Chapter 238: Deeper story

In the middle of bustling City Zhou, Dongfang Qi Ze who is sitting in his office at the highest floor of the Dongfang Group building can't even hear any of the loudness of the traffic, he is focused on finishing his work as soon as possible so that he can leave.

"Young master." A knocking sound came from the door and Assistant Long and Assistant Lu came in together, one person with a document in hand and another one come empty handed.

"What?" Dongfang Qi Ze didn't lift up his head and ask.

"I brought you next week's schedule." Assistant Long said and hand over the document. Dongfang Qi Ze finally look up and look at his watch first, it's already 4.45 pm, he grinned and take a glance at files again before closing it.

"Brief me about it later." Dongfang Qi Ze now had his eyes on the computer screen.

"Yes." Assistant Long nod and took it back.

"Young master, I wanted to report about that man. We have bring him to the waiting room, we can leave anytime soon." Assistant Lu said.

He is currently talking about Qi Sheng who will substitute Dongfang Qi Ze today and tomorrow until Dongfang Qi Ze return. Dongfang Qi Ze movement is always a top secret, that's why they bring in Qi Sheng to the company to take make his appearance in front of the employee and attend the family dinner. As for the real Dongfang Qi Ze, he will leave to Qinfang village soon.

"Then tell Assistant He that we will leave exactly at 5.00 pm. You all can leave here after." Dongfang Qi Ze said.

"Yes young master." Assistant Lu bow and leave the office.

"Young master, can't I really follow you?" Assistant Long who stay behind said.

"No, you head back to take care of the house." Dongfang Qi Ze said.

Long Yi sigh, what's there to take care of if the house is empty. Qi Sheng will secretly be sent back to City Shan after he returned to the young master's residence. Anything regarding Qi Sheng, it will be Assistant Lu's job, as for him, he will be abandoned by the young master when he go to the small town.

At exactly 5.00 pm, Assistant He came in with a coat in his arm.

"Young master, we can leave now." Assistant He said, he feel a bit weird seeing Long Yi all low spirit standing next to the young master. He ignore the other one and went to take the young master's blazer and help him to wear it.

"What's wrong senior?" Assistant He ask when the young master enter the bedroom behind the bookshelf.

"Why does the young master don't want to bring me together?" Assistant Long sigh.

"That's because he don't want the young girl to feel suspicious. What if you can't hold it in and follow him?" Assistant He said.

"I won't do it." Assistant Long said.

"Don't worry. I am the best driver and fighter amongst everyone, I will protect the young master." Assistant He pat Long Yi's shoulder.

"En. Make sure to stay alert all the time. The young master may drive on her own somewhere so follow him secretly. The young girl is smart, you don't want to get caught." Assistant Long said again.

"I know, I know." Assistant He laugh. How many times had they been trained to be incognito when the young master is supposed to be alone outside. What more, with Qi Sheng here, there is no way anyone can guess that the young master will be staying at a small village.

Even in the village they have someone that they trust, if there is anything they will be alerted. Just take the time when the young master was fatally injured for example, they were helpless to find a place to hide the young master, but their man in Qinfang village found a solution. That person idea was crazy at that time, how did that person suddenly thought of sending the heavily injured young master to a mountain house? But, they were actively pursued, with the injured young master, they can't fight all out. What more, if they hide the young master somewhere, the enemies won't be able to guess it, even if their group were caught, the young master won't be found.

Who knows that the young master is not only saved by the mountain house's owner, they also treated him. His internal injury and fractured bones miraculously healed in just one day. Don't know what they gave him but when the young master's returned and make a full body checkup, even his old illness is completely cured. It was truly a miracle. They can't be more happy to see their young master in his full health.

Of course they question their person in Qinfang village about what was done to the young master, but that person is also clueless. The person vouch that the house owners are kind people, they will surely save the injured the young master, that's why they took the risk of storming through the heavy rain that night to send the young master to their door. But, even that person don't know their secret to totally healed the young master.

When the young master returned, he also said the same thing. The young girl is the one who feed him the medicine, two type of medicine when he was half conscious, his internal injury and fractured bones recovered not long after that. Then, everyday the young girl also secretly feed him medicine and his external injury recovery also speed up. When they tested his blood, there were no residual chemicals found, the lab investigation verdicts is that he is very healthy. They even did several recheck because he originally have an illness and come for follow up every months, but that illness just disappeared into thin airs.

Since everything had been done and they can't come to a conclusion. They only assume that it must be secret remedy even though it doesn't convince them at all. Investigations were done on the young girl, then her siblings is also investigated one by one. Their former relatives in City Bei, people in Qinfang village too, but there is nothing. Other than the fact that the young girl seems to be extremely smart and talented, they can't find anything else.

There must be some kind of secret especially the young girl, but it's not like they can come over and interrogate the young girl and ask her to spill the secret. If they do so, see how the young master deals with them. These days, the young master is even more protective towards the young girl. Their people can only follow her from afar for the purpose of protecting her, there is no need to investigate her further he said.

When Dongfang Qi Ze finished making sure that everything is in order, they leave the company using the evacuation lift. This lift will open directly to the underground parking. They can exit the company from the back, this is a place that people rarely use because the exit in front of the building is connected directly to the main road, unlike this one that they are using.

When they passed by the barricade, the guard directly open it for them, for whatever reason 3 out of 5 cars that usually follow the young master anywhere is coming out of this back exit at this hour is not his problem. The young master is followed around by these cars everywhere he goes, sometimes he will drive his own car to the office and either of these 5 cars will follow behind and sometimes the assistant drive for him and these cars still follow behind. Today, 3 of these cars are driving out while the car that the young master used this morning is still inside, are they required to assist someone else? Well, whatever.

The three cars with Dongfang Qi Ze in one of it drive off from City Zhou when the sun is up, when they passed by City Shan, it is already dark.

"Young master, do you need anything? The takeout here is quite good." Assistant He who is in charge of driving the car ask. Dongfang Qi Ze told them that they can stop for a while at City Shan to have their meal and have a quick break, of course they are doing it in turn, the young master cannot be leave alone.

"No need. I am not hungry." Dongfang Qi Ze said, he is currently reviewing some documents in his tablet.

"Yes. Then call me if you need anything." Assistant He said before exchanging place with one of their people who have returned, it is his turn to come out now.

"En." Dongfang Qi Ze answer briefly and go back to his work.

On the way to Qinfang village from City Shan, Dongfang Qi Ze received a text message from Assistant Lu saying that they are back from the family dinner. Like always, he instructed Qi Sheng to act exactly like how Dongfang Qi Ze is during family dinner, nod briefly to the elders with expressionless face, ignored everyone and and eat quietly. When the dinner formally ends at 9.00 pm, leave the ancestral house.

There is only one person that he need to answer to who is the head of the family Dongfang Li Ming, as for the other, there is no need to bother. When he took over the Dongfang Group, his rank in the family immediately goes to the top, he can even be considered as equal to Dongfang Li Ming because the head of the family no longer is as strong as him now.

Have to say, Dongfang Qi Ze is totally an outcast in the family, other than his grandfather which is Dongfang Li Ming, the other already gave up talking to him. His uncles and aunts initially try talking with him, but over the years, he rarely answer, even if he did, it will be just yes and no answer. As for his cousins, they all hate or scared of him, so he only come to the family dinner as a form of respect to his grandfather.

'He did well.' That was Assistant Lu last message.

'Payment is as usual.'

'No, pay 2 times the amount.' Dongfang Qi Ze deleted the previous one before sending this message.

'Yes young master.' Assistant Lu replied.

Talking about Qi Sheng, Dongfang Qi Ze don't really have much interest in him until he met Bai Yi Yang. He met Qi Sheng during his late mother's funeral, he was informed that he was amongst the children who was treasured by his mother, the most treasured at that. When he met him, he guess that the reason must be because Qi Sheng looks like his father a lot, truthfully Dongfang Qi Ze also resembles his father. So, those who were at the funeral when the child comes had their eyes opened, but they are actually totally different, the face may be similar but they are really different.

Over the years, Dongfang Qi Ze continue his parents legacy to support unfortunate children, when Qi Sheng grew up, he like the other children had the intention to pay his kindness. Taking in Qi Sheng as his substitute wasn't originally his idea, it was Long Yi. Dongfang Qi Ze wasn't convinced at first but when they tested it out, it worked. Maybe because the people only saw him from afar and nobody ever get close to him, they are easily convinced when Qi Sheng dressed exactly like him.

So, just like that, his assistant groom Qi Sheng as a complete mould of him, he is trained to learn how to act like Dongfang Qi Ze and sign a lifelong agreement not to disclose the secret to any soul.

Qi Sheng is someone that is weighted by his parents debt, even when he stayed at the orphanage, the loan sharks still come over to find him. It became worse when he leave the orphanage, he enter the university and they also find him there, so he become more diligent in perfecting his substitute role. When Dongfang Qi Ze's assistant called him, he will directly come over. The pay is high and within all these years, his education is payed for, and he even get additional money when he is payed after a job is done. That's how Qi Sheng become a frequent substitute for Dongfang Qi Ze. Since he agreed to this deal, it's like selling himself since there are actually many restrictions, but that's the price that he must pay to be free from the debt shackles.
