Mortal Kombat: Scumbag Men Stealing Away Yandere Girls

This is also one of the reasons why he recommended Guo Guo to Han Xin.

Dong Zhengyuan pursed his lips. He didn't believe Bai Weiran was unaware at all. Looking at Bai Weiran's innocent face, he felt a surge of venomous resentment, but he quickly suppressed it and pretended to be nonchalant.

"I asked you because I thought you were smart and had clear logic, so I was sure you would know better. Since you don't know, then forget it." Dong Zhengyuan chuckled softly, stood up, and patted Bai Weiran's shoulder again in a seemingly friendly manner.

Bai Weiran couldn't help but smile helplessly.

I don't know if Dong Zhengyuan is stupid or smart.

Being clever means knowing how to be arrogant in front of others and humble in private, putting on one face in public and another in private.

The stupidity lies in not being able to hide the bad thoughts in one's heart. Even though one knows that one is quite close to the general manager and is wary of him, one still makes sarcastic remarks in one's words.

He said something similar to him when discussing performance.

"I'm giving you a C not because you performed poorly, but because I hope you'll put more effort into our project. You understand? I'm not saying you're smart and have clear logic, so you must know what I mean, right?"

"So, is there anything you'd like to say to me about this performance review?"

At that moment, Dong Zhengyuan had a kind of smug satisfaction in his eyes as he tormented people.

He wanted to vent his frustration and resentment, which would make him feel even better.

He won't change the performance results anyway, so any struggle he faces is just a desperate fight.

This illustrates the power imbalance between superiors and subordinates in the workplace.

It's ironic to mention the word "smart" now.

Bai Weiran smiled and accepted.

"Clearly, I'm still not smart enough."

His words gave Dong Zhengyuan the feeling that Bai Weiran had half-given up, which offered him some consolation.

Dong Zhengyuan gave Bai Weiran a C performance rating, and he knew that everyone in the team felt sorry for him, but he didn't care. At Shile Company, a B performance rating meant that the bonus would be paid normally, but a C performance rating would result in a 30% deduction from the bonus. For Bai Weiran, this was the real blow that hit him hard.

Just thinking about Bai Weiran's mood during those days made him feel good.

He couldn't help but smile slightly.

"We've got a new intern, Weiran. You should be happy, right?"

"After all, you broke up with your girlfriend, haha. Are you hoping a pretty intern will come along so you can pursue her and make her your girlfriend? But she's only just turned 18. Girls her age, especially the pretty ones, have plenty of guys chasing after them. They probably wouldn't be interested in a corporate slave like you! Hahaha, I didn't mean anything by it, just kidding, don't take it seriously!"

As Dong Zhengyuan spoke, he glanced at Bai Weiran with his small, triangular eyes.

Unexpectedly, Bai Weiran gave him a bright smile.

"You don't like me? That's great."

Even if it's not the same person, if a girl who dares to jump from a 32-story building in a parallel world were to appear in reality, he would be scared out of his wits.

Dong Zhengyuan found it boring, clicked his tongue twice, and walked away. Bai Weiran stretched in his chair, looking relaxed.

Work isn't busy today, so I'll take it easy this afternoon and maybe invite Guoguo, Achao, and a few colleagues to order afternoon tea together.

His idea was approved by everyone, but after they created a group chat, they also asked people to fill out a form on the "Are you thirsty?" link in the group, and a large amount of afternoon tea was delivered to the sixteenth floor, specifically for people in the project team.

Don't rush, brothers, don't rush. This time, the female boss is flirting and fishing back.

Qin Ning needs to wait a while before revealing her identity; now is not the time.

Chapter Thirty-Six: The Surveillance Cameras Were Removed

The tea room was packed with people. Bai Weiran and A Chao were rather passive and not in a hurry. They just waited on the side, thinking they would wait until there were fewer people before taking their food. Guo Guo rushed in, like a market auntie who saw discounted items and charged forward bravely.

A little while later, Guoguo came out again, her hands full, returning triumphantly.

Wow! There's cake, fried chicken, mango yogurt, and fruit tea, and they're all from different stores.

"This cake is a homemade cake by Mu's mom, the fried chicken is from KFC, the mango yogurt is from that yogurt shop nearby that has tons of mangoes... and this fruit tea..."

"...Who ordered this?"

Ah Chao looked incredulous and took the plate of fried chicken that Guo Guo handed him.

"Which big spender is so generous?"

When ordering afternoon tea within the group, it's usually a small group of colleagues, ranging from four or five people to a dozen or so. To save time, they usually order drinks and snacks from the same place, or at most from two different places. I've never encountered a situation where everyone in the group orders a single item from one place.

Dong Zhengyuan's group doesn't have many people, but there are about forty in total.

Ah Chao's problem was everyone's problem. Everyone was eating fried chicken and drinking tea, asking each other who had sent it, but after a few minutes they suddenly fell silent.

Nobody admits it!?

Bai Weiran held a cup of mango yogurt and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Is this extravagant spending style the way office workers spend their money?

No, this is just how the boss spends money.

"Ah! Boss Han spoke in the group chat!"

Bai Weiran quickly picked up his phone to check and saw that Han Xin had specifically tagged everyone in the project group.

[Han Xin: Thank you all for your hard work, everyone in the R&D team. This afternoon tea is on me, please enjoy.]

[Han Xin: If it's not enough, just let me know in the group chat, and I'll have them send more!]

The next colleague then flooded the chat with a row of "Thank you, boss" emojis.

The speed at which it was swiped confirms the fact that humans are essentially repeaters.

Both A-Chao and Guo-Guo repeated their studies, but Bai Wei-Ran immediately grabbed her phone and didn't move.

He felt this was strange.

The company had given up hope on Dong Zhengyuan's project, so suddenly inviting him to afternoon tea seemed unreasonable. It would make sense if the entire R&D project team was invited together, but he had just inquired and found that only their team was invited.

Even Wu Ji's secret R&D team, which is now the company's darling, doesn't have it.

what happened?

In Han Xin's office, he put down his phone and looked at the obedient girl sitting on the sofa with a helpless yet affectionate gaze.

"Is this okay?"

Qin Ning smiled gently, her lips curving upwards. "Yes, thank you, Uncle."

"Ningning, you're so thoughtful. Doing good deeds quietly will only put you at a disadvantage in the workplace."

Qin Ning said she wanted to get along well with her colleagues, so she ordered afternoon tea for them.

But later she came to him and said that she was worried that she, as an intern, had ordered so much food, which would attract attention and gossip, and might bring rumors to her uncle. So Han Xin stepped forward and said that he had ordered the afternoon tea himself.

He didn't spend any money or effort; he just opened his mouth and earned both gratitude and face.

Han Xin increasingly felt that Qin Ning was an overly kind and gentle girl.

"Why don't you take a look at the group chat? Everyone's saying thank you. I've been given this title for nothing."

Qin Ning was still an intern and hadn't officially joined the company yet. She hadn't joined the company's group chat and couldn't see the long list of "thank you, boss." Han Xin handed her the phone, and as soon as Qin Ning got it, she saw the latest message pop up in the group chat.

Bai Weiran: Thank you, boss! (*^▽^*)

Qin Ning smiled with her lips pursed.

No matter what kind of person they are, they will instantly become cute once emojis are added to their profile.

She could almost picture the other person typing that sentence with a blank expression.

She has recently begun to recall some fragments of memories.

During the time she was in a coma, her consciousness went to another world.

That world was very similar to the present world. There was also a girl named Qin Ning who looked exactly like her. At the same time, Qin Ning and she fell into a coma due to a car accident. On the verge of death, her soul traveled to that world and she became the young lady of a conglomerate.

The lingering memories and emotions within her body led her to fall madly in love with a man named Lin Luo.

Just when she wanted to dedicate herself to this man and gain his love by possessing him, a masked man appeared.

He accompanied her to her studies, took her to work as a cleaner and collect recyclables, and accompanied her to dances.

They rescued her from the collapsed building during the massive earthquake.

His last memory was of his chest excruciatingly painfully bursting open amidst the frenzied roars and gunshots of one of Lin Luo's girlfriends, Qi hope.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back in this world.

She was originally a person of this world.

She remembered the masked man's voice and the appearance of his phone.

All of this is very similar to that person named Bai Weiran.

However, she needs more evidence to prove that those memories are real.

She tapped on her phone screen to type, which startled Bai Weiran on the other end.

Han Xin: You're welcome (*^▽^*)

Holy crap, my boss replied with such an adorable emoji? That burly guy's cute smile is kind of weirdly endearing!

Bai Weiran frowned, and Dong Zhengyuan saw it too, looking at him with resentment through the crowd.

The boss was surprised that his subordinate was more favored than him, and the boss called out his words in response.

Xx

Bai Weiran chose to ignore Qin Ning's affairs, intending not to care too much, but he soon realized that this was impossible.

Because of an unspeakable protective mentality, he dared not entrust Qin Ning to someone he didn't know well, but rather to someone he knew well and who was of good character. The downside was that acquaintances would always want to report news to him and chat with him.

[Guoguo: Weiran, have you seen the new intern? Ningning is so cute, Ningning is super cute!]

[Guoguo: Oh my god! I swear Ningning is the cutest girl I've ever seen in my life.]

[Guoguo: Did you know she has a beauty mark under her right eye? It's so beautiful, so adorable! Her smile is so sweet and gentle. Looking at her, inspiration is flowing freely. I absolutely have to write a character for her, a main character. You and I will conspire together to make her stats maxed out, a god-like figure in this version! I want everyone who plays our game to remember this name—Qin Ning!]

The project hasn't even launched yet, and the version god has already come up with the idea—that's outrageous.

The world hasn't even been conquered yet, and you're already appointing a Grand Marshal of the Army and Cavalry?
