Chapter 126: Chapter 126 She Doesn’t Need to Know Your Name (2)_1

All the seats in the General Manager’s office were empty.

The door to Han Jingnian’s office was closed, suggesting that it was impossible to tell if anyone was inside.

Having chatted with Zhang Te, his assistant, a few days ago, she had learnt that when Han Jingnian was not at the company, he was at the Four Seasons Hotel. Therefore, she decided to check his office first, and if he was not there, she would go to the Four Seasons Hotel.

Reaching the office, Xia Wan’an knocked on the door, realised that there was no response, assumed that Han Jingnian had left the company, and casually twisted the door handle to confirm whether it was indeed locked and then leave.

Who could have imagined that with her slight turn, the door actually opened with a "clack".

In Han Jingnian’s black and white-toned office, it was not vacant; rather, it was occupied by several people.

Besides Assistant Zhang Te and Han Jingnian, there were two shareholders of the Han Corporation whom Xia Wan’an had seen at the annual meeting but didn’t know. There were also two completely unfamiliar faces.

The sudden opening of the door drew the attention of everyone in the room.

Xia Wan’an’s face turned red with embarrassment. Not waiting for anyone inside to speak, she quickly preempted, "I-I-I’m sorry, I didn’t know anyone was here, I, I, I..."

It seemed like no matter what she said, it wouldn’t excuse her abrupt intrusion, so she shut up, closed the door, and prepared to make her exit.

However, she barely managed to close the door the next second, much less turn around to leave, when it was opened again and her wrist was seized, "Why are you here?"

"I..." Xia Wan’an turned to look at Han Jingnian, who had chased after her, and whispered, "Grandma asked me to check on you."

Xia Wan’an assumed that Han Jingnian would be annoyed but surprisingly, after she finished speaking, he lightly uttered an "oh", took her by the wrist into the office, and made her sit next to him.

Looking blankly at Han Jingnian, Xia Wan’an felt rather dazed, as if she was in a dream.

With a composed expression, Han Jingnian threw a glance at Zhang Te, "Pour some water."

Zhang Te immediately went to do as he was told.

"Who is this?" asked the man in white, one of the two unknown men.

"My wife."

Xia Wan’an, about to say "I’m his friend", was left dizzy again by Han Jingnian’s three words.

"So you’re the sister-in-law...sister-in-law, hello, I am..." began the man in white.

However, before he could finish, Han Jingnian stated, "She doesn’t need to know your name."

The room fell silent.

Showcasing no signs of unease, Han Jingnian instructed, "Let’s go back to what we were discussing."

At his command, everyone switched their attention away from Xia Wan’an and returned to the matter at hand.

Xia Wan’an saw that they were engaged in a heated discussion, so to not interrupt, she looked down and fiddled with her fingers.

She listened to their conversation, catching bits and pieces, and by the end, she had finally grasped what exactly had happened to the company.

It turned out that Eileen, the chief designer of Han Corporation’s design department, who was a renowned designer for ten years, had flipped.

That is to say, she secretly gave the design drafts, into which Han Corporation had invested a large amount of manpower and resources for the better part of the year, to a competitor. Consequently, the competitor had directly put the product on the market, leaving Han Corporation unable to use this design draft, or risk infringement.

No wonder the company officials and security personnel were activated all day long. This was a commercial crime!

However, ignoring Eileen’s issue for a moment, the current situation of the Han Corporation was undoubtedly a crisis. The competitor having launched the crucial new product before them was equivalent to Han Corporation not having any new products to launch, which would certainly be a major disaster for any company.

"The most pressing matter at hand is to provide a new design..."

"That’s true, but a new design is not something we can have on demand."

"Moreover, Eileen outclasses everyone in the field of design. Where are we going to find someone to match her?"

"..."

Overhearing the roomful of people discussing heatedly, Xia Wan’an, who was feeling drowsy while reclining on the couch, gave a yawn, opened her eyes, and muttered with a lisp, "What about letting me try?"

"Okay." Almost simultaneously, Han Jingnian, who was sitting next to her, replied.
