Ten minutes later, Huo's internal meeting was held as scheduled, but in a different conference room.
In the previous conference room, only Ye Jinfan was sitting there alone, quietly closing his eyes and meditating.
The meeting in another conference room lasted for more than two hours and finally ended.
At the same time, the press conference prepared by Huo's Public Relations Department has been arranged, and many reporters gathered in the lobby of Huo's, eagerly awaiting the news that Huo's is about to announce.
Subsequently, Huo Jinxi led Huo's board of directors and attended the press conference in person to announce the relevant situation of the South China Sea project.
At the same time, Huo Jinxi also announced two other key projects for Huo in the new year to offset the impact of the suspension of the South China Sea project on Huo.
For reporters, this is one big news after another, and various media outlets are scrambling to conduct live broadcasts online, trying to seize the news as soon as possible.
It is precisely because of this that the news announced by Huo spread to every corner of the world as soon as possible.
Ye Xi, who was far away in Xiangcheng, also saw the report of Xianguan at the first time.
The moment she saw the report, she subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Such news may not be true——
But then, the same news came overwhelmingly, blasting through all channels and becoming the hottest news at the moment.
Looking at the notifications on her phone one after another, Ye Xi could hardly control her trembling hands.
Previously, Ye Jinfan was sure that Huo Jinxi's news about the South China Sea project was just a false shot to force him to give up everything and jump into a trap. Therefore, he refused to leave Tongcheng and insisted on fighting Huo Jinxi to the end.
But now, the news that this project has been suspended is true...
So what will Huo Jinxi do to him? What will the Lu family's people do to him? The most important thing is... what will President Jin's people do to him?
She turned off the densely packed relevant information and dialed Ye Jinfan's number with trembling hands.
But when I called, the phone was turned off.
Ye Xi's eyes turned red for a moment, and after shouting in pain, she stood up suddenly and tried to leave the room.
The bodyguard at the door stopped her, "Ms. Ye, you can't leave here."
"Let me go back!" Ye Xi said, "Something happened to him! Something must have happened to him!"
"Mr. Ye is fine!" One of the bodyguards put down his cell phone, walked over quickly, and said to her, "Mr. Ye is still in Huo's conference room. He is safe -"
Ye Xi was suddenly in a trance, and the next moment she couldn't help but shuddered, "He is in Huo's conference room, so he is safe now, but what happens after he leaves Huo's conference room? He walked out
What happens after Huo's death? Will he be fine? "
The two bodyguards looked at each other, neither knowing how to answer.
In fact, the reason why they knew Ye Jinfan's situation was because they were in constant contact with Ye Jinfan's bodyguards.
As people hired by Ye Jinfan, they are also concerned about their employer's situation, because once something happens to Ye Jinfan, their work will instantly become embarrassing.
Because of this, they clearly knew what Ye Xi was worried about——
Mr. Jin and others arranged for the people around Ye Jinfan to be waiting for Ye Jinfan downstairs. Once Ye Jinfan shows up, it's hard to say what will happen.
"Let me go back, you guys let me go back." Ye Xi said, "I don't need your protection anymore. If something happens to him, I can't hire you anymore. You can go on your own and leave me alone!"
"Sorry, Miss Ye, we can't ignore you right now." The bodyguard said, "Even if you go back, you won't be able to help Mr. Ye, it will only add to his burden -"
With one sentence, Ye Xi was stunned for an instant.
With all kinds of thoughts going over and over in her mind, she took two steps back stiffly. After a moment, she suddenly returned to the sofa, picked up her cell phone, and made another call.
Unlike Ye Jinfan's phone call that never got through, this call was picked up quickly.
Ye Xi's tears instantly welled up in her eyes, and she shouted softly: "Qianqian..."
Hearing her voice, Mu Qian was quiet for a moment and then responded lightly: "Yes."
"Qianqian, I beg you, can you help me?" Ye Xi said hoarsely, "I beg you, only you can help me..."
She couldn't say anything else, she couldn't give a reason to ask Mu Qian to help, because she no longer had any position to ask Mu Qian to help her. But she had no choice, no matter how shameless and unreasonable the request was, she could only
This is the way.
In Tongcheng, Mu Qian was sitting in the lobby of the Huo family's mansion. The tablet in front of her was also filled with news from Huo's press conference. Therefore, she knew the reason why Ye Xi made this call.
"How do you want me to help you?" Mu Qian asked.
"Please..." Ye Xi choked and said, "Help me save my brother's life, please..."
"Where are you?" Mu Qian asked.
"I'm in Xiangcheng." Ye Xi said, "He forcibly sent me here and wouldn't let me go back... Qianqian, I can only beg you..."
After hearing this, Mu Qian slowly closed her eyes, and then said, "It's actually easy for Ye Jinfan to save his life, because Huo Jinxi gave him a chance to live."
"What is it?" Ye Xi asked quickly, knowing nothing about the situation over there.
"As long as Ye Jinfan is willing to surrender and take the initiative to explain all the crimes he has committed," Mu Qian said, "In this way, the South China Sea project will be restarted, and the financial backers behind Ye Jinfan will no longer want Ye Jinfan's life."
Ye Xi was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and felt that her liver and gallbladder were broken.
Ask Ye Jinfan to surrender... surrender...
"Qianqian..." Ye Xi called her name again, "Can you help me beg Huo Jinxi..."
"I won't beg him for you." Mu Qian answered bluntly, "You may not know exactly how many things Ye Jinfan did to the Huo family, but you should be able to guess how much Huo Jinxi has endured.
Only he knows it. I can't stand on your and Ye Jinfan's side, to persuade him to be generous, to persuade him to ignore past grudges and help you save Ye Jinfan's life - do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand..." Ye Xi sobbed uncontrollably, "But..."
"There is no but," Mu Qian said, "It's not that Huo Jinxi didn't give Ye Jinfan a way to survive. Whether he chooses to or not is his own business and has nothing to do with anyone else."
After Mu Qian finished speaking, she didn't wait for Ye Xi's answer. She just said "Take care of yourself" and hung up the phone.
Ye Xi listened to the sound of the phone being disconnected. After being stunned for a few seconds, she suddenly opened the door again and looked at the bodyguard outside the door. "You are in contact with my brother's bodyguard, right? Can you help me call there?"
, I have something to say to him——"
The two bodyguards seemed to hesitate for a moment, but one of them finally picked up the phone and made a call.
"Are you still with Mr. Ye?" the bodyguard said, "Miss Ye wants to talk to Mr. Ye. Please take the phone and give it to Mr. Ye."
After the response was given, the bodyguard quickly handed the phone to Ye Xi.
Ye Xi quickly picked up the phone and put it to her ear. She just heard a somewhat distant "Mr. Ye" coming from the other end. Then, the receiver was suddenly filled with the harsh ringtone of the fire alarm——
Even though she knew that the phone hadn't reached Ye Jinfan yet, Ye Xi still couldn't help shouting twice: "Brother? Brother——"
There was a lot of noise and confusion on the other end of the phone, and soon the call was hung up.
