On the rewards for successfully defeating a boss

"Why are you out? Aren't you usually stuck in the general manager's office at this hour?" Lin Xixi finished using the restroom and passed the corner of the stairs. She saw Chen Qian, tired from wandering around the hall, curled up on the ground like a mushroom. She flipped over her phone and saw it was only 9:30.

He squatted in the corner holding a water cup, his other hand browsing his phone, his voice a little angry: "Chen Tian is in there, they whispered that I was expelled."

"Huh? Then why are you squatting here pretending to be a mushroom?"

"I ate too much for breakfast, and my stomach is really full from sitting here. I want to walk around to digest the food and rest for a while when I'm tired." Chen Qian stood up and stomped his feet a few times. "Anyway, I have nothing to do, let's go to your room and join in the fun."

After kicking Chen Qian out of the office, Chi Mu and Chen Tian remained silent and no one spoke.

The folder on the table was spread out between the two of them. The A4 paper was densely covered with words, and a few photos were stuck in it with paper clips.

"As long as the problem is resolved, that's all." After a long while, Chen Tian spoke first, reaching out to take the folder and closing it. "Don't think too much. Isn't half a year almost up? You and Xiao Qian..."

"You think it's okay? Will Xiao Qian also think it's okay?

"Even if the person behind this incident might be someone from our family, do you still think this way?

"Chen Tian, ​​my uncle and aunt gave up everything for this, even going abroad to avoid the limelight." Chi Mu's expression was solemn, his brows furrowed. As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the blue folder.

He didn't dare look directly at Chen Tian.

Chen Tian also noticed that he started to feel strange after opening the folder. After careful consideration, he said, "No, I just photographed a small assistant meeting with a few shareholders. Chi Mu, you are taking this matter too seriously. I brought it to you not to put pressure on you, but I just thought you should know."

"Besides, my dad and uncle had wanted to quit a long time ago. They weren't forced to leave, they took the opportunity to keep me in my position and then ran away.

"Besides, the fact that things ended so smoothly wasn't my credit. It wouldn't have been possible without you. You also kicked out the few people who had ulterior motives from the Chen family. Judging from the results, the benefits outweighed the disadvantages.

"You are my friend, Xiao Qian is my brother. I haven't congratulated you on being together yet. Live happily. This has nothing to do with you." Chen Tian tapped the buckle lightly with his fingers on the folder. His tone was light, but his words came one after another like beads, leaving Chi Mu no chance to speak.

"Chen Tian..."

"You're almost out of the Chi family, so enjoy yourself from now on. I'm leaving first. I still have a lot of finishing work to do, so I can't be gone for too long." Chen Tian interrupted, putting the folder into his briefcase. The chair legs scraped against the tiles, making a sound. "Chi Mu, I'm leaving my brother in your care. He loves you to death, but you're not up to the mark at all. I'll help you with the family elders. I'll just consider it a favor."

Closing the door gently, Chen Tian walked out along the corridor.

His tense nerves finally relaxed, and everything was going in the right direction. He was thinking about what excuse he could use to trick his father and uncle back to help. The documents on his desk were like a mountain, and he couldn't even finish reading them. If he worked alone, he probably wouldn't be able to leave work on time for the next six months. His head started to hurt again.

Passing by the entrance of the planning department, the door was open and cool air from the air conditioner was coming out.

"Brother, are you leaving now? Aren't you going to have dinner together?" Chen Qian poked his head out and leaned against the door.

"Well, I have to go back to work. Who has as much free time as you? You know it's still a long time before dinner." Chen Tian wanted to knock him on the head, but halfway through, he opened his fist into a palm and rubbed his head.

"Wow, you really messed up my hairstyle!" Chen Qian quickly tidied up her messy hair.

"And the matter of you moving back home..." Chen Tian's hand was pulled away by Chen Qian, who put it back to his side, with helplessness in his words.

Chen Qian thought he was going to rush her, so she immediately replied, "I know, I know. I packed my luggage last night."

"You don't have to move back. You can continue to live in his house. I'm very busy lately and probably don't have time to pick you up." After saying that, Chen Tian raised his leg and continued to walk towards the elevator.

Chen Qian followed him closely, chattering non-stop, "Really? You've been away on business for half a month and have a new brother, so you left me behind, right? Chen Tian?"

"Ask your uncle and aunt if they're willing. I'm fine with anything." He stopped in front of the elevator and pressed the down arrow. "Besides, your partner looked like he was about to break up. I think it would be helpful for him if you went to accompany him."

"What did you say?" Chen Qian hadn't yet adapted to Chi Mu's new identity. He was stunned when he heard Chen Tian's words. After coming to his senses, he asked the slowly closing elevator door, "What's wrong, Brother Chi Mu?"

Through the gap in the metal door, Chen Tian didn't say anything, but suddenly lowered his head and laughed.

"What? It turns out that always working overtime will cause mental problems." The elevator began to descend, and Chen Qian was a little puzzled.

He hurried back to the office, hugging his arms and rubbing the goose bumps on his body, complaining that the people in the planning department were all ice people in the forest. The air conditioner was set to 16 degrees, which was like a cold storage. He was so cold that he had to stand at the door and alternate between cold and warm to feel better.

"Brother Chi Mu? I'm coming in." When he arrived at the dark door, Chen Qianxian reached out and knocked on the door. He lay on the door and listened for a while, but there was no movement.

"I'm coming in!" He repeated loudly again before he touched the handle. But before he could apply any force, the handle had already begun to turn downwards with his hand, "Huh? Ah!"

The door suddenly opened, and Chen Qian was caught off guard and jumped. His hand was still tightly gripping the handle, but the door suddenly pulled inward, and his feet tripped and tripped.

Ruined!

The good news is that although Chen Qian fell hard, he didn't feel any pain.

Bad news, he overpowered Chi Mu.

And when he smashed Chi Mu to the ground, there was a bang, so loud that it caused a commotion in other offices.

Chen Qian really wanted to dig a hole here and hide in it, especially when he heard someone rushing out and loudly asking if it was an earthquake...

"hiss--"

Chen Qian originally wanted to quickly turn over and get off Chi Mu, but he didn't know if he pressed on Chi Mu somewhere and made him cry out in pain, so he didn't dare to make any big movements and crawled to the floor carefully.

Would it be more helpful if I kowtowed and admitted my mistake now?

"What are you two doing on the ground?" Several people came out of the open door and looked in curiously. The leading observers were Lin Xixi and Yu Wangxi.

"Is it because the ground is cooler?"

"Is it because of the earthquake? There wasn't an earthquake. The idiot who yelled about an earthquake has been beaten. Please rest assured, Mr. Chi."
