C8 Ulterior Motive

A white envelope was passed to Jiang Xi, but Jiang Xi did not accept it.

Sheng Jianglai passed the letter to her again, and Jiang Xi took two steps back, still frowning.

"This is your reward for tonight, Yang Hu Jiu gave it to you. "Knowing that I've come, you asked me to bring it to you." He opened the envelope and showed her a wad of red cash. Then, he returned it back to the envelope and looked at Jiang Xi: "Yang Hu Jiu's money, give it to me if you don't take it!"

Jiang Xi was completely relaxed: "It's really because of Boss Yang's reward?"

"Do you want it?" Sheng Jianglai asked directly.

Jiang Xi immediately took the envelope. The thickness of the letter made her heart jump a little, and her expression became a lot better.

"Thank you. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest."

Jiang Xi turned and left. Sheng Jianglai was startled, and immediately followed: "He left just like that? That's it? "

Jiang Xi didn't even look back as she went straight into the dormitory building.

Sheng Jianian arrived at the office ten minutes early today. He needed to take care of some private matters.

The black coffee he drank every day was still on the desk, and the information on the desk had been reorganized and placed according to the category.

When Sheng Jianian sat down, he drank a mouthful of coffee, then pushed the documents in front of him to the table and turned on the computer.

At this time, there was a knock at the office door. Almost at the same time, a slim figure walked in. She placed the documents on Sheng Jianian's desk. The documents on the table, she would arrange them according to the priorities of the day and place them at a distance where the CEO could take care of them easily.

At this moment, when she put down the document, she quickly took a look at the front most emergency document which President Sheng had pushed away, which meant that the CEO did not want to take care of the work right now.

"President Sheng, do you need my help?" Secretary Xie asked.

She was Xie Wanqing, the only female worker that Sheng Jianian had worked with all these years. Due to the fact that he had once saved Sheng Jianian when he was in danger, Xie Wanqing had occasionally taken care of him and even accompanied him on missions. The group had long treated Xie Wanqing as their "CEO", it could be seen how much of a position she had in the group, next to Sheng Jianian.

Just as Sheng Jianian wanted to search, he stopped himself. "No need, you go and busy yourself."

Xie Wanqing smiled decently, but she stood there and did not move.

Sheng Jianian waited for the meeting to start, then looked up: "Is there something you need?"

Xie Wanqing hesitated for a bit, then said: "It shouldn't be a problem, it's just that … As your senior secretary, I am worried that the woman you approached last night has other motives. President Sheng, I know that I was overthinking it, but I still have to remind you. There are a lot of little girls like you right now, they will do everything they can to get close to powerful men. President Sheng, with your position in the Cloud Capital, I think the woman who appeared last night wouldn't be that simple. "

A truly simple woman would not create the opportunity to get to know President Sheng.

Sheng Jianian's eyes flashed with a cold light. He did not look up, but rather, landed on the table, and had already been divided into six or seven categories.

Xie Wanqing could sense the low pressure coming from the President Sheng and she immediately continued in a low voice: "President Sheng, Xinqing is very worried about you. She was worried about the woman who appeared last night. Her motives were impure. "

"Who told you that?" Sheng Jianian finally raised his head and looked at her, his tone cold.

"Last night, I contacted the HR department at Yang Group Corporation, and after checking, I found out that there was no woman there. President Sheng, I'm worried that this is a trap set up by Director Yang. There have been times like this in the past, President Sheng … "

"I'll think about it myself. You can leave first." Sheng Jianian said in a heavy voice.

Xie Wanqing wanted to say more, but seeing the President Sheng's obvious resistance, he could only leave.

Xie Wanqing returned to the office. Five minutes before work time was up, Lee Fuzhou came in with his briefcase.

Xie Wanqing immediately asked: "Li Jia, where did the woman who appeared by President Sheng's side last night come from, have you investigated his clearly?"

Lee Fuzhou was stunned: "I did not receive such instructions from President Sheng."

With these words, Lee Fuzhou returned to his station, and Xie Wanqing's expression became ugly: "Those women who deliberately approached the President Sheng, as his left and right hands, why aren't you treating them with caution? What if the woman is a commercial spy? "

Lee Fuzhou looked up and thought back to Jiang Xi's harmless face and laughed: "It doesn't look like it.

Xie Wanqing was very dissatisfied with Lee Fuzhou's response and attitude. Was it really possible for the little white rabbit to stay in President Sheng for the night?

"I don't believe that a woman who appears on such occasions can be so simple as not to be a commercial spy but also a wishful thinking outsider."

After Lee Fuzhou heard this, he looked at Xie Wanqing, wanting to say something but repressed her words.

"The President Sheng's morning meeting is about to begin. I'll go prepare some things." Lee Fuzhou used this as an excuse to leave the office.

During Sheng Jianian's meeting, Sheng Jianglai came to the company and when he was receiving them, he mentioned about last night's royal ball.

After Sheng Jianglai heard this, he smiled and said, "Secretary Xie is overthinking it. The scheming young miss that you're talking about is my female companion, I brought her with me. Also, I have personally sent her back home, so why would I stay at President Sheng's place? "

Xie Wanqing was shocked: You didn't stay in the President Sheng overnight?

"Last night, Li Hu personally said that he sent President Sheng and that young miss back to the Lu Mountain Villa. Young Master Sheng, you must have remembered wrongly, right?"

Sheng Jianglai shrugged his shoulders, "If Li De really gifted a lady to the Lu Mountain Villa, she definitely won't be the one at the ball, I promise you with my identity as the Sheng Family's Young Master."

Xie Wanqing's expression softened, and laughed: "Maybe Li Hu is joking with me."

Sheng Jianglai looked at Xie Wanqing. He knew that his Fourth Uncle treated Xie Wanqing exceptionally well.

However, in these past few years, his Fourth Uncle had only taken special care of his and did not take a single step forward in his emotions. Sheng Jianglai wanted to say one more sentence, but he was afraid of irritating his Fourth Uncle, so he simply didn't have that mouth anymore.

Sheng Jianglai remained silent. Xie Wanqing then asked, "Young Master Sheng has already returned, your Xu Family is still unknown, right?"

Sheng Jianglai raised his eyebrows, "Last night, they had already made an appearance publicly. Today, the entire world knows."

"Hehe, that's true. Soon, we'll be drinking the wedding wine. It's truly a happy occasion." Xie Wanqing replied with a smile.

Sheng Jianglai mentioned about the marriage, his heart was filled with annoyance: "My Fourth Uncle has built a family first, but I want to get married first. For a man with an ambition in his career, this is not something worth celebrating."

Xie Wanqing instantly felt that she had said something wrong and returned back to the office politely.

Xie Wanqing had made a promise before, so the two of them would be able to meet to go shopping and chat. Therefore, the first thing Xie Wanqing did when she heard of the situation at Sheng Jianglai's party last night was to inform him that it was her responsibility.

As for the promise, it was currently in the room, crying.

When his fiancé returned to the country, he had concealed his itinerary from everyone and even brought a female companion with him when he publicly appeared to attend the royal ball. Listening to Xie Wanqing adding oil to the fire, the promise made her panic.

Her identity had already been found out by Xu Family. If the marriage with Sheng Family were to change again, she didn't dare imagine what kind of life she would face in the future.
