Chapter 32 Zheng An and Li Wei
In the conference room on the top floor of Chengyue, the executives looked at each other in bewilderment. They dared not even breathe, anxiously awaiting the follow-up. The prepared report content was forgotten, and all they could think about was the gossip Zhou Xingzhi had revealed.
Qin Yinghuai calmed himself down and said in a serious tone, "Zhou Xingzhi, who taught you to speak like that? I don't mind it, but your vagueness will cause trouble for Shi An."
When Zhou Xingzhi heard the word "meeting", he knew he was doomed, but he got so excited that he couldn't control his mouth.
He turned around silently and slapped himself in front of Ji Shian. The sound was particularly loud. Then he covered his mouth with his hands, grinned, and bowed to apologize.
Ji Shian was frustrated by his brave yet cowardly appearance. If he got angry, he'd be like a fool. If he didn't get angry, he'd think he'd dare to do it again.
She rolled her eyes and handed the phone over. Zhou Xingzhi read the words on the screen, "Formerly Zheng An, now Li Wei."
After he finished reading it, he looked at Ji Shian with a puzzled look on his face. Ji Shian covered his face helplessly and waved his hand: Forget it, she can talk to Qin Yinghuai herself when she has time.
Only after the call was hung up did Zhou Xingzhi realize that Ji Shian wanted him to remind Qin Yinghuai to pay attention to Li Hanfeng.
He chuckled twice, "You're being a little abstract, haha."
"Bullshit!" Ji Shian couldn't help but roll his eyes again. He took out his phone and started typing.
"Hey, aren't you supposed to be unable to contact Ying Huai? Why are you still messaging him?"
Ji Shian flatly denied it: "I didn't send him a message. I was too late to hide. I was just chatting with the new neighbor I added via Fetion Shake last night."
Zhou Xingzhi opened and closed his mouth, and all his sighs finally turned into one sentence: "Then what else do I need to do?"
If he wasn't needed, he'd go back to work. After the Lunar New Year, his father kept him home for a long time, and the company had a lot of work piled up. He didn't dare take a single day off now, for fear of seeing a string of losses the next day.
Ji Shian typed as he walked around the sofa, vase, and bookshelf. "Mr. Zhou, please put it somewhere I can easily get a taxi. I'll report to you tomorrow morning."
Zhou Xingzhi watched with admiration as Ji Shian deftly dodged all obstacles. His hands kept moving, and he didn't hesitate to greet her. "Just tell the front desk your name tomorrow. Hey, do you want to use an alias?"
Ji Shian finally pulled his head up from his phone screen and said suspiciously, "Chengyue currently has no intention of developing in the entertainment industry."
She wasn't sent undercover by Qin Yinghuai, so why should she use an alias?
"You decide on the arrangements. I can be your security guard." It's quite comfortable to sit in an independent office (security booth) every day, drink tea, watch a TV series, and occasionally intercept a malicious paparazzi or illegitimate fan.
Zhou Xingzhi was at a loss for words: "Do you think it's reasonable for people to know that the former chairman's assistant is now working as a security guard for an entertainment company?"
"I dare to arrange this position for you, without waiting until the next day. I will be flooded with requests from all the big bosses that night."
Ji Shian's mind went blank for a moment. "Castrated?" He subconsciously wanted to look down, but his good sense stopped him in time. He said incomprehensibly, "That's an exaggeration, Brother Zhou."
Zhou Xingzhi's thoughts were so jumping that he couldn't understand what she was saying.
The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and decided to skip this conversation.
Zhou Xingzhi pointed at the seats and motioned for everyone to sit down. "Let's keep it secret. It would be bad if someone with ulterior motives uses it to sow discord between me and Ying Huai. By the way, did you know that Ms. Ji Dongran is coming back?"
Ji Dongran, the national goddess, is also the national husband. He can be salty, sweet, cool, and domineering. He shot to fame as a supporting role in a movie 30 years ago, and his star journey has been unstoppable ever since.
Who doesn't know this? Who doesn't recognize this? When she was young and naive, she was a goddess' wife fan who grabbed the sofa in the comment area every day and called her husband "husband".
Realizing that a pie in the sky seemed to be about to fall on him, Ji Shian immediately straightened his attitude and sat up straight, nodding solemnly at Zhou Xingzhi: "Please give me your instructions, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Xingzhi sneered, thinking that Ji Shian was nervous because he knew about the relationship between Ji Dongran and Qin Yinghuai. Although Ji Dongran's identity had been well hidden from the outside world, it was normal for Ji Shian to know about it as someone close to Qin Yinghuai.
"Relax, we're all family. Her former agent is now overwhelmed by four top-tier figures. Her former assistant also switched to economics, but when she heard she was coming back, she worked tirelessly to finish the work and insisted on coming back to help her. However, she can't always be with Ms. Ji, so——"
Ji Shian thought thoughtfully, "You want me to be her assistant?"
"Bingou~" Zhou Xingzhi parked the car next to the bus stop. "How is it? Surprised?"
He had taken every aspect into consideration.
Ji Dongran's status and position in the circle are very important. If Ji Shian works as her assistant, he will not be bullied by those who are short-sighted, and he can give an explanation to Qin Yinghuai.
Ji Dongran is Qin Yinghuai's mother. Ji Shian will continue to work for their family. There is no need for a worker to feel embarrassed about serving two masters after changing jobs. He also has an explanation to Ji Shian.
Ji Dongran had always wanted to meet Qin Yinghuai's rumored girlfriend. He had called him before to secretly inquire about her, but he was reluctant to speak up for various reasons. This arrangement could be considered as an explanation to Aunt Ji.
Hey, three birds with one stone, how come he is so smart?
Zhou Xingzhi looked at Ji Shian with a smile, and saw that the latter's eyes were shining and he nodded repeatedly, obviously looking very satisfied.
"Then it's settled. Go to the front desk tomorrow to report your name. Write your last name so it's easier to remember. I'll have my secretary pick you up then."
Ji Shian nodded with emotion, his opinion of Zhou Xingzhi instantly rising several notches. From a trouble-making, occasionally intelligent Husky, to the lively, adorable, warm, and thoughtful Mr. Zhou.
Chasing stars at public expense, what a living Bodhisattva! She can actually be an assistant to the goddess in her lifetime, my God, Ji Shian, how can you be so worthy!
Both of them were very satisfied with this. Seeing each other so straightforward, they felt much more pleasing to the eye than before. The small boat of friendship was successfully upgraded to a giant cruise ship. Ji Shian decided to unilaterally laugh off the grudge with the other party, and smiled very sweetly, "Brother Zhou, have a safe trip~"
Zhou Xingzhi waved goodbye: "See you tomorrow~"
Ji Shian took out his mobile phone, clicked on the "neighbor" he had added last night with the original avatar, and started typing.
"Brother Huai! From now on, Brother Zhou is my half-brother!"
Qin Yinghuai, who just put Zhou Xingzhi on the blacklist:?

Chengyue secretariat held its weekly gossip meeting, and all staff except Special Assistant Ji gathered to share their thoughts.
Xiao Wei, assistant to the chairman of Hyundai, brought a plate of melon seeds and spoke first: "Since Assistant Ji took leave, Chairman Qin has been checking his phone at least three times more often than before."
Everyone beat their chests and stamped their feet: Tsk tsk tsk tsk.
Secretary General Yan Che coughed lightly a few times and said: "It hasn't been officially announced yet, so everyone should keep a low profile and don't make things difficult for Special Assistant Ji and Director Qin." The emphasis in his words was obviously on the former.
Su Qi, who was picking hair for himself, looked at him meaningfully: You have already tacitly accepted that Shi An's status is higher than Mr. Qin, right?
Xiao Lin understood what was going on and covered his mouth with his hands, then burst into laughter.
Jian Xun pushed away the blindfold and said, "I wonder when Director Qin will be able to replace Bai Yueguang and take over."
Kobayashi's smile froze and he covered his heart with his hands. It was so cruel.
Xiao Wei excitedly crushed the melon seed shells in his hand. He was a staunch Huai'an Party member: "Boss Qin is invincible, Boss Qin will win!"
Rolling the hair he had picked into a ball, Su Qi mused, "But it's hard for a living person to compare to the bright moon in my memory. I vote for the Time Party."
Yan Che pushed his glasses up and said, "Always living in the past isn't good for your physical and mental health. Huai'an is still a better place to be."
Jian Xun glanced at Su Qi and hesitated for two seconds: "I...will just watch."
Xiao Wei glared at him hatefully: Isn't the salary Mr. Qin gives enough for everyone to say good things about him?
Xiao Lin scratched his head and tried to be objective: "It all depends on Ji Te's personal wishes. It's useless for us to talk here."
Everyone sighed, so immersed in the fact that my CP was not updated every day, that no one noticed that there was a small gap between the door and the door frame, and a dark shadow flashed by.
Ji Dongran, who had just finished her trip in a hurry, hesitated for a long time before finally making up her mind to come to the company to check out the situation. Along the way, she kept reminding herself not to be rude and not to offend the girl, and to pretend to know nothing about her son's relationship status to avoid embarrassing her.
Only to find out she'd been disappointed. Special Assistant Ji had recently taken nearly six months off for some business. She hadn't seen him, and since there was no point in staying any longer, she decided to head home. Who would have thought she'd stumbled across the secretariat and taken a bite of the melon?
Ji's special assistant had a lover named Bai Yueguang, who seemed to have passed away unfortunately, and his son still hadn't caught up with her.
After several rounds of punches, Ji Dongran took the elevator downstairs with a worried look on his face. His emotions were extremely complicated. How could his son, a fool who only knew how to use overtime to tie up a girl's time, compete with her? How could he, at the age of nearly 30, compete with her?
Ji Dongran felt extremely desolate. He took out his phone and complained to Qin Yucheng, "Our son is definitely like you. Ever since he started working, his temper has become as stiff as a log. He only jokes around in private and acts a bit like the mischievous kid he did when he was little. Otherwise, I would have suspected that he had become a different person inside."
Qin Yucheng racked his brains to comfort her: "Wife, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't you understand our son? He is a completely black-hearted person and will definitely not suffer any loss."
Ji Dongran chuckled at his confidence and said, "No matter how strong a person is, they are still vulnerable when it comes to emotional issues."
Qin Yucheng nodded: "The most important thing is that we can't interfere in emotional matters. Not everyone can be as sweet and happy as us, a match made in heaven at first sight..."
Ji Dongran got into the car gracefully and sat down. He raised his hand to signal the driver to go back to the old house, muttering to himself, mercilessly exposing the lies, "I don't know who it was who cried and yelled at me to look back at him, saying that as long as I look back, I will be behind you, blah blah."
Suddenly attacked by the sour words of his youth, Qin Yucheng coughed awkwardly twice and kept trying to please: "Dinner is ready, just waiting for the emperor to come back, Your Majesty, where are you?"
"Be at the door in twenty minutes and be ready to receive me, Little Orange."
When Qin Yucheng's nickname from his youth was called out, his old face turned red. He felt a little overwhelmed, and suddenly he became bolder and hung up the phone.
