Chapter 23: Chapter 23: 23 Things with Junior
As the flash of light streaked by, Duan Mingyuan's action of touching Jiuyue's mouth corner was captured at this mont.
Eventually, Duan Mingyuan agreed to Jiuyue's request.
However, this had nothing to do with the little fox's past or her pitiable appearance, but rather his inability to stand seeing soone eat so ssily that food was sared all around their mouth.
Just as this was happening, another unemployed vagrant among the three arrived.
"Hehe, can I kiss him?"
The person taking photos made the request.
"No, it's not like that..."
"Tang Qianqian, it's you."
Jiuyue and Duan Mingyuan spoke at the sa ti.
He felt that sotis the world was like people's critiques of novels, unexpected yet also making perfect sense.
She had resigned just a day ago, was an unemployed bum, and liked cats.
Jiuyue said the monster assigned to her was her batchmate, a Li Hua cat spirit.
Tang Qianqian, whose na too had made remarkable contributions to modern Life Energy science, might not have kept him back to and the reports Tang Qianqian had been working on if she had not processed her resignation that day, which resulted in him working overti till nearly 11 p.m.
He wouldn't have missed his favorite bread, wouldn't have encountered a downpour on the way, and of course, wouldn't have t the evil spirit embodied by Mr. Lu San's consciousness on his way ho.
Modern life science might have possibly stopped progressing right there.
"Sen—ior—!"
This call to 'senior' was packed with such heart-wrenching emotion it was as if she wanted to vent all the grievances in her heart. If a clueless passerby heard it, they might think this young girl dressed in a cartoon cat hoodie had encountered so great misfortune in her life, but Duan Mingyuan, being in the know, was aware that she just took a day off at ho after resigning.
Jiuyue was intimidated by Tang Qianqian's aura, and at this mont, her hands, which had been tangled by crispy chicken drumsticks, regained their freedom. Holding the part near the claw, she used the picked-clean bone as a weapon, pointing it toward Tang Qianqian.
No wonder so people refer to this type of drumstick as a 'pistol leg.'
"I'd advise you not to lay a finger on ; whatever you have to say, say it from over there."
The little fox's eyes were fierce, and she bared her teeth as if she was guarding her food.
Although Tang Qianqian was still several steps away from Mr. Mingyuan, that didn't an this pitiful-acting woman wouldn't quickly close in on them, and then, just like in the TV dramas, throw herself into Mr. Mingyuan's arms with snot and tears.
Hmph, surely she was just putting on an act.
As an expert in playing dumb, Jiuyue's ability to judge was exceptionally outstanding.
"Eh? Why is your accompanying spirit in human form?"
Tang Qianqian's long-prepared pitiful act was interrupted; she curiously shifted a step to the left, followed by an unusually large Li Hua cat, even bigger than Jiuyue in the photo by another size.
She looked down for a while and then asked the Li Hua cat the soul-searching question, "Can you transform?"
"No, I'm different from her; she was shape-shifting from birth..."
The Li Hua cat looked up at Jiuyue, "Jiuyue, you've beco so emotional just after a few days."
The course for accompanying spirits even included lessons on emotional managent.
Jiuyue, still upset, warned the other, "Li Hua, keep your bound partner in check."
"So you're the Miss September that Li Hua ntioned."
Tang Qianqian suddenly realized, "But you can rest assured, I, Tang Qianqian, am a dedicated warrior of pure love."
To show her sincerity, she directly sat at the next table and gestured to the Li Hua cat, who agilely leapt onto her knees.
She admitted that she indeed harbored unusual feelings for Duan Mingyuan, but those were of admiration for an elder father figure.
Jiuyue still didn't let her guard down, "What is your relationship with Mr. Mingyuan?"
"What relationship? When I interned at the departnt, it was the senior who took
under his wing. If I have to describe it... well, I was raised by the senior with all the ss that cos with it."
He helped her transition from a newcor fresh out of school to soone who understood all the rules and perils of the workplace.
Wherever her ntor was, she felt safe, even now when her current job had her face a vicious evil spirit.
Compared to Tang Qianqian, who was ecstatic after seeing Duan Mingyuan, his heart was also stirred.
If he were to sum up his feelings for this junior in a single sentence...
Tang Qianqian, you DAMN!
Unfortunately, it was not appropriate to curse in the workplace, and Duan Mingyuan didn't get the chance to express these bottled-up words until the day Tang Qianqian resigned.
He thought it wasn't an exaggeration to describe this girl as a workplace nightmare.
Tang Qianqian possessed a combination of poor qualities: a lack of focus on her work, a fondness for slacking off, slow learning, and the tendency to chat with people during work hours. In a ga, she would be an entity saddled with four negative attributes.
But Tang Qianqian's horrors didn't stop there.
Duan Mingyuan would never forget that afternoon when he forwarded the chat history from the group to Tang Qianqian, asking her to print out the spreadsheet and take it to the departnt head's office, only for this girl to also print out the Shiba Inu emoji that was in the chat history.
As a result, the departnt head called him and Tang Qianqian into his office, pointing at the last page with a smirking cartoon Shiba Inu and demanding to know what the heck it was.
Tang Qianqian's performance was consistently stable.
The number displayed on the energy asurer was "1," considered lower than Da Jiang.
It seed like everything had gone back to the beginning, when the departnt head brought an intern with clear eyes to him and said, "This is little Tang, you take charge of her."
Duan Mingyuan held his forehead, seeing darkness before his eyes.
But Tang Qianqian took pride instead of sha, elaborating with exaggeration the tales of her ti in the workplace with her ntor to Jiuyue, naturally including her brilliant feat of printing out the cartoon Shiba Inu emoji in the report for the departnt head's office.
Jiuyue listened very carefully, but her feelings were mixed.
On one hand, Tang Qianqian's vivid storytelling gradually lowered her defenses, but on the other hand, she realized that Tang Qianqian was definitely a dangerous person, a classic example of a workplace disaster.
Tang Qianqian, you DAMN!
That was Jiuyue's impression after listening.
Fatherly love is as high as a mountain!
She finally understood why Tang Qianqian said she was raised by Mr. Mingyuan with all the ss that cos with it.
Without this profound fatherly love, this person would have been beaten to death several tis over.
Then, Tang Qianqian proudly discussed the reason she quit, "I only decided to leave my job after hearing from Li Hua that this job doesn't require office attendance, offers ample free ti, and it's even possible to get a paid leave for a whole month if it's not too busy. My greatest life goal is to find a place where I can slack off and wait for death, with the hobby of lying at ho."
This laid-back workplace atmosphere was undoubtedly the job of her dreams.
"I really didn't expect you to switch careers and do this too, senior."
It was only then that Tang Qianqian rembered her initial worry, "Do you think we might have been scamd? Li Hua said we each had a monthly claim limit of 5000 Bei, but the claims it submitted to the liaison officer the other day have all vanished without a trace..."
This inevitably made her think of those classic scenarios.
The company goes bankrupt, the boss runs off with his mistress, or perhaps this was all a ruse by the company to trick new employees with false promises from the start.
"It's not as bad as you think, the liaison officer hasn't run off," Duan Mingyuan steadied himself and began to explain on behalf of Comrade Da Jiang, "The only reason he didn't have ti to reply to you guys is because he got taken out."
