Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

She placed the plastic bag in front of Zhou Fengliu, then opened it, revealing the red bills inside, as well as two small "yellow croakers" that she had taken from Zhou Fengliu's hand.

Goodness...

Upon seeing Chen Duo's secret stash of money, Zhou Fengliu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

He glanced at her briefly; Chen Duo's savings were quite substantial.

A person should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation. Chen Duo is no longer the kind of person who needs to borrow money from him just to try out a claw machine.

"You've saved up quite a bit, not bad, not bad," Zhou Fengliu said.

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's praise, Chen Duo didn't pay much attention. Seeing her calmly looking at Zhou Fengliu, she then said:

"This is all my savings since I met you... my salary, plus small amounts I got from others. After paying you back, I probably still have tens of thousands of yuan left..."

"?"

"So?" Zhou Fengliu was very curious about what Chen Duo was up to.

"So... if you really need money, I can lend it to you... you don't have to fall into depravity and become a rich woman's plaything..."

Chen Duo said that although the amount of money was not much, it was all money she had saved up piece by piece.

Her monthly salary and bonuses, smuggled from the enemy... she accumulated this wealth little by little until today.

Although she was indeed a little reluctant, after all, she had saved up for so long, but... she felt that rather than going on a trip, she didn't want to see Zhou Fengliu fall into depravity and become some rich woman's plaything...

"borrow?"

"A rich woman's plaything?"

"What is all this nonsense?"

Listening to Chen Duo's words, Zhou Fengliu's expression resembled that of an elderly person looking at their phone on the subway, somewhat confused about what Chen Duo was talking about.

How did he fall into depravity?

It's true that he's short of money... but not to the point where he needs to borrow money from Chen Duo!

"Who told you I was going to become degenerate?"

Zhou Fengliu felt there must be something fishy about this, otherwise Chen Duo wouldn't have realized it at all.

"..."

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's question, Chen Duo unsurprisingly betrayed Zhuge Qing, repeating to Zhou Fengliu word for word what Zhuge Qing had said after Zhou Fengliu and Qu Tong got into the car last night.

After hearing Chen Duo's description, Zhou Fengliu looked as if he had not expected it.

Old Qing, oh Old Qing...

You know quite a lot.

That's what Zhou Fengliu was thinking.

Although the story was fake, the friendship was real. Seeing that Chen Duo was willing to give him her savings, Zhou Fengliu felt a sense of relief.

The money-grubbing disciple...doesn't just exploit his master.

In crucial moments... they really can step up.

Row.

Duozi is a good person, better at getting along with people than Lao Qing...

"Duozi, are you willing to give me all your money?" Zhou Fengliu asked.

Upon hearing this question, Chen Duo glanced at the black plastic bag on the table, then corrected Zhou Fengliu's statement:

"It's a loan, it has to be returned..."

"..." Zhou Fengliu.

Hmm.

That's unnecessary.

Zhou Fengliu shook his head and waved to Chen Duo, saying:

"Keep this money you've worked so hard to save. Don't be so frugal; spend it when you need to..."

"You always wear a work uniform, completely covered up, yet you've managed to suppress the primordial poison, haven't you? You're still a young girl, shouldn't you buy some clothes?"

Speaking of Chen Duo's work clothes, it's as if they're welded to her body; aside from a set of pajamas for sleeping, they're practically her everyday clothes...

Faced with Zhou Fengliu's lecturing, Chen Duo looked at her work clothes.

how to say?

She didn't feel there was anything wrong with her work uniform...

Comfortable and durable.

Most importantly... it doesn't cost any money, which is great.

"No money..." Chen Duo replied with two words.

These two concise words left Zhou Fengliu speechless for a moment. He looked at the red bills on the table and asked, "What's this?"

"I'm keeping this because I might need it..."

"..." Zhou Fengliu.

"My relationship with President Qu was just normal social interaction. I haven't fallen into depravity. In the end, take your money and leave my office."

"okay."

After receiving confirmation that Zhou Fengliu had not fallen into depravity, Chen Duo nodded, then carefully put her savings back into her pocket before leaving the office.

Watching Chen Duo leave the office, Zhou Fengliu was at a loss for words regarding Chen Duo's penny-pincher nature.

He hadn't expected this either...

How did Chen Duo, who was ignorant of human affairs, lived as a Gu, and wanted to choose power, unknowingly turn into a miserly character?

Chen Duo: Life boils down to two words (kissing) and making money!

I don't know what she's going to do with all that money? She doesn't have the passive Qi cultivation ability of "money is power"...

Zhou Fengliu had a question in his mind, but just as he had it, a memory seemed to flash through his mind...

He vaguely remembered that Chen Duo had expressed the idea of ​​saving money to travel...

Is that the case?

Zhou Fengliu stroked his chin, then made a call to Hua Nan, instructing Zhang Lingyu to increase Chen Duo's base salary by 500 yuan per month...

...

Just as Zhou Fengliu was calling Zhang Lingyu, Zhuge Qing, who was still unaware of what was going on, smiled and held a document, ready to ask Zhou Fengliu to sign it.

He had just peeked out when his eyes met Zhou Fengliu's. Seeing the expression on Zhou Fengliu's face, his smile vanished.

What happened?

Why does Old Zhou look so pale?

Could it be...

Did you overwork yourself last night?

Chapter 445 Welcome to the Opposition Lane! (Second Update)

Dangerous!

As a sorcerer, Zhuge Qing naturally knew how to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.

The instant he realized something was wrong, Zhuge Qing didn't hesitate for a second, and made an emergency evasive action entirely out of instinct.

He suddenly did a 180-degree turn, attempting to fire his gun stealthily, and then returned the way he came...

However, he underestimated the still-perfect Zhou Fengliu.

"Old Qing, you need something from me, right?" Zhou Fengliu called out to Zhuge Qing, who was in a hurry to take cover.

Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhuge Qing's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

"Mr. Jay Chou... I'm fine, just taking a stroll..." Zhuge Qing said as he walked into the office.

"Taking a stroll... Hmm, young people are quite capable. With such a heavy workload on Nathan Island, you can still handle it with such ease... I'm quite pleased."

"By the way, I have a few more tasks here that I'm afraid I'll have to hand over to you. Old Qing, the capable should do more... please work hard."

"?"

Hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhuge Qing raised an eyebrow slightly.

Although his current workload is still within acceptable limits, it hasn't reached a point where he's particularly idle.

"Mr. Zhou, I'm afraid..." Zhuge Qing tried to find an excuse for himself.

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Fengliu suddenly interrupted him:

"Old Qing, if you don't work hard when you're young, you'll only end up as a rich woman's plaything..."

"You are more capable than me, so don't refuse."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Qing instantly realized where the source of today's unexpected disaster came from.

It turns out there was a traitor among them!

Chen Duo must have told Zhou Fengliu what he said last night.

Realizing this, Zhuge Qing was left speechless, unable to voice his grievances, and could only agree and accept the job.

"Jay Chou is right."

Seeing Zhuge Qing reap what he sowed, Zhou Fengliu stood up, patted Zhuge Qing on the shoulder, and then said:

"Keep up the good work, Lao Qing... Your future is definitely bright."

bright?

Zhuge Qing did not sense anything at all.
