Chapter 345: Something Happened to the Website

Yuan Shu remained silent in the cabin as she listened to his conversation with Song Shi. She slowly turned her body and sized up the small fishing boat. Other than a simple cabin with two floors, there was almost nothing else on the fishing boat. Moreover, it seemed that it had been idle for a long time.
After she glanced at the land buildings that could be seen on the sea, she roughly knew where she was. It had to be said that Wang Ping was very smart. No one would suspect him even if she floated on the sea for a few days from the fishermen’s port.
The fishing village here was relatively backward and they were all local villagers, so there was no surveillance equipment. Even if someone wanted to look for her, they probably wouldn’t be able to find her. However, who would look for her?
Yuan Shu sighed. Perhaps in the past, her family would have found out that she was missing, but who else would now? She and Shi Xiao were divorced, and Jiang Chen was already engaged. Even more than half of the company’s work had been handed over to Lin Xi. Who would remember her?
At this moment, Shi Xiao was throwing a tantrum in Yuan Shu’s office. “What time is it? How dare she be late!”
He didn’t leave the company the entire night and slept in the office break room, since he wanted to wait for Yuan Shu to finish her work and eat with her, but when he went downstairs, he found out that Yuan Shu had already left the company. She didn’t have the habit of bringing her phone with her, so he called her, but realized that her phone was still on her desk.
The next morning, he was waiting for her at the door of her office. He prepared the excuse that the housekeeper had brought her breakfast, but in fact, he just wanted to see her. He didn’t expect Yuan Shu to dare to be late. Shi Xiao was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Just as he took out his phone, he realized that her phone was still on the desk.
Cheng Cheng stood at the side timidly as she explained softly, “President Shi, Miss Yuan is never late. Moreover, she always works overtime when she’s busy with work. Perhaps she went back too late yesterday, or perhaps she’s been in a bad mood these few days and isn’t feeling well?”
“She’s been in a bad mood?” Shi Xiao asked coldly.
Cheng Cheng was still smiling, but when she saw Shi Xiao’s cold gaze, her smile froze on her face. Shi Xiao continued to ask, “Has she been in a bad mood? Why has she been in a bad mood? Speak!”
Originally, she didn’t want to comment on her boss’s personal life in front of others, but when she thought of Lin Xi’s cocky behavior yesterday, Cheng Cheng braced herself and said, “You guys just got a divorce. No matter who it is, they won’t be in a good mood. Moreover, you even asked Miss Lin to be in charge of the handover. Isn’t it obvious that you want to chase her away? Perhaps Miss Yuan refused to come to work in a fit of anger!”
Although she knew that Yuan Shu had the intention of leaving the Shi Corporation, Yuan Shu didn’t say when she would leave, so she felt that she might as well reveal some information to President Shi first. Perhaps if he asked her to stay, Yuan Shu wouldn’t leave.
Upon hearing her words, Shi Xiao actually smiled, startling Cheng Cheng so much that she hurriedly lowered her head. She really didn’t know what he meant by smiling. Could it be that he wanted to take her life?
“So she’s in a bad mood,” Shi Xiao said in a good mood. “This is breakfast made by our housekeeper. After she finishes eating, ask her to come to my office for a while.”
He tapped the phone on the table again as he said, “Tell her to keep her phone close to her. When there’s important work, people can’t even find her.”
Cheng Cheng felt as if she had been electrocuted. She nodded mechanically as she picked up Yuan Shu’s phone.
Shi Xiao returned to the office in a good mood. Along the way, his colleagues looked at him in horror, as if they had seen a ghost. Their usually poker-faced boss smiled, and he was even smiling smugly? Everyone felt their scalps tingle.
Unfortunately, his good mood didn’t last long. Yuan Shu didn’t come to his office even until noon.
He called Yuan Shu’s office impatiently, but Cheng Cheng picked up. “President Shi, Miss Yuan hasn’t come to work yet. She didn’t bring her phone, so I don’t know how to contact her.”
Shi Xiao hung up the phone fiercely. Could it be that this woman was really so agitated yesterday that she refused to come to work today? But she clearly didn’t have any expression on her face yesterday. Shi Xiao paced around the office in frustration. For some reason, he had a bad feeling.
Just as he was feeling frustrated, Lin Xi knocked on the door and pushed it open. Shi Xiao said with displeasure, “How many times have I told you that you have to get my permission to enter the office before coming in!”
Lin Xi was clearly shocked by his attitude and her eyes immediately turned red as she said in an aggrieved voice, “I’m sorry, but something happened to the website. Something serious happened to the technical department..”
