I thought I was a jerk

Xue Ci was distracted for too long.

Even Xue's father began to suspect that he might be taking too many steps, and Xue Ci was not so easy to accept quickly.And Xue Fu looked at Xue Ci with thoughtful and worried eyes, and the toughness inside continued to melt away.When Xue Fu almost couldn't help letting go, and asked his father to give Ah Ci more time, at least let him contact Xue's cumbersome matters after graduation... Xue Ci spoke first.

"it is good."

Xue Ci said softly.

He brushed aside the initial confusion and suspicion for the time being, and it was difficult for Xue Ci to discern the wavering in his heart. His response was more like a temptation, a temptation to Xue's father's actions.

If it was for another purpose, could his father really... do it to this extent?

It even made him approach the high-voltage red line of his previous life, even if it was just barely within reach.

Xue Ci has never planned to interfere with the power of the Xue family in this life, apart from not caring, he also does not want to humiliate himself countless times in order to compete for those unrealizable desires.

However, the taboo that he should have avoided inexplicably became insignificant, and it seemed that it was no longer worth talking about.

Xue Ci gave birth to a very strong desire to explore.

He couldn't figure out the root cause of all these, and he always had to see clearly what Father Xue's purpose was.

When Xue Ci agreed to come down, he pursed his lips slightly and carefully observed the expression changes of the two Xue family rulers in front of him, but the expected patience and expression changes did not appear, but Xue Fu showed a sigh of relief, He reached out and stroked the top of his hair lightly.

"Ah Ci has grown up." Xue Fu said.

Xue Zhengjing seemed calmer, but his eyes fell on Xue Ci, with an inexplicable confidence and pride, "It should be so."

·

The Xue family's style of dealing with things may be very vigorous.

It was rare for Xue Zhengjing to stay at home for a long time this time, but after his lunch break, he returned to the company to deal with affairs.And when Xue Fu was going to the branch office, he naturally brought his younger brother with him.

Even if it is clear in advance, going to the company is today.But when he really wanted to go, Xue Ci hesitated for a moment.

"Now?" Xue Ci paused for a moment, and he whispered: "...too early."

"Come back for dinner in the evening, and I won't go to the company again." The itinerary was arranged before, and Xue Fu cut off all the activities after six o'clock in the evening. After all, it is rare for Ah Ci to come back, so he always saves money to take his younger brother to have fun time.

"Based on this, it's not very early." Xue Fu whispered to his younger brother, and there was a smile on his lips as he thought of something.

Xue Ci silently nodded.

Xue Fu added, "If Ah Ci is sleepy, you can lie down in the lounge in my office in the afternoon."

Before Xue Ci discerned the unexplained meaning of this sentence, whether it was some kind of trap, he had already answered in a low voice.

It was exactly two o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at Xue's branch.

The scale of this company is not small, and after Xue Fu took full control of it, its income has increased a lot.Although it involves a wide range of projects, the most important business at present is the development of many devices suitable for chips.

Xue Ci compared it with his impression, but it was not much different from his previous life.

Xue Fu is a very diligent boss, he comes earlier than most of the staff, or he is away from work for business and does not come to the company all day.Arriving at noon like this is rare.Therefore, even though the number of people they met along the way was not many, those white-collar workers all noticed the car of the young boss who was late today.

Of course, there are people who get on and off the vehicle.

Before the assistant helped to open the door, Young Master Xue actually moved one step faster.He opened the car door, even wanting to give Xue Ci another hand.

After Xue Ci came down, he got closer and introduced the company's internal situation to him in a low voice.

These messages were very clear to Xue Ci in his previous life.

But in order not to show any flaws, naturally it was rare to raise his spirits, and responded as if he had arrived for the first time.

"understood."

"it is good."

"I'll put it to good use."

The secretary in charge of showing the young master a tour to understand the functions was at a loss: "..."

Xue Fu's soft-spoken appearance really shocked many people's eyes.One must know that even when facing Father Xue, Xue Fu's attitude is only solemn and solemn, never has he ever had such an intimate and considerate appearance.He had never even seen his personal assistant, and the rest of the company had never seen him before. They all looked sideways, surprised in their hearts, and their eyes swept over the people around Mr. Xue more secretly and frequently.

Although his face was covered by a mask, he couldn't see his face clearly.But the proportions of the young man's figure are too good, and the skin complexion that is occasionally exposed is pale. Just by those eyes, one can guess what kind of beautiful face it is.

Young master Xue is young and promising, he is the proud son of heaven that everyone envies in this age group, but there are surprisingly few scandals around him, no matter men or women, there is no one who is ambiguous, and the restraint of poverty is like an ascetic monk, and there is little good looks Beautiful people will recommend themselves with beauty, because Xue Fu, who is clear and indifferent, will not accept this.

At this time, a beautiful woman suddenly appeared beside Xue Fu, and she got off Xue Fu's car, her posture was still intimate, one could imagine how big the storm would be.

Even many employees or executives who don't care about gossip have aroused extraordinary attention to this matter.

Of course, it is not a concern on the bright side.After all, gossip about the biggest boss is not so easy to snoop on, and Xue Fu's style of leadership has always been ruthless, so it is not worthwhile to give away a high-paying job for curiosity.Therefore, even the most daring people dare not discuss it openly at their workplaces, and only dare to ask some close colleagues in private...

Among these colleagues, of course, one of the administrative secretaries responsible for entertaining Young Master Xue, Secretary Zhang.

The most basic requirement for a secretary is to be strict with his mouth. If the boss has a private matter, no matter how others ask, he can't reveal the slightest bit.

But this time was an exception, Xue Fu did not ask him to keep it secret, but instead instructed Secretary Zhang to notify the matter in place, lest there would always be people who don't have good eyesight and bump into the young master of Xue's family.

At this time, Secretary Zhang was a little out of breath listening to those colleagues' guesses.

What a mess... He took a deep breath and said with a respectful expression: "Stop talking nonsense, that's our little boss."

"Little Boss." The person in front of him showed a look of sudden realization, and there was a little obscenity in the ambiguity.

"..." Secretary Zhang was speechless, "What are you thinking, a serious little boss, the young master of the Xue family, the kind who can make you pack up and leave with a single sentence. Let everyone cheer up, don't have a brain or eyes .”

There are many people who know the son of Xue's parents. He has been the favored son of Zhoucheng Daily since he was 16 years old.But very few people have seen that young master, and many people have never even thought that the young master Xue Fu is not the only son.

And even if they knew that there was such a young master, they suspected that the relationship between the two young masters of the Xue family might not be too harmonious. Who would have thought that the two could appear so close, and suddenly they were a little bit unexpected and very surprised.

However, he was completely honest and dared not criticize that young master Xue anymore.

Xue Ci had successfully sat in the top office at this time.

Naturally, it was his brother's office.

Xue Fu's posture was very casual, and Xue Ci was asked to browse and rest casually in the office.Anyway, the lounge is open, and the assistant sensibly filled it with items including snacks. There are reclining chairs, sofas and computers, and many games that young people love most nowadays are purchased in the game consoles.It is the place where Xue Fu handles documents in the office, and two sofas are added as soft sleepers.

Xue Ci didn't have much interest in these things. After Xue Fu agreed, Xue Ci flipped through some documents stacked on the table.

The more you look at it, the more frightened you become.

It's not about the scale of the plans in these documents, but that these really represent the company's core plans, and are important matters that Xue Fu is handling.He even let Xue Ci browse the secrets and various supply sources and budgets without any precautions. If he had any disagreements, he could use these materials to intercept Xue Fu's plan.

Being exposed to these things from the very beginning, instead of doing a good job in appearance, naturally made Xue Ci a little complicated.

Why does Xue Fu trust himself so much...?

No matter how you look at it, or what Father Xue's attitude is, they are all competitors.

After the young master opened the document, his slender fingertips pressed against the paper, and his drooping eyelashes trembled slightly.I haven't moved for a long time, and I seem to be a little confused about the above content.Xue Fu watched his movements from the side, full of tenderness, and walked over to see which document Xue Ci was looking at.After finding out that the above was the acquisition plan of Bingsheng Company, after thinking about it, he began to explain the secrets to Xue Ci.

The very soft younger brother under Xue Fu's eyes raised his head slightly when he was talking, and looked at Xue Fu with complicated eyes. There seemed to be some uncontrollable emotions in his dark pupils, which made Xue Fu care a little bit.

"What's the matter?" Xue Fu thought it was Xue Ci who felt bored, and began to reflect on the obscurity of his words just now and being too devoted, and he didn't notice that at Xue Ci's age, if he just came into contact with these things, he would be too uninterested, "If If you are interested, brother will go back tonight and make a detailed document for you, don’t force yourself to get started now.”

"My brother was in a hurry to deal with these things at the beginning, and he ran back to Xue's house all night in annoyance and refused to go to work." Xue Fu laughed, talking about his embarrassment without changing his face, but Ah Ci, who couldn't coax him in the end, smiled at him one time.

Xue Ci stared directly at Xue Fu for a long time before responding.

He said slowly, "Okay."

Xue Fu was very busy in the afternoon, and he couldn't waste it at all.But it was very free for Xue Ci, anyway, Xue Fu didn't ask him to do anything, Xue Ci just opened those files at will, and he was also allowed.

At five o'clock, Xue Fu was notified by his secretary to hold an offline meeting.Although it is a routine meeting, it is not easy to be brief because there are several shareholders involved.Xue Fu could only stand up with a slight frown, buttoned the top button of his clothes again, and agreed in a cold tone.

Then, I thought of Xue Ci again.

"Ah Ci, do you want to go with me?"

Xue Fu asked, "Anyway, you will also attend these regular meetings in the future."

When it comes to company management, Xue Ci still has some experience, but it is unprecedented to participate in shareholders' meetings. Whoever said that those with a little status would not give Xue Ci this face.This leap was quite big, and Xue Ci felt his intention in an instant, but quickly remembered the purpose of his coming, so he refused quite simply: "I won't go."

Before Xue Fu opened his mouth, Xue Ci had already thought of an excuse to deal with it, "I want to get acquainted with the environment again."

Xue Fu's expression turned into a little regret, "That's good."

The idea of ​​bringing Xue Ci to his meeting place and casually showing off that he was his younger brother was shattered, but Xue Fu didn't force it any more, just exhorted a few words before leaving.

"My mobile phone is on, if there is a problem, call my brother."

Secretary Zhang, who bowed his head and said nothing at the side, was devastated: If he could make Young Master Xue feel dissatisfied and call the boss directly, he wouldn't have to be a secretary anymore!

After Xue Fu left, the pressure on Secretary Zhang not only did not decrease, but increased even more.After all, it is only when he is alone that he can better understand the temperament of this young master——

He took the initiative to add a cup of coffee with the right ratio of sugar and milk for the young master, and said respectfully: "Young master, if you want to know any information, I will tell you the truth."

But Xue Ci didn't seem to be interested in those company inside stories.

He closed the document in his hand, "There is nothing necessary, you can go to work." Xue Fu does not have a professional life secretary, and each secretary has its own division of labor.Even if it was him, he wouldn't let the secretary stay by his side to take care of him all the time.

Zhang Mi's head was clouded, and he almost began to wonder where he had offended the young master, but seeing Xue Ciping's downcast eyes, he denied this guess again, and said cautiously: "My job today is to be by your side and answer your questions. Solve the doubts and provide the services you need."

Xue Ci said, "Then do your usual job."

Secretary Zhang: "..."

"I don't have anything that needs you." After his brother left, Xue Ci didn't look through those documents, but sat on the soft chair beside him, and opened the book that he randomly pulled out from the bookcase in the lounge.

Secretary Zhang thought, as expected, he was still a young master who had just grown up, and he heard that he was well protected. He hadn't entered the society yet, so he would rather read books when he was not interested in those powers.Seeing that Young Master Xue really had no intention of ordering him, he retreated to the side in a gentle manner, and dealt with the documents in his hand, but he did not let go of observing Xue Ci's movements, and tried his best not to be an eyesore, but also to respond quickly to serve him. Little Master provides service.

Although it was just a regular meeting, there seemed to be something unexpected this time, so that Xue Fu went away for a long time and has not come back yet.Finally, when it was nearly six o'clock, the young master of the Xue family made a video call to Xue Ci.

The moment the connection was made, the cold and stern expression on Xue Fu's face became milder, preventing Xue Ci from seeing any of his emotions.

"I'm sorry, Ah Ci." Xue Fu said, "Brother has some things to deal with here, and he may be busy until after seven o'clock. You go to the restaurant reserved by brother first, and brother will have dinner with you tomorrow, okay?"

With this tone, it seems that Xue Ci really needs his brother's company.

Xue Ci was a little speechless, just about to answer him that waiting until seven o'clock is not a big deal.But then weighed it up again, and responded decisively, "Okay."

Xue Fu breathed a sigh of relief.After a few more words of apology in a low voice, he hung up the phone.

At the moment of hanging up, the atmosphere of the silent conference room continued to drop to freezing point.Xue Fu's dark eyes were filled with certain emotions, and his expression became colder and calmer. Almost no one dared to look at Xue Fu like this, or touch his anger.

Xue Fu's hand lightly tapped on the table, bringing a wordless deterrent force.

"Okay." Xue Fu said, "Which one of you will speak first."

The elevator doors opened and closed.

Xue Ci took the elevator that went directly to the president's office, and Secretary Zhang stood by respectfully. He originally went to the parking lot on the second floor downstairs, but Xue Ci didn't have to go in and out with his brother again, so he changed his way to the elevator. In the hall on the first floor.

Secretary Zhang was thinking about whether to urgently arrange for a car to pick up the young master, but he was also entangled in thinking that the young master of the Xue family would arrange trips with fewer people, so he was suspected of overstepping the rules.While we were weighing, the elevator had already opened first. Secretary Zhang acted faster than his brain. He blocked Xue Ci's side first to clear the way for the young master. Some.

As expected, the news spread very quickly. Compared with the previously restrained gazes that were only afraid of Mr. Xue, this time they were much more serious and respectful.Even if there was a lot of curiosity, no one dared to look up at the places that Young Master Xue walked, and they all lowered their heads slightly to avoid it, appearing very cautious.

This silence caused by respect and awe lasted for a long time, so that the sudden eruption of arguing in the waiting room was very obvious, and it attracted countless people to look sideways.

One of the brawlers was obviously still very young, and the boy's voice was very pleasant, but he seemed a little hoarse and mocked because of his loud roar and dispute.

The secretary only listened to the content, and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly bowed to Xue Ci and apologized: "I'm sorry, young master, it's really dereliction of duty when such a situation occurs, and we will deal with it as soon as possible."

The secretary whispered to the people around him: "Hurry up and solve it. He even made trouble in front of the young master. Don't you want to do it?"

The person who was told showed some hesitation: "But..."

"If you can't solve it, call the police and let the police solve it. What is the security department doing? He has been let in more than once." The secretary answered him calmly, his expression at that moment looked very indifferent and cold, which made his subordinates hesitate slightly: " good."

Those voices of contention had already subsided, making it difficult to hear clearly.Xue Ci's gaze fell to that direction, and asked, "That's it?"

"There was a criminal who defrauded us in the name of our company. He was one of the victims, so he came to the company and demanded compensation from us." The secretary looked upright, and although his words were impartial, the meaning was very straightforward.

Where there is a claim, it is blackmail when the criminal cannot be found.

The company is in a completely innocent position. If there is anything wrong, it is too famous to be used as a name by fraudsters.In this case, the willingness to compensate is out of humanitarian concern, and it is blackmail to come to the company headquarters to quarrel and make noise.

This kind of trivial matters obviously did not belong to the scope of young master Xue's concern.Xue Ci lowered her eyes slightly, but did not give any response.It was just before leaving the company that the voice that had subsided became extremely clear again.

Anyone can hear the unwillingness in that.

"Last time, I won't come again."

"I want to see Xue Fu!" he said, "I won't go, let me see Xue Fu, let me see him!"

The secretary felt that his cold sweat was about to flow more, and he was complaining incessantly, and he had already started to think about how to explain this matter to Mr. Xue afterwards.

If it is just for compensation, it is actually very strange to call out the name of the company's immediate boss so clearly.

Xue Ci stopped walking, and said calmly: "He knows my brother's name very well."

The secretary lowered his eyes tightly: "A person like him should come prepared."

Xue Ci had already changed direction.

"Young Master Xue!" The secretary was in a panic, and his voice was a little louder, "It's not suitable for you to see such a thing. We can't be sure whether he will pose a threat to you like that blackmailer."

He said in a difficult voice: "Such a person shouldn't dirty the young master's eyes—"

"If he can be alone, within the company, he can threaten me." Xue Ci's voice was quite calm, "Then we should consider re-employing security personnel."

Secretary Zhang only felt his scalp go numb.

However, judging from his position, obstructing a few words is already the ultimate he can do, no matter how much, I am afraid that he will be fired today.So I could only keep my head down, closely following Young Master Xue's footsteps, praying countless times in my heart.

At least "that one" doesn't like to talk about those things. Young Master Xue just went to look at him, and it was impossible to detect the clues at a glance.

But Secretary Zhang didn't notice that Xue Ci's lips were tightly pursed now, his expression was complicated and difficult to distinguish, and those dark eyes seemed to be soaked with a layer of ink.

When he arrived at the waiting room, Xue Ci couldn't figure out where his target was due to the complicated composition of people inside.

But he soon found out.

The boy was escorted by countless security personnel in uniform and pinned to the ground.His body trembled and was pressed to the ground, and the strength of his shoulders arched into a terrible arc, convulsing continuously, like a wild beast and wolf being suppressed on the ground, howling ferociously at everyone he could see, his cheeks But he was still pressed and stuck to the ground, extremely embarrassed.

Someone reached out and pressed his mouth, so that he could only make a short whine.

It's very strange, obviously that body is surprisingly thin and seems to have no strength, but the strength of the struggle is very strong. If the angle is not very good, at least three adults can hold him down.

The boy's body was arched, and he was still yelling something dull. His face was pressed to the ground and he couldn't see the specific expression clearly, but the half of his side face that was occasionally exposed was covered with blue and red bruises.

Of course, no one would deliberately beat him, but since there was a physical dispute, it was extremely difficult not to get scratched.

Xue Ci lowered his head and lowered his eyes to look at the young man who was crouching on the ground like a beast, struggling wildly.

"Let go of him first."

Xue Ci's voice was very soft, but the security guards were very good at seeing people's identities, hesitated for a moment, and then let go of their hands one after another.

The boy was very fast, getting up from the ground in embarrassment as if he was bouncing.He half-raised his body, but those eyes had already looked over first.Dark, wolf-like eyes.When he saw Xue Ci, he was slightly dazed.

He showed a rather indescribable expression, and then turned into a deep guard, or vigilance, as if he was weighing the value of an item, and stared at Xue Ci coldly.

Xue Ci also confirmed his identity at that moment.

Although the difference in circumstances was a bit bizarre, the boy's appearance hadn't changed much from his previous life, and his height was also almost the same.It's just that he is much thinner and looks much more embarrassed.

The custom-made attire, famous watches and cars in the previous life have now turned into a washed-out blue shirt and ordinary jeans.Even the sneakers under his feet were yellowish due to countless washings.

He had short, neat but ordinary hair cut, and his face was covered with bruises and dust.

Without the self-confidence and calmness of the previous life, with extraordinary conversation, he just stared at Xue Ci coldly without saying a word.
