Chapter 224: Trouble


Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations


s.h.i.+ Xiao glanced at her calf coldly.


Perhaps to s.h.i.+ Xiao, it was a moment of heartache and uncontrollable gentleness.


At that time, he did not have feelings for Lin Xi, but he did have the thought of bringing her back to the country. He had also thought of using her as an excuse to divorce Yuan Shu, but the changes in the situation were beyond his expectations.


At that time, he was injured and let down his guard. Unexpectedly, it ended up making a mistake.


In the end, he had used her.


s.h.i.+ Xiao didn’t look at her again. His tone was very cold as he said, “That was just out of concern for a friend. You were the one who misunderstood. You saved my life once, so 1 naturally won’t abandon you. Don’t worry. Just stay here. If there’s anything, look for Zhao Cheng. I’ll pretend I did not see what happened today and don’t mention it again.”


s.h.i.+ Xiao didn’t give Lin Xi any chance to continue. He knocked on the car window. When the driver guarding outside heard it, he immediately turned around, opened the car door, and sat in the driver’s seat.


Lin Xi knew that there was nothing else to talk about, so she could only give up. With a disappointed expression and tears in her eyes, she got out of the car in a daze.


s.h.i.+ Xiao waited until Lin Xi got into the elevator and the lights in the room lit up before getting the chauffeur to drive the car to the company.


At this moment, he was very vexed. He had always been aloof and did not care about the consequences of his actions. He had never thought of being soft-hearted to anyone, and he definitely did not owe anyone anything. However, he had provoked two women in his life. One was Yuan Shu, whom he did not love, but now, he could not bear to part with her. The other was Lin Xi, who was tormented because of his compa.s.sion back then.


In order to make it convenient for him to work overtime, s.h.i.+ Xiao tidied up a cubicle in the office and got someone to place a bed and necessary daily necessities. When the corporation had something important to deal with, he would usually stay here at night.


As he lay in the bedroom that had been tidied up in the office and looked at the starry sky outside the French window, he was unable to fall asleep.


Actually, he had never liked weak women. They used their pitiful appearance to win sympathy and had no self-defense abilities at all. When he recalled how he could not help himself at that time, as if his body was not under his control, he felt that something was wrong.


s.h.i.+ Xiao had a bad feeling. It was as if everything he had experienced was being controlled by an invisible hand, but he did not know who this hand belonged to or when it started to control this situation.


After thinking about it for a long time, s.h.i.+ Xiao carefully recalled everything in the past and realized that everything had started to spiral out of control from the moment Yuan Shu appeared.


“Yuan Shu…”


s.h.i.+ Xiao’s lips parted slightly as he chanted her name slowly over and over again. He seemed to want to resolve all the problems through this method, but in the end, he became more and more confused.


s.h.i.+ Xiao could only give up. After he glanced at the clock on the wall, he saw that it was already past two o’clock. He closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.


The next morning, s.h.i.+ Xiao sat up in bed. He did not dream the entire night. Perhaps because he was really tired, he slept very soundly. When he woke up, he felt much more clear-headed.


After was.h.i.+ng up, he sat at his desk again and started to look at the latest data a.n.a.lysis from last night. At the same time, he saw the plan that Zhao Mian had sent last night in his email. Then, he marked the plan and formulated the next step.


By the time these things were done, it was already 11:30 p.m. s.h.i.+ Xiao suddenly remembered that today, there was a technology exhibition launched by a technological big shot company in the Internet industry. It gathered all the talents in society who were interested in technology and showcased their designs and works.


As a rising star in the Internet industry, although Yuan An was established relatively late, its concept was very novel and the team was very strong, even surpa.s.sing those of many old companies in the Internet industry. Its strength could not be underestimated, so it also received an invitation to this exhibition.


The exhibition would be held at 12 noon today. s.h.i.+ Xiao had been so busy recently that he had completely forgotten about this matter. Now that he saw the label on the calendar, he suddenly remembered..
