Chapter 70 Do we know each other well?

When Shen Qingze brought Xiao Qihao to their office, Xu Anyi was already packing up his things at his desk. When he saw the two of them coming in, he stood up and greeted them.

"Brother Chen, you are here. We have almost collected all the things. They said that we can just mail the others' things to them. It is not convenient to come and get them now."

Shen Qingze took Xiao Qihao to his position and responded casually,

"Okay, as long as you can handle it, you should also clean up as soon as possible and go back to rest. You have worked hard."

Xu Anyi scratched his head and replied embarrassedly,

"Oh, let's get down to business. You're in such a hurry to quit this place. Where are you going?"

Shen Qing sat down in his big recliner and breathed out comfortably.

I must take this chair home. It is more comfortable to sit on.

"I didn't go anywhere. I found a new job with a permanent position. I just moved to a new place."

Xu Anyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he expressed his congratulations from the bottom of his heart.

"Congratulations, Brother Shen! I didn't expect you to find a new job so soon."

He looked at Xiao Qihao who was standing beside him and said,

"This is"

Xiao Qihao was quite familiar with him. He stepped forward and extended his hand to show his goodwill, smiling heartily.

"My name is Xiao Qihao, and I will be Mr. Shen's new colleague. Please give me your guidance."

Xu Anyi extended his hand in response, and the two of them had a good first impression of each other.

Xiao Qihao looked at Shen Qingze's so-called office curiously, walked around the small room a few times and came back with an exclamation,

“It’s so rare to have such a small office.”

Xu Anyi asked in confusion.

“We are really small.”

Xiao Qihao interrupted with disdain,

"It's not even as big as my study room. Don't you think the lighting is bad, the layout is bad, and the space is too crowded?"

Xu Anyi stopped what he was doing, choking with sobs.

What kind of family has a study room at home... And judging from his tone, he might be a young master.

He turned his inquiring gaze to Shen Qingze again.

You were able to transfer to a workplace where a young master is working so quickly. Brother Chen, is this a legitimate workplace you are working for?

He was particularly worried about his own ideas and sad about the development of his colleagues.

Shen Qing threw a ball of paper at Xiao Qihao's head.

"Come on, I know your family is rich..."

Shen Qing waved his hand, signaling Xu Anyi not to take it too seriously. He ignored Xiao Qihao and looked around.

Xu Anyi had almost finished packing, so he said goodbye to the two of them and left first, letting them do as they pleased.

As Xu Anyi left, Xiao Qihao also began to help pack up Shen Qingze's things.

In the office, Shen Qing stood on tiptoe to take down the top file box, and the hem of his white shirt was wrinkled.

Xiao Qihao squatted beside the cardboard box to sort out the documents, his knuckles tapping on the hard-cover notebook, making a regular clicking sound.

The hum of the air conditioner outdoor unit was suddenly interrupted by a heavy knock on the door, which made the pen on the table tremble.

When Xiao Qihao stood up, he overturned the chair, and the metal legs made a harsh sound on the floor.

The moment he opened the door, Ye Xiang's face, wearing black sunglasses, was almost touching his nose. The hem of his leather windbreaker brushed past his knees. Cologne and cold air rushed into the room.

Xiao Qihao staggered back half a step, his lower back hitting the metal cabinet, causing the photo frame on top of the cabinet to shake and tilt to one side.

"You can work in such a shabby place?"

Ye Xiang took off his sunglasses, and the cold light reflected from the lenses swept across the cramped space.

"What are you doing here?!"

In the room of less than ten square meters, three old desks were placed side by side and almost took up the entire floor. Organized documents and boxes of odds and ends were piled up like a small mountain. There was also a rotary fan leaning against the corner, with a thick layer of dust on the blades.

He kicked the cardboard box lying on the ground, and his boot heel rolled over the draft papers on the ground.

"There's not even a reception sofa. It's really hard for you."

Shen Qing turned around holding the cardboard box full of things, his Adam's apple rolling as he swallowed the words that were about to come to his lips.

He watched Ye Xiang rest his elbows on the only empty tabletop, his suit sleeves slipping down to reveal his platinum watch, which formed a glaring contrast with the mottled wood grain.

Xiao Qihao stood between the two of them, with his back pressed against the filing cabinet. He could clearly hear Ye Xiang's deliberately slowed breathing being amplified in the enclosed space.

"I don't have time to play with you, Qihao, come with me"

Xiao Qihao avoided his outstretched hand.

"Are you sick? Do we know each other well?"

Ye Xiang's patience completely collapsed at this moment. His bony hands grasped Xiao Qihao's wrist like an iron clamp, and the metal cufflinks hurt his skin.

"Follow me!"

His voice was as cold as ice, and the sinister look in his eyes made the hair on the back of Shen Qingze's neck stand on end. He took three steps back unconsciously, and his lower back hit the filing cabinet heavily.

Xiao Qihao groaned, and grabbed Ye Xiang's pulse point with his backhand, trying to break free, but was staggered by the force exerted by the other party.

He was also a little angry, and raised his hand to chop at Ye Xiang's arm, but the other party dodged it quickly.

"You're quick at hiding"

Before he could recover, Ye Xiang stepped forward again, mercilessly grabbing his waving arm with one hand and his neck with the other.

Xiao Qihao gritted his teeth and exerted force, leaving three scratches on the back of Ye Xiang's palm. He then pulled his arm back and quickly stepped aside.

Seeing Ye Xiang getting furious and about to step forward to arrest him, Shen Qing quickly threw out a talisman, and an invisible barrier was placed between the two of them.

Shen Qing quickly ran to Xiao Qihao.

"Leave him alone!"

Shen Qing straightened his back, his fingertips tightly grasping the yellow talisman hidden in his sleeve, the edge of the talisman was slightly hot.

Ye Xiang shook the scratched back of his hand, and a dangerous arc appeared at the corner of his lips.

He unbuttoned his suit slowly and the moment his black tie slipped off, a ghostly aura as thick as ink exploded from his body. The documents in the corner moved without wind and swirled into a strange vortex above the three people's heads.

"Qihao, you'd better think it over carefully—"

He raised his hand and formed a seal. The black mist wrapped around his fingertips condensed into sharp claws.

"What happens when you anger me?"

Shen Qing touched the half-roll of cinnabar along the wall and quietly drew a defensive symbol on his palm.

Xiao Qihao leaned his back against his chest and could feel his violent heartbeat.

Three talismans lit up red light in the air at the same time, the temperature in the office dropped sharply, and the glass windows were covered with spider-web-like frost.

If they fought in such a narrow place, they would definitely lose the place and he would have to give up the lease to the landlord.

Shen Qing advised kindly,

"Ye Xiang, if you want to fight, find an open place to fight"

Ye Xiang waved his hands disdainfully, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"I just want to take Qihao away, why are you joining in the fun?"

Xiao Qihao took a step forward, blocking Shen Qingze behind him, and faced Ye Xiang's pressure directly.

"You can arrest me if you want, but don't involve Teacher Shen."

Ye Xiang stretched out the hand that was not scratched and gestured to Xiao Qihao,

"Be good, I won't hurt anyone"

Just when Ye Xiang thought that Xiao Qihao would take the initiative to leave with him, the other party suddenly squatted down, and several talismans with powerful auras came towards him!

As he was caught off guard, he was hit hard on the head and thrown out of the door, where he fell heavily on the concrete floor of the corridor!

When he recovered and stood up, the two people in the room had disappeared.
