Chapter 68:

    The premiere of "In Troubled Times" was a great success. Chen Zhiwei swept away the bad luck and became proud. Fang Luowei won the popularity of everyone with his amazing appearance. Among the main creators, the media pays the most attention to Shen Xi.

    As an ignorant and ignorant boy in the eyes of the public, no one was optimistic about Shen Xi before investing in "Troubled Times", and the media mentioned that Shen Xi also regarded him as money to burn more Hands take advantage of. However, the success of the premiere made all the media uniformly change their tone, and Shen Xi became a Bole with a discerning eye. Shen Xi didn't care about the media's praise. After rejecting all media interviews, Shen Xi and Li Mingxuan left the premiere in a low-key manner.

     On the way home, neither of them spoke. In the quiet carriage, the soft violin chanted softly, and a touch of warmth flowed around the two of them.

    While waiting for the red light, Li Mingxuan couldn't help but lean over and kiss Shen Xi quickly. Shen Xi was in a very good mood tonight, with a smile in the corners of her eyes, she took the initiative to embrace Li Mingxuan who was about to retreat, deepening the kiss. A whistle sounded from the car next to him, Shen Xi smiled slightly, and ended the kiss when the green light came on.

    Li Mingxuan straightened his posture and looked forward, but there was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.

    Back to the community, the two people in the elevator reached out and held each other tacitly at the same time. He almost couldn't wait to open the door. No one turned on the lights. With the white moonlight outside the window, Li Mingxuan pushed Shen Xi to the door and kissed him hard.

    Shen Xi raised her head to bear Li Mingxuan's kiss, wrapped her hands around Li Mingxuan's neck, and pressed her body tightly.

    In the moonlight like water, the two bodies were intimately entangled and never separated for a long time.

    After the long affair, Shen Xi was carried into the bathroom by Li Mingxuan. After some careful cleaning, Shen Xi lay on the bed wrapped in a quilt, Li Mingxuan sat on the edge of the bed and leaned over to kiss him, "Good, you go to bed first, I'll answer a few emails."

    Shen Xi nodded, but found that she couldn't fall asleep, and subconsciously stared at Li Mingxuan who was beside her.

    Under the light orange light, Li Mingxuan looked at the computer intently. From Shen Xi's point of view, Li Mingxuan's profile is extremely handsome, and because of the concentration on his face, it is indescribably attractive. Shen Xi looked at Li Mingxuan quietly, with a tenderness in his eyes that even he himself had never noticed.

    When I woke up the next day, Li Mingxuan had gone to the company. Shen Xi simply washed up and turned on the computer. Unexpectedly, she saw two completely different headlines on the entertainment page of each portal website.

    "The three young masters of the Shen family are making a strong comeback with "Storm in Troubled Times".

    "The eldest and second young masters of the Shen family have had another scandal over property disputes, and the whereabouts of Shen's huge sums of money has become a mystery!"

    Two reports with completely different content, but inextricably linked, side by side, revealing indescribable irony. For the first time, Shen Xi, who has always shown a negative image, appeared in front of readers with a positive image, while Shen Ji and Shen Cheng, who have always been in a good image, were involved in a scandal where the flow of funds was unknown. Shen Xi skipped the report about herself, and her eyes stayed on another report. Shen Ji wanted to cover up this matter, but he was about to burst it out, still in this way.

    In the office, Shen Ji stared at the newspaper in front of him silently, the atmosphere was indescribably depressed. The assistant glanced at Shen Ji carefully, guessing his mood at this time.

    "The reporter still won't reveal the source of the news?"

    Shen Ji's sudden speech made the assistant stunned for a while, and then quickly responded, "I have contacted several reports, and they can't tell the source, but the strange thing is that they all Pretty sure the news is true."

    Shen Ji lowered his eyes, deliberately ignored the report on Shen Xi, and focused on Shen's report. The whistleblower obviously knew the inside story, and not only explained the ins and outs of the incident clearly, but also did not miss the details. Shen Ji's brows furrowed tightly. The other party did not choose to be exclusive but released news to all the reporters, obviously wanting to make this matter bigger. I don't know if this whistleblower is the same person as the man behind it? What good is this going on for him?

    As Shen Ji pondered, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Shen Cheng walked in with a look of panic.

    "Brother, what should I do? I don't want to go to jail?"

    The assistant was startled by what Shen Cheng said, and immediately exited the office with interest, and closed the office door tightly for them.

    "Jail?" Shen Ji said with a sullen face, "Who said you were going to jail?"

    Shen Cheng grabbed Shen Ji hard, "People in the company say that embezzlement of company funds is an economic crime, if I can't find the person who actually embezzled, am I going to go to jail? ?"

    Shen Ji shouted, "You haven't done anything with a guilty conscience!"

    Shen Cheng nodded indiscriminately, but did not dare to look at Shen Ji, "But those funds with unknown whereabouts are all signed by me, what should I do, eldest brother?"

    Shen Ji patted Shen Cheng soothingly, "Don't worry, eldest brother won't let you have any trouble."

    Shen Ji's appeasement reassured Shen Cheng a lot, and his worries about going to jail in the morning dissipated a lot.

    Shen Ji's eyes flashed a trace of worry, although he comforted Shen Cheng like this, he knew that things were not simple. The finance has been checked twice in a row, and the flow of funds is all directed to Ah Cheng. At present, the board of directors has not intervened. Once the board of directors intervenes and hand over the matter to the police, it is not within his control whether Acheng can clear the suspicion.

    Shen Ji was about to tell Shen Cheng to go back to his office first, when the assistant suddenly pushed the door and broke in.

    Shen Ji looked over suspiciously and realized that the assistant's expression was wrong, "What's wrong?"

    The assistant glanced at Shen Ji quickly, his eyes implying that this matter needs to be discussed separately. Shen Ji was slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at Shen Cheng.

    Shen Cheng realized something and said dissatisfiedly, "Is there anything you and eldest brother can't tell in front of me?"

    The assistant looked embarrassed, but still hesitantly refused to speak, Shen Cheng was very dissatisfied, frowned or got up and chose to leave.

    As soon as Shen Cheng left, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Director Liao of Finance has found the person who handled it."

    "Who is it?" Shen Ji suddenly had a bad premonition.

    The assistant looked solemn, "Chang Lei."

    Shen Ji's face was ugly, "Where is he now?"

    The assistant said, "Director Liao made an excuse to keep him in the conference room, and now there are two security guards."

    Shen Ji coldly said, "Who else knows about this?"

    The assistant was just about to say that there were only a few of us who knew, when the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Shen Cheng burst in with a look of anger, "Big brother?"

    Shen Cheng's eyes were full of doubts and disbelief, Shen Ji's heart sank, since the assistant mentioned Chang Lei's name, he had already guessed that this matter would definitely be linked to himself , he had already prepared in his heart, but Shen Cheng's subconscious reaction still made him feel extremely sad.

    Lu Gesen stood behind Shen Cheng with a serious face, and said in a low voice, "Young Master Cheng, this matter cannot be determined to be related to President Shen."

    Shen Cheng's face flashed a hint of hesitation, and he didn't want to believe that the big brother did everything behind the scenes, but Chang Lei was the big brother's person and everyone in the company knew. Shen Ji's comfort to him just now flashed through his mind, Shen Cheng looked at Shen Ji hesitantly for a long time, turned around and left without saying a word. Lu Gesen apologetically nodded with Shen Ji and left with Shen Cheng.

    The assistant looked at Shen Ji worriedly, even if Shen Cheng finally left, he could not deny that Shen Cheng doubted Shen Ji for the first time. Thinking of Shen Ji's trust in Shen Cheng after the incident of Shen Cheng's misappropriation of funds, the assistant couldn't help but show sympathy in Shen Ji's eyes.

    Chang Lei admitted that this matter was handled by him behind his back, and insisted that he was under Shen Ji's instruction, the purpose was to make Shen Cheng resign as general manager. Finance checked Chang Lei's account, and soon found that a large amount of unknown money suddenly appeared in his account recently. Everyone even found the emails between him and Shen Ji in Chang Lei's mailbox, and all the evidence clearly pointed to Shen Ji.

    The news reached the hospital, and Father Shen failed to come up in a breath of anger and fainted again.

    When Father Shen woke up again, he found Wang Changlin by his side.

    "Changlin? Why are you?" Father Shen supported Wang Changlin and sat up with difficulty.

    Wang Changlin said while helping Father Shen adjust his comfortable posture, "The company's affairs are in a mess, and neither A Ji nor A Cheng can get away."

    Wang Changlin's words made Father Shen think of the news he had received before, and his face suddenly became ugly, "What do you say about Chang Lei in the end?"

    Wang Changlin smiled wryly, "The board of directors insisted on handing over Chang Lei to the police, but I stopped him. We'll talk about everything when you wake up."

    Father Shen sullenly said, "Changlin, do you believe in Ah Ji?"

    Wang Changlin's heart moved, and he nodded, "I believe, but the problem now is that Chang Lei insisted on A Ji. There are all witnesses and materials, and it is difficult for A Ji to clear his suspicions."

    Father Shen frowned tightly. He also believed in his son, but as Wang Changlin said, Chang Lei insisted that it was A Ji's order, and the evidence was there, and it was difficult for A Ji to clear his suspicions. If he handed Chang Lei over to the police, A Ji would definitely be implicated. He didn't believe that Chang Lei dared to climb on A Ji alone. This incident was full of weirdness from beginning to end. He believed that Chang Lei was just a chess piece and that there was someone else behind Chang Lei. Regardless of whether this matter can be found out in the end, there are already stains on A Ji's body. But if he didn't pay Chang Lei, Ah Cheng could not get rid of the suspicion of embezzlement. One side is Aji and the other is Acheng. Now that this matter has come, he must make a decision as soon as possible, whether to choose to protect Aji or Acheng?

    Wang Changlin looked at Father Shen calmly, a sneer flashed in his eyes very quickly, no matter what decision Father Shen made today, the rift between the three of them will no longer be able to make up.

    The news that Father Shen woke up was quickly notified by Wang Changlin, and everyone rushed over after receiving the news.

    Father Shen sat in a wheelchair and received several other directors of the company. Shen Ji sat behind Shen's father expressionlessly, Shen Cheng hesitated for a while, and sat beside Shen Ji. Shen Cheng's attitude fell in the eyes of everyone, and everyone moved in their hearts.

    Gao Qiulin was the first to say, "Dehan, you must know what we mean here. I suggest handing over this matter to the police, whether it's A Ji or A Cheng, always give them a clean."

    Father Shen did not speak with a sullen face, Gao Qiulin smiled and looked at Shen Cheng, "A Cheng, you are a victim, what do you think?"

    Shen Cheng nodded without hesitation.

    Gao Qiulin smiled with satisfaction and turned to Shen Ji, "What does Ah Ji mean?"

    Shen Ji did not look at Gao Qiulin, and said coldly, "I have no opinion."

    Gao Qiulin was very surprised by Shen Ji's simpleness, smiled and looked at Father Shen, "Dehan, it's up to your opinion now."

    Father Shen gave Gao Qiulin a gloomy look, and said coldly, "I don't agree."

    "Why?" Shen Cheng jumped up first, "Father, now everyone believes that I embezzled the company's money, so I won't hand it over to the police to check it out, do I want to Have you been carrying this charge all the time?"

    Father Shen frowned, Shen Cheng glanced at Shen Ji, and then said, "Father, I know you want to protect eldest brother. But as long as eldest brother hasn't done it, he doesn't have to feel guilty about this matter. Isn't it good to check it out?"

    Father Shen said with a cold face, "Things are not as simple as you think." Father Shen glanced at the few people in front of him vaguely. He always suspected that the mastermind behind this incident was in a few of the company. Among the directors, of course, Gao Qiulin is the most suspicious. He was worried that if he couldn't find out about this matter, it would completely destroy Ah Ji.

    Shen's father's attitude was very tough, Shen Cheng only felt extremely disappointed, "Father, you are worried about your eldest brother's reputation, so you want to sacrifice me?"

    "A Cheng!" Father Shen shouted angrily.

    Shen Cheng stared directly at Father Shen, "Isn't it? Father, you are worried that this matter will be implicated in the investigation, what about me? Am I going to be accused of embezzling the company's money all the time? ? Big brother is your son, what am I?"

    Father Shen's face became more and more ugly, Shen Ji reached out and grabbed him, "A Cheng!"

    Shen Cheng shook off Shen Ji, "Don't worry about it!"

    Shen Ji lowered his eyes and turned to Father Shen, "Father, let the police handle this matter."

    Father Shen categorically denied, "No!"

    Gao Qiulin winked at the director next to him, the director smiled and said, "Since Dehan's attitude is so firm, it's not that this matter can't be dealt with in private, Dehan will always give us a Let me explain. While everyone is here, Dehan, tell me how you plan to deal with this matter, right? It is certain that Chang Lei misappropriated the company's funds, and the flow of funds is certain for Ah Cheng. In conclusion, these two things are Sure, why do you need an explanation? Is it possible that Chang Lei has a mental problem, and he doesn't use the money he has moved out, but gives it to Ah Cheng?"

    Everyone understood what the director said. Regardless of whether Chang Lei was instructed by Shen Ji or not, the fact that he misappropriated funds is here, and the flow of funds is also a fact here with Shen Cheng. Father Shen now either admits that Shen Ji is behind all this and that Shen Cheng is wronged, or pushes Shen Cheng out. Since Father Shen doesn't want to involve Shen Ji, this matter can only be left behind by Shen Cheng.

    Father Shen looked at the director coldly, and the director nodded at Father Shen with the same expression.

    For Shen's father, Shen Cheng and Shen Ji are both Fang Yun's sons, and they are equally important in his heart, but if the importance must be distinguished, then Shen Ji was trained by him. Heir, Shen shi will be handed over to Shen Ji in the future, and he must not have any stains on him.

    The atmosphere in the ward became tense, Shen Cheng sat there without any hope, he had already thought about what decision Shen's father would make.

    Father Shen was about to speak with a gloomy face, when Shen Ji suddenly stood up, "I did this."

    Everyone in the ward looked over in surprise at the same time, Shen Ji said expressionlessly, "I will be responsible for repaying Chang Lei's misappropriation of the company's money, as for other punishments, everything is in accordance with the company's regulations. "

    "A Ji!" Father Shen said angrily, "Are you crazy?"

    Shen Ji didn't answer Shen's father's words, but just said in a flat tone, "Father, let's just leave this matter. I'll go back first."

    Father Shen watched Shen Ji get up and leave, trembling uncontrollably.

    Gao Qiulin snorted haha, "Since Ah Ji has admitted it, we will handle this matter privately, and we don't need to involve the police, why should we save face for Dehan."

    Father Shen stared at Gao Qiulin, feeling that he couldn't say a word.

    This matter will soon be resolved, the board of directors has decided to expel Shen Ji, and Shen Ji will not be allowed to participate in the management of Shen in any form in the future. As for the funds that Chang Lei misappropriated, Shen Ji will be responsible for filling the hole within three days.

    Shen Xi soon received news from old K, everything was as he imagined. Gently deleted the text messages in the phone, and the corners of Shen Xi's mouth turned up happily.

    The resolution of the board of directors actually deprived Shen Ji of his inheritance rights in disguise. Even if he holds Shen's shares in the future, he can only be an "idler who only takes money and cannot participate in any decision-making."

    This is the life that Shen Ji once set for Shen Xi. I wonder how he feels now that he has chosen this path by himself?
