Chapter 11
Ji Liao's excitement lasted until late at night.
The only regret was that Wen Qiu didn't bite his neck.
The next morning, he still felt a little moved when he recalled Wen Qiu calling him "little friend".
No! Ji Liao immediately reminded himself that being tempted was the beginning of the original owner's destruction, and he must not repeat the same mistake.
He wants to be an emotionless money-saving machine!
After preparing himself mentally, Ji Liao showed off his cooking skills with great enthusiasm.
But Wen Qiu only took two bites.
Ji Liao and Wen Qiu have been together for some time. Although Wen Qiu eats elegantly, he is not so elegant that he can be full in just two bites.
Something is on my mind.
The boss was worried, and Ji Liao was very worried.
"Mr. Wen, is breakfast not to your liking?"
The worker Xiao Ji asked proactively.
"Not hungry."
Wen Qiu even put down his chopsticks.
Ji Liao's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that the plot is incomplete and Wen Qiu wants to terminate the contract again?
Ji Liao carefully observed Wen Qiu's every move, and frantically planned in his mind how to deal with it this time.
In the end, Wen Qiu said nothing and got up and went upstairs.
After a while, Wen Qiu came downstairs again in a neat suit. When he reached the door, he told Ji Liao:
"I'm busy lately and won't be back to stay. No need to wait for me."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Ji Liao:?
Overthinking?
If you can’t figure it out, just stop thinking.
Ji Liao was very open-minded and stopped thinking about it immediately.
After cleaning up, he took the initiative to send a message to Jiang Fei:
[Mr. Fei, don’t forget! ]
Money is a big deal, and he has to follow up personally.
*
Wen Qiu actually didn’t sleep well either.
Originally, he didn't care whether Ji Liao stayed or left, but since Ji Liao didn't want to leave and it could also annoy Lu Hongda, he acquiesced to Ji Liao staying.
But now the problem becomes complicated.
For Wen Qiu, being liked by others is nothing new, but the deep bond between him and Ji Liao forces him to face it.
From the last time at Menglan Hotel, when Ji Liao sacrificed himself to save Lou Yue, we can see that Ji Liao himself is not a bad person, and is even very kind.
But in the future, Ji Liao can drive his car and hit Lou Yue.
It was he who dragged Ji Liao into the abyss.
He didn't want Ji Liao to follow in his footsteps, but he couldn't respond to Ji Liao's feelings.
After much thought, I still have to terminate the contract.
But I have to use a gentle approach to avoid causing Ji Liao's backlash like last time.
However, Wen Qiu has not yet figured out what specific method to use.
Arriving at the company, Wen Qiu had just gotten off the elevator when Zhang Nan handed him a glass of iced American coffee and whispered a reminder:
"Boss Wen, Director Lu is waiting for you in the office."
"Um."
Wen Qiu walked towards the office with a cup of coffee and a normal expression.
Lu Hongda was indeed waiting for him.
And he was sitting in his seat.
Before Wen Qiu could close the door, Lu Hongda sneered and said in a sarcastic tone:
"The wings are hard!"
Wen Qiu turned a deaf ear, closed the door, and slowly drank a sip of coffee.
"What do you mean?"
Lu Hongda came here to call for justice, and he didn't even control his voice:
"Dare you hang up on me? I told you to deal with that college student, but you didn't hear me? And you even brought him to the engagement party?"
Wen Qiu walked to the window, looked out, and continued to drink coffee leisurely.
Lu Hongda finally realized something was wrong, paused, and said gloomily:
"Wen Qiu, don't forget who gave you the good life you have now."
The bitter taste of coffee filled his mouth and Wen Qiu nodded.
After Lu Hongda divorced and remarried, Wen Qiu originally lived with his grandmother.
When he was ten years old, his grandmother Alpha was in poor health, so he was sent to the Lu family again.
But his last name is Wen.
The stepmother is the mistress of the Lu family, and the younger brothers and sisters are the little masters of the Lu family.
Wen Qiu was like staying at the Lu family, with a personal driver and nanny to take care of him until he differentiated into an alpha.
He was in high school at the time.
He wanted to study abroad, but Lu Hongda asked him to stay and study and join the company to help as soon as possible.
Grandma also supported Lu Hongda's decision, so Wen Qiu started to get involved in the company's business in college and started working as soon as he graduated, with a seamless transition.
Others said that Lu Hongda treated Wen Qiu well and entrusted him with important tasks in order to train him to be his successor.
But Wen Qiu knew he was not.
He is just a money-making tool for Lu Hongda.
So he rebelled, and succeeded.
He forced Lu Hongda to step down and, as the chairman of Wen's group, annexed Lu's group, leaving Lu Hongda in disgrace.
As long as he does it again step by step, he will succeed again.
But why do these things seem so boring?
"That's it."
Wen Qiu drank the last sip of coffee.
"I quit."
He said.
"What?"
Lu Hongda originally wanted to teach Wen Qiu a lesson, but before he got to the point, his train of thought was interrupted.
Wen Qiu suddenly understood.
What good would it be if he succeeded once more? At the end of this road, no one was waiting for him.
Better to live your own life.
"I said, I quit."
He threw the empty cup into the trash can and turned his gaze to Lu Hongda.
He once thought that only by working hard could he gain freedom.
But after saying these words, I felt relieved.
Inherit the family business.
revenge.
make money.
None of them are necessary options in his life.
He can also "let go".
"Are you crazy? Do you know what you are saying? What do you want to do? Stop! Stop, do you hear me? Stop!!!"
Before Lu Hongda could figure out the situation, he saw Wen Qiu turn around and walk out of the office.
He roared for a long time, but there was no response at all.
Rebellion, Wen Qiu rebelled!
Lu Hongda was so angry that he threw the computer and documents away.
“Crash!”
“Bang!”
“Snap!”
The various shattering sounds made the office area silent.
Zhang Nan saw Wen Qiu walk out of the office and immediately followed him. When he reached the elevator, he heard a noisy sound coming from behind...
He also looked at Wen Qiu with mixed feelings.
Wen Qiu was very calm: "I will ask the HR department to reappoint you. Go back and wait for notification."
"ah?"
Zhang Nan didn't understand.
Wen Qiu walked into the elevator, smiled, and explained:
"I quit."
"ah????"
Zhang Nanru was struck by lightning.

Ji Liao didn't expect Jiang Fei to reply. After sending the message, he went out to find Chen Ziri to continue looking at houses.
"I keep looking for you every now and then. Are you annoyed?"
Ji Liao asked Chen Ziri.
Every time he went to see a house, Ji Liao would ride his scooter to the store, register, and bring Chen Ziri with him.
"Not annoying."
Chen Ziri always smiles, revealing two shallow dimples.
"It's not easy for ordinary people to buy a house. It's a big expense, so you should be cautious. I'll show you a few more, and you can pick one you like."
"Yeah." Ji Liao nodded.
Sales is all about talking, Ji Liao agrees with that.
"This apartment is reasonably priced, but the downside is that it's far from the city. But the upside is also obvious: the building is new, and the amenities will keep up..."
Chen Ziri continued to introduce the house, and Ji Liao listened attentively.
It was almost noon when Ji Liao's phone started vibrating.
【Bank of China Notice】
【Bank of China Notice】
【Bank of China Notice】
…
More than a dozen payments were deposited into Ji Liao's account one after another.
Ji Liao opened the app, clicked to check the balance, and counted it carefully.
Ten million, really ten million!
Like a dream, Ji Liao was in a daze for a moment before he finally believed that he had 10 million in savings.
Ahhhh!
Ji Liao was so happy that he was going crazy and wanted to roar.
It’s a pity that there are people around.
He quickly sent a message to Wen Qiu, telling him the "good news" and even tried to add Wen Qiu as a friend again.
After doing all this, he looked up at Chen Zili, his eyes shining, and said:
"Are you hungry? I'll treat you to a meal. If you look at a few more sets in the next few days, I'll almost have the deal."
Chen Ziri didn't know what was going on, but it was obvious that the customer had a strong intention to buy.
His smile widened. "Really? That's great! Let's go eat. I'll treat you."
Ji Liao: "My treat!"
Chen Zili: "It's my treat!"
Ji Liao: "It has to be me who treats you!"
Chen Zili: “…”
