Chapter 12 Rumor Creation Site
After listening to the man briefly introduce his miserable life, Ji Shian silently changed the man's cup of warm water.
Qin Yinghuai glanced sideways, then stared at Li Hanfeng gravely, "So Mr. Li is here to play the victim?"
If it were in the past, Li Hanfeng would definitely not have exposed his own scars, but now his illegitimate half-brother Li Liqing was called to the old mansion by the old man not long after he came back, and the pressure exerted on Li Hanfeng by all parties was increasing.
"Now, you are the only one who can help me."
Li Hanfeng closed his eyes, with a hint of hope in his vicissitudes.
Ji Shian and Qin Yinghuai looked up in surprise at the same time: Where did the other party get the confidence to ask their mortal enemy for help? It was a sign of high quality that they didn't take advantage of the chaos to step on them.
Li Hanfeng's face was filled with confidence again. He glanced between the two and said meaningfully, "After all, you two don't want to expose your relationship with each other."
After he met Qin Yinghuai and Ji Shian that day, he asked someone to investigate, but they couldn't find out who Qin Yinghuai was inviting to the banquet.
Immediately afterwards, his men brought back information that Qin Yinghuai and Ji Shian went out to eat every day after work. There were no outsiders, no business to discuss, only each other.
Tsk tsk, Li Hanfeng glanced at this and that, even a fool could see what he meant.
Ji Shian stared at him silently for two seconds, reached out to take the warm water, and replaced it with a glass of cold water with ice cubes vaguely visible in it.
Li Hanfeng looked at Qin Yinghuai and saw that he had no intention of blaming him, and his guess became more and more certain.
That day, Qin Yinghuai's cold face in front of Ji Tezhu in front of so many people must have been to cover up the true relationship between the two.
As for the reason, Li Hanfeng didn’t know, but for such an unspeakable secret, the truth must be very exciting.
The more Li Hanfeng thought about it, the more pity he felt. He sympathetically said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Qin, who is so powerful and envied by so many people, would have to hide his relationship."
Ji Shian lowered his eyes to look at the ice water on the table, wondering why she didn't add some lemon, it would be so sour.
Qin Yinghuai hesitated to speak: "You..." It's okay, just open your mouth and say it, you don't have to run around to spread rumors, right?
Seeing the man hesitant and unable to speak, Li Hanfeng was even more certain that something was wrong between them. He said proudly, "Ha, just tell me whether you agree or not."
"No matter how careful you are, and you deliberately take people to different places to eat, someone with ulterior motives will find out after a while."
Li Hanfeng, a thoughtful person, was immersed in the joy of knowing the secret of his mortal enemy. He didn't notice when Ji Shian changed the water at all, and spat it out after taking a sip.
Ji Shian silently took a half step back, and Qin Yinghuai turned his upper body to the side. Disgust was written all over the two of them.
Li Hanfeng looked up and saw this scene. He was choked by the similar postures of the two people and sneered, "Qin Yinghuai, you have come to this day."
Qin Yinghuai looked at him silently, emotions swirling in his eyes.
As if his patience had been exhausted, Li Hanfeng broke the silence again: "I have suppressed the previous news. If you don't agree, I will not care about it. Considering that the whole Yun City will know about you in a few days..."
He raised his cup and pointed at Ji Shian, "Hmm~"
Ji Shian took a deep breath and thought that the boss was really well-educated. Why didn’t he start to clear his mind? If he didn’t do it, she would do it.
Qin Yinghuai remained silent until Li Hanfeng gave him a warning, then he looked at him with confusion in his eyes: "Why do you think this will threaten me?"
He had naturally considered the possibility of this happening when he took Ji Shian out every day, and the excuse was not hard to find. He could just claim that they were investigating the catering industry. After all, Ji Shian was his special assistant, so it would be strange if he didn't follow him.
But why did Li Hanfeng feel that falling in love could threaten him?
Qin Yinghuai didn't understand and was greatly shocked.
Li Hanfeng thought he had done his best, but he didn't expect the other party to be unmoved. He chuckled and said, "Then don't regret it," and then left a grumpy back to the two of them.
Qin Yinghuai quickly averted his gaze, as if afraid of being stained by something. He looked at the half-full glass of ice water left on the table and praised, "Well done."
Ji Shian nodded reservedly.
Daily Praise (1/1)
Ji Shian was reluctant to waste the fresh sunflower seeds, so he picked them one by one and took the plate to find the omnipotent cafeteria aunt.
The aunt took a closer look with the plate in hand. Every seed was big and plump. She praised: "There are such fresh melon seeds in this season. Assistant Ji is really amazing. He can even get so many."
Ji Shian lowered his head shyly.
I thought to myself: Li Hanfeng is always useful in strange places.
All the backlog of work for today was finished, and everyone had some free time, but they couldn't leave work before the company's stipulated time, so a few people from the secretariat gathered together mysteriously for their weekly gossip meeting.
From the new relative in the administration department being pushed out by an unknown employee due to his own abilities, to the handsome new guy at the front desk dating their supervisor.
Several black heads huddled together, one whispering and the next rustling.
Secretary Xiao Wei suddenly looked up: "We forgot to call Special Assistant Shangji."
Secretary Xiao Lin's face changed. Their company did not allow for small groups. He immediately stood up and was about to knock on the door, then bumped into Ji Shian who was coming towards him with a plate of melon seeds.
"Ji, Special Assistant Ji." Secretary Kobayashi's eyes widened.
What makes us happiest when gossiping? Of course, watermelon in summer and melon seeds in winter.
Xiao Lin reached out to get the fruit, but Ji Shian dodged around him and shook his head, "It's for Director Qin."
Xiao Lin suddenly had an idea and thought of the large bunch of sunflowers. "Was it sent by Mr. Li from Feisheng?"
Ji Shian nodded.
Kobayashi put down his hand regretfully, turned around and looked at her reluctantly.
Ji Shian thought it was funny, so he grabbed a handful and put it in his pocket.
Xiao Lin chuckled and said, "Sister Ji, I'm going back to chat about gossip."
Ji Shian understood immediately that it was time for the weekly meeting again. He waved his hand to disperse everyone and decided to speed up and join in the fun after he was done.
Xiao Lin happily returned to the office with the small meal that Ji Shian had prepared. Suddenly, someone grabbed his neck from behind. He quickly patted the arm that was strangling his neck and said, "Brother Wei, let me go."
Xiao Wei pulled the person to his seat and asked, "What are you thinking about when you smile so charmingly?"
He glanced behind him: "Where's Assistant Ji? Why are you back alone?"
Xiao Lin: "Sister Ji is busy, let's talk about our own things."
Su Qi looked at Xiao Lin's honest and old square face with a puzzled look, "How did you manage to say that?"
Ji Shian is much younger than them, so everyone usually calls him by his name.
Xiao Lin chuckled and took out some melon seeds: "It's all thanks to Sister Ji's loving care in feeding them."
Thirty-one-year-old Xiao Wei quickly snatched half of it and stuffed it into his mouth, slurping it up. "Thank you, Sister Ji."
Yan Che was curious: "Why don't you bring more back?"
Xiao Lin waved his hand: "Sister Ji is going to give it to Director Qin." He pointed to the melon seeds in his hand, "This is a trophy."
Everyone fell silent, thinking of the wonderful performance in the lobby on the first floor at noon.
Jian Xun, who was too sleepy to open his eyes, said: "You guys are right, Shi An is quite capable."
At least among the crowd of people who were sucking their fingers in shock and saying "Oh my God, is this true?", Ji Shian's brain was the fastest and he dared to talk about anything.
Su Qi nodded and praised her little sister: "Of course, it is said that President Qin took a liking to Shi An at first sight because she faced a siege of ten people alone and not only broke through the siege, but also humiliated the other party."
Xiao Wei paused in his melon seed cracking. "The story goes that Shi An accidentally splashed Director Qin with rainwater one rainy night. Director Qin felt sorry for her because of her shabby clothes, so he took her in and raised her as his sister. He unexpectedly discovered that she was very smart and intelligent, so he nurtured her into his own sharp sword."
Xiao Lin speechlessly slapped Xiao Wei's hand away from stealing the melon seeds. "Your story spans three platforms at once, from Tomato to Green River to the end. That's ridiculous."
Yan Che listened to the various versions of the encounter between the chairman and the special assistant with a smile. He liked it and loved it, so he wanted more.
Jian Xun squinted his eyes and spoke with a voice filled with perpetual sleepiness, "What you heard is wrong. Ji Shian submitted her resume and passed the interview process to get in. I was her interviewer at the time."
Everyone turned their heads. What happened next?
Jian Xun leaned forward and lowered his voice: "Actually, Assistant Ji has known Director Qin for a long time."
Everyone: Childhood sweethearts!
Everyone was excited: "And then what?"
Jian Xun: "Ji Shian was sponsored by Cheng Yue to grow up and repay his kindness. Director Qin admired her personal abilities and kept her by his side."
The crowd booed: That’s it?
Jian Xun looked at Zhang Ren who was about to kick him out of the group chat, thought for a moment and added, "You all know Shi An's life story."
Everyone frowned and stopped him when they heard what he said: "Forget it, forget it, don't say anymore." They didn't talk about topics involving other people's privacy and sad things, especially friends they saw every day.
Jian Xun rubbed his hair irritably: "Tsk, am I that kind of person? That's what Shi An said himself."
Ji Shian's expression and demeanor at that time emerged in his mind. "She probably also hopes that more people can remember that person with her."
The eyes of those who had been refusing to listen lit up: "Remember who?"
Jian Xun: "Shi An's white moonlight."
Everyone: Wow.
Jian Xun: "It's a pity that he died young due to poor health."
Everyone: Hiss.
Jian Xun: "Shi An never forgets me and goes to pay his respects every year."
Everyone: Snap. Heartbroken.
Yan Che stopped smiling. The candy jar suddenly shattered, leaving shards of glass scattered all over the floor. He asked anxiously, "Does Director Qin know about this?"
Jian Xun was stunned: "Uh..." You know.
Yan Che felt a pang in his heart. Didn’t Director Qin know that he was being abused?
After hearing Jian Xun finish his words, Yan Che breathed a sigh of relief: It shouldn't be some sad story where I use you as a substitute or something like that.
"But you were all lazy during the interview, and I was the only interviewer who made the final decision. I didn't tell anyone else, so maybe Director Qin didn't know about it?"
Yan Che's heart, which had just relaxed, was lifted up again and trembled like a bungee jump. He looked at Jian Xun and hesitated to speak: Can you finish what you are saying in one breath?
Jian Xun: "There was light in Shi An's eyes at that time. Looking at her, she didn't feel that Bai Yueguang was an unmentionable scar. Instead, she was more like the sunshine that fell on the tip of the heart and melted on the tip of the tongue."
Everyone was moved: "We will remember him." The bright moon in the sky that Ji Shian always thought of and could not forget.
At this time, Ji Shian was standing in front of Qin Yinghuai's desk and discussing with others how to proceed. He was checking for omissions yesterday and found a scene of a man and a woman pulling each other.
She had no idea that her clean emotional history had been painted with heavy colors by several colleagues in the secretariat in just a few minutes.
