No one noticed Yan Xi's condition at the moment.
The Fu Corporation's annual meeting had seen an employee die on the spot.
This was a topic with a lot of buzz.
Everyone's attention was drawn to Fu Corporation.
Yan Xi hid in a corner, too afraid to approach. The women who had caused trouble for her just now were the ones involved in the incident.
Was it an accident?
How could such a coincidence happen?
Yan Xi didn't dare to think further. But if it wasn't an accident, then who could have done this to them?
Could it be that man from earlier?
It was impossible that the man had done this because they had bullied Yan Xi, just to vent her anger.
What was the truth?
Yan Xi dared not dwell on it.
But now, with so much happening, Yan Xi couldn't go to him for confirmation.
She could only watch helplessly from the side as Fu Yan Ting busied himself.
"Make way, make way."
Suddenly, several doctors pushed Yan Xi aside and ran towards the scene. After all, for Fu Corporation's annual meeting, to avoid unnecessary incidents, Fu Yan Ting had made arrangements beforehand, with doctors on standby outside.
It would have been fine if nothing had happened.
But if something did happen, they could immediately step in, saving a lot of time and preventing many unnecessary troubles.
The several girls had already stopped breathing, but since the doctors were Fu Yan Ting's people, even so, they would not reveal this fact in such a situation with so many people watching. Even if they did, it would only be a private report to Fu Yan Ting.
The girls were rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Fu Yan Ting looked at Yan Xi's pale face, but at this moment, he couldn't care less. As the CEO of Fu Corporation, he had to go to the hospital at this time.
Fu Yan Ting surveyed Yan Xi, and after a moment, he spoke, "Xi Xi, I'll call He Yun to pick you up and take you home. I might be back late."
Yan Xi shook her head and looked at Fu Yan Ting. After a long pause, she finally said, "I want to go home with you."
Fu Yan Ting pursed his lips and did not respond.
Yan Xi spoke again, "Fu Yan Ting, you said that no matter what happens in the future, we will face it together. Now that something has happened to Fu Corporation, are you going to push me away?"
Yan Xi's voice was soft, but it gave Fu Yan Ting a great sense of security.
Fu Yan Ting nodded and said, "Alright then, but Xi Xi, I might be very busy and won't have much energy to take care of you."
"I'm not a three-year-old child. I don't need your care. I can take care of myself."
Fine, since Yan Xi had said it that far, Fu Yan Ting no longer insisted.
To insist further would seem affected.
The group went to the hospital, and the girls were directly taken to the ICU for resuscitation.
As the CEO of Fu Corporation, Fu Yan Ting had to contact the families of the girls, consider compensation issues afterward, and stabilize the emotions of the company's employees.
However, Fu Wen Hai appeared at this moment, intending to cause trouble.
Although he was also a member of the Fu family, at this time, he did not comfort Fu Yan Ting but instead kicked him while he was down.
Upon hearing Fu Wen Hai's words, Fu Yan Ting's already furrowed brow knitted even tighter.
Fu Wen Hai, however, carelessly observed Fu Yan Ting and said word for word, "Nephew, with such a big incident happening at Fu Corporation, those employees will definitely think it's your fault. If you continue to stay in the company, it might be counterproductive."
"Whether it's my fault or not, everyone knows it in their hearts."
After saying this, Fu Yan Ting went back to his business.
Fu Wen Hai watched Fu Yan Ting's retreating figure, a slight smile curving his lips.
It seemed the Fu family was about to change.
Not far away, the mysterious man walked out, observed Yan Xi, and asked with concern, "Miss Yan, you don't look well. Would you like to rest for a while?"
Yan Xi regained her senses, looked up at the man, and recalled that he had been present at the banquet when those girls had caused trouble for her.
Yan Xi asked a question instead of answering, "Did you orchestrate their accident?"
In fact, Yan Xi wanted to ask if he was the one who had harmed them.
However, Yan Xi controlled her temper and stared at the man, asking the question more indirectly.
The man stared at Yan Xi. Upon hearing her question, he was not angry but even more smug. He did not answer directly and instead asked,
"Miss Yan, aren't you curious about the relationship between me and Fu Yan Ting?"
Yan Xi pursed her lips and did not respond.
Seeing that Yan Xi did not reply, the man did not get angry. He just kept staring intently at Yan Xi, lost in thought.
Soon, Fu Yan Ting contacted the families of the girls.
When the families arrived at the hospital, they began to cry and clamor, holding Fu Yan Ting accountable.
Their daughters, who had been raised so well, had suddenly met with an accident. It was all Fu Corporation's fault.
Fu Yan Ting did not get angry at the commotion caused by the families; he bore it all.
Yan Xi couldn't bear to watch any longer.
These people knew how to cause trouble. They were pushing Fu Yan Ting to his limits, giving him no chance to explain.
Yan Xi couldn't stand it any longer and couldn't help but step forward, shielding Fu Yan Ting behind her. Her small body held great strength as she protected him.
In the Fu family, even Grandma had educated Fu Yan Ting that boys should bravely take responsibility. What was yours to bear, you must carry. You cannot evade when faced with problems.
Therefore, Fu Yan Ting had always been accustomed to solving problems himself.
But now, Yan Xi was shielding him, telling him not to worry, that she would protect him.
In fact, this minor difficulty was not a problem for Fu Yan Ting at all; he could handle it.
But for some reason, when he met Yan Xi's gaze and heard her words, Fu Yan Ting suddenly wanted to give up and let Yan Xi protect him for once.
Being protected by a girl like this for the first time felt truly strange.
Fu Yan Ting himself couldn't articulate what kind of feeling it was.
However, the families of these girls were not willing to let the matter rest.
Fu Yan Ting had been magnanimous enough to offer ten million in compensation to each family, but the families continued to make a scene.
Yan Xi truly couldn't stand it any longer. She couldn't help but frown, look at the troublemaking family members, and say calmly, "If you continue to make such a scene, you won't even get compensation. Are you sure you still want to continue?"
The families exchanged glances.
