Xiaoshi became more and more aware of what had happened¡ªher worst nightmare ever.
A pang of regret rose in her heart, and then, overwhelming shock and fear seized her mind. This made her almost lose the ability to think and act, but she gradually gave up resistance under the strong restraint of the young man by instinct, and let him hold her shoulders, half-carried and half-dragged like a walking dead.
However, her sight was always locked on the figure surrounded by the light cluster through the occlusion.
The stern man stands proudly, with a magnanimous demeanor. Surrounded by a crowd of people and cameras, he walks forward, ignoring everything around him. Even his steps are not slowed down by people or machines blocking the way.
Such a strong and compelling aura made the reporters overwhelmed, and they all automatically stepped out of the way.
Zhou Shaoting calmly and calmly walked past the flashing lights and the sound of shutters on both sides, just like going to a red carpet appointment for a celebration banquet.
Xiao Shi's tears slipped into the mohair scarf and stuck to her cheeks, itching and burning.
She watched Zhou Shaoting walk out of the revolving door, and the reporters chased after him, and the few remaining were still pressing the shutters on her and Jin Xin persistently.
The expression on Jin Xin's face was already ugly, as if he was about to kill someone, but the reporters ignored it blankly.
Suddenly, Xiao Shi felt that her body was being taken violently. Through the gap, she saw that Jin Xin had freed one arm and grabbed the neck camera of a male reporter steadily and accurately. , pulled violently.
Amidst the exclamation of a group of reporters, there was an ear-splitting sound of a machine bursting. The sound was quickly diluted by the empty hall, and the surroundings became silent in an instant.
"Get the hell out of here!" Jin Xin gritted his teeth and growled, making Xiaoshi's eardrums tingle from the shock.
Several reporters were also intimidated by the situation. Perhaps some people were still a little unconvinced, but those who know current affairs are brilliant, so they also withdrew tacitly.
The male reporter whose camera was broken kept his eyes fixed on a piece of parts on the ground, with a panicked and regretful expression. When he heard that he was let go, he hurriedly picked up the broken camera, and trotted away.
The surroundings finally cleared up, and Xiao Shi's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and she lost all strength, leaning back on Jin Xin's shoulder.
Jin Xin held her arm tightly, conveying silent support and comfort, but the fire simmering in her heart hadn't come out yet, she glared at the people who stopped to watch the fun, and shouted: "What are you looking at! "
He is not as good-mannered as his elder brother, if you make him anxious, it doesn't matter who you are!
Jin Xin helped Xiaoshi to stop a taxi, and before getting in the car, he looked around vigilantly to make sure that there were no boring reporters following him, and then got into the car with confidence.
He purposely sat side by side with Xiaoshi in the back seat, because he saw that Xiaoshi was in a bad mood and wanted to give her some support and comfort.
The car had already started, and Xiao Shi was still sitting motionless, without taking off the scarf covering his head, covering his nose and eyes. The driver tremblingly glanced at them several times in the rearview mirror, worried that he would be involved in kidnapping or trafficking in women.
Fortunately, the young man was dressed in a neat suit and looked talented, and the woman who was more stern than her breasts didn't show any reluctance. Only then did the driver bravely press the meter and ask them where they were going very politely.
Jin Xin looked at the masked woman beside her, but there was still no reaction at all. She sighed secretly, and turned sideways to help her wrap the scarf off.
Seeing the sun again, Xiaoshi took a deep breath, moved his eyes, as if he had finally recovered a bit, and said to Jin Xin in a low voice: "Thank you."
Jin Xin did not respond to her politeness, but only asked her: "Where are you going?"
Xiaoshi weakly reported the name of the road - the address of her current rental house. The voice was too thin, so Jin Xin had to repeat it to the driver.
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Xiao Shi, hesitant to speak several times, and finally couldn't help asking: "Xiao Shi, who told you that your eldest brother is at that hotel tonight?"
Xiaoshi looked at him puzzled. Just now Zhou Shaoting questioned her in the same nervous tone. Why is Jin Xin still holding on to this question now? Who said it, does it matter?
Seeing that she was silent, Jin Xin frowned and pondered, her expression became more and more dignified, and suddenly she asked sharply, "Is it Hou Qinan?"
Xiaoshi was shocked: "How do you know?"
Jin Xin snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "This old thing!" He stared at Xiao Shi, and said seriously: ??The person my brother is going to meet tonight is very important. This meeting is kept confidential and the level is very high. Inside Yijiang, except for me, only Zhong Kai knows. Later, Hou Qinan also heard some news by mistake. It is said that one of the other party is from the same town as him, and the two have many contacts. However, the eldest brother didn't pay much attention to it, because he didn't intend to keep it a secret. Who knew that he had such a skill! "
Xiaoshi's hands and feet were cold. Hearing what Jin Xin said, she remembered that when she went to Yijiang in the morning, she met Zhong Kai first. Zhong Kai also deliberately looked through Zhou Shaoting's schedule, and when he mentioned the evening's activities, he just said briefly: "In the evening, Mr. Zhou also has a meeting arrangement."
But Hou Qinan told her the specific location clearly, and pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's all a matter of dealing with the occasion, and it should end soon." Then he kindly suggested that she go there to find Zhou Shaoting, and put the reason Be clear and logical.
The more Xiao Shi thought about it, the more flustered she became. She looked at Jin Xin in a daze, and asked dully, "Butwhy?"
Jin Xin said bitterly: "Didn't you just watch those entertainment journals suddenly swarming up? They must have squatted down a long time ago! This whole is a play that Hou Qinan arranged for the design of the elder brother! Just to make some lace When the news comes out, it will degrade his reputation and further affect the direction of the board of directors and the reputation of Yijiang, so that, firstly, it can add some weight to the Cheng Group, and secondly, his own self-interest will be just around the corner!"
Xiao Shi was startled when he heard it, his eyes were messy, and he murmured: "Why did this happen I didn't do it on purpose, I just want to see him and have something to say to him. I went to Yijiang to find him, but he was not there, and then Met Hou Qinan, said he was here at nighthow could"
She spoke incoherently, Jin Xin's brows were sharp, and she snorted, "It's too hateful! This old guy is really deliberate! Brother must have known it in his heart, and he won't spare them!"
Hearing him say "big brother", Zhou Shaoting's stern and stern face appeared in front of Xiaoshi's eyes again, his heart tightened, his hands subconsciously grabbed Jin Xin's sleeves, and shook them helplessly, "Shaoting, he Angry, aren't you? I've got him in so much trouble againwhy I'm doing the wrong thing!"
Jin Xin looked at her wet eyes, full of fear and regret, and lowered his eyes to see her hand holding her, which was weak and pale, trembling slightly.
He looked a little worried, and stretched out his other hand involuntarily, wanting to pat the back of Xiaoshi's hand as a comfort, but felt it was inappropriate, and then wanted to pat her on the shoulder instead, after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.
Jin Xin put his hands back calmly, calmed down, and comforted: "Don't think too much, it's not your fault. The elder brother just wanted to protect you. He asked me to take a taxi to take you off because he was afraid that you would take him. If his car is photographed, it will be even more convincing. As you know, Yijiang's situation is very special now. I think he has tried his best to be thorough, but he is still taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives. It is really hard to guard against!"
Jin Xin turned his head, thinking, feeling a little puzzled in his resentment, "I didn't let them find an opportunity to take advantage of it before, how come they are so pervasive now? Even you have taken advantage of it! It seems that they are really capable"
Xiaoshi's hand seemed to be shocked, and it bounced off Jin Xin's forearm.
Jin Xin's words woke her up, it was she who gave Hou Qinan and those people a loophole they could take advantage of!
How could it not be her fault? It's all her fault! It was because she wanted to see Zhou Shaoting so much that she was blinded and dizzy.
She is Zhou Shaoting's secret, a weakness he cannot control.
Weaknesses
Xiao Shi suddenly remembered what Sun Xiaonan had said to her: "A person without weaknesses is terrifying. I used to think that Zhou Shaoting was such a person, but now he is not. Although I am mad with jealousy, I have to admit that, You are his weakness. Even if I don't take advantage of it, if Cheng Yongcheng finds out, I will definitely not let this breakthrough go."
Xiaoshi's five fingers were deeply embedded in the mohair scarf, and he clenched tighter and tighter.
The next day, Yijiang's president had an extramarital affair, and the gossip about a tryst with his lover in a luxury hotel on Christmas Eve came out, which caught Yijiang's public relations department by surprise.
All of a sudden, related revelations and speculations can be seen in the gossip corners of entertainment magazines and financial magazines. On the Internet, it was even more overwhelming. The large high-definition photos of Zhou Shaoting holding a girl with a scarf covering her head occupied the headlines of some websites. It's just that although I can see the anger in the CEO's eyes clearly, I can't see the mysterious woman's face, what a pity!
As a result, various speculations arose one after another. Some people said it was a certain actress, but this statement was quickly rejected because the girl's clothes were too ordinary. From down jackets, jeans to bags and shoes, none of them were famous brands. There are also very research-minded netizens who searched for the brands and styles of these clothes, trousers and bags one by one, and found that they are all popular brands in shopping malls, which are unremarkable. But the ginger-yellow mohair scarf, which is the key prop, is honored to be a popular item of a certain treasure.
Since they are not celebrities, petite, and dressed in youthful and casual clothes, some netizens who fear the world will not be chaotic began to rely on the identity of female college students or even underage middle school students. The rumors became more and more exaggerated, and President Zhou's hobbies became more and more weird.
