Chapter 33
But now Anyang can no longer care about the people next door.
After he was stunned, the young man's face moved closer to the man, his dark eyes fixed on the man in front of him, but his hands moved so gently as not to hurt the man, as if he was still caressing the man gently as if to soothe his emotions.
His voice was still choked, but the words he spoke were not as pitiful.
"Brother, we were living so happily, why did you suddenly want to leave me? Why are you so curious? Why did you want to run away? We could have lived like this forever..."
The young man spoke in a pitiful tone, but there was always a lingering sense of coldness in his words.
One hand was even placed on the handsome man's face.
Now even Anyang couldn't say that Teacher Qin was a good person. He watched the young man crying while pressing Mr. Ye on the table with one hand, and he didn't even dare to move forward.
While Anyang was hesitating, the young man's breath had already hit the man's face.
The man looked at the young man with his upturned eyes, his eyelids trembling slightly, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should close them. He seemed to be frightened, and even his strength in pushing away was a little weaker.
“…Back then, it wasn’t just for this reason.”
Mr. Ye said in a low voice, seemingly explaining.
However, in Anyang's opinion, this was a sign that Mr. Ye was frightened. He didn't know where he got the courage from, but he stepped forward, grabbed the young man and tried to pull him out.
However, what came faster than Anyang's force was a loud noise.
"Bang--!"
The sound of the president's office door knocking heavily on the wall woke the man up. Just as he made a move to push him away, the young man in front of him was knocked to the ground by a huge force.
He was also pulled up by a force and then embraced.
Anyang, who had just gone up to pull people away, subconsciously stood aside. He looked at Mr. Qin, who was examining Mr. Ye with a gloomy face, and Teacher Qin, who immediately got up from the ground, and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Should he explain that Mr. Ye was forced just now, or should he tell the whole story again?
Anyang was caught in a dilemma, but fortunately he soon stopped worrying about the issue.
Not that the problem has been solved.
...but a bigger problem has arisen.
"Father, you came so quickly."
The young man stood up and spoke, tears still on his face, but the look he gave his father was unusually gloomy.
But Director Qin didn't even look back. After confirming that Mr. Ye had not suffered any loss, he directly pulled him into his arms without even glancing at him.
Instead, I began to care about Mr. Ye.
"You weren't scared, were you?"
The voice was deep and powerful, with a hint of fear.
This voice brought a hint of guilt to the handsome man's originally guilty face.
"No."
Director Qin also breathed a sigh of relief, put his arm around the handsome man's shoulders, and was about to walk out with him.
But the young man spoke again.
"Father, you haven't answered my question yet."
His eyes drooped slightly, and he said grimly: "Father, you are not spying on my brother, are you?"
After hearing this, Anyang noticed that Mr. Ye had a look of obvious doubt on his face and he stopped.
The scene fell into silence.
Anyang wanted to refute at first, but the shock just now seemed too stimulating for him - he really thought along the lines of Teacher Qin's thoughts.
He was horrified to find that this possibility did not seem to be ruled out.
At this time, Mr. Qin stopped, but he still did not look back at Qin Shi.
"First, you have to call him dad. Second, it would be a dereliction of duty for the people below not to report such a serious incident."
Mr. Qin's explanation was obviously a bit far-fetched, at least Qin Shi sneered and was ready to refute it.
Can……
The tall man turned his head and looked at Mr. Ye. His sharp eyes softened and even had a hint of sadness.
He said.
"I didn't want to ask, but..."
"Wang Xing, that time a few years ago, did you really not realize that he was pretending to be me?"
Just as President Qin said this, the secretaries and vice presidents outside the door all took a deep breath.
Xu Feng almost shouted out loud, but Brother Zhang covered his mouth tightly.
In the past, Brother Zhang would definitely not dare to do such a thing. But what time is it now? Now is the most critical time to eat melons!
If Xu Feng spoke up and the people inside discovered them and chased them away, they wouldn't be able to hear what happened next...
Brother Zhang really doesn't have the confidence to guarantee Xu Feng's personal safety under such circumstances.
However, the people inside would definitely not be able to hear the whispers. At least Brother Zhang heard the secretary next to him whispering.
"So, between Mr. Qin and Mr. Qin, who started dating Mr. Ye first?"
"I think it should be Mr. Qin. Although he pretended to be Mr. Qin to date Mr. Ye, at least he is the real person..."
Some people even made extremely twisted movements towards the air, and some even twisted their bodies into a pretzel.
"No, I can't tell anyone about this gossip. It's going to suffocate me to death..."
"As expected, rich family gossip is still delicious. My God, the legal husband, the brother-in-law, and the stepson. Does President Ye eat so well..."
"They are all tall and have long legs. With Mr. Qin's face as a backdrop, they can't be that ugly..."
As for why they were here, we have to go back ten minutes.
If a colleague were to go to Shixing's secretarial office now, he would be surprised to find that the company's top executives and secretaries, who have been famous for their rigor since the company was acquired by Qin's, are gathered in a corner with their ears stretched out three meters long.
The crowds of people are just like the subway during rush hour.
Xu Feng, who discovered that he could hear the sounds from the president's office from this direction, had been squeezed into the corner with his face pressed against the sealed glass, his face twisted like a Chihuahua that had hit a glass wall.
He wanted to break free from this environment, but unfortunately the people around him were neither Anyang nor Yuncheng. Apart from being careful not to kill anyone, most people were more interested in gossip than him.
Fortunately, for safety reasons, no one dared to stick their head out of the window.
"It's totally unpresentable." Brother Zhang complained as he tried to move himself closer to the president's office, being careful not to put too much pressure on the glass window.
In fact, according to company regulations and the sensitivity of these professionals, they should not eavesdrop on the conversation in the president's office in such an unpresentable manner. They should even leave here quickly or remind President Ye to close the window.
But that's how the herd effect works. Xu Feng was the first person to eavesdrop on the window, and then the second and third people followed suit.
At first, the secretaries hypnotized themselves, not wanting to listen and not needing to listen. Think about your salary, think about your bonus, think about your double pay for overtime work, think about your working time to go home at 9:00 pm every night, think about your work content that requires you to work overtime at the call...
——Listen! Why not listen! The workers are going to rebel today!
So a scene was formed where a bunch of people were leaning on the windows to listen to gossip.
In fact, they were still a little panicked at first, but when they heard the words coming from the president's office, their eyes widened instantly, and they instantly felt that the risk was worth it.
——The Queen is actually having an affair with the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince imitated Mr. Qin to ascend to the throne! !
Everyone was shocked as to what a twisted relationship this was.
Xu Feng was also stunned. He recalled the one or two times he had met Qin Shi before. At that time, they had already spread the news of the concert and were also preparing promotional pictures.
However, he was completely focused on Yun Cheng at that time and didn't get too close to Qin Shi at all, for fear that the CP fans would revive.
But he also talked to the young man about his recent situation, and it was at that time that he heard the news about the wedding.
Now that I think about it, I was absent-minded at that time and my complaints just went in one ear and out the other. Now that I think about it, it seems that Qin Shi really didn’t complain much about his stepfather - it was all his biological father that he was complaining about!
Xu Feng thought with his pupils trembling.
But then he thought of another question.
——If the two of them had an affair two years ago, then when did he and Qin Chou start dating???
Xu Feng was thinking, and although the secretaries beside him didn't know as much as he did, the fact that Mr. Qin's son was trying to steal his girl was enough to make them hold their breath and listen carefully.
He didn't even hear the footsteps approaching their office door.
So much so that when the vice president's voice sounded from behind them, everyone was startled.
"What are you doing?"
The secretaries subconsciously wanted to scream, but recalling the situation next door, they forced themselves to hold back in order not to alarm the other party and turned their heads to look behind them.
——Then both sides were startled by each other.
The vice president looked at the secretaries in front of him with red faces and covering their mouths without saying a word, and almost thought they were doing some breath-holding challenge.
Brother Zhang quickly stepped forward and took on the responsibility of explaining.
He also knew that this matter was too big and there were too many witnesses, so he could only keep it secret within the company, but the vice president would definitely know about it.
As for why it wasn't Xu Feng who was also not afraid of the vice president's explanation - he was still stuck in the corner and couldn't get out.
After hearing the whole story, the vice president was stunned for a moment, then he quickly opened his phone and called the number marked as Mr. Qin's assistant.
"Hello, Assistant Cui? I have an important matter to report to you—"
Before the vice president could ask the other party to find a place away from people before she spoke, she heard a steady male voice coming from the other end of the line.
He ordered Assistant Cui, "I already know what happened. Let her deal with the people at the scene."
At this time, Assistant Cui's clear voice sounded: "Okay, Chairman. Did you hear it clearly? Get ready for work, Chairman Qin will be here soon."
The latter sentence was addressed to the vice president.
The vice president was stunned for a moment, then asked cautiously: "The specific time is approximately..."
Assistant Cui on the other end of the phone said quickly: "In about a minute, no, it will take less than a minute——"
"Director Qin is here."
The vice president listened to Assistant Cui's words, but before she could think clearly and understand the meaning, she heard hurried footsteps. She immediately looked out and found that Director Qin had already walked to the front of the president's office.
——The next second, he stretched out his long legs and kicked the door of the president's office hard.
Immediately there was a loud bang.
"Bang--!"
By the time the vice president reacted, the situation was like this now.
President Qin was asking President Ye for an answer, while Qin Shi's face turned black.
"Father, don't avoid the important issues!" the young man squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
He looked much more aggrieved than his father.
But as a mature man, Mr. Qin only stared at his legal partner, and his eyes gradually became aggrieved.
The handsome man's eyes were wandering.
The next second, tears flashed in the mature man's eyes.
"——Qin Yi, listen to me, I really didn't notice that he wrapped himself up tightly when he came out to see me, leaving only his eyes exposed. And God knows what kind of hormones this child took to grow up, but he looks about the same height as you."
Anyang watched as President Ye began to explain, somewhat at a loss, after seeing that President Qin was truly sad.
President Ye even reached out and began to touch President Qin's face, as if he was wiping his tears.
"I'm sorry, I lost control of my emotions and questioned you."
Director Qin seemed to have reacted as well, he suppressed his emotions and looked at Director Ye.
But although he said sorry, his eyes still revealed a hint of vulnerability.
Because of the angle, President Ye didn't notice that President Qin was quietly blocking his view of Qin Shi.
Even the occasional fragility of a mature man in his forties directly overwhelmed Mr. Ye's rationality.
"No, I should be the one to say sorry. He was only 18 years old at the time, and I didn't know about it. Otherwise, I would never have dated Qin Shi."
The handsome man said apologetically, and he even reflected on himself.
"It's my fault too. I shouldn't have dragged things out. This is a disservice to you, Qin Shi, and the company."
Anyang stood aside with his mouth open, staring at Director Qin in a daze. After a few words, Director Ye asked him to apologize.
At the same time, Teacher Qin was blocked tightly.
The bodyguard who appeared out of nowhere held Teacher Qin firmly in place.
He even took the initiative to call Qin Chou.
"Baby, you finally pulled me off the blacklist, I——"
However, the frivolous voice on the other end of the phone was interrupted by Mr. Ye before he could finish his words.
"Qin Chou, I will hand over Qin Shi's contract to you along with his agent's contract. Remember to keep your nephew."
Mr. Ye said clearly and rationally, "I don't think you would refuse the temporary concert of the duo at the end of the year, which is such a big cake."
After saying that, Mr. Ye hung up the phone neatly, turned to look at Mr. Qin, and said with a smile: "The problem is solved."
And Mr. Qin's mouth corners rarely raised, showing the handsomeness of his face to the fullest.
In front of Anyang, President Qin put his arm around President Ye, and the two walked out together.
The bodyguards breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, but they did not let down their guard - this young master had a murderous look in his eyes.
They were afraid that this young master, who felt so broken, would actually turn into glass and stab everyone present.
But apparently they underestimated the young master's strength.
Just as the two men passed by them, the young master suddenly exerted force and immediately broke free from them.
The bodyguards were terrified, fearing that he would do something irreparable.
but……
The young man seemed to rush forward aggressively, but stopped when he reached the two men.
He just gently held the beautiful man's hand.
When he raised his head, which had been lowered, he revealed a handsome face that looked as if he was about to cry.
——The bodyguards watched as Director Qin’s face darkened.
"Brother, please don't hate me..."
President Ye and President Qin left without taking the young master with them.
Fortunately, Mr. Ye's wavering look successfully calmed the young master and prevented him from going crazy on the spot.
The young master maintained that tearful face until the elevator door closed, then he immediately switched to a gloomy look.
Everyone present had to admit that the young master was worthy of being Mr. Qin's biological son. Even in such a situation, he was still able to save the situation a little.
Of course, more people are complaining about Mr. Ye - he is too soft-hearted.
Just as they were thinking this, Qin Shi finally turned around and spoke to the bodyguard beside him.
"You know what? Your employer, my father, just said what I was going to say. I can guarantee that he knows this."
The handsome young man spoke expressionlessly, and with his pale skin, he looked like an evil ghost who was about to break into his sweetheart's home but found that his father had already got there first and gave him a talisman.
"A 40-year-old man is still imitating my speech and lying to his brother. It's disgusting."
The young man murmured.
His bodyguards did not dare to step forward to stop them. They knew very well that this was their employer's family affair and it didn't matter what their own family members did. But if these bodyguards really went forward, they would probably only face retribution later.
The bodyguards fell silent, and no one else at the scene dared to step forward.
Everyone else was sighing that the old ones are the wisest, and that Teacher Qin had never played with Mr. Qin before. However, Anyang was in a state of brain-burning, and his brain began to buffer again.
It was not until Assistant Cui dealt with everyone at the scene and made them promise not to tell anyone about the incident that Anyang realized something.
Just now, it seemed as if a silent war without the flash of swords and sabers flashed before his eyes.
What happened that day was ultimately contained within the company and did not spread out.
——Of course, the word "spread" refers to the word that has not been heard by the general public.
Everyone in the company has more or less heard about the day when Teacher Qin came to the company to poach Mr. Qin's talent, but Mr. Qin just used a little trick to get Mr. Ye to send the talent to Mr. Qin's younger brother.
Chairman Qin also helped to pay Mr. Qin's penalty for breach of contract in the name of investment, and I don't know if Mr. Qin and Chairman Qin on the other side were crazy or not, they paid it again, resulting in the money in the company's account not decreasing but increasing.
The financial director was pleased to hear this.
However, such compensation did not win Mr. Ye a good look. It was said that the two of them could not get within three meters of Mr. Ye.
It was the media reports that the Qin family might be in a power struggle, which led to the stock price fluctuations, that made Mr. Ye restrain himself a little.
The wealthy family also heard some rumors, which came from Xu Feng.
——When Xu Feng returned home that day, he was in a daze, as if Yun Cheng had run away with someone.
When the Xu family heard the whole story from Xu Feng, their first reaction was whether Xu Feng was making up a story to fool them.
But Xu Feng said with certainty that this was absolutely true. They also heard that the two people from the Qin family could not enter the house recently, so they dared to confirm that this was true.
However, the Qin family had caused such a big incident. Now that they are in a period of internal instability, if they could get a piece of the pie...
The father of the Xu family rolled his eyes and pulled the eldest brother of the Xu family over to go upstairs to discuss. Xu Feng was still in a trance and said that he didn't expect them to be such people.
It was not until Xu's mother accidentally asked where Anyang had gone that Xu Feng reacted.
——Since leaving the company that day, he seemed not to have seen Anyang.
And where did Anyang go?
Anyang is in Ye Group.
"Mr. Ye, the documents you requested, the previous customers in the Middle East said that the quality of the steel pipes you provided is really great. This time they plan to renew the order for 100 tons. And the dinner you have scheduled with Mr. Li tonight has been prepared in advance for you. There is also a charity banquet in two days..."
Anyang handed the document in his hand to Mr. Ye, and a smile appeared on his face as he talked about the future work arrangements.
After receiving the document, Mr. Ye smiled and nodded at him, praising him casually, "Anyang, you are becoming more and more skilled. It seems that I have to consider giving you a promotion."
Anyang's heart subconsciously trembled, and he felt a little nervous, but looking at Mr. Ye's encouraging smile, he still smiled and nodded in agreement.
Until he sat back at his workstation, Anyang couldn't believe that he had just boasted in front of Mr. Ye, but...
It seemed like everything was fine. He was still sitting at his workstation, and the sky hadn't fallen and the ground hadn't sunk.
Just a normal day.
That day, he left the company in a daze and went home. Even though Xu Feng didn't come back all night, he didn't realize that anything was wrong. After all, Xu Feng often did this.
It was not until the next day at work when he found other people's things piled on his workstation that Anyang remembered that Assistant Cui had told him yesterday that he had been transferred to another position and would be an assistant to Mr. Ye in the future.
Anyang was quite nervous at first, but under the guidance of Assistant Cui, he quickly adapted to the work rhythm.
His attentiveness, his gentleness, his emotional stability, these qualities that were not needed at all in the previous environment were gradually discovered.
It also helped him adapt to the job better.
After adapting, Anyang would occasionally secretly have some outrageous thoughts.
'Maybe working all your life is a good choice.'
"I feel happier if I don't go back."
'My mom hasn't called me in a while, can I just not call them?'
And an idea that seemed most outrageous to Anyang.
"It seems that my life is not much different without Xu Feng."
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Anyang shook his head violently, wondering how he could think like that.
But when he sent a message to Xu Feng and received no response, and his life went on as usual, and he still received praise from Mr. Ye and others, this idea took root and spread in his heart like a wild weed.
So much so that when Anyang saw the caller ID on his phone and it was Brother Xu Feng, his hands trembled and he hung up the phone.
When the phone rang again, Anyang answered it tremblingly. When he heard the familiar questioning voice on the other end of the phone, he subconsciously told a little lie.
"Xu, Brother Xu Feng, I just accidentally hit the hang-up button and hung up."
Xu Feng did not realize that Anyang was lying. In his opinion, Anyang would not dare to do such a thing.
So he just hummed arrogantly, and then said mercifully: "Don't do it again next time. Remember to tell me in advance next time."
Anyang hummed, and the feeling of suffocation that had arisen slowly subsided.
"It seems that you don't have to tell the whole truth to feel better."
Anyang sat at his workstation, lowered his eyes and looked at the clean computer in front of him. There was no to-do list that did not belong to him, only the work he had written down and that belonged to the work he needed to do next.
He hummed and groaned in response to what Brother Xu Feng said opposite him. He spoke humble words but his face was expressionless.
Anyang didn't understand what was going on with him. His emotions were as complicated as a tangled mess and he couldn't figure it out for a long time.
——Until Xu Feng mentioned the charity dinner two days later.
"...Yun Cheng wanted to go that day, but he didn't have an invitation. My invitation is only for me to bring one person, so you can go with your parents."
Anyang opened his mouth. He wanted to tell Xu Feng that he would go there with Mr. Ye that day, but there seemed to be something blocking his throat and he didn't say it in the end.
He listened to his own mouth moving as if he were an outsider.
"Okay, brother Xu Feng, have fun with brother Yun Cheng."
Xu Feng on the other end of the phone hung up contentedly, while Anyang on this side stared at the phone for a long time.
Anyang thought he would be sad, upset, and cry, but...
“I don’t think I’m that sad…”
It seems that he is not unable to survive, he still has to work.
Anyang stood up and ran to Mr. Ye's office while calling the custom-made suit shop.
Maybe it was the right decision to attend the charity dinner with Mr. Ye this time?
Two days later.
'I take that back.'
Anyang had a stiff smile on his face as he looked at the three men standing in front of him, each with their own unique qualities.
Just by standing there, one could feel the silent flashes of swords and sabers.
The person who triggered their swordplay was standing behind Anyang, chatting and laughing with several suppliers and customers.
Anyang looked at the three Qin family members in front of him who had been silent with sweat on his forehead, screaming silently in his heart.
"Mr. Ye, please say something!"
