As dusk settled, a gentle ripple spread across his heart, and his gaze became complex and unpredictable.

Xiansi and Minglang opened the insulated food containers one by one, and the aroma wafted out.

"It smells delicious. Aunt Qiu's cooking skills are truly superb," ​​Minglang praised.

"This was made especially for the lady. You mustn't eat it," Xiansi warned in a low voice.

Minglang pursed his lips. "I know. Anyway, I'll have some tonight." Then he turned to Sang Yuwan. "Madam, please try some."

Sang Yuwan did not refuse; she picked up her chopsticks and tried everything.

Aunt Qiu's cooking skills are indeed excellent, and she understands the tastes of pregnant women very well.

I don't know where Rong Zhi found it.

Seeing that she had a good appetite, Minglang's anxiety gradually eased.

During a break in the restroom, he sent Mingzhan a text message.

"Second Young Master, Madam ate a bowl of rice and quite a few vegetables at noon today. Don't worry."

The other party replied instantly.

"Take good care of her."

"Absolutely."

Minglang had just finished replying when he received a call from Shen Qianjie.

"Speak, what is it?"

"Ah Lang, didn't we make up? Why are you still angry?" Shen Qianjie teased with a smile.

His bright eyes narrowed. "Don't think that just because Madam has forgiven you, I will let you go."

Shen Qianjie said in a wronged tone, "I just wanted to cause some trouble for Madam Bo, I didn't mean to do anything to her?"

Minglang snorted coldly, "If you hadn't started it, would Bo Yuheng have taken the opportunity to make a scene?"

"Sigh." Shen Qianjie sighed and continued, "How could I have known that old fox..."

He paused, then added, "He's just been released, you know that?"

Minglang was taken aback. "What did you say?"

Shen Qianjie said, "That old fox Bo Yuheng is really shrewd. He was released in less than half a month."

Minglang was astonished. "This is impossible?"

Shen Qianjie confirmed, "I saw someone pick him up with my own eyes. By the way, I also recorded a video. Do you want me to send it to you?"

Minglang gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."

Two minutes later, Sang Yuwan saw the video of Bo Yuheng coming out of the detention center.

After being detained for almost half a month, his spirits were not low at all; in fact, his complexion was quite rosy. He even looked like he had gained a lot of weight.

He swaggered out of the detention center and got into a black stretch Lincoln.

Shen Qianjie took the photo from the side, but didn't capture the license plate.

As soon as Bo Yuheng got into the car, the driver started the engine.

Sang Yuwan's pupils contracted, and her face turned frosty. "Go and find out who took Bo Yuheng away?"

Minglang replied, "Shen Qianjie said he investigated, but the information about the other party seems to be blocked."

Sang Yuwan looked up, her brows furrowing. "Does Second Master know about this?"

Minglang shook his head. "Shen Qianjie is Second Master's man, so he probably knows about it too."

Sang Yuwan took two deep breaths. "Go and investigate again to see if you can find any other clues."

"Yes." Minglang took the phone, turned around, and walked out.

Sang Yuwan leaned back, her brows furrowing more and more. "This person was able to surpass Rong Zhi, so he must have quite a background."

Xiansi knocked and entered. "Madam, Mr. Ji has arrived. Shall we begin the interview now?"

Sang Yuwan pinched the bridge of her nose, which was feeling sore, and said softly, "Let him in."

"Yes," Xian Si replied, opening the office door.

Ji Xiao, dressed in a brown suit, strode in. "Chairman Sang, hello."

The 28-year-old man was handsome, wore gold-rimmed glasses, and had a refined and cultured demeanor.

Sang Yuwan did not get up, her posture was dignified, and she slightly raised her eyelids. "President Ji, please sit down."

Ji Xiao pulled out a chair, slowly sat down, and looked at Sang Yuwan with gentle and measured eyes.

Sang Yuwan's eyes revealed no emotion as she spoke calmly, "President Ji, I have a pretty good understanding of your situation. You meet all of Bo's requirements. I only have one question for you."

"Chairman Sang, may I ask?" Ji Xiao asked calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

He was a professional manager recruited by a headhunting firm for the Bo Group.

If he succeeds in the interview, he will become the next CEO of Bo's Group.

Sang Yuwan parted her lips slightly, "President Ji, if I have a disagreement with the other shareholders on the board, whose side will you take?"

This question is practically a death trap.

Choosing either side is wrong.

Moreover, one cannot be perfunctory or say anything ambiguous.

For example, I support the side that is right.

When the two sides disagree on certain issues, there is no right or wrong.

Sang Yuwan remained calm and carefully observed Ji Xiao's changing expressions.

To everyone's surprise, he showed no sign of panic. With a slight smile, he slowly said, "I will stand by your side."

Sang Yuwan's lips twitched almost imperceptibly. "This is not the answer I wanted."

Ji Xiao remained calm and explained with a smile, "Chairman Sang, may I tell you the truth?"

Sang Yuwan pursed her lips and said, "Okay."

Ji Xiao said gently, "Chairman Sang, there are clearly people more suitable for this position than me, but you chose me. I think I should understand your purpose."

Sang Yuwan's brow furrowed, and she smiled, "Tell me, who's more suitable than you?"

Ji Xiao remained calm and named someone, "Second Master Bo, President Rong."

Sang Yuwan smiled, her expression unreadable. "Is President Ji implying indirectly that I'm blind?"

Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, and finally a lie appeared on his handsome face. "Chairman Sang has misunderstood."

Just as the headhunter had predicted, the new head of the Bo Group was just as cunning and ruthless as Bo Xingzhi. In fact, he was even more difficult to deal with.

Sang Yuwan smiled, looked away from his face, took the pen, and signed her name on the employment contract.

Then, she stood up and extended her hand to Ji Xiao, "Mr. Ji, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."

Ji Xiao was surprised that the interview was so quick, and hurriedly stood up and reached out his hand.

The two shook hands politely.

Sang Yuwan handed him the employment contract, "When can President Ji start work? Do you need me to give you time to prepare?"

Ji Xiao replied, "Tomorrow."

Sang Yuwan nodded slightly, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "Go and see your office."

Ji Xiao understood and immediately changed his words, "Chairman, I'll go down first."

"Okay." Sang Yuwan watched him leave.

Thud—

The office door slowly closed.

Sang Yuwan raised an eyebrow, a complex smile appearing in her eyes.

No wonder they spent a lot of money to poach this professional manager.

He saw her intentions perfectly clearly.

As he said, no one is more suitable for the position of president of the Bo Group than Rong Zhi.

The reason she didn't choose him was because she hadn't yet seen through his true intentions.

Even though their first encounter was orchestrated by Bo Xingzhi.

What he did and said to her afterward made her unsure whether he was an enemy or a friend.

She needs to find someone to keep him in check.

She was very satisfied with Ji Xiao's answer.

Just as Ning Wanzhen had feared, she was indeed cultivating her own power to ensure that no matter what happened in the future, she would not let the Bo family fall into the hands of others.
