Chi Enen hadn’t seen him for a long time, couldn’t help but take another look, and replied, "Hello."

She was merely responding out of politeness, not knowing what had upset the man holding her hand again. He unexpectedly blocked her vision without a trace.

"Why so slow?" Li Beijue glanced dissatisfiedly at the equally outstanding man.

Huo Leiting pressed his temple with a finger, saying helplessly, "I had to inform Director Cai first."

In his suit and leather shoes, neat and handsome, he turned his head, glanced at the chief of the police station, and said, "Director Cai already knows what’s going on, saying it’s a misunderstanding. They asked Miss Chi to come back just to see if she knew anything about the incident in the city center this afternoon, with no other intentions. Since you want to take Miss Chi away, you can take her anytime."

Of course, whether the police station initially wanted to detain Chi Enen is no longer important.

What’s important is that Li Beijue came personally to pick her up, along with Huo Leiting. Chi Enen certainly couldn’t be kept here.

"Got it." Li Beijue responded indifferently, acknowledging the situation.

Holding Chi Enen’s wrist, he started walking outside, "Let’s go."

Chi Enen was pulled away by him, stumbling as she tried to keep up with his pace.

Before leaving, he paused, spoke coldly to the man like an ice sculpture, "I’ll be waiting for you outside, hurry up."

Only then did he forcibly take Chi Enen away.

...

minutes later, Huo Leiting came out.

He opened the car door of the Lexus, got in, and greeted Chi Enen, "Miss Chi, long time no see."

Compared to Si Chen, Huo Leiting definitely belonged to the type of man with a cold face and air conditioning aura. Just looking at him, one could feel the chill emanating from him.

Chi Enen was very curious about how these three people, with completely different personalities, became friends.

Especially Huo Leiting, how he got along with Li Beijue without Si Chen as a lubricant.

"Long time no see." Despite her curiosity, Chi Enen still knew the basic politeness and smiled as she greeted him.

Huo Leiting sensed an unpleasant gaze falling on him. He felt a bit baffled but still said to Chi Enen, "I just spoke with Director Cai and got a general idea of what happened in the city center. The police station detained the vice minister of your company’s Quality Inspection Department, and now they are close to confessing that there was an issue with the batch of materials used in constructing the shopping center. I have some not-so-good news to tell you."

"What?" Chi Enen was very calm. She had already gathered a lot during her conversation with the female police officer, so she had a rough idea.

Her calm and poised demeanor made Huo Leiting look at her with admiration and say, "Director Cai said that the vice minister of your company might try to pin this matter on you."

"It doesn’t need investigation to know that the batch of materials you used must have been problematic. Materials being faulty wouldn’t be significant. The key is that such a big accident happened. If at this time, he insists that you knowingly used the faulty materials for the sake of saving costs, then you might actually end up back at the police station."

In such unforeseen accidents, if there’s no loss of life, at most, the company’s reputation is damaged.

But once there’s a loss of life, it becomes a matter of criminal responsibility.

With such a significant incident, as the primary responsible person, Chi Enen will undoubtedly be the first to face the storm’s impact!

This is something that even Beijue being around wouldn’t change.
