28th Floor~

Zhu Yu returned to his big house and happily flopped down on the sofa.

He lazily leaned to the side, reached for the remote on the table, and turned on the television. An ancient costume drama was playing.

The plot was pretty satisfying. Zhu Yu watched two episodes before returning to his bedroom to sleep.

The next day, Zhu Yu arrived at the company full of energy.

But the assistant office seemed to have changed.

It looked like it was being renovated.

"What's going on?" Zhu Yu was utterly bewildered. Had he gone bankrupt overnight? Did he not even have a workstation anymore?

"Assistant Zhu, you should hurry into the office. The smell is rather strong out here, but it'll be done soon."

A worker who was assembling a desk ran over.

"Okay, thank you for your trouble." Zhu Yu nodded. As long as his iron rice bowl was still intact, everything else was negotiable.

Zhu Yu happily worked away in the air-conditioned office until noon.

Shen Jingmo came to the company's assistant office to inspect the renovations. Mm, not bad.

"Boss, what wind blew you over here?" The moment Zhu Yu saw Shen Jingmo, he hurried out of the office.

—[The guy who hands out work is here.]

"This place was renovated this morning. It didn't disturb you, did it?"

"Of course not."

—[Like I'd dare say it did?]

Shen Jingmo's face darkened. Couldn't he at least make his thoughts match his words?

"Two new employees will be coming here later. They're here to intern. Don't be too polite with them; if there's anything, just say it directly." Shen Jingmo handed over two résumés.

Zhu Yu obediently accepted them. "Got it!"

Shen Jingmo did not stay long. After giving his instructions, he returned to his own office.

Zhu Yu placed the résumés on the desk in front of him. Two more new employees... Hopefully, these two would be less troublesome.

Zhu Yu sighed. Just as he turned around, two pairs of leather shoes suddenly clicked against the floor behind him.

Zhu Yu turned around in confusion and came face-to-face with two huge familiar faces. Shen Jingyan! Li Yichen!!

It was over, it was over. In just two days, there was already something wrong with his eyes.

"Hey, what are you staring at? I'm here to report in," Li Yichen said irritably as he looked at Zhu Yu.

"My brother should have told you, right? I'm here to intern." Shen Jingyan spread his hands.

Zhu Yu took a deep breath and picked up the résumés again. The moment he opened the first page, he saw two familiar ID photos.

Great!!! He had guarded against everything, yet he still hadn't managed to keep these two out.

—[This iron rice bowl might as well shatter. Let it all burn!]

Next door, Shen Jingmo flipped through the documents in his hands. Those two should have arrived by now.

Zhu Yu shot the pair a murderous glare and gritted his teeth as he assigned them workstations.

"Young Master Shen, do you want some chips?" Seeing that Shen Jingyan's seat was directly behind her workstation, Su Duoduo smiled and held out the chips.

"Thanks, Duoduo." Shen Jingyan smiled and took two chips.

"Duoduo..."

"Young Master Shen..."

Li Yichen looked at the clingy pair beside him, curled his lips disdainfully, and silently pulled out his phone.

"Keep a close eye on her. Lock the windows and lock the doors."

"Tell her I'll be back soon."

Zhu Yu trembled all over as he listened from the side. I haven't even gone back yet, and you're doing things unrelated to work right in front of me?

The corners of Zhu Yu's lips curved upward slightly as he returned to his office.

He carried out a thick stack of documents from his desk.

Bang!

A thick stack of documents landed between Li Yichen and Shen Jingyan's workstations.

"What is this?" Shen Jingyan had no choice but to turn around and ask.

Li Yichen was on the phone and said nothing, merely lifting his chin.

"This is your work for this afternoon. Split these documents between yourselves and translate them for me. If you don't finish, you'll work overtime tonight. Oh, and don't say I didn't warn you. Our company shuts off the main power at exactly eight every evening. By then, the whole company will be pitch-black."

"If you plan to stay until eight, you might have to hold flashlights for each other. And once the main power is shut off, the elevators won't have electricity either."

"28th floor~" Zhu Yu winked at them. You know what I mean.

When had Li Yichen and Shen Jingyan ever been treated like this? They immediately stood up and slammed their hands down on the desks in front of them.

"How dare you treat me like this?"

"Do you know who I am?"

"Keep it down. My hearing is excellent. Of course I know who you are, but you need to understand that here, I am your superior. You are merely my subordinates. I assign work, and you complete it. That's perfectly normal."

"Oh, of course, if you're dissatisfied, you can go next door and complain to my superior."

"If you don't go, or if your complaint fails, then get to work properly. If you're a dragon, coil up for me; if you're a tiger, lie down." Zhu Yu's face was filled with dangerous intent.

...In an instant, everyone fell silent.

Zhu Yu nodded in satisfaction and turned to return to his office. But halfway there, he suddenly thought of something. He turned back and smiled sweetly at his old colleagues.

"You're not allowed to help our new employees, either. They need to learn through practice. Especially you, Su Duoduo—you still owe me several documents. Remember to finish them today."

The old employees and Su Duoduo hurriedly nodded when they saw Zhu Yu's smile.

Very good. Zhu Yu nodded in satisfaction and closed the door to his office.
