Everyone in the conference room looked at each other in bewilderment. The translator beside him translated Yan Zixiu's words to Mr. Hawke, who immediately looked unhappy.
Hawke immediately asked in English: "Mr. Jing, what do you mean?"
Seeing that things were going to go in a direction where there was no way out, Jing Shaoci didn't even look at the others, but just said to Yan Zixiu: "You go home and wait for me first."
"No." Yan Zixiu refused very straightforwardly, and his expression looked particularly serious.
At this time, the switchboard secretary stepped forward and said: "President, do you want me to call..."
Jing Shaoci raised his hand to interrupt her. He glanced at Hawke and was about to stand up from the chair, but Yan Zixiu saw this and sat directly on his lap.
He sat down quickly and heavily, causing Jing Shaoci to groan.
He gritted his teeth and held onto Yan Zixiu's waist, but the other party suddenly took out a reddish-brown pill, then pressed his shoulder and stuffed it into his mouth.
The pill melted in his mouth, and before Jing Shaoci could taste anything, it slid down his throat.
Yan Zixiu was afraid that he would spit it out, so he covered his mouth.
Seeing Jing Shaoci's throat move up and down a few times, Yan Zixiu let go of his hand and stood up suddenly.
Jing Shaoci hadn't recovered yet. Although he had no desire in that area, it didn't mean that his organ had no feeling.
"Don't sign, trust me."
After throwing down these four words, Yan Zixiu walked out quickly in a flowing ancient costume.
Everyone in the conference room thought this farce was ridiculous. If they hadn't known that Yan Zixiu was a member of the Jing family, the security department would have rushed in long ago.
Last time it was a "key point" fire, and this time it was a fatal "chicken". Since the divorce, Jing Shaoci has always been able to easily have simple happiness.
Despite this, after he stood up from his chair, he still announced the cancellation of the cooperation with the Plot Group.
Hawke didn't have time to say anything about his decision, and Yunsheng's chief operating officer couldn't help it.
"President, it took nearly a year to push forward this cooperation project. Now you cancel it. How can we explain it to the board of directors?"
It's no wonder that the COO is anxious. After all, if this agreement is signed, Yunsheng can almost monopolize the entire semiconductor industry chain in China. How can he sit still?
"I will explain it to them in person at the next board meeting."
After saying this, Jing Shaoci turned around and apologized to the partner, and then left the meeting room directly.
Hawke, the vice president of Plot, raised his hands and repeatedly asked the reason angrily and anxiously.
But the senior executives present were also upset and confused. No one could answer his questions, so they could only try their best to appease the other party's emotions.
After returning to the president's office, Jing Shaoci's eyebrows slightly raised.
After standing in front of the French window for a while, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Yan Zixiu.
[What happened?]
Yan Zixiu sent a video after a long time. After clicking it, Jing Shaoci first saw a scene surrounded by smoke, and then several actors dressed as gods appeared in the screen and sat in a row.
Yan Zixiu: [There is a meeting in heaven. See you later.]
After reading this sentence, Jing Shaoci suddenly felt that he was like a fool for unconditionally believing in the other party.
He thought about it and decided to go to the set to find Yan Zixiu in person.
A few minutes later, Jing Shaoci walked out of the office, and his special assistant followed him and said, "President, the driver has already driven the car to the door."
"Yes."
The two walked up to the elevator, and the special assistant was about to report tomorrow's schedule, but the key panel on the elevator suddenly flashed a few times, and then a fault alarm beeped.
The special assistant immediately stepped forward and pressed the call button, and the control center immediately responded.
More than two hours later, Jing Shaoci, along with his special assistant and four maintenance personnel, were trapped in the elevator.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Jing, the elevator company is sending the chief engineer over, and the problem will be solved immediately."
Jing Shaoci stood there expressionlessly, without saying a word.
Since morning, many strange things have happened to him.
He slept alone last night, so Jing Shaoci was in a bad mood from the moment he got up.
When he was having breakfast, he just picked up the spoon, but the bowl of porridge in front of him broke into two pieces for no reason. Before going out, he went to see his brother, but the little guy started crying as soon as he saw him.
Not only were there red lights all the way to the company, but the right rear tire also burst halfway.
The multinational contract was not signed, and now he is trapped in the elevator.
Jing Shaoci has lived for twenty-five years, and he has never been as unlucky as today.
One or two things can be said to be coincidences, but when so many things are added up, it is strange.
More than half an hour later, the elevator door finally reopened.
As a result, when Jing Shaoci just raised his eyes, he found that the person standing in front of the door was Yan Zixiu.
"I'll pick you up."
From now on, unless it's something very important, he can't leave Jing Shaoci.
The special assistant behind him pursed his lips when he heard this, and inexplicably felt that his president was a bit like a kindergarten kid.
Jing Shaoci said "hmm" in a low voice, and then walked out of the elevator.
Yan Zixiu followed immediately, then stretched out his right hand and said, "Hold it."
Jing Shaoci lowered his eyes and took a look, but did not do it.
As a result, as soon as the two walked out of the company gate, heavy rain suddenly fell without warning.
Seeing this, Yan Zixiu stepped forward and held his hand regardless of whether he was willing or not.
After the two got in the car, the rain stopped inexplicably.
It was as if it was specially raining for Jing Shaoci.
After returning to the Jing family, the two went back to the bedroom to change clothes. Just as Yan Zixiu was about to explain the whole story to Jing Shaoci, Jing Fengyi knocked on the door.
"Xiaoci, come with me to the study."
Yan Zixiu thought that the other party should be talking about the contract, so he said, "Dad, I can explain that matter."
A few minutes later, the three of them sat in the study.
"You mean," Jing Fengyi's eyes were a little heavy, "someone took away Xiaoci's luck."
"Not bad." Yan Zixiu replied seriously.
Jing Shaoci glanced at him but said nothing.
"Before I take back my luck, he will be in trouble all day long, and will make mistakes in any decision he makes."
Jing Fengyi didn't expect it to be so serious, and immediately understood why Yan Zixiu broke into the company today.
The three of them were silent for a while in the depressing atmosphere, and Jing Shaoci suddenly said: "If that's the case, why didn't you go home yesterday."
Yan Zixiu nodded slightly, "It's indeed my fault. During this period, I will accompany you all day, not a moment away."
In the end, it was because that strand of spirit had not returned to the body that the evil magician made a move.
The other party wanted to use this to persecute Jing Shaoci's life, so he must protect him to the end.
Jing Shaoci was satisfied, but Jing Fengyi looked at the two with a complicated look.
Why did his own son... feel like he was being spoiled?
During lunch, Yan Zixiu deliberately placed his chair closer to Jing Shaoci so that he could use his spiritual energy to neutralize the bad luck of the other person.
Xie Wanxin felt particularly happy watching the two of them being so intimate.
In the afternoon, Yan Zixiu asked Jing Shaoci to accompany him to go shopping.
It was the familiar antique market again, and the same bargaining process.
After Yan Zixiu bought a bowl of nectar, Jing Shaoci took a deep breath and said, "Didn't you see that the boss's face turned blue just now?"
Yan Zixiu blinked and said as a matter of course, "My master said that bargaining is a competition between you and the shopkeeper to see who is more shameless. Of course, you can't give in even a little bit."
Jing Shaoci looked at him silently, and after a long while he said, "Your master is really a strange man."
When Yan Zixiu heard this, his eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously and said, "My master is of course unparalleled in elegance."
Jing Shaoci was speechless for a while, and his mood inexplicably became much worse.
Yan Zixiu put the nectar bowl and the long wooden block he had bought earlier into a cloth bag, and after carrying it, he stretched out his hand to the side and said, "Hold hands."
Jing Shaoci lowered his eyes to look at his white and slender fingers, and then covered them with his big hand.
After returning home, Yan Zixiu took out cinnabar and the four treasures of the study, then turned around and placed his right hand on Jing Shaoci's chest muscles.
After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Just sit next to me, don't leave."
After Jing Shaoci sat down, Yan Zixiu began to paint on the nectar bowl.
He spent the whole afternoon doing this.
After the painting was finished, Jing Shaoci looked at the thin sweat on his forehead and said, "Why bother so much? I can find someone to help you paint it."
Yan Zixiu shook his head slightly and said, "This map of the true shapes of the Five Mountains must be painted by me personally, so that it can be effective."
After that, he gently drew two fingers of his left hand on the tip of his right index finger, and after the blood flowed out, he tapped it on the rising sun on the wall of the bowl.
Not sure if it was an illusion, Jing Shaoci suddenly felt that the painting above seemed to be alive.
The clouds were turning, the mountains were clear, and there was a feeling of eternal sky.
But he only took a look at this strange scene, and his eyes fell on Yan Zixiu's bleeding fingertips.
He suddenly stood up and held the other's wrist, and before Yan Zixiu came to his senses, he directly dragged him out to apply medicine.
After dinner in the evening, Xie Guanxin came to find her two brothers with the baby in her arms.
The bedroom door was not closed, so as soon as she entered, she saw Yan Zixiu actually moved a small stool and sat in front of the bathroom door.
"Xiu Xiu, why are you sitting here?"
Yan Zixiu put down the block in his hand, stood up and replied, "Waiting for the shredded sweet potatoes to come out."
Xie Guanxin didn't know that Jing Shaoci's luck had been taken away, and hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did Xiaoci ask you to wait?"
Yan Zixiu neither admitted nor denied it, but just said, "He can't leave me now."
Xie Guanxin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Then, then you and Xiaoci go to bed early."
Yan Zixiu nodded and said good night to her.
After returning home, Xie Guanxin thought about it and sent a message to her son.
[Xiao Ci, don't make Xiu Xiu too tired.]
Jing Shao Ci looked at this incoherent sentence and didn't understand what his mother meant, so he could only reply with a "hmm".
After Yan Zixiu finished taking a bath, the two walked to the table together.
He took out a carving knife and began to carve a hexagram on the rectangular wooden block. Unexpectedly, Jing Shao Ci grabbed his wrist as soon as he carved a stroke.
"Your hand is injured. Carve again in two days."
Yan Zixiu didn't expect that he would take such a small wound seriously, so he said, "It's okay."
But this sentence did not make Jing Shao Ci let go, so he had to say again, "It's better to take back your luck one day earlier."
"I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"
Just like that, under Jing Shao Ci's tough attitude, the two lay down on the bed early.
"Holding hands when sleeping?"
Yan Zixiu said 'hmm', and then put his fingers into his fingers, "This way it won't loosen."
Jing Shaoci moved his fingers, but didn't pull them out.
In the middle of the night, Yan Zixiu felt a little hot for some reason, and his breathing was a little tight.
He opened his eyes in a daze, and then felt a body behind him, and the arm was forward and around his waist.
Yan Zixiu frowned slightly, then held Jing Shaoci's arm and let it go.
Unexpectedly, a few seconds later, the other party's arm came over again.
Yan Zixiu had no choice but to turn over and push Jing Shaoci to the right.
He was very sleepy, so after pushing the person away, he forgot about holding hands.
The next morning, Jing Shaoci had a cold face and didn't say a word.
Yan Zixiu looked at him and felt that something was wrong.
After washing up, the two went downstairs to eat. As a result, all three of them picked up chopsticks, but Jing Shaoci was the only one who didn't start.
"Xiao Ci, why don't you eat?" Xie Guanxin asked with concern.
"I don't have much appetite."
Xie Guanxin put down her chopsticks, looked at him and said, "Then I'll ask the chef to make you something appetizing, okay?"
"No, thank you, Mom."
After a meal, Jing Shaoci drank half a cup of vegetable juice.
After returning to the room, Yan Zixiu finally noticed something was wrong.
"Mr. Jing, is your left face swollen?"
There was a small bulge on the other's left cheek. It was not obvious when he got up in the morning, but he could see it clearly now.
As soon as the voice fell, Yan Zixiu felt that Jing Shaoci's fingers tightened.
"No."
Yan Zixiu felt something was wrong, so he took a closer look.
"It is swollen, for sure."
Jing Shaoci turned away and said in a cold tone, "Take care of yourself."
Yan Zixiu slightly closed his eyes and thought for a while, then tentatively said, "You don't have a toothache, do you?"
"Did I say..." Jing Shaoci frowned before he finished speaking.
Yan Zixiu immediately understood and patiently advised, "Mr. Jing, people should not be afraid of seeing a doctor. I will accompany you to the hospital."
"I won't go." Jing Shaoci didn't appreciate it at all.
"Then I will go and tell your mother."
More than half an hour later, the nurse came to the VIP waiting room to invite someone.
Before entering the treatment room, Yan Zixiu placed a talisman paper folded into a triangle in the palm of Jing Shaoci's hand.
"I'll wait for you outside."
Jing Shaoci's reaction was to give him a cold look, then walked away without looking back.
Less than five minutes later, Jing Shaoci strode out.
Yan Zixiu was startled, then stepped forward and asked, "Are you done?"
"Yeah."
"What did the doctor say..."
Before Yan Zixiu finished asking, Jing Shaoci suddenly quickened his pace and walked towards the elevator, striding as if he had something urgent to do.
Yan Zixiu immediately realized that something was wrong, and said, "Jing Shaoci, stop right there!"
