Chapter 9

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Dark clouds suddenly gathered on a sunny day as if the messenger of the night had blown a bugle call, and a cold wind whistled.

At that moment, a lightning bolt suddenly tore through the dark clouds. With a flash of light, the Thunder sounded like a war drum, and the wind blew even faster.

The dark clouds were roaring outside the window, and the wind was howling.

The office was eerily silent.

There was no wind, no sound, and no breath.

It was quiet.

In the quiet office, there was no sound at all. The faint nervous heartbeat and exciting breathing sounds were observed in the dark.

Qi Yuan walked into the office with the word Pessimist above his head. He didn’t know what had happened, but his heart beat faster, and sensed a hint of danger.

‘The office was very quiet, and everyone looked very nervous.

‘No, the feeling shouldn’t be nervous. It didn’t feel right.

‘It seemed to be the excitement of secretly watching p*rn?

‘Without a doubt, the main character of the p*rn, I mean, the main character of the scary action movie was…

‘Zhao Xuan and Lin Shu.’ Qi Yuan thought.

Qi Yuan’s gaze also shifted to Zhao Xuan and Lin Shu.

Qi Yuan quietly sneaked back to his work desk. He looked at Lin Shu and Zhao Xuan, then lowered his head and quickly asked the others on WeChat what had happened.

It was still quiet.

ACHOO!

Chen Ping sneezed loudly and woke everyone up in silence. He said awkwardly in a low voice, “The temperature of the air conditioner in the office is a little low.”

It was as if a stone had been thrown into the quiet office, and ripples gradually spread out.

Some people were so excited that they started typing and sending messages to their friends on WeChat to share the shocking scene they had just seen. It was really exciting and awesome.

Some people felt hurt because they worked overtime every day. In fact, their work efficiency was not low, but they stayed to work overtime to grind their time.

Of course, even more, people looked at Lin Shu in shock. They really didn’t expect Lin Shu to actually say such truth. He said it so well and so terrifyingly!

It was terrifying!

Everyone thought Lin Shu was defying the heavens and fighting, and they felt excited about it!

“If there’s no shortage of manpower and they work overtime every night, it doesn’t mean that the workload is full. It can only mean one thing: work efficiency during the day is too low!”

What Lin Shu had said was filled with the light of the righteous!

Lin Shu also didn’t expect him to say it out loud in front of his superior.

Lin Shu looked at Zhao Xuan, his heart thumping. He was a little nervous, a little excited, and a little uneasy at the same time, but all these thoughts were gradually drowned out by joy.

At that moment, Lin Shu overlooked his rapidly increasing Exp. Points.

Zhao Xuan was very embarrassed. In fact, he regretted it the moment he said “Is the workload not enough?”. It didn’t matter if Lin Shu left after work or not. He shouldn’t have been in the office and said that in front of many people.

Zhao Xuan should have discussed this matter with Lin Shu in private. He shouldn’t have been so direct. However, it was obvious that he had been angered by Lin Shu’s direct rejection.

The key was that Lin Shu had even directly replied that the workload was insufficient.

It made the situation very awkward.

Zhao Xuan was naturally angry, but he knew well that Lin Shu was telling the truth. However, this kind of truth was wrong, and it was politically incorrect!

“We’ll talk about that in the meeting room later,” said Zhao Xuan.

Zhao Xuan’s expression changed, turning to Tan Yan with a rugged look. “You must prepare the documents for the Commerce Department. That is even more urgent. Do that first.

“Hurry up and finish it. Keep the Commerce Department from urging us!”

Tan Yan naturally nodded and didn’t dare to say anything more.

Tan Yan didn’t dare to say that he was busy and didn’t have time. Just now, Lin Shu’s words made him feel ashamed, like a slap to his face.

Although Tan Yan was displeased, he knew Lin Shu was telling the truth.

The truth was the scariest thing.

Tan Yan didn’t think Lin Shu would be so reckless as to say something like that in front of the leader.

As expected from a youngster. Unable to stand things and too impulsive.

Tan Yan glanced at Lin Shu from the corner of his eyes and couldn’t help but curse in his heart. ‘Bah! Stop pretending!

‘You dare to say that my work efficiency is low! You’ll suffer later!’

After Zhao Xuan talked to Tan Yan, he asked Lin Shu to go to the meeting room. Naturally, Lin Shu had to go with him.

Perhaps because Lin Shu had said it directly, he became very calm. There was no point in overthinking. It was just a job. At most, he would just resign. There was no need to overthink. Although Lin Shu didn’t keep yelling about quitting like Qi Yuan, he had thought about quitting in his mind more than once.

The other important thing was that Lin Shu now noticed that the Exp. Points he gained from killing the monsters with the Word of Truth. On the contrary, it should be that the Exp. Points he gained from killing the monsters with those words had broken through his current level, Level 19.

‘I could level up now!

‘That way, I could use the Wishing Talisman and ascend to the higher realm. This office would no longer be able to accommodate me.

‘I’m destined to leave this place.’ Lin Shu thought.

Lin Shu’s mood became even calmer and more at ease. He followed Zhao Xuan and walked towards the meeting room.

…

The wind outside was getting stronger. The lightning tore the black clouds apart, making a rumbling sound.

At the next moment, the black sky was finally torn apart, and rain fell from the sky like sharp arrows, smashing down with an aura that was not afraid of death, causing blood to flow.

The hero shall go and never come home, for his heart is set.

In the eyes of many people in the office, Lin Shu was a true warrior who dared to face his bleak life and blood dripping.

Lin Shu was a true martyr!

Lin Shu walked past Huang Wen, and Huang Wen couldn’t help but secretly give Lin Shu a thumbs up. He really admired Lin Shu. Huang Wen actually dared to say such words in front of the leader. He was really his idol.

Lin Shu looked at Huang Wen’s thumbs-up and felt very calm.

Huang Wen simply looked at Lin Shu’s back. He was filled with admiration from the bottom of his heart, ‘Lin Shu was mighty and fearless. He was a role model for our generation!’

Lin Shu’s words were known to everyone, but no one dared to speak the truth. No one dared to say it out loud.

But now, Lin Shu has said it directly, loud and clear! He was fearsome. The truth is the most powerful force in the world.

Huang Wen took out his phone and typed on WeChat. He was also very excited. He had to share this with his friends …

[Guys, my senior is really amazing! He was almighty, so brave. This is exciting. He’s fantastic and fierce. You guys won’t believe what he just did.]

[Damn, you’re so excited. How exciting is the news?]

[What did he do?]

[Don’t tell me…]

[Did he force a kiss on you?]
