"Yes." Yin Xi's heart tightened, and she stood up from the chair, taking a step back. She had never seen such a scene.
As soon as the words fell, the middle-aged woman sat down on the ground and cried out loudly.
"My husband died so tragically! We have the elderly and young children; how can we live in the future!"
The men behind her glared at Yin Xi like fierce gods, clearly there to back her up.
Han Haoming's eyes darkened slightly. He quickly stepped forward and helped the woman up. "This is a hospital, you cannot make loud noises. Get up quickly!
I am discussing compensation with Miss Yin."
Hearing this, Yin Xi breathed a sigh of relief, her face sincere.
"Right, right. Since the accident was my father's responsibility, I will compensate you whatever the amount."
She suddenly turned to Han Haoming. "Officer Han, let's proceed according to legal procedures."
Yin Xi walked out of the hospital and looked up at the rising sun in the east. Tears welled up in her eyes again.
But she knew it wasn't the time to be sad. She had to rush to her father's company, Hongrui Group, to stabilize the situation.

In the presidential suite of the Getai Hotel, Qin Siye stood tall and imposing, dressed in a suit and tie by the window, exuding an aura of coldness.
His handsome face, as if sculpted by divine hands, was filled with soul-stirring anger.
He slowly took out his phone and made a call.
"Find out who drugged me last night!"
"Yes." Zhao Ze, his special assistant on the other end of the line, widened his eyes in disbelief.
Who dared to be so audacious as to deal such a treacherous blow to the CEO?
Were they tired of living?
"Also, find out who the woman was who broke into my room last night."
A woman? Zhao Ze nearly dropped his jaw.
Could it be that the CEO, who had always been a germaphobe and avoided women, had a one-night stand with a stranger after being drugged last night?
"Okay. I'll get on it right away," Zhao Ze replied hastily.
This was the CEO's private matter, and as his assistant, he dared not ask further questions.
After hanging up, Qin Siye lit a cigarette and gazed into the distance with deep eyes.
He had attended a banquet last night and felt unwell, so he quickly returned to the presidential suite he had booked long-term.
He had not alerted anyone and had taken a thirty-minute cold shower.
He believed that with his self-control, he could overcome it.
Who knew that the woman would suddenly barge into his room, completely shattering his restraint?
What was most infuriating was that she had secretly slipped away while he was asleep and had also taken something important from him.
He would move heaven and earth to find that woman.
As he strode towards the bed, Qin Siye's peripheral vision caught a dark red stain on the white bedsheet.
His brow furrowed. Was it her first time last night?
Recalling her passion, it didn't seem quite right.

As Yin Xi drove her red car into the parking lot of Hongrui Group, she saw that the main entrance was blocked and a crowd had gathered.
Her heart leaped. She immediately parked her car in an inconspicuous spot.
Had they been this quick? Had the company already been taken over by the authorities?
Hurriedly opening her phone, Yin Xi quickly found reports of her father's car accident in the local news. The company's stock had plummeted to the bottom as soon as trading opened, incurring heavy losses. Creditors from all sides had swarmed in and blocked the company's entrance.
What should she do? As a girl who hadn't even graduated from college, how could she face all this?
It seemed she couldn't stay here any longer. She had to leave quickly and find other solutions.
Perhaps she could discuss it with Chengyu. With the Su family's influence, they might be able to help her through this difficult time.
Yin Xi stopped her car in a less crowded area and called Su Chengyu several times, but he didn't answer.
Just as she put down her phone in utter disappointment, she received a reply on WeChat.
"Getai Hotel, Room 506. If you need me, you can come."
This message was like a beacon of light in the darkness for Yin Xi. A flicker of hope finally appeared on her delicate, pale face.
She quickly drove towards the hotel. As she passed a shopping mall, Yin Xi stopped to buy herself a new set of clothes.
Having experienced what happened there last night, she felt complicated emotions and increased vigilance upon entering again.
Changing into new clothes might make her feel safer.
As she rushed to Room 506 and was about to knock, she found that the door was not fully closed, and she could hear a woman's voice from inside.
"Chengyu, you're so naughty. You were so fierce last night, and it hurt so much. Why are you coming again now?"
"It's not the first time; how can it still hurt? You little temptress, you're deliberately provoking me!"
This woman's voice sounded so familiar. Could it be her?
This was impossible.
Yin Xi's body trembled, and her eyes welled up with tears.
At this moment, rapid panting could be heard from inside the room. The woman then asked in a soft, coquettish voice,
"Chengyu, Yin Xi... Yin Xi, is she as passionate as me?"
"Don't mention her to me. She's like a hedgehog; she never lets me touch her. She's far worse than you!"
With a "bang," Yin Xi forcefully kicked open the door.
She saw clothes scattered all over the carpet, the bed in disarray and wrinkled, and the air filled with a suggestive atmosphere.
This smell was utterly nauseating.
Su Chengyu, bare-chested, turned and saw Yin Xi's face. He scrambled off Lu Yushan in a panic, quickly grabbing a bath towel to wrap around his waist.
"Yin Xi, why are you here?"
Why would he ask that? Did he not send that message?
She shot him a scarlet-eyed glance, ignoring him.
If it wasn't him, it must have been Lu Yushan.
Did she deliberately send that message to make her see this scene and humiliate her?
Yin Xi quickly walked over to Lu Yushan, looking at her smug and mocking face, and slapped her hard.
"You vile woman! I trusted you so much, and you could do something so shameless."
Lu Yushan's mind went blank. She never expected the usually gentle and cheerful Yin Xi to hit her.
"You... you dare to hit me? I'll tear you apart!" She covered her slightly swollen cheek, pulled up her slipping clothes, and lunged at Yin Xi.
At this moment, Su Chengyu had already put on his clothes. Seeing this, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yushan.
"Yushan, calm down!" Perhaps feeling guilty about their affair, Su Chengyu's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
"I'm hitting you, you green tea bitch! You act so pitiful and harmless on the surface, but behind my back, you do such disgraceful and dirty things!"
Yin Xi did not back down. She straightened her back, pointed at Lu Yushan's nose, and cursed furiously.
"What did I do? Chengyu has long loved me, and we are mutually in love." Lu Yushan remained relentless, reaching out to grab her, wanting to avenge the slap.
