    Chapter 3 Goodbye “If my brother comes, you can stay here.”

    “We’ll see!” Xi Xingyu said in a long tone, and solemnly extended his little finger, “Lagou, if my brother comes, you will stay here, and you are not allowed to make excuses to go back.”

    Qi Jiejie hooked his short fingers and shook them slightly: “Okay, pull the hook, but first, you have to finish your homework.”

    “Deal!” Xi Xingyu immediately immersed himself in his homework.

    Seeing him like this, Qi Jie couldn’t help but laugh. His eyes passed outside the window, but he remembered…

    Qu Mingluo’s face.

    But this has nothing to do with Xi Xingyu’s brother, and Qi Jiexue isn’t that curious.

    “Teacher Xiaoqi, this question!” Xi Xingyu pushed the exercise book over, “What I calculated looks weird.”

    Qi Jiexue took a pen and wrote on the draft paper for Xi Xingyu to read. Xi Xingyu was very smart. Qi Jiexue wrote it and he understood it.

    “I will.”

    “That’s so smart, Xiaoxing.” Qi Jiejue said, “Continue to write something else.”

    “No problem.”

    As soon as he finished writing the topic on his hand, he realized something was wrong: “Then I’ll finish it soon. You won’t be able to wait until my brother comes. Don’t you want to see my brother?”

    “No.” Qi Jiejie ruffled his hair, “What do I have to hide?”

    “I don’t know. I feel like Brother Xiaoqi, you don’t like contact with strangers.” Xi Xingyu said, “I just ignored it. I’m sorry, brother.”

    Qi Jiejue smiled and said to him, “No.”

    Obviously he doesn’t care.

    Xi Xingyu just complimented him from the bottom of his heart. His brother was good-looking and had no other meaning. Qi Jiexue would not misunderstand him.

    After Xi Xingyu finished his homework, Qi Jiejie said goodbye to him.

    The salary paid to Qi Jiejie by the Xi family is very considerable, and the time is relatively free.

    Qi Jiexue only needs to confirm that the homework and training that Xi Xingyu needs to complete are completed, and he can go back.

    After Qi Jiejie left the gate, he went directly to ride his bicycle. Not long after riding, he saw…

    Qu Ming Luo.

    Qi Jiejie was stunned. Why did Qu Mingluo come here on foot?

    But he may live here, and Qi Jiejie is not sure. However, since it is so awkward in the morning, it is better to say hello to him.

    “Mr. Qu is good.” Qi Jiejue pretended to be relaxed, “I followed you here.”

    “It’s not funny.” Qu Mingluo dismissed Qi Jiejue’s joke.

    “That’s very embarrassing.” Qi Jiejue chose to tell the truth, “I’m actually here to be a tutor.”

    “Got it.”

    Qu Mingluo raised his eyes, his eyes stopped on his face for a second, and then fell into the basket of his bicycle.

    At this time, there was a piece of strawberry cake in the basket of Qi Jiejie’s car, which Xi Xingyu asked his aunt to make for him.

    “The student’s surname is Xi.”

    Qi Jiejue realized that this was not a question. He looked at Qu Mingluo with doubtful eyes, but Qu Mingluo stopped talking. When they passed by, he said: “Xiao Xing likes these, this is what he did.”

    Qi Jie was stunned in place, and then he realized that this was Xi Xingyu’s distant relative.

    …It’s quite close to me.

    Qi Jiejie now felt that the sixth sense was inoculating him when he thought of Qu Mingluo’s face just now.

    It’s a pity that I didn’t realize it at that time.

    Xi Xingyu is indeed not lying, he is indeed a very good-looking brother.

    Qi Jiejie awkwardly took out his mobile phone, but stopped for a long time, not knowing what he was going to see.

    He simply didn’t think about it anymore, put his phone back in his pocket, got on the car and rushed to the subway station.

    On the way, Qi Jiejie originally wanted to send a message to Lin Shuangyu, but after thinking about it, he felt that he should ask less.

    But while he was thinking wildly, his phone vibrated. It was a message from Lin Shuangyu.

    [Xiao Qi, Mr. Qu has to listen to the intern’s report on Monday morning.】

    Qi Jiejue: [All interns?】

    【Just you.】

    Then, Lin Shuangyu sent a voice message to Qi Jiejie.

    “Go up to the 28th floor by yourself and report face to face to our handsome Mr. Qu.”

    There was no joking in her tone, she was seriously reminding Qi Jiejie.

    Thinking of the man’s facial features and high salary, Qi Jiejue felt that he wasn’t that bad after all.

    Qi Jiexue stared at the phone screen for a long time.

    The word “just you” is like some kind of secret hint.

    He remembered what Qu Mingluo said when he passed by. It was as if he had made such a request deliberately because he had just passed by him.

    Qi Jiejue shivered, and then shook his head.

    In the next few days, he went to work as usual during the day, and went to tutor Xi Xingyu after get off work. Xi Xingyu didn’t ask a word, so it was obvious that Qu Mingluo didn’t mention what happened to him that day, and Qi Jiexue didn’t take the initiative to say anything.

    The two would never meet each other in the company. Qu Ming was on the twenty-eighth floor and would not deliberately go down to observe the employees.

    On Monday morning, Qi Jiexue arrived at the company earlier than before. He had to report to Qu Mingluo in person, but he still wasn’t so…

    Peace of mind.

    Because of the last accident, the elevator buttons were also modified.

    On the twenty-eighth floor, other employees could not press the dial button at all. Qi Jiejue pressed the dial symbol after entering the elevator.

    Qi Jiejie could tell that dialing here would lead to a video, so he checked the angle in advance to confirm that his face from this angle was also impeccable.

    It took Qu Mingluo a second from connecting to hanging up, and then the characters on the twenty-eighth floor lit up.

    Watching the numbers jumping one by one, Qi Jiexue remembered the first time she saw him.

    At that time, he thought Qu Mingluo was some kind of senior, but now that he got to know him better, he was just sure that he was someone he couldn’t understand.

    The door opens, and the dark gray cashmere carpet is spread to the end.

    Qu Mingluo’s office door was open. He was sitting at the table reading documents, with a cartoon-patterned gauze taped to his forehead.

    Qi Jiejie guessed that Xi Xingyu posted it for him.

    “Sit down.” Qu Mingluo said in a calm voice without raising his head.

    Qi Jiejie sat down on the chair opposite, then put the report materials on the table, pressed the corner of the paper with his fingertips and pushed it forward an inch.

    Qu Mingluo finally raised his eyes, his eyes passing over the tooth mark on the back of his hand. At present, the mark had disappeared.

    “Routine report.” Qi Jiezuo said, summarizing what he did last week.

    He spoke businesslikely, as if there was no connection between him and Qu Mingluo.

    Qu Mingluo took the document, without reading the content, and asked first, “Do you know why I called you here?”

    “Sister Lin said that Mr. Qu wants to see if the bait is still alive.”

    Qu Mingluo’s fingers paused while turning the page.

    Qi Jiejue immediately added: “This is a joke.”

    “It’s not funny.” These three words Qu Mingluo had exactly the same tone as when he said “It’s not funny” that day.

    Qi Jiejie pursed his lips, feeling that what Mr. Qu said was really…

    Extremely indifferent.

    “Then is there any other action taken by the spy’s company?”

    “Yes, but I have cooperated with the police to complete the record.” Qu Mingluo said, “You don’t have to worry.”

    “Mr. Qu, can I ask something I shouldn’t ask?” Qi Jiejue said, “Please.”

    “Tell me.” Qu Mingluo said casually.

    “Did I really get into Hengxin based on my ability?” Qi Jiejue asked him.

    “You don’t look at me when it comes to recruiting. Your boss looks at it and thinks you can do it.” Qu Mingluo told him, “You don’t have to worry about being fired for the report you submitted. Do you have any problems?”

    “Does this mean you are satisfied with my report?” Qi Jiejue looked at him expectantly.

    “Yes, you can go down.”

    “Okay!” Qi Jiexue said, “Thank you, Mr. Qu.”

    Qi Jiejie stood up, pushed the chair back to its original position, turned and walked towards the door.

    “Wait.”

    Qu Mingluo’s voice came from behind, and Qi Jiejie stopped, a little at a loss.

    “Come to Haijingwan on Friday night.” Qu Mingluo said.

    Qi Jiejue turned around and said, “I went there myself. What does Mr. Qu mean?”

    Qu Mingluo finally raised his head, and his eyes fell on Qi Jiejue’s face, staying a little longer than before.

    “Xiaoxing’s parents are on a business trip.” He said in a calm tone, “I always go over to see him.”

    Qi Jie was stunned for a moment, and then nodded. Qu Mingluo didn’t come to him specifically, it was just a normal tutoring arrangement, so there was nothing to worry about.

    “I know.” Qi Jiejue said, “Xiaoxing told me last week. He also said that his parents are very busy at work.”

    Qu Mingluo tapped his fingers on the edge of the document, as if he was considering something.

    “Now that you know this, do you know what else he said to me?”

    “Xiaoxing knows that we have met?” Qi Jiejie asked him.

    “Yes.” Qu Mingluo said briefly, “He asked me to ask you if you want to live there. I can take you to work with me.”

    Qi Jiejue felt that his heart beat suddenly became faster.

    Looking at the cartoon gauze on Qu Mingluo’s side face and forehead, the gauze was half covered by her hair at this moment. The exposed part looked a bit funny and was incompatible with Qu Mingluo’s cold temperament.

    But it can also be clearly felt that this is indeed the handiwork of a child.

    There was no need for Qu Mingluo to lie to him.

    “Is it Xiaoxing’s request that you can drop me off when I go to work?” Qi Jiejue said his doubts.

    Qu Mingluo paused in turning the pages.

    “Is there any difference?”

    “Yes.” Qi Jiejue said, “Xiao Xing doesn’t like to cause trouble for others. If he said it, he probably really needs me, but if not…”

    He paused and didn’t finish.

    Qu Mingluo looked up at him, with a bottomless look in his eyes: “What if not?”

    Qi Jiejue laughed, then put his hands on the table and leaned over to look at Qu Mingluo: “Then I want to ask, in what capacity does Mr. Qu invite me?”

    Qu Mingluo’s eyes flashed across his face and quickly moved away as if he had been burned.

    “Of course he is the employer.” Qu Mingluo said, “His parents are not at home. I am looking for someone who can look after him.”

    “How much do you plan to pay me, Mr. Qu?” Qi Jiejie’s eyes were full of desire for money.

    “Three times your original class fee will be deducted from my account without going through Xiaoxing’s parents, nor will it be sent to you along with your salary.” Qu Mingluo discussed with him.

    “My charges are not low originally.” Qi Jiejie said, “But if you ask, you have to increase the price.”

    Qu Mingluo finally looked at him squarely, his brows furrowed slightly, as if to judge whether he was serious.

    “That’s five times.” Qu Mingluo rang for a moment, then said, “You can move today, there’s no need to meet on Friday.”

    “Deal.” Qi Jiejue said, “I knew Mr. Qu had the ability to make money.”

    “Go down.” Qu Mingluo said, “See you in the evening.”

    “Mr. Qu, although I know you asked me to go downstairs, these words really sound like what you said to the little eunuch.”

    “Then what am I?” Qu Mingluo asked him.

    “Of course it’s the emperor.” Qi Jiejue said, “As you say, there is a person who is very demanding and very demanding, and there is another person who is called a tyrant.”

    Qu Mingluo snorted coldly: “Is this how you see me?”

    Qi Jiejie thought for a moment, and then asked him: “It shouldn’t be so bad, right?”

    “Go down.” Qu Mingluo spoke again.

    Qi Jiejie responded with a smile.

    Qi Jiejie walked out of the twenty-eighth floor. The moment the elevator door closed, he leaned against the metal wall and looked at the red tips of his ears in the mirror.

    Five times the tuition fee will be charged to Qu Mingluo’s private account, without having to go through Xiaoxing’s parents.

    What does this mean?

    This means that this is Qu Mingluo’s personal invitation, not the employment of the Xi family, not the company’s arrangement, but Qu Mingluo himself, who wants him to live in Seaview Bay.
