Su Yi made three calls in a row, and the call was connected when she got off the elevator. Su Yi asked her where she had been. Xu Ruoxing looked at He Qu who had been comforted, and said to Su Yi, "I'll be back soon."

She hung up the phone, pressed her eyebrows, and looked at He Qu: "Let's go, I'll take you back."

He Qu's clothes were blown against her body by the wind, and she looked skinny. She nodded slightly, and two security guards followed them down the elevator. Xu Ruoxing sent a message to Li Chen: [People are coming down, please contact the police and Mr. Qu and communicate with them about the situation.]

Li Chen didn't call, he just sent a message: [Got it.]

Xu Ruoxing exited the chat page with Li Chen, opened the address book, and saw the note from Su Yi's mother. After a long silence, the security guard said, "Mr. Xu, we're here."

She came back to her senses: "Thank you for your hard work."

Then he took He Qu back to the car.

Su Yi was surprised to see an extra person and looked at Xu Ruoxing. Xu Ruoxing said to He Qu, "Sit in the back. I'll take you home first."

He Qu nodded, still in a state of dismay, not quite right. Seeing her like this, Xu Ruoxing sent another message to Li Chen: [Ask He Qu's friend to wait at the door and accompany He Qu for the next two days.]

Knowing what Xu Ruoxing meant, Li Chen sent: [We have already contacted them. ]

Xu Ruoxing put down her phone. Su Yi saw this and grabbed her bag. She was a little confused by the unknown situation. She had just called several times before Xu Ruoxing answered. Her voice was a little lower than before: "Wife..."

"Let's send her home first." Xu Ruoxing looked at Su Yi and explained, "This is an employee of our company."

Why would her company's employees come to Huaihai with such an expression? Su Yi wanted to ask, but she knew that now was not a good time. She glanced at Xu Ruoxing's tense face and nodded: "Yeah."

The road was very quiet. No one spoke in front or behind. Only the music in the car could be heard. He Qu looked nervous and looked out the window from time to time. Occasionally, her cell phone vibrated and her face turned pale. She didn't dare to look down.

No matter how you look at it, it's not normal.

Su Yi didn't say a word. She waited until Xu Ruoxing sent He Qu home before asking, "Was that an employee of your company?"

She said, “It looks familiar.”

Xu Ruoxing said: "I used to be a designer in your company."

She must not be from their group, otherwise Su Yi would have recognized her. Maybe they had attended a conference together, so she would feel familiar. Su Yi nodded: "What's wrong with her?"

Xu Ruoxing just opened her mouth, then paused for a moment and said, "She encountered some problems at work."

Su Yi said "Oh".

Xu Ruoxing said: "Let me take you home."

Su Yi turned around and said, "Are you coming back for dinner?"

Xu Ruoxing said: "I don't think I can make it back in time."

She still had to go to the company to deal with He Qu's follow-up matters. Su Yi hummed, and when she arrived at the door of her house, she got out of the car and said to Xu Ruoxing, "Drive slowly on the road."

Xu Ruoxing nodded.

After watching Su Yi enter the house, Xu Ruoxing restarted the engine. The car made a buzzing sound. She turned on Bluetooth and called Li Chen.

Li Chen had just finished negotiating with the police when Xu Ruoxing called. She took a sip of coffee and said, "I'm so busy."

Xu Ruoxing said, "I'll be there in a minute. Is the meeting over?"

"Not yet. How can I sit here after hearing this?" Li Chen twisted his nose and said in a sleepy tone, "I don't know what He Qu is thinking. Is she crazy? Does she really think Huaihai will feel guilty about this? Will she not exploit others in the future?"
