Pyramid Hanging Upside Down Chapter 44

Chapter 44

Qi Feiluan felt even more that the person in front of him was a madman.

According to Grantham’s logic, if Ji Xingyuan loves him, then once Ji Xingyuan’s revenge plan succeeds, it is possible to kill him together, which will make Ji Xingyuan extremely painful.For Grantham, even if he died, he had still completed another revenge on Ji Xingyuan.

However, if Ji Xingyuan really loved him and would regret his death, wouldn’t Ji Xingyuan give up his revenge plan and wait for another time when the news first revealed that Qi Feiluan was in charge of wedding security?

Therefore, Grantham was basically gambling with his own life, Mu Hean’s life and Qi Feiluan’s life on the possibility of making Ji Xingyuan regretful.

What is this if not crazy?

When Grantham was sizing him up just as he entered the door, he was also sizing up Grantham.

At that time, he felt that there was something wrong with Grantham compared to the one he had met at the engagement party.

Now Qi Feiluan felt it. Grantham gave him an extremely depressed feeling, and his calm appearance seemed to be a disguise.

Qi Feiluan had felt this feeling before Ji Xingyuan was about to go crazy four years ago.

Taking such a big risk with his own wedding, Qi Feiluan even felt that Grantham had a faint tendency to destroy, x He seemed to really want to see the outcome of three deaths and one person surviving.

I don’t know what Mu Hean did to make Grantham have such a crazy idea.

But Qi Feiluan would not accompany him to go crazy.

“Sir, I have to point out two issues.”

“First, Mr. Ji doesn’t care about me that much. Your plan to bury me will not hurt him at all. Ji Taizhen disappeared so quickly not because of me, but because he participated in the plan to assassinate Mr. Ji. You also said that people like you would choose to repay Ji Taizhen a thousand times a hundred times. Mr. Ji obviously wanted to retaliate against Ji Taizhen for himself, not for me.

What’s more, as the person in charge of Hongtong, I put Mr. Ji in danger, did not notice in advance the spy planted by Ji Taizhen in Hongtong, and lost half of his leg.Mr. Ji thought I was doing something bad and suspended me.If he really loved me and cared about me, would he have kicked me out of Ji’s Manor after losing half my leg, and then suspended me and left?

Besides, don’t say he didn’t know he was responsible for the security of your wedding. Even if he knew, would he give up his revenge plan?If he really takes this opportunity to retaliate successfully, then he can take the opportunity to annex the leaderless Grantham Group.Do you think people like Ji Xingyuan, when faced with the huge benefits of annexing their biggest competitors and achieving a monopoly, would stop for the sake of mere security?”

Qi Feiluan’s words are reasonable and well-founded.

Indeed, Ji Taizhen’s ‘disappearance’ can be said to be Ji Xingyuan’s revenge for Qi Feiluan, but as a direct victim, Ji Xingyuan can also be said to be revenge for himself.

After Qi Feiluan was injured, he immediately moved out of the Ji family, and was subsequently suspended from his job, forcing him to work as a mercenary…

“You said he didn’t care about you, but did you ever go on a date at Cloud Tower?” Grantham asked suspiciously.

Qi Feiluan was not surprised that Grantham knew about this matter. After all, the matter of taking the Skytrain and booking the restaurant could be easily traced.

Grantham could look up the itinerary, but there was no way he knew the details.

Qi Feiluan didn’t want to be an intermediary in the struggle between Grantham and Ji Xingyuan, but if he tried to deny it, it would be easy for Grantham to spot the clues, so he said calmly: “I just came here as a security guard. I once again made Mr. Ji dissatisfied during his meal, so I even lost my job and was suspended.”

Grantham was obviously doubtful, and Qi Feiluan also took the opportunity to ask: “I don’t know who gave you the information to make you think that I am very important to Mr. Ji. But I am just a security guard, and maybe a bed warmer. I don’t know why you have such misunderstandings and illusions.”

Grantham didn’t speak, and Qi Feiluan just nodded.

Qi Feiluan actually already had an answer in his mind as to who told Grantham. It was none other than Mu Hean. Only he who had pretended to be a couple with Ji Xingyuan could detect the difference between Ji Xingyuan and Qi Feiluan.

Although Mu Hean cooperated with Ji Xingyuan, both Ji Xingyuan and Qi Feiluan knew that this cooperation was not completely trustworthy.

People like Mu Hean rely on playing both sides to benefit themselves, and their own interests are what they value most.He can cooperate with Ji Xingyuan to spy on Grantham, or he can betray Ji Xingyuan in order to win Grantham’s trust and sincere use.

Now that Grantham has doubts, it proves that his understanding of himself has been shaken.

Qi Feiluan also knew that people like Grantham were skeptical about everything, and it was impossible for him to completely believe in some people and some things.

Qi Feiluan did not continue to provoke, and continued what he said before: “The second question is, as an employer, you issued a mission, and as a mercenary, I don’t have to accept this mission.”

Grantham clasped his knee with one hand and said, “You don’t think you have a choice, do you?”

Qi Feiluan said calmly: “I’m not that naive, so I don’t come alone this time.”

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.

Grantham suddenly smiled and said, “But your parents should still stay in the capital.”

Qi Feiluan’s eyelashes trembled, and he knew it.If he were alone, he would naturally have nothing to fear, but he still had his parents in the capital.

“My father still works for Mr. Ji in the Jijia Group. If he touches them, he will alert Mr. Ji.”

Qi Feiluan didn’t want to directly confront Grantham. After expressing his attitude, he relaxed and said: “Mr. Ji doesn’t care about me. I don’t want to be a victim involved in the confrontation between you and Mr. Ji. I will take over the task of protecting Mr. Ji’s wedding, but I hope that I will not have anything to do with you from now on.”

After weighing it, Grantham said: “He doesn’t care about you. It doesn’t matter what anyone says, only actions. I sent a wedding invitation to Ji Xingyuan before, and his reply to me was, ‘I won’t attend your wedding, but I will go to your funeral on time.’ Haha.”

“Well, since you agreed to accept the task this time, I will send him another invitation and include the news that you are responsible for the security of the wedding. If he still doesn’t come, it proves that he really doesn’t care about you. We have to pay attention to whether he will arrange revenge on the wedding day; if he comes…”

Grantham said nothing further meaningfully, but Qi Feiluan shuddered.

If Ji Xingyuan came and his attitude changed before and after, it would prove that he came to Grantham’s wedding because of Qi Feiluan.Putting aside the possibility of revenge, this shows that he especially cares about Qi Feiluan. What Qi Feiluan just said to Grantham, including the provocative words, are all nonsense.

And since Ji Xingyuan cares about Qi Feiluan to this extent, Grantham’s control of Qi Feiluan will undoubtedly give him an important bargaining chip against Ji Xingyuan.

Grantham changed his crazy idea, obviously because he had a more pleasurable bet, betting on whether Ji Xingyuan would come to the wedding for Qi Feiluan.

The conversation ended here. Grantham asked the waiter to turn off the signal jammer and said: “Since you have accepted the task, don’t leave my control before the wedding is over. Go and communicate with the people who followed you.”

Qi Feiluan nodded and sent a message to the mercenary team to explain the situation. At the same time, he also sent the mercenary team an accompanying mercenary task: to secretly protect his safety in the next period of time and lead him to break out from Grantham’s control if necessary.

The captain didn’t say much and only replied with the word “accept”.

Qi Feiluan was relieved.

This mercenary team is his trump card.

If Ji Xingyuan really comes to Grantham’s wedding and makes Grantham realize that he actually cares about him so much, then Qi Feiluan must find a way to save himself. He must not become a hostage bargaining chip used by Grantham to threaten Ji Xingyuan.

…

Grantham’s wedding is scheduled to take place on September 23.

Qi Feiluan has been under Grantham’s control for more than half a month. Although he knew that Ji Xingyuan’s revenge on Grantham was most likely related to Mu He’an, and even Mu He’an took it upon himself, he still had to pretend to do his best to eliminate loopholes in the wedding’s security.

The wedding venue was set to be held at the largest church in the capital. Although neither of the newlyweds held the wedding was religious, and although weddings were held in various ways nowadays, due to the “tradition” and “solemnity” of the upper class, the wedding was still held in the church. The process was the same as before.

Qi Feiluan changed into a formal dress, pretending that she was just an ordinary guest who had been invited to attend the ceremony, and sat among the guests next to the aisle.

In front of him, sat relatives and friends of Mu Hean and Grantham, as well as various business and political celebrities. They were the kind of “big shots” who even if they couldn’t recognize their names, they would feel familiar if they paid a little attention to the news.

Qi Feiluan sat inconspicuously between them and did not attract anyone’s attention at all.

Before the couple arrived, all the attention at the wedding scene was on Mu’s father.

The congressman has been sitting on the bench recently and has been ostracized by his colleagues.How could a person like Mu Fu not know the reason? He knew it must be related to his good son.

Mu Hean first had a relationship with Ji Xingyuan’s father, Ji Tailin, then almost married Ji Xingyuan, and then got engaged to Grantham.

Mu’s father endured being ostracized and kept hearing all kinds of rumors, but he couldn’t get angry.

Now, what shocked everyone was that Mu Hean was actually going to marry Grantham.

The meaning was different. Mu’s father had been ostracized and suppressed because of Ji Xingyuan’s indifference, but if he got Grantham’s support, he might become a prominent figure.

The big shots who were invited kept chatting with Mu’s father, whether they were teasing, flattering, or sarcastic.

The most distressing thing for Mu’s father was that these big shots talked to him entirely because of his son Mu He’an.

Mu’s father was a little vain, and felt as disgusting as if there was a thorn in his throat.

Qi Feiluan was not interested in what was happening in the front row. He focused all his attention on the tablet in his hand that showed the route of the wedding convoy.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the convoy arriving safely outside the church.

Nothing happened on the way. Mu Hean and Grantham appeared at the door of the church. The auditorium suddenly fell silent, and everyone’s eyes turned to the two.
