After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it

On the other end of the phone, Assistant Chen's voice was extremely anxious, and he was reporting the situation at the project site at a very fast speed. A key device malfunctioned, causing a complete interruption in data collection. The technicians were doing their best to repair it, but the recovery time was still uncertain. Yan Jin's fingers turned pale as he held the phone, and his face was visibly ugly.

After hanging up the phone, she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but her tone was still trembling: "There is a problem with the project. I have to go there right away."

"What happened?" Xiang Yu put down the documents in his hand, frowned slightly, and keenly realized the seriousness of the situation.

"There was a malfunction in the equipment at the project site. Now all data collection is interrupted. Repairs will take time, but..." Yan Jin bit her lower lip and did not continue. However, the consequences were self-evident - the press conference in a month was imminent, and the sudden change undoubtedly cast a thick shadow on the project.

Xiang Yu realized the seriousness of the problem and did not ask any more questions. He immediately said, "I'll go with you."

The two drove to the project site. Along the way, the atmosphere in the car was dull and depressing. When they arrived at the site, it was already late at night, and the technicians were still repairing all night, exhausted. Yan Jin didn't have time to rest, and immediately understood the situation and organized the technical team to discuss solutions.

"What's the worst that can happen now?" she asked calmly, her eyes scanning the tired faces.

“In the worst case, we need to replace all faulty equipment and re-collect data, but this will delay the project by at least three months…” the technical director said in a heavy tone.

A three-month extension would mean that all previous efforts would be wasted, and it would also mean facing huge economic losses and reputation risks. Yan Jin took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, turned his head to look at Xiang Yu beside him, only to find that he was also thinking about something with a serious expression.

"We must find a way to shorten the time. The press conference in a month cannot be postponed." Xiang Yu said in a firm tone, leaving no room for doubt.

"But..." The technical director wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xiang Yu.

"No buts. I need you to do everything you can to shorten the time while ensuring quality. The company will fully cooperate with you." Xiang Yu's tone was strong, with the pressure of a superior.

Yan Jin frowned slightly. She understood Xiang Yu's determination, but she also knew that the technical team had tried their best and that blindly exerting pressure would only backfire.

"I think the most urgent task is to find out the cause of the failure and develop the best solution, rather than simply compressing time." Yan Jin's tone was calm, but it revealed a firmness that could not be ignored.

Their eyes met in the air, sparking a fierce spark, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere that was about to explode. Silence spread between the two, no one spoke, only the heavy breathing of each other seemed particularly clear in the silent night.

Assistant Chen looked at the two men, trembling with fear. He quietly pulled the corner of Zhou Gongguan's clothes and whispered, "Look at this... do you want to persuade him?" Zhou Gongguan also looked embarrassed. He knew his boss's temper too well. Especially at times like this, he had to go along with him.

"Should I go and persuade Mr. Xiang?" Assistant Chen asked tentatively.

"You go and persuade Mr. Yan, and I'll go and persuade Mr. Xiang. Both sides should calm down." Zhou Gongguan said, walked to Xiang Yu and whispered, "Mr. Xiang, don't worry. Mr. Yan is also doing this for the good of the project. We are all under pressure."

Xiang Yu frowned and said nothing, but Zhou Gongguan could feel that his mood had eased a little.

On the other side, Assistant Chen was also trying to calm Yan Jin's emotions: "Boss Yan, calm down. Boss Xiang is also worried and confused. We can think of another way to deal with the press conference."

"How can I not be anxious? This is not just a problem with the press conference, the progress of the entire project will be affected!" Yan Jin rubbed his brows, with a hint of fatigue in his tone, "The most important thing now is to find the root cause of the problem, rather than blaming each other and wasting time."

Assistant Chen wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by a ringing phone. On the other end of the phone, Partner Li's voice was suppressed with anger: "Boss Yan, what is going on? The project is delayed, who will bear my losses?!"

Yan Jin took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and explained: "Boss Li, don't worry, we will definitely solve the problem as soon as possible and minimize the losses..."

"As soon as possible? What do you mean by as soon as possible? Do you know how many orders my company has lost because of the delay of your project?!" Partner Li's roar almost penetrated the phone, causing Yan Jin's heart to sink little by little.

At this moment, Xiang Yu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. He walked to Yan Jin and said to the other end of the phone in a cold tone, "Boss Li, don't worry..."

Before he finished speaking, the phone in Yan Jin's hand suddenly slipped and fell to the ground, making a dull sound, which seemed to shatter her last bit of rationality. After hitting the ground, the phone screen cracked like a spider web, reflecting Yan Jin's pale face. She fell weakly on the chair, covering her face with her hands, and suppressed crying leaked out from between her fingers.

Assistant Chen had never seen Yan Jin lose his composure like this before, and was immediately panicked, looking at Xiang Yu for help. Xiang Yu shook his head slightly at him, motioning him to leave first.

There were only two of them left in the office, and it was eerily quiet. Xiang Yu didn't say anything, but just silently picked up the broken pieces of the phone on the ground and handed a tissue to Yan Jin.

Yan Jin took the tissue and wiped away her tears carelessly, choking and saying, "Am I useless? I have tried my best, but still..."

"This is not your fault." Xiang Yu's voice was low and firm. "You have done very well."

"But..." Yan Jin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xiang Yu.

"I know you are under a lot of pressure now, but you have to believe me, we can definitely solve this problem." Xiang Yu's eyes flashed with determination, "I have a plan. Although it is a bit risky, if it succeeds, it can turn the current situation around."

Yan Jin raised his head, his eyes filled with hope and doubt, "What plan?"

Xiang Yu told Yan Jin his plan in detail. The plan was bold and risky, requiring a lot of money and manpower, and the success rate was not guaranteed.

After hearing Xiang Yu's plan, Yan Jin fell silent. It's not that she hadn't thought of similar plans, but she rejected them one by one. The risk was too great, and if it failed, the consequences would be disastrous.

"I know what you're worried about." Xiang Yu seemed to see through her thoughts, "But we have no way out now, right?"

Yan Jin bit her lip, struggling fiercely in her heart. On one side was a huge risk, and on the other was the last hope. How should she choose?

"Yan Jin," Xiang Yu's voice sounded again, with a hint of pleading, "Trust me, okay?"

Yan Jin raised her head and looked at the man in front of her, her eyes filled with complicated emotions. The determination and sincerity in his eyes made her dazed for a moment.

"I……"

"I..." Yan Jin's words were stuck in her throat, her eyes were wandering, and her heart was turbulent like a raging sea. Xiang Yu's deep eyes reflected her figure, as if silently telling of his determination and trust.

"I know this sounds crazy and risky," Xiang Yu said firmly, with a determined spirit, "but this is our only hope. You once said that you are a businessman, and a businessman must know how to seize every opportunity, and try his best even if there is only a glimmer of hope."

Yan Jin's heart was shaken. Xiang Yu's words were like a flash of lightning that broke through the haze that enveloped her heart. Yes, she couldn't just give up like that! She had to believe in herself, believe in Xiang Yu, and believe that they could create a miracle.

"Okay," Yan Jin took a deep breath, his eyes gradually becoming firm, "I promise you, let's give it a try together!"

A gratified smile appeared on Xiang Yu's lips. He reached out and gently held Yan Jin's hand, "Thank you, Yan Jin."

However, fate always seems to play tricks on them. Just as they were about to implement their plan, a bigger crisis quietly approached.

"Boss Yan, this is bad!" Assistant Chen rushed into the office in a panic, his face pale, "Boss Li and the others... they want to withdraw their investment!"

Yan Jin and Xiang Yu's hearts sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to their minds.

"What's going on? Tell me in detail!" Xiang Yu asked in a deep voice, frowning.

"Boss Li and his team heard rumors from somewhere that our project had major problems and there was no hope," Assistant Chen said in a hurried tone, with a hint of tears in his voice. "They are now collectively demanding the withdrawal of investment, and... and they are also holding us liable for breach of contract..."

Yan Jin felt a black screen before his eyes, and he almost fainted. If Mr. Li and his team really withdrew their investment, all their previous efforts would be wasted, and the company would face an unprecedented crisis...

With a loud bang, the office door was pushed open. Public Relations Officer Zhou rushed in sweating profusely, holding a few newspapers in his hands. His face was livid. "Boss Xiang, Boss Yan, something terrible has happened! There are negative reports about our project all over the Internet, and the company's stock price has also begun to fall sharply..."

Before Zhou Gongguan finished speaking, Yan Jin's phone rang. She answered the call with trembling hands, and an anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Boss Yan, something happened! Our system... the system seems to have been maliciously attacked..."

Yan Jin's face turned pale in an instant, and the phone slipped weakly from his hand and fell to the ground with a dull "bang".

"How could this happen..." Yan Jin muttered to himself, his eyes empty, as if he had lost focus.

"Don't worry, we must have a way..." Xiang Yu wanted to comfort Yan Jin, but the words came to his lips but he couldn't say them. For the first time, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness, as if he was trapped in an invisible giant net and couldn't break free...

The office was dead silent, with only the clock on the wall still ticking, as if mocking their helplessness and despair...

"Wait," Yan Jin suddenly seemed to have thought of something, raised his head abruptly, and looked at Xiang Yu with burning eyes, "The system was attacked...will it be..."
