章 490: Who Dares Have Something to Say About the Person I'm Protecting? (10)

As He Jichen's voice fell, he turned around to look at Ji Yi sitting beside him. 

She looked the same as when he saw her upon walking into the conference room. She still had her head down, staring at her hands like a child who did something wrong.

With her in this state, He Jichen felt waves of discomfort and a subtle ache from the bottom of his heart.

He already felt a pain worse than death over the accident from three years ago. He was really afraid of a repeat, so he racked his brains and signed her to YC just to put her in a world under his control to protect her well.

Yet under his careful watch, she still went through hardship...

The more He Jichen thought about it, the more his heart ached. He stared at her for a short while then calmed down. He bent over slightly, drew closer to her ear and whispered, "I have a meeting to lead in a while. How about you get some rest in the lounge for a bit?"
