Chapter 408: Interrogation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Swallowing the last sentence, Xin Xin stared at her coldly, as if she would kill her if she didn’t answer!
How could the female employee be Xin Xin’s match? She trembled slightly under Xin Xin’s gaze before she cowered and replied, “It wasn’t someone who told me! I heard it from my uncle at home. He was drunk at that time and said that the An Corporation had already been investigated by the police recently. It was only a matter of time before An Nan ‘went in’! Moreover, this matter has something to do with you. You and An Nan are birds of a feather. Sooner or later, you’ll harm our Starlight and Mr. Chen!”
“Bullsh*t…”
“Ahhh! Don’t hit me. I was wrong!”
Xin Xin’s angry roar was interrupted by the female employee’s exclamation. At this moment, the door to the water room was pushed open by someone outside!
Hearing the familiar voice behind her, Xin Xin was so angry that she almost exploded on the spot.
“Xin Xin! Calm down!” Chen Yuan said.
As Chen Yuan spoke, he stepped forward and separated Xin Xin and the female employee. He turned around and glanced coldly at the people outside the door. He said sternly, “What are you looking at? Have you finished your work? Get lost!”
After saying that, he grabbed Xin Xin’s hand. Before he left, he looked coldly at the female employee who was trembling in fear. After thinking for a while, he warned, “Xin Xin didn’t do anything to you. Don’t spout nonsense after you go out! If I hear any more rumors, you and your uncle don’t have to come to the company anymore, understand?”
When the female employee heard this, she instantly panicked. She wanted to explain something to Chen Yuan, but Chen Yuan pulled Xin Xin and turned to leave, not giving her any chance to speak.
The Starlight employees at the entrance of the pantry dispersed like birds after Chen Yuan’s expression changed. They did not dare to behave atrociously in front of the furious “tiger” at all!
Chen Yuan was able to control a company like Starlight at such a young age, so his tactics were naturally not amiable. Everyone had already understood it a year ago.
With a bang, Chen Yuan slammed the door of his office and let go of Xin Xin.
He looked down at Xin Xin in silence. After a while, he said, “Can’t you behave yourself these few days? I’m already so annoyed by the matter between you and An Nan. Can you make me feel more relaxed? If I didn’t stop you in time just now, would you still want to attack her directly in the company? How did you become like this now, Xin Xin?”
Xin Xin remained silent under Chen Yuan’s questioning. She lowered her head and her eyes slowly turned red.
After all, she was the girl he liked. It was impossible for Chen Yuan not to feel sorry for Xin Xin.
After taking a few deep breaths, he paced around on the spot. In the end, he softened his voice and comforted her. “I’m sorry, baby. I shouldn’t have said that about you. Don’t be angry, okay? Tell me, why did you quarrel with them there? I know you’re not an impulsive person. There must be something else, right?”
Xin Xin did not have many tricks to deal with Chen Yuan, but they were all extremely effective. That was the current situation.
Her eyes were red as she looked up at Chen Yuan, who had softened his temper. When she spoke in a hoarse voice, tears streamed down her face. “Don’t you know why? They’ve already stepped on my pride and insulted me. Can’t I be angry? Do you think I’ll keep swallowing my anger?”
“It’s fine if it’s in front of Jian Tan and Xia Wei. I know you don’t want to be enemies with them, but this is your company! Are you going to let your employees bully me like this, Chen Yuan? You even said that I’ve changed. Who exactly has changed between us? Didn’t you say that there’s a way to resolve these things? Do you still remember what you told me when you brought me down from Talent Mountain?”
As if she had fallen deeply in love, Xin Xin could no longer hide the grievance and depression in her heart. She suddenly vented it all out at Chen Yuan.
She cried so pitifully that outsiders could not help but pity her, let alone Chen Yuan, who treated her as a treasure!
Chen Yuan’s heart ached terribly. He gently pulled her into his arms and said in an apologetic and guilty voice, “I’m sorry, baby. It’s my fault! I shouldn’t have shouted at you, and I shouldn’t have let those people speak ill of you behind your back. I’ll get them all to get out of Starlight later and never appear in front of you again. Is that okay?”
How could Xin Xin be so easy to coax? Her true motive was not that simple!
She pushed Chen Yuan away with all her might.. Tears fell freely, and her expression was filled with pain and unwillingness…
