C57 Insidious Calculus

The largest electronics company under the Shen family's control. Today, when the new product was released, Shen Yeyan had to attend and Qiao Xi had requested to accompany him.

When they arrived at the bustling scene, Shen Yiling, who was sitting in the first row, was already leading the team and sitting down. The venue was bustling with noise and excitement, and all the seats were filled with reporters.

There weren't many seats left in the first row. Qiao Xi and Li Ran sat beside Shen Yeyan respectively. As they raised their eyes, Secretary Lin unexpectedly appeared as well. He changed into a set of light and elegant work suit and sat behind Shen Yeyan in the second row.

Next to Qiao Xi was Shen Yiling's team. She didn't know much about Mrs Shen's work arrangements, but she saw a few people beside her bending over to discuss it in whispers.

Her gaze naturally fell on him. Suddenly, she heard Shen Yeyan's dissatisfied reminder, "Don't look randomly."

"Sorry, curious."

"Those who are dead are all full of curiosity."

Qiao Xi understood well what he meant and sat quietly. Occasionally, Shen Yeyan would turn his head to talk to her.

Lin Yinyin sat behind them, staring at the back of Qiao Xi's head in jealousy. She actually seduced Mister Shen in public, truly shameless.

If she wasn't here, she would be sitting next to Shen Yeyan. During her absence, she was the only one who could follow Teacher Shen out.

The press conference hadn't started yet, so Qiao Xi put his bag on the chair and prepared to go to the washroom.

However, after she left, Lin Yinyin also left immediately.

In order to set up the venue, the closest washroom was sealed off. Qiao Xi had no choice but to walk along the long corridor and watch the signboard the whole way.

When he entered the ladies room, it was empty, quiet, away from the hubbub.

Moments later, Qiao Xi stood in front of the pond and washed her hands. She looked at her reflection in her glasses. She seemed to have gained weight during recuperation, her cheeks were slightly full, her complexion was rosy and shiny. She raised her hand to pinch her chubby face, muttering about losing weight as she opened the door.

It was strange that the half-open door should have been pulled three times, but he did not even use all his strength to open it.

Qiao Xi subconsciously reached into her pocket, only to realize that she didn't bring her phone with her.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down. Her brain was working quickly. Was today an accident or was it man-made? What was his goal?

Qiao Xi walked around in the bathroom and pulled on it a few more times without giving up. Still, there was no reaction.

She shouted a few times at the door, but no one answered. This place was far away, and it was time for the press conference to start. Almost no one came.

Shen Ye An looked at his watch several times. It had already been 15 minutes. The press conference had already begun. Qiao Xi still hadn't returned, and his phone was ringing in his bag.

Li Ran also noticed Shen Yeyan's distraction and reminded him in a low voice, "You can speak up later."

"Alright, I'll go out for a while."

Li Ran was shocked, but he couldn't stop it.

Shen Yiling sat below the stage and watched as Shen Yeyan left. The corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer. After saying a few words to someone beside him, he also stood up and left.

Shen Yeyan followed his instructions and walked along the long corridor. At the end of the corridor, there was a sign in front of the ladies' restroom, indicating that they should not enter. He walked around it and continued walking forward.

Secretary Lin, who had just finished putting on her makeup, smiled sweetly with bright lips, "Mister Shen, Miss Qiao is not inside."

Shen Yeyan knitted his brows and turned his head away without saying a word.

Lin Yinyin, who was standing behind them, gnashed her teeth in anger. She did not even give Lin Yinyin a glance as she twisted her waist and returned to the meeting place.

Shen Yeyan searched the entire floor but couldn't find Qiao Xi. He then went upstairs, but still didn't find Qiao Xi.

When Li Ran called, Shen Ye An replied in a perfunctory manner.

When he returned, he passed by the washroom he had just repaired. Suddenly, Shen Yeyan called out from the doorway.

Qiao Xi heard a sound outside and immediately jumped down from the pool. "Mr. Shen, I'm inside."

Shen Ye An raised his hand to pick up the lock. It was already locked. He either had the key or it was directly locked.

"Qiao Xi, wait for me."

Li Ran, who was below the stage, was extremely anxious. He was about to arrive at Mr. Shen's place to speak. The reporters from the media were all waiting for him, but Mr. Shen hadn't come back yet.

He called again, and Mr Shen hung up.

He anxiously stood up from his seat. When Shen Ye Ling saw him, he coldly laughed and said: "Assistant Li, where is my second brother? Not yet? "

Li Ran was neither humble nor haughty as he replied, "No need to trouble young master to worry."

"That's not right. After all, we are family, so we can't just stand by and watch. If he can't come, then I'll go up on his behalf."

"Young Master is overthinking it."

Li Ran is also a hard nut to crack. Sooner or later, I will kill him off by Shen Ye An's side.

The host on stage had almost finished his lines. Li Ran could not wait any longer. He turned around and was about to look outside when Secretary Lin stopped him. He smiled and volunteered.

"Assistant Li, I'll go look for Mister Shen while you're here. I know where it is."

Li Ran pondered for a few seconds. "Hurry up and go." He was going to stay at the scene and watch.

"Alright, I'll bring Mister Shen here immediately."

Lin Yinyin happily ran over while twisting her waist. However, before she could find them, she saw Mr. Shen and Qiao Xi walking over from the other side of the corridor. She immediately jogged over.

"Mister Shen, the press conference is about to begin."

"En!" Shen Yeyan replied and quickened his pace. He didn't forget to wait for Qiao Xi. Her leg injury had just healed, so he didn't dare to walk too quickly.

"Mister Shen, you go first."

Lin Yinyin stood in front of Qiao Xi in jealousy. "Mister Shen, let's leave quickly. We won't make it in time."

Shen Ye An turned his head and looked at Lin Yinyin with a dark expression. He purposely took a step back.

Lin Yinyin, on the other hand, wanted to get closer. She deliberately leaned her body over, but was abruptly stopped by Qiao Xi behind her. "Secretary Lin, go to the venue and tell Assistant Li that Mr. Shen will be there shortly."

"Miss Qiao, you should take your time. Mister Shen and I will go over first."

Shen Yeyan pursed his lips in displeasure and leaned to the side. "Secretary Lin's heels are too high. Did you sprained your foot?"

Lin Yinyin's face turned completely red. Having her little scheme exposed, she opened her mouth and stuttered.

Li Ran watched as the host came down from the stage to announce the statement of the person in charge of the Shen family. Shen Ye An still hadn't arrived, but Shen Ye Ling stood up with a smile.

Although he was anxious, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't stop the young master, as the media was already there.

Shen Ye Ling walked past Li Ran with confidence and gouged him out with his eyes. Then, he walked a few steps to the foot of the stairs. Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

Shen Yeyan immediately took off his jacket and threw it to Qiao Xi. He quickly strode forward in his white shirt, his legs wrapped in his pants were big and stable, and he walked past the stiff Shen Yiling. He patted Qiao Yifan's shoulder and said, "Big Brother, you don't need to bother with this sort of thing. You should go and rest."

Shen Ye Ling stood there stiffly. Since the media was still there and he couldn't flare up, he could only put on a fake smile.

"Brother, you really came at the right time. Next time, it's best if you come early. Otherwise, you'll look bad when you open the window."

"What big brother said is right. I will be more careful in the future so that no one will take advantage of me."
