Rebirth: Divorcing the Billionaire-Chapter 440 - 438: Paying the Price
The door opened.
Si Yuhuan was having a video conference with a female business partner.
Xinxin saw it and froze in place.
He’s actually working!
Xinxin awkwardly pulled her lips, "Director Si, I just heard you were injured and wanted to visit..."
Si Yuhuan raised his hand and gestured for silence, "Do you have any other business?"
Xinxin was utterly embarrassed and shook her head repeatedly, "No."
"Then you can leave."
"Alright!" Xinxin was taken aback and quickly exited.
As she passed by Yan Qing, she glared at him, "Why didn’t you stop me?"
"Can I really stop you?"
Xinxin became more furious.
It’s all her fault for being so rash, she wouldn’t dare to do this again.
Once she was gone, Jian Xi came out of the bathroom.
Si Yuhuan ended the video call.
"It’s amazing, being so struck by your wife, why didn’t you show this realization when you were with me!"
She spoke, her words sharp with jealousy.
Si Yuhuan didn’t let her sarcastic tone affect him and retorted, "What? Envious?"
"Ridiculous! With so many men treating me well now, I don’t know what happiness is, how could I envy your petty favors to her!"
Seeing Xinxin just being driven away further confirmed Jian Xi’s suspicions.
Si Yuhuan definitely wasn’t that fond of her.
She intentionally spoke to needle him.
Jian Xi hesitated, then turned around, "Let me go!"
"Impossible!"
She immediately grew angrier.
"The people you’re looking for are already being watched by me, even if you go out now, you won’t be able to see them."
Just one sentence from Si Yuhuan made Jian Xi’s rage completely dissipate, turning into disbelief, "You already know?"
Damn it!
Is there anything he can’t find out!
Yan Qing, standing by, wanted to say that Director Si not only knows everything but is trying to help you preserve the Yaowang Group, you should treat Director Si somewhat better!
His anxiety was pointless, Jian Xi’s next sentence nearly made Si Yuhuan vomit blood again.
"Does your family live by the sea? How come you need to know everything about me, giving the impression you are secretly in love with me! There’s no possibility between us; don’t flatter yourself."
Si Yuhuan’s handsome face visibly darkened.
Yan Qing almost jumped forward to shut Jian Xi’s mouth.
This ancestor really dares to say anything!
Before Director Si erupts, he quickly said, "Madam, madam! Director Si hasn’t spared any effort for Yaowang’s matters..."
"Yan Qing!" Si Yuhuan warned him softly to shut up.
Yan Qing dared not say anything more, continually giving Jian Xi signals.
Jian Xi raised an eyebrow, "Wouldn’t you also want to take this opportunity to step on me?"
Yan Qing felt like he was going to vomit blood.
"It doesn’t matter! After all, you’re ruthless and shameless, it’s not just a day or two; I’m used to it anyway, one more doesn’t make a difference, one less doesn’t matter." She knew Si Yuhuan called Song Xicheng for help, so she spoke like this intending to save some face for both.
She didn’t understand why Si Yuhuan wanted to help.
But she certainly couldn’t accept his assistance!
"Give me the people I need to see! Let’s keep separate waters flowing separately."
Si Yuhuan turned towards the rest area.
There was a small rest area in the VIP ward, only big enough for two people.
Jian Xi, without thinking, rushed in.
She slammed the door shut, nearly to the point of grabbing Si Yuhuan by the collar, "What do you mean? Are you trying to work together with Song Xicheng to destroy me?"
Si Yuhuan glanced down at her clenched fists and her furious demeanor, "Xinxin is outside."
"So what if she’s outside?"
Upon reflection, they were abroad.
If she discovered Si Yuhuan had tricked her earlier, the woman in the room was her.
With Xinxin’s tactics and temperamental ways, she’d undoubtedly kill her.
Jian Xi wouldn’t be a match for her.
She couldn’t help but feel a chill breeze down her spine.
"Fine! You’ve calculated against me!"
She used Xinxin outside to control her from daring to go out.
And then hid the scientists she needed to meet, leaving her no chance to get the most authoritative test results announced publicly, how can one be shameless to this extent!
"If you want the Yaowang Group to remain safe, you can ask me."
"Dream on!"
Jian Xi gritted her teeth and lay back on the hospital bed.
Her head was dizzy, lacking the strength to struggle and leave.
Once she recovered, she was certainly going out, preferably to reveal this bastard’s crimes to the world.
At this moment, Jian Mingcheng called.
"Xixi, how are things? Did you see anyone? What’s the situation?"
Jian Xi hesitated before speaking, glancing back at Si Yuhuan, gritting her molars, "Everything’s going smoothly, it shouldn’t be long before the authoritative test results can be made public, by then Song Xicheng’s slander will naturally be resolved."
"Hmm."
Jian Mingcheng’s voice was heavy.
Jian Xi felt a bad premonition, "Is there something wrong at home?"
Jian Mingcheng didn’t hide it, "Li Bin was attacked on the way to the office, reportedly by a user who bought Yaowang products; due to product quality issues, it nearly resulted in loss of life, the matter caused quite a stir, cyclically reported on the domestic website, your second brother already dispatched people to try to suppress the impact, but the results... are average."
"What? Li Bin was beaten?"
Her entire demeanor instantly became tense, the group indeed matters.
But the people around her are more important! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Daring to abuse Li Bin, Song Xicheng really thought he could squeeze her like a soft persimmon.
Too much!
Jian Xi took a deep breath, coldly asked, "Where was he hit, did he go to the hospital? What’s the diagnosis result?"
"Hit the forehead with a heavy object, got three stitches, the diagnosis result is mild concussion."
The younger sister is already the head of a group, it’s necessary to explain truthfully to let her know the inside story, facilitating her timely handling of work.
This is what a group head should bear in responsibility.
The Jian family brothers indeed pamper Jian Xi, but not blindly.
Jian Xi breathed a sigh of relief, no threat to life, she was reassured, "Thank you, big brother."
Hanging up Jian Mingcheng’s call, Jian Xi immediately phoned Li Bin.
"You’re on leave, not allowed to work for a week, I’ll dispatch marquee personnel to protect you, don’t see anyone, leave the rest to me to handle."
Daring to hit her people, Jian Xi was shaking with anger.
Li Bin anxiously said, "It really isn’t necessary, it’s just a minor injury anyway, moreover Yaowang currently needs manpower, I..."
"Li Bin! Listen to me!" She intensified her tone, the oppressive aura from a superior made Li Bin unable to disobey.
"Alright, as you say."
Li Bin advised, "The opposition doesn’t mean well, determined to destroy Yaowang Group, additionally many opportunistic illegal elements want to take advantage of the situation to gain a share, you need to discern to avoid falling into a trap."
"Alright, I understand."
Ending the call, Jian Xi took a deep look at Si Yuhuan, her fists clenched tighter.
If it were Si Yuhuan, facing such a dead end and desperate situation, what would he do?
As if he could penetrate a woman’s thoughts, Si Yuhuan spoke lightly, "If it were me, whoever dares touch my people, I’d make them pay the appropriate price!"
