"I..." Xia Yanxi looked embarrassed, she thought she was just making a joke, but she didn't expect to touch his Ni Lin again.

"Give me the answer within ten seconds, or—" Ji Beimu's casual smile turned cold, and his voice was threatening.

Xia Yanxi's expression also became serious, and she thought quickly, "I'm not lying to you, I just said something to worry about your misunderstanding."

She told him what she had just said to Lin Shuang. Ji Beimu lowered his eyes and said indifferently, "You really know how to think about me, and you actually know how to test her reaction."

The expression on his face was faint, Xia Yanxi couldn't figure out whether he was praising her or mocking her.

She could only speak out her thoughts truthfully, "I feel that Secretary Lin is very strange these days, especially when the other secretaries were punished just now."

The girl narrowed her eyes slightly, and Lin Shuang's appearance just now appeared in her mind.

Seeing her sharp look, Ji Beimu's eyes flashed a flash of admiration.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

There was a knock on the office door, and Xia Yanxi finally realized it, and hurriedly walked away from him while he wasn't paying attention.

His subordinates had something to report to him, so Ji Beimu didn't bother with her anymore and continued to work.

Late at night, Lin Shuang changed clothes and came to a manor.

As soon as she got out of the car, she was led in by the guard at the gate.

A man was sitting on the sofa in the living room. The man was wearing a peaked cap and a mask, revealing only a pair of deep black eyes.

Lin Shuang stood in front of him, her attitude was more respectful than when she treated Ji Beimu, "Boss, I seem to be being targeted by Miss Xia."

"Xia Yanxi?" The man swirled the red wine in the goblet, and asked with interest, "Why are you being targeted?"

Lin Shuang truthfully told what Xia Yanxi told her in the tea room today.

"Oh—interesting." After the man heard it, his voice was still calm.

"Boss, should we change the plan? If Ms. Xia finds out my identity, we may not be able to carry out all the follow-up preparations." Lin Shuang frowned deeply, with a sad expression on her face.

The man raised his eyebrows, "How to avoid being discovered by them, isn't it a problem that you should solve yourself?"

Hearing this, Lin Shuang's face gradually turned pale, and she lowered her head timidly.

In fact, she also knows the temper of the boss, and she dare not disturb him easily with small things.

Originally, she didn't take Xia Yanxi seriously, she just thought of her as a useless vase.

But Xia Yanxi's eyes today——

There was silence in the living room for a while, and the man's voice sounded again, "The plan can continue, as for Xia Yanxi...I will deal with her myself."

After hearing his words, Lin Shuang's tense expression eased a little.

She carefully described Ji Beimu's itinerary these days and the development of Tanglin Group.

At the end, the man's tone was a little cold, "I want to hear more than that."

Cold sweat broke out on Lin Shuang's forehead, "I know the purpose of you sending me to be with Ji Beimu all the year round, but he is thoughtful, and only Zhao Bin can access the confidential documents in the company, so... "

boom!
Before she finished speaking, the man threw the wine glass at her.

Scarlet wine splashed all over her body, and the goblet fell to her feet and was smashed.

Lin Shuang didn't dare to dodge at all, so she could only bury her head lower.

"Lin Shuang, don't forget who gave you this life. If you can't create useful value for me, then what is the use of your life in this world?" The man's words made no secret of his belittlement of her .

Lin Shuang bit her lip, not daring to respond at all.

Three years ago, her father failed to start a business and owed a lot of debts, and once wanted to sell her to an old man.

Those old men were perverted and ruthless, and in the end it was the man in front of her who rescued her.

The man walked around the coffee table, walked up to her, pinched her chin to force her to look up, and said word by word: "You are a dog by my side now, remember? If you can't get it within a week, I want to What do you think will end up with what you want?"

The strength of his fingers was so heavy that Lin Shuang's chin felt a pain, but he didn't dare to resist at all.

She trembled, trying to find her voice: "I see."

Leaving the manor, Lin Shuang's legs were weakening.

Thinking of what the man said just now, her expression gradually became serious.

She has no way out, the plan can only succeed and not fail!
In the office, Xia Yanxi propped her head with one hand, staring at the man who was still sitting at the desk serious about his work.

Sleepiness strikes, her head keeps slipping from the palm of her hand, and her drowsy appearance finally attracted Ji Beimu's scrutiny, "Very sleepy?"

"It's already three o'clock in the morning." Xia Yanxi managed to pull herself together, looking at him with curiosity, "But you go to bed late and get up early every day, can your body take it?"

"Are you questioning my energy?" Ji Beimu's expression was full of meaning.

Xia Yanxi blinked, why did she feel that this man's eyes are easy to make people dream about?

She pursed her lips, "I didn't."

But Ji Beimu didn't want to end the topic, "If there are other things to do, I can sleep less."

Other things?

Xia Yanxi had a picture in her mind, and the blush on her cheeks spread to the base of her neck.

Ji Beimu narrowed his eyes slightly, with a half-smile, "What did you think of?"

"No! I didn't think about anything!" Xia Yanxi stood up with a firm expression.

"Hold your ears and steal your bell." The man's thin lips raised, and his voice was a little pleasant.

this man!
Xia Yanxi pursed her lips, feeling that his words were really hard to answer, and she couldn't find the right words to refute for a long time.

However, staring at Ji Beimu's slightly gentle face now, she looked a little dazed.

Since he lost his memory in that car accident, how long has it been since she saw him show such a gentle smile to her?
Ji Beimu noticed that her gaze was always on him, but he didn't care.

He closed the documents in front of him, stood up on crutches, and slowly approached her, "It's three o'clock in the morning and you still don't leave, do you want to use this excuse to rely on me again?"

"I didn't!" Xia Yanxi frowned.

If he hadn't been forcing himself to work overtime with him before, how could she stay here so late today?
But since he had agreed to let her go, Xia Yanxi couldn't get tired of it.

After all, Xia Jinyuan was still waiting for her at home, and she was worried about letting him stay at home with a child.

As soon as the girl walked to the door of the office, the man's slightly deep voice came over, "Beware of the people you should watch out for."

After he finished speaking, he didn't seem to intend to explain too much, and went straight to the rest room.

Lin Shuang's face appeared in Xia Yanxi's mind, and her expression became serious.
