Chapter 26 It’s time for the canary to run away
On the second day, the two greeted each other as usual, gave work reports as usual, and discussed the next plot direction as usual.
The system watched in astonishment. Is this how adults socialize? They know everything, yet they act as if they know nothing.
Hiss, humans are so terrifying.
Ji Shian: No, this is the high-quality self-discipline of workers.
Qin Yinghuai handed over the signed document. Just as Ji Shian was smugly thinking she was finally getting through today, he turned around and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Such a daily greeting, such an obvious signal.
The calmness he thought he had felt suddenly vanished, and Ji Shian looked back in shock: What about the agreement that we should go our separate ways and not interfere with each other? Why was the other party even showing signs of crossing the line?
Qin Yinghuai tilted his head: Who discussed this with you?
He said casually, "Choose a private restaurant of your choice and arrange a business dinner. I have an appointment with Mr. Lu from the Lu Group tonight."
Ji Shian was puzzled. She didn't receive a call from Lu Group.
Qin Yinghuai explained: "I took the initiative to make the appointment. Lu Li and Zheng Xiaoxiao have been in contact recently, and Zhou Xingzhi asked me to go..." to get in touch.
Ji Shian suddenly realized: "To spy on the enemy."
"Yeah, that's right." Qin Yinghuai remained calm and let her tell the joke. Ji Shian reacted and pursed his lips, a dimple flashed on his cheek, and he opened his mouth to apologize.
Qin Yinghuai rushed back before anyone else could, "You'd better not say anything like sorry."
Ji Shian: Damn, it was predicted.
He'd barely slept the previous night; his mind was completely consumed by Ji Shi'an. What would Ji Shi'an like, how would he react, why would he react in those ways, and how should he respond to Ji Shi'an's different behaviors? He was completely absorbed in the academic research he was dealing with.
He suddenly smiled as he watched the snail trying to squeeze itself into its shell. He stood up and closed the door, turning it twice and shaking the handle to make sure it was locked securely. There shouldn't be another accident like last time.
He then took the initiative to distance himself and handed over the transfer order he had written overnight.
Ji Shian reached out to take it, and the big words "Chengyue Group's S Country Subsidiary" filled his vision, which was shocking.
She was going to be exiled just as she showed her refusal?
He completely ignored the economic weight of the subsidiary in Country S to Chengyue and the three words "general manager" in his transfer position.
Qin Yinghuai touched his back teeth with the tip of his tongue. He was originally very nervous, but now he inexplicably wanted to laugh.
Ji Shian's rejection was too direct, even to the point of being avoided. He did feel a little frustrated.
But he was unwilling to accept that he didn't even have a chance to fight for the first person he fell in love with.
After thinking about it for the whole night, I considered almost every aspect of Ji Shian's possible concerns, hoping that his skills in making every possible plan would not fail at the critical moment.
"If you feel that I make you uncomfortable, this transfer order can be put into process at any time after the plot is completed.
Although Chengyue's current development focus is domestic, Country S remains a top priority, and your abilities can be well demonstrated there. You don't need to report to me too frequently. If you don't want to see me, you can ask my assistant to help you.
I'm sorry if I offended you yesterday. I'm sorry."
A tall man stood before her with his head bowed. Ji Shian didn't feel any pressure, not even the slightest aggression. Her mind was filled with 'F*ck': Did Qin Yinghuai really know her so well?
He provided her with a way out, lowered his posture, and apologized for what was not his fault.
After a series of punches, Ji Shian's heart, which had been as cold as ice, instantly turned cold as a pancake, which turned out to be quite delicious after being heated up. She licked her lips nervously, always having a premonition that the other party had not yet finished speaking.
As expected, Qin Yinghuai bent down slightly to be at eye level with her, and said word by word, "Shi'an, I like you."
I like you.
There were no gorgeous roses, no passionate heart-opening. If it had happened during normal gossips with Yan Che and the others, Ji Shian would have already put her in the scumbag category with just a few words.
But at this moment, Qin Yinghuai perfectly avoided all her current weaknesses and danced within the barely acceptable bottom line.
The usually sharp phoenix eyes were now flashing with tiny rays of light and full of smiles, joy pouring out directly, and his eyes were fixed on hers, as if he was looking at the whole world.
Ji Shian was too weak to close his eyes. Who the hell could stand this?
The system that was eating melons in my mind was stunned.
Qin Yinghuai is really good at what he does. Let's not talk about anything else, just look at his ability to handle Ji Shian's various mentalities.
Oh my god.
[He can read minds!]
The system suddenly spoke, and all the ambiguity in the room instantly dissipated. Ji Shian regained his composure, fingers tightly gripping the transfer order, pretending that the system had not sold him out, and said "Oh."
Very aloof, very cool. You can tell at first glance that he's not someone who would be overwhelmed by power or beauty.
Qin Yinghuai lowered his eyes to glance at the ground, trying hard to suppress the smile in his eyes. However, the corners of his lips began to curl up uncontrollably.
Ji Shian pointed out calmly, "You laughed."
Qin Yinghuai's smile became even brighter. He tilted his head slightly as if a little embarrassed, but his whole body was filled with joy.
"Yeah, I laughed." The steady voice trembled slightly, and a smile flowed. Even a fool could hear that the other party was very happy at the moment.
It was as if she had agreed. Ji Shian couldn't help but start to think back, did he nod accidentally? No.
Seeing her doubt, Qin Yinghuai honestly translated for his own joy: "You won't run away."
When Ji Shian did not politely decline the transfer order, Qin Yinghuai knew that his biggest worry, that Assistant Ji would disappear in the blink of an eye, would not happen.
Ji Shian, unconcerned, would simply methodically decline the successive followers, never making the slightest assumption about a way out, even if the person confessing to her was her superior. Ji Shian, at ease, was fearless.
He said he didn't care, but in fact he was frantically researching other companies' information while the system was down, hoping to find his next job, Ji Tezhu:...
Did this person peek at her search history?
The clear eyes turned into resentful ones. Qin Yinghuai suddenly found that he seemed unable to resist this kind of eyes. He showed a bit of embarrassment in his ease, and inexplicably felt a little guilty in his heart.
Ji Shian narrowed his eyes in satisfaction, and thought of something, "Hehe."
Qin Yinghuai:?
He looked at Ji Shian's brilliant smile and suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Brother Huai," Ji Shian said softly, "It's time for Canary to run away."
One second he was still feeling smug about Ji Shian not running away, and the next second he was struck by lightning: what is meant by "too much joy leads to sorrow"? He is that person.
He felt a little broken for a moment, reaching out to hold onto the door frame, his tone a little aggrieved: "Why did you run away?"
The little black room was only locked up for one day, no, it was half a day! This rubbish author is really not good enough.
Ji Shian was shocked by his shamelessness. Don't think she couldn't see that he was pretending.
The system said quietly: [But you're fooled by this.]
Shut up. Ji Shian cursed inwardly. The system had given all her cards to Qin Yinghuai.
Knowing that if he went any further, the other party would become angry and embarrassed, Qin Yinghuai decided to withdraw while he was ahead. He pretended not to hear the system's voice, put on his elegant coat with ease, and asked gently, "When are you going to run?"
Ji Shian thought about it. She and Zhou Xingzhi had agreed to meet the day after tomorrow, so she said, "Tomorrow."
System: [Don't you feel guilty about speaking so freely?]
Ji Shian is about to go berserk: [None of your business.jpg] [Manually mute the microphone.jpg]
Qin Yinghuai quickly stopped the man and said, "It's so annoying." God will strike you with lightning if you disturb someone's love affair.
Ji Shian nodded angrily. That's right. No, she didn't agree!
Dengdengdeng and Qin Yinghuai distanced themselves from each other.
The man, who had calmed down a bit, calmed down again and said calmly, "Have you found a new employer?"
Ji Shian nodded, and considering that Qin Yinghuai gave her paid leave, she let him know a little, "Let's go find Brother Ha and spend a few days enjoying life."
Qin Yinghuai, who had just finished telling the Finance Department that Assistant Ji's salary and bonus had been deducted from his name, said softly, "I think I gave him too much freedom."
Ji Shian looked at him innocently.
Qin Yinghuai looked at it for a few seconds and surrendered, "Call me if you have anything."
Ji Shian: "Okay." She thought about the dinner tonight, "Should I still go?"
Qin Yinghuai grabbed her lazy pigtail and said, "Aren't you going to protect Erha? You should be well prepared in advance. Otherwise, you will be empty-handed when the time comes."
After failing to slack off, Ji Shian bent down and said, "Huh——"
Qin Yinghuai dodged sideways: "Stop it." He couldn't stand it.
Ji Shian looked at him with a surprised look, then went to contact Lu Li's secretary.
Lu Li was a very particular person. He had very specific requirements for everything from food and clothing to daily expenses. When the secretary sent him a file that was a full gigabyte long, Ji Shian fell silent, which was inappropriate.
The secretary also knew about his boss's bad habits. Many partners were dissatisfied and scratched their heads embarrassedly, "How about I take care of it?"
It was rare to meet a worker who took the initiative to take on work. Ji Shian nodded with satisfaction without hesitation and flattered the other party.
Secretary: ...I feel like I've been tricked. No one told him that Chengyue's special assistant Ji has such a personality.
Assistant Ji, who would eat anything without any regrets, forwarded the restaurant name and time to Qin Yinghuai, and then began to deal with the remaining debris.
She took a six-month vacation, and people who heard the news came in droves to inquire about the situation. After sending away wave after wave of zombies, Ji Shian breathed a sigh of relief, vaguely sensing that another rumor was about to break out.
She shook her head to get rid of her wild thoughts, stood up and knocked on the door of the secretarial office next door.
"Is Xiao Wei here? I'll hand over to him."
"Here I am, Sister Ji~" Xiao Wei slid around Xiao Lin who was blocking the way, kicked Jian Xun's leg without changing his expression, and greeted the protagonist of their company's hottest topic with a smile on his face.
Ji Shian's radar sounded: "What are you guys talking about again?"
Xiao Wei confessed honestly, "No, we just discussed why you suddenly wanted to take such a long leave."
Ji Shian: "Oh."
Xiao Lin rubbed his hands and came over curiously, "Can you tell me, Shi'an?" The main reason was that Ji Shi'an had a happy expression after the phone call this morning, and people believed her when she said she won the lottery.
Ji Shian coughed lightly, used the rolled-up paper to poke the head that occupied a large part of his sight away, and said shamelessly, "What are you asking about, kid?"
Everyone in the room, whose average age was over 30, pointed fingers at the remarks.
Ji Shian stuffed the information into Xiao Wei's hands and turned to leave. Xiao Wei quickly grabbed him and said, "Shian, wait a minute, where's Mr. Qin's preference list?" It was the kind that every CEO's assistant had, summarizing their boss's preferences.
Ji Shian's eyes were filled with confusion. "What are you talking about, Dengxi? When did Qin Yinghuai have that thing? Shouldn't the boss's hobbies be fanciful?"
