Pyramid Hanging Upside Down Chapter 8
byChapter 8
Qi Feiluan realized that he had accidentally angered Ji Xingyuan, but he had no time to think about anything else.
He felt like he was being eaten by a ferocious beast. Ji Xingyuan acted more violently and manically than yesterday.
The next day, when Qi Feiluan was woken up by his alarm clock, he felt that he was about to fall apart.
When he showered and washed in the morning, Qi Feiluan saw hickeys and fingerprints all over his body. The fingerprints on his inner thighs were the heaviest. It looked like he had two leg rings on him.
livestock.
Qi Feiluan cursed in his heart and felt a headache at the same time.
He originally wanted to mention to Ji Xingyuan that he wanted to go home to spend time with his parents on New Year’s Day and New Year’s Day.
Forget it, wait until Ji Xingyuan’s susceptible period is over.
During the susceptible period, Alpha was both in heat and crazy.
After washing up, Qi Feiluan put on a turtleneck sweater and red-eyed uniform, and the person in the mirror immediately returned to his usual appearance.
When Qi Feiluan walked downstairs to the restaurant, Ji Xingyuan was already sitting there. He was also wearing a black suit. His appearance was impeccable, and there was no telling what he had done last night.
Qi Feiluan walked over and sat down to eat the breakfast prepared by the butler and servants with Ji Xingyuan. Then they walked out of the manor and took a ride to Jijia Building. They entered the elevator of Jijia Building, one went to the 33rd floor and the other went to the president’s office on the top floor.
No matter what happened at night, they would not reveal anything during the day, and the relationship between the two quickly changed back to the way they got along during the day.
The next morning, Ji Xingyuan received a call from Mr. Zhao. On the phone, Zhao Shixuan’s father kept condemning Qi Feiluan’s shooting. The implicit meaning in his words was that he expected Ji Xingyuan to punish Qi Feiluan.
Ji Xingyuan put the phone aside after hearing a few words.
Mr. Zhao spoke so hard that his mouth went dry, but Ji Xingyuan didn’t reply a word. His voice became more and more frail, and finally he laughed twice and said: “Although Xiao Qi was too cruel, they agreed to bear the consequences of their injuries after all…”
Ji Xingyuan then replied: “As long as you understand.”
Mr. Zhao didn’t know Ji Xingyuan’s attitude when he got here, and knew that his son’s five shots were in vain.
Ji Xingyuan and Qi Feiluan were both newly appointed, and his son was caught in the crossfire. If Ji Xingyuan had to punish Qi Feiluan at this time, he would have fallen out with Ji Xingyuan.
Mr. Zhao couldn’t help but secretly scold his son for being stupid, but he could only admit it.
Ji Xingyuan spent almost no time during the day dealing with the work of the Ji family he had just taken over, the most important of which was the meeting of leaders held on the 31st.
The heads of various industry branches involved in the behemoth Ji family were notified 10 days in advance, requiring them to return to the capital on the 31st to report on their work.
Before the 31st, there was also a video conference with the mine leaders on the 28th.
The most fundamental industry of the Ji family is crystal mining. Crystal is currently the main energy source that replaces fossil fuels. The group controlled by the Ji family and Grantham broke out in the early stages of planetary crystal mining, swallowed up other energy companies, and became the only two giant oligarchs.
The mining area is located on a planet close to the earth. Although interplanetary flight has gradually matured, each manned flight consumes a lot of time and materials. This makes the exchanges between the planet and the earth less frequent, let alone universal.
Therefore, the person in charge of the mining area cannot return to the capital this year to report on their work, and the operation of the mining area does not allow them to leave for too long, so meetings can only be held through video.
Moreover, Ji Xingyuan also understands that the planetary environment is harsh, and the temperature there is equivalent to the earth’s winter all year round. Except for water, which does not need to be transported, other basic necessities for food, clothing, housing and transportation need to be transported from the earth. In terms of enjoyment, it is not as good as staying on the earth.
Therefore, those who actually hold shares and actually control the mining area on the Ji family’s side are all on Earth, and most of those who stay in the mining area are the second-in-commands of various big bosses.
At the same time, Qi Feiluan received information about the participants on the 31st from Ren Yan.
After seeing the information sent by Ren Yan, even Qi Feiluan had to sigh at Ren Yan’s working ability.
In the information age, Ren Yan and his team of top technicians can dig up a person’s birth information all the way to what they did yesterday.
Qi Feiluan is also constantly integrating and training Hongtong. His and Hongtong’s task is to grasp the whereabouts and residences of the participants with the assistance of Ren Yan. If these people do not want to come to the meeting on the 31st, Qi Feiluan and Hongtong will be responsible for inviting them.
During the day, Ji Xingyuan and Qi Feiluan worked almost non-stop. When they returned home at night, Ji Xingyuan also tormented Qi Feiluan.
These days, Qi Feiluan was holding analysis meetings with Hongtong’s captains to analyze the information sent by Ren Yan. The captains looked at Qi Feiluan more and more strangely.
Originally, after Qi Feiluan fired five shots at Zhao Shixuan on the 22nd, they were all waiting to see if Qi Feiluan would be punished.
Although he said that he was not responsible for his life or death, Zhao Shixuan was Mr. Zhao’s son after all, and there was no guarantee that Mr. Zhao would not file a complaint against Mr. Ji.
As a result, Qi Feiluan never received any verbal reprimand, let alone punishment.
Qi Feiluan always carries strong Alpha pheromones.
Ji Xingyuan’s pheromone smell is not a secret. People with red eyes are well-informed, and soon everyone understands who the pheromone smell on Qi Feiluan’s body belongs to.
But Qi Feiluan had no intention of covering up his relationship with Ji Xingyuan, and the pheromones even tended to become more and more concentrated.
The leader is deeply trusted by Mr. Ji, which is of course a good thing, but being too trusted makes it difficult for subordinates like them to adapt for a while.
Ji Xingyuan is the top Alpha, and the red-eyed captains are also Alphas. During the meeting, they smelled Mr. Ji’s Alpha scent on Qi Feiluan, and they were on pins and needles.
However, over the past five or six days, the red-eyed captains’ feelings gradually changed from weird to numb.
…
On the 27th, it was also the last night of Ji Xingyuan’s susceptible period. This time Ji Xingyuan did not torment Qi Feiluan.
Ji Xingyuan was lying on the bed with Qi Feiluan in his arms. The warmth of another person came from the place where the skin was touching, and the feeling of being filled tightly in his arms gave people an addictive sense of satisfaction.
Ji Xingyuan had fallen into a deep sleep, while Qi Feiluan was still awake.
Tomorrow, he would tell Ji Xingyuan that he wanted to go home on New Year’s Day.
I wonder if the two of them could still get along with each other so quietly and peacefully at that time.
Qi Feiluan closed his eyes, listened to Ji Xingyuan’s regular breathing, and gradually cleared his mind.
…
On the evening of the 28th, Ji Xingyuan returned to the office after finishing the meeting with the person in charge of the mining area. As soon as the door opened, he saw Qi Feiluan waiting inside.
Ji Xingyuan’s tense mind suddenly relaxed when he saw Qi Feiluan sitting on the sofa waiting for him quietly.
Qi Feiluan is like this, always by his side, always waiting for him.
Qi Feiluan stood up when he saw Ji Xingyuan walking towards her, but when he wanted to put his hand around his waist, he took two steps aside to avoid his hand, and then expressed his intention: “There are still three days until New Year’s Day, and next year will be a new beginning. There are three days of New Year’s Day statutory holiday, and I will go home to spend it with my parents.”
Ji Xingyuan saw Qi Feiluan waiting for him to relax and immediately disappeared. He looked at Qi Feiluan sharply and said, “My schedule is synchronized with yours. There will be a dinner on New Year’s Day night.”
Of course Qi Feiluan knew that there were dinners, dinners, dinners, all kinds of dinners. People of Ji Xingyuan’s status had to attend countless dinners. They were either dinners held by a certain company, business dinners, charity dinners, or dinners that had no reason but were always held on every important holiday.
Most of the time, before Ji Xingyuan took over the Ji family, he was Ji Xingyuan’s bodyguard. In fact, he was the backdrop for him most of the time, and he would accompany him to almost all dinners.
But now Qi Feiluan doesn’t want to think about it anymore. This is different from the previous dinner hosted by Ji Xingyuan. That dinner was hosted by the Ji family to announce the new head of the family to the capital, so retainers of the Ji family like Father Qi will also attend.But the New Year’s Day dinner is purely a social occasion for the upper class, and Qi’s father will not attend.
Qi Feiluan didn’t want to attend anymore. Even if he worked for Ji Xingyuan day and night, he had his own family after all, and he needed to go back to accompany his parents during the holidays.
“I will arrange your security work for the three days of New Year’s Day. Please rest assured of my ability to work. It is my job responsibility to ensure your safety.”
Ji Xingyuan didn’t even realize that after hearing Qi Feiluan’s words, he almost immediately entered the fighting state at work. But after hearing Qi Feiluan’s words, he wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it seriously, he couldn’t think of a reason to refuse.
All other staff members of the Jijia Group can enjoy the statutory three-day New Year’s Day holiday, and Qi Feiluan can naturally do the same. His security does not rely on Qi Feiluan alone. Qi Feiluan only needs to arrange for Hongtong personnel to accompany him for protection.
Reason told Ji Xingyuan that this was normal, but his first reaction was still to reject the proposal.
“Work responsibilities?” Ji Xingyuan repeated the last four words, realizing that the distance between him and Qi Feiluan had widened again.
Ji Xingyuan immediately remembered that during the previous susceptible period, Qi Feiluan mentioned Mu He’an. He originally thought that Qi Feiluan was jealous, but now that he was connected with Qi Feiluan’s application, he found that Qi Feiluan was simply trying to push himself to others.
Trying to push his susceptible period to others, suggesting that he use inhibitors in a business-like tone, and then not accompanying him to attend New Year’s Day, and what happens after that?
Qi Feiluan was going to leave him again, exclude herself from his life, and live a life without herself?
Qi Feiluan was trying to define the relationship between them as a superior and a subordinate. Compared to the last time, Qi Feiluan’s method this time was gentler and more calm.
But Ji Xingyuan is still keenly aware of this.
Work responsibilities, are they actually talking about work responsibilities?
Ji Xingyuan didn’t understand what went wrong. The last time Qi Feiluan wanted to leave him, it was Ji’s father who instigated him. Now that Ji’s father is dead, he has taken control of the Ji family. From then on, no other force can separate Qi Feiluan from him.
But now, it was Qi Feiluan who began to distance himself from herself, once again.
Ji Xingyuan felt that his head began to hurt again due to the high-intensity work during this period, so he stared at Qi Feiluan with an extremely penetrating gaze and asked, “Are you sure?”
