Chapter 4: Sneaking out to swipe my boss's card

While waiting for the elevator, Qi Yu glanced through the plan submitted by the technical department. There was nothing wrong with the general direction. After he went back and read it carefully, he would propose some modifications to the details.

Fengshi Group mainly deals in electronic products. Its mobile phone series were launched the earliest, focusing on high-quality performance and cost-effectiveness, which is what the general public values ​​most. The combination of the two quickly captured the domestic market, and it has remained standing in the constant updates and replacements in the mobile phone market, firmly occupying the title of one of the three major mobile phone brands in China.

After achieving success in the mobile phone category, Feng's Group began to gradually develop in all directions including smart home ecosystem, automobiles, and smart AI, and has achieved quite impressive results in these areas.

The Technical Development Department is mainly responsible for the mobile phone category. Once the plan and preliminary approval are passed, the new series can be promoted.

The elevator reached the top floor. Qi Yu closed the planner and walked forward with light steps.

The top floor is where he and Feng Ji work, and near the elevator is where the secretary and his assistant work together.

At this time, most people were catching up on their sleep. Qi Yu walked over quietly and stood in front of the president's office.

He didn't need to knock when entering the office, he just pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as the door opened a crack, the sound of shuffling documents could be heard.

Qi Yu called out "Boss Feng" and just as he sat back in his seat, he heard Feng Ji say, "Zhou Jiacheng will be returning to China this Saturday."

Out of professional habit, Qi Yu immediately picked up his phone and asked, "Private Room 6 of the Jade Building, are the dishes still the same?"

Feng Ji nodded in agreement and asked, "Do you want to go with us?"

Qi Yu paused as he sent a message to the owner of the Jadeite Building to reserve a private room, then politely declined, "Boss Feng, you're meeting with friends for dinner, so I won't be going."

Feng Ji seemed to be asking casually, but when he saw that he refused, he didn't force it anymore. He lowered his head and turned his attention back to the document in his hand.

The boss stopped issuing tasks, so Qi Yu walked back to his workstation and sat down, his mind becoming more active.

His position usually requires him to be on call 24 hours a day, and it is difficult for him to completely relax and have fun even on weekends. He often gets called back by Feng Ji not long after he leaves home or in the middle of playing. Not only does he fail to have fun, but he also spoils the fun for his friends.

So instead of being nervous about going out, it's better to relax at home. Because of this, Qi Yu hasn't been out with friends for a long time.

Feng Ji's friend is returning to China this Saturday. They haven't seen each other for a long time, so they must have a lot of topics to talk about. He is completely free during this period.

Thinking of this, Qi Yu glanced at the message of successful reservation sent by the owner of the Jade Building on WeChat, and clicked on the only pinned group chat, Qi Yu's university dormitory group.

[When they gather together, they are a pile of shit; when they disperse, they are scattered all over the sky (4)]

Ignoring the rather amusing group name, I asked in the group: [Are you free this Saturday night? @all members]

Although it was lunch break, the other three people in the group still maintained the good virtue of replying immediately.

Jiang Yichuan:[1]

Sun Yizhou:[1]

Fang Kaize: [This isn't a company group, why would I deduct 1?]

Jiang Yichuan: [Oh my god, I've been using the habit of replying to 1 too many times at work. I'm free when I'm free!]

Fang Kaize: [It has transformed into... the shape of an ox or a horse]

Sun Yizhou: [I’m free too. This week is a busy week, so I don’t have to work on Saturday.]

Fang Kaize: [Boss Feng is finally willing to let you out to play?]

Qi Yu typed a reply: [Mr. Feng went out to dinner with friends on Saturday night, so I have some free time.]

Fang Kaize: [It’s so hard, where should we go to have fun?]

Sun Yizhou: [If it's just one night, let's go have dinner first, then chat and sing something.]

Sun Yizhou: [It's too exciting. I can't afford it. I've been working overtime these days and I'm exhausted. I'm afraid it's too intense and I'll die suddenly.]

Jiang Yichuan: [I second the motion]

Fang Kaize: [I think it’s fine, what do you think of Yuzai?]

Qi Yu hadn't thought about trying anything exciting, so naturally, he had no objections: "What do you want to eat? I left midway a few times before, so as compensation, I'll treat you all this time."

The other three people didn't bother to be polite with him and started discussing what to eat on Saturday.

But all they talked about were hot pot and barbecue, which were foods with a strong smell of oil. Before they could discuss the final result, Qi Yu threw a few restaurant links into the group. When they looked at them carefully, their eyes widened.

Fang Kaize: [Xiyuan Cuisine, Tiannian Xiaozhai, Yunjulou…]

Fang Kaize: [Yuzi, you sent this correctly, didn't you? These shops are really expensive.]

Jiang Yichuan: [Wow, just one meal at these restaurants would cost me a month’s salary]

Sun Yizhou: [Is this the legendary high-end restaurant with an average price of over 4,000 yuan per person?]

Jiang Yichuan: [4000+ per capita is insulting?]

Sun Yizhou: [You go to the spa]

Fang Kaize: [4,000 yuan per person is too outrageous]

Jiang Yichuan: [It’s not outrageous, it’s just that poverty limits you]

The link was sent in, but everyone's first reaction was to reject it.

Fang Kaize: [These restaurants are too expensive, let’s just eat some self-service synthetic meat at the mall.]

Sun Yizhou: [Yeah, Yuzi, this meal is going to cost a lot of money, it’s too expensive]

Jiang Yichuan: [We can just get together in the dorm, there's no need to spend so much money]

Qi Yu guessed they would say that.

Pray for encounter: [Not expensive]

Qi Yu: [Swiping my boss’s card]

Feng Ji often eats at these restaurants and often takes Qi Yu with him.

Feng Ji is a VIP of almost all high-end restaurants in Beijing. He has topped up his membership card in every restaurant and has a considerable balance.

It’s just that Feng Ji was too lazy to carry so many cards with him, so all the membership cards were kept by Qi Yu, his personal assistant.

Qi Yu remembered Feng Ji had told him that he could use these cards whenever he wanted to eat, without having to report it.

But Qi Yu had no time to eat, and it was not until now that he had the opportunity to exercise this privilege.

When they heard that it was Feng Ji's card that was being swiped, the people who had been making excuses just now suddenly changed their expressions.

Fang Kaize: [Why didn't you tell me earlier? I want the most expensive one.]

Sun Yizhou: [Yunjulou is the most expensive, eat this]

Jiang Yichuan: [I need to take more pictures and post them on WeChat Moments to show off]

Qi Yu: [Then we’ll go to Yunju Tower. Meet at the entrance at 7pm.]

In this way, the finally-arrived dinner after 503’s graduation was decided with the three roommates repeatedly saying “thank you godfather”.

…

…

Perhaps because his good friend was going back to China the next day, Feng Ji did not work overtime on Friday. He turned off his computer on time at six o'clock, and Qi Yu also left work early.

But it was obvious that compared to Feng Ji, Feng Ji's friend seemed more excited. Feng Ji's phone kept ringing all the way back to Yulong Bay. Qi Yu glanced at the chat box between Feng Ji and Zhou Jiacheng and saw that the latter's messages were constantly refreshing at a rate of two per second.

Feng Ji has many business partners, but he has very few friends with whom he can have dinner at any time. If Qi Yu is not counted, Zhou Jiacheng is the only one.

The Zhou family mainly runs the food business. Zhou Jiacheng is the youngest son of the Zhou family. Both his academic performance and his ability to manage a company are terrible. Two years ago, he was sent abroad by his family to gain experience. Because the two countries are too far apart, he rarely comes back.

Qi Yu had met this Young Master Zhou only a handful of times. He only knew that the other party loved the cooking at the Jade Tower. Every time he returned to China to meet Feng Ji, he would choose the Jade Tower, and then he would eat himself full as if he hadn't eaten for hundreds of years before going abroad again.

Qi Yu was also surprised that Feng Ji had a friend with such an eccentric personality.

Feng Ji wouldn't say he's old-fashioned, but most of the time he can be described as cold and unkind.

Zhou Jiacheng was a few years younger than him, and in front of him he looked like a pure college student who had not yet graduated.

As the chairman and CEO of Feng Group, Feng Ji is very famous, but he rarely appears in the news media. The first time Qi Yu met Feng Ji in person was at an interview meeting for students sponsored by Feng Group.

At that time, Mr. Feng was wearing a neat black suit and sitting in the center of the row of interviewers.

The man's tall and muscular figure and dark skin color made him look not like the president of a group, but more like a gangster boss in some action movies. When he had a cold face, he gave the illusion that he was not happy with you and would attack you at any time, so that people's first reaction when seeing him was not awe, but fear.

Not only does she have an outstanding temperament, but the contrast between her appearance and identity is also memorable.

Glancing at his boss who was anxiously dealing with his friend's urgent message, Qi Yu lowered his head and swiped his fingers up and down the screen, flipping through the electronic menu of Yunjulou.

It was rush hour and the traffic was stuck on the road for a long time. It took them more than 40 minutes to reach Yulong Bay after driving on and off for a distance of more than ten minutes.

Qi Yu and Feng Ji separated in the elevator and went home. Exhausted from a week's work, he locked himself in the bathroom. When he came out, he felt lazy and sleepy all over.

We are going out for dinner tomorrow. That night the dormitory group was much more lively than usual. The three of us were chatting animatedly. When Qi Yu looked at his phone, there were already 99+ messages.

Fang Kaize: [I'm so nervous going to a fancy restaurant for the first time. Do I need to wear a suit and tie?]

Sun Yizhou: [Why are you wearing a suit at our dormitory dinner?]

Fang Kaize: [Isn't this just to make me look less out of place in that high-class atmosphere?]

Jiang Yichuan: [You look out of place in a suit, okay?]

Fang Kaize: [How can I be so out of place just wearing a suit?]

Jiang Yichuan: [Don't you think you look like an insurance salesman in a suit? The staff will kick you out and yell, "Sir, we're a restaurant and we're not allowed to sell insurance!"]

Sun Yizhou: [Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha]

Fang Kaize: [... Chuanzi, I really need to teach you a lesson.]

The chat log made Qi Yu laugh. He reluctantly typed a reply: [Why are you wearing a suit in this weather? Aren’t you afraid of getting a heat stroke?]

Fang Kaize: [That’s true. So, Yuzai, what are you going to wear tomorrow?]

Qi Yu thought of his wardrobe of all black, white, and gray business suits, and the T-shirts he rarely wore after work, and replied: [Ordinary T-shirts and jeans, the kind I often wore in college. Comfort is important.]

Fang Kaize: [Yeah, then I’ll do whatever feels comfortable to me.]

Jiang Yichuan: [Finally giving up your insurance salesman uniform]

Fang Kaize: [Stand still and don't run. I'll get someone to mess with you.]

Amidst the noise and bustle, the next day arrived.

It is now 5:40 in the afternoon, and there is more than an hour left before the agreed meeting time.

There are many people going out to play on weekends. Yunju Tower is located close to the scenic area. Based on Qi Yu's understanding of Beijing, he knows that there is a high possibility of traffic jams at this time, so he plans to change his clothes and go out quickly.

Pulling open the glass cabinet in the cloakroom, Qi Yu skipped the row of business suits hanging in the front and took a black T-shirt with a letter pattern printed on it from the last row of hangers.

These clothes are what Qi Yu often wore when he was in college. They are pure cotton, oversized, and have large letter prints. They are the type of clothes that appear most frequently on university campuses.

After work, these clothes are rarely worn because the patterns are too flashy and they look unstable in the workplace.

But you don’t need to be serious when going out with your roommates.

Qi Yu changed into a T-shirt and jeans, took his cell phone and opened the door.

Zhou Jiacheng arrived in Beijing on a flight at 1:30 p.m. By this time, Feng Ji was probably already chatting with his friends in the Jade Building.

When old friends reunited, Feng Ji would never spare the attention to give him an assistant. Unless there was a surveillance camera installed at his door, it would be impossible to find out that he had sneaked out.

Qi Yu closed the door with confidence.

Not long after, the elevator arrived at his floor with a crisp "ding dong" sound.

When the elevator door closed, the elevator room fell into silence again.

Only the tiny surveillance camera in the corner silently flashed red light.
