"President Han."
Lin Yan raised his eyes, his indifferent yet sharp gaze indifferently looking at Han Yunxi. His thin, knife-like lips slightly parted as he indifferently said, "I believe you already know the price that the Lin Group has offered. It should be the highest."
He paused and stared at Han Yunxi's expression without blinking.
Han Yunxi's expression changed slightly. She pursed her lips and looked around. Finally, her eyes fixed on Lin Yan. She nodded slightly in response to Lin Yan's words.
Lin Yan curled his lips. The price he offered to Shengshi Group was indeed the highest offer in the entire business world.
If Han Yunxi was not stupid, she would definitely choose Lin Yan.
However, what Lin Yan and Ye Zi did not expect was that Han Yunxi shook her head at Lin Yan at this moment.
Lin Yan frowned slightly and his cold gaze suddenly darkened. His dark eyes were like two obsidian as he stared at Han Yunxi coldly and attentively.
Han Yunxi said, "I don't want to work with you."
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes and was silent for a moment. His lips curled into a faint smile and he stood up from his chair unhurriedly. He took Ye Zi's hand and walked out of Han Yunxi's office.
Ye Zi was confused from the beginning to the end. She could not understand why Han Yunxi would reject Lin Yan's offer.
Lin Yan's offer of 600 million was already the highest price he could offer.
From Ye Zi's point of view, Han Yunxi had no reason to reject Lin Yan's offer.
But, she really did it.
Didn't Han Yunxi need money to leave the country?
Why would she reject him?
Ye Zi blinked. She did not notice that Lin Yan, who was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped and Ye Zi bumped into him.
Ye Zi's forehead and Lin Yan's back had intimate contact.
"Ouch!"
Although it did not hurt, Ye Zi suddenly covered her forehead and looked at Lin Yan in a daze.
Lin Yan smiled and rubbed Ye Zi's forehead. "Does it hurt?"
Ye Zi pouted and nodded.
"Are you wondering why Han Yunxi rejected my offer?" Lin Yan seemed to know what Ye Zi was thinking. He raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
Ye Zi did not expect Lin Yan to ask her this. She widened her eyes and did not hide the surprise in them.
Lin Yan curled his lips and smiled. "Because of you."
Ye Zi was even more astonished now. She blinked her eyes and pointed at the tip of her nose. "Because of me?!"
Lin Yan nodded. "She's afraid of you. She's afraid of you. I can even see fear in her eyes."
Fear?!
Ye Zi was at a complete loss. Her appearance was just like a harmless little rabbit. How could it scare people?
She could not figure out why Han Yunxi was afraid of her.
Lin Yan looked at the little lass in front of him, who had sunk into deep thought. He raised his hand and lightly flicked her forehead.
"Ouch!" Ye Zi felt pain again. She stared at Lin Yan with her eyes wide open. "What are you doing?!"
Lin Yan smiled and narrowed his eyes. He held Ye Zi's hand and walked out of Shengshi Group.
With Lin Yan around, Ye Zi even forgot about her work. She was directly shoved into Lin Yan's black Jeep Cherokee. Lin Yan fastened the seatbelt for her and sat in the driver's seat.
"Where are we going?" Ye Zi asked.
"To eat."
Hearing that, Ye Zi secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Ye Zi was a little hungry after the whole morning.
She tightened the seatbelt and gestured to the front. "Let's go."
Lin Yan smiled and did not say anything. He started the car and went to the restaurant.
Lin Yan took Ye Zi to a restaurant by the sea. It was a typical Mediterranean restaurant, and its main business was Mediterranean food. Needless to say, the taste was good. Lin Yan was picky. If the food was not good, he would never bring Ye Zi here.
While Ye Zi was feasting on her food, she felt as if she was in the Mediterranean Sea. In addition, the seaside air with a slight smell of seawater made Ye Zi feel relaxed and happy.
She squinted and opened her arms. Standing outside the huge French window, she felt the sea breeze blowing on her face.
It was already the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lin Yan was worried that Ye Zi would catch a cold in the sea breeze, so he took off his suit jacket and put it on Ye Zi.
"Be careful not to catch a cold." Lin Yan's gentle voice sounded from behind Ye Zi.
Ye Zi turned her head and smiled sweetly. "It's not bad here."
Lin Yan said, "This is a restaurant opened by an old friend of mine. If you like it, I'll bring you here often."
Ye Zi smiled and nodded. Looking out, the sea and the sky were a line. What entered her eyes was a boundless blue. Ye Zi liked the sea very much. She yearned to live by the sea. She always thought that one day, when she no longer had to work, she would open a jewelry shop by the sea and sell her handmade products.
Every morning, when she opened her eyes, she would see such a scenery.
Lin Yan stretched out his arms from behind Ye Zi and wrapped them around her waist. Faintly, Lin Yan could feel a bit of flesh. She was not like when he first met Ye Zi. She was like a firewood girl, bones that could crush people to death.
Lin Yan rested his chiseled chin on Ye Zi's shoulder. He did not say anything. It was rare for him to be able to enjoy a quiet and sweet moment.
There were not many customers in the restaurant to disturb them. At this moment, it was as if time had frozen.
Ye Zi admired the scenery by the sea. Her eyes moved along the coastline. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. Then, she blinked and rubbed her eyes. It was as if she could not believe her eyes.
Lin Yan noticed Ye Zi's strange behavior. He frowned slightly and whispered in her ear, "What's wrong?"
Ye Zi raised her hand and pointed to a tree by the sea. She turned her head to look at Lin Yan.
Lin Yan's lips curled into a faint smile and he nodded slightly.
"You already knew, right?" Ye Zi asked in surprise.
Lin Yan nodded and turned to walk to the bar of the restaurant. He stuffed a CD into Ye Zi's hand. His thin lips opened slightly and he said softly, "There's a computer at the bar. Take your time to look at it."
Ye Zi was a little excited. She hurriedly rushed to the computer and inserted the CD into the computer.
A video was played on the screen. The gloomy sky was covered with thick clouds. It seemed to be within reach. A white car stopped by the sea. The taillights of the car lit up twice. From afar, she could only see a person wandering around the car. After a few hours, Ye Zi saw another figure walking out from behind the tree. Then, the image flashed and there was no more image.
Ye Zi furrowed her brows tightly and stared at the darkened computer screen. After a long while, she raised her eyes to look at Lin Yan, who was leaning on the railing outside the restaurant and smoking.
Ye Zi walked out and came to Lin Yan's side.
Lin Yan smoked a cigarette. A thin layer of smoke flowed out from his mouth and meandered in the air.
"Although there aren't many images, I can see that the person in the image is a woman," Ye Zi said.
Lin Yan stuffed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and turned to look at Ye Zi.
There was a faint smell of tobacco on Lin Yan's body, mixed with the perfume on his body. It smelled good and had a kind of addictive feeling.
Ye Zi's eyes were burning. She looked at Lin Yan without blinking.
The seaside that she saw just now was the crime scene of Xia Shengtian's death. From the video just now, a woman appeared at the time of the crime, and within a few hours, two figures appeared. Although their figures were very similar, Ye Zi could tell that they were not the same person.
The real murderer of Xia Shengtian's case was not the same person. Then, Ye Zi could explain why Han Yunxi had the time to appear at the Fragrance Detective Agency when Xia Shengtian died.
With this major discovery, Ye Zi seemed to be able to solve the mystery of Xia Shengtian's case.
Ye Zi looked up at Lin Yan, and her eyes were filled with peach blossoms. "You knew this from the start, so you brought me to this restaurant?"
Lin Yan did not say anything. He just gently kissed Ye Zi's forehead.
"I want to go to the Municipal Crime Squad." Ye Zi stared at Lin Yan.
Lin Yan nodded slightly. He took Ye Zi's hand and left the restaurant.
The black Jeep Cherokee sped along the seaside road. The trees on the road sped past Ye Zi's eyes one after another. The speed was so fast that it was a blur.
Ye Zi stretched her hand out of the car window.
Drip … drip …
Large droplets of rain the size of soybeans fell from the sky. The originally clear and cloudless sky gradually gathered layers of leaden clouds.
The autumn rain was followed by the cold.
Perhaps the autumn tiger would leave Binhai City after this rain.
Ye Zi was a little disappointed. Seeing that the Jeep Cherokee had entered the city, she felt inexplicably nervous.
She still sent a WeChat message to Chen Mo and sent the video on the computer to Chen Mo's mobile phone.
Chen Mo only replied with an "OK" and did not say anything else.
Just as Ye Zi went to the Municipal Crime Squad, Chen Mo received Ye Zi's WeChat message and went directly to Shengshi Group. However, from Han Yunxi's assistant, he learned that Han Yunxi had changed her flight to the United States in advance.
Chen Mo did not stay for long. He went directly to the airport of Binhai City.
At the airport.
Han Yunxi held the ticket tightly and sat in the departure lounge. Her face was tense.
Her face was like the sky outside the window, as if it was covered by a thick layer of dark clouds. It seemed that a storm would start in the next second.
Han Yunxi looked at the ticket in her hand and then at her watch. She stood up and dragged her suitcase to the gate.
Suddenly, a big hand fell on Han Yunxi's shoulder. She turned her head and saw a cold and stern face in her eyes.
Chen Mo's eyes were cold and firm like a knife. His thin lips slightly opened and he said in a low voice, "Miss Han, you are under arrest. You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be used as evidence in court …" Still worried about not being able to find the latest chapter? Amway a public account: r/d/444
