Chapter 838: Endgame (2)
In the banquet hall, many guests still gathered together to chat and joke. However, at the same time, what Huo Jinxi said to the reporter also spread throughout every corner of the venue in the shortest time.
For a moment, everyone was shocked.
"The Nanhai Development Project is a government project, so why can it stop at any time?"
"Yes, there are many people behind Huo. How could such a big deal be caused by such a problem?"
"Is it related to Han Bo? He really came for Huo this time, and the South China Sea project was his warning to Huo?"
"But Lu's investment in the South China Sea project has also invested so much money. Ye Jinfan has no reason to cooperate with Han Bo and do it himself?"
In the same place, Mu Qian and Ye Xi also heard these comments.
However, unlike Mu Qian's calm face, Ye Xi was the one with a pale face.
"Qianqian."
Mu Qian was standing behind a group of people and listening attentively to their discussions, when he suddenly heard Huo Jinxi calling him and responded quickly.
Only then did the few people realize that Mu Qian was standing next to him, and Huo Jinxi came over at some point. The few people instantly fell silent and stopped discussing.
And Huo Jinxi just stretched out his hand to Mu Qian, "We should go back."
"Okay." Mu Qian responded, took two steps towards him, but suddenly stopped.
Turning back, Ye Xi stood not far from her, looking at her in panic.
Mu Qian looked at her for a moment, and finally stepped forward slowly and whispered: "Since you are going abroad, then leave earlier, the sooner the better."
After hearing this, Ye Xi's face turned pale in an instant.
Mu Qian glanced at her again, and did not stop anymore. She turned around and walked towards Huo Jinxi, took his hand, and walked slowly out the door.
At the door, the reporters were still waiting there. When they saw Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian coming out, they surrounded him again, trying to get more news from Huo Jinxi.
However, the bodyguard was on the side, Huo Jinxi did not look at the reporters anymore, and dragged Mu Qian's hand to leave here calmly.
Ye Xi stood in the venue for a moment of panic and helplessness. Suddenly, someone next to Ye Jinfan came to her and whispered: "Miss Ye, Mr. Ye is waiting for you in the lounge upstairs."
After hearing this, Ye Xi hurriedly followed him away from the side door and went upstairs.
When I opened the door of the lounge, I saw Ye Jinfan sitting on the sofa, with a cold and dark face.
Hearing the sound, he suddenly raised his eyes and saw that it was Ye Xi. His face calmed down a little and he stretched out his hand to her.
Ye Xi walked up to him a little stiffly and was pulled by him to sit down.
"Brother..." She was still in a state of ignorance, vaguely understanding what big thing happened, but she didn't know what the big thing was. "What happened?"
Ye Jinfan shook her hand, then paused and said, "It's okay, you can rest for a while--"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly pushed the door and looked at him and said, "Mr. Ye, I found it."
Ye Jinfan suddenly looked up at him and heard him say, "According to the reporter, this news was obtained temporarily and only came out more than 20 minutes ago. In other words, it was when Mr. Ye, you introduced Mr. Han on stage..."
Ye Jinfan suddenly clenched his fists.
"In addition, the specific reasons for the project are still being verified, but because the dominance of the project has always been in the hands of Huo, it may not be able to be found so quickly."
Ye Jinfan slowly leaned into the sofa, waved the man away, and lit a cigarette for himself.
"Brother..." Ye Xi quickly reached out and grabbed him, "What's going on with this matter? What impact will it have on you?"
Ye Jinfan did not answer her. After taking a few more puffs of cigarettes, he suddenly pinched off the cigarette butt and pulled Ye Xi to stand up, "Let's go, I'll take you back first."
"Brother!" Ye Xi was pinched and hurt, "Just tell me, don't let me guess randomly, okay?"
Ye Jinfan turned around, reached out to hold her face, and said slowly: "It's okay, nothing will happen. Everything will still be done with our plan. Just don't worry."
After saying that, he pulled Ye Xi out of the lounge quickly.
Ye Xi was panicked, but she couldn't even ask a word. Seeing Ye Jinfan's attitude, she recalled what Mu Qian said to her before leaving. She realized something. Standing in the elevator, she finally asked Ye Jinfan: "Brother, is there any danger?"
She turned to look at Ye Jinfan. The wound on his face had not healed, and there were still some bruises in the corners of his eyes, but it was not obvious that he deliberately covered it today.
Last time, because of his business decision-making mistakes, he not only caused losses to Lu, but also caused himself to be in a lawsuit. He had already learned such a lesson. This time...
She just heard that the South China Sea development project was jointly cooperated by Huo and Lu, and now this project has also been blocked, which means that Lu has suffered losses again. For him-
Ye Xi couldn't help but reach out and grabbed Ye Jinfan tightly and said, "Brother--"
Before she could speak, the elevator had already arrived at the underground parking lot. Ye Jinfan grabbed her out of the elevator and got directly into the car that was already waiting next to the elevator. Then he ordered the driver to drive.
"Is there any danger?" Ye Xi asked him repeatedly, "Will someone make you embarrassed like last time?"
"Shh." Ye Jinfan grabbed her hand and stood it on his lips, "Don't think too much for now, let me think quietly."
After hearing this, Ye Xi didn't dare to pester him and ask anything again. He just watched Ye Jinfan slowly close his eyes, leaning against the car window and frown in thought.
She was full of anxiety and could only hold on to the hem of her skirt, turn her head and look out the window, trying to calm herself down.
At night, the traffic in the city center is still not very good. The cars are stuck in traffic, and the stops and stops are even more annoying.
The more Ye Xi wanted to calm down, the less he could calm down. Just as she was looking at the stagnant traffic ahead with some anxiety, she suddenly heard Ye Jinfan say, "Don't go back to the villa, go to the apartment in the north of the city."
"elder brother?"
Ye Xi looked at him in surprise, but Ye Jinfan still just pinched her hand, patted the back of her hand, and said, "It's okay, just in case, you don't have to think too much."
After saying that, he looked out the window again, his brows still tightly.
The car quickly turned around and drove towards the north of the city. Until he arrived at the apartment, Ye Jinfan always held Ye Xi's hand tightly in his hand.
The more he did this, the more nervous Ye Xi became.
The two finally got to the apartment, and Ye Jinfan let go of her and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.
While he was taking a shower, Ye Xi finally couldn't help but open the door and saw the bodyguard guarding outside.
"You have always been by my brother's side. You must know how much investment has been made in the South China Sea project and how important it is?"
After hearing this, the two bodyguards looked at each other, their eyes a little solemn.
