Moved to Golden Courtyard

"Come to think of it, we've known each other for half a year now. Alicia should know me very well, right? Whether it's my abilities or my personality."

Alicia nodded affirmatively. She was familiar with not only Xu Qi, but everyone in the Golden Courtyard.

"But Bronya is different. Tonight she came here on impulse, hoping to get my help. So have you ever thought about a question, what should I do if my abilities don't match?"

"But Xu Qi..."

"You see, it's because you're familiar with me that you think I'm capable of doing this, but she's obviously not familiar with me..."

Xu Qi let out a long sigh.

"If I really agree, then the pressure will be huge because I will want to respond to the expectations and the importance the other party places on me.

Honestly... I can’t afford it.”

"But Xu Qi."

"Ok?"

Alicia turned sideways and looked at Xu Qi seriously.

"Human beings only need to respond to their own expectations."

Xu Qi was stunned, his mouth slightly opened, immersed in Alicia's words for a long time, and finally sighed. I was actually taught a lesson by her...

"What's wrong? You seem to have been thinking about it for a long time. Do you think what I said is right?"

"Yes~~Yes~~" Xu Qi reached out and rubbed Alicia's little head, "As expected of a big online anchor, you speak in a set way. I am almost moved by you."

"Hehe?~~"

Humans just need to respond to their own expectations...that's it.

So correct that it cannot be refuted.

"Okay, my teacher Alicia, it's so late, isn't it time to go to bed?"

"Huh?... Ah! It's almost twelve o'clock!"

"Staying up late is the natural enemy of girls - I think you are the one who said that."

"Hmph! ...Good night."

"Good night, Alicia."

Watching the girl go upstairs, Xu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the phone screen lights up and I click it to take a look.

Xin: I have obtained the relevant investigation reports on 914. They are in my USB drive. If you want them, please find a time to meet, not in the company.

Xu Qi read this passage expressionlessly and turned off his phone silently.

Char...

18. Two-timing? Are you looking down on me?

"To be honest, if the characters and the plot are really going according to what you set, then I think there is no problem in removing the female lead and letting the second male lead become the female lead."

"But unfortunately they are men, so they can only be close friends."

"Yes... they are close friends, but in your writing, you make them become enemies because of a war caused by an almost ridiculous reason."

"And..." Xu Qi said coldly: "They both killed each other's best friends."

……

Bronya crossed her arms across her chest. She was sitting on Xu Qi's bed, holding a laptop in her hands, and she let out a long sigh.

“You really dare to write this… My mind was completely taken over by hatred, and the only thought left in my mind was to kill the other person.

No matter how close a friend we were before, at this moment, of course, nothing exists... You are a demon, right?"

Xu Qi shrugged.

"Compared to Zarahato, I am already very merciful."

Today is the third day that Bronya has come to the Golden Courtyard to discuss the plan with Xu Qi. It must be said that these two guys are the kind of people who can't sit still.

And they are all people with strong ability to get things done.

Xu Qi watched as a new Alahato plan was gradually being perfected on Bronya's computer.

This feeling... can be said to be quite wonderful.

"I have to thank little Grayshu." Bronya took out a drawing from her side, which showed a beautiful woman like a princess.

"Long pink hair, a soft face, gentle yet with a strong sense of conviction and purpose..."

Bronya tilted her head, looked at Xu Qi jokingly and said, "Are you planning to...play both sides?"

Xu Qi was sitting at his desk. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Two? Are you looking down on me?"

"Ah..." Bronya held her forehead with one hand and sighed, "This person is really hopeless." "Why didn't I see that you were such a scumbag that day."

Of course, the two were just joking with each other.

In fact, when Xu Qi received the manuscript from Grayshu, he also felt that... there was no greater coincidence in the world than this.

"It's like a combination of Alicia and Mei..."

"It should be said that you and Mei had a boy, and then you and Alicia had a girl, and then the daughter between the two of them looked more or less like this."

"What kind of awful ethical joke is this... You better stop it now."

Putting the notebook aside, Bronya suddenly jumped off the bed and moved closer to Xu Qi.

At this time, Bronya was still dressed as an office lady. According to her, it was too troublesome to change clothes when going to and from work, so she just kept wearing them.

One hand was supporting the table, and the other hand was resting on the back of Xu Qi's chair. He leaned down, and even a few strands of silver-white hair swayed down and brushed against Xu Qi's cheek, which was a little itchy...

Xu Qi immediately froze in his seat, not daring to move at all.

Even though he is very good at talking and can say all kinds of dirty words, when he is teased by a sexy older sister, he can be said to be completely defeated.

"Really? What if I just like to play?"

Then you can have fun... But I can't even say this...

"Hmph~" With a smile on her lips, Bronya seemed to feel the stiffness of Xu Qi's body at the moment. It was really...an easy-to-understand expression.

She didn't go too far, she retreated briefly and sat back on Xu Qi's bed.

This also made Xu Qi breathe a sigh of relief.

My sister's aura is too strong...

Lifting her sleeves and looking at her watch, Bronya said, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. The company has a meeting this afternoon, so I have to go back first."

Xu Qi tilted his head to indicate that it was okay.

"I say..." Bronya stood up and lifted her long silver hair behind her. Her handsome appearance made Xu Qi unable to take his eyes off her.

"Although it's strange for me to say this, I'm pretty good-looking and have a pretty good figure."

Xu Qi: …

"You have been staying in your room these past few days. Don't have any improper or misunderstood thoughts about me, your sister. Got it?"

Xu Qi covered his forehead with one hand, imitating Bronya's previous actions, and let out a desperate sigh.

No way...

"But..." Bronya opened the door and winked at Xu Qi before leaving. "If you masturbate with the bed sheets that smell like me, I can't do anything about it."

"That's enough! I really wouldn't do such a thing!"

This was the first time that Xu Qi was teased like this by another woman after he matured mentally - how inappropriate!

This woman...is she actually so open after getting to know me?!

As expected of an old lady, a pure and innocent virgin like me is no match for her...

Shaking his head, taking a short rest, tidying up the drawings in the room, Xu Qi walked out of the house.

At this time in the living room, Master Qian was preparing dinner, and Kevin and Kosmo were playing games. It was rare for you to see Kevin on a Saturday.

But speaking of it... Bronya, is she going to have a meeting at the company on Saturday too?

Just like Kevin.

The picture on the LCD screen showed two people playing Street Fighter 4, Ryu versus Ryu. Kevin had all the points and he should win this time.

Especially Kosmo - he looked like he couldn't keep his cool and calm. How could you fight Kevin like this...

Shaking his head and calculating the time, Xu Qi asked, "Where are the others?"

It was after this question was uttered that Kevin killed Kosmo with one punch.

Winner——Coder!

"Ah!!... Lost again!!!" This may be the only time you see Kosmo so crazy.

Kevin put down the controller, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"Fu Hua is accompanying Ai Li in the outdoor live broadcast, Ying is still working overtime, and Abonya seems to be going to church to pray today. The others should be upstairs."

It’s really fulfilling...everyone.

"I'm going out to meet someone, so I won't be home for dinner tonight. You don't have to wait for me."

"OK."

The door closed, and Kevin glanced at Kosmo. This kid was still recalling and mumbling about the previous game... He was really persistent...

······

Shining Qi Qi: I’m going to Xujiahui now.

Heart: OK.

After a brief communication, Xu Qi took a deep breath and left.

……

There is a famous long corridor in the Xujiahui subway station, where stands a bronze statue of the father of the Shanghai subway. The agreed location is here.

Xu Qi looked at the bronze statue not far away and laughed out loud - I must love the company so much to choose this as the meeting place.

"You are more punctual than I thought, Mr. Xu."

A familiar voice came from behind him, and Xu Qi turned around. What he saw was, of course, an acquaintance of his in the company, and definitely an unexpected acquaintance - Xin An.

"You should have brought all the materials for 914. Don't let me down this time."

19. It's you! Padova!

In the ubiquitous Starbucks, Xin An leaned back in his chair, holding a Frappuccino of unknown flavor, and looked outside through the huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of him.

The expression on his face showed no joy or other emotions, and it even looked a little strange.

Opposite her, Xu Qi was using his laptop to check the data in her USB drive.

The man looked very focused and serious, but this was a scene that Xin'an rarely saw.

Her appearance is actually quite outstanding. When she was in college, she was considered the most beautiful girl in the school, and there was no shortage of suitors at work.

Few people can work so calmly when they are alone with her...

Even the older leaders were no match for him - the way they looked at him even made Xin'an feel a little nauseous.

But... this guy who completely treats her as air will not be liked by Xin'an either.

In this girl's world, she should of course be the protagonist, and no one can ignore her or disregard her - no!

Of course, Xu Qi didn't care what this woman was thinking. He was completely focused on the information Xin'an had compiled about the 914 brake failure incident.

Although this woman had been in his project team, after Li Fu took over, he did not even bother to give her any face and just threw himself into her arms.

But it must be said that her professional ability is still strong.

With Xin'an around, those purely watery reports had long been filtered out, and what was presented to Xu Qi could be said to be all useful information.

As for why others are willing to help him...
