Chen Xi was discouraged, as if she was not really interested in this place.

"That day, when I walked out of Sister Xixi's office, I didn't meet anyone, but when I entered the venue, the moment I reached the entrance, there was suddenly a power cut, and then I felt as if I was tripped by someone, and fell down with the jewelry falling to the ground, but I quickly picked it up and checked it out when the electricity recovered, and it wasn't damaged, I gave the jewelry to Sister Xixi, and only returned it to me when Sister Xixi went up on stage, but not long after, people from the monitoring department barged in." Li Wenqi recalled.

"So the jewelry was moved when you fell?" I hope what you said was true, and that I wasn't wrong about you. " Tang Hongbo stared at Li Wenqi, and spoke each word.

Qi Qi, I believe in you, the CEO is only asking about it, don't take it to heart. Chen Xi comforted her.

Li Wenqi nodded.

"Alright, it's already very late. You should go back first. We'll talk about it when it's time for work on Monday." Chen Xi said gently.

"I'm sorry Sister Xixi, actually, I was also wrong. If I had been a little more careful at that time, such a thing wouldn't have happened." Li Wenqi kept her head down, feeling extremely guilty.

"Qi Qi, this isn't your fault. Some people want to frame me, but you just don't know. Chen Xi said.

"Yes." Li Wenqi lowered her head and walked out.

After a long while, Tang Hongbo finally spoke coldly with a dark face.

"What a good move, changing pillars by accident. I have truly underestimated my opponent, daring to scheme in my territory."

Chen Xi looked at his gloomy face and sighed in his heart. This matter was obviously because of her and Tang Hongbo.

As for the culprit, she knew who it was with her toes, it was just that she did not have any evidence. From the beginning, she had always felt that Rong Xuan's appearance on that day was definitely not a coincidence.

If the thief was not their own doing, then one of them must be working with the thief.

And who was this person who worked with them? Was it Duan Wenyu who had mocked her from top to bottom? Or was it Rong Xuan who showed his goodwill in every way?

She wanted to tell Tang Hongbo about this discovery, but looking at his gloomy face, she didn't know what the consequences would be after she told him about it.

Right now, she had nothing left. Her reputation and status had all left her. What was there for her to be afraid of?

However, before telling Tang Hongbo, she had to do something first.

She had already reached the limit of her tolerance. She knew that Duan Wenyu would definitely not let her off.

He thought that once he returned with Chen Xi's identity, she would have restrained herself, but he never expected that not only did she not restrain herself, she had even become even more sinister and vicious.

Duan Wenyu could no longer tolerate him, so she could not blame her for not remembering their old friendship.

"Xi Xi, what are you thinking about?" Tang Hongbo's voice pulled her back to reality.

"Ah, what?" Chen Xi looked at him suspiciously.

"Secretary Wang, continue watching. I'll send Xi Xi back first." Tang Hongbo said to Secretary Wang.

"Alright." Secretary Wang acknowledged his presence before continuing to watch the surveillance recording.

Tang Hongbo's entire body was filled with anger. Walking in front, Chen Xi slowly followed behind him without saying a word.

She knew what Tang Hongbo was angry about. He must have thought that the Tang Mansion was like an iron wall, but there was still someone who would barge in and cause such a ruckus, and his own employees actually colluded with outsiders.

No one knew who was implicating who in this matter, but no one blamed who.

After exiting the company's gate, Chen Xi suddenly went forward and pulled the corner of his clothes, and said softly.

"You don't need to send me back. I can just take a taxi."

"No, I'm worried about you going back alone so late at night." Tang Hongbo rejected her suggestion.

"It's not too late. It's only eight. Besides, you'd better hurry up and investigate. Don't waste your time on me." Chen Xi smiled.

Tang Hongbo looked at her, the anger on his face gradually dissipating.

"How can it be a waste of time to send you home? I never thought what I did for you was a waste of time. " Tang Hongbo said as he caressed her head.

"I know, but I'm going to the hospital to look for the Brother Yiran, so you should go back and help Secretary Wang." Chen Xi said as she pushed him.

"I'll take you to the hospital." Tang Hongbo said.

"Are you sure that Brother Yiran and Qingxia want to see you?" Chen Xi laughed.

Tang Hongbo said after a moment of silence.

"Then call me at the hospital, will you?" Tang Hongbo finally compromise.

"Alright, by the way, remember to change your medicine when you're injured." Chen Xi pointed to his arm.

"Alright." Tang Hongbo acknowledged.

Watching Chen Xi's back as he walked far away, his face suddenly darkened.

A youth suddenly appeared behind Tang Hongbo and respectfully asked.

"Young Master, do you want to follow?"

"Follow him. Do you know the rules?" Tang Hongbo coldly asked.

"Young Master, Ah Mu does not dare to forget."

"Repeat." Tang Hongbo still looked in the direction Chen Xi left.

"If she is even slightly injured, I will definitely live a life worse than death. If there is no danger, I will never show myself." The youth respectfully said.

Ah Mu, from today onwards, your mission is to properly protect Madam. You absolutely cannot let her be in danger. Tang Hongbo said softly.

"Yes, Young Master, Ah Mu will definitely protect Madam with his life." The youth powerfully said.

"Okay, you're her shadow, you know?" Tang Hongbo said.

"Understood."

"Are you feeling wronged?" Tang Hongbo suddenly asked.

"Ah Mu has never felt wronged before. If it wasn't for Young Master saving me from the jaws of a tiger, how could Ah Mu have existed?" The youth smiled, but it quickly faded away.

"Saving you also has your own selfish motives. After all, you are my hidden ace in the hole. It's just that it's not important now. What's important is …" Tang Hongbo looked in the direction Chen Xi left.

Right now, she was the only one he cared about the most. He didn't care about those things a long time ago, so to him, Ah Mu was at most just a bodyguard.

"Ah Mu is willing to be your pawn." The youth shouted.

"No, I don't need any chess pieces anymore. To me, you are just like a shadow bodyguard, do you understand?" Tang Hongbo said indifferently.

"Yes."

"Go."

The youth's figure vanished into the boundless night, and his appearance couldn't be seen clearly. Only his cold and lonely figure could be seen.

When Tang Hongbo was twenty years old, he inadvertently saved the ten year old Ah Mu. After that, he kept Ah Mu by his side.

So from then on, he had kept Ah Mu by his grandfather's side. He knew that his grandfather would definitely take that road, and he told Ah Mu to protect Grandfather. After Grandfather left, Ah Mu was brought away by Grandpa Liang.

He only found out afterwards that Ah Mu was taken away by the Grandpa Liang and now that the Grandpa Liang had returned Ah Mu to him, he was happy to accept it.

But now, other than asking Ah Mu to protect Chen Xi, there was nothing else he could do.

Not long after Chen Xi left, she called a taxi. When the driver asked her where she was going, she told him the address.

When the car started up, she suddenly felt very stuffy, like she couldn't breathe.

She immediately took out the medicine Chen Yiran had prescribed for her from her bag.

She swallowed without hesitation, then opened the window.

The cold wind howled past and rushed in, but the stifling feeling in his heart didn't lessen in the slightest.

"Miss, it's very cold with the windows open this winter. It's better to close them." The driver reminded him.

"I'm fine." Chen Xi said lifelessly.

"Miss, are you alright?" Maybe because he heard Chen Xi's voice, the driver could not help but to turn around and ask.

"Master, I'm going to sleep for a while. I'm here, you can just call me." Chen Xi said softly.

"Alright." The master agreed.

Perhaps it was because he had taken the medicine, but his depressed heart felt much better, but he was also a little drowsy.

Not long after, she really did go to sleep.

She didn't know how long she had slept, or when she had arrived. When she got out of the car in a daze, she thought she was dreaming.

However, he clearly knew in his heart that he wasn't dreaming. He just didn't want to face or believe it.

Hua Li's European style villa was now right in front of her. Before she was twenty years old, she'd dreamed of living in such a house every day, and when she did, she missed her own little nest of less than forty square meters.

It had been the beginning of her dream, but it was also the end, the beginning and the end of her happiness.

The villas in the green garden were all surrounded by mountains and water. It was a Feng Shui treasure land, but it did not bring her any luck.

Looking at the surroundings, he realized how unfamiliar it was.

When she was brought back that year, there was an old-fashioned mailbox at the door of the mansion, as well as a nearby tree and a not-so-tall parasol tree.

It was only now that she understood how long it had been since she'd been here.

Maybe she couldn't remember.

She had originally thought that she would be a bit perturbed, but she discovered that there was nothing else other than calmness.

This was because only by coming to a stranger's house would he be able to be so calm.
