678 How to repay
Lightning King pushed open the door of the office and saw the Secretary, who was shouting for pancakes, standing at the office table. He looked at him in surprise.
“what are you doing here?” Lightning King was stunned.
“Have you finished eating?” The female secretary smiled and showed her employee card. you left in a hurry and left your employee card in your room. I thought you might have to work overtime later, so I brought it over.
“i was just about to send you a text message.” Her smile was as gentle as ever. After she finished speaking, she revealed a coquettish and resentful expression.”Why haven’t you gone to buy the fruit pancake? are you trying to starve me and the baby?”
lightning king scratched his head. ” it’s not easy to find pancakes. i don’t usually eat this. i won’t be back for a while. ” Do you want to go to the restaurant to eat something to fill your stomach?”
He revealed a concerned expression, sincere and nervous. “It won’t be good if the baby is hungry.”
The Secretary instinctively avoided his gaze. She tilted her head slightly and quickly turned back. She put away all her emotions and pretended to be angry.”I’ll be fine if I starve? She only thought about him all day … i don’t care, i just want to eat the fruit pancake. go and buy it for me, don’t come back if you can’t get it. ”
even pregnant women were so unreasonable … Lightning King muttered in his heart.
She had finally seized the opportunity to become a serf and a master. Usually, at work, he was her superior, and what she had to do was to be obedient, unconditionally. Most of the time, lightning King was the one who had the final say in life.
Finally, when she got pregnant, she started to become arrogant and ordered him around. She threw tantrums and threw tantrums at him, but he couldn’t do anything.
“I’ll go buy it now.” Lightning King smiled. He did not dislike her occasional rudeness and unreasonable behavior. Instead, he felt a little sweet.
After leaving his master and coming to baoze, he had been alone. The appearance of this woman, her approach, and her courtship were like the murmuring spring water, moistening his dry heart and giving him a home-like Harbor.
Soon, the harbor would be completed before the birth of the child.
He was about to leave the office, but when he turned around, he saw the computer’s indicator light from the corner of his eye. The computer screen was black, but the main computer was turned on.
Did I not turn off the computer?
Lightning King turned around and stepped forward. “I don’t think I turned off my computer?”
His gaze swept past the computer, and out of habit, he glanced at the cabinet behind the desk, where the safe was kept … Her pupils suddenly shrank. The cabinet door was half-closed and not locked.
Lightning King was about to say something when something cold and hard hit him in the back.
The next moment, ” whoosh, whoosh ” gunshots were heard. The bullets tore through his muscles, tore his heart, and came out of his chest. They embedded themselves in the wall.
Lightning King’s body trembled as if it was spasming, and then withered, losing the strength to stand.
The female secretary behind him opened her arms and hugged him, her face full of tears. “Why did you come back?”
The pupils and whites of lightning King’s eyes turned into bright lightning. The vitality of a senior employee gave him the remaining strength to fight back, but the female secretary easily scattered his Qi, and the lightning slowly stopped and disappeared.
there’s an inhibitor in the gun. Resisting will only speed up your death. I don’t want you to die yet, ” the Secretary said softly. I don’t want you to die before I finish.
The blood on lightning King’s rough face faded bit by bit, and he said hoarsely, ” “Who are you?”
“My identity is real, my name is real, including my feelings for you.” The Secretary put her chin on his shoulder and put her arms around his waist. “I only kept two things from you-I am not an orphan; I’m on the Board of Directors.”
I’m an intelligence officer trained by the Board of Directors. I entered baoze through the most formal channels. From the time I was a small employee, my task had been determined, and that was to get close to you.
“The Board of Directors asked me to gain your trust, your unreserved trust. I know they want me to seduce you.”
“I’ve really wronged you!” Lightning King’s voice was hoarse, and there was bloody phlegm stuck in his throat.
I didn’t want to at first. the Secretary pressed her face against his, her eyes gentle. but later, I found that your heart was different from your rough appearance. It was delicate and gentle, considerate, mature and steady, serious and wise.
I kept looking for your strengths, trying to convince myself that it’s not. grievance to be with such a man … Gradually, I started to like you.”
“I’m not lying to comfort you. If I didn’t really love you, I wouldn’t have gotten pregnant. There was a period of time when I was in great pain. I knew that there would be no future between us. Either you kill me, or I kill you. But I can’t bear to see you die. That’s why I’ve decided to give birth to a child for you. He’ll be the continuation of your life, and he’ll accompany me in your place in the future.”
“When I woke up this morning, my eyelids kept twitching, and I felt uneasy. I had a premonition that something bad was going to happen. As expected, I received an order from the Board of Directors at noon to get ready for action.”
“Board of Directors?” Lightning King swallowed the bloody phlegm hard to make his voice clearer. He resisted the fatigue and dizziness. it’s someone on the Board of Directors, right? I’m about to die, and you’re still so tight-lipped? ”
“Who’s on the Board of Directors? I can roughly guess that it’s none other than the ones with the most power. Chairman Wang and Chairman yang, the former was the big boss’s wife, so it was most likely Chairman yang. It’s the group led by him, right?”
“Only doldie can deploy subordinates at this level. Ha, what’s your purpose?” he asked.
“Honey, why don’t you tell me why the video is kept in your safe?” Seeing that he was silent, the Secretary sighed. forget it. In a few minutes, they will be transmitted from your computer, and my mission will be completed.
actually, I don’t think this video is worth exposing. She said.
Lightning King opened his mouth, but he couldn’t say anything. His consciousness was getting dizzier and dizzier, and his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn’t open them.
Sensing that his life was slipping away and he was about to come to an end, the Secretary’s calmness and decisiveness faded. why did you come back? I sent you away to buy pancakes to save your life.
“But why did you come back?”
Her tears continued to fall, and her entire face was covered in tear stains.
The Secretary choked. if you had any selfish motives, I wouldn’t have gone to the extreme today. But I know that you can’t betray Qin ze. What does he have that is worthy of your loyalty?”
Lightning King’s eyelids twitched, and the past a few years ago suddenly flashed in his mind.
It was said that lightning King was a late bloomer. After entering baoze, not only did his cultivation advance by leaps and bounds, but he also became the head of baoze’s headquarters and reached the peak of his life.
In fact, five years ago, the lightning King was a dull disciple in the Taoist sect who was apprenticed to a small sect. Because of his ordinary talent, he didn’t know how to say good things and was thrown into a corner by his master in a few years.
He had been in the sect for almost ten years, and the cultivation of the disciples who entered the sect later than him had surpassed him.
He was unknown in the sect, and sometimes he would be laughed at and teased by his fellow disciples, saying that he only grew taller but didn’t increase his cultivation. Because he always read some miscellaneous books and didn’t like to study Daoist techniques, his master would occasionally use him as a negative example and scold him in front of his fellow disciples.
One day, after sweeping the floor, he sat in front of the temple to read a book. The sun was shining brightly that day, the shadows of the trees were mottled, and the mountain brought a fresh breeze. He was entranced by the sight until a shadow came over and blocked the mottled sunlight.
“Business management? You’re a Daoist priest and you’re reading business management?”
Lightning King looked up and saw a young man with both hands in his pockets, a cigarette in his mouth, standing at the bottom of the steps and examining him.
Lightning King didn’t care. In such a warm season, there were many tourists climbing the mountain to offer incense. This young man should also be a visitor who went up the mountain to play.
“Who’s the best fighter here? I’m here to cause trouble … No, I’m here for a mission.” The young man said.
Lightning King suddenly became alert and realized that the young man was not a tourist, but a demon descendant.
He carefully kept the book and flattened the wrinkles on the cover. The young man looked at it silently.
Lightning King led him up the mountain, and the young man followed behind him. With a cigarette in his mouth, he hummed a song:
On the 18th of that year, he stood at his alma mater’s dance party like a minion.
At that time, I swore with tears in my eyes that you must see me.
…..
Lightning King had remembered those lyrics for many years.
The young man left quickly. He was indeed here to cause trouble. His master, who was usually respected by lightning King, was ko-ed by the young man in one move. He spat out blood and asked,”who exactly are you?”
The young man replied,”you’ll know me if you watch more TV.”
His master once again vomited blood and asked,”what kind of grudge do you have against me?”
The young man said,”there’s no enmity between us. I just picked a soft persimmon to do the mission.”
The whole process took less than ten minutes, but when he passed by the dumbfounded lightning King, the young man said, ” “You don’t have much talent, but the way you read is like a vegetable that needs to be tied up. I admire you. The demon descendants ‘community is not suitable for you. If you want to renounce asceticism, you can come to my company to work.”
She even handed him a business card.
Within a few months, lightning King knew the identity of the young man. In the past few months, he had fought from south to north, punching the old folks ‘home and kicking the kindergarten. His reputation had risen and he had become a rising star in the demon descendants’ community.
One day, lightning King mustered his courage and bid farewell to his master, saying that he would go down the mountain to work.
His master asked him how he was going to support himself when he left the mountain.
Lightning King took out the business card, which was laughed at by his fellow disciples and rolled his eyes at his master.
“You would actually take an unintentional word as a promise?”
This was what they said.
Lightning King was tired of the days of cleaning and cooking. With the hope in his heart that had not been extinguished, he packed his luggage and left.
His master didn’t ask him to stay. After all, he was a useless disciple with no talent. It wasn’t a loss for him to leave. He just symbolically warned him not to do anything illegal.
His senior and junior brothers also came to send him off. They smiled and said, ” Oh, senior brother magnetite has gone down the mountain to make a fortune. Don’t forget us when you’re rich in the future.
There was a burst of laughter.
Lightning King carried a snakeskin bag, wearing a tattered Daoist robe, and came to the metropolis uneasily. He had spent all his money. It was too expensive to take a taxi in Shanghai. He walked from the train station to baoze and almost failed to enter the building.
He took out his business card and handed it to the security guard. The security guard didn’t chase him away and asked him to wait downstairs.
The big boss happened to be in the company that day, so he came down personally and patted him on the shoulder with a big smile. You’re really here. Come, come, come, let’s talk upstairs.
Lightning King entered the building cautiously, his legs trembling a little. He had never been to such a place, and he felt inferior.
Assessment, interview, meal, and accommodation arrangements.
Lightning King’s luck turned for the better. From then on, he rose to the position of head of the headquarters.
The big boss often said,”if the tree moves, it will die. If the man moves, he will live.” The best decision you made was to leave the sect.
Over the years, lightning King had often thought that if he had not met that young man in the spring season, he might still be doing the cleaning work in his sect.
He stood there like a minion.
The most worrying thing in his memory was the stupid Taoist in a tattered robe. He had stepped into the high-rise building in the city and the young man had come down to welcome him.
From the beginning to the end, he had no pity, no sympathy, no contempt.
“How can I repay you for treating me as a Kingdom Knight?” Lightning King closed his eyes and silently spat out words that only he could hear, ” “I’ll repay you with my life!”
