278 Ask Yourself_1

The atmosphere in the office was oppressive, and Jiang Xi crouched by Rong Nian's legs, so startled she dared not let out a breath.

The sound of the cane tapping the floor gradually receded until "bang," the office door was slammed shut, and Jiang Xi's legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the floor.

Rong Nian pushed his chair back and looked at her expression, asking, "Scared?"

Jiang Xi gave a forced smile, "It's okay, but..."

She remembered that Old Sun had mentioned the Baize Group was under investigation, and she wondered how much of it was Rong Nian's doing.

"I thought..."

Rong Nian saw her hesitating and probably guessed what she wanted to ask.

He stretched out his hand to pull her out from under the desk and settled her on his lap.

"What, you think Uncle Dongbin, whom you've been biting, is a good person and feel guilty?"

Jiang Xi lowered her head, "I thought you didn't give me the USB drive because you wanted to protect the Gu Family."
