Chapter 209 Preaching
Xiao Xiao's reaction made Lin Song certain that Xiao Xiao was the one who messed up the contract, but why did he target him? He didn't do anything wrong.

Since Qi Liancheng wants to come to this company, with his abilities, no matter which company it is, they will try their best to get him in, right?
However, Lin Song didn’t understand the twists and turns as to why it turned out like this.

"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself." Lin Song said this to Xiao Xiao and walked away from Xiao Xiao in a swagger.

Xiao Xiao's face darkened, and his hatred for Lin Song increased.

But now he had no way to target Lin Song anymore, and for the time being he could only bury this hatred in his heart.

After a while, Ling Zhuoqun came out of the office with a smile on his face. Before leaving, he glanced at himself intentionally or unintentionally, which made Qiu Yanzhi's eyes fall on him as well.

Xiao Xiao quickly lowered his head and pretended to be busy.

When Ling Zhuoqun said with a smile that he was leaving and Qiu Yanzhi was going to see him off, Xiao Xiao finally relaxed the breath that had been stuck in his throat.

However, when Qiu Yanzhi came back, his cold gaze fell on Xiao Xiao again, which made Xiao Xiao alert and look at Qiu Yanzhi.

"Boss." Xiao Xiao suddenly sat up from his chair. The bench at this moment seemed to be burned by flames, so Xiao Xiao didn't dare to sit down.

"Come to the office." There was no trace of sadness or joy in Qiu Yanzhi's tone.

However, Xiao Xiao knew that Qiu Yanzhi was angry, and he was afraid that his good days were about to end...

Soon, Xiao came out of the office with a gray expression on his face.

He had worked diligently in this company for half his life, and even if he had no credit, he had worked hard. However, just because he targeted Lin Song, he actually received a warning from his boss.

He said that this little trick would not happen again, and if I made a mistake again under his nose in the future, he would not forgive me.

Xiao Xiao could only keep admitting his mistakes. After get off work, he quickly called Qi Liancheng and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qi, our company is not hiring for the time being. You don't fit our company's philosophy. Please find another job."

Qi Liancheng was stunned. He had been happily waiting for the acceptance letter from the new company, but who would have thought that he would be stood up the day before the job was hired!
How could Qi Liancheng swallow this?
During the meal, Qi Liancheng also had a sullen face. Seeing that his son was unhappy, Qi Shutong called Qi Liancheng to his study.

"Liancheng, as a man, you should not show your emotions on your face. Your performance at the dinner table just now makes your father very dissatisfied." Qi Shutong said in a preaching tone with a stern face, holding a newspaper in his hand.

Qi Liancheng clenched his fist close to his trouser seam for a long time, then relaxed: "Dad, I know."

"Tell me, your father, what kind of thing could have caused such a big reaction in you?" Although Qi Shu would occasionally interfere in the children's education, most of the time, the couple fulfilled their responsibility of raising them.

"Me! Dad, didn't I go to an interview at Uncle Qiu's company before? But for some reason, I was suddenly notified today that I was rejected."

"But I clearly didn't do anything, why didn't you give me a chance to try it out and just eliminated me?"

"Just because of this? Since they didn't choose you, it means that the position you are in is not irreplaceable. If your ability is good enough, then they chose you and extended an olive branch to you, instead of you actively looking for it."

"Do you understand the difference here?" Qi Shutong frowned and tapped the newspaper twice.

"Me!" Qi Liancheng wanted to refute his father. His ability was not bad at all, but he could be easily denied by his father. Qi Liancheng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, but finally loosened his palms: "Yes, Dad, I was not fully prepared and embarrassed you."

The atmosphere at home was so oppressive that Qi Liancheng felt suffocated and he just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.

Qi Liancheng walked out of the house, stood outside in the breeze, and couldn't help but light a cigarette.

Qi Nana, who had just returned home, saw him and said, "Brother, why are you outside? You even learned to smoke. I'm going to tell Dad!"

As she said that, Qi Nana was about to take the key and go in.

Qi Liancheng stopped Qi Nana and said, "What do you want to buy? I'll buy it for you."

Qi Nana's mouth was covered by Qi Liancheng, and she stammered and said something unknown.

Only then did Qi Liancheng notice his own gaffe and quickly let Qi Nana go.

"Brother, you are already such a grown-up, why do you smoke secretly? If dad finds out, he will teach you a lesson again." Qi Nana said unhappily.

Qi Liancheng sighed, put out the cigarette in his hand, and put the remaining cigarette behind his ear. He did not answer Qi Nana, but asked: "Why did you come back so late?"

"Brother, I've been coming home late these days. Didn't you notice?" Qi Nana looked at Qi Liancheng with a strange expression: "Besides, I've informed my parents that I'm coming home late. Master's work will be submitted in the next two days."

"I'm helping Master with some finishing work." Qi Nana explained to Qi Liancheng.

"It's all thanks to Li Luo for giving me this opportunity. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to learn such good skills. I stayed at Li Luo's house for two days before, and I learned a lot from him!"

"Brother, I wrongly blamed Li Luo before. Li Luo is indeed like a buried treasure. If you don't dig deeper, you will never know what kind of rare treasures are hidden inside!"

Qi Nana became more and more excited as she spoke, and didn't notice that Qi Liancheng's face was getting darker and darker.

"Brother, I was wrong about Li Luo. I always felt that she was not worthy of you. I didn't want to let her into our family because I was afraid that she would take away my parents' love for me."

"Now I just feel that Li Luo is a free and easy person, who dares to love and hate, is neither arrogant nor impatient, and does things seriously and courageously." Qi Nana leaned on the railing, expressing her feelings after interacting with Li Luo.

"I didn't realize before that she is such a lovely girl. If I were a man, I would definitely want to marry her." Qi Nana exclaimed with heartfelt admiration.

"Nana, tell me, if I get Luoluo back now, is there any possibility of making amends?" Qi Liancheng lowered his head, making it impossible to see the expression on his face.

"Brother, are you kidding me? She's already married. All you have to do is say goodbye to the past in a decent way and sincerely wish her a better life."

"You were the one who was determined not to let her go in the first place. Now that she's doing well and isn't bothering you anymore, you feel unbalanced. You want to get her back. Do you think she'll still be waiting for you?"

Qi Liancheng's breathing stagnated, and then a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Yes, he was the one who swore that he didn't like Li Luo's approach.
