Guoguo has a high school friend who also happened to join Shile, working in the human resources department.

To maintain secrecy within the company, the two did not mention their friendship to anyone.

The human resources department is the most astute; it's the company's intelligence hub, and they can discern the company's current direction simply by observing personnel changes.

Guoguo saw Bai Weiran about to take the meat away, so she quickly called out.

"That hanging dragon, that hanging dragon! Give it to me and I'll tell you." That's the last piece!

Bai Weiran: ...

Guoguo has a very strong obsession with the last piece, which is probably a common human trait. She has no resistance to the idea that it's the last piece, a limited edition, etc.

Bai Weiran always felt that—why not order another plate?

But everyone has their quirks, and he accepted them with equanimity.

Guoguo, satisfied with the meat, continued, "I heard that the general manager is busy with other things and has no time to sort out the merger project, so he has temporarily put Dong Zhengyuan's project aside. Haven't you seen how smug Dong Zhengyuan is lately, and he's started coming to us to assign us work again?"

"With Dong Zhengyuan's arrival, a lot more of my hair is going to die. When will the cost of hair transplantation be included in the workers' compensation?"

"Is something wrong, General Manager? It can't be anything bad, can it?" Bai Weiran asked with concern.

After all, the general manager had always taken good care of him.

"It wasn't him. I heard that a friend's daughter woke up."

"My friend's daughter has woken up?"

"This is what I heard, and it's not entirely accurate. Isn't the HR manager close to the general manager? He heard it from the general manager. My best friend is also part of his faction, so she heard it from him too. Apparently, this friend is more than ten years older than the general manager and started her business much earlier. She even gave the general manager a lot of help when they were starting their business."

"Later, in a car accident, the father protected his daughter and died on the spot, while the girl fell into a deep coma."

"The general manager has always regretted this incident. Now that he heard that the girl has woken up, he rushed over immediately, hoping to help her and also to comfort his friend's spirit in heaven."

Bai Weiran didn't think this matter had anything to do with him.

Just treat it as gossip.

The general manager is indeed a person of good character.

He was thinking about something else—

In that parallel world tonight, at midnight, a holographic open-world game, reportedly eight years in development, is about to launch, named "Pure Land".

As a game enthusiast and designer, how could I not be excited about such a game product that is ahead of my current technology?

He was eager to try it out and decided to bring Yu Mengmeng along.

Therefore, the stingy Bai Weiran even painfully used his points to exchange for the world's currency to buy games and equipment.

Indeed, he was busy at work and had to play games with Yu Mengmeng after get off work. He didn't have time to find a temporary job or anything to save money, so he had to use up his points.

Yu Mengmeng was even more excited about the new game than he was, sitting on the floor with a red-hatted electrician duck plush toy, watching Bai Weiran inspect the equipment.

"Is it ready? Is it ready? Is it ready?"

"Not yet, we can only play at midnight! Go put your pants on."

The girl said "oh" and reluctantly ran to put on a pair of shorts, then ran back.

"Is it ready? Is it ready? Is it ready?"

"Not yet, we can only play at 12 o'clock. Go take a shower."

The girl came and went in a whirlwind, without even changing her clothes, her hair slightly damp at the ends.

Bai Weiran didn't even look up, staring intently at the instruction manual, multitasking.

Did you use soap?

Yu Mengmeng stomped her feet in frustration, her little mouth pouting so much it could scare a pig, and went into the bathroom again, exhaling a fragrance that seemed to come from pouring a whole basin of shower gel over her body.

"Is it ready? Is it ready? Is it ready?"

"...Did you wash your hair?"

"…………"

She went back to the bathroom.

After checking the equipment, Bai Weiran began watching the game's promotional video, looking thoughtful, like a professional.

Chapter Six: Using Gender Switching (Bonus Chapter)

"I'm all better! I'm all better! I'm all better!"

Yu Mengmeng shouted loudly and reached out to grab the equipment, but the equipment immediately floated up and became farther and farther away from her hand.

"I've already washed!" Yu Mengmeng exclaimed anxiously.

“Yes, but my hair hasn’t been dried yet, and my whole body is still wet,” Bai Weiran said.

"The instruction manual states that the device should not come into contact with moisture."

Yu Mengmeng rolled her eyes and jumped up. Bai Weiran immediately understood what she wanted to do, and with a flick of his finger, he made her float in mid-air.

Yu Mengmeng tried to jump onto the bed and roll around to wipe the water droplets off her body onto the bed.

That's outrageous, that's outrageous.

Have you ever seen such a lazy and beautiful girl?

Those who are obsessed with white-haired, red-eyed lolis and Chinese-style cuteness should definitely check this out; this girl is guaranteed to shatter your illusions.

Bai Weiran thought to himself, while directing the bath towel that floated out to wipe Yu Mengmeng from head to toe. Then he used a clean towel to rub her head hard on those fine, snow-white hairs and used the natural breeze to dry them.

He's busy with all this. What's Yu Mengmeng doing?

She was floating in mid-air, kicking her legs wildly.

Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet?

"Not yet." Bai Weiran replied coldly.

"Waaaah! I'm going to make a scene, I'm going to make a huge scene!!"

The S-class girl truly lives up to her reputation.

If it weren't for the app notification he had, he would have been completely fooled by Yu Mengmeng.

Yu Mengmeng now looks like a complete internet gaming addict; she throws a tantrum if she doesn't get what she wants!

He actually knew the real reason.

Su Cheng also plays this game, "Pure Land".

Since he's a scumbag favored by fate, if he wasn't born with any special abilities, then there must be a place where he can use them, and this game is where he can do just that.

【Pure Land】claims to be 81% realistic in comparison to the real world, making it the project that most challenges the limits of holographic simulation games. Moreover, in order to attract players at the beginning, 【Pure Land】offered a high reward, with seven secret treasures hidden in this world, and the exploration period is three months.

Players who obtain the treasure can exchange it for a large bonus in real life if they can protect it until the last moment of March.

Virtual becomes real.

Upon hearing this, people all over the world, whether professional, amateur, or not gamers, went crazy and flocked to the event.

Su Cheng has average abilities and physical fitness, but his incredible luck is extraordinary.

He fell off a cliff but survived. He hung from a tree and found the secret treasure hidden in a snake cave in the middle of the cliff.

He and his harem fought the BOSS together. They fought until the BOSS was low on health, with only one last hit left. He was the only melee swordsman in the team who could move. Everyone watched with bated breath as he delivered the final blow. After they finished, he walked up to the BOSS, suddenly put down his sword, stretched out his hand, and gave a gentle smile.

"I know you only attacked all the intruders because you were insecure and wanted to protect yourself..."

He went to flirt with that flower fairy queen.

This triggered a secret storyline where the Queen bestowed a treasure upon the Queen.

Basically, you can succeed anywhere you go. Once you acquire the secret treasure, you'll have the world at your fingertips. In the future, you'll reach the top of the [Pure Land] rankings and become a legend.

Unlike Qin Ning, who had obvious withdrawal symptoms, Yu Mengmeng quickly stopped mentioning Su Cheng, but in fact, judging from her behavior, she hadn't forgotten him at all.

However, Bai Weiran was not afraid.

It's something you always have to work with, just like with any product; after it's launched and tested, it's constantly being adjusted and refined.

Playing this game is also very necessary for her.

The most important core purpose of multiplayer online games is social interaction.

Multi-class team balance, large-scale events such as siege battles and territory defense battles are all ways to enhance social interaction.

Yu Mengmeng must move away from single-player or two-player online games and make new friends.

He was simply a protector who stayed by her side to prevent her from running back to that kind of scumbag boyfriend.

Bai Weiran pondered—could he use this reason to appeal? He wanted to apply for a government subsidy and have the app refund the points he had redeemed.

Her hair was dried, her pants were on, and the white-haired loli landed steadily from mid-air. Her white hair, blown by the natural wind, was as smooth and shiny as silk, and paired with her red eyes, she was indescribably cute.

"Hurry! I am King Urgent!"

"I know you're in a hurry, but listen to me, don't rush, don't rush."

The device is very lightweight; it is worn over the eyes and automatically turns on when it detects a person's body temperature.

Yu Mengmeng couldn't wait. She lay on the bed, put on the device, and her heart was pounding.

She's going to find Brother Cheng!

Tell Cheng-gege that she has been kidnapped by a vicious kidnapper and ask him to call the police to rescue her as soon as possible!

Cheng-gege is so gentle, he must be so worried about what she said that he can't have peace of mind every day, right?

I'll look really pathetic then.

Because she was so happy thinking about it, a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

Bai Weiran stood by the bed, watching her smile. He smiled back, sat down in a chair, and logged in.

First, there was a blank space, and then his feet were suspended in mid-air. After about two seconds, he felt solid ground beneath his feet. He was in a sphere surrounded by countless green codes. Yu Mengmeng was wandering around and touching things in this sphere. When she turned around, she saw Bai Weiran and couldn't hide her shock.

"...We haven't even entered the game world yet, why?"

Bai Weiran touched his chin and exclaimed "Oh ho!"
