The next morning, Xie Zhuzhou, dressed in his second brother's suit, arrived at Ji Wangyun's company on time. He tried his best to imitate his second brother's usual mannerisms, attempting to make himself look more natural.
However, things weren't as simple as he had imagined. Upon arriving at the company, he encountered all sorts of people and situations: documents requiring his signature, meetings he needed to attend, and various unexpected events.
Ji Wangyun at work is very different from Ji Wangyun at home. Not only does he act serious, but he also makes his subordinates obedient, with none daring to raise their heads.
During the meeting, Xie Zhuzhou remained silent, resting his elbows on the table and crossing his hands over his head, feigning seriousness.
This was the first time he'd ever used such a pretentious pose, which sometimes made him want to laugh. But no one there understood his pain. He wasn't even going to work at his own company, and he'd gone to his second brother's company instead, wearing shoe inserts that were three or four centimeters high, trying so hard to hold back his laughter that his abs were practically showing!
No wonder my second brother imitated him so naturally last time; turns out he's just putting on an act at work.
Furthermore, these people didn't even realize he wasn't Ji Wangyun! Even if there were any other clues, shouldn't Ji Wangyun's assistant have noticed something was different?
First, there's the iris scanner issue. He used a password to open the door today, and nobody seemed to find it strange?
Given my second brother's personality, he certainly wouldn't choose the troublesome way to open the door instead of the easy way, right?
Xie Zhuzhou dealt with the situation while inwardly groaning. He finally realized that his second brother's job was not as easy as it usually appeared.
Ji Wangyun said he could help with some light stamping work, but he would still need to take a look at it first.
Meanwhile, Ji Wangyun was leisurely enjoying his rare holiday at home. He would occasionally send a message to his younger brother to inquire about the situation and make a few teasing remarks.
"Hey bro, how's it going? Work's going smoothly?" Ji Wangyun texted.
Xie Zhuzhou looked at the message on his phone and replied, "Utterly boring."
"Of course you're bored if you don't have to work. Turn on my computer; I have Minesweeper and Spider Poker on it."
Xie Zhuzhou:...
When Ji Wangyun saw his younger brother looking distressed on the other end of the line, he was overjoyed, thinking that his dark circles were a good thing!
Just as Xie Zhuzhou was busy and overwhelmed, Chu Yanzhang suddenly appeared at the company as a special consultant. When he entered the office and saw Xie Zhuzhou looking completely drained, he couldn't help but laugh.
" Zhouzhou, do you need any help?" Chu Yanzhang asked with a smile.
Xie Zhuzhou saw Chu Yanzhang, it was as if he had seen a savior. He immediately nodded and said, " Little Yan, you've come at the right time. Quickly help me look at these documents, I'm about to collapse... I'm so sleepy!"
Chu Yanzhang smiled, took the documents, and began to carefully help Xie Zhuzhou process them. With Chu Yanzhang's help, Xie Zhuzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After a busy day, Xie Zhuzhou finally finished his second brother's work. He dragged his tired body onto the bus, and had a completely new understanding of his second brother's work.
Working is so boring! Wouldn't it be so much better to stay home and watch videos?
Chu Yanzhang massaged his shoulders in the car, seemingly enjoying a peaceful moment. But in reality, today was also the day Chu Little Yan secretly fled the company.
Is there any soreness in your shoulder?
"Here."
"Yes, yes, yes."
As soon as Xie Zhuzhou got home, he was caught red-handed.
Ji Wangchen glanced at him. "You skipped work on your second day at Aurora Future."
Seeing his elder brother's sharp gaze, Xie Zhuzhou immediately confessed everything.
Ji Wangyun: "!"
Ji Wangyan sighed, "Why can't you look like me?"
Ji Wuqiu thought to himself that his youngest son resembled him the most. He figured that if he didn't want to attend a meeting in the future, his youngest son could just put on makeup and fool those old folks.
Ji Wangchen sneered, "Do you think going to work is child's play? You're even fooling around with your second brother, what are you thinking?"
Xie Zhuzhou was speechless. Although he was a cold person, he still had a little bit of morality, which was why he still owed his second brother a day.
"Big brother, I was wrong." Practice makes perfect; as long as I slide to my knees fast enough, the scolding can't catch up with me.
Ji Wangchen had only been pretending to scare his underling, but the guy knew he was more responsive to gentle persuasion than force, and admitted his mistake so quickly? This made it impossible for Ji Wangchen to continue lecturing his underling.
It was a rare opportunity to catch someone red-handed, but who knew Xie Zhuzhou was such a cunning little devil.
Chu Yanzhang's position in this family is awkward. Recently, Ji Wuqiu, under the pretext of hospitality, forced him to stay at the Ji Family.
Chu Yanzhang was outstanding in every way, and Chu Yanzhang Ji Wuqiu even considered adopting him as his godson.
With the support of his family, Chu Yanzhang isn't entirely without support, and he might even be able to achieve something even greater.
Everyone present had their own thoughts and ideas.
Ji Wangchen shifted his gaze to Chu Yanzhang: "I heard you even got a fake ID today to sneak in and aid the wicked?"
Chu Yanzhang saw the worried look in Xie Zhuzhou's eyes, and his heart began to beat faster again.
"It's not a fake certificate; I took the exam when I had some free time."
Everyone:...
"Can you help him once, or can you help him for a lifetime?"
Chu Yanzhang replied without hesitation, "As long as Zhouzhou needs me, I'll help him, even if it takes a lifetime!" He'd been so direct; surely Zhouzhou would understand his implication, right?
Xie Zhuzhou was deeply moved at that moment. He was truly his only good friend! All his previous kindness to him had not been in vain!
Ji Wangchen glanced at the two of them and roughly concluded the results of his observations over the past few days.
It was purely a friendship; the two were very close, and Chu Yanzhang admired Xie Zhuzhou as if he were his elder brother.
Since you're not in the mood, that's good.
Ji Wangchen of relief, after all, he didn't want to turn his home into a chaotic mess.
night
Xie Zhuzhou passed by Ji Wangyun's room and suddenly overheard him making a phone call with his special assistant.
"You found out? Then you didn't give yourself away, did you?"
The person on the other end of the phone said, "How could that be? Everyone in the company respects the young master. They even secretly replaced your usual coffee with milk tea!"
"Anything else?"
"Many people in our company are fans of the young master, but they all refrained from asking for his autograph!"
"No, my signature must not be leaked!"
"Boss, can the young master work one more day?"
Xie Zhuzhou, standing outside Ji Wangyun's gate, felt as if struck by lightning.
He put on a show all day, only to be exposed from the very beginning?
What's the difference between this and social death?!
Also, won't his public image collapse? He actually drank milk tea there!
Good heavens! What kind of fans are these?! Where did they even come from?! Aren't they bad enough already?!
All he needs are haters! Ugh!
