Chapter 112 - First Encounter of Fragility

In the spacious and bright office, Xia Zhuozhuo gently flipped the papers in her hands. Her eyes were sharp, but she stopped involuntarily when she touched the profound business secrets in the middle of the document. "Are you sure you want me to continue reading these secrets?" Xia Zhuozhuo looked up at Si Shenxing, who was sitting behind the desk, with a hint of doubt in her eyes. Si Shenxing smiled slightly, and there was an imperceptible trust in that smile: "You won't, right?" Xia Zhuozhuo was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Of course, I won't disclose these secrets." Si Shenxing's eyes flashed with a hint of satisfaction, and he nodded slightly: "That's good, I believe you." "But, the number of times we have met, it seems that it has not exceeded ten times, right?" Xia Zhuozhuo frowned slightly and looked at him in confusion. Si Shenxing smiled indifferently: "We will meet often in the future, right?" Xia Zhuozhuo sighed helplessly, and she found that she seemed unable to refuse this man's request. So, she lowered her head again and continued to read the document. The content of the document was long and complicated, but Xia Zhuozhuo read it very seriously. Twenty minutes passed in a flash, and she finally finished reading the last page. "I'm done, can I go now?" She looked up at Si Shenxing, but found that he had closed his eyes at some point, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep. Xia Zhuozhuo frowned, she was not sure if Si Shenxing was really asleep. But out of politeness, she still asked softly: "Did you hear me? I'm done reading." However, there was only silence in response to her. Xia Zhuozhuo shook her head helplessly, she turned around and prepared to leave, but stopped at the door. She looked back at Si Shenxing lying on the chair, and an inexplicable worry surged in her heart. She hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go back and cover him with his suit jacket. She gently put the jacket on him, and then carefully tucked it in for him. However, just as she turned around to leave, her suit slipped off. Xia Zhuozhuo frowned, and she found that Si Shenxing's face was extremely pale, and the sweat on his forehead was clearly visible. She reached out and touched his forehead, which was surprisingly hot. "This guy is so burned!" Xia Zhuozhuo was secretly shocked, and she immediately took out her mobile phone and prepared to call the emergency number. However, at this moment, Si Shenxing's mobile phone rang suddenly. Xia Zhuozhuo glanced at the caller ID, and it was a person named "Ama". She hesitated for a moment, but finally answered the phone. "Hello, Master." The voice came from the other end of the phone. "It's me..." Xia Zhuozhuo's voice was a little embarrassed, and she didn't know how to explain her identity. However, Ama on the other end of the phone immediately responded: "Miss Xia, is that you? What happened to the young master?" Xia Zhuozhuo briefly explained Si Shenxing's situation, and then said: "Send someone you can trust, I'm leaving." Ama quickly agreed: "Okay, Miss Xia, please wait a moment, I'll send someone over right away." Xia Zhuozhuo nodded and hung up the phone. She glanced at Si Shenxing lying on the chair, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She didn't know why she felt this way about this man, but she knew that she couldn't just leave like that. So, she decided to stay and wait for Ama's people to come. After a while, there was a knock on the door, and a strange face and a doctor walked in. Xia Zhuozhuo recognized the doctor, who was the one who treated Xia Huaiwu before. Both of them were very polite to Xia Zhuozhuo, and the doctor thanked her repeatedly: "Miss Xia, thank you for your trouble. How is the young master?" Xia Zhuozhuo shook her head: "He has a high fever. I have covered him with a coat, but it still doesn't work. You should check him quickly." The doctor nodded and immediately began to examine Si Shenxing. Xia Zhuozhuo stood aside, waiting quietly. After a while, the doctor finished the examination, and he looked at Xia Zhuozhuo and said: "Miss Xia, the young master's fever has subsided a little, but he still needs to take medicine as soon as possible. Don't worry, we will take good care of him." Xia Zhuozhuo nodded: "That's good. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." After that, she turned and left the office. However, the moment she went out, she couldn't help but look back at Si Shenxing lying on the chair. She found that his eyes were slightly open and he was looking at her quietly. Xia Zhuozhuo was shocked. She didn't expect Si Shenxing to be pretending to sleep. She didn't know why he did this, but she knew that she was deeply attracted to him. She shook her head and tried to put this emotion behind her. However, when she walked to the elevator entrance, she couldn't help but look back. She found that Si Shenxing's eyes were still following her closely, and his eyes were full of deep attachment and reluctance. Xia Zhuozhuo's heart trembled suddenly, and she didn't know how to face this emotion. She knew that there were too many gaps and obstacles between her and Si Shenxing, but she couldn't deny the inexplicable feelings she had for him. She took a deep breath and pressed the elevator button. The elevator door opened and she walked in. However, at the moment the elevator door closed, she couldn't help but look back. She found that Si Shenxing's figure was still there, and his eyes were locked on her. At that moment, Xia Zhuozhuo's heart surged with an inexplicable touch and warmth. She knew that she could no longer escape this emotion. She decided to face it bravely, no matter what the result was. On the other side, Si Shenxing looked at Xia Zhuozhuo's leaving back, and a deep sense of loss and reluctance surged in his heart. He didn't know why he pretended to sleep to test her, but he knew that he was deeply attracted to her. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then, he called Ama: "How is the situation in the studio?" Ama immediately told the truth: "Master, everything is normal in the studio. However, the agent named He Xidong seems to have some problems..." Si Shenxing's eyes turned cold in an instant: "Oh? What's the problem?" Ama reported the situation in detail, and Si Shenxing's face became more and more ugly. Finally, he coldly spit out two words: "Open." Ama was slightly stunned, and then immediately replied: "Yes, Master." After hanging up the phone, Si Shenxing sat quietly at his desk, his eyes deep and complicated. He didn't know why he had such feelings for Xia Zhuozhuo, but he knew that he had to face it bravely. Three days later, a report on Xia Zhuo was placed on Si Shenxing's desk. He carefully read every word in the report, and his eyes became more and more solemn. Finally, he took a deep breath and called Xia Zhuozhuo... He had foreseen He Xidong's fate the moment he opened his mouth. That reminder was just a routine for a subordinate. In the office, doctors were busy with Si Shenxing's sudden high fever. Although he had antipyretic drugs in hand, Si Shenxing knew that it would be difficult to recover quickly with this drug alone. He always pursued efficiency, and the same was true for treating diseases. "Master, I'll go to the pharmacy and find some more effective drugs for you." The subordinate asked eagerly. Si Shenxing nodded slightly, and after the subordinate left, he picked up the phone again and said to A Mai on the other end in a deep voice: "Xia Huaile's third brother is actually Si Xiang's man?" Xia Huaile, an artist with both talent and beauty and superb skills, should have been famous long ago. However, the company seemed to deliberately ignore him, and the reason was puzzling. Si Shenxing used to not care about this, after all, Sixiang was just a small part of the S Group's huge territory. But now, the appearance of Xia Zhuozhuo forced him to re-examine the matter. "Ama, find out the truth. I want to know why Xia Huaile has not been able to get good resources." Si Shenxing's tone was full of unquestionable determination, "I want to see the result today." Ama accepted the order on the other end of the phone. On the other side, Xia Zhuozhuo had left the branch and dialed a number he had not contacted for a long time, with mixed emotions in his heart.
