In the Chairman’s Office.

The curtain was closed, and not a single ray of sunlight could find its way in. The only object that could illuminate her way was a lamp, under whose dim light, she could barely discern the person behind the desk.

She wouldn’t have recognized Yan Xiuyan if it wasn’t for her unique, gentle yet overbearing temperament. Only today did Yan Xiuya show a trace of exhaustion.

Even during the financial crisis that swept the globe, although many corporations went bankrupt and hers was in the red, she wasn’t as desperate as she was at the moment.

It was as if this woman possessed the capacity of Wonder Woman. Leading her employees, she managed to turn the tide and stand on top of the world.

She approached Yan Xiuya. The desolate figure alone was enough to arouse her concern.

She was anxious to ask the lady what had happened.

“Take your seat on the sofa, please.”

Without her usual decisiveness, Yan Xiuya sounded a little sad.

The exalted queen suddenly became a tender woman.

Following her suggestion, Si Wan obediently sat on the sofa like a child.

“The divorce agreement between you and Ming is on the desk. He already signed it, and you can sign it whenever you want.”

Her voice was icy cold.

Was it the divorce agreement that made Yan Xiuya feel so sad?

But wasn’t this what they had been expecting?

Instead of reading the document on the desk, Si Wan looked up, trying to see the look on Yan Xiuya’s face. But however hard she tried, she couldn’t see it clearly. A blurry and motionless figure was all she got.

Recently, Si Wan had been thinking about her divorce with Gong Siming. Now with the divorce agreement right before her eyes, somehow she felt quite disturbed.

At the sight of Yan Xiuya’s solitary figure, Si Wan seemed to have found the answer.

Picking up the divorce agreement from the table, Si Wan walked slowly toward Yan Xiuya’s desk.

She pushed the divorce agreement gently to Yan Xiuya, who slowly raised her head.

A trail of tears could still be seen on her face. Si Wan felt she was almost blinded by the refraction of the light on her teardrops.

Why? But she hadn’t signed it yet.

Whatever the reason was, Si Wan felt distressed for Yan Xiuya.

Her parents passed away when she was little. She still remembered how Gong Yanchen and Yan Xiuya took care of her just like her biological parents.

If it hadn’t been for that accident, they would still have been living happily as a family.

In fact, it was also her persistence that led to such a situation.

She was not willing to make Yan Xiuya feel even worse.

“Mom, you can keep the divorce agreement, and when you need me to sign it, just tell me.”

Swirling tears instantly trickled down, and Yan Xiuya held Si Wan in her arms. Like a loving mother, she suppressed her sobbing and stroke Si Wan’s hair.

“Good girl, we all owe you!”

They hadn’t been so intimate for a long time. This feeling of being loved was extremely nice.

“Mom, please don’t worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be the same.”

Feeling reassured, Yan Xiuya was deeply moved.

She patted Si Wan on the shoulder.

“Kid, it’s all up to you, and feel free to sign it whenever you want. You should keep it yourself.”

Yan Xiuya stuffed the divorce agreement into Si Wan’s hands and spoke with gratitude.

Looking at the divorce agreement in her hand, Si Wan had mixed feelings.

“Mom has faith in you!”

The determined look on Yan Xiuya’s face brought Si Wan a lot of warmth, making her stir from her resolve.

Wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes, Yan Xiuya smiled.

“Alright, enough with the sentiment, you can get back to work.”

Yan Xiuya looked at the dazed Si Wan and spoke with a smile.

“I have some business to discuss with Lin, tell him to get in, and afterwards I still have a meeting to attend.”

In a daze, Si Wan merely said “Um” and walked out with the divorce agreement in her hand.

When she got out of the door, Zhang Qilin was nowhere to be found.

Even the secretary didn’t know his whereabouts.

Luckily, Si Wan didn’t stay in the army for nothing. For the sake of Gong Siming, she once begged Si Huating to allow her to stay in the agent boot camp for some time.

The rest of her abilities might be mediocre, but her detecting skills were pretty good.

She reflected that Zhang Qilin had received a call. Needless to say, he must have found himself a quiet place.

No other places were quieter than the conference room.

She intended to go and call him, but since the divorce agreement was still in her hand, she had to call Xiaoyu instead.

As a well-deserved capable assistant, Xiaoyu arrived within minutes.

Gasping for breath, she rushed to Si Wan.

“Si… Director Si, what… what’s the matter?”

Xiaoyu’s threatening manner made her look as if she was going to battle.

Looking at Xiaoyu, Si Wan didn’t know whether she should cry or laugh, and her bad mood vanished immediately.

“Don’t be so anxious, I just want you to go to the conference room and tell Junior Master Lin to go to the Chairman’s Office asap.”

Xiaoyu rolled her eyes as she thought Junior Master Lin did something bad to Si Wan. It turned out she was in such a hurry for just a trivial matter.

Since she was the boss, Xiaoyu didn’t have a choice.

“Huh, why don’t you go?”

Asked Xiaoyu aloud toward Si Wan’s receding figure.

“I have something more important to attend to, and thanks for your help. Dinner’s on me.”

Without looking back, Si Wan waved and stepped into the elevator.

“Sounds fair to me.”

Feeling delighted at the thought of a free meal, Xiaoyu instantly showed a beaming smile.

Having collected herself, she slowly walked toward the conference room and was about to knock on the door.

The door was opened, and Xiaoyu was physically taken aback, her hand still raised in the air.

“Ther’s no need to urge me, I’ll be there in a minute, thanks.”

His voice was as gentle and attractive as that of a midnight broadcaster, in which she couldn’t help indulging herself.

Besides, his face looked perfect from every angle. Gosh, why did she feel her heart was already in her throat?

This man had already reached the door of the Chairman’s Office. But when he looked back, Xiaoyu was still standing there in a trance.

He shook his head gracefully.

“You can go back and tell Director Si that I plan to invite her to dinner tonight.”

Zhang Qilin then turned around and entered Yan Xiuya’s office.

Like a nympho, Xiaoyu bounced all the way back.

As soon as he stepped inside, Zhang Qilin readily turned on the lights.

He saw the elegant and noble Yan Xiuya got swollen eyes. This woman had already had her facial expression under control.

“Ming is in danger.”

They said in one voice.

Immediately, they revealed the same indifference and murderous intent on their faces.
