Next, cold boss

The darts flew past quickly like an arrow leaving the string.

"铛" - an extremely crisp sound, drowned in the astonished air-conditioning of the crowd.

No one heard the sound of the dart hitting a foreign object—except Liu Shangyi himself.

The sharp edge of the dart pierced Liu Shangyi's brooch impartially.

clang!

This collision sounded like a thunderbolt on Liu Shangyi's heart, and after that, Liu Shangyi could only hear his own rapid heartbeat.

So scary.

If the dart deviates by an inch, it will hit Liu Shangyi's chest!

Liu Shangyi was terrified.

Others were also surprised by this turn of events.

On the other hand, Guan Chu looked calm and said, "Sorry, I missed the target."

At this moment, Liu Shangyi finally came back to his senses. After waking up, his panic disappeared immediately, replaced by anger welling up in his heart.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Guan Chu did it on purpose.In Liu Shangyi's view, this "intentional" is simply "malicious", and it can even be said to be "buying human life"!You know, the distance between them is not too close. If the dart deviates a little bit and misses the brooch, it will hit Liu Shangyi's chest!

Isn't this harmful!

But the problem came again. Now the dart really only touched the brooch, so it can't be said that it hurt someone.It is not easy for Liu Shangyi to be held accountable.

Liu Shangyi wouldn't suffer from being dumb, he immediately clutched his chest, and backed away with an "ouch", as if he was really hurt.Standing beside him, Zeng Tongshi immediately understood, helped him up, and said, "Did you get scared? Or did you get hurt somewhere?" While pretending to be anxious, he looked at Guan Chu.

The others probably understood what was going on, so they turned their eyes around the two of them with a look of watching the show.

Guan Chu remained silent.

Zeng Yan was willing to speak at this time, and said: "Then there must be no delay, please ask the imperial doctor for examination."

The imperial physician at the scene came to give Liu Shangyi a simple examination, and then reported back: "There is no external injury, maybe I was scared."

Liu Shangyi's face was pale and he didn't speak. Tong Shi cooperated beside him, and only said to Guan Chu: "Mr. Guan, you are too careless in this way."

Guan Chu said lightly, "Sorry."

Tong Shi still wanted to say something, but Dr. Yi smiled slightly and said, "Guan Chu really missed his mark, but he didn't mean it. Now that Liu Shangyi is fine, everyone can rest assured."

After Dr. Yi made this statement, the bystanders who had been silent for a while immediately started to chatter, and said to Liu Shangyi, "That's not true, swords have no eyes, and it's no wonder Guan Chu."

"Yeah, it's good that people are fine."

"Since Liu Shangyi is not feeling well, why don't you go to the lounge and lie down first?"

"Well, this kind of thing happened, everyone didn't want it..."

……

Hearing these words, Liu Shangyi was so angry that his back molars were about to be crushed, but he couldn't break out.Tong Shi didn't dare to cooperate any more, so he followed suit and said, "Well, Liu Shangyi's expression is really bad, Dr. Yi, let me help him to the rest room first?"

"Go ahead," Dr. Yi said.

So Zeng Tongshi helped Liu Shangyi to the rest room, walked a few steps, and turned his head once, but saw Dr. Yi holding Guan Chu and talking very kindly.The way everyone looked at Guan Chu had also undergone a huge change, and there was no longer a playful expression on their faces, and they all smiled like Guan Chu's own aunt.

Zeng Tongshi gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice: "I mean, Zeng Yan has no profit, so why is he willing to 'help the poor' in marriage? It turns out that he is interested in Guan Chu being able to please the Crown Princess. Zeng Yan After all, it’s ALPHA, and it’s inconvenient to get close to the princess. Now Guan Chu, you can go to ‘madam diplomacy’. I really underestimated them both.”

Liu Shangyi hated it, and was speechless for a while.

The balcony on the second floor of the banquet hall is wide, with wooden floors, rocking chairs, rattan chairs and rattan tables, and one wall is covered with luxuriant blue snowflakes.The Crown Princess sat down beside the flower wall, and greeted Guan Chu: "You sit too."

Zeng Yan and others did not follow to the balcony, only the tea maid, Dr. Yi and Guan Chu were here.

Guan Chu didn't feel cramped, he nodded slightly and sat down.

Dr. Yi chatted with Guan Chu and asked about Guan Chu's situation.Guan Chu also answered one by one, speaking simply and without embellishment, he looked like an honest person.

Dr. Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard what he said, and said, "It seems that you are indeed a cold-tempered person."

Guan Chu only said: "Perhaps it is caused by apathy."

Hearing that Guan Chu had no grievances about his suffering from apathy, Dr. Yi was also a little surprised.However, Dr. Yi seemed to understand, so he nodded and said, "However, apathy does not necessarily affect temperament. Speaking of which, I have heard of misdiagnosed cases of apathy."

Guan Chu was quite surprised when he heard the words: "Apathy was misdiagnosed?"

"Well, it sounds hard to imagine, right? Because the symptoms of apathy are too clear, how can you make a mistake?" Dr. Yi spread his hands and said with a smile, "But in fact, there is another extremely rare constitution , called 'Cupid's Syndrome', would probably be treated as apathy."

"Cupid syndrome?" Guan Chu had never heard of this.

"Yes, to put it simply, it's not that this person can't feel and emit pheromones, but that he can only respond to pheromones with a 100% fit, not even 0.01% less." Dr. Yi picked up the teacup, Put it on the palm of your hand and turn it gently, "It's like being shot by Cupid's arrow, so it's called Cupid's syndrome."

Guan Chu fell into a great shock: "I...have never heard of it."

"Yes, this is a very rare physique." Dr. Yi said with a smile, "As long as a normal person reaches the fitness level of sixty or seventy, they feel that they can do it. When they reach seventy or eighty, they are very happy. But no, it’s not a [-]% fit, so don’t be emotional.”

"Emotional?" Guan Chu's heart skipped a beat, but his face was full of embarrassment, "Compared to being emotional, it is more appropriate to say that it is in estrus."

"Huh?" Dr. Yi looked at Guan Chu.

Guan Chu said: "Just smelling the smell, he lost his mind, completely disregarding the other person's appearance, temperament, identity, and character, and devoted himself to it... This is really..." Guan Chu raised his eyes and looked Looking at Dr. Yi, it suddenly occurred to me that perhaps Dr. Yi is also a supporter of "pheromone love", so he couldn't speak too much, so he shut his mouth.

Dr. Yi asked with great interest: "What is it really? Tell me."

Guan Chu said, "Like a dog."

Dr. Yi laughed loudly when he heard this, and said, "Okay, very good!"

After laughing for a while, Dr. Yi said again: "Dog. It's very appropriate. I like your metaphor. But people, sometimes they are really similar to dogs. Sometimes, I think it would be cute if people could be like dogs. of."

Regarding the views of the noble princess, Guan Chu really did not agree with her.

At this time, a maid came in and reported: "Liu Shangyi and Zeng Tongshi accidentally fell from the steps on the second floor, and they have been sent to the hospital now."

Guan Chu was a little surprised when he heard the words.

After hearing this, Dr. Yi shook his head, sighed, and said half a second later, "Oh, then...send my condolences."

"Yes." The maid replied.

Dr. Yi said to Guan Chu again: "Don't just sit here, go for a walk and get to know more people, it will be good for you in the future."

Guan Chu also resigned.

Guan Chu chatted with Dr. Yi over a cup of tea and then left. After he came back from the balcony, he immediately felt the huge difference between warm and cold.The attitudes of those who would talk about him instead of talking to him were reversed, and when they saw him, they immediately stopped talking and came up to talk to him.

But no matter whether others treat him coldly or warmly, he is always lukewarm, making people unable to see his attitude clearly.

When the banquet was over, Zeng Yan also personally sent Guan Chu to the car outside the venue.

Because Zeng Yan had to stay to do tidying up, he had to send Guan Chu to the palace gate.Once outside the door, Zeng Yanfang took out a rather gorgeous brooch from his pocket, and introduced: "This is a jewel made in the palace. It is a gift from the prince. I have never worn it. Now I give it to you. I hope you like it." .”

In this way, this gift can be regarded as quite expensive.

Guan Chu didn't look surprised at all, he just said, "Is this affirmation of my performance tonight?"

Speaking of which, although Zeng Yan had sent Guan Chu an invitation letter for this banquet, he had said in advance that Guan Chu should attend "as Zeng Yan's male companion".However, Zeng Yan neither brought Guan Chu to the venue in person, nor did he explicitly introduce the relationship between Guan Chu and himself to anyone.He put Guan Chu in this unfamiliar Vanity Fair, to see how Guan Chu would deal with himself.

Thinking about it this way, this dinner was more like Zeng Yan's "assessment" of Guan Chu.

Now that this precious brooch is in place, it proves that Guan Chu "passed the assessment", and he is now officially a partner candidate approved by Zeng Yan.

Zeng Yan doesn't think there is anything wrong with doing this, any ALPHA like him will choose a partner very carefully.What's more, Guan Chu is a businessman who is no longer young and suffering from apathy. From any angle, he has climbed the door of Zengyan.It is reasonable for Zeng Yan to investigate him more.

So Zeng Yan generously admitted: "Yes, your performance tonight is satisfactory."

Saying that, Zeng Yan reached out to put on the imperial brooch for Guan Chu.

Guan Chu took a slight step back and said, "Unfortunately, your performance tonight is disappointing."

Zeng Yan lost his hand, and his face was startled.

Guan Chu didn't say much, turned around, got into the prepared car, and asked the driver to start the car.

Seeing the car speeding into the night, Zeng Yan came back to his senses, and murmured, "That's interesting, he still took Joe?"

As soon as Guan Chu returned to the apartment where he lived alone, he almost immediately noticed that someone had been there.

The carpet was a little crooked, the position of the water cup was moved, and the curtains were pulled halfway... All these were too obvious to Guan Chu.

It's like an obvious flaw that was deliberately discovered by others.

Guan Chu pursed his lips and subconsciously took out his phone.

As if a calculation had been made, the phone rang when it left the trouser pocket.
