Chapter 1
Chapter One
Near noon, the department manager was absent, and the atmosphere in the office that had been busy all morning gradually calmed down.
It just so happened that someone took back the company's new brochure, and many people were attracted to it.
"Wow, the printing is so delicate, the paper feels different."
"Come and spread out, let's watch together..."
This brochure was taken some time ago. The characters in it are all from the internal employees of Yuntu Company. The filming and design are all in charge of the group headquarters. It has a sense of luxury at first glance.
After reading it again, everyone still feels a little unfinished.
Some people couldn't help sighing: "Oh, it's a pity that Xiao Qi didn't come at that time, otherwise our department would be able to get one more shot."
The chatting voice was not too small. The object under discussion heard the movement and finally raised its head from the computer, revealing a beautiful little face that was no less than anyone in the brochure.
When everyone saw him, they couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed.
"Oh, Xiao Qi came half a month late."
Despite being together for more than two months, colleagues still failed to take the intern's face as normal.
Qi Ji is a boy, but his appearance is surprisingly eye-catching and delicate, and he can even be called beautiful. It's just that because of the clear eyes like a pair of deer, and the naturally shallow warm-tone hair color, the aggression in the appearance has been diluted a lot, and it only makes people feel pleasing to the eye, cute and cute.
When we first met, everyone thought the company had hired a minor.
Qi Ji's eyes are really special, and seeing him once is enough to impress him. In addition, his voice is soft, and the corners of his lips have a small smile all day long. At first, everyone thought he was an intern in the sales department.
No one thought that he was actually here to apply for a programmer.
The largest proportion of employees in Yuntu is programmers. Every day, the cafeteria is filled with all kinds of plaid shirts. Although Qi Ji has an eye-catching face, his personality is no different from that of a typical programmer. At first glance, he looks like a well-behaved child from childhood to adulthood.
Hearing everyone's regret, he just smiled shyly, his face slightly embarrassed.
"I'm an intern, so I shouldn't be able to participate in the promotion, right?"
"What's the matter," colleagues said, unanimously, "Xiao Qi's performance can be left."
They were chatting hotly when there was a knock on the door of the office.
"Tuk Tuk."
The door of the house was not closed. As soon as everyone looked up, they saw the young woman at the door with delicate wavy curls and 12-centimeter high-heeled shoes.
Someone recognized her: "Tetsu Chen?"
The person who came was Chen Zixuan, the assistant of the vice president of Yuntu.
This man is also a man of influence in the company. He graduated from a prestigious school and has a bright resume. His business ability is the same as the delicate makeup on his face. special assistant.
Moreover, this special assistant Chen is also the most strict and unsmiling vice president of the company, and others are trembling when submitting documents, but she can fly around the world with the vice president all year round, which is admirable to ordinary employees.
As soon as Chen Zixuan came, the loose atmosphere in the office suddenly became a little restrained. The team leader coughed lightly and asked, "Is Special Assistant Chen looking for our manager? Unfortunately, he is not here now."
People of this level naturally don't come to chat easily, so everyone guessed that she came to find the manager.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zixuan looked around the house, but said, "I'm not looking for Manager Sun."
Then, she called her name directly: "Qi Ji."
"You come with me."
When they heard Chen Zixuan's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Qi Ji curiously.
Qi Ji is well-behaved, beautiful and diligent, and won unanimous praise from the whole department in a short time. It's just that he has only been here for two months, and his internship has not turned into a regular. No matter what he thinks, it has nothing to do with the elite special assistant.
Under everyone's attention, Qi Ji got up and followed Chen Zixuan out.
The two walked to the corner corridor, Chen Zixuan stood still, Qi Ji looked up at her, and let out an obedient cry.
"Xue. Sister."
Chen Zixuan lifted the long curly hair on the back of his neck, and Zhou's body was obviously much softer. Seeing the familiar junior, she asked with a smile, "I just came back from a business trip. How are you doing in the company recently? Are you still adapting?"
Qi Ji also smiled, and a pear vortex was pressed out of the light-colored lips: "It's good."
The two briefly chatted a few words, and Qi Ji asked, "Sister Xue. came over here, is there anything you want to do with me?"
"I have nothing to do at noon. I'm here to eat with you. I'll give you a message on the way. Someone wants to see you in the afternoon."
Just in time for lunch, Chen Zixuan glanced at the exquisite watch: "Let's go, let's go to the restaurant and chat while eating."
Xinghai Group has an in-house restaurant, and Yuntu, a subsidiary, is no exception. As soon as the two entered the company restaurant, they saw a young boy in a curly pink T-shirt waving at them.
"here!"
Qi sent a greeting back: "Senior."
The three of them are all from F University. They participated in the same student organization during their studies, and now they have joined the same company. The relationship has always been very good. When Chen Zixuan did not come back from a business trip, Qi Ji would often have dinner with senior Li Anbei.
After the meal was finished, Chen Zixuan finished speaking to Qi Ji.
"You have been an intern in the operation for the past two months, and you are in charge of the daily maintenance of the Xinghai Reading app, right?"
Seeing Qi Ji nodded, Chen Zixuan continued to ask: "Did you make a new page design for the front-end interface of Xinghai Reading, and also changed the whole set of layout icons and the like?"
Qi Ji hesitated for a moment: "Yes... is there any problem?"
The work assigned to him by the department is the daily operation of Xinghai Reading, and the design changes are additionally made by Qi Ji. Although the manager's approval was sought before the update, he was still a little unsure after hearing Chen Zixuan's question.
"No," Chen Zixuan couldn't help laughing at the sight of others, "No problem, it's because of your revision that the number of active users of the updated APP has surged, and the proportion of traffic and pipeline has increased significantly. This is a good thing, you have done a great job. pretty."
The reading apps on the market are similar, but Xinghai didnโt pay much attention to the reading software that comes with its mobile phones, so it left the daily operations to an intern.
The revision designed by Qi Ji has improved the user interface comfort by more than one grade, and the sharing page is also beautifully done, which has attracted a lot of attention on social media. In addition, Xinghai itself has channels to cooperate with many reading websites, and the user stickiness after drainage can also be well maintained, which has led to a significant increase in active users in a short period of time.
The manager and Qi Ji mentioned this matter before, but Qi Ji didn't quite understand why Xue.jie would tell him this.
"Some time ago, the design department noticed the revision of Xinghai Reading during the overall review. Their department director seems to be very interested in this design, and specially adjusted your resume."
Chen Zixuan tapped the tabletop, and a bright color appeared on her delicate and crystal nails.
"Your manager wasn't there. I happened to be passing by, so I took the initiative to ask for this job. Director Wu asked you to find the design work at hand, and go to her office at three o'clock in the afternoon."
"Yo, that's a good thing," Li Anbei, who was choosing among the dishes on the side, heard the words and interjected, "Didn't Qi Qi want to vote for the design department?"
"Ah, yes," Qi Ji didn't seem to react. "The design department said that it would not be hiring, so I went to the operation side."
There was a little nervousness in his expression, and there was a sense of surprise falling from the sky: "That afternoon..."
Seeing this, Chen Zixuan couldn't help comforting: "It's okay, don't be nervous."
She wasn't long-winded, she knew Qi Ji's ability back in school, but at this moment she couldn't help but say a few more words.
"Director Wu is a very nice person. He will speak directly if he has something to say. He has a good impression of you. You can go there at three."
Maybe this child gave birth to a look that people couldn't help but want to care about.
The three of them came early and got a booth in a secluded corner. After the business was over, the topic naturally turned a corner.
Just as Chen Zixuan turned the plate in front of him and turned towards Qi Ji, he heard Li Anbei lowered his voice and touched her sweetly: "Zixuan, Brother Xuan~ I want to ask you something? "
Chen Zixuan moved the soup bowl's hand and couldn't bear it any longer: "...Tell me well."
"Okay." Li Anbei didn't care, and was still enthusiastic: "Did you see our new president today?"
"See you, what's wrong?"
After Chen Zixuan responded, she turned her head and called Qi Ji.
"Xiao Qi, I don't eat meat to lose weight. I'll give you this chicken leg."
Today's set meal in the cafeteria is three dishes, one soup, and one chicken drumstick. Chen Zixuan didn't plan to ask for drumsticks. When he was queuing for dinner, he talked to Qi Ji and forgot about it.
Qi Ji, who was immersed in his meal, heard the words, and took the chicken thigh: "Well, thank you, sister."
Seeing this, Li Anbei also shouted to give it: "Come to Qiqi, help the senior to eat another one, and I will lose weight too."
He was scouring the dinner plate just now, but he didn't eat much in total: "Otherwise, how can you find a boyfriend if you gain weight."
Chen Zixuan wanted to roll her eyes when she heard it: "Didn't you have to go to the gym last month to lose weight to find a boyfriend? Why have you changed your diet now?"
Li Anbei's sexuality is not a secret. He was relatively restrained when he was in school. After graduation, he entered Yuntu and went to the company's publicity department with the highest concentration of gay. He completely released himself in front of acquaintances.
"Eat for three points and seven points," Li Anbei felt aggrieved when she saw Chen Zixuan's unbelief written on her face, "I'm serious."
"Ask Qi Qi, he helped me eat the meat these days."
When Qi Ji heard this, he nodded, "Yeah."
Chen Zixuan glanced at Qi Ji and asked suspiciously, "Really? Why do I think Xiao Qi is still thin."
Qi Ji didn't answer, smiled lightly, and continued to dig into the chicken legs, looking shy.
According to his experience in this period of time, it is strange that he is not thin.
It's just that some things can't be said to people after all.
Li Anbei didn't notice the difference, bit his chopsticks and said vaguely, "You don't know Qi Qi, you can't gain weight even if you eat much."
When they first met, they were surprised by Qi Ji's appetite, but only later did they find out that there are indeed some people who are born to eat multiple servings without gaining weight, and they are envious of all the female classmates.
Li An turned his head to look at Qi Ji. The boy was always concentrating on eating, and he looked like a hamster eating nuts. Because he lowered his head, the soft hair on his forehead fell down and was reflected by the light in the restaurant with bright windows. The naturally lighter hair color looked golden, and people couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it.
I have to admit that in addition to losing weight, another reason for feeding this child is to gain a full sense of accomplishment.
Li Anbei loosened his chopsticks, rested his cheeks in his palms, and sighed while watching.
"Alas, if I had Qi Qi's condition, I would have slept all over the city of S."
"Cough...cough..."
Qi Jijie was really choked by this. The red smudged all the way to the base of the ear, and even the soft tip of the ear was dyed with a thin powder.
Chen Zixuan raised her eyebrows and glared at him: "Li Anbei, don't bring bad students."
She turned and pulled out a tissue and handed it to Qi Ji.
Li Anbei smiled and patted Qi Ji's back: "Just kidding, is Qi Qi okay?"
Qi Ji took the paper and waved: "I'm fine."
He looked a little ashamed to answer, but after calming down, he still ate quietly.
"Let's not talk about Qi Qi," Li Anbei changed the subject, before he finished his gossip, "Brother Xuan, I heard that the new CEO seems to be quite young?"
He blinked: "How is it, is the real person handsome?"
"Handsome, young, and still a second-generation." Chen Zixuan's tone was full of sincerity, "I heard that he once served in the special forces, and he can carry three with one hand like you."
"Wow, so man?"
"..." Even though he knew Li Anbei's virtue for a long time, Chen Zixuan was choked by his excited tone.
"What's wrong?" Li Anbei didn't miss Chen Zixuan's words, he asked, "You don't have a good impression of this guy?"
"I don't have the qualifications to evaluate. It's just that the rumors about this person are a bit..." Chen Zixuan thought for a while before picking out a suitable word, "Legend."
Li Anbei was curious: "How do you say it?"
"It's said to be the second generation. It's not clear which one's son, but he has no management experience before, so he was directly thrown over. And..."
Chen Zixuan paused, and a subtle color appeared on her beautiful face.
"This character doesn't seem to be very good. I heard that there was an accident in high school. Later, he joined the army before finishing college. It was not peaceful when he finally retired."
Li Anbei said with a "huh": "I heard from my colleagues and they talked about that legend who threw a bottle of wine and smashed the field in high school...is that the one?"
The position of President of Yuntu has been vacant for a few days, and it has long been a hot topic for employees after dinner. The gossip on the table at the booth was secretive and exciting, and the unconsciously lowered voice was more attractive than normal speech.
However, Qi Ji on the side had no interest in this, and still ate his own meal wholeheartedly. In his eyes, this high-profile airborne CEO was not as important as the three chicken legs in front of him.
He was never indifferent to the affairs of outsiders.
The two people next to him were also used to his insensitivity to gossip. Chen Zixuan thought for a while, and said, "I don't know exactly whether it was smashed or not, but this high school did drop a bottle of wine and angered someone who was not easy to provoke. Later, he was sent abroad to study at university."
Li Anbei was amazed: "I have only heard of this kind of playboy in rumors before, but I didn't expect to encounter a real version."
"By the way, this time he was airborne..." He wanted to continue, remembering Chen Zixuan's identity, and abruptly took the second half back.
"What's wrong?" Chen Zixuan asked.
"It's okay, it's okay." Li Anbei waved his hand hastily.
What he wanted to ask was actually whether the new president's airborne this time squeezed the position of vice president Zhang.
After the transfer of the president, everyone thought that Zhang Fu, the vice president, would take over this position. Zhang Fu's ability and prestige were obvious to all. Later, I suddenly heard that a new president would be airborne, and the employees were all in an uproar.
As soon as the new Airborne President arrives, he will definitely have friction with Vice President Zhang. But it's not suitable for Chen Zixuan to say this. Chen Zixuan is Zhang's special assistant. No matter how familiar they are, it's not easy to say this directly.
Although Li Anbei speaks casually, he is not unreasonable.
He casually said: "I want to ask, when will the new president officially meet us."
Chen Zixuan didn't think too much, and said, "This is still unclear. His affairs are handled by his own assistant, and it seems that he has not yet connected with the company."
The topic was pulled away, and after the three of them finished their lunch, they went back to their respective departments.
Before parting, Chen Zixuan, who was about to go to the bathroom to touch up her makeup, also called Qi Ji.
"Xiao Qi, don't forget the afternoon!"
Speaking of a three.
"it is good!"
Qi Ji responded seriously. When he returned to the office, there were already a few colleagues who came back first.
Seeing Qi Ji, colleagues couldn't help but wonder, "Xiao Qi, what did Assistant Chen tell you to do?"
They haven't forgotten the shock that Chen Zixuan's appearance brought to the office.
Qi Ji explained briefly: "Sister Zixuan is my classmate. Sister, she just came back from a business trip and asked me to have lunch."
"Oh, you are all F big?"
"Yes, we were in the same student organization before."
Hearing what Qi Ji said, the colleagues did not ask any further questions.
It didn't take long for the afternoon work to begin.
At three o'clock, the manager hadn't come back yet. Qi Zhi went to talk to the team leader, then got up and went to the design department.
Yuntu occupies an entire office building. The design department is on the seventeenth floor. Qi Ji holds a portfolio and a tablet, and turns into the elevator.
When he passed, the elevator happened to stop on this floor, and there were already many people standing inside.
Qi Ji paused in his footsteps, but saw the "Open" button on the screen next to the door lit up.
People in the elevator looked up at him one after another, Qi Ji took a deep breath, took a few quick steps, and stepped into the elevator.
Thank you softly to the person at the door who helped hold the door open button, Qi Ji faced the elevator door and stood still.
The elevator was full, not to mention more than a dozen people, Qi Ji stood on the outermost side, still unable to avoid physical contact with other people around.
Qi Ji secretly frowned.
He is very uncomfortable.
Qi Ji was born with sensitive senses and sensitive skin. Accidental bumps on weekdays will leave conspicuous red marks, and his perception of pain and the like is magnified several times than that of ordinary people.
But for some reason, his sensitivity has become particularly acute in recent times.
So that as soon as someone approached, Qi Ji would feel pressure, and even normal contact with people would feel uncomfortable.
So when he saw so many people, he hesitated and didn't want to enter the elevator.
During this period of time, Qi Ji has tried his best to avoid contact with other people, but it is impossible to achieve complete isolation. Now crowded in a crowded elevator, and the unintentional touches from all around him gave him a faint headache.
The discomfort from the torso gathered in the heart, and repeatedly stabbed the beating heart like a needle. Qi Ji stared at the beating digits on the screen, almost holding his breath to count down, and finally waited for the 17.
It wasn't until he left the elevator and walked to the window to take a few breaths of fresh air that he managed to suppress the nausea in his throat.
It is late autumn, and the cool breeze is bleak. Looking down from the high-rise building, there are only black and gray eyes full of traffic, and even the artificially added green plants have reduced the color.
Qi Ji lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes restrained the dim light inside.
It's approaching three o'clock, and it's not easy to delay. After standing by the window for a while, Qi Ji returned to the corridor and followed the house number to the office of Director Wu of the Design Department.
"Tuk Tuk."
The knock on the door fell, and a low-pitched male voice sounded from the door.
"Come in."
Qi Ji's movements paused slightly, and the smile on the corners of his lips became a little shallower.
He remembered that Director Wu was a lady and the children were several years old.
Why is there a man's voice coming from inside?
Without thinking too much, Qi Ji pushed the door open and went in.
As soon as he raised his head, he met the gaze of a strange and handsome young man.
The man also happened to look up.
The man's pupils were extremely pale and his eyes were cold. At first glance, it is actually a cold vertical pupil that looks like a ferocious beast.
The back of Qi Ji's neck suddenly became cold, his back was tense, and his whole body instantly stiffened.
Almost even the well-behaved smile on his face was cracked and shattered.
The dizziness and dizziness caused by the crowded elevator were instantly swept away, and the threat that came upon me directly aroused the vigilance of the body.
It was an oppression that only people like them could perceive.
The instinct for survival was awakened in an instant. When he woke up, a speaker was almost embodied in his ear, and he shouted hoarsely at the maximum decibel soundโโ
run!
Before the sanity collapsed, he used his last remaining strength to hold Qi Ji's stiff legs, preventing him from actually retreating. However, the chilling air that rushed towards him had made Qi Ji a hundred times harder than when he was in the elevator.
For a moment, Qi Ji even felt in a trance that he suddenly stood back in the cramped boxing ring that was screaming frantically and scorched by the lights on this bright day.
