Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

The air was silent for a few seconds, but the sound of the phone vibrating was urgent.

Jiang Xiyu suppressed her coldness, smiled slightly, and the curve of her lips revealed a nonchalant attitude: "Okay."

Zhou Xi stared into his eyes and, seeing that he really didn't care about the call, put the phone back on the table.

Jiang Xiyu walked over, ignoring the still-vibrating phone, and handed the lighter to Zhou Xi.

Zhou Xi didn't intend to take over. Instead, he held a cigarette in his mouth, tilted his head slightly, and raised his eyes to signal Jiang Xiyu to light it for him.

With a "ding," the lighter was turned on.

When Jiang Xiyu raised his hand, bent down, and looked down at people, the sense of oppression and aggression from his superior position was very strong.

Few people could be in such a superior position in front of Zhou Xi. In the past, people in front of him either fawned over him or flattered him. Only Jiang Xiyu could look at him like this, or rather, dared to look at him like this.

Zhou Xi, who usually looked down on others, suddenly felt a sense of looking up at the person in front of him, as if he were looking up at a wisp of wind that he could not grasp.

This breeze stirred his desire to conquer, yet time and again it left his emotions with nowhere to be expressed, until finally it became so intense that he could barely contain himself.

I always thought that if I just endured it a little longer, it would be fine.

As a result, people kept coming and going around him.

Last time it was Xu Yunzhi, who will it be next time?

While he was thinking, the moment he met the gaze of the person in front of him, Zhou Xi reached out and grabbed Jiang Xiyu's wrist as if possessed.

Jiang Xiyu paused in her hand as she lit the fire for him, but didn't pull away. Her gaze deepened as she asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Xi rubbed his jaw for a few seconds, then suddenly seemed to lose control for a moment, saying in a joking manner, "How about we play a game? Jiang Xiyu."

He hadn't really thought much when he said those words, but once they were out, there was something else hidden in his words besides the probing. However, that emotion was far too insignificant in the face of his desire to conquer, so much so that Jiang Xiyu only saw a repulsive desire in him.

Jiang Xiyu found it quite funny, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he chuckled, "Brother Zhou, what are you saying? Haven't I been playing with you all along?"

“We’ve been friends since our high school days.”

As Jiang Xiyu spoke, she moved her wrist and broke free from Zhou Xi's grasp.

"I've always considered you my brother. After all, without you, I wouldn't be who I am today."

He followed the rich kid he had saved into this circle, only to realize that there are always people more capable than you. The rich kid later disappeared, and Zhou Xi became his new employer.

Zhou Xi's background is not simply innocent; Jiang Xiyu is his biggest bargaining chip in many dangerous underground activities.

In the end, Jiang Xiyu was just a source of amusement for wealthy young men in the early stages. The reason he was able to openly associate with them later was simply because he used his abilities to gain the right to move from the underground to the surface.

Zhou Xi sensed the evasiveness in Jiang Xiyu's words, smiled without much surprise, and ultimately said nothing.

He took a drag of his cigarette, suppressing the madness in his heart, and after a long while, he exhaled and said, "Well said."

Jiang Xiyu picked up her phone from the coffee table and sat down on the single sofa next to it.

After unlocking, he discovered that the call was from Lu Ziqi, so he dialed it back in front of Zhou Xi.

Voice calls are answered almost instantly. As soon as Jiang Xiyu put his phone on the table, Lu Ziqi's voice came through immediately: "Brother!"

The moment the voice rang out, Jiang Xiyu didn't miss the fleeting look of disgust in Zhou Xi's eyes.

Therefore, Jiang Xiyu's light laughter almost overflowed from her throat as she leisurely asked, "What is it?"

Lu Ziqi couldn't wait to play with him, so he said directly, "Brother, let's log in and play a couple of rounds now."

Jiang Xiyu glanced at Zhou Xi.

The fake smile on Zhou Xi's lips vanished instantly.

Jiang Xiyu declined, saying, "I'm busy right now."

Lu Ziqi's tone noticeably lowered: "Ah, when are you free, bro?"

Jiang Xiyu casually said, "Tonight."

Lu Ziqi was satisfied and smiled, saying, "Okay, brother, I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xi put out his cigarette, looked at Jiang Xiyu, and smiled meaningfully: "Your relationship with Lu Ziqi seems to be getting better and better."

Jiang Xiyu pressed her fingertips against her forehead, tilted her head to look at him upon hearing this, and scoffed, "Just an immature young master."

That's absolutely right.

Lu Ziqi is very naive in many ways.

He was just a spoiled child, and Jiang Xiyu looked at him no differently than she would a younger brother.

Zhou Xi didn't see any other meaning in Jiang Xiyu's eyes. Perhaps he had rarely seen that emotion called desire in Jiang Xiyu's eyes. So, after a moment of contemplation, he asked again, "Then, what about Bai Chengci?"

He sat there with an air of absolute superiority, scrutinizing Jiang Xiyu with a critical gaze. His tone was calm with a hint of amusement, but the hidden danger was almost palpable: "I think he and you have been getting a little too close lately."

Jiang Xiyu's brow twitched slightly at the probing tone, and within seconds he could guess Zhou Xi's thoughts. He guessed that the little green tea hadn't hidden herself well at the Firmo club, and that's why he'd discovered her.

Jiang Xiyu felt rather helpless, and her tone even had a hint of cursing: "That bot?"

Zhou Xi was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting him to describe Bai Chengci in that way.

Jiang Xiyu smiled, touched her cheek with the tip of her tongue, and gave a rather malicious comment: "She's a weirdo."

Zhou Xi: "What?"

Jiang Xiyu thought for a moment, then said with a smirk, "He's quite the pretentious guy. If I weren't afraid to offend him, I'd really like to beat him up."

This was the first time Zhou Xi had heard someone comment on Bai Chengci like this, especially since it was Jiang Xiyu. The sharpness in his eyes immediately faded, and he asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did you have a grudge against him?"

Jiang Xiyu shrugged and said casually, "How could I dare? What kind of person is he?"

Seeing that the agitation in his words was genuine, Zhou Xi remained silent for a while, then breathed a sigh of relief and regained some composure on her face. She advised, "Try to stay away from him. He's not one of us."

Merchants don't fight with officials; he wouldn't even dare to confront Bai Chengci head-on, let alone Jiang Xiyu, who has no background whatsoever.

Jiang Xiyu hummed in response, her expression languid, as if she had listened, yet also as if she hadn't.

Zhou Xi gave a few more instructions, which Jiang Xiyu responded to.

Zhou Xi's words clearly conveyed a warning: he should stay away from Bai Chengci, as he was not someone to be trifled with.

Jiang Xiyu knew, of course, that Bai Chengci was not someone to be trifled with; she was like a piece of chewing gum that he couldn't shake off.

There's nothing he can do about it; he's already gotten himself into trouble.

Moreover, Jiang Xiyu also discerned a different meaning in Zhou Xi's words.

Bai Chengci's background seems to be something Zhou Xi is very wary of.

Just to keep him away from Bai Chengci, she carelessly exposed this weakness.

I don't know if Zhou Xi did it on purpose or what.

However, Jiang Xiyu was more inclined to believe the former, because many of the Zhou family's interests were indeed not easy to put on the surface, and Jiang Xiyu had been by Zhou Xi's side for several years and happened to know some of them.

He thought about it and realized that this little green tea bitch was at least a good trump card for him to get rid of Zhou Xi in the future.

Therefore, not only should they not stay away from each other, but they should also hang out together in private.

You have to be very close to them and have a deep friendship for it to work.
