Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly. “That depends on how long it takes you to prove yourself.”

With that, she turned around and left without waiting for Yi Zheng’s reaction.

She didn’t like the smell in this room.

Yi Zheng hurriedly followed without thinking. Tang Zhe had been observing carefully from next door. When he saw Yi Zheng come out, he hurriedly came up and lowered his voice. “President Yi, how should we deal with Assistant Chen?”

He told Yi Zheng everything he had seen after entering the room.

When Yi Zheng heard this, he only rubbed his eyebrows in frustration. “Let her go back first. Investigate this matter carefully. 1 suspect that the Sui family did this.”

“Yes.”

After Tang Zhe received the order, he immediately retreated, not daring to delay the President’s pursuit of his wife.

Tonight, Yi Zheng originally planned to go home after dealing with the company, but he was stopped by an invitation before he left.

The banquet was held by the most famous family in the capital, the Fu family.

Yi Zheng was developing his business in the capital on his own, so he had to go to the Fu family’s invitation.

He was the youngest President at the banquet. There were many people who came and went to flatter and find fault with him. Yi Zheng had been in this circle for many years, so he naturally knew how to deal with them.

There were jealous or envious gazes from these people, but only the Sui Family had animosity towards him that could not be ignored.

At night, the head of the Sui family, Sui Ze, took the initiative to clink glasses with him. It was difficult for him not to suspect the other party.

Elsewhere.

After Yi Zheng left, Tang Zhe brought Chen Jiao back to the car. He lit a cigarette and placed one hand on the window without saying anything.

In the front passenger seat, Chen Jiao carefully stole a glance at him and said hesitantly, “Cousin, about tonight, I…”

Tang Zhe interrupted her irritably. “Don’t worry. When I find out who did this, I’ll definitely avenge you.”

“But my innocence has been ruined!” Chen Jiao choked with grief. “It was President Yi who had sex with me, not anyone else!”

“I know, but President Yi was also drugged at that time. In the end, this matter can’t be blamed on President Yi.” Tang Zhe felt annoyed when he thought of this.

This distant cousin of his did not have a deep relationship with him, but she was a girl after all. She would definitely want an explanation for such a thing. However, the other party was President Yi!

There was nothing he could do!

If it were any other man, he would definitely ask for compensation.

“Why didn’t you run back then? President Yi shouldn’t have been conscious!” Tang Zhe asked her with a frown.

This was also the main reason why he had been puzzled and could not confront Yi Zheng.

Logically speaking, President Yi should have been unconscious at that time. Why would such a thing happen?

When Chen Jiao heard this, she pouted even more aggrievedly, her eyes filled with tears. “Cousin, after you left, I suddenly felt dizzy. Perhaps I was drugged too? Later, President Yi suddenly woke up and started to take off my clothes. After that… that happened!”

Tang Zhe held his forehead helplessly and waved his hand. “Alright, in short, don’t act rashly on this matter, let alone look for President Yi yourself. Listen to my arrangements, understand? If you’re disobedient, not only will you not be able to receive compensation, but you’ll probably not be able to keep this job.”

Chen Jiao nodded in a daze. There were still tears in the corners of her eyes, making her look pitiful.

After all, she was just a girl.

Tang Zhe’s heart suddenly softened. He casually took out a tissue and handed it to her. “Wipe your tears. I’ll send you back first. Don’t mention this to anyone first.”

Chen Jiao hummed softly and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She lowered her head and stopped talking.

Tang Zhe heaved a sigh of relief when she was so obedient. If Chen Jiao kept crying, this matter would be difficult to handle.

Now that Chen Jiao was so sensible, even if something really happened, President Yi could at least protect her for a lifetime. It could be considered her good fortune.

The car slowly drove to the bottom of a high-end district. This was the place Tang Zhe had arranged for Chen Jiao to live. It was very close to the company and very convenient to go to work.

Chen Jiao lowered her head the entire way and only revealed a few sobs when she got out of the car.

Tang Zhe’s heart ached. “Alright, don’t cry. Cousin will definitely find out who drugged you and President Yi.”

“Thank you, Cousin.” Chen Jiao raised her hand and gently wiped her tears. She did not look at Tang Zhe until she walked into the room and confirmed that Tang Zhe could no longer see her. Then, she secretly took out her phone and secretly sent a message to the person waiting for the news.

“Brother Han, I’ve succeeded. Just wait for my good news!” After sending the message, she lay on the bed with a happy expression.

She didn’t expect the President and the chief secretary to be so gullible!

Were they too stupid, or were her acting skills too good?

Now that there was already a crack in trust between Yi Zheng and that woman, it would probably not be long before she could rely on President Yi’s pity for her to control his heart!

However… Shi Man actually appeared in the hotel tonight. This was something she did not expect.

Thinking of this, she picked up her phone and told Jiang Han about Shi Man..
