Chapter 109
When the assistant returned to his workstation, his expression was as if he was lost in thought.
Even his subordinates thought that he might have discovered that the load-bearing wall was being built downstairs in the large apartment he had just bought.
Otherwise, how could Assistant Jiang, who is usually calm and composed, have such a desperate expression?
In fact, for Assistant Jiang, the horror of this matter is on the same level as destroying the load-bearing wall downstairs.
The latter would make his money go down the drain, and the former would make his current job with a monthly salary of 100,000 yuan go down the drain.
Assistant Jiang didn't dare to recall how he escaped from that floor. He only knew that when he came to his senses, he had reappeared in the elevator.
And in his memory, the last scene was the scene of Mr. Pei's beautiful model face flushed, burying his face deeply in the young man's shoulder and taking a deep breath.
Assistant Jiang could only say that he didn't make such a weird noise even when petting a cat.
Mr. Pei was not in a much better mood. While he was happy, his eyes looked as if he wanted to devour the young man.
But this is not the most crucial point.
But did the handsome young man notice this?
Then Assistant Jiang felt that the answer was obvious.
Although President Pei introduced the young man as a brother, but...
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would never do this!
Assistant Jiang thought with despair in his eyes.
However, after a little thought, Assistant Jiang realized that despair was yet to come.
Although their group is involved in many areas, its main business is still the Internet.
Whether it is the app or mobile phone they launched, or some other systems, there may be other people in charge of the project, but the main force is definitely Mr. Pei.
——With Mr. Pei’s technical ability, he doubted that he could take down the Pentagon.
But while God gifted Mr. Pei with extremely formidable technical abilities, he also took away his interpersonal skills.
It’s not that Mr. Pei is autistic or something, but that Mr. Pei is completely immersed in his own world and has been reducing all his social activities.
Except for the technical department and the end-of-year annual meeting where he was pulled up by his uncle to speak on the stage, he completely retreated to his office which was equipped with a huge TV and various game consoles.
However, it seemed as if God had turned around and given Mr. Pei's interpersonal skills, which had been taken away, to Mr. Pei, so that 50% of their company's business was brought in by Mr. Pei.
It’s not that the sales department didn’t work hard, but President Pei was just too aggressive. His connections were all over the world, and even gifts had to be given in a formal way.
With these two pillars of the group, who are also uncle and nephew, the top management of the group is as stable as a rock, and the old guys on the board of directors dare not say a word.
But if the two of them were to fall out because of that young man...
"Bang!"
Assistant Jiang suddenly fell forward, and his head made a sound of close contact with the table.
The colleagues around him looked at him curiously, but no one dared to ask. They could only look at Assistant Jiang in shock.
Fortunately, Assistant Jiang quickly looked up from his workstation as if nothing had happened and began to organize the documents.
But he was very determined in his heart.
——We must not let them find out!
However, just when Assistant Jiang was about to keep this matter to himself, Assistant Liu, who was affiliated with General Manager Xiao Pei, sent him a message.
"...Brother Jiang, I just saw you at the office door. I just passed by President Pei's office."
Assistant Jiang once again showed a look of despair.
“…Did you see it?”
Assistant Liu on the opposite side was silent for a long time before speaking.
"You saw it too?"
Assistant Jiang wanted to bang his head on the table again, but he suppressed his impulse and sent a message to Assistant Liu.
"So how many people know about this now?"
Assistant Liu chose to send him a location directly and made an appointment at the restaurant they often went to.
When Assistant Jiang arrived at the scene, he slapped himself on the forehead.
——Because his assistant team and Assistant Liu’s assistant team were all present at the scene.
After Assistant Jiang sat down, he couldn't help but mutter.
"Mr. Ye, you are too careless."
"I was wondering why the two heart-shaped fried eggs I saw that day were similar in size and style. I thought they had bought the same mold..."
Assistant Liu sat in the chair with a look of despair on his face.
The other assistants were not much better than him. There was a hint of death on each of their faces, as if the end of the world had come early, which was indeed the case for them.
And the circumstances under which they found out about this were quite dramatic.
At that time, Assistant Liu was holding a meeting with the camera on. Since it was not a big deal, there was no need to ask everyone to go to the meeting room.
But it was this action that made them aware of this fatal matter.
At first, it was just an assistant who could take a picture of the president's elevator while sitting at his workstation. In the background, there was a handsome young man carrying a gift box and getting on the president's elevator.
Everyone's eyes began to turn gossipy, and Assistant Liu naturally turned a blind eye. Then everyone began to discuss heatedly what was going on and who this young man was looking for.
An assistant who had seen this young man before said that he must have gone to see Mr. Pei, because the last time he saw this young man, he was next to Mr. Pei and had been flirting with him for quite a while.
At this moment, the colleague who was standing in the corridor of President Pei's office and whose background could be seen was still eating watermelon, saw the young man enter President Pei's office.
There was silence in the meeting group at that moment, and finally the colleague from before came up and said that he might have seen it wrong.
Now the meeting group became lively again, and Assistant Liu quickly warned the assistants to turn off all the cameras, leaving only his own.
Fifteen minutes later, Assistant Liu was about to end the meeting, but...
"...I didn't expect that young man to so easily open Mr. Pei's office door from behind me in front of everyone, and you, Brother Jiang, also appeared on the camera."
Assistant Liu said with an extremely desperate expression.
"The key point is that he opened the door, but why didn't Little Boss Pei pull the person in? Instead, he just hugged the person outside in front of all of us! And that amazing guy wasn't even afraid of Big Boss Pei finding out and actually hugged him for quite a while before going in."
"I didn't even dare to breathe at that time, for fear that the sound of breathing would startle those two."
Another assistant said weakly, and his colleague nodded with a look of misery on his face.
"When I just came out, I saw Mr. Pei wearing that watch. I even complimented him, saying that the dial was quite unique and looked very noble."
The fact that the assistants can sit here shows that they have enough brains.
There may be some stupid bosses, but none of the senior assistants who have become the personal assistants of Mr. Pei or Mr. Pei, and who will be sent out to branch companies to become presidents or senior executives after working for a few years, are stupid.
Except for those with connections.
Everyone immediately realized that if this wasn't handled properly, it would definitely cause a fight between the two pillars of the group, leading to a split. Texting easily leaves traces of work, so it's better to brainstorm on the spot, leaving no traces afterwards.
So, today's dinner party came about.
For the sake of their own jobs, the assistants, after becoming desperate, immediately used all their brains to start thinking about what to do about this matter.
"...How about reminding Boss Pei? After all, they've been fooled by that person for so long. If they find out the truth, it might get even worse. Why not just detonate this bomb right now, before they both become deeply attached to him?"
This assistant is more inclined to cure the problem at its root. If this matter is detonated in advance, they won't have to worry in the company.
However, this idea was opposed by Assistant Jiang.
"That method won't work. Mr. Pei is in the throes of love with that girl right now, and she just gave him a watch that's not available on the market, and he even designed the system himself. If you tell him you're cheating on her at this point, it's likely to make Mr. Pei lose control of his emotions."
Assistant Liu also nodded, agreeing with Assistant Jiang's words.
But the assistant still didn't give up. In his opinion, the situation should be solved fundamentally.
"But what if that watch isn't a system he wrote himself? We can start with that watch!"
"He definitely wrote that system himself."
Assistant Liu sighed and said.
"——This was personally certified by Mr. Pei."
The assistant now took back what he had said and stopped talking.
After all, considering how serious Mr. Pei is about his career, he would never stop pointing out the other person's mistakes just because they are having an ambiguous relationship. On the contrary, he would urge the other person to improve his skills every day with the idea of helping the other person go further in his career.
"Why don't we hint at this to the two Presidents Pei and let them discover it themselves? If they verify it themselves, they'll definitely believe it. After all, that young man is so brazen, there's no need to worry that they won't discover it."
At this time, another assistant whispered.
Assistant Jiang rubbed his brows in a headache and said, "Are you sure your indirect hints won't get through to them? Besides, even though they're in a relationship, there's only a thin layer of window paper between them. If you puncture the illusion created by these young people at this time, aren't you afraid of being resentful by them?"
The assistant's expression was a little confused, and he said in disbelief.
"How could I possibly be hated by God? I just said it casually, it shouldn't be... right."
When the assistant said this, he seemed to remember something and his expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Assistant Jiang said bluntly
"When Mu Bai was quarreling with you, it was the same situation as now. Do you dare to bet that Mr. Pei and his wife will not become like Mu Bai when they fall in love?"
Recalling that person with connections, because he kindly reminded him that he saw Gu Yan in a restaurant, he rushed over angrily to catch the adultery and made a scene in the restaurant. Later he found out that the person was just Gu Yan's senior schoolmate. However, in the eyes of experienced people in the workplace, this so-called senior schoolmate was probably just in the ambiguous stage of the relationship.
But Mu Bai was easy to coax. After he made a big fuss and embarrassed his senior sister, Gu Yan coaxed him back to normal with just a few words.
After being coaxed back, Mu Bai came back and bothered his assistant, saying that if he hadn't been so talkative, he wouldn't have gotten into such a fight with Gu Yan.
Even Gu Yan wanted to have his bonus deducted. Fortunately, President Pei saw through the situation and did not punish him. However, this also left a deep psychological shadow on the assistant. He never dared to take a step in front of Mu Bai again, for fear that this guy would cause him trouble again.
“…”
The assistant fell silent.
With Mu Bai as a living example, the other assistants present were unable to offer any constructive suggestions. In the end, they could only decide to pretend they didn't know about the matter and wait and see when the two would start a fight on their own.
——Of course, it would be best if we could conceal it without leaving any trace.
After all, they really don't want the group to split!
After making this decision, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly relaxed, and everyone began to discuss the relationship between Mr. Ye and the two Mr. Peis while eating.
——But the main topic is still about Mr. Ye’s superb skills.
"...Mr. Ye is truly amazing. He's even managed to hook Mr. Pei into a black bass. I didn't even know Mr. Pei had that kind of experience, but he's so impressed by it that he even created a digital watch to show everyone."
One assistant said, and the other assistant nodded quickly.
"That's right. Mr. Pei spent the entire morning clinging to that young man like he was ravenous for skin. That young man is quite impressive. Mr. Pei's face and eyes were so moist as he stared at him, yet he was still able to smile and speak to him in a friendly tone. No wonder he was like that."
While some people sighed, others felt that this was purely the behavior of a scumbag.
"--If you could learn this method from him, and get men of the level of Big Boss Pei and Little Boss Pei, would you be happy to become the King of the Sea?"
Assistant Jiang asked a soul-searching question.
And the assistant who just spoke: "..."
"Actually, that young man is quite nice. He cares about both Mr. Pei. Last time, he came to deliver food, and this time he came to deliver a watch. He wrote the system himself. Although XP is a bit hard to accept, his thoughtfulness is better than Gu Yan's."
Another assistant said weakly.
"—He didn't even use this relationship to get people into the company."
All the assistants present subconsciously placed Gu Yan and the handsome young man on the comparison table.
"...Then I'll choose Mr. Ye."
"A-choo!"
Gu Yan sneezed loudly and rubbed his nose, wondering who was thinking about him behind his back.
But he immediately put the matter behind him and watched Ye Wangxing put the watch on the wrist of the man who had just returned from abroad with an indescribable look on his face.
He was now sitting in the coffee shop waiting for Mu Bai, but he didn't expect to see Ye Wangxing giving a watch to a man.
The case of this watch is even custom-made, and anyone who knows watches would find it hard not to like it.
However, Gu Yan always felt that the case of this watch was different from the one he had seen on Ye Wangxing's workbench before, but he didn't care and just continued to look at it.
Sheng Jiu was naturally the same. He widened his peach blossom eyes and looked at the young man with a flushed face as he came very close to put the watch on him.
After the young man explained to him the purpose and functions of the watch, his face turned even redder. In Gu Yan's opinion, the two of them were about to hug and kiss each other in the next second.
but……
Gu Yan found that this man had forcibly suppressed the impulse, and just hugged Ye Wangxing tightly like a good brother and then let go.
"...Wang Xing, I like this gift very much, I really like it."
Sheng Jiu's peach blossom eyes looked straight at the young man in front of him, with a thousand thoughts in his eyes, which finally turned into a pool of tenderness.
"I didn't expect you to give me such a big surprise. I was right to connect you with the manufacturer over there."
Sheng Jiu said softly.
The young man sitting opposite him was not shy at all. He accepted Sheng Jiu's praise with a little pride, and said with his chin raised.
"Of course I'm your financial sponsor, how could I not know your preferences? The manufacturer even praised your good taste."
The handsome young man held up his chin and said with a smile on his face, while Sheng Jiu, who was stared at by the handsome young man, blushed even more.
Looking at the watch Ye Wangxing made himself, and coaxing Sheng Jiu into a fetus with just a few words, Gu Yan said: "..."
For the first time, he wanted to learn from Ye Wangxing's ideas.
'If I could be as eloquent as Ye Wangxing, Mu Bai wouldn't break up with me so often.' Gu Yan couldn't help but think.
By the time he came back to his senses from his fantasy of getting married to Mu Bai after graduation, Ye Wangxing had already left.
Only the man named Sheng Jiu was left sitting there, looking at the watch on his wrist for a long time without coming back to his senses.
And he was still mumbling something.
Gu Yan couldn't help but prick up his ears. After he couldn't hear anything online, he pretended to look for someone at the door, walked around there and came back.
And this was enough for him to hear clearly what Sheng Jiu was saying.
"...I can't agree to it now. He's too naive and can't handle it."
Sheng Jiu's eyes were fixed on the void and he muttered.
"Be patient a little longer, and don't let Wangxing suffer with you."
Gu Yan heard Sheng Jiu's words: "..."
Gu Yan didn't know how to complain about the previous sentence for a moment, but his uncle, cousin and the young man he saw at the door of the training center flashed through his mind.
As for the latter sentence...
Gu Yan thought of the large flat he had seen before, and his expression became a little distorted.
——Brother, you call this a hard time?
Gu Yan finished his date with Mu Bai with a head full of doubts, and regardless of the other party's angry expression, he took the family car back to the old house.
Today is a family dinner, not a holiday, but his mother, Ms. Pei, wants to meet her younger brother and nephew.
So when Gu Yan returned home, he saw his mother sitting at the piano, preparing to play a piece of music that she would perform at the family dinner.
Seeing Gu Yan coming back, Ms. Pei smiled naturally and pulled her son to sit down and began to ask about his life at school - and the incident where he and his little boyfriend jumped into the lake.
"...As an art student, it's normal for you to be a little sensitive. You have to give him enough sense of security, but of course, don't go too far. You're my son, so you have to make decisions when you need to. Don't let others mess with you."
Ms. Pei smiled on her face, but she was a little cautious in her heart. After all, God knows whether she almost rushed to the school when she received a call from the counselor informing her that her son was punished or because he and his boyfriend jumped into the lake together at 5 o'clock in the morning.
Later, it was her husband who persuaded her.
"Gu Yan has been stubborn since he was little. The more you tell him not to do something, the more he'll do it. If you rush over and ask him to break up with Mu Bai right now, do you believe he'll go get a marriage certificate from Mu Bai right then and there? Anyway, he can register with his ID card now."
Mr. Gu hugged his wife and said earnestly, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If you control them too much, it will only add a lot of hardships to them and make their relationship stronger than gold. On the contrary, if you don't care about them and they encounter even the smallest problems, they might even fall apart."
This is why Ms. Pei is now talking to Gu Yan in such a natural manner.
However, Ms. Pei's words did reveal some of it. It wasn't much, but it was enough to touch Gu Yan's reverse scale.
"Mom, don't get me wrong. Mu Bai is actually a very nice person. He just has a little temper, but it's not serious. He's also very simple-minded. He even sends me things. Although they are just some snacks and worthless little things, it also shows his sincerity."
Gu Yan said very seriously.
"Just like you said, Mom, I just need to give him enough sense of security. I will never break up with him. I have decided to be with him for the rest of my life."
Gu Yan spoke very seriously, and Ms. Pei in front of him felt her heart tighten. She then thanked her husband. He really was right. Gu Yan was really a stubborn guy.
"How could Mom misunderstand? I know you like him too, and I won't force you two to break up. But when can you bring him back to show Mom? Then Mom will give him a big red envelope, and you can get married after graduation. What a wonderful thing."
Ms. Pei naturally went along with her son, and Gu Yan was really comforted by him. Looking at his mother's smiling face, he recalled his previous fantasy of marrying Mu Bai after graduation, and his face slowly turned red.
Just as the mother and son were having a great time, the other two participants in the banquet also arrived.
Ms. Pei naturally stood up quickly and went to the door to greet her brother and nephew, and the fake smile on her face became much more sincere.
My younger brother and nephew are much better than my barbecued pork son.
Gu Yan also stood up, but he did not notice his mother's enthusiasm towards his uncle and cousin, nor did he feel that his mother treated him differently.
——After all, as soon as he saw his uncle and cousin, he thought of Ye Wangxing.
His expression was a little indescribable, but when he thought about Ye Wangxing giving Sheng Jiu a watch, he felt slightly relieved.
Although my uncle and cousin are probably out now, it is better for them to be losers together than to have a falling out with each other later.
Gu Yan was thinking about this when his uncle and cousin finished talking to Ms. Pei and walked towards him.
But today, the two of them were a little strange. From time to time, they stretched out their left hands to adjust their ties or cuffs, and even rolled up their sleeves, which made Gu Yan look confused.
Although the watches they both wore were very cool, for a family like theirs, they were just watches. Unless they were worth hundreds of millions, the rest would just be an exclamation.
But after all, these two were so keen on showing off their watches, so Gu Yan also turned his attention to the watches. He was planning to praise them a few times and let the matter go, but after he looked at the watch carefully, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the watch.
This dial...
The size of this table...
This shell he seemed to have seen before...
Gu Yan's eyes widened instantly and he took a breath of cold air.
"Are these two watches given to you by Ye Wangxing?!"
