Pyramid Hanging Upside Down Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Ji Xingyuan didn’t want to pay attention to him and just drank.

Bo Hanxu’s heart-to-heart talk service didn’t even come to fruition. He couldn’t sit still because he was hit with a problem. He got up to get ice cubes and prepared to mix some wine by himself.

Ji Xingyuan could drink when he was depressed, and the more he drank, the more he drank, but he couldn’t bear to drink so hard.

After mixing it, Bo Hanxu gave Jian Junshuang a glass.

After Jian Junshuang took it, he said “thank you” to Bai Hanxu, took a sip and put it aside. He didn’t like drinking, and he came here just for his cousin.

“Ji Xingyuan, if you don’t want to talk, we can drink with you until you go to the hospital, but this won’t solve the problem.” Jian Jun said happily, “You are not someone who dares not face the problem directly. Tell me why you came here to drink.”

Ji Xingyuan had a sullen face and told the previous events in a mute voice, including the argument in the office that was not an argument.

After listening to this, Jian Junshuang couldn’t help but pick up the wine glass again and drank half of the glass. He grabbed the key point and asked, “I think Qi Feiluan’s question is right. Why do you always think he will leave you?”

“He refused to help you get through your vulnerable period. The two reasons he gave were: he was afraid of damaging the relationship between you and Mu He’an, and he thought you were busy at work during the day and needed to rest. These are reasonable suggestions based on your perspective and interests.”

“In addition, as for applying for New Year’s Day holiday, this is the treatment he deserves as an employee; applying to go to the planet to take over the investigation mission, this is also his duty as a subordinate.”

Jian Junshuang concluded: “I don’t think there is anything wrong with Qi Feiluan’s rejection and application. The question is why you reacted so fiercely. If I were you, I would appreciate this kind of subordinate who is me-centered, starts from my interests, and has the courage to accept difficult tasks.”

“And… helping the boss get through the vulnerable period is not originally the job responsibility of subordinates, right?” After hearing this, Bai Hanxu’s eyes widened and he was shocked, and couldn’t help but interject.

“He and I are not in a relationship between superior and subordinate.” Ji Xingyuan retorted after hearing this.

“What kind of relationship is that?” Jian Junshuang and Ji Xingyuan looked at each other, “Ji Xingyuan, what do you think the relationship between you and Qi Feiluan is? A couple relationship?”

Jian Junshuang leaned back, picked up a bottle of wine from the side and poured it into his empty glass, and said, “Although you are my cousin, I still want to say that it is already the 23rd century and slavery has been eliminated long ago. Your behavior is enough to be taken to court hundreds of times.”

Ji Xingyuan was silent for a while, then said with difficulty: “I just don’t want him to leave me.”

“Then the question comes back again,” Bai Hanxu walked to Jian Junshuang and sat down next to him with his own glass of wine. “Why do you always feel that Fei Luan wants to leave you? It’s been almost twenty years and you have been inseparable. He has never left you.”

Under the gaze of two pairs of eyes, Ji Xingyuan’s body became a little more depressed.

Why do you think Qi Feiluan will leave him?

Because he himself knew that what he had done was unforgivable. If it were anyone else, they would choose to leave without hesitation.

“Three years ago…” Ji Xingyuan said with difficulty.

No, if it’s past midnight now, it should be four years ago.

Four years ago, in the winter of 2240, Ji Xingyuan was only 21 years old at that time. He had just graduated from school and had been involved in family affairs for less than a year. Then he faced a comprehensive suppression from Ji Tailin.

Ji Xingyuan’s father is a complete pervert.

Ji Xingyuan has understood this from his mother’s madness since he was a child, so he does not feel frustrated by the comprehensive suppression from his father. It can even be said that he has expected it.

He is still young, and temporary weakness and dormancy will make this old beast relax its vigilance.

He was waiting for a fatal blow.

But fate is never kind, it’s just cold, as cold as winter.

Ji Xingyuan’s mother, Jian Lu, also realized that he was being suppressed. The woman who was elegant and beautiful most of the time, the woman with whom he did not get along much, came close to his ear and said, “Son, I want a gun.” During the rare opportunity for the two of them to have contact.

“A loaded gun.”

“I know that at least you can still do this. Let me help you solve the biggest obstacle in front of you, okay?”

At the end of her words, some terrifying madness appeared in her eyes.

“No.” Ji Xingyuan refused at the time, because he knew that the woman in front of him was taking advantage of him. If she really got the gun, she would shoot him first.

Ji Xingyuan pointed at his mother and said, “He can hear it.”

The appearance of harmony between mother and son was suddenly broken, Jian Lu began to tremble, her eyes were filled with broken waves, she stood up nervously, and said quickly while moving away from him: “Ji Xingyuan, Ji Xingyuan, you really have his blood flowing on your body, you are as much a monster as him!”

Perhaps the tragedy began at that moment. At that time, Ji Xingyuan had no feeling at all about Jian Lu’s madness and accusations. He actually had little relationship with his parents.

Ji Xingyuan knew very well that he was not what his mother expected to be born. His mother hated his birth, and his father regarded him as just another chain to bind his mother.

After Ji Tailin discovered that he was of little use in restraining Jian Lu, he regarded him as a tool to inherit the Ji family and sent him out for training very early.

The only thing the young Ji Xingyuan had was Qi Feiluan who was always by his side.

And that was the last time Ji Xingyuan saw his mother.

During his parents’ next union, Jian Lu furiously angered Ji Tailin, and Ji Tailin accidentally broke Jian Lu’s neck bones.

Ji Xingyuan’s mother, who was proud and elegant all her life, died in a less than beautiful manner. The Ji family did not even hold a farewell ceremony for the body, but was directly cremated and buried.

On the day of Jian Lu’s funeral, the first snow fell in 2240. The heavy snow fell, resembling the snow-white feathers of a heron.

Ji Xingyuan stood at the funeral for a long time, looking at the people passing by to express their condolences, with no expression on his face.

At the end of the funeral, he turned around and walked towards the motorcade without stopping. He immediately saw Qi Feiluan waiting in front of the car, looking at him anxiously.

After seeing him, Qi Feiluan quickly walked towards him, grabbed him and walked over there.

“It’s too cold outside. You’re freezing. Go back to the car and warm up for a while.”

Qi Feiluan said he was freezing cold, but in fact Ji Xingyuan could feel that the hand holding his was as cold as a piece of ice. He knew how long he stood at the funeral and how long Qi Feiluan also stood outside the car waiting for him.

Ji Xingyuan in turn wrapped Qi Feiluan’s hand, folding the two cold hands together, and then gradually regained some warmth.

After the two got into the car, the autonomous driving system drove to Ji’s manor. Qi Feiluan sat next to him, looked at him with burning eyes, and asked him: “Are you okay?”

Qi Feiluan was caring about him, and he felt that he would be hurt by his mother’s sudden death.

With this understanding, Ji Xingyuan lowered his eyes, showing some sadness, and said: “It’s okay.”

Sure enough, Qi Feiluan saw this and said, “Ji Xingyuan, I’m still with you.”

When Ji Xingyuan raised his head and looked at Qi Feiluan again, he saw burning flames.

Qi Feiluan was not very good at comforting others. He just solemnly said, “I will always be by your side,” as if he had sworn an oath.

Forever?

Ji Xingyuan is a person who neither believes in oaths nor in eternity, but at that moment he really believed it.

At the funeral, Ji Xingyuan only found it ridiculous. Those guests who came to express condolences were not really here to express condolences. Even when he was standing here, he was not grieving for Jian Lu’s death. He just had to stand here as Jian Lu’s son.

These people come and go, but they don’t really mean it when they’re alive, and they don’t really mean it after they die.

Ji Xingyuan originally thought that he would be like this in his life, living in false relationships, and then ending his life in the false sadness of others.

But the moment he walked out of the funeral and saw Qi Feiluan, and saw him in the car with glaring eyes and said to him, “I will always be by your side,” he knew that he had someone who only came for him and only cared about him.

Looking back on the time when the two met until now, Ji Xingyuan firmly believes that Qi Feiluan was born for him, will always be by his side, and will die for him in the future.

After Jian Lu’s death, Ji Tailin intensified his efforts to find his Omega lover and suppress and control his son.

Not long after, Ji Tailin found Ji Xingyuan and told him that he wanted to arrange an Omega for him. He must marry a top Omega who is well matched, so that he can give birth to an excellent heir.

Ji Xingyuan sneered at this. He had seen enough of the ridiculous things between Ji Tailin and Jian Lu, and had smelled enough of the various Omega pheromones on Ji Tailin.

Ji Xingyuan rejected Ji Tailin at that time.

“AO combined? Then, what happened between you again?”

Ji Tailin sat opposite him. He was not angered after hearing his rejection, but had a strange smile on his face.

“Then who do you want to combine with, your Beta gadget? He has no pheromones and can’t satisfy you at all.”

“Also, Ji Xingyuan, do you know why AO combination has been the mainstream for thousands of years? Don’t underestimate the impact of physiological instinct on yourself, especially for Alpha and Omega.”

“Sometimes I often suspect that Alpha and Omega are both human species that have not yet fully evolved. In our special period, our instincts far outweigh our rationality, and our physiological mechanisms dominate us.”

“Although the mainstream says that Alpha is the race that stands at the top of the pyramid, we all know that we are slaves to pheromones, and that little Beta is not. Even if you can tolerate the effects of pheromones on you, how do you know that little Beta won’t get out at any time, and you can’t mark him.”

“This has nothing to do with you.” Ji Xingyuan didn’t want to talk to Ji Tailin about Qi Feiluan, so he stood up and wanted to leave.

As soon as Ji Xingyuan took a step forward, he heard Ji Tailin speaking from behind him: “You know, your mother mentioned you to me before she died. She said that you are worthy of having the same blood as mine. You are a monster who cannot learn to love at all. You will only bring pain and misfortune to the people you love. Sooner or later, the person you love will not be able to bear it anymore and will leave you like crazy and use all kinds of means. Even if the only way to leave you is death, he will not hesitate.”

Ji Xingyuan heard Ji Tailin laugh softly behind him, like a devil whispering behind him: “He will definitely leave you.”
