Chapter 3: CH 3

…..unexpectedly, he would still be humiliated about his ugly writing after falling apart for many years.

This was Ji Xingjue’s first thought.

Immediately after that, he reacted and put away his sloppy expression. “You’ve been monitoring me?”

Qi Qing indifferently scanned the application form, not in the least guilty at all: “So what?”

Ji Xingjue was choked by his righteous and arrogant appearance, and a cordial smile appeared: “So, Lord Marshal, why should I suddenly sign this kind of agreement with you? If you shake your head now, you may be able to hear the rushing water. No need to wait for the frozen river to thaw in the coming year.”

Qi Qing was still as immovable as a mountain, only slightly raising his eyebrows: “Eight blind dates a month, you don’t seem to hate marriage.” He showed the countdown on his terminal, “There are still thirty seconds left.”

After finishing speaking, he somewhat intentionally pointed to the application form in front of him.

Ji Xingjue felt very much unimaginable. “Do you think it’s possible for me to sign this kind of mindless thing with you for a sum of money?”

Qi Qing asked calmly: “Is it impossible?”

“I am not without a bottom line!”

Qi Qing was not in the least wavering: “I heard that the general who supported this project is currently not in the Imperial Capital.”

“Are you threatening me?”

“Ten seconds.”

“…FOR SEVERAL BILLIONS OF FUNDS, THAT’S ALL!”

Ji Xingjue stared at Qi Qing. At the last second of the countdown, too late to read the contents of the agreement, he angrily left a madly cursive signature.

Completely as expected.

The corner of Qi Qing’s mouth curved, as the tip of his pen flicked as he signed and stamped the approver of the application form, his set of actions went smoothly.

It was unknown how many eyes in the entire empire, starring, waiting to see the jokes in Ji Xingjue, expecting Qi Qing to take revenge against him.

He was ready to be beheaded and killed…

Ji Xingjue shook his head: “Now explain, what do you mean by asking me to sign this?”

Qi Qing didn’t reply. He picked up the agreement, looked at Ji Xingjue’s crooked signature, and with a snap of his left fingers, a suspension car appeared on the side of the rooftop, seeming to have been lying in wait for a long time.

“Come here.” Qi Qing picked up the agreement and strode towards the car.

Ji Xingjue had no choice but to make small runs to keep up with him: “Where to go?”

++++

The Imperial Capital was centered on the Imperial Palace, dividend to inner and outer ring. From the inside the ring, there were strategic locations of important government, royal relatives, and residences of high-ranking officials. The outer ring was the residence of ordinary people, with distinct classes, and was often criticized as “Corrupted and Fallen Behind” by the connotation of the Liberty Alliance.

People on the Ankara star always took pride in living in the inner ring and close to the palace.

Ji Xingjue couldn’t agree with this, at least after moving to the most remote outer ring, his sleep had improved a lot.

After taking some time getting home, Ji Xingjue first glanced at the small broken car parked downstairs, thanked the adjutant with satisfaction, swiped the code, and walked into the house.

Qi Qing’s actions were too magical, leaving him completely lost his ability to think. After taking a shower mechanically, he personally cooked a bowl of weird dishes with unknown ingredients. He sat at the table and finished it under the red warning from the household robot. Then he calmly said, “Thank you for your worry, I will not be poisoned.”

In the midst of everything that happened today, Ji Xingjue had a foreboding that he would suffer from insomnia. He found familiar sleeping pills and swallowed them with warm water.

He then lay down on the bed and voiced the terminal: “Turn on the Do Not Disturb mode, and then turn on the work mode at seven tomorrow morning. I have to sleep well.”

He hoped that after waking up, he would find that he was only dreaming.

The author has something to say:

Ji Xingjue: Though I don’t understand, I seem to have received a shock.
