Chen Fei opened his eyes, feeling sore and weak all over.

He reached for his phone on the bedside table, and the screen lit up—22:27 PM.

I can't believe I slept until this late.

After arriving at the apartment building yesterday afternoon, fueled by the longing and energy accumulated over three days of separation, and with the "surprise" meticulously prepared by Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi, the three of them continued their battle from afternoon until late at night, except for eating and showering.

They used the most primitive method, asking for it again and again.

Even after he started working out, he still couldn't resist.

There was no one around me.

Chen Fei touched the bed sheet; it was cool to the touch, so they must have been up for a while.

He propped himself up, rubbed his temples, and opened the system interface. He was still three workouts away from completing the fitness task.

So, if I work out for three consecutive days starting today, I can complete the task and obtain the coveted skill "A New Day".

Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi are already overwhelming for me, not to mention the even more domineering Jiang Che. If I didn't have this skill, I would be doomed sooner or later.

Faint chatter could be heard coming from the living room.

Chen Fei put on his clothes and went outside.

Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi were already dressed and sitting at the dining table drinking milk, with sandwiches and sausage buns bought from the bakery in front of them.

Upon seeing him come out, the two of them stopped chatting without prior arrangement.

Shen Shaoting's eyes darted around as she bit the straw, still sucking in air even after finishing her milk.

Lin Jingyi lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously twirling the ends of her hair, as if recalling the enchanting moments of the previous night.

Yesterday's passion and boldness had exhausted all their courage, leaving only post-coital shyness and meekness.

"You're awake?" Shen Shaoting spoke first, her voice a little hoarse. "I left you breakfast... uh, lunch. Just heat it up in the microwave."

"Hmm." Chen Fei walked over and sat down between the two of them, naturally reaching out to ruffle their hair with each hand. "What are your plans for the afternoon?"

"I have work," Lin Jingyi said softly, pushing a glass of warm water in front of him. "I have an outdoor commercial project that I took on before, and I'm going to shoot it this afternoon."

"I also have a photoshoot," Shen Shaoting added, "a summer clothing launch for a small Taobao shop."

"Okay, I'll take you there later." Chen Fei nodded and got up to heat up the breakfast.

After a simple lunch, Chen Fei drove Lin Jingyi to the park where the filming was taking place, and then drove Shen Shaoting to the photography studio.

Around 2 PM, Chen Fei returned to his company, Feiyi Media.

He paused for a moment as soon as he reached the door.

At the once empty company entrance, a simple desk had appeared out of nowhere.

The table was polished to a shine, with a small potted green plant on it, and a visitor registration book and a pen next to it.

And sitting behind the table was none other than Li Yunyao.

She was wearing a simple white shirt today, her hair was tied in a neat low ponytail, and she had a polite smile on her face as she was sorting through several receipts.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up, saw Chen Fei, and immediately stood up.

"Boss! You're back!" Her voice was clear and bright, filled with obvious joy.

"Yun Yao? What's this...?" Chen Fei pointed to the table and her seat.

"Oh, I noticed this area near the company entrance was empty, and it would be awkward if someone came looking for us and there was no one to greet them, so I moved a spare table over to temporarily serve as a reception desk." Li Yunyao smiled a little sheepishly. "I thought it would make the company look more professional. What do you think?"

Chen Fei glanced at it.

Although the entrance became narrower after the table was placed there, it did not obstruct passage, and the overall space was neater and more refined than before he left.

Moreover, in the past few days, he has been receiving two 500 yuan rewards every day through the "Clean and Tidy Rent Collection" skill.

Clearly, one item came from Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi cleaning the house, and the other from the office, showing that Li Yunyao really put in the effort in terms of hygiene.

Although there was nothing else to do besides recruiting...

"That's great, you've worked hard." Chen Fei nodded in affirmation.

Receiving approval, Li Yunyao smiled with relief. Then, as if remembering something, she quickly said, "By the way, boss, there's something else I need to report to you. We've already hired two cleaners."

As she spoke, Li Yunyao called out inside, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Wang, please come out for a moment."

Soon, an elderly couple came out from inside.

He looked to be over sixty years old, but he was in good spirits, wearing a faded blue cleaning uniform, and holding a rag and a bucket in his hand.

The two men appeared somewhat reserved upon seeing Chen Fei, constantly rubbing their hands together.

"Boss, this is Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang, a couple who came out to work to support their child's university education. They used to work as cleaners elsewhere, so they are very experienced and honest people," Li Yunyao introduced. Then she turned to the elderly couple, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Wang, this is our company's General Manager Chen, Boss Chen."

"Hello, Mr. Chen!" Uncle Zhang quickly bowed and greeted him, his voice carrying a local accent.

"Hello, boss! Hello, boss!" Aunt Wang quickly echoed, a simple yet slightly nervous smile on her face.

"Hello." Chen Fei nodded, his gaze sweeping over their clean work clothes, and then over the old buckets and rags in their hands that had been washed until they were white.

"Mr. Chen, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang heard that our company offers weekends off and the work isn't too strenuous, so they only asked for 2000 yuan a month," Li Yunyao added, her tone implying that she was speaking up for them. "I see they have a tough job and are very meticulous, so I let them try it out for a few days. They haven't signed a formal contract yet."

Chen Fei didn't say anything. He walked to the display cabinet at the company entrance, reached out, and ran his fingertip across the top of the cabinet.

He raised his hand, his fingertips clean and spotless.

He then went to the window and touched the gaps in the window frame; there was no dust there either.

This elderly couple is indeed meticulous in their work.

"You've found a great person, thank you for your hard work." Chen Fei turned to the somewhat uneasy elderly couple, took out his phone, and said, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Wang, let's sign the formal contract in a bit. You'll each receive 4000 yuan per month, paid on the 1st of each month. Also, this is a small token of my appreciation, as a welcome gift to you both."

As he spoke, he opened WeChat, found Li Yunyao, and transferred 2000 yuan to her directly: "Yunyao, give them each 1,000 yuan."

"Ah? This...this is unacceptable! Boss!" Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang were stunned, waving their hands repeatedly, their faces turning red.

Their biggest wish is to stay and work here, since there are so few cleaning jobs available on weekends now.

To everyone's surprise, the company's young boss not only kept them on, but also increased their salaries and gave them bonuses. All their hard work these past few days had paid off.

Li Yunyao looked at Chen Fei in surprise, then quickly realized what he meant and said to the elderly couple, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Wang, please accept what the boss gave us. It's his way of showing his appreciation and also a recognition of your work."

After much persuasion, the two men, their hands trembling, accepted the red envelopes with Li Yunyao's help.

Chen Fei never expected that his attempt to simply gain charm would bring tears to the eyes of the elderly couple.

Uncle Zhang was so excited he was almost incoherent: "Thank you... thank you, boss! We'll definitely work hard! We'll definitely keep this place spotless!"

"Thank you for your hard work," Chen Fei replied to Uncle Zhang, then turned to Li Yunyao, "Is the contract ready? Let's sign it now so that Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang can rest assured."

"Ready, Mr. Chen!" Li Yunyao replied immediately. "I found a template online yesterday, and with a few modifications, it can be printed out and signed."

Before she could finish speaking, she walked briskly into the inner office.

Chen Fei followed and saw that there was an extra computer and printer inside, which puzzled him: "Where did this printer and computer come from? I don't remember them being here before."

"Oh, this," Li Yunyao said, pulling up the contract on her computer as she turned back to explain, "I thought it was inconvenient to keep going to the print shop, so I bought a used printer and computer at the nearby market. The specs aren't great, but it'll do for now. I'll get the receipts for you later; can I get them reimbursed?"

Looking at her quick movements and thoughtful arrangements, Chen Fei's opinion of her rose even higher.

This girl is not only diligent, but also has excellent observation and execution skills, and a great learning ability. I really don't know how she became a "spirited young lady".

Chen Fei smiled and nodded: "Of course I can reimburse you. In the future, if the company needs something like this, send me the payment record and the purpose after you buy it, and I'll reimburse you immediately when I see it."

This gives her a certain degree of autonomy in purchasing, and it also shows trust in her abilities.

Hearing Chen Fei's promise, Li Yunyao's smile became even more genuine: "Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll organize it and send it to you in a bit."

She quickly printed out two employment contracts.

Chen Fei took the contract and looked at it carefully. The terms were clear, and the position, responsibilities, working hours, salary and benefits were all clearly written. The benefits and weekends off were also clearly marked.

He picked up a pen and was the first to sign his name in the client's section.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang were clearly not used to dealing with such formal documents, and they were somewhat nervous.

Li Yunyao then took the contract and patiently explained it to them point by point, especially the job duties, rest time, and salary payment, until the two of them fully understood and nodded repeatedly. Only then did she guide them to sign their names in the "Party B" section and help them put their fingerprints on the contract.

"Alright, there are two copies of the contract. Keep this one safe." Li Yunyao handed one of the contracts to Uncle Zhang and gently instructed, "Your salary will be deposited into your account on the 1st of next month. If you have any problems with your work or life, feel free to tell me anytime."

"Oh, okay, okay! Thank you, Miss Li, thank you, Mr. Chen!" The elderly couple clutched the contract tightly, as if they had received a reassurance, and thanked him repeatedly, their previous anxiety completely gone.

[Ding! "Salary Constraints" triggered]

[Assessment complete. Employee happiness is extremely high, and their sense of belonging is strong. Overall, the cashback rate is set at 200%]

Almost the instant the contract was signed, a system notification sounded in Chen Fei's mind.

Chen Fei was overjoyed. He would pay 8000 per month and receive a cashback of 16000, making a net profit of 8000.

In addition to the extra income from the "cleanliness and rent collection" brought by the two of them's daily diligent cleaning, by all accounts, by hiring this elderly couple, the company not only does not spend money on labor costs each month, but can actually make a net profit of 23,000 yuan!

This deal is absolutely amazing!

However, what surprised Chen Fei even more was yet to come.

[Ding! Five employees have been successfully recruited. Mission accomplished!]

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained: 26th Floor, Jitao Building! This reward has been registered with the building management, and you can move in at any time with your identification.]
