Louis can't refuse

Now that we've come to this point, Chi Yao can't find any reason to refuse. Chi Yao took a deep breath and ran wildly in the night wind, passing through the quiet and old neighborhood, where the street lights had been repaired, and the two of them were sitting upstairs together. Stopping, Chi Yao didn't shy away from Feng Luyi this time, touched his nose, and said, "My house is here."

"En." Feng Luyi straightened his collar for him, with a bit of reluctance in his tone. "See you tomorrow."

Chi Yao glanced at him, and tried to sound calm, "Aiba sent me the address of the branch office in N City, and I will find time to go there tomorrow."

He said it was time, but in fact he got up early the next day, picked out a newly bought formal suit, and even combed his hair more docilely than usual. When he arrived at the studio, he found that everyone except him was wearing Casual clothes made him feel like an idiot who dressed up to go to an opera, only to step into a vegetable market around the corner.

Aiba explained that their game R&D department is usually so casual. Chi Yao was dubious, but the other party patted him on the shoulder solemnly and said, "Too much will affect the output of inspiration."

As soon as the words were finished, Aiba caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, and immediately put away his hippie smiling expression, a dozen people stood in a row, all respectfully welcoming the leader to inspect.

Chi Yao was used to putting on a stiff face and not responding, but he was thinking in his heart that this work was done very quickly.

Feng Luyi didn't put on airs, he just informed them about the meeting at noon, his eyes glanced at Chi Yao inadvertently, and he seemed to smile.

Of course Chi Yao knew that it was enough for an assistant to notify him about a meeting. Feng Luyi came to see him specially, and the two exchanged glances tacitly.

In fact, the following days can be regarded as [-]% smooth. The team has joined many top figures in this field. Not only was he not discriminated against as a newcomer, but he was taught a lot of things and benefited a lot. The proposed plan Can also get pertinent evaluation and effective guidance.

The rest of the trouble was related to Feng Luyi. Except for meeting him on the first day, he rarely interacted with him in the company.

After all, he is in a high position, and he still has a lot of things to do. In reality, the CEO is not as romantic as in soap operas.

Occasionally, when they had dinner together after get off work, Chi Yao wanted to hint a few times several times, but he still didn't say it.

If you really say it, it looks like an office romance in a fantasy soap opera, with a little bit of pornography mixed in.

Invisibly, the little daughter-in-law changed.

His colleagues are all straight men, no one can see his strangeness.

Until Wen Yuelai came to visit the class one day, seeing his absent-minded appearance, he could see clearly at a glance, and joked: "I kind of know why your pheromone is lemon, it's really sour."

Chi Yao touched the gland in embarrassment, and decided to try a more expensive inhibitor, so as not to keep dreaming in broad daylight.

Fortunately, the ever-increasing progress of the project quickly squeezed his leisure time, and he was no longer sad when he was busy. He even reported to the travel agency less and less, and no one urged him anyway.

Although he is busy, the uneasiness in his heart has a foothold, and everyone can feel that his condition is getting better day by day, he is no longer sullen, and sometimes he jokes a little bit.

......

After more than a year of hard work, the launch of the game in major shopping malls has finally been put on the agenda. Although it was blocked in the review due to a small amount of violent and bloody elements during the period, it was always safe and sound.

Chi Yao flipped through the documents and felt a little emotional. When he watched the demo of this puzzle game at the exhibition, he absolutely did not expect that after connecting the clues one by one and clearing the level step by step, the murderer he found was actually The protagonist himself.

Or rather, the future self.

The protagonist who died in the cell at the beginning did not experience a murder, but just used killing himself as a metaphor to symbolize a new life.

The game plot is over, but the story of the people in the game has just begun. Therefore, the official name of Code N's final launch is taken as Mobius, a ring that is both cyclical and infinite.

It is a coincidence that the protagonist died in a prison cell, not to mention that the puzzle level is filled with all kinds of things he is familiar with. The real intention of Von Louis to let him join the team is already self-evident.

Verbal and material comforting effects are limited, so Feng Louis chose a more subtle way to get Chi Yao himself involved, and really find a way out of the past.

So this way out is very simple, just two words: self-help.

But Chi Yao also understood that the quagmire was vast, and without Feng Luyi's guidance, he would probably still be looking for a direction.

He added another cube of sugar to the latte, staring at the milk froth on the cup, and frowned.

Finally started to get used to the sweet taste.

Even looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows to see the same scenery for ten years, I have tasted something new.

He is being reborn.

……

After the press conference, it was followed by a commendation meeting within the company, where some gifts were distributed as rewards.

Chi Yao was a little surprised. He thought that the bonus would be enough, but he didn't expect such benefits.

He also accidentally saw the Patek Philippe 7511 watch on the gift list held by the assistant, but it was not something that could be bought for tens of thousands on a second-hand website, but brand new.

It takes a lot of effort to get a new version of a watch that has been out of production for many years, and it is not just a matter of money.Chi Yao's accumulated dissatisfaction all of a sudden disappeared, and he was flattered instead.

Even if they get acquainted in private, they still have a superior-subordinate relationship on the surface. Isn't this a bit too shameless?

Do you want to take this opportunity to express your love again?

Chi Yao's face was blushing and her heart was pounding because of her brain.

Then--

He was immediately slapped in the face mercilessly.

Looking at Aiba whose eyes lit up when his name was said, Chi Yao's expression, it's not an exaggeration to say that he forced a smile.

However, Aiba has never been very discerning, and he only wants to share the joy with his friends, "Oh my god, I just mentioned a few words in the small group in our studio, how did the boss know that I want to give this watch to my sister for her birthday?" A gift? It's too expensive, I'm a bit afraid to accept it..."

Chi Yao glanced around for a week, and found that Feng Luyi was a little absent-minded tonight. After answering the phone call, he left midway without any explanation.

He became more and more dissatisfied, and said coldly: "Because you are a veteran member of the studio, of course the boss will reward you well."

Xiang Ye could also hear his taste now, stopped chattering, and asked in a low voice: "Are you unhappy, Xiao Chi?"

Chi Yao shook his head and smiled, "It's okay, I'm a little tired, I'll go home and rest first."

"But I haven't heard your name yet! Won't you wait any longer?"

Chi Yao's footsteps were fast, leaving Aiba's shouts far behind. He never thought that he would have a day when he would be affectionate.

Even if Feng Luyi asks him to apologize this time, he will not forgive easily.

Chi Yao was thinking like this, and when he came to the gate of the office building, he just stepped out of his left foot when he suddenly felt a glare of light and a slight click.

is the shutter of the camera.

Subconsciously, Chi Yao's legs were weak, and he immediately comforted himself that the media reporters must have followed Feng Luyi at the press conference without giving up.

He habitually wanted to put on the mask again, but a microphone was handed to him unexpectedly, like a black muzzle, emitting a sharp whistling electrical noise, drowning out the reporter's voice, his body stiffened instantly, his scalp tingling Hemp, as if frozen in place.

He still heard the words he was most afraid of uttered between the two lips that were quickly opened and closed.

"Nine years ago..."

"Gland transplantation..."

After regaining consciousness, he ran upstairs again. The number of the elevator was stuck on the top floor, and Chi Yao's back was soaked in cold sweat. Although the person chasing him was a human being, in Chi Yao's eyes, he was more than anyone else. Shura evil spirits are scary.

If he is caught, he may fall short again this year.

All efforts will be branded as ex-criminals, and under the hijack of public opinion, will be written off.

Absolutely not, he finally struggled to climb out of the quagmire, how could he be dragged back again.

He didn't have time to think about why such a sudden change happened, and he only had the idea of ​​self-help in his heart.

Chi Yao slammed his fist hard on the elevator buttons, turned his head and fled to the stairs. The office building is dozens of floors high. extreme.

Eventually, even the stairs come to an end.

He pushed open one of the rooms on the top floor, and later realized that it was Feng Louis' office.

He instinctively turned to the only person who could provide him with a sense of security.

Feng Luyi was reading a newspaper, and was very surprised to see him barging in, and asked, "Brother Chi, aren't you attending the commendation meeting downstairs?"

Chi Yao didn't have time to explain, and crawled under his table like a frightened cat, hugging Feng Luyi's knees, the two of them fit together tightly, so Feng Luyi could clearly feel that the young man was trembling uncontrollably , while clenching his teeth, did not let out any sound.

The reporters who followed soon followed. For some reason, they were unimpeded and not stopped by the security guards and assistants.

Chi Yao was even more frightened, so he hugged even tighter, his limbs were like rootless vines, entangled with the only tree.

At this moment, even Feng Luyi's body began to tense up. He looked down at Chi Yao's unbuttoned shirt while running. There was a thin pinkness inside, and the lavender blood vessels were particularly conspicuous on the fair skin. And charming.

He felt strange.

Nine years of time can undoubtedly leave traces of wastage on a person, not to mention that Chi Yao is tired of making ends meet and has no mind to take care of his skin.

Chi Yao is no longer the ornamental lemon vine that grows wantonly in the greenhouse, but it still blooms flowers that make his heart flutter.

Do limes bloom too?

he does not know.

All he knew was that the base of his tongue was itching, and he tried his best to hold back the impulse in his heart.

He wanted to drag the person out, mark the opponent's body with his canine teeth, and ripen the green buds into fruits, proving that Chi Yao was his property.

Feng Luyi's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he said slowly, "Brother Chi, can you come out first?"

Chi Yao naturally refused with a percentage. He could no longer retreat, and covered his ears in a self-deceiving manner, preventing any words from entering his mind, and preventing any harm from falling on his body.

He touched Feng Luyi's leg with his cheek flatteringly, his eyes were wide open, his eyes were sharp, and the tails of his eyes were raised, and he looked aloof when he was not smiling.

But now the innocent and ignorant expression neutralized this spirit, just right, Feng Luyi couldn't help but soften his heart.

He sighed softly, and while chatting with the reporter as if in compromise, he reached under the table and stroked the startled cat's chin and cheek.

It is said that a cat is an animal that has not yet been domesticated, but when petted, it behaves similarly to a dog.

The reporter didn't linger for too long, and left, seemingly satisfied. Chi Yao didn't know what they were talking about, and after confirming that there were only two people left in the room, he slowly crawled out from under the table.

Feng Luyi wiped away the wet tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingertips, and Chi Yao said incoherently: "No, this place is no longer safe, I have to resign tomorrow."

Feng Louis shook his head slightly, and handed him the newspaper he was reading just now.

Chi Yao's eyes fell dully, and then he froze.

This is a new issue that just came out this morning. It is a relatively authoritative and well-known newspaper, and most of it publishes some legal news.

And the big event occupying the main page this time is to overturn an old case.

It was the case of gland transplantation that the reporter mentioned when we were downstairs just now.

In other words, the phone call in the middle of the commendation meeting was from the media. Feng Luyi's original plan was to take advantage of the popularity of the game's release to push the boat along the way and declare Chi Yao's innocence.

This is the gift for Chi Yao.

It is also what he needs most.

But extremes lead to opposites, too perfect plans always go wrong, Chi Yao was too nervous and made such an oolong.

Fortunately, the overall situation has been settled, and this oolong did not affect anything.

Chi Yao couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes and read the words carefully.

It turned out that Feng Luyi had been secretly interviewed by many media, told the ins and outs of the year, and truthfully explained that the gland transplant was not proposed by Chi Yao, and that he was also a victim.

However, it's not 100% true.

For example, von Louis said that the reason why he was willing to donate the glands to Chi Yao was because the two were in a relationship at the time.

To prove this point, a photo was posted in the lower right corner of the report.

To be precise, it is not a photo, but a screenshot of the video of the night he and Chi Yao went swimming together at night.

The camera is placed by the pool, and they are standing in the deep water area. Under the zoom, the faces of the two are a little blurred, but they can still clearly see that they are kissing.

The texture of the sky in the background is very soft, and the morning light renders the stepped swimming pool into a gradient jewel, which is even more magnificent than the beautified scene in the game.

No matter who it is, seeing this photo, they will be convinced of the fact that the two are in love.

Chi Yao threw the newspaper far away as if his hand was burned, and muttered in a low voice, "There is no legal news that uses this kind of photo to make a sensation...and when did I establish a relationship with you?"

"Are you sure you can do it now?"

"what?"

Chi Yao raised his head suddenly and found that Feng Luyi was looking at him intently, "I said, confirm the relationship now, would you like to?"

Chi Yao was still in a daze, he had expected Feng Luyi's confession tonight, but when this moment really came, he hesitated.

He was really frightened by what happened just now, and at the same time realized that with a public figure like Feng Luyi, this kind of thing will be indispensable in the future, and he has been hiding in the gutter for too long, not sure if he can successfully adapt.

But Feng Luyi came to where he is today because of him, so Chi Yao has no position to refuse.

He is caught in a seemingly unsolvable paradox.

As for Feng Luyi, even though his face was calm, he was also very nervous.

He admitted that he wanted to take advantage of others. Chi Yao's psychological defense is now the weakest, and this is the most suitable time to confess. He has been enduring the urge to showdown all year, just for this moment.

He already has things that most people in the world can't have in this life, including money and status.

But at this moment, he seems to have become that humble boy again, praying that the sun will run into his arms without any hesitation.

However, the office was eerily quiet, only the sound of the second hand mechanically turning.

After a long time, Chi Yao lowered his eyes, picked up the newspaper, carefully folded it into a small square like a handkerchief, and put it in his close-fitting clothes.

"I'm grateful for what you've done for me, but I'm sorry, give me a little more time to think about it."

This result was within Feng Luyi's expectation, and he readily agreed, concealing the disappointment in his eyes calmly, and said nonchalantly, "Okay, see you tomorrow."

"I may not see you tomorrow. There must be reporters staying here recently." Chi Yao twisted his fingers, "So I want to go back to the travel agency to avoid the limelight. It just happened that a customer booked my tour group before, and it has been delayed long enough."

Feng Luyi didn't say anything else, he got up and opened the door for Chi Yao.
