Rise in the glory of the king system

Chapter 679 The Square
The boy with dark chestnut hair and broken hair was riding a bicycle and stopped in front of the square of Zhao's head office. The security guards on the side saw this and immediately went up to him, looking at the boy's Chang'an High School uniform and his chest After staying on the school badge for a few seconds, he said very politely:

"Sorry, this is the Zhao family. Employees are not allowed to enter."

Yi Xing raised his chin, his star eyes glowing with deep maroon luster fell on the security guard's face, his tone was polite enough.

"I'm here to find the assistant director."

Uncle Security was taken aback, and the scene he saw at the gate of the company this morning immediately came to mind. The newly appointed assistant director sat in the co-pilot seat of the director. It was still early in the morning. At that time, he felt that the relationship between these two people might be Not so ordinary.

Now another boy came to find the assistant director?Still a student?

The security guard rolled his eyes. Out of the idea that "the good news should not go to outsiders," he chose the pair of director and assistant. Any other boys were the director's competitors who overestimated their abilities and could not even be considered as opponents.

"Sorry, really not, you'd better go back."

As he said this, he felt that this did not seem to have any threat to the boys, and added, "Our director is the only son of Chairman Zhao, rich and talented, you are a student at school, your future is uncertain, you understand ?"

Yi Xing blinked, "I don't really understand..."

Why did he feel that Zhao's security guards were a bit abnormal?

Diao Chan walked to the square with a broom, and happened to see her younger brother being stopped at the door by the security uncle. Judging by the expressions of the two, they seemed to be arguing about something.

She stood there for a while before slowly walking over with a dazed expression.

"Brother...?"

The security guard turned around when he heard the voice, and when he saw the assistant director himself coming, he put his hands on his hips in satisfaction, and turned back to look at the boy in front of him with a victorious expression.

"Hey~ By the way, brother, did you hear that? She called you brother, you are still a little brother, so go back to school."

"No, he is really my brother."

Diao Chan stepped forward, looking up and down at her younger brother, "Didn't you go to school? Why did you come to the company?"

Yi Xing's slightly annoyed expression because of the security guard's obstruction quickly softened.

In front of his sister, he has always been like a little puppy with no temper.

"Today is the school's anniversary, and I only have half a day of class, so I want to come and see you."

After finishing speaking, his eyes fell on the broom she was holding in her hand.

"...What are you doing?"

"I'm here to scan... uh... scan the entrance of the company," Diao Chan scratched his face with his fingers in embarrassment, "the position of assistant director is more concerned... hahaha..."

I felt a lot more relaxed. I thought he was too worried about himself so he skipped class and ran out to see her. Then she would definitely feel sad. Fortunately, my brother has always been good at both character and learning, so she can worry less.

Yi Xing was silent for a while—he knew his sister very well, she would habitually scratch her face with her fingers when she lied in front of him, she might be able to tell lies in front of others, but in front of him, she would instinctively avoid .

This job might be really tiring, and the so-called director might really be making things difficult for her.

He frowned, and stretched out his hand to lightly brush the sweat-soaked hair on her forehead, his eyes full of distress.

Zhao Yun, who had just stepped out of the company, had a panoramic view of this scene.

His azure eyes seemed to have been dyed a darker color, and a ray of aggressive light flew past his eyes. He stood still, thinking about some dangerous thoughts in his mind.

Yi Xing's peripheral vision glanced at the position not far behind Diao Chan. The slender man stood there steadily, his hands casually in his pockets, looking here with an unkind look. He instinctively became wary, but He glared back without hesitation——

The two gazes met in mid-air, and the vast space seemed to be reduced to a battlefield without gunpowder, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

Zhao Yun smiled in a low voice, and walked over casually, skipping the uncle security guard who was waving his hands desperately, as if implying something, clenched his fists with a cold face, and his eyes gradually turned fierce as he stared at the boy.

"You can't fall in love in the company."

Diao Chan turned around, and was stunned when she heard his inexplicable words.

"Director, he is my younger brother."

Zhao Yun's tense nerves seemed to be loosened suddenly, and he slightly squinted his eyes against the sun, as if trying to pull out a memory that was almost forgotten in the chaotic brain——

She does seem to have said that she has a brother.

His gaze paused for a moment on Yixing's dark chestnut hair and eyes.

...It does look a bit like her.

Zhao Yun looked away speechlessly, and his Adam's apple rolled unnaturally.

The mood is inexplicably clearer.

"Visiting relatives is not allowed during working hours."

"... "

------

When Zhao Yun returned to the company, his footsteps were obviously much lighter than when he first left.

Although his handsome face was slightly taut, he still looked expressionless.

Liu Bang, the head of the Propaganda Department who had been standing by and watched the whole process, had a subtle look on his face.

Just now he was discussing with the director about the company's upcoming products, Zhao Yun, who always puts work first, just casually glanced outside the company's gate, immediately interrupted the discussion, and walked out with a sullen face.

He also followed behind and watched the excitement for a while, and probably understood the reason.

This little girl who is new to the company is quite obedient to the director.

He touched his chin thoughtfully, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he couldn't help showing an ambiguous smile.

Zhao Yun's eyes glanced over lazily.

"What are you laughing at?"

Liu Bang immediately restrained the expression on his face, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes.

"It's nothing... I just wanted to tell you that the publicity effect of this product is not as good as expected. According to shareholders, this is no different from last year's publicity."

Zhao Yun's eyes were slightly cold, and he seemed to have guessed what he wanted to say next.

The launch of this product has been delayed for two months. Up to now, the promotion has not been done yet.

What do these people eat?
"Aren't you the Minister of Propaganda? You are responsible for the publicity. If you get the salary, you can do things well for me. If the publicity is not strong enough, you can find a way."

"Yes...Director Zhao, the solution has actually been thought of, but you need to cooperate..."

Liu Bang broke out in a cold sweat, and finally got to the point obediently.

But seeing the expression of the person in front of him becoming more and more cold, he instinctively lowered his head again, not daring to look directly at him.

It is indeed his job to promote products, but asking the director to cooperate with them this time is really going too far.

No wonder the director's expression became so ugly.

but…

Zhao Yun was only silent for a moment.

"...What do you need my cooperation for?"

------

Diaochan managed to persuade Yixing to go back.

My younger brother has always been obedient and sensible, but for some reason today he behaved uncharacteristically, like a cat whose hair has exploded, with an extremely stubborn temper.

Did you learn something bad from someone at school?

Diao Chan looked at the figure who was riding a bicycle getting farther and farther away, and lowered her eyelashes in concern.

Sure enough, I still have to take some time to talk to his teacher.

She turned on her phone and glanced at the time displayed on it.

It's time to go back, or that guy will start talking again.

Diao Chan turned around and trotted towards the lobby of the company. As soon as he ran in, he saw Zhao Yun sitting alone on the sofa in the lobby, looking thoughtful.

She hesitated for a moment, but walked over with light steps, bent down——

"Director...?"

Zhao Yun, who was thinking about something, was instantly pulled back from his thoughts by her shock, and his handsome face was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

He raised his head and stared at her with a sullen expression, his eyes full of blame, "...Scare me...!"

Diao Chan raised her brows softly, her pupils were like a river of stars.

"Director, are you too young?"

Noticing Zhao Yun's slightly complicated expression, the smile on her face gradually faded, and she added in a slightly innocent voice, "I mean courage."

Zhao Yun stood up from the sofa, obviously not wanting to care about others, so she had no choice but to stick out her tongue for fun, and after a while, she eagerly stood beside him.

"Director, can I get off work early today?"

Just as she was about to look at his face expectantly, she was turned back by his sharp gaze.

She was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head in disappointment.

"...Okay, I get it."

Zhao Yun withdrew his eyes pretending to be calm, straightened his back, and looked indifferently in another direction, but there was an obvious unnaturalness in his eyes.

"There is something... I want to ask you for help."

Diao Chan didn't hide it at all, and looked at him with hopeful eyes again, "Is that helpful? I can..."

"Ok, Ok."

Zhao Yun cut off her words impatiently, a faint blush involuntarily stained both sides of his cheeks.

"So, can you be my girlfriend...for a while?"

The moment Zhao Yun spoke, Diao Chan thought that her ears were hallucinating.

She had known him for only three days, and he didn't even know each other. To her, he was just a boss, not even a friend. To put it bluntly, he could even be considered her half-enemy.

Now he actually asked her if she wanted to be his girlfriend?
Diao Chan really wanted to refuse immediately, but when she thought about her current position, if there was no room for rejection, would such a small-minded person like him drive her out of the company in a fit of anger?
Wouldn't the rent, the living expenses of her and her brother, and the debts owed by the family be hopeless?
So Diao Chan was tangled.

Zhao Yun, who had always thought that being his girlfriend would be a good way out for her, could not wait for a response, not even a rejection. Only then did he consider a problem -

He glanced at Diao Chan out of the corner of his eye, "...you already have a boyfriend?"

Probably.

Although his assistant doesn't have any outstanding abilities, his appearance is quite pleasing to the eye, and now he is in his youth, so it is normal to have a boyfriend.

Diao Chan stood up straight, stroked her hair awkwardly, "I don't have any..."

"Then why do you..."

Zhao Yun's words stopped abruptly. He suddenly didn't want to pursue this reason anymore. He actually knew very well that he might not have left a good impression on her in the past three days.

He frowned and his tone gradually became serious.

"Recently, the company is going to launch a series of products for couples, but the publicity is not too strong. The publicity minister said that if I fall in love, I will describe this product as a gift specially designed for my lover. come to a good profit."

He looked away, "What I mean is... I want you to pretend to be my girlfriend, just for publicity... nothing else."

Diao Chan was stunned for a moment, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out that she was just pretending.

She just said, a man like him standing at the top of the pyramid has seen more excellent women than she eats, how could he fall in love with her blindly within three days?
But even if you pretend to be a girlfriend, it's easy to be pushed to the forefront, right?
She really didn't want to cause trouble for herself.

Diao Chan narrowed her eyes, and her voice gradually became somewhat uncertain.

"Can't you find someone else?"

She frowned, and reluctantly lowered her face, "I haven't even been in a relationship yet, and I don't know how to pretend, so even if it's for some publicity, I..."

Zhao Yun calmly lowered his gaze.

"I will give you a salary. How about 500 yuan a day? The salary is settled daily."

Diao Chan clenched the corner of her clothes slightly, compulsively preventing her consciousness from drifting away with his very tempting words.

"I'm not that kind of woman, so even if you say so, I will..."

"one thousand."

She raised her face extremely quickly, "How long have you been pretending?"

"... "

This woman is really money-centered.

Zhao Yun suddenly felt a little regretful—if she had said Qibai first, would she have agreed?
Although the brain was so annoyed, the starry eyes were shining with a gentle smile that he didn't even notice.

He stared down at her for a moment, with a soft smile involuntarily in his voice.

"Just in time, I also have something to give you."

------

Diao Chan followed Zhao Yun to the company's underground garage.

Here, she saw a luxury car that only appeared in TV dramas.

It's really not easy for the high-level people who work in Zhao's.

Diao Chan's eyes were not enough, she was dazzled by one luxury car after another, she didn't even notice that Zhao Yun, who was walking in front, stopped suddenly, and bumped into it abruptly.

She covered her hurt nose, and before she could scream out the pain, she heard a voice above her head:
"It's for you."

Only then did Diao Chan withdraw her slightly resentful gaze, still clutching the tip of her aching nose, she leaned out from behind him.

——The royal blue sports car parked there quietly.

She was stunned, and subconsciously moved her fingers away from the tip of her nose.

Combined with what Zhao Yun said just now, "For you", she suddenly felt that her brain became a little hypoxic.

He... He sent her a sports car?
Diao Chan glanced at Zhao Yun in disbelief, with unconcealable joy in his eyes.

"Is it really for me?"

"Isn't your bicycle broken?" Zhao Yun's tone was calm.

She blinked her eyes, but still kept her face tensed pretending to be reserved.

"Although that's the case...but giving me a sports car or something...it's too expensive, and besides, I don't know how to drive."

Zhao Yun turned his face to look at the sports car in front of him, his eyes darkened, then he silently raised his arm and pressed her head down.

Diao Chan smiled and lowered her eyes, the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

Next to the sports car, there is a brand new pink bicycle parked quietly.

------

In a small compartment.

Zhao Yun glanced at the gloomy and taciturn girl sitting in the co-pilot, she looked like she would be loveless for as long as she lived.

He immediately contacted the dealer to choose a bicycle suitable for girls and send it to the garage.

Is it a reward for her three days of hard work?
He thought she would like it.

Zhao Yun withdrew his gaze, pulled the seat belt to fasten it, and slightly lifted his thin lips.

"If you don't like the color of this bike, you can change it. I thought girls would prefer pink, so..."

"understood…"

Diao Chan was lying in front of the car window, her voice was weak, with a drawn-out ending, vaguely depressed.

She was very happy that he gave her a new bicycle, but it would be better if he just gave it to her. It must be placed next to that eye-catching sports car. After a huge psychological gap, who has the energy to be happy.

Diao Chan stared at the profile of Zhao Yun's face reflected in the car window, and couldn't help but make a face at him.

Zhao Yun started the engine, and glanced at her again from the corner of his eye.
