Chapter 135 – The Story of Going to Jing

Ning Fei: [The boss came to Jing and kept it from me, didn’t plan to take the opportunity to meet?]

Duan Yunhong: [I thought you were arriving tomorrow or the day after. You didn’t say you were coming to Jinghui today. (Attached location address)]

Ning Fei: [……Two hours drive from the venue, suddenly don’t want to go.]

Duan Yunhong: [Aren’t you having a meeting at 9 am? I can give you a ride.]

Ning Fei thought his hotel must be booked near his workplace, how could it be on the way? But Ning Fei didn’t expose him, just turned around and told Wang Moye that he really needed to change places to stay.

“They really got back together…” Wang Moye pushed up his glasses, half-jokingly, “His hotel isn’t exactly close, and you’ll go excitedly just because he asked?”

“Of course, I’ll go. Didn’t you say the conditions are good there?” Ning Fei smiled, “Mooching off a sugar daddy’s food and drinks, will also let me enjoy your Jing.”

Wang Moye didn’t mind him saying “your Jing”, just laughed along: “Since that’s the case, I’ll also mooch off a big spender. I haven’t officially met Director Duan yet, how about we have dinner together?”

His tone was meaningful, but Ning Fei didn’t fall for it, wanted him to have a sense of crisis like being in a “scene of strife”? Dream on.

“Then I’ll ask Director Duan.” Ning Fei shook his phone very simply, “If he agrees, then I agree.”

The result was that Duan Yunhong really had dinner face-to-face with Wang Moye.

Right in the hotel restaurant where Duan Yunhong was staying, the three of them at a small table, ate a luxurious meal that was paid for by Duan Yunhong’s business trip + his own subsidy. But this “luxury” was only in comparison to other general meals. Compared to before the zombie tide, no, compared to the previous standards of this hotel, it was far inferior.

In the end, this five-star hotel before the zombie tide couldn’t provide all of its original functions, and everything had to be simplified.

But the three people eating here didn’t mind. They chatted while eating, and surprisingly, the conversation was quite smooth. There was no tension, no sarcasm, and the atmosphere was more like a working meal than a private meeting.

Ning Fei also learned from Duan Yunhong and Wang Moye’s back-and-forth that Jinghui Base also had a team with research directions similar to Wang Haiyang’s. Jinghui Base wanted Wang Haiyang’s results to be shared, and to put it bluntly, there was a suspicion of plundering, but in reality, it was also very likely to greatly promote the research and development progress of this project. This time, Duan Yunhong personally led the team to specifically discuss which content to share and jointly develop with the Jinghui team. Of course, they also had a legitimate reason for “not bringing Tianyue to discuss together” – because Tianyue didn’t have a corresponding research team.

Ning Fei didn’t care because that was true.

He calculated in his mind, immediately defected, and began to temporarily join Wang Moye’s “camp”, helping Jinghui Base to pry out more shared information. Duan Yunhong and Wang Moye both noticed this, and glanced at him with a meaningful look, but no one said it on the spot.

After this dinner, Wang Moye made an appointment with Duan Yunhong to discuss in detail at the office the next day, and left with satisfactory results.

Ning Fei followed Duan Yunhong back to the room. Duan Yunhong didn’t stand on ceremony, and said as soon as he entered the door: “If Tianyue can’t use it, you encourage other bases to snatch it. If you don’t have it yourself, others can’t monopolize it, right?”

“That’s right, especially.” Ning Fei didn’t mention that Jinghui was the one who first requested cross-regional cooperation and proposed joint research and development, and readily admitted, “If I can’t win against you, I’ll drag you down, isn’t that normal?”

“Are you sure you’re dragging me down?” Duan Yunhong took off his jacket and looked back at him, “If the joining of Jinghui accelerates the birth of the vaccine, the zombie tide will end faster. It will be even harder for Tianyue to catch up with Hui Chuan.”

Ning Fei thought to himself that he wanted to speed up the process, but of course, he couldn’t say that on the surface. He just walked to Duan Yunhong, helped him take off his coat: “If the credit ultimately falls on Jinghui, it can only be considered that Tianyue and Huichuan are tied, right? Does Director Duan still want to keep a small score and compare who is second and third? That would be too embarrassing, right.”

Duan Yunhong simply let go and let him “serve”, and sneered, “In that case, you have no confidence in winning the bet, so you started preparing for a tie?”

“Prepare for everything, anyway, it’s just saying a few words, there’s no loss.”

“You don’t lose out. You’re happy to make me uncomfortable, what do you lose?” Duan Yunhong lowered his eyes to stare at Ning Fei, and taunted, “Wang Moye’s gaze was both provocative and gloating, he was just short of directly mocking me. Do you want Jinghui to suppress Huichuan, or do you want to use Wang Moye to stimulate me?”

Ning Fei hung his coat aside: “Stimulate what?”

“You know what I’m talking about. You are a smart person, if you wanted to subtly favor one side, you wouldn’t let us see it.” Duan Yunhong stood still, just watched the person walk away, and then come back, “Do you want to show that you still have a ‘backup’, or do you just want to prick me?”

“You’re thinking too much, Director Duan.” Ning Fei stood in front of him, “It’s just because Tianyue has no chance to ‘interfere’ in your specific projects, so I have to seize the time tonight to get involved. You think I’m doing it on purpose, but I’m just eager to achieve my goals, just being impatient for quick success.”

As he said that, Ning Fei grabbed Duan Yunhong’s right hand again, and with the other hand lifted the hem of his clothes, familiarly guiding the man’s hand inside.

“Alright, don’t be angry. Let’s seize the time, you have to leave at seven tomorrow morning to send me off.”

“What’s with this attitude, you think you can gloss over offending me once with this trick, just perfunctorily get it over with?” Duan Yunhong “tsk”ed, he really didn’t like Ning Fei’s attitude of “going to bed like going to work”, and couldn’t help but say, “Still ‘seizing the time’, what, are there many patrons lined up behind?”

— Ha, as expected of a paid attitude…

Ning Fei lowered his eyes, took the initiative to hug him tightly, and the expression on his face buried in his arms was covered.

“I’m anxious, horny, please start quickly, boss.”

*

That night, Duan Yunhong was suddenly very irritable, tormenting Ning Fei badly, and rarely making the battle-hardened Ning Fei lose his temper.

Then, further, the physical exhaustion caused Ning Fei to almost embarrass himself in the demonstrative competition the next day.

In the eyes of others, Ning Fei had accurately calculated the movement trajectory and dodged the attack at the critical moment. In reality, it was just that Ning Fei felt a pain in his waist at the moment of dodging, and his movements involuntarily slowed down for a second. In that second, although Ning Fei still barely dodged, the opponent’s wind blade still cut through his coat.

So when Duan Yunhong came to pick him up that evening, he saw Ning Fei’s stinky face.

Duan Yunhong raised his eyebrows: “Who offended you again, is one day not enough for you to vent your anger…huh?”

Ning Fei, who had climbed into the passenger seat, took off his coat and threw it on his face.

Except when he was looking for fun, Ning Fei had never directly thrown his clothes on Duan Yunhong’s face. Duan Yunhong realized that it was probably related to him again, suppressed his temper, took off his clothes and flipped them over. Soon, he found the obvious cut.

“Here in Jinghui, can’t someone just pull out a knife and slash your pocket on the street, right?” Duan Yunhong tilted his head to look at the person in the passenger seat, confirming that there was no blood on him, “Could it be that you lost in the power exchange, lost face, and came to give me a stinky face?”

“Who do you think caused it?” Ning Fei sneered, “I told you last night not to twist, but you had to be crazy, I twisted my waist!”

“…” Duan Yunhong instantly felt guilty.

He was a bit too much last night, and it was intentional, just because the irritability couldn’t be extinguished. But he didn’t expect to really cause an injury, and could only stiffly reply: “Why didn’t you say so this morning?”

In fact, Ning Fei only felt a slight pain in the morning, and the movements were too fierce and big during the battle, which completely strained his waist. But the root of the matter was Duan Yunhong, so Ning Fei would not consume himself, so he blamed it all on Duan Yunhong.

“What’s the use of telling you?” Ning Fei said coldly, “Can you still help me call in sick and not go to the exchange?”

“At least you can apply some medicine. This is also a bit effective for pain relief for internal injuries, spray it.” Duan Yunhong took out a bottle of Huichuan’s developed special medicine for external injuries, and handed it to him, “Is your medicine gone? I’ll give you a box to take with you when you leave.”

Ning Fei sprayed the medicine with a stinky face, and threw the medicine into the passenger seat drawer after spraying, without saying whether he wanted to take the medicine.

He didn’t retort but listened to the medicine, but made Duan Yunhong not know what to do. Director Duan had to continue to offer conditions: “I’ll find you two new coats?”

Ning Fei: “…”

Duan Yunhong: “Really lost? You still shouldn’t get such a fragile body in the future, spend some…”

“What does it have to do with you, drive your car.” Ning Fei finally opened his mouth again, enduring the pain to pull on the seat belt, “I’m poor, can’t afford to spend millions and millions of dollars like Director Duan, it’s not appropriate for rich people to guide poor people on how to spend money.”

Duan Yunhong didn’t believe that he was really “poor”. According to his KPI-first work style, and the way he “extorted” millions of luck at every turn, he didn’t seem like a person with little luck.

— But he sometimes does seem to need luck very much…

Duan Yunhong couldn’t help but guess that Ning Fei might have some place where he needed a huge amount of luck, which led him to have to efficiently and quickly complete one debt collection task after another. The persona he chose each time was one that could strongly promote the task, but didn’t require too much luck to exchange for. In contrast, Ning Fei sacrificed his own comfort, and had to spend a lot of energy to complete the task.

Duan Yunhong knew that he couldn’t ask for a reason.

Ning Fei didn’t like any topics that touched his heart.

Duan Yunhong didn’t ask any more questions, he thought Ning Fei really lost and lost face. During the two-hour drive, besides the light music flowing from the car stereo, the two no longer had any communication.

When they went back to the hotel to eat, Duan Yunhong also helped Ning Fei clip dishes and scoop soup because of a trace of guilt in his heart, or because he was involuntarily stared at by Ning Fei silently. Even after Ning Fei entered the bathroom to take a shower after the meal, Duan Yunhong couldn’t help but follow to the door and ask: “Really don’t need help?”

“Director Duan, my waist is injured, I can’t accompany you for a bathroom play.” Ning Fei turned his head to glance at him, expressionless, “Please take a sick leave.”

“I don’t…”

Before Duan Yunhong could finish denying, Ning Fei closed the bathroom door in front of him. Duan Yunhong “tsk”ed, and stood at the door and raised his voice: “I’m not going to do it with you in the bathroom. I’m really asking if you need help taking a shower because of your waist injury.”

There was no opening of the door, nor was there any response.

Duan Yunhong realized that this was the stubborn temper expressing “no need for help”, and while secretly scolding himself for really rushing to find unhappiness, he walked back to the sofa and sat down, took out his phone to look at the messages.

[Director Duan, Ning Fei won today, and won quite beautifully. Why did you say he lost today???]

[His wind power was used very exquisitely! I also recorded the screen, and the power center will definitely upload the official video later, step by step to analyze and teach his actions! (Attached video)]

Duan Yunhong: “…”

— This guy, won and didn’t refute me?
