Chapter 109
As Christmas approached, many shopping malls began to hold discounts and promotions. People who obviously did not believe in Christianity were also encouraged by the Christmas songs played on the street to warm up their festive feelings.
When Yan Jiu was taking the subway home, he accidentally saw an advertisement broadcast to XMALL on the subway video.Hundreds of cosplayers wearing various costumes of strange characters played flash mob in the mall, and several of them were zombies, whose images were surprisingly realistic.
The little girls standing next to Yan Jiu watched and discussed, full of anticipation for the XMALL Christmas event.
This shopping mall, which was originally positioned as a mid-to-high-end shopping mall, quickly changed its appearance after foreign investment into a trend-setting place. Top fashion brands, high-street brands, and various large-scale COSPLAY activities are held from time to time. The "haunted" news at the beginning of the opening, On the contrary, it became a hype news, and XMALL quickly became famous in the hearts of the discerning young people in G City, and now the flow of people even surpassed the long-running G City Department Store nearby.
Yan Jiu stared at the zombie coser who was being interviewed by the reporter. The makeup of the other party was exquisite and realistic. If he didn't speak, appearing in the dark would really scare people.
People who know the truth of the XMALL Yinbing incident have to be convinced by the operating methods of these Hong Kong businessmen.
Even Wang Hongyue, who suffered a loss, had no choice but to admit defeat when he saw the sales report of the mall.The opponent came prepared, pressing every step of the way, and more importantly, even the power struggle had the upper hand, Wang Hongyue was powerless to parry.
Yan Jiu didn't know much about commercial wars, and Qiao Yuan just talked about this kind of thing with him as ordinary gossip, but just hearing the story made Yan Jiu's heart skip a beat.What if those people use such means to deal with the Qiao family?This kind of situation is a "lose" for anyone, right?
"We need to divide the object," Qiao Yuan said lazily. "There must be signs of this kind of thing beforehand. Wang Hongyue only earned his current family property by virtue of his father's power. My grandpa, it's hard to say whether he wins or loses, but he must lose a layer of skin first."
"Your grandfather is really powerful." Yan Jiu felt admiration from the bottom of his heart.Not to mention his means, just his calm demeanor convinced him.
The corner of Qiao Yuan's mouth twitched, his expression subtle.
He is sure that the old man already knows about Yan Jiu's cohabitation with him, but he has not raised any objections so far.He didn't think that the old man had acquiesced in their relationship, but just like what Qiao Xia said, the old man was actually using this excuse to make him uneasy, and quietly lured his grandson to continue working for the Qiao family.
If possible, he hoped that he would never be an enemy of grandpa.
After the Yin Soldier incident, although many ascetics inquired about who invited the Yin Soldier from various channels, the only people who actually witnessed the scene were the Fang Family Celestial Master and the people from the Special Investigation Department. It is absolutely impossible for the Fang Family to tell No one in the Special Investigation Department dared to ask about the fact that they kicked away a guide, so Yan Jiu's identity was kept very well kept secret.
It's just that Qiao Yuan also knows that Yan Jiu, who is next to him, will be noticed sooner or later as he is the key object of suspicion.
Although the bond of lover will firmly lock Yan Jiu, but in the future he will inevitably face the choice of a new way out.
With Qiao Yuan being identified as the successor of the Qiao family, he has to put more energy into doing business, and his status as a monk will gradually be discarded. The current third young master of G City will sooner or later change his name.
His life will be farther and farther away from the things in the underworld, and his behavior of forcibly binding Yan Jiu will become meaningless.
Yes, it was him who became meaningless to Yan Jiu.
When Qiao Yuan realized this, he couldn't sleep almost all night.He hugged the hamster in his arms tightly, and even woke up the sleeping person several times without realizing it.
Life is short but full of variables. When he was very young, he only wanted to become stronger and kill all the ghosts and monsters who dared to bully him. When he first became a teacher, he didn't have much obsession with this world. He lived as he wanted. His attitude, when he got older, he knew which responsibilities he could not shirk, so he had to put away his sharp edges and arrogance, and when he realized it, he had been pushed away from the life he expected by reality.
He can be as self-centered as before, but human beings are a social animal. You think you are not bound by anything, but your life experience will keep playing with your three views, and in the end you will still become like All living beings are walking on a seemingly ordinary path.
A person's maturity begins with his awareness of the sense of responsibility, but this sense of responsibility prevents Qiao Yuan from fulfilling his promise to protect Yan Jiu for the rest of his life.
So when Qiao Xia came again to urge Yan Jiu to go to the Special Investigation Office, he finally sat down, pinched Yan Jiu's ear, and said, "Go."
If he can no longer be Yan Jiu's patron saint, then at least let him be in a place within his reach, and watch him become stronger with his own eyes, so strong that he can make himself feel at ease.
He looked at Yan Jiu's dazed look and smiled.
"What if one day you ask me for help and I can't hear you? I can at least trust the people in the Special Investigation Department. When I can't be your protector, you have to get used to someone else coming to save you..." He gently As he spoke, his tone was unprecedentedly gentle.
Yan Jiu stared at the man in front of him.
So far, he has known Qiao Yuan for one year and three months. In just over a year, he has watched him change from an arrogant and domineering playboy to the veritable Young Master Qiao today.
Qiao Yuan always said, Yan Xiaojiu, your growth is gratifying, has he really looked at himself seriously?
"If I say one day, I'll protect you, will you think I'm too overreaching?" He asked back.
Qiao Yuan raised the corners of his mouth moderately. "Okay." He was waiting for this sentence, and his heart had long been carried away, but there was no obvious expression on his face: "I am waiting for you to be like me now, when I need you, you will always be there Appear."
"I'm sure I can!" Being affirmed by Qiao Yuan for the first time, Yan Jiu grabbed his hand excitedly, "If I really entered the Special Investigation Department, I will work hard, and I won't be such a waste like now, no I will let you waste your life to wake me up again, and I will not let you get hurt for me again..."
Qiao Yuan bit the corner of his lip, not to let himself smile too complacently.
Everything he did was not in vain. What is the emotional shackles of a lover? He wants to use all the moral shackles and reality shackles to lock this hamster who has no resistance to himself firmly.
In this way, no matter who you Yan Jiu are or what your identity is, I won't be afraid that I won't find you back.
