”You brought this upon yourself. Next time, let your memory rise too. Don't forget who you are talking to.”
Just as she was about to speak, a cold male voice came from the direction of the elevator. ”I really don't know who gave you such authority.”
Shen Jingchen's voice was like a raging lion's roar, causing everyone present to tremble inwardly. One must know that this man's emotions were concealed, but anyone with eyes could tell that Shen Mo Chen was currently on the verge of erupting with rage.
”CEO...” It was clear that Director Li did not expect Shen Mo Chen to appear here at this time. He adjusted his expression and turned to look at Shen Mo Chen.
Shen Jingchen did not set his gaze on Liu Xixi the entire time. Instead, he looked at Liu Xixi's reddened skin, and the aura being emitted from her body became even colder.
”Director Li, Zhiyuan Temple is too small for you. It's better if you seek for something else.” Shen Jingchen's voice was not loud, but everyone around could hear him.
”You … What do you mean? Did you forget that it was you who spent a lot of money to dig me up? ” A hint of incredulity appeared on Director Li's face. Now, was Shen Jingchen going to resign because of a woman?
”Now I regret it.” Shen Jingchen calmly said, as if the dismissal of an executive director was just a small matter.
”Can you bear the consequences of firing me now?”
”What is the result?” It was as if Shen Mo Chen had heard the funniest joke in the world, ”I can still afford to pay a penalty of several tens of millions.”
Shen Mo Chen didn't plan on wasting any more time with Director Li. He walked up to Liu Xi Xi and picked up her scalded hand, inspecting her injuries. Fortunately, it was only a slight swelling and no blisters, otherwise this matter wouldn't have been resolved so easily.
”Are you alright?” Shen Mo Chen asked in a low voice.
”Yes.” Liu Xi nodded his head dejectedly. It was clear that all of this was caused by him, but now, it had turned him into the savior of the world.
”Then come with me.” Silent Chen took the uninjured hand and walked toward the elevator.
Liu Xixi wanted to break free from his restraints. Now that so many people were looking at them, she didn't know what gossip was going to spread.
”If you move again, do you believe that I'll carry you?” Shen Jingchen threatened Liu Xixi in a voice that could only be heard by two people.
He knew what he was afraid of every time he saw it, and then he would grasp at his own weakness.
Obediently, she followed Shen Jingchen into the private elevator that belonged to Shen Jingchen. She then watched as the elevator continued to escalate until it finally stopped at the top floor.
Shen Jingchen held her hand as he walked towards the CEO's office. Pushing aside the bookshelves, he pulled Liussi into his study.
The blood from the last cut had been cleaned up and was still the same as before. There was no sign of a dispute in this room.
It turned out that her determination to fight for her freedom was so pathetic that it didn't even have any meaning to her existence. Liuxi's heart couldn't help but change as she looked around the white room that was as white as a brand-new one.
