On the rewards for successfully defeating a boss

"Then who is this..." Chi Yuxing let out the end of his words, his eyebrows raised casually. He raised his hand to signal Chen Qian to stop talking, "Don't say anything yet, let me guess... It must be your famous partner."

"Yes, this is Zhong Yi." Chen Qian nodded, then turned to Zhong Yi, pointed at Chi Yuxing and introduced him: "This is Chi Yuxing, a gangster."

"Thug? Don't try to discredit my noble status like that." Chi Yuxing repeated the word, his tone slightly raised. Then, he extended his hand to Zhong Yi seriously and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. I have to be a boss after all."

Zhong Yi nodded, his manners driving him to raise his hand and shake Chi Yuxing's, saying calmly, "Hello."

Chi Yuxing just came to say hello and to annoy someone who had already gone downstairs.

He deliberately moved closer before quietly complaining to Chen Qian, "I still have to face the hypocrisy of that group of people on my brother's behalf."

Then he drank his glass of champagne and raised it, "Then I'll be leaving first. Have fun, both of you. Enjoy yourself."

Chen Qian had something to say but didn't have time to ask, as it was still stuck in his throat. He could only watch him leave until he was surrounded by a group of people again, then he looked away.

He wanted to know what the complaint meant.

Did Chi Mu come or not?

After a while, the sound of the piano music in the banquet hall faded away, and a host came to the stage and announced the program in a vivid voice.

Chen Qian had no intention of listening to what the host was saying. He was just wandering around to see if there was anything to eat, and by the way, waiting for the so-called Mr. Wu to come and meet them, and by the way, to see if there was anyone he wanted to meet.

Mr. Wu arrived slowly, but the party heated up quickly.

Chen Qian only noticed that someone came into the venue and instantly ignited the atmosphere, but he didn't know who it was.

The scattered crowd suddenly had a direction, and like carp in a pond surrounding a place where bread crumbs were scattered, they gathered towards a certain place, making it even more difficult for him to see clearly.

"Who's here?" Chen Qian poked Zhong Yi beside him and asked him.

"I don't know." Zhong Yi answered him while patting the place where he was poked.

"Who else could it be? My brother." Chi Yuxing took it out from somewhere again, calling her affectionately, and put his arms on her shoulders.

Chen Qian's body stiffened at his sudden action, but then immediately relaxed.

So you're here.

The curious question was answered, but my mood became complicated.

"When will you be able to be on good terms with him?" Chen Qian suppressed his emotions and teasingly moved Chi Yuxing's arm away.

"Of course—not yet."

When the crowd parted, Chen Qian and Chi Yuxing were tormenting Zhong Yi.

Chi Yuxing said that this person was quite interesting, like a piece of wood, not saying a word for most of the day.

Chen Qian said: You are right.

Chen Qian was polite and just pulled him aside to attack him verbally.

Chi Yuxing has no manners and no boundaries, he just touches people.

Zhong Yi was annoyed and blocked the hand that was about to reach out to his face. He grabbed Chen Qian, whom he couldn't leave behind, and moved to another corner.

That was how Chen Qian turned around and watched without reservation the cold-faced Chi Mu in a well-dressed suit in the middle of the crowd, and the elegant woman in a red dress who was holding his arm and who was standing beside him.

Chen Qian's footsteps froze in place, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

In a very short time, he re-examined his impulsive decision to return to China and found that there was a huge loophole in this plan.

In the past, he had read hundreds of news articles and countless pictures when he was alone.

But perhaps thanks to the power of the Shi and Chi families, he has never seen the two of them in the same frame.

Naturally, he hadn't prepared for this.

He knew very well that some things were actually very pale when only relying on textual association, which was why Zhong Yi needed Chen Qian as his partner.

Some things can only be killed when you see them with your own eyes, killing the excuses you made for him subconsciously.

……

"Your little baby is looking at us." Shi Xixi met the dazed eyes from afar and smiled playfully. The look in her eyes was exactly the same as Chi Mu's just now.

The next second, someone blocked his view.

"Don't stare at him like that." Chi Mu's irritable warning was almost heard by her ears.

"How petty, but you're so close to me, aren't you afraid he'll get jealous?"

"Don't worry about that. I was just worried about the mayor coming and how to greet him properly."
