After a few days, just like Chen Lian Dong revealed, Huo Yuan Guang started to claim that he was sick and found an excuse to hand over the Huang Yi Yin Xiang construction project back to Huo Ming Cheng. The latter accepted it, a decision made to beat him at his own game.

A few days later, the meeting for the board members arrived. Huo Ming Cheng thought about it and then ordered down the chain of command,

“The construction can pause for today. Let the workers get their pay and have a day off.”

If Huo Yuan Guang was smart, he would choose this time to move. As long as it didn’t involve any human lives when the construction site collapses, when he succeeds the Huo business, with all his power and all the resources at hand, he could recover from the situation, keeping the losses minimal.

Feng Jie’s company finally completed their interior renovations, and the program Lu Qi designed was budding with growth. The APP design had a dusty blue background with M&E in white letters, making it look very sleek and easy on the eyes.

Lu Qi put the majority of the focus on the opening display, using sci fi art to create a galaxy of stars, making it so that when you first open the app, meteor showers would fly past the screen in 1.5 seconds, which were perfectly timed, not too short, not too long.

“You did it kid! Just a few days and it’s already this brilliant. It’s the first time that I thought I’m really good at picking people.”

Feng Jie patted Lu Qi’s shoulder, obviously in a satisfied mood, so satisfied that he could not be more satisfied. Each person that he hired had their own faults and strengths, but only Lu Qi, only he seemed like he could do anything. From the small issues to the big ones, he can clear all of them.

“It’s not that your eyesight is good, it’s my panda eyes that are good.”

Lu Qi took a sip of coffee to stay awake. There was indeed some blackness under his eyes. Chang Xuan’s desk was next to Lu Qi’s, so when he heard this, he scooted closer to point at the budding beard on his chin and his eyes that were blacker than a panda’s,

“Qi-Ge, you’re the best, you can even brew coffee. These past two days, I’ve just been chewing on the coffee powder.”

Chang Zuan had asked for exemption from his classes and is now calling the office his home. Who knows how long he has not brushed his teeth or his hair for? You couldn’t tell that he used to look like a refreshing student before this. Lu Qi emotionlessly pushed him aside,

“Please use all the years before you die young to remind yourself in your next lifetime to never touch a computer.”

Feng Jie said,

“Come on, don’t say that. Choose one path, love that path.”

He ordered take-out from a restaurant for everyone at the office, to pay back their hard efforts these past couple of days. Everyone gathered together, conversing and eating, laughing and talking, making it extremely lively in the office. Someone turned on their computer to catch up on their tv shows, and a news article popped out at them. Looking at the headline, they couldn’t help but gasp,

“The construction site for Huang Yi Ying Xiang collapsed? I was even planning to use my savings to buy an apartment there. Seems like the quality isn’t that good.”

Hearing this, Lu Qi, who was eating, paused his movements and heard the people beside him say,

“The Huo’s are the head of the capital real estate business. They couldn’t have a problem right? This is such bad luck, thankfully no one was hurt, otherwise….. huhu.”

Shen Yang Yang said,

“This was only the site collapsing, and the media reported it like this. If there were actually human lives involved, it’d probably be the headline for a good many days. I just looked it up, the stocks for Huo’s have dropped quite a bit.”

As they were talking, they suddenly saw Lu Qi put down his box of food and stand up,
