"Wait."

"I'll ask Ah Mu to accompany you."

"What do you mean?" Li Wenqi did not understand.

Li Wenqi knew that there was nothing she could say, so she turned and walked out.

After Li Wenqi said all that, she finally got Ah Mu to agree to go out with her.

Although she didn't know why Chen Xi wanted to appraise the jewels, she would do it for as long as it was according to Chen Xi's instructions.

But what Chen Xi was worried about was actually Duan Wenyu. Where did she go?

It wasn't because he was worried that something would happen to her, but because he was afraid that if he provoked her, he would do something even more excessive to her.

In fact, she didn't want to announce their relationship at this press conference. She felt like she was being pushed from one topic to another.

Now there was no one in the company who didn't know who she was.

It wasn't that she was afraid of their stares, but that no one wanted to keep on being watched.

It was drizzling outside. A cold wind blew through the French windows, leaving raindrops on the translucent glass.

The weather was extremely overcast. Tang Hongbo had his back facing Secretary Wang, his hands in the pockets of his clothes as he stood by the window, his tall and straight figure gave off a lonely feeling. Listening to Secretary Wang's report, his face showed neither joy nor anger.

After Secretary Wang finished speaking, he could not help but frown.

President, all the places that Miss Duan would go, we have already sent people to look for them, but we did not manage to find them.

Tang Hongbo was silent for a moment, and then said with a low voice.

"Forget it, let them return. When she wants to appear, she will naturally appear. There's no need to look for her."

"Alright." Secretary Wang nodded, and then said hesitantly.

"CEO, I heard something this afternoon. Do I need to report it to you?"

"What is it?" Tang Hong still did not turn around.

"I heard that the madame is in the treasury today …" Secretary Wang told everything that he knew about Chen Xi in the treasury, to Tang Hongbo.

After Tang Hongbo finished listening, his expression turned cold as he said solemnly.

"The people from the Finance Department have all changed."

Secretary Wang was shocked, he knew what Tang Hongbo meant.

"CEO, actually, the few people in the Finance Department did not get any benefits from Madam's hands and switched the people in the Finance Department. I'm afraid that's not appropriate, after all this is a major issue, why don't we just punish them a little?" Secretary Wang advised.

"Forget it?" I'm afraid I don't have that kind of stomach. " Tang Hongbo said coldly with a gloomy face.

"But the Finance Department is still an important department of the company after all. We can't make any mistakes. CEO, please think about it carefully." Secretary Wang was regretting telling him.

Then he continued.

"Besides, CEO, you just announced it at the press conference. Your relationship with Madam, the people in the company had some opinions about Madam because of the fake jewelry, and now that your relationship has been announced, it's normal for them to be jealous. The people in the Finance Department are also jealous of the Madam, CEO …" Secretary Wang knew that he did not finish speaking. Tang Hongbo definitely understood the meaning behind his words.

As expected, Tang Hongbo was also silent.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you to handle personally."

Tang Hongbo naturally understood the meaning behind Secretary Wang's words.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought of this, but that he couldn't wait any longer.

He knew that there would definitely be people pointing fingers at Chen Xi, but he never thought that things would develop so quickly.

What Secretary Wang meant was that most of the people in the company had opinions towards Chen Xi, and they could not just change her every time because of a few small talk.

He knew in his heart that this was not a long-term solution, but he could not bear to see anyone say anything bad about Chen Xi, nor could he bear to see Chen Xi getting wronged in the slightest.

"CEO, don't worry, I will take care of this matter." As Secretary Wang said this, a glint flashed past his eyes.

Because not only did this make Tang Hongbo angry, he was also very angry. As for the reason, it was naturally because of Li Wenqi.

Li Wenqi who was sent to do something felt that there was no one that was more unfortunate than her.

Being bullied by her colleagues at work, she walked for a long time before it started to rain. What was even worse was that there was a moving cold cabinet beside her, the weather was already very cold, so when she looked at Ah Mu, she suddenly felt even colder.

However, she could only brace herself and walk alongside him, because they only had one umbrella, and that umbrella was still in his hand.

While silently sighing in her heart, she was also deeply moved about what kind of evil she had done.

However, it was still too early for her to sigh, because Ah Mu, who had always been cold as ice, suddenly took the initiative to ask.

"How far are you going?"

Li Wenqi looked at him in astonishment, and when she saw that he was staring straight ahead, she could not help but subconsciously reply.

"Are you talking to me?" After all, from the looks of it, he didn't seem like he could take the initiative to talk to her.

"How far is it?" Ah Mu asked again.

Li Wenqi was still very surprised, but she still replied.

"It's not far. We'll be there after we turn the corner."

When Ah Mu heard this, his eyes suddenly turned deep and serene. He looked in front of him, and then quietly surveyed the situation around him.

After that, he stopped in his tracks as Li Wenqi subconsciously rushed to the front.

"What are you doing?" Li Wenqi couldn't help but ask in anger because his footsteps had suddenly stopped and he was drenched in rain.

"This way." Ah Mu pointed to a slightly smaller road to their left, and said with a deep voice.

"Why? It's right in front of us, not too far away. Li Wenqi asked in confusion.

"Let's go." Without saying anything, Ah Mu dragged Li Wenqi and walked towards the left.

"Hey, what are you doing? "You're crazy! Let go of me, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to make a move on me?" Li Wen struggled to shout.

But Ah Mu's hands were tightly clamped on her wrist, allowing her to struggle free.

Ah Mu suddenly pulled her into a remote alley. This time, Li Wenqi was even more afraid.

"Ah Mu, what are you doing? Are you trying to rob money or a pervert? Let me tell you, I don't even have one, so you better let me go. " Li Wenqi continued to shout.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and half of their clothes were already wet.

Ah Mu turned his head back from time to time, the coldness in his eyes becoming colder and colder.

"Let go of me. If you don't, I'll call the police." Li Wenqi was truly a little angry.

Ah Mu became annoyed listening to her chatter in his ear.

"Shut up." Ah Mu said coldly.

He felt as if the people behind him were getting closer and closer, and he focused all his attention.

"You told me to shut up? Let me go first. Don't think that just because you're handsome you can play kidnapping. Let me tell you, it's also against the law. " Li Wenqi said hatefully.

"Quiet, we're being followed." Ah Mu suddenly approached her, and said a little impatiently.

Li Wenqi's breathing stagnated, and then, she became even more angry.

"Wow, that's a really fresh reason. Do you think you're making a movie? Hey, I was wondering if you were killed. Earlier, you said you wanted to change the bulletproof glass, and now you're saying that we're being followed, you've even renewed my understanding towards you. Young man, are you on drugs?" Li Wenqi obviously did not believe him.

Ah Mu, on the other hand, was paying attention to the movement behind him. He did not hear Li Wenqi's complaints, probably because it was raining, so the people behind took advantage of the rain to get closer and closer to them.

But with his years of experience, he could see through all of this. In fact, ever since they left the company, those people had been following them. However, he couldn't figure out who followed them or why.

Li Wenqi saw that Ah Mu had ignored her, and with a serious expression, she became even more angry.

"Did you listen to me …" Before Li Wenqi could finish her words, her mouth was immediately covered by Ah Mu. With a quick turn of her body, she disappeared into an alleyway devoid of human smoke.

Rain fell mercilessly on their clothes, causing Li Wenqi to open her eyes wide as she slapped the hand Ah Mu used to cover her mouth with as much effort as she could muster.

"Listen to me, there's someone following us from behind, I didn't lie to you, now I let you go, don't scream, do you hear me?" Ah Mu whispered into her ear.

Li Wenqi nodded.

Ah Mu gradually let go of her with a dark face. When he let go, Li Wenqi immediately started cursing.

"The dead ice cube, you …"

"Shh, look." Ah Mu made a gesture of silence, then pointed to the corner of the alley.

Li Wenqi extended his head out to look in the direction he pointed.

When she saw them, she broke out in a cold sweat. There really were people following them.

She looked at Ah Mu in disbelief.

"What's going on? Did we really meet some robbers? " Li Wenqi looked at the few men in suits, there were at least three of them.

What kind of fate did she have? She couldn't help but wail in her heart.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Ah Mu said in a heavy voice.

"Let's call the police." Li Wenqi said subconsciously.

"Do you think we'll live to see the police rescue us after we call them?" Ah Mu snorted.

"Then what do we do now? There's a dead end behind us, why did you bring me here? If I were to go through the road, I wouldn't have met them, I would have been killed by you. " Li Wenqi's face fell as she complained.

"Hmph. I would really like to see who it is. Don't worry, they don't dare to act yet." As Ah Mu said this, he couldn't help but stick his head out carefully to take a look.

From the looks of it, the other party was discussing something. Perhaps it was because he and Li Wenqi had suddenly gone into hiding, but they did not discover it.

That's why he was thinking of a way, Ah Mu guessed.

"What do we do now?" Li Wenqi asked anxiously.

"Wait." Ah Mu only said two words.

Li Wenqi looked at him in disbelief. She looked at her clothes, which were mostly drenched, and felt extremely cold.

"Just waiting?" Li Wenqi became even more anxious.
