"This, Assistant Shao, if you stay by Boss Su's side long enough, you'll understand," Jiang Qing said.
It was easy to see.
Assistant Shao had practically whisked Young Master Lin away—how could Boss Su not be furious?
The look Boss Su gave Assistant Shao at the time made it clear this wouldn’t be brushed off so easily.
As for the words she taught Shao Xingfan to say, they were exactly what Boss Su wanted to hear.
Hearing them would calm Boss Su down, and naturally, Shao Xingfan would avoid punishment.
"Secretary Jiang, do you know why Boss Su punished me?" Shao Xingfan couldn’t help but ask.
If he knew, he could avoid it in the future—no more being sent to Africa for hard labor.
Jiang Qing replied, "Think carefully. What did Boss Su say when he called you into his office?"
Shao Xingfan thought for a moment, then his face filled with shock. "You mean… Young Master Lin? Boss Su got angry because I asked Young Master Lin to help me with a computer problem?"
"Exactly," Jiang Qing nodded.
Shao Xingfan finally understood why Secretary Jiang had advised him to send Young Master Lin back by 1:40 PM.
It was a kind warning to spare him from Boss Su’s wrath.
"Secretary Jiang, you’re truly a lifesaver," Shao Xingfan said gratefully.
Not only had she warned him about Young Master Lin, but she’d also given him a way to avoid punishment.
Receiving such praise, Jiang Qing guiltily rubbed her nose.
She wasn’t some saint.
She just felt guilty and wanted to make it up to Shao Xingfan, easing her own conscience.
"We’re colleagues working under Boss Su. We should help each other, right?" Jiang Qing chuckled.
Shao Xingfan, full of loyalty, declared, "Secretary Jiang, you’re practically my savior. If you ever need anything, just ask. I’ll do everything I can to help."
"Good," Jiang Qing nodded.
After Shao Xingfan left, she let out a sigh of relief.
So much guilt.
She really needed to stop doing such underhanded things.
Meanwhile…
Less than ten minutes later, Lin Xuan arrived at Tianmu Group.
Lei Hui was already waiting at the entrance.
The moment Lin Xuan stepped in, Lei Hui approached eagerly. "Boss," he said respectfully, grinning from ear to ear.
Perfect—the boss was here. Now he could finally dump that pile of documents on him.
Lin Xuan’s temple twitched.
Here we go again.
That look on Lei Hui’s face meant another mountain of work was waiting.
Ugh.
Lin Xuan sighed.
What kind of employees had he ended up with?
"Boss, we’ve been waiting for you. Without solving this issue, the development of the battle royale game can’t proceed. We had no choice but to call you in," Lei Hui explained, leading Lin Xuan to a workstation.
"Here, Boss, take a look."
The game development team crowded around, forming multiple layers of onlookers.
They were eager to see how the boss would tackle this problem.
Lin Xuan stared at the computer screen while a staff member briefed him.
"Boss, the main issue we’re facing is…"
After listening, Lin Xuan nodded. "Got it."
His brow furrowed.
The employees whispered among themselves.
"How long do you think the boss will take to solve this?"
"I’d say an hour."
"Forty minutes, tops."
"With the boss’s skills, I bet thirty minutes is enough."
A young staff member frowned. "An hour? Thirty minutes? Are you joking? Our entire department couldn’t crack this in two days. How could the boss solve it alone in thirty minutes?"
That was impossible.
No matter how talented Lin Xuan was, solving this so quickly just wasn’t feasible.
Another employee glanced at him.
This colleague must have only joined the company a month ago—he’d never seen the boss in action.
"You’re new, so you don’t know just how incredible our boss is," the employee said proudly, as if boasting about himself.
"When we were developing King’s Pesticide, we hit a major memory issue—over 20GB, and we couldn’t reduce it no matter what."
"But when the boss stepped in, it took him less than forty minutes—thinking and coding included—to shrink it down to just a few GB."
The young staffer looked skeptical.
That impressive?
Game memory optimization was a notorious industry headache. Yet King’s Pesticide, a massive game, only took up 4-5GB?
Such efficiency drastically reduced uninstall rates and boosted player retention.
Many had wondered how Tianmu Group pulled it off, but no one had ever figured it out.
"Of course he’s impressive. Our boss is a freak of nature in computer science. There’s no problem he can’t solve," the employee bragged, beaming with pride.
Hearing this, the young staffer grew curious—just how fast would Lin Xuan solve this issue?
Lin Xuan remained focused on the screen.
Seven minutes later, he had a solution.
His fingers flew across the keyboard without pause.
The young staffer checked the time in disbelief.
Only seven minutes?
"The boss is starting already?" he muttered, stunned. "Is he just typing randomly?"
The older employee raised an eyebrow. "Does he look like he’s typing randomly?"
The young man shook his head. It didn’t seem like it.
But this problem was extremely complex.
For most people, cracking it would take weeks. Yet here was Lin Xuan, solving it in seven minutes? It sounded like a fairy tale.
Was his approach even correct?
The young staffer frowned, eyes glued to the screen.
Ten minutes passed.
Lin Xuan kept typing.
Twenty minutes.
Still going, his speed unchanged.
The young man couldn’t help wondering—
How was the boss not exhausted after typing this long?
Finally, Lin Xuan stopped.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
