flameout

Qi Peisheng had just finished the meeting when he received the call, and he was planning to have dinner in the staff canteen with the senior management of the branch.

Seeing the caller ID, he gestured to Zheng Chuxuan to arrange for everyone. He was a few steps behind, walked to the window next to the elevator and connected the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Qi, it's me, Xiaoyue." A familiar, slightly tense voice came from the other end of the phone.

Qi Peisheng's face seemed to soften a bit. Before Zheng Chuxuan walked into the restaurant, he heard his chairman say slowly, "Xiao Yue, what's the matter?"

The knuckles of Ji Yue's fingers holding the phone turned white, with bulging veins, and he whispered nervously: "I went to the company in the afternoon, and Bi Ran told me that the headquarters had issued an order. Is that what you mean?"

When Qi Peisheng heard the words, there was a touch of tenderness between his brows and eyes, and he slowly responded: "Oh, this is what I meant. Your file should have been transferred to the headquarters in the past two days. You can choose a time to report there."

Ji Yue's heart sank, he pursed the corners of his mouth, and his voice was tight: "But... I don't know, I don't even know what I'm going to do."

Qi Peisheng said lightly: "Come here and learn from Chu Xuan, share some of the burden for him, and be my assistant."

Assistant to the chairman.

What a scene.

However, the tense string in Ji Yue's heart slowly loosened, but it didn't seem like a stone fell to the ground, but more bitterness leaked out like a gate opened. He was still a little lucky, thinking that even if he got to the headquarters, it might be someone else. Now he almost understood what Qi Peisheng meant, and he wanted to bring him with him.

He is not Zheng Chuxuan, nor will he become Zheng Chuxuan, so what exactly is this new assistant who parachuted to Qi Peisheng's side?

Ji Yue exhaled tremblingly, closed his eyes, mustered up his courage and said in a dying struggle: "Mr. Qi, I don't want to change jobs. You... Didn't you also say before that I should choose my own life. "

After speaking, he almost held his breath and waited for the movement on the receiver. It took about four or five seconds before he heard Qi Peisheng's voice.

"reason."

The voice was still indifferent, but Ji Yue felt a bit of sudden anger from it, which made him clenched his lower lip for a while, and reluctantly said: "Zheng Zhu's talent is obvious to all, I'm afraid I can't even match one tenth of him, And I don't know the situation at the headquarters, so it's really hard to be competent in this position." Ji Yue closed his eyes, thinking that he would probably be criticized by others, and Qi Peisheng's reputation would be insulted. After a pause, Ji Yue said: "Mr. ,I can not do it."

After finishing speaking, Ji Yue clenched his lower lip and anxiously waited for an answer. However, his words could not convince Qi Peisheng. Qi Peisheng's eyes on the other side of the phone darkened slightly, but with more certainty, Xiao Yue It is normal to be depressed after losing a father, but to avoid accidents, it is better to watch in front of your eyes.Ji Yue's words made him more sure that his decision was correct.

Qi Peisheng was dissatisfied with Ji Yue's words, so his expression was a little serious. Even though his tone softened a little, he said sternly: "Ability can be cultivated. You have been in Guangyue for five years. It's time Growing up in a different environment, you are the one I picked, don’t you even have this bit of self-confidence?” After a pause, he spoke again, the meaning in his words didn’t give Ji Yue a chance to refuse, and he said seriously, almost as an order: “Be obedient, Report to Guangsheng Human Resources Department early tomorrow morning."

He said that Ji Yue should choose his own life, but he has to give him the right to choose, so Ji Yue can have it.

Ji Yue on the other end of the phone didn't say a word, and Qi Peisheng, who was busy with everything, didn't hang up the phone at this moment. He knew that Ji Yue was always obedient, and keeping silent meant acquiescing, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart. Qi Peisheng knew that a slap would be sweet. Jujube's truth, I don't mind coaxing the child at the moment, but although the tone is a bit softer, it still retains the majesty of the controller, and whispered: "Go home?"

Ji Yue was slightly taken aback, his voice prioritized his brain's response, and he even nodded subconsciously: "...I arrived at noon." After the words came out, he faintly felt grievances gushing out of his head like a gurgle.

"Hey, let Aunt He cook more food for you. If you want to rest, I will give you a few days off when I come back. Didn't you say before that you want to earn more money? This time I will give you a chance."

Ji Yue listened to Qi Peisheng's almost gentle voice on the phone. He clearly couldn't help being wronged, he couldn't even make a choice by himself, and felt that every step he took towards Qi Peisheng was leading to the end, but he had to admit that he was Touched by Qi Peisheng's concern, he was secretly delighted, and the mixed emotions in his mind for a moment made a wet fog in front of his eyes. He cleared his throat silently, and said softly, "Then when will you come back?"

Ji Yue's ending was swallowed by himself, and Qi Peisheng can almost imagine his appearance here, a well-behaved and obedient beautiful child.Thinking of this, Qi Peisheng had a little smile in his voice, spreading down his throat to the corner of his eyes: "Tomorrow afternoon, follow the driver to the airport."

Ji Yue was slightly taken aback, he couldn't deny that he was full of joy this second, his consciousness almost pulled away from his body, he heard himself obediently responding: "Okay."

Slowly hanging up the phone, Ji Yue touched the hot screen, wondering whether it was the phone itself that was getting hot or the heat from his face.The sky has not yet completely darkened, the sky is blue-gray, and the moon can be seen vaguely.

Ji Yue lowered his head, and his blushing cheeks and ears gradually returned to their original colors. Ji Yue couldn't deny that he was happy because he was allowed to approach Qi Peisheng, but the rationality in his heart was always stretched with a red thread, making him feel like he was holding a bunch of beautiful things. The fragile Liuli walked on the steel cable in the sky, warning him not to wishful thinking.

The sweetness Qi Peisheng gave was real, and the bitterness Ji Yue tasted was not illusory either.

Ji Yue exhaled lightly, with an incompatible bitterness on his still young and handsome face, he twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a relieved smile.Ji Yue felt like an addict who couldn't bear the temptation and went on the road of no return for the sake of momentary happiness. From the beginning to the end, everything was his own fault.

All the first times in the first few years are vivid in his mind, Ji Yue stood up from the bench, walked to the river and squatted down, looked at himself blurred in the reflection of the water surface, and then stretched out his hand to disturb the water surface.

He thought, if the fate ahead is fixed, he doesn't know whether it's faster to drown or go to Qi Peisheng.
