A certain someone is starting to get dissatisfied.
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips. He Shaochen's words touched her, but she still didn't want He Shaochen to break up with his mother because of her.
Forget it, this topic was too heavy.
Qiao Qiao didn't want to affect her mood. Anyway, she was in J Country and was so far away from Mother He. There wouldn't be many chances for them to meet again. Qiao Qiao shook her head and threw away those bad thoughts. She smiled at He Shaochen and said, "I'm very happy that you're willing to go to this extent for me."
He Shaochen held Qiao Qiao's hand and insisted on interlocking his fingers with hers. He promised, "I'll treat you even better in the future. I won't make you sad anymore!"
"Really? Your words are always untrustworthy. "Qiao Qiao pouted.
"I said this is the last time, so it's the last time!"
"Hehe, I believe you, okay? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Although He Shaochen appeared to be very strong, he was very nervous. He knew that he had done many wrong things, some of which were fatal blows to Qiao Qiao's trust. He wasn't sure if Qiao Qiao would still trust him like before.
Scars weren't so easily erased. Even if Qiao Qiao was now calm and collected, He Shaochen still felt that she was forcefully hiding her pain. That was why he stubbornly brought Xia Xi over and explained everything clearly, not leaving a trace of doubt.
Now, all he could do was treat her well, as well as he could, so well that she would forget all the unhappiness in the past.
When Xia Xi saw He Shaochen and Qiao Qiao kissing scene, she suddenly felt a little envious. The two of them were a perfect match. Qiao Qiao was completely different from the sinister and vicious image in the rumors. She was clearly a queen, but she didn't put on any airs. She clearly knew that she cooperated with Mother He to almost steal her husband, but she was magnanimous and forgave her.
Compared to her, she was too despicable.
Qiao Qiao noticed Xia Xi's uneasy behavior. She comforted her, "Don't worry, we will save your brother. You are also a victim. I heard that Shaochen even hit you with a car. Consider it as compensation for your loss. We will continue to pay for your brother's medical expenses until he recovers."
Xia Xi's eyes suddenly widened. She looked at Qiao Qiao in astonishment. She thought that it was fortunate that she wouldn't be held responsible, but who knew that this person would help her pay for her brother's medical expenses? When Xia Xi thought of how she had actually given birth to He Shaochen's child, she was so ashamed that she wanted to crawl into a hole and hide her face.
She was too bad. She wanted to be the queen's substitute. She had already lost in terms of character.
Xia Xi sniffed and bowed to Qiao Qiao again. "Your Majesty, thank you … No, thank you for your tolerance. If there is anything you can use me for in the future, I will do my best!"
"Okay."
Qiao Qiao didn't refuse. She realized that Xia Xi was a good girl. Perhaps she had been blinded by money before, but she wasn't a bad person. She believed that people were born good, and she was willing to give Xia Xi a chance to start over. Forgiving people was much easier than resenting them.
Before Xia Xi left, she held back and mustered the courage to interrupt. "Um, Mr. He, can I say something?"
He Shaochen glanced at her. "What else?"
"Mr. He, can you take back your order and let Secretary-General Ling return to He Clan's headquarters again? I am sure that Secretary-General Ling is loyal to you. " Xia Xi had seen Lingyu yesterday. She knew that he had been kicked out of He Clan by Mother He. She felt that there must be more to it.
"Lingyu? What happened to him? " He Shaochen came to J Country in a hurry. He didn't know that Mother He had brought up He Clan's matter with Lingyu. He even planned to settle the score with him later.
When Qiao Qiao thought of Ling Yu, she couldn't help but get angry. When she thought of Ling Yu's words that day, she really wanted to beat him up.
However, this bastard was loyal to his master. He had always been on He Shaochen's side. Qiao Qiao looked at He Shaochen and said, "Why did you fire him? Although he has a bad mouth, he is still loyal to you. "
"Lingyu might have been bribed by my mother. I was planning to go back and settle the score with him."
"Secretary Ling has been fired by Madam He! He must have been forced by Madam He too! " Xia Xi had a good impression of Lingyu. Compared to He Shaochen, she liked to get along with Lingyu more. After all, He Clan treated her well and taught her a lot of things. She didn't want Lingyu to be kicked out of He Clan. It was unfair to him.
"I will deal with this matter."
He Shaochen gave a vague answer.
Whether or not Lingyu had betrayed him, he would investigate it thoroughly.
However, the results of the investigation were out of his expectations. Lingyu had already taken up a position elsewhere. He had also made it clear that he wouldn't return to He Clan.
"Are you sure about this? He really doesn't plan to return to He Clan? " He Shaochen noticed that the company Lingyu had gone to was a new technology company. This company had been fighting with He Clan for business. The recent losses in the electronic technology industry were related to this company.
Lingyu had actually gone to He Clan's rival company.
"We have confirmed it multiple times. Lingyu has no intention of returning to He Clan. He is so heartless that it is as if he had planned this from the start."
He Shaochen was silent for a moment. Then, he said faintly, "Let's stop here. You can leave first."
"He Shaochen, because of your scandal, the stocks of a few companies under He Clan have started to fall. If this continues, it will probably break past the lowest point of last year." Another secretary said worriedly.
The impact of the scandal was greater than expected. In addition, the news from Holy Glory Palace had been blocked. He Shaochen and Xia Xi's scandal was simply a betrayal of their Queen to the people of J Country. Some irrational citizens even started to attack He Clan's companies in J Country.
There were even some who clamored to sweep He Clan's products out of J Country. He Shaochen was sure that the people from the J Organisation had definitely played a role in adding fuel to the fire. However, they had indeed succeeded. Now, He Clan could be said to be facing internal and external troubles.
Behind the calm in Holy Glory Palace, there was an uproar brewing.
"Shaochen, did something happen?" Qiao Qiao saw that He Shaochen had gone out for a while. She was a little worried.
When He Shaochen saw Qiao Qiao and the two children, a smile appeared on his face. The haze in his heart seemed to have been swept away. He walked over and sat beside Qiao Qiao. Looking at the two children who were still sleeping soundly on the bed, he said, "There's a small problem in the company. It's not a big deal. Don't worry."
"Really?"
Even after hearing He Shaochen's words, Qiao Qiao still couldn't completely relax. She knew that He Shaochen had always said that he was very busy. This time, she had unexpectedly given birth prematurely. He Shaochen had specially rushed to J Country. After so many days, his right-hand man Lingyu wasn't around. She couldn't help but feel that something bad was going to happen.
"By the way, have you reinstated Lingyu?" With Lingyu around, at least the situation could be controlled.
He Shaochen poked his son's cheek and said casually, "He jumped ship."
"Jumped ship?" Qiao Qiao thought that she had heard wrongly. She was stunned and still couldn't believe it. "Lingyu jumped ship? How could that be? Is there a mistake somewhere? "
Lingyu was considered loyal to He Shaochen. How could he jump ship?
"Everyone has their own ambitions. Maybe he has already found a better path. He is indeed very capable, but He Clan can still survive without him. He Conglomerate doesn't have anything else, but he has a lot of talents. You don't have to think too much. It's fine." He Shaochen comforted.
"Is it really fine?"
"It's fine!"
He Shaochen said firmly. Qiao Qiao didn't say anything else.
However, her brows were still furrowed.
He Shaochen noticed Qiao Qiao's furrowed brows. He gently put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his embrace. "Don't think too much. With me around, He Clan won't fall into chaos."
That's right. There was no problem that He Shaochen couldn't solve.
Qiao Qiao comforted herself in her heart. She leaned into his warm and reliable chest and felt his strong heartbeat. She really wanted to lean on him like this forever. However, Qiao Qiao knew that it was impossible.
She slowly propped herself up and pursed her lips. "Shaochen, go back to Country A."
"You want me to go back to Country A?" He Shaochen frowned.
"You are the CEO of He Clan. It's impossible for you to not go back. I don't want to delay your work because of me." In fact, she didn't mean what she said. Qiao Qiao really hoped that He Shaochen could always be by her side. However, she couldn't be so willful. He Shaochen had his own responsibilities. She couldn't selfishly keep him by her side.
He Shaochen looked at her quietly. His dark eyes were piercingly cold, as if he wanted to see through her. Qiao Qiao lowered her head and didn't want to look at him.
She was afraid that He Shaochen would see the evasiveness in her eyes.
"I'm not going back!"
He Shaochen's voice rang out above her head. Qiao Qiao looked up abruptly and asked in astonishment, "What did you just say?"
"I said I'm not going back!" He Shaochen repeated.
"How can you not go back? Tens of thousands of people in He Clan are waiting for you to go back and give orders. How can you not go back? " Qiao Qiao felt that she had fallen into a strange circle. She didn't want He Shaochen to leave, but she had to persuade He Shaochen to go back.
Why was she so contradictory?
He Shaochen raised his chin slightly and still looked as arrogant as ever. "So what if there are tens of thousands of people? In my eyes, they're not as important as my wife and child. You're still in confinement. I won't leave you! "
"I have so many servants around me. It's the same whether you're here or not …"
"It's the same whether I'm here or not?" He Shaochen narrowed his eyes and suddenly exuded a terrifying aura. "Qiao Qiao, I dare you to say that again."
Why was this damned woman so insensible?
Who did she think he was staying here for? She even wanted him to go back to Country A!
Qiao Qiao knew that she had said something wrong. She shrank her neck and whispered, "I'm just worried about you."
"You don't have to worry about me. If I can't solve such a small matter, what kind of man am I?" He Shaochen held Qiao Qiao in his arms again and said seriously, "I know what I'm doing. In my opinion, the company's matters are not as important as yours. During your confinement, I want to spend more time with you. Can't I?"
Why not?
Of course she was willing, but she didn't want to be a burden to He Shaochen.
Qiao Qiao reached out and hugged He Shaochen's waist. She rubbed her head in his arms and said in a muffled voice, "Shaochen, actually I don't want you to leave me at all."
"Then don't say anything about me leaving!"
"… Okay."
Qiao Qiao smiled. This Young Master was still so domineering. She didn't like domineering and self-righteous people at all. But why was she so obsessed with this man?
The two of them were intimate for a while. Qiao Qiao suddenly felt a hand roaming around her body.
The corners of her mouth twitched. She pressed the hand down and looked up to glare at He Shaochen. She said in embarrassment and anger, "What are you doing?"
He Shaochen didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, he looked a little resentful. He opened his thin lips and said, "Qiao Qiao, do you know that I haven't touched you since you were pregnant?"
