Chapter 563 Mysterious Bookcase
Chapter 563 Mysterious Bookcase
Not moving.
The door was locked from the inside.
That means there is indeed someone in the office.
I wonder if something happened to He Yiqing!
Ren Hui became even more worried, and he slammed his palm hard on the door panel.
The banging sounds attracted several curious glances from the cubicle in the distance.
He shouted, "He Yiqing, are you in trouble? How about I call security for you?"
Time seemed to stretch infinitely amid the anxious knocking on the door.
Every second felt like a heavy sandbag.
Just when Ren Hui was about to turn around and look for the security guard—
"Click."
An extremely slight click came from inside the door lock.
Then, the door of the assistant's office slowly opened a crack.
He Yiqing's face appeared behind the crack in the door. She said in a thin voice, "Ren Hui? Are you knocking on the door?"
"Uh, yes, it's me..."
Ren Hui was stunned for a moment.
He noticed that He Yiqing's face was a little pale.
Like a piece of paper that has been crumpled and then barely smoothed out.
The carefully applied eye makeup was a little smudged, and the inside of the lower lip seemed to be broken, with a little dark red blood scab.
The most eye-catching thing is the obvious redness and swelling on the chin.
There were even slight purple bruises on the edges, which were particularly obvious against the pale skin.
Also, the woman's off-white silk shirt had its collar askew, one side tucked carelessly into her skirt, while the other side was wrinkled and pulled out.
It just looks wrong.
Ren Hui said tentatively, "I knocked on the door just now, but no one answered. I thought something happened to you, so I got a little anxious."
After saying that, he raised his eyes and calmly scanned the space behind the woman.
There were only huge floor-to-ceiling windows reflecting the cold city skyline outside.
Apart from the desk being slightly tilted and a few documents dropped on the floor, there was nothing else unusual.
The leather sofa was empty and the coffee table was spotless.
There was only a faint scent of He Yiqing's cool perfume in the air.
Ren Hui felt more and more puzzled.
How can it be?
The door that I couldn't open no matter how hard I knocked.
There was also He Yiqing's suppressed sobbing.
Including her now untidy clothes...
Ren Hui's gaze returned to He Yiqing with some inquiry.
He Yiqing trembled slightly, then lowered her head, avoiding Ren Hui's gaze and said, "I'm working hard in there, nothing happened. Thank you for your concern. Do you have anything else to say?"
Ren Hui came back to his senses and explained, "Oh, it's like this. I have a document I need to check with you. Can you let me in?"
He Yiqing pursed her lips, nodded and said, "Sure, please come in."
Ren Hui smiled at He Yiqing and walked into her assistant's office.
At this time, a built-in bookcase next to it caught the man's attention.
The dark walnut bookcase stood silently, like an insurmountable barrier.
Ren Hui frowned, thinking that the bookcase was very out of place and did not match the overall layout of the office.
He walked over tentatively and was about to open it when He Yiqing suddenly spoke from behind him, "Assistant Ren, where are the documents? Can we start checking them now?"
"okay."
Ren Hui nodded.
He took another look at the bookcase before walking over.
The man placed the document on the table and gently spread it out.
He Yiqing sat down and began to check the documents.
Perhaps because he had entered the working state, He Yiqing looked much calmer than before.
However, because he was closer, Ren Hui was more certain that the red mark on He Yiqing's chin was caused by a bite.
His eyes moved and he had an idea in his mind.
He Yiqing didn't know what Ren Hui was thinking.
After carefully checking the documents, she handed them to him with both hands: "Yes, everything on them is consistent. You can submit them anytime."
"it is good."
Ren Hui put away the documents and continued to say with a smile, "Thank you for your help."
"You're welcome."
As He Yiqing spoke, she stood up and made a gesture to see the guest off.
Ren Hui didn't linger for long and said politely, "Then I'll be leaving first. You helped me this time. If you need anything at work next time, remember to look for me."
"of course."
He Yiqing didn't hesitate, "We entered the company together and serve Mr. Yun together, so of course we have to cooperate sincerely."
"Ah."
Ren Hui nodded and made a gesture to leave.
Just when He Yiqing was about to see the guest off, the man suddenly turned around, walked to the bookcase and opened it.
Ren Hui was convinced that there must be someone hiding in this bookcase of moderate width and height.
But the moment I opened it, I found it was empty.
He stayed where he was, not knowing what to say.
He Yiqing looked at Ren Hui's sudden action, blinked, and asked lightly: "Ren Hui, what are you doing?"
"I……"
Ren Hui opened his mouth, laughed dryly, and said, "Oh, I just think that this bookcase in your office is very special. I want to open it and see what's inside."
He Yiqing continued to smile without changing her expression: "The bookcase was already here before I came. I don't read books, so what could be in it?"
"Well, that's it."
Ren Hui nodded.
Since he didn't see what he expected, he had no reason to stay any longer.
Ren Hui said a few more words and then said goodbye.
But before leaving, he still looked at He Yiqing with suspicion.
He Yiqing looked calm and let him look at her.
Only after closing the door did she lean against it and let out a long sigh of relief.
The woman raised her eyes and looked at the abrupt bookcase again.
He reached out and touched the bite mark on his chin, and suddenly laughed.
At this moment, the phone on the desk rang.
He Yiqing walked over and answered the call: "Hello?"
Yun Yi's calm and indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ren Hui is gone?"
He Yiqing: "Leave."
Yun Yi: "Come to me."
He Yiqing: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, He Yiqing walked to the bookcase and opened the closed door.
She reached out her hand and fumbled around inside, and then the bookcase suddenly split open on both sides.
He Yiqing lifted her foot and walked to the other side.
The spacious and almost empty president's office was filled with the mellow and cool aftertaste of top-quality cigars.
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a cold bird's-eye view of the city's steel forest, silently highlighting the owner's status.
Yun Yi stood in the middle of the office, his back to the wall of bookshelves that connected the two worlds.
An expensive custom-made suit jacket was casually draped over the armrest of a leather seat.
The white shirt was completely open, and even the belt was not fastened.
He tilted his head slightly, his cold jawline tense, and seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Mr. Yun..."
He Yiqing walked over with a smile, and the bookcase slowly closed behind her.
The woman climbed onto the man's shoulders from behind, her tone coquettish, "Boss Yun loves me and has never assigned me any work. I didn't expect that my colleagues would find me anyway."
Yun Yi turned around, lifted her chin with his finger, and said something with a hint of meaning: "If you hadn't untied your belt so quickly, we would have had time to come to my office."
He Yiqing laughed sweetly, "I'm sorry, because of my negligence, I disturbed Mr. Yun's interest."
"Then you have to make amends..."
Yun Yi grabbed He Yiqing's long black hair with his slender fingers, violently pressed her against the French window, and ordered, "Continue..."
