Mortal Kombat: Scumbag Men Stealing Away Yandere Girls

“Qin Ning, you don’t need to be so humble.” He slightly bent his knees, looked the girl in the eye, and said earnestly.

"I know who you are. The general manager told me that although you are currently an intern, you are actually one of our bosses. You don't need to be so timid with us. Guoguo has also always praised you for being excellent, quick to understand things, and helpful to her a lot."

“You and we will be different in the future. When you encounter problems, don’t rush to apologize to anyone. I suggest you ask General Manager Han first. He should be the one to teach you.”

She wants to learn company management, so she should be taken better care of by company managers.

Unfortunately, being a corporate slave and being a manager are not the same training path.

"Are you helping me because of my identity?" the girl asked, her expression somewhat somber.

Bai Weiran paused.

Actually, no, but he couldn't explain why.

“No,” he said.

"I just think you're a lot like one of my... little sisters. Ah, but that sounds more like an excuse. Just think of me as trying to curry favor with my future boss." He gently patted the girl's shoulder, smiled, and turned to leave.

The moment the door closed, the girl's innocent and delicate expression changed.

Her eyes were slightly upturned, giving her a shrewd look and an air of arrogance. The light in her eyes had faded, and she placed one hand on the left shoulder that Bai Weiran had touched.

"...Sister? Ha..."

Back at his workstation, Bai Weiran crossed his arms and began to reflect on himself.

Yu Mengmeng's mission failed, and Qin Ning from a parallel world suddenly appeared in front of him, which really threw him into a panic, and he has been hesitant to start a new mission for a while.

They've all moved on, and now they live their own lives in other worlds.

Doing tasks only involves spending a very short time together.

Everyone understands the principle, but when it comes down to it, it's really hard to separate human emotions from reason.

Bai Weiran couldn't help but sigh—if only he could ask other users, to know how others dealt with the sense of loss when a relationship suddenly ended.

A beep sounded; it was a WeChat message from Achao for his business.

[Ah Chao: Brother Weiran, it's Friday today, how about we go grab a couple of drinks?]

Bai Weiran felt the invitation came at the perfect time; he really should go for a drink and relax.

Bai Weiran: No problem.

Ah Chao, sitting at his workstation, made a victory sign, which drew a puzzled look from his colleague next to him.

But after a while, Bai Weiran sent a message.

[Bai Weiran: Ah Chao, let's add Wu Ji. He's new here and doesn't know the area well! Let's take him with us.]

Ah Chao's face immediately fell.

But in the end, no one was able to go because an emergency occurred during the operation of the project that night.

The event version was released on Wednesday, and the planner was responsible for filling out the form to control the values. Bai Weiran had to deal with a development project, so he handed over the form-filling work to another planner in the operations team. However, this planner had a brain fart and filled in the wrong values.

And it's a big problem.

He filled in the recharge reward and event reward tables backwards, meaning that players received event rewards after recharging.

This was outrageous! Player complaints surged, forcing the entire server to shut down immediately to handle the situation. All team members stayed behind to work overtime, and even though Guoguo and Bai Weiran were only providing support, they still had a duty to fulfill.

Even if Guoguo is a copywriter, she can't escape it. If something happens, no one can leave.

Logically, such a basic error shouldn't happen; it should have been detected during internal testing. But no one can be perfect and never make mistakes.

They urgently shut down the service that day, held a meeting to provide compensation, and the process didn't end until 3 a.m.

On the express train late at night, all was silent; everyone was too exhausted to speak.

Even doing nothing and just enduring the long hours is exhausting.

Bai Weiran leaned out of the front seat and spoke to Guoguo in the back seat.

"I just used your home address to call a car, so please have the driver drive to your house first."

**

Wei Ran escorted the yandere girl home late at night, tsk tsk tsk.

Chapter 40 I'll let you off this time.

This is an old habit of Bai Weiran and Guoguo, who are long-time partners.

To save money, Guoguo lived a bit far from the company in an old neighborhood. It was fine most of the time, but Bai Weiran always felt uneasy about her going home late at night. So he would always take a taxi with her and drop her off at her doorstep before going home himself.

Guoguo nodded, then gestured for Bai Weiran to be quiet and pointed to Qin Ning, who was curled up by the car window, fast asleep.

"Don't wake her up," Guoguo said in a low voice.

Qin Ning also stayed behind.

Actually, she was just an intern under Guoguo's supervision, and the accident had nothing to do with her. Guoguo had already advised her to go back at nine o'clock, but Qin Ning did not leave. She said that crisis management of accidents is also a kind of learning, and she wanted to stay and accompany her colleagues in the project team.

Guoguo was very touched, her heart filled with joy. This child is truly an angelic and ambitious one.

"Where does she live?" Bai Weiran asked in a low voice.

Judging from the situation, we have no choice but to send Qin Ning home.

"I don't know. I heard her say before that it was in a nearby neighborhood, but she didn't specify."

Bai Weiran's mind flashed through several upscale residential communities near the company.

Qin Ning didn't tell Guo Guo, probably because she was afraid that revealing her identity as a rich second-generation would make it impossible to hide.

Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, neither of them had the heart to wake her, so they escorted Guoguo home.

Before leaving, Guoguo carefully reminded him while holding onto the car window.

"You must make sure Ningning gets home safely."

"Row."

Guoguo let go of Bai Weiran's hand, and just as Bai Weiran closed the car window, Guoguo suddenly reached out again. Bai Weiran quickly withdrew her hand to avoid being pinched by the car window.

Guoguo peeked over with a serious expression.

"I trust your character, Bai Weiran."

"You wouldn't do anything like embezzling from your own office, would you?"

Bai Weiran: …………

"Guoguo, you keep talking about being a good brother, but is this really the kind of person you think I am?"

"You can't blame me. A beautiful and delicate young woman and a heartbroken, long-suffering single man, it's hard not to overthink things."

Bai Weiran noticed that the driver had started giving him a strange look.

It makes me feel like a criminal with intent to commit a crime.

"Shut up! I promise I absolutely won't! If you're worried, I'll set up location sharing so you can monitor whether I get home safely, okay?"

Guoguo didn't really think it was necessary to go this far, but Bai Weiran insisted on clearing his name, so she accepted it.

In order to wake Qin Ning up, Bai Weiran had no choice but to move from the front seat to the back seat.

"Qin Ning, wake up."

He gently nudged the girl, and she groggily opened her eyes and rubbed them.

"...Are we...home?"

I was completely half asleep.

"You didn't tell us where you live. Tell me your address first, and I'll ask the driver to change the destination."

Qin Ning gave the name of a residential community, and Bai Weiran remained silent for a few seconds.

Goodness, that's the most expensive and newest upscale residential area near the company, with a view overlooking the river.

The car started moving again, and Qin Ning woke up, her eyes still glazed over, not quite fully awake.

"It's a bit...cold in the car..."

She was indeed dressed lightly. It was already autumn, and while it was still hot during the day, the temperature dropped at night. Bai Weiran wasn't particularly afraid of the heat. She had put on a light jacket when she left the company, initially worried about catching a cold, but then felt hot and took it off, keeping it in her hand the whole time.

Seeing Qin Ning looking so pitiful, he handed her his coat.

"Just bear with it for now, use this cover, we'll be at your house soon."

"It's harder to work when you're sick than anything else. Take care of yourself."

Bai Weiran is a man who can't stop talking about work.

The drivers in front couldn't help but roll their eyes.

The little girl's concerns were unnecessary.

Qin Ning gave an "oh," and Bai Weiran glanced at the road conditions before turning back—

...?? We agreed she'd cover herself up, so why is she wearing it??

His coat looked too big on Qin Ning, with only her slender fingers showing at the cuffs. The girl was huddled up, her face hidden in the shadows, so Bai Weiran couldn't see her clearly.

Is she probably asleep again?

"...Brother Weiran and Sister Guoguo are really close."

"...?!" Turns out he wasn't asleep.

"Brother Weiran still has Sister Guoguo's home address saved on his phone!"

Do you often go to Sister Guoguo's house?

Her tone was innocent and naive, like a little sister asking about gossip.

Bai Weiran and Guoguo are close, and their colleagues have been teasing them about it for a long time. Bai Weiran is immune to this kind of gossipy tone and just waves his hand calmly.

"No, it's just that we worked overtime together before, and it's too dangerous for her to go home alone late at night."

"Do you often go to Sister Guoguo's house?" Qin Ning asked again, stubbornly.

There lies a stubbornness and questioning that is not easily seen, but Bai Weiran misjudged it, thinking that she was just a girl who liked to gossip about love.
