Chapter 55 Taking Over the Company
Bai Yishu pulled He Yunshen to sit on a chair next to her.
She glanced at the ward, hesitated for a moment, and then decided to speak.
"My father is not in good health right now, and I'm thinking... I'm thinking of taking over the company."
Looking into her persistent and stubborn eyes, He Yun Shen felt a slight touch in a corner of his heart.
"I know you want to help your father."
He raised his hand and gently pinched Bai Yishu's cheek, his gesture incredibly affectionate.
"However, running a company is no easy task. Are you confident?"
He didn't actually object to her taking over the company; he just wanted to hear her thoughts and was also thinking about how to better help her.
Bai Yishu pursed her lips. She knew that running a company was not easy, especially bringing a company on the verge of bankruptcy back to life.
But after this incident, she hopes to give her parents a good rest and also avoid putting herself in such a passive position.
"I know it won't be easy, but I hope that the Bai family can get through this crisis and start afresh."
He Yun Shen gazed at her, his eyes swirling with complex emotions. Suddenly, he chuckled softly, his voice low and gentle.
"Good, it's good that you have this intention. I will help you, not only with this investment, but also with whatever the Bai family needs in the future. I will do my best to help."
His tone was firm, and he had already begun to think about how to secretly help the Bai family.
"However, you have to promise me one thing."
Bai Yishu asked curiously, "What is it?"
Promise me that no matter what, you will take care of yourself first.
He Yun Shen held her shoulders and pulled her closer, his tone still gentle, but with a hint of domineering.
"Don't push yourself into a corner like you did this time, for the sake of the company. Can you do that?"
When Bai Yishu heard him bring up this matter, she felt even more guilty. She lowered her head and replied in a muffled voice, "I know, I won't do anything foolish again."
He Yun Shen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her nod, and couldn't help but pull her into his arms, resting his chin lightly on the top of her head.
"Yi Shu, you promised me, and you must keep your promise. I don't want to see you in that situation again."
Bai Yishu hugged him tightly, ignoring the stares of other people in the hospital, and her unease and worry vanished.
Shortly after her father was discharged from the hospital, Bai Yishu took over the company's affairs.
However, this job was more difficult than she had imagined. There was a lot to learn and understand in the early stages, and the files piled up like a small mountain on her desk. Bai Yishu stayed at the company until late at night almost every day before going home.
That day, after finishing his work, He Yun Shen glanced at his watch, picked up his coat from the hanger, and while putting it on, instructed his secretary to prepare the car.
"Go to the Bai family."
He thought of Bai Yishu burying herself in company affairs these past few days, and felt both gratified and somewhat worried. His lips unconsciously tightened.
The car arrived at the Bai family's residence shortly afterward, and He Yunshen went straight upstairs to Bai Yishu's office.
The office door was ajar. He gently pushed it open and entered. He saw her still engrossed in her documents, the warm yellow light from the desk lamp making her profile appear even more gentle.
"Still watching?"
He Yun Shen stepped closer and casually picked up the document in front of her to look through it.
"Have you forgotten the time?"
Bai Yishu looked up at the sound, a hint of surprise flashing in her tired eyes.
"What brings you here?"
He Yun Shen's gaze shifted from the documents to her face, his eyes filled with a hint of helplessness.
"If they don't come soon, someone might have to live at the company."
He put the documents down, squeezed her hand, and leaned closer.
"It's time to eat."
Bai Yishu touched her stomach.
"But I'm not hungry yet."
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry."
He Yun Shen straightened up, crossed his arms, his tall figure exuding an undeniable sense of pressure, yet his voice was gentle.
"I'll look at the data tomorrow; don't ruin your health."
Seeing that Bai Yishu still wanted to argue, he reached out and picked up her bag, while holding her hand with his other hand.
"Let's go, I've made a reservation at your favorite restaurant."
Bai Yishu was pulled out of the office by him, her gaze lingering on his hand holding hers, and she secretly rejoiced.
Why are you being so proactive today?
He Yun Shen pulled her to the elevator, turned his head to look at her, and said in a teasing tone.
"I've always been the one taking the initiative with you, haven't I?"
After the elevator doors opened, he pulled Bai Yishu inside. As the elevator descended rapidly, He Yunshen suddenly pressed himself against her in the cramped space, trapping her between himself and the elevator wall.
Bai Yishu's back pressed against the cold wall. She stared at He Yunshen's face as it drew closer, her heart racing. She subconsciously glanced at the surveillance camera above her.
What are you doing?
He Yun Shen looked at her slightly panicked eyes and found them adorable, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
"Um?"
He leaned closer to her, his warm breath brushing against her ear, his voice deep and suggestive.
"I was just worried you'd fall, Yi Shu. What are you thinking?"
The elevator reached the first floor, and the doors slowly opened. He Yun Shen showed no intention of backing away, seemingly enjoying the ambiguous atmosphere of the moment.
Bai Yishu's heart was touched by his words, and her ears turned red. She quickly raised her hand to push him away.
The door opened.
He Yun Shen chuckled softly, finally straightened up, took her hand, and walked out of the elevator, his eyes full of smiles.
"Let's go, or the restaurant will close."
The driver was already waiting at the company entrance. He Yun Shen protected her head and helped her into the car, then got in himself.
He gestured for the driver to start the car, and a brief silence fell over the car. His gaze kept falling on Bai Yishu as he pondered what he was going to say later. The car drove smoothly and soon arrived at the restaurant.
"We've arrived, get off the bus."
Bai Yishu entered the private room and was immediately struck by the candles and flower petals that had already been arranged on the table. He Yunshen pulled out a chair for her to sit down, and then sat down opposite her.
He picked up the wine bottle and poured her a glass of red wine. The scarlet liquid swirled in the glass, and his eyes were filled with love as he looked at her.
After the waiter served the dishes, He Yun Shen ate a few bites and looked up at Bai Yi Shu.
"There are some things I'd like to talk to you about after you finish eating."
Bai Yishu paused in her eating, unable to contain her curiosity, and asked, "What is it?"
He Yun Shen continued cutting his steak with elegant and composed movements, and when he looked up at her, a gentle smile filled his eyes.
"No rush, let's eat first, okay?"
He continued eating, but his mind seemed elsewhere, occasionally stealing glances at Bai Yishu as he pondered his next words.
Bai Yishu took a sip of red wine, her gaze towards him filled with a hint of inquiry.
"It's rare to see you looking like you want to say something but can't."
He Yun Shen chuckled as she saw through his thoughts, put down his knife and fork, picked up a napkin and elegantly wiped his hands, his eyes becoming serious.
"This matter...is very important to me, so I want to find a suitable time."
He took a deep breath, as if making final preparations.
"Now, I think that's about right."
