Mortal Kombat: Scumbag Men Stealing Away Yandere Girls

Couldn't it be that Dong Tian is dead, and Bai Tian should take the throne?

He had no intention of going back to Sheng Nan's or Wu Ji's projects.

Rather than going to a new environment where the operational structure and power dynamics are fixed, it's better to focus on building a strong reputation in the environment where you've already established yourself.

He was writing the proposal as if this were his own future project.

Not being impatient for quick success is one thing, but it doesn't mean he can't seize opportunities when they fall into his lap.

Qin Ning did not come to comfort him.

Bai Weiran already had a clear idea in mind.

In the afternoon, Han Xin summoned him and Dong Zhengyuan together, along with Sheng Nan, another producer from the company.

Sheng Nan's expression wasn't very good, but she forced herself to act as if nothing was wrong.

"I've been considering your situation for a while now, and I've given you many opportunities." Han Xin looked at Dong Zhengyuan.

Dong Zhengyuan already had a bad feeling. He pursed his lips, which turned purple, like an eggplant that had been hit by frost.

"...But unfortunately, based on various indicators, we have determined that you are not capable enough to be a producer. We are demoting you from this position. You will return to the role of a senior numerical planner and join Sheng Nan's team."

Upon hearing this, not only Dong Zhengyuan but also Bai Weiran were secretly surprised.

The company isn't a game. Dong Zhengyuan only verbally claimed a portion of the credit for his proposal, and it didn't cause the company any major financial losses. In the end, this matter isn't insignificant, but it's not so big as to warrant firing a veteran employee.

Ultimately, Shile Company is still a company with a lot of human touch.

They are humane and won't easily fire you, but at the same time, there will be corresponding side effects—their beautiful clothes will be crawling with lice.

Bai Weiran's original plan was to strive for his own promotion and take Dong Zhengyuan's position, while Dong Zhengyuan would be demoted and become his subordinate, a complete reversal.

However, this situation will cause a problem: his project will have an extra Buddha statue.

Dong Zhengyuan used to be his boss. Although his behavior was bad, given his personality, he wouldn't target or mistreat him. He just hoped that this veteran employee would stay quietly and that would be the end of it.

Unless it's a flagship project that's particularly important, the staffing during the R&D phase is usually fixed. Currently, this R&D project is in a stage where it's neither worth keeping nor worth abandoning for the company. If he takes over and there are already senior engineers, it's not certain that he'll be allowed to add more people.

He had an idea.

But clearly, someone with a bit of cleverness had also thought of this and intervened.

Sheng Nan's project team has been trying to get Bai Weiran to join them, saying they're missing a certain numerical value.

We originally had one stat and one producer, but the current situation is still one producer and one stat.

Here's the number for you!

One cut and both sides are smooth.

Sheng Nan liked Bai Weiran before because he was capable, and the more capable people under one's command, the better.

But if capable people become equals to you, that becomes a big problem.

Those at the same level must compete for company resources.

If Dong Zhengyuan were still in Bai Weiran's group, that would be perfect. He could stir up trouble every now and then and cause him some disgusting things. Even if the project didn't fail, it would still be a lot of work.

Unexpectedly, Dong Zhengyuan was not retained, but instead was put into Sheng Nan's project.

As a veteran employee, Sheng Nan knew very well how incompetent Dong Zhengyuan was. She had kept quiet and avoided speaking ill of him to the leaders because she didn't want Dong Zhengyuan to be replaced.

A bad opponent is always better than a good one.

Sheng Nan's expression was unpleasant. She forced a smile and said to Bai Weiran, "Congratulations on your promotion. I'll treat you to dinner next time," before hurriedly leaving.

Dong Zhengyuan never expected that he would be reassigned to Sheng Nan's command.

He was momentarily relieved that he didn't have to stay in Bai Weiran's group and have to put up with his attitude, but at the same time he was filled with anxiety about his future.

Before leaving the conference room, Han Xin patted Bai Weiran on the shoulder and called him back.

“I think this is more convenient for you too, as you can recruit new people yourself,” he said.

"Although the company has reduced the budget for this project, I have faith in you. Do a good job and show the company results; the budget can be negotiated."

Bai Weiran said thank you and just stepped out of the conference room when he saw Qin Ning standing at the corner, peeking at him. She was dressed simply in a white shirt and light-colored jeans, smiling like a little fox, with the beauty mark under her eye making her even more charming and cunning.

His phone popped up with a message.

Qin Ning: Brother Weiran, wasn't I great?

Bai Weiran gave her a direct answer this time.

[Bai Weiran: You're amazing.]

Qin Ning: So how will you reward me?

Bai Weiran: …………

Speechless and then laughing.

Let's go admire the apricot leaves this weekend!

Qin Ning also smiled.

Brother Weiran is so boring; he spends all his time either copying scriptures or admiring leaves.

But she liked him just the way he was, even though he was boring.

That night at eight o'clock, Bai Weiran entered Zhen Jing's world for the last time.

He's hardly come around lately.

Zhen Jing is doing very well, extremely well. She became famous overnight with her book and even held her first book signing event last month. Unexpectedly, the number of male readers who liked her book, particularly her ethereal, gentle, kind, and harmless yandere type, has surged.

Zhen Jing has an astonishing number of suitors.

She no longer had time to think about that senior.

At a book signing event, Zhen Jing met a fan who was a race car driver. He fell deeply in love with Zhen Jing after reading her writing.

To meet Zhen Jing, he came in person, queuing up at dawn for eight hours to get the first number, just so he could say a few more words to Zhen Jing.

The same thing happened at the second, third, and fourth book signing events.

They gradually grew closer.

It's because book fans have caught up with a new story by the author.

"congratulations."

Because of Qin Ning's situation, and because Zhen Jing's condition had been quite good, Bai Weiran rarely paid attention to her, and even missed the book signing events several times. This time, he specially brought a large bouquet of flowers for Zhen Jing.

Since there were no lilies in the world, he specially ordered a large bouquet of lilies for Zhen Jing.

Because I felt that the flower suited her perfectly.

"Thank you, Godfather." Zhen Jing accepted the gift with a happy smile.

"Although I cannot express my gratitude, please accept this new book."

Bai Weiran took it and saw that it was titled "I, a Yandere Girl, am Desperately Escaping the Control of the Godfather."

The colorful cover also had a banner or slogan printed on it.

[Congratulations! In just one week since its release, it has swept the market, selling 200,000 copies!]

[Yandere is like sugar, sweet to the point of sadness]

[Two hundred thousand readers were moved to tears, urging for more updates.]

"Open it and take a look, it's about the Godfather of Gods," Zhen Jing instructed.

Bai Weiran was puzzled. He opened the book and saw a sentence printed on the first page.

Unlike printed fonts, it is handwritten.

This book is dedicated to my beloved Godfather—thank you for the encounter.

His eyes welled up with tears.

Posting this early today!! (*'▽｀)◇ゞ

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, brothers!!

Chapter Twenty-One: Fate is Always Unpredictable

A system notification sound rang out.

[Congratulations to the user for completing a C-level mission—the inappropriate romantic symptoms of the target girl, Zhen Jing, have been perfectly cured after testing. She will be sent back to her original world in ten seconds, and all channels to that world will be closed. Countdown begins: ten, nine, eight…]

Bai Weiran paused, not entirely surprised, as he had a premonition. Holding the book, he flicked his index finger in the air, and the paper and pen on the table flew smoothly to him. He picked up the pen—

Zhen Jing walked in with a delighted expression, holding the first poster specially printed by the publisher for the book signing event.

"...Godfather, this is the poster for the next book signing event. I specially asked the editor-in-chief to include you in the design. What do you think of the design...? Godfather?! Godfather!??"

There was no one in the room, only a piece of paper slowly drifting to the ground in front of her.

Zhen Jing bent down and picked it up to look at it.

The handwriting is elegant, neat, and powerful.

[When you need me but don't want me to stay, I will stay; when you don't need me but want me to stay, I will leave—to my dear, yandere author, wishing you happiness.]

Zhen Jing was startled. She clutched the paper to her chest and hurriedly ran to the balcony, gazing into the distance, trying to catch a glimpse of a distant, unreachable figure.

But I didn't see anything.

It was as abrupt as its arrival.

Zhen Jing looked at the words in her hand again.

Then she laughed.

She found a beautiful and elegant wooden frame, put the paper in it, and hung it on the wall.

A flash of white light, and I returned to the real world, where the app's system notifications kept ringing.
