In the CEO’s office, Shen Yi put down his phone and picked up some documents. He rose to leave and prepare for a meeting.
It wasn’t a particularly important meeting; he estimated that by the time the meeting was over, Wanwan would have arrived with Zhouzhou.
When the meeting ended, Shen Yi checked the time. Only an hour had passed and he hadn’t received any message; they were probably still on the way.
"Is next month’s schedule cleared?" Shen Yi suddenly asked.
Assistant Chen hurriedly nodded and answered, "It’s all arranged. For the appointments that require President Shen’s personal appearance, we’ve scheduled other times. For those that don’t, I will take your place."
"You’ve worked hard. When I return, find some time to take a vacation," Shen Yi nodded, very satisfied with Assistant Chen’s efficiency.
"Okay, thank you, President Shen," Assistant Chen said.
In the midst of conversation, Shen Yi had already returned to his office, continuing his work while waiting for Ye Wanwan to come.
The sound of knocking suddenly rose. Shen Yi thought it was Ye Wanwan, but when he looked up, the person pushing the door open was Assistant Chen.
At this moment, Assistant Chen had a complicated expression as he looked at his boss.
Shen Yi saw the indescribable look on Assistant Chen’s face and slightly furrowed his brow, his tone a bit stern, "What’s wrong?"
After a moment of hesitation and with a complex look, Assistant Chen spoke up truthfully, "Someone from Jiyang Industries has come."
"Jiyang Industries?" Shen Yi thought for a moment, "They came early?"
"No, they just came ahead of time. They’re in the lounge now," Assistant Chen said.
Shen Yi checked the time, "Since they’re here, let’s start early."
Anyway, once he was done with Jiyang Industries’ matters, he didn’t have other urgent work and could go out to eat with Zhouzhou earlier.
"Ask the people from Jiyang Industries to come over, and tell the reception that if Wanwan arrives and we’re not done, have them wait in the lounge for a while."
After speaking, Shen Yi paused for a few seconds before quickly negating his decision, "Never mind, let’s go to the conference room. When Wanwan arrives, ask her to wait in my office."
With that, Shen Yi stood up, ready to head to the conference room for the meeting.
However, just as Shen Yi stood up, Assistant Chen had no choice but to speak, "President Shen, among the people who came from Jiyang Industries, there is Miss Fang Xian."
"Fang Xian?" For a moment, Shen Yi’s mind went blank; he had no recollection of this name. However, it quickly dawned on him who Fang Xian was, and his face darkened at the thought.
Assistant Chen had accompanied Shen Yi to D Country before, so he clearly knew the role Fang Xian played there.
When he saw Fang Xian in the project team from Jiyang Industries, he was also stunned. He even wondered if he had mistaken someone else for her, as many women liked to get plastic surgery nowadays—it could just be a coincidence that she looked similar.
It was only when the other party directly and boldly greeted him that Assistant Chen confirmed it was indeed Fang Xian!
Seeing President Shen’s darkened expression at this moment, Assistant Chen felt that informing his boss ahead of time was a very wise move.
Still, he underestimated the unrestrained anger brewing within Shen Yi at that moment.
In this lifetime, when he encountered Fang Xian in D Country, he had not yet remembered the events of his past life.
