The Domineering Boss’s Assistant Refuses The Grind

Chi Ke passed away suddenly on the day he was promoted as a director, at the age of 26. As an overworked employee tormented by his overbearing company following the ‘996’ pattern, his final tho...

Chapter 47 Chapter 47 I'm a little tight on time.

On the day Lu Lijuan and Chi Yuanfan arrived, Ji Qian and Chi Ke drove together to pick them up.

Ji Qian had a surgery in the morning, and Chi Ke had worked overtime all night, so he simply didn't want to sleep. Since he had nothing to do, he took a taxi to the hospital to wait for him to get off work.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the dean's office, he met the eyes of Leng Baiyao, who had occupied the dean's office.

Leng Baiyao smiled friendly: "Morning, Mr. Chi. Are you here to see Ji Qian?"

Chi Ke looked at him with complicated eyes, and reluctantly pulled the corners of his lips: "Yeah."

It's always awkward for two people to be in the same room without finding some topics to talk about.

They are all veterans in the business world. Usually they can always find a balance to prevent the atmosphere from becoming cold. But today the atmosphere is obviously not right. Leng Baiyao always feels that Chi Ke doesn't care much about him.

This won’t do!

Now his career and marriage all depend on Mr. Chi?

How come his attitude changed so much in just two days?

Leng Baiyao touched his chin and thought firmly: It must be because Ji Qian made him unhappy!

That kid definitely didn't listen to the advice and is sticking around and being annoying again.

Oh, it's not a worry.

As a brother, he wants to save this relationship before it even begins.

"Today is a holiday, so let's not talk about business." Leng Baiyao changed the subject abruptly, "Boss Chi, I understand that you don't like others to be too enthusiastic, but Ji Qian's personality is like that. Although it is said that two people should be vague with each other when they get along, if you ask him to change everything, he will definitely be in pain."

In fact, Leng Baiyao was a little afraid of Chi Ke, who had a serious face. He had the nerve to say these things, which showed that he really cared about his brother.

This person was seeking justice for his brother. Chi Ke didn't get angry after hearing this. Instead, his expression became much better.

He would only be angry for Ji Qian if Leng Baiyao stood on his side without caring about his brother's feelings for the sake of Su Jinmian and work.

Chi Ke's condition stabilized, so Leng Baiyao cleared his throat and continued with a bit of pride: "Of course, I must have advised him..."

"It's you." Chi Ke looked at him expressionlessly.

Leng Baiyao was stunned for a moment, then smiled secretly: "Mr. Chi, you're welcome."

Chi Ke: “…”

Chi Ke felt that he was quite remarkable.

He was able to drink juice calmly and resisted the urge to punch him. His temper was much better than before.

Fortunately, he cared about Ji Qian enough to take Ji Qian's social relationships seriously.

Considering that Leng Baiyao is doing this for Ji Qian’s good, let’s let it go this time.

He put down the juice and said calmly as possible: "I remember that Mr. Leng has never been in a relationship, right?"

Leng Baiyao's heart ached, and his expression became unnatural: "Yeah."

"Now I know why you haven't talked about it." Chi Ke slowly smiled, "You gave me good advice, Mr. Leng. Don't give me any more advice next time."

Leng Baiyao: “.”

Leng Baiyao was really confused this time, and humbly asked: "Excuse me, what went wrong?"

Chi Ke laughed: "The way you and Su Jinmian get along is not suitable for us."

Leng Baiyao answered without thinking: "Of course, we are a business--"

"You are just a business marriage without any emotional basis."

Leng Baiyao helped Ji Qian, but it was him who was betrayed. Chi Ke didn't bother with him for Ji Qian's sake, but he still couldn't help but take revenge for Qian Qian.

He emphasized the words "no emotional foundation" with particular emphasis.

Before he even finished speaking, Leng Baiyao stood up.

Judging from the pale face, he is probably broken inside.

Chi Ke added calmly: "She doesn't like you."

“…”

Silence, long silence.

These three sentences made Leng Baiyao's eyes turn black and he felt dizzy.

If he could turn back time, he would definitely not choose to come to Ji Qian this morning to discuss the venue for the engagement banquet.

"Boss Chi is really honest," Leng Boyao said, leaning on the table, enunciating each word, "It's worth learning from."

Chi Ke was not modest: "Boss Leng should really learn from this."

Leng Baiyao: “.”

Leng Baiyao narrowed his eyes: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell him?"

Chi Ke raised his eyebrows: "Did I say anything just now?"

Leng Baiyao: "..."

Why didn't I realize before that this guy's behavior had a kind of gangster-like spirit?

"You two really match the pot with the lid!"

Leng Baiyao left angrily.

When he opened the door, he bumped into Ji Qian who was running over, and punched him on the shoulder in anger.

Chi Ke: “Tsk.”

Leng Baiyao: “.”

I am redundant.

He went away even more furious.

"What's wrong with him?" Ji Qian was confused. "Like a firecracker?"

"Honest advice hurts." Chi Ke leaned lazily on the sofa, "I touched on his dishonest feelings."

Su Jinmian has no feelings for him at all now.

If we don't make some efforts, this "loveless" marriage will be beyond salvation.

"I don't even want to say anything more about his brain." Ji Qian complained with disgust.

Chi Ke drank the juice silently and thought to himself: How can you be better than him?

Two cripples are fighting for the position of general. This makeshift team is doomed.

Ji Qian: "How can a smart person like me have such a dull friend? Teacher Chi, don't you think so?"

Chi Ke: “.”

Ji Qian: “Isn’t that so?”

"Yes." Chi Ke threw the car keys to him, "Let's go, Ji Yinstein."

The flow of people in S city exploded during the May Day holiday. From skyscrapers to the vegetable market next to the ditch, everywhere you looked was filled with people.

"It's always so congested during holidays. There are just too many Chinese people." Ji Qian sighed as he looked at the elevated road that was so congested that he couldn't see the end. "What do you call this? It's like letting cattle and horses loose."

Chi Ke: “.”

"There's no need to scold ourselves." He yawned, feeling extremely sleepy.

Yesterday morning, Xu Lemian and Leng Yunting were photographed kissing in the park by paparazzi, and the news was exposed without any warning in the evening. He spent the whole night dealing with it before suppressing the hot search.

Since Leng Yunting refuses to cooperate with the disclosure, this matter can only be handled coldly.

Fortunately, the shooting angle was remote and the photo was blurry, so there was no solid evidence of "kissing", and public opinion could be directed towards the "good brothers".

But there are still many people who don't believe it, and many people on the Internet are guessing about Xu Lemian's sexual orientation.

Fortunately, Xu Lemian’s “mom fans” are very strong and they scolded back every one of them. The situation was under control before it could develop into a negative direction.

From the company's perspective, controversy can actually bring traffic, and black and red can also be red. Chi Ke's suggestion is to arrange a variety show to hype up Xu Lemian's CP. One reason is to make money by taking advantage of the popularity, and the second reason is that as long as she is in a relationship with Leng Yunting, Xu Lemian's sexual orientation will be exposed sooner or later. Since it can't be concealed, it's better to give everyone some hints and foreshadowing so that if it is really exposed in the future, it won't cause a "collapse".

Unfortunately, this suggestion was rejected by Leng Yunting as soon as it was made, and he was determined not to allow the use of marketing methods to hype up the CP with Xu Lemian.

The boss rejected my suggestions and refused to change the direction, so the matter could only remain suppressed silently, like a bomb that may explode at any time.

"You should get some sleep." Ji Qian turned off the music. "With the traffic jam, it will probably take an hour to get to the high-speed rail station."

"I can't sleep." The car horns around him were too loud and too frequent. Chi Ke couldn't fall asleep at all. He raised his hand to turn on the music again. "You really don't need me to show up later?"

Yesterday morning Ji Qian told him that since he didn't want to meet Lu Lijuan, he shouldn't force himself and should just be a hands-off boss and rule the country from behind the scenes.

Chi Ke, who didn't like to trouble others and was used to doing things himself, subconsciously said at the time: "It's a bit too much trouble for you."

Just this one sentence made Ji Qian so angry that he didn't eat for the whole day. No matter how Chi Ke tried to persuade him, it was useless. He refused to eat even if he was beaten to death. In the end, he was so hungry that he lay dead on the sofa in the office.

Chi Ke had no choice. It was the first time he had seen someone so shameless, so he could only agree.

It's just that Ji Qian can do whatever he wants here. If it were someone else, he would just starve to death.

"Okay, I knew you still don't believe me!" Ji Qian unscrewed the water bottle he had just opened, "I'll just die of thirst!"

Chi Ke: “…”

Chi Ke held his forehead with his hand: "Okay, okay, let's do as you say."

He could see that Ji Qian had really restrained himself before.

After the talk that night, the kid finally let out his true nature, causing a scene that was unique in the world.

It was a bit of a fuss, but it was better than the pitiful and wronged self I had felt before.

Ji Qian was satisfied after getting the permission: "Look, wouldn't it have been better if I had agreed earlier?"

Chi Ke sneered: "Enough is enough."

Ji Qian zipped his mouth up obediently.

After a while, he opened it again: "Chi Ke."

Chi Ke rubbed his face sleepily and said sullenly, "Hmm."

Ji Qian took a deep breath and said, "After I finish dealing with Chi Zhengbing's matter, I will tell you a shocking secret!"

Chi Ke said "Oh" and said, "I can say it now."

"It's not ceremonial enough." Ji Qian said, "I'm not kidding, this is a very important secret to me."

Chi Ke sobered up for a moment and looked at him through his fingers: "Okay, tell me when you want to talk, I'm always free."

Ji Qian couldn't help but laugh: "Chi Ke, why are you so nice?"

"It's not good for everyone." Chi Ke closed his eyes and rested, "Focus on driving, I'll take a break."

The second half was not as congested as I had imagined.

When we arrived at the place, Chi Yuanfan and his friends had just gotten off the car.

Ji Qian repeatedly emphasized: "We'll go to the mall later. After we get off the car, we'll split up. I'll take them to eat. You find a place to wait for me. I'll call you then. Be good, don't run around, don't drink cold drinks, don't do anything dangerous or impulsive, and especially don't be greedy for the cool air. Don't think I don't know that since the temperature started to rise, you've been secretly drinking cold drinks every day! No, absolutely not, do you hear me? Hmm?"

Who is better?

Who are you trying to appease?

I want you to say?

Chi Ke waved his hands impatiently: "Got it, go quickly."

"Why are you so afraid of being scolded?" Ji Qian took out a mask, leaned over and hung it on his ears, and put his hat over his face, "Hide your beauty, Teacher Chi, come on, bend your neck, your hair is pressing down on you."

Chi Ke didn't want to move at all, so he let him do what he wanted and lowered his head reluctantly to cooperate.

Ji Qian served very well, combing the hair behind his neck smoothly and neatly, but he was a little dishonest when he let go and pinched Chi Ke's slender neck.

Chi Ke raised his head, but before he could say anything, the suspect opened the door and got out of the car.

The most beautiful figure in the crowd was walking farther and farther away. He leaned against the window and looked into the distance. He raised his hand casually and rubbed the back of his neck from time to time.

Why.

I thought he would bite me directly.

It's better than I thought.

After Ji Qian's figure completely disappeared from his sight, Chi Ke took out his cell phone and replied to Li Xiuming's message from ten minutes ago.

【ByteBite:/location/】

[ByteBite: Let’s meet at this store later. Their shaved ice is delicious. ]

If Li Xiuming described it as “very delicious”, it must be very, very delicious.

Chi Ke curled his lips regretfully.

【k: I can’t eat cold food. 】

【ByteBite:/location/】

[ByteBite: Then this fusion restaurant, their foie gras is pretty good. ]

【k: OK.】

【k: Did you bring your computer? 】

【ByteBite: Yes. 】

[ByteBite: Didn’t you say you would take action next week? Why are you so anxious all of a sudden?]

There was a faint smile in Chi Ke's eyes.

【k: I suddenly realized that my time is a bit tight. 】

It seemed that he wanted to devote more time to love than expected.

It was Chi Yuanfan and Lu Lijuan’s first time taking the high-speed train and they spent a long time looking for the exit.

"No hurry, no hurry. Take your time. Tell me where you are now. Okay, I know. Go straight. Don't turn..."

Ji Qian patiently guided them out of the station. He did not get impatient even when Lu Lijuan asked repeatedly and said she had taken the wrong way. Finally, fifteen minutes later, the three of them met successfully.

"Xiao Fan, do you miss your brother?" Ji Qian handed him the Lego he just bought at the boutique with a smile, "Want to hug one?"

After not seeing each other for a long time, Chi Yuanfan was a little shy and felt embarrassed to hold his hand.

Ji Qian picked the person up with one hand and took the big cloth bag from Lu Lijuan's hand with the other hand.

He was wearing beautiful clothes. Even though Lu Lijuan didn't know much about brand names, she could tell that they were very expensive. They didn't match the suitcase at all, so she quickly reached out to stop him: "No, no, I can do it myself..."

"It's okay, Auntie. It's not heavy. Let me show you the effect of my fitness." Ji Qian blinked. "It's only two steps away. We'll be there soon."

After he said this, Lu Lijuan couldn't say that it was inappropriate for her to take this, so she could only nod and say thank you.

"You're welcome. It's my duty." Ji Qian lowered his voice and whispered to Chi Yuanfan, "Your brother is here too."

Chi Yuanfan's eyes lit up: "Brother?"

"Hush." Ji Qian said, "Brother has to do his own things later. I came to pick you up just to see you first. After dinner, I will take you to his house to see him, okay?"

Chi Yuanfan nodded heavily, leaned over to his ear and asked, "Brother Ji Qian, do you live together?"

Ji Qian almost tripped over the speed bump.

"We don't live together." Ji Qian whispered more quietly, "But we work together."

Chi Yuanfan asked again: "Then you——"

"Okay, we're here." Ji Qian quickly put the child and the luggage down and opened the car door. "Get in the car. My friend is in the front. You've met him before. He...ah, fell asleep. We have to be quiet on the way."

His cars are basically sports cars. Today, in order to pick someone up, he specially drove the Urus that Chi Ke had rejected.

Ji Qian closed the door carefully, leaned over to the passenger seat quietly, and fastened Chi Ke's seat belt.

As soon as he pulled the seat belt over, he suddenly felt his ears getting hot.

He turned his head suddenly and found that Chi Ke, who should have been asleep, raised one eyelid and blew into his ear again with a smile.

Ji Qian: “…”

Ji Qian half-closed his beautiful peach blossom eyes and mouthed: [Pretending to sleep? ]

Chi Ke raised his eyebrows slightly, rubbed his fingers secretly, stretched out his hand, and scratched his chin twice: [Are you going to expose me? ]

Ji Qian gritted his teeth imperceptibly.

The two people at the back were very reserved, looking at the scenery outside the window, and ignored the undercurrents of the two people in front.

Ji Qian angrily buckled his seat belt, and pinched his waist when the safety buckle made a "click" sound.

Chi Ke was caught off guard and felt pain. Just as he was about to groan, his lips were pressed against by two fingers.

Ji Qian showed a triumphant smile: [How could I bear to expose you? ]

Chi Ke: “…”

He has learned bad habits.
