She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

If she hadn't been so close, she would have thought she was seeing things.

She slowly looked away, pretending not to see, but a wave of gossip surged in her heart.

The boss, who always puts work first and hates people answering phone calls during meetings, actually secretly sent a message to someone?

The other party could very well be a woman?

What an earth-shattering secret!

How are you?

The message was sent, but there was no reply for a long time.

Han Xi frowned slightly.

The group of high-ranking officials who had been secretly observing him immediately lowered their heads even further, filled with fear.

He put down his phone and turned his gaze back to the documents in his hand, but his dark eyes slowly slid upwards, glancing calmly and elegantly at the phone.

With just that fleeting glance, his gaze almost swept over the Minister of Administration. Who could understand that feeling? He nearly fainted on the spot.

The office atmosphere was so quiet that you could barely hear anyone breathing.

Just when everyone thought a storm was brewing and tried to hide like quails to minimize their presence, Han Xi suddenly stood up.

He casually tossed out a "Meeting adjourned" and turned to leave.

gone?

What's going on here??

The weekly meeting was only halfway through, and the familiar yet dreaded review session hadn't even started yet, so why did it end so suddenly?

Elara tidied up the documents in front of Han Xi, and all the senior executives gathered around.

"Secretary Liao, what's the situation with President Han today?"

"Could it be that there was a problem with the previous project? Or is there some new project?"

"Which company is involved in the new project? What's the approximate valuation?"

Elara's real name is Liao Jingyi. After organizing all the documents, she stood up on the table for a moment before straightening up and looking at the extremely curious crowd in front of her.

"I don't know the valuation either, but... President Han seems to value it quite a bit."

The more puzzled everyone became, the more they realized that they had rarely seen a company that could earn the boss's attention over the years.

"Could it be one of those foreign conglomerates?"

Liao Jingyi gave everyone a meaningful look, then swayed her hips as she left the conference room.

Meanwhile, in the CEO's office...

When Fang Li didn't reply to his message, Han Xi called Lin Mo directly.

The man stood with his back to the floor-to-ceiling window, tall and straight, exuding an air of nobility. Even just standing there quietly, one could feel the innate imposing aura emanating from him.

The call connected, and Lin Mo's playful voice came through again: "Boss, we really are on the same wavelength."

Han Xi was clearly not going to bother with jokes, and asked in a deep voice, "How is she?"

Lin Mo is a man who has followed Han Xi for so many years. He can tell his boss's mood with just a glance or a tone of voice.

Clearly, the boss on the other end of the phone was in a bad mood.

Lin Mo stopped laughing and answered truthfully: "Madam has already returned to the hotel. There are rumors circulating within Yaoxing that Madam has requested to terminate the contract, and the higher-ups at Yaoxing have not objected. Once the penalty for breach of contract is paid, the contract should be terminated."

"Did anyone from Yaoxing give her a hard time?"

Mentioning this, Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh again: "Boss, you really underestimate Madam. You have no idea how domineering she is."

Lin Mo vividly recounted how Fang Li hit Yu Wei and confronted Song Yuchen, especially emphasizing how resolute and ruthless Fang Li was when facing Song Yuchen.

After hanging up the phone, Han Xi's stern and cold expression relaxed almost imperceptibly.

After knocking for a long time without any response, Elara pushed the door open and entered. Although she couldn't see her boss's expression, she was immediately greeted by a warm and sunny atmosphere.

She knew that her boss was in a good mood at that moment.

Elara didn't ask any further questions, and simply reported on the work: "President Han, these are the work reports from the remaining departments. I've put them on your desk."

"Ah."

After putting her things down, Elara prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Han Xi suddenly turned around, grabbed the car keys from the table, and left, saying as he went, "Book me the fastest flight to Hangzhou."

"what?"

Elara turned around, but the office door was already closed, and her boss was nowhere to be seen.

Hangzhou?

Didn't President Han just return from Hangzhou?

Could it be... that the person in the phone is from Hangzhou?

The gossip factor within me is starting to kick in again; the boss, who's been a dead tree for ages, is about to bloom! How can this not be exciting!

Elara pulled out her phone to check flight tickets, thinking that she was determined to hold onto her position as the chief gossipmonger.

Someone who can make the boss so unpredictable and restless is someone you should definitely try to curry favor with in the future.

-

Having put an end to a troublesome matter, Fang Li felt much relieved. She closed her eyes to rest for a while, but somehow she fell asleep without realizing it.

Fang Li usually has difficulty falling asleep, but once she falls asleep, she is in a deep sleep and it is difficult to wake her up with the slightest noise.

She was fast asleep, wrapped in her blanket, when the phone suddenly rang.

She turned up her phone's ringtone before going to sleep, and she opened her eyes almost instantly.

She rolled over, reached for her phone on the bed, picked it up, and saw that it was Yu Tian calling.

"Hello?" she answered the phone with her eyes closed.

She wasn't fully awake yet, and her usually clear voice had a noticeably lazy, low hue, with a slightly nasal tone.

Yu Tian on the other end of the phone was clearly taken aback for a few seconds before speaking: "Miss, it's past five o'clock, would you like to eat?"

Fang Li was taken aback. She put her phone away and squinted at the screen. It was indeed almost six o'clock.

She lazily sat up in bed and replied, "Okay, but I'm too lazy to go out. Just get something to eat at the hotel."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Li sat there blankly for a few seconds before falling backward.

After struggling painfully with his eyes closed for a few minutes, he suddenly seemed to remember something and raised his phone to his face again.

Sure enough, there was a small red dot on that little green icon that had been dormant for most of the day.

She quickly opened it; there was a message sent more than three hours earlier: "How are you?"

What's up?

Fang Li frowned, not understanding what the man meant by asking this question.

She thought for a moment, then typed: "I'm in Hangzhou, here to handle my contract termination."

Click Send.

After a while, there was no response from the other side.

Are you busy?

That shouldn't be the case; shouldn't people be getting off work at this hour?

Fang Li hesitated for a moment, then dialed the number. Soon after, a mechanical female voice announced that the other party's phone was switched off.

A hint of sadness flashed in her eyes.

After hanging up the phone, he lay on the bed for a few minutes, then suddenly shook his head violently, rolled over, sat up, and went into the bathroom.

The sky is huge and the food is the biggest!

Who cares, I don't want to think about it anymore.

-

Yu Tian arrived more than half an hour later, along with the food delivery staff.

Fang Li had just finished taking a shower and was standing by the window with a glass of red wine, looking at the night view of Hangzhou.

Yu Tian and the waiter set the dinner on the table and then prepared to leave.

Fang Li looked at the table full of dishes and asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to eat? How can I finish all this food by myself?"

Yu Tian remained unmoved.

Fang Li smiled and said, "Please sit down. I have something to tell you."
