Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Is this the joy of being a father! …
Two pages of technical information fell lightly at Lu Yu's feet.
The good news is that when it is turned upside down, the side with the words on it cannot be seen by the naked eye.
Bad news, Lu Yu noticed the two pages of white paper and might pick them up at any time.
Cheng Yi held his breath, his heartbeat quickening. Just as Lu Yu leaned forward slightly, as if he was about to do something to the two pages of paper, he shouted, "Don't touch it!"
Lu Yu was startled and raised his eyes.
“Back, back, back—”
"Back off, back off—"
With three parts of bravery and seven parts of nerve, Cheng Yi drove people out of the "danger zone" step by step.
Lu Yu: “…”
Lu Yu: “?”
Only after retreating to a safe area did Cheng Yi return to his normal state.
"Did you suddenly develop some serious illness?" Lu Yu looked at him with a frown.
"I'm afraid you'll get sick." Cheng Yi turned around and pointed to the toilet cubicle where Zhen Xinda was, then pointed to the technical drawings on the floor, and whispered to his boss, "Those papers might be used by the person inside to wipe that."
Lu Yu: “…”
"I've read the news. Some people like to use cardboard." Cheng Yi said seriously.
Lu Yu was deeply suspicious: "Which channel will broadcast news about this? How come I don't know it?"
Cheng Yi pretended not to hear and changed the subject: "Anyway, just don't touch it. Who knows if there is any dirt on it. Listen to me, I am really doing this for your own good~"
Lu Yu stared at the pair of big, flickering eyes and really listened to the advice. He ignored the two strange pages of paper and turned to walk out of the bathroom.
Cheng Yi didn't dare to care about it anymore. He followed his boss and sighed silently in his heart.
Because he just spoke, the veil of mystery was destined to be revealed to Zhen Xinda.
But this result is not too bad. He would rather be exposed a hundred times than be misunderstood by Lu Yu as stealing secrets.
The two of them walked through the corridor on the first floor. While waiting for the elevator, Lu Yu suddenly turned around and asked him, "How is your abdominal pain?"
"Huh? What?" Cheng Yi almost didn't react. "Oh, it was a stomachache. It doesn't hurt anymore. I'm fully recovered."
After a pause, he thought of something: "Didn't you go to the bathroom to relieve yourself just now?"
"no."
"Then...you are not coming to find me, are you?" Cheng Yi was very unconvinced.
That's not in line with the boss's character.
"I didn't specifically look for you," Lu Yu turned his eyes away and denied, "It's just a coincidence. I was evaluating the performance of the company's cleaning department."
"?" Cheng Yi was shocked.
Which boss would even control the cleaning lady?
"You are so comprehensive." He praised with a smile, "No wonder you can become so strong and big!"
Lu Yu: “…”

In the afternoon, Lu Yu assigned Cheng Yi another task of data statistics.
The amount of data this time is even more astonishing than the last time.
Fortunately, there is still plenty of time and the deadline is before getting off work on Friday.
Cheng Yi estimated the workload and thought it could be completed in about three days. He said there was no rush and he could just take it easy today.
Congratulations on completing another undercover mission.
He adjusted the computer screen to work mode and opened a document he had written previously. , and then clicked on a novel that Lu Lingyi recommended to him yesterday and started reading it quietly.
I had just read less than one chapter when my phone rang and a text message popped up.
[Zhen Xinda]: Yiyi, is that you? Yiyi, my benefactor, my noble man, I will always remember today's adventure in the bathroom. Would you please treat me to a delicious meal? Just to express my gratitude~
Cheng Yi replied calmly after reading it:
[Unknown number]: It's just a small favor, no need to pay for it. Please keep confidential documents safe in the future, you may not be so lucky every time.
[Zhen Xinda]: Yes, yes, yes. To be honest, I have been sleepless for a week after losing such important information. I dare not tell anyone. If you hadn't saved me from the dire situation, I would have considered resigning.
Cheng Yi’s merit increased by +1, and he felt very relieved. He did not reply to Zhen Xinda’s text message, but switched to the APP to continue reading the novel.
The time spent slacking off is always the happiest.
Cheng Yi touched from two o'clock to four o'clock and read one third of the novel. This is a sweet story with two male protagonists, the president and the secretary. It is sweet, but a bit exaggerated and absurd.
[Cheng Yi]: Is it true that subordinates would fall in love with their superiors? What a masochist he must be!
He shared his thoughts after reading the book with Lu Lingyi.
[Lu Lingyi]: Let’s put ourselves in your shoes and my brother’s shoes… [Chuckles]
[Cheng Yi]: Please don’t, please, doing everything for me will only hurt you!
Just after sending the message, he heard someone calling him at the door. As soon as Cheng Yi walked out of the office, suddenly a tall and round creature rushed towards him and hugged him tightly.
"Godfather!" Zhen Xinda shouted with overwhelming power.
"?" Cheng Yi was terrified.
Suddenly and painlessly I had a child!
Zhen Xinda let go of him, took two steps back, bowed solemnly, and presented a box of imported chocolates with both hands.
"It's just a small gift, not a sign of respect, but I still want to treat you to a meal, on the one hand to express my gratitude, and on the other hand as a sense of ceremony. From now on, you will be my adoptive father, and every bite I take will be a bite from you..."
"Stop, stop, there's no need for that," Cheng Yi felt like Zhen Xinda was calling him old when he heard him call him "you" over and over again. My hair is almost turning white.
"I'll take the chocolates, but forget about the meal. It's just a small thing, there's no need to spend money."
"Woo, I'm going to cry, you are the best godfather in the world!" Zhen Xinda pounced on him like a big dog again.
Cheng Yi was held tightly, unable to break free, so he patted his adopted son and said helplessly, "I appreciate your filial piety, but please let me go first, so that Mr. Lu won't see us later."
As he spoke, he glanced behind him worriedly, and saw that Lu Yu was really standing behind them.
Cheng Yi: “…”
Cheng Yi: “………………”
This is really sloppy.
He pushed Zhen Xinda away, quickly straightened his clothes, and was afraid that Lu Yu would misunderstand, so he took the lead in explaining.
"We're not having an office romance. It's just a simple father-son hug."
Lu Yu: “……?”
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu," Zhen Xinda also explained, "Godfather... Oh no, Cheng Yi helped me a lot, I have no way to repay him, so..."
"I'm not interested in your father-son game," Lu Yu interrupted him in a deep voice, "This is working hours, and anything outside of work is prohibited. This includes recognizing relatives."
"...Yes, yes." The two men bowed their heads and confessed their guilt.
Lu Yu turned his gaze to Cheng Yi, his eyes were cold and his tone was even colder: "Have you finished the data statistics I asked you to do?"
"...Not yet. Isn't it due on Friday?" Cheng Yi muttered in a mosquito-like voice and secretly glanced at his boss.
Lu Yu: "I changed my mind. I'll hand it in before the end of get off work tomorrow."
"Ah!!!" Cheng Yi was dumbfounded.
How can a boss be treacherous?
Lu Yu didn't give him a chance to bargain and turned away. Cheng Yi stared at his boss's back, his eyes filled with tears of despair.
It's over. The workload of four and a half days was suddenly compressed to one and a half days. He also slacked off for half a day, so this time he had to work overtime all night.
"Godfather, what's wrong with you?" Zhen Xinda looked at his painful mask, "Are you worried about the statistics? What level?"
Cheng Yisheng has no desire: "Tens of millions."
"It's not that bad, it's just a small matter," Zhen Xinda said, "I'll help you with a program. I promise to complete the task before noon tomorrow."
"!!!"
Cheng Yi's dead heart finally came back to life. It’s so great to have an adopted son. Is this the joy of being a father?
He happily outsourced the work and returned to the office, where other colleagues looked at him with envy and jealousy.
Everyone saw what happened just now.
It feels like I just read a cool article.
"Cheng Zhu, may I ask how can I have a big boss's adopted son like you?"
Cheng Yi is a Buddhist: "Just do good things, don't worry about the future, your adopted son is hidden in your blessings."
Other colleagues: “.”
Sitting down again, Cheng Yi was in an even happier mood than when he was slacking off just now. He felt free of pressure and relieved. His adopted son had already sent another message, reporting that the data of tens of millions had been running.
That’s awesome. Cheng Yi praised himself.
There were still forty minutes before the end of the get off work day. Cheng Yi was fiddling with his phone and was about to do something else when his WeChat message rang.
He is his elder brother.
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: Go home early tonight. Qian Jin has left, but Lu Yu is still jumping around.
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: The virtual rehabilitation system project is about to enter the price competition stage, and we must hurry up to deploy the next battle plan
