Secretary Chen has a Headache Again Today!!! - Chapter 15

Chapter 15 – Qi Yang

“Knock, knock.”

There was a knock on the door.

Lian Xufeng stood up first, but then he felt something was wrong. He and Chen Xun had been in the same room since they were young, and it had been their habit since they were young. But what if someone saw them and went on to gossip about Chen Xun?

He first walked to the door and looked out through the peephole. There was a waiter standing at the door. He had a student-like face and seemed to be a part-time worker at the hotel during the summer vacation.

Lian Xufeng thought about it and decided to go back and pat Chen Xun on the shoulder.

Chen Xun happened to be awake, so he pretended to be sleepy and opened his eyes, “Well, what’s wrong?”

“Someone’s knocking on the door.” Lian Xufeng said softly, “It’s a waiter. Please open the door. It wouldn’t be appropriate if I was seen here.”

Chen Xun curled his lips and said with a smile: “You still moved in even though you knew it was bad.”

Although he said that, Chen Xun still lifted the quilt, got up and opened the door.

Lian Xufeng took the opportunity to hide in the bathroom, wondering why he was behaving as if he was having an affair, unable to even stand openly in Chen Xun’s room.

‘It’s so annoying.’

Chen Xun opened the door, but before he could ask, the waiter came up to him and tried to make friends with him with a smile, “Cousin, what a coincidence, we meet here.”

Chen Xun’s face was full of black lines, and his gentle face suddenly became serious, “You must have found the wrong person.”

He was brought back to the Lian family from an orphanage by his adoptive father. How could a cousin appear out of nowhere?

The waiter was confused, scratched the back of his head and asked, “Aren’t you Secretary Chen?”

“I’m Secretary Chen, but I’m an orphan and I have no relatives.” Chen Xun crossed his arms and looked at the other person unceremoniously, “You must have found the wrong person.”

“Orphan… Secretary Chen…”

The waiter murmured in confusion. After a few seconds, he understood what was happening and clapped his hands together. “Oh, I’m so sorry! I was looking for Chen Yan and accidentally found you here.”

“I found the wrong person.”

Chen Xun saw that he had a shifty look and didn’t look like a relative of a person as docile as Chen Yan. So he didn’t tell him Chen Yan’s floor and just closed the door.

But he didn’t know that after the door closed, the waiter jumped up and clenched his fists, sighing softly, “Oh! Why did I come through so early…? Why is Bai Yueguang not dead yet…?!”

[[T/N: Bai Yueguang translates to ‘white moonlight’. It means ‘first love’ aka the kind of love that’s impossible to forget.]]

Qi Hang somehow crossed over into this world ten days ago.

He was originally a great writer at Sanhe, when one day he picked up a novel from a trash can. Because he was bored, he lay under a bridge and read the melodramatic and domineering novel he had found.

The novel told the story of a domineering president falling in love with his secretary.

The writing style and plot was so awkward and boring that Qi Hang forced himself to read to the end while resisting the urge to sleep. He then threw the book aside, thinking that it was a rubbish story and no wonder it was thrown into the trash.

But the next morning, when he woke up, he was in the hospital with his unfamiliar “parents” crying loudly beside him? !

Qi Hang learned from his “parents” that he and his friends went swimming in the reservoir during the summer vacation and both of them drowned. Fortunately, they were rescued by some kind people. However, his friend had woken up long ago, but Qi Hang had been in a coma for half a month and had not yet woken up.

Perhaps the soul of this “Qi Hang” had already passed away, so it was now his turn to impersonate the other party.

After getting rid of his identity as a Sanhe God, Qi Hang quickly adapted to his identity as a college student. Although he didn’t get along very well with his “parents”, because he had “died” once before, his parents loved him very much and were almost obedient to him in everything.

Qi Hang was extremely happy until the day before yesterday when he heard from his parents that his cousin, Chen Yan, had recently successfully joined Weiming Technology in this city. He suddenly remembered the novel he had read before traveling through time.

‘Wasn’t Chen Yan the protagonist in that novel?’

‘Wasn’t Weiming Technology the company of Lian Xufeng, the protagonist?’

Qi Hang suddenly realized that he not only traveled through time, but also traveled inside a book!

No wonder his parents, relatives and classmates kept saying Alpha, Beta and Omega everyday. He thought they were practicing English, but he didn’t expect that they were those English words in the book that he couldn’t understand!

Although he forgot everything he saw, the story was so melodramatic that Qi Hang still remembered some parts of it.

The story was very simple. The protagonist Lian Xufeng had a childhood sweetheart, but she died before the book begins. His cousin Chen Yan transformed from a small secretary to the president’s secretary, got a promotion and a raise, and helped the president, Lian Xufeng, forget the early deceased Bai Yueguang, and finally they got married.

‘If that was the case, then so be it.’

Unfortunately, the author had a problem with his brain. He wrote more than a dozen chapters about the protagonist being in love with Bai Yueguang, but in the next chapter, the protagonist gave him a pack of cookies and fell in love with him! The protagonist was a CEO who is decisive and pays attention to his work, but the protagonist thinks it’s cute when he accidentally spills coffee on a document?!

There were a series of strange plots, and the two could still love each other despite the strangeness. It was simply that the author who was the mother of the novel forced them together and the plot killed them.

However, Qi Hang was a person who knew how to judge the situation. Although the plot is bloody, he was the cousin of the protagonist, so he could definitely take advantage of his proximity to the protagonist.

When he was wandering around in the past, Qi Hang always felt that he was gifted and could accomplish something great.

Now that he had traveled through the book, he felt that he was the son of destiny. Weiming Technology is a world-class company in the book. As long as he hooked up with Chen Yan, after graduation, Chen Yan and Lian Xufeng would get married. Then, couldn’t he ask Chen Yan to give him a branch company to manage? Then, wouldn’t he become the general manager directly after graduation? !

Thinking about it, he began to search for news about Weiming Technology, and found the press release about the team building activity on Weiming’s official website…

“What did that person say just now?” Lian Xufeng walked out of the bathroom and asked with raised eyebrows.

Chen Xun shook his head, “Nothing, he found the wrong person.”

He walked to the bed and lay down again. This time, he finally lowered his head and carefully covered himself with the quilt.

“I’ll take a nap first, you go take a shower.”

Lian Xufeng nodded in agreement and turned to go to the bathroom.

After being interrupted by Qi Hang, Chen Xun’s worries were dispelled. He laid on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.

When Lian Xufeng walked out of the bathroom, he saw Chen Xun lying on the bed with his eyes closed and a slightly uneasy sleeping face.

‘I don’t know what he dreamed about that made him look so scared.’

When Lian Xufeng saw Chen Xun’s sleeping face, his heart tightened. He walked towards Chen Xun and stared at Chen Xun’s long and thick eyelashes.

The tall Alpha carefully reached out his hand and stroked the tender skin of Chen Xun’s cheek with his fingertips.

“Why is he still scared even when he is asleep?” Lian Xufeng murmured to himself.

‘Is it because you are living with me?’

Lian Xufeng didn’t quite understand. If possible, he would’ve rather differentiated himself into a Beta or even an Omega, so that he could be free and inseparable from Chen Xun.

But he differentiated into an Alpha.

Chen Xun went from being extremely close to deliberately becoming distant now.

Lian Xufeng couldn’t figure it out, and he couldn’t even remember what had happened on the night of the differentiation.

The only clear memory was the smell of mint chocolate on Chen Xun.

It tasted exactly the same as it did that night when he was drunk.

“Was it you?” Lian Xufeng asked softly, “Was it you that night?”

Chen Xun, who was in a deep sleep, was unable to respond to his questions.

Even Xufeng himself could not be sure whether that hazy and spring-like dream was real or fake.

Lian Xufeng stood up and walked to the closet, opened the door, and grabbed a few individually wrapped mint chocolates from the inside pocket of his suit jacket.

Because it wasn’t in the refrigerator, the chocolate had melted a little.

Lian Xufeng put most of the chocolate in the refrigerator and kept one piece for himself.

He sat beside Chen Xun’s bed, crossed his legs, tore open the chocolate wrapper, and stuffed the half-melted chocolate into his mouth.

The cool and sweet taste instantly filled his mouth.

Lian Xufeng liked to eat candy, no matter what kind of candy it was, he liked it.

It wasn’t until he was eighteen, on that chaotic night of differentiation, that he smelled his favorite candy in his life.

It was just a pity that he had eaten so many mint chocolates over the years, but he had never found one that tasted the same as that night.

The days of the team building activity passed one by one and finally came to an end.

Except for the appearance of a “cousin” who made Chen Yan frown on the way back, everything was still the same as before.

“The company will reimburse the taxi fare from the airport to the way back home. Everyone, have a good rest and be on time for work tomorrow.”

Lian Xufeng waved his hand, and everyone went back to their homes. Chen Xun stood beside Lian Xufeng and said goodbye to his colleagues with a smile.

The waiter who had found the wrong person that day dragged Chen Yan over with a smile and stretched out his hand to Lian Xufeng and said, “Mr. Lian, thank you for taking care of my cousin, Chen Yan.”

Lian Xufeng frowned.

It’s not like he had time to meet any cat or dog. Just a weird cousin who was neither Wei Ming’s employee nor Party A or Party B of the cooperation. Why would such a person want to be friends with him?

“Cousin!” Chen Yan exclaimed, and quickly pulled Qi Hang’s arm with force, but the Omega’s strength was not as good as Beta’s, and he couldn’t pull his cousin who was stupid enough.

Seeing that Lian Xufeng looked unhappy, Chen Xun walked up to Lian Xufeng and held Qi Hang’s ungrateful hand. “Hello, Chen Yan has worked hard these past few days. You should go back and have a rest first.”

Qi Hang raised his head and glanced at Chen Xun suddenly.

For some reason, the moment their eyes met, Chen Xun saw nothing but a hint of sympathy in the other person’s eyes.

‘Why is he feeling sorry for me?’

Chen Xun didn’t understand, but the look really made him uncomfortable.

“What’s wrong?” Lian Xufeng put his arms around Chen Xun’s shoulders and let the Omega lean on his arms.

Chen Xun breathed a sigh of relief, covered his pounding chest, and forced a smile, “I’m just tired.”

“Go back to my place first and rest for a while?” Lian Xufeng took the suitcase from Chen Xun. “The driver is waiting.”

But Chen Xun had more important things to do at this moment.

He pursed his lips and politely declined Lian Xufeng’s proposal, “I’ll take a taxi back to the old house. My father asked me to go back.”

In order to prevent Lian Xufeng from going with him, Chen Xun slowly added, “It seems like he’s going to tell me about the blind date.”

“Why are you going on a blind date again?!” Lian Xufeng was shocked and quickly stepped back, “You must reject Uncle Zhong for me!”

“Okay, I’ll go and persuade Dad.” Chen Xun took his suitcase away. “By the way, I’ll take a taxi back. Otherwise, Dad will be angry if he knows that the driver went to pick you up but ended up picking me.”

Lian Xufeng knew Zhong Bo’s distinct personality, so he had to agree dejectedly: “Okay.”

Cars were going in and out of the airport, and Chen Xun quickly got a taxi.

He got into the car, said goodbye to Lian Xufeng who was reluctant to let him leave, turned around and raised his phone and said seriously: “Mister, change the address and go to this hospital.”
