Su Jinyu nodded in agreent, “Yep, that’s fine!”
Chen Mo said, “Alright, I’ll just need so more details about the employnt. First, the work ti! Every day, from 10 AM to 8 PM. Try to be present on weekends. If you need so ti off, try and have them on Monday or Tuesday.”
Su Jinyu agreed.
“As for the pay, working during weekends and holidays will be considered overti working out to about eight thousand RMB a month, transferred within the first five days of the month. However, you only get eight days of leave a month.”
Su Jinyu was shocked, “Huh? So much?”
Normally companies would try and keep the pay of interns as low as possible. In the Imperial Capital, even a student from a notable university would only receive around five thousand RMB a month.
The pay might be higher for an industry that required plenty of overti, but it wouldn’t exceed seven thousand.
Only after passing the orientation and becoming a full-ti employee could one hope to get above eight thousand RMB, possibly into the tens of thousands. Su Jinyu thought she would receive five thousand a month in salary, so Chen Mo’s offer was beyond her expectations.
Chen Mo said, “If you’re unhappy, reducing it isn’t a problem.”
Su Jinyu left out a stifled laugh, “I’m perfectly happy with it.”
Chen Mo never liked the idea of bargaining for pay. It was always a showdown between HR and the applicant. I want fifteen thousand, you want ten, settling at twelve. It reminded him of the old ladies at the market haggling, completely unnecessary and was disrespectful to the talent.
Chen Mo felt that spending two to three more thousand RMB a month wasn’t a big deal when compared to the ten thousand RMB per spin. Moreover, he felt that Su Jinyu deserved that amount of money.
Chen Mo continued, “Now, regarding overti.”
Su Jinyu quickly interjected, “Overti isn’t a problem, I’m still at the stage of learning and gathering experience. If there’s a need to work through the night...”
Chen Mo said, “Oh? You’re mistaken. I was about to say that there’s no need for overti. 10 AM to 8 PM every day, there will be no overti.”
“Huh?” Su Jinyu was shocked as the situation was completely outside her expectations.
In his previous world, working overti was completely normalized in the video ga industry, and there wasn’t extra pay either. In the parallel world, although it wasn’t required, working overti was still quite common.
The majority of the video ga designers in the parallel world were workaholics. They were always more well-rounded, as they had to do all parts of a ga. Therefore the main designer was always the busiest, completely destroying their sleep schedule in the process, which is why most of them chose to stay in their offices.
Su Jinyu thought that Chen Mo was also like that and was prepared to work overti often, but it turned out Chen Mo didn’t work overti?
Chen Mo said, “Companies that need their employees to work overti frequently can only be one of two typesL understaffed, or have poor working efficiency of employees. This company is neither of those.”
Su Jinyu nodded, “Mm!” Although a bit confused, she felt compelled to agree.
Chen Mo said, “You probably already know most of the things you need to know about working at the front desk. There normally won’t be too many custors, so you can do whatever you want during downti, be it playing gas or watching videos online. I will provide you with so assistant-level work from ti to ti, so just make sure you finish them on ti.”
Su Jinyu said, “Alright, no problem!”
Chen Mo said, “Alright, you can go back for today and prepare yourself for your first day tomorrow.”
Su Jinyu nodded, “Alright, nice eting you!”

After shaking hands because it felt necessary, Su Jinyu left with a huge smile on her face.
Su Jinyu was very happy with the job. Being able to learn with an amazing video ga designer, way above average pay, not too much work, and no overti either!
The only negative was that there was seemingly so difference in their ideology. But it wasn’t a problem. Even if the designer of Plants vs Zombies wanted to ruin their reputation for money, how bad could it really get?

10 AM the next day...
Chen Mo opened the doors ten minutes early, but Su Jinyu was already standing there waiting.
“Good morning!” Su Jinyu greeted him.
Chen Mo said, “You don’t need to co so early in the future. It’s fine by if you’re five to ten minutes late.”
Su Jinyu said, “I can’t do that, I’ve always been punctual.”
As the doors had just opened, there weren’t any custors inside.
The laptop and drawing tablet that Chen Mo had ordered had also arrived, both of which were quite high-end, completely able to satisfy any design requirents as of now.
“Go ahead and install any software you need on the laptop. I’ll send you a design docunt later during the afternoon, please look through and refine it.”
Su Jinyu nodded, “Mm, alright.”

After telling her so other things she needed to do, Chen Mo went back to the second floor. As Su Jinyu was already at the bar counter, there wasn’t a need for him to be there.
Su Jinyu downloaded so commonly used software onto her laptop. As the files weren’t big and the internet speed was good, downloading them didn’t take much ti.
Su Jinyu was quite pumped on her first day of work.
She got up and walked around the first floor.
As the maintenance and cleaning were done by professionals, everything was very neat. The screens, keyboards, and mice were all clean, and the seats were arranged neatly.
eting room, bar table, snacks rack, sofa... Su Jinyu walked around the entire first floor, getting the impression that Chen Mo’s experience store wasn’t the sa as the others she had seen before. It gave away a relaxing vibe.
Perhaps it was the orientation of things.
Su Jinyu sat down at the bar table.
A dark-skinned, skinny man walked into the store around five past ten.
“Hello, welco!” Su Jinyu greeted him politely.
Jia Peng was shocked with his eyes and mouth wide open. He stepped backwards outside and took a look at the sign.
-Thunderbolt Gaming experience store, it’s right!-
Jia Peng looked at the interior of the store. Yep, nothing has changed, other than the manager was now a cute girl.
-D-did he beco a woman?!-
“Uhh...are you...” Jia Peng questioned hesitantly.
Su Jinyu said, “I’m Su Jinyu, the new receptionist.”
“Oh!” Jia Peng finally understood. “Hello! Where’s the owner?”
Su Jinyu replied, “He’s on the second floor, is there sothing you need from him?”
Jia Peng waved dismissively, “No, it’s fine. Uhh, I’m just here to play gas for a while, it’s fine.”
Jia Peng swiped his ID and sat down at a computer, taking a peek at Su Jinyu.
He was having so internal thoughts. Tsk, I haven’t been here for two days and there’s a new receptionist now. It’s a cute girl, too. That’s big news.
Jia Peng took out his phone and sent a ssage to his group.
>Sothing big has happened! The manager hired a cute girl to work the front desk!
Soon, there were countless replies.
>Huh? Really? She wasn’t there when I went yesterday!
>I think the manager was hiring the past few days and even had a few interviews.
>He found a new hire? Is it really a cute girl? How cute is she?
>I don’t buy it! Pics or it never happened!
>Yeah, send a picture!
>Is she as cute as senior Xiuya?
Jia Peng was speechless, replying: Co have a look yourselves!
Wen Lingwei: Don’t let the cute girl leave, I’ll be right there!
The group had exploded. Instead of developing gas, why did the manager think of evil tactics like this? Did he intentionally hire a cute girl to draw us in because we haven’t been there recently?
That’s just too much!
This type of behavior? Pathetic!
But... it was a good choice!
