on our company, resulting in many of our sales outlets suffering from varying degrees of malicious incidents."

"This also caused our company's valuation to drop by more than 50 percent."

"Moreover, such a severe situation will seriously affect the company's subsequent listing process."

"More than thirteen franchisees have chosen to terminate their cooperation with us."

"The direct or indirect losses exceed 500 million."

As one message after another came from Ji Xiaoren's mouth, the expressions on the faces of those present grew increasingly grim.

The great-grandmother of the Ji family also had a gloomy expression. Their Ji family had been developing in Wucheng for more than twenty years.

The company has grown from a small storefront to its current size, with a market value of nearly 10 billion.

But in just one day, half of their years of hard work went down the drain, and the effects continue to unfold.

Even so, considering Ji Ruoyu's heroic performance yesterday,

However, negative news will continue to affect the company.

Moreover, those behind this will certainly not let it go.

Just then, the great-grandmother of the Ji family spoke up: "Investigate thoroughly. We must find out who is targeting us."

"Otherwise, no matter how many times we control public opinion, we will never have peace until we find out who is behind it."

All the directors nodded in agreement, but at that moment Ji Xiaoren hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

When the great-grandmother of the Ji family saw this, she frowned and said, "Just say what you want to say, don't be so coy!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoren nodded with a wry smile and said, "Mom, I'm afraid we should put the investigation on hold for now."

"Because of this incident, major stores and sales points have been impacted."

"Some stores need maintenance, and others need compensation payments."

"The 1 billion yuan we previously borrowed from the bank is already somewhat insufficient."

"If this continues, I'm afraid the company's cash flow will run into problems."

Upon hearing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family frowned and asked, "How much of a gap is there, and how long is it expected to last?"

Ji Xiaoren said, "We expect it to last another six months, but there's still a thorny problem."

“I received news that my second and third uncles sold their shares at a low price.”

Upon hearing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family frowned and asked, "You mean Wen Yi and Wen Li?"

Ji Xiaoren nodded and said, "Yes, I tried to persuade them, but I couldn't. When I asked them who they sold it to, they wouldn't say."

Grandma Ji snorted coldly and said, "You two ungrateful bastards, find out immediately who bought the shares."

"We must find a way to buy back the shares; we can't let them fall into the hands of outsiders."

That being said, given the current financial situation, it would be very difficult to buy back the shares.

Ye Chen looked at Ji Ruoyu, who was sitting next to him, with some confusion.

Sensing Ye Chen's gaze, Ji Ruoyu explained, "Ji Wenyi and Ji Wenli are my grandfather's brothers. The three brothers started the company together."

"My second grandfather, Ji Wenyi, was in charge of logistics, and my third grandfather, Ji Wenli, was in charge of production, but later the company ran into problems."

"The two brothers then sought another way out and handed the company over to their grandfather. Later, the grandfather obtained Ji's Whitening Cream, and the company began to flourish."

"Upon receiving the news, my second and third grandfathers rushed back. My grandfather, unable to refuse, gave each of them five percent of the shares."

“They only receive dividends each year and do not participate in management.”

"Over the years, I've taken five or six hundred million yuan from the company."

Ye Chen frowned and said, "In other words, the two of them together hold ten percent of the shares."

Ji Ruoyu nodded and said, "If this 10% of the shares falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it will be a big problem for our Ji family."

Ye Chen understood the risks involved and nodded.

Just then, the conference room door was suddenly opened.

Two bodyguards in black stepped in first, followed by a familiar figure: Ji Ruoyun.

At this moment, Ji Ruoyun walked in with a smile on her face, arm in arm with a man.

Behind them followed two elderly men dressed in long robes, exuding composure.

"Qin Zihao, what are you doing here? This is the board meeting of Ji's Beauty Technology; outsiders are not allowed to enter."

As Ji Ruoyu spoke, she looked at Ji Ruoyun, and for some reason had a bad feeling.

Qin Zihao smiled slightly and said, "I'm here to attend the board meeting."

"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Qin Zihao, and I currently hold 10% of the shares in Ji's Beauty Technology."

"In terms of shareholding, I should be the third largest shareholder. I am here to solve problems for the Ji family."

"I heard that Ji's Beauty Technology is experiencing some cash flow problems."

"I can come up with three billion to solve this problem."
