Resentful Gaze

Previously, Foxtail was a novel enthusiast who had read many books.

But after reading a few of Lin Xuan's novels, he couldn't get into anyone else's work.

He always felt that, apart from the boss's novels, everyone else's writing was pure garbage; he simply couldn't read it.

Basically, whenever the boss updated, he would rush to read it.

Now, the boss had been on a hiatus for half a month, and Foxtail opened the novel app over a dozen times every day to check.

But there was still no update from the boss.

He even had the impulse to grab a knife, bring a small whip, rush to the boss's home, and force him to update.

However, the boss lived with Boss Su.

A terrifying she-devil like Boss Su—he didn't dare show up at their door. He could only wait at the company for the boss to arrive. After hoping for so long, he had finally waited for the boss.

Lin Xuan pressed his aching temples and nodded helplessly, "Alright, I'll update. Tomorrow, I'll release a massive update of thirty thousand words."

After returning, he would enter the space. Besides writing those thirty thousand words, he would also strive to finish a month's worth of backlogged chapters.

Foxtail said, "Thirty thousand words, isn't that a bit too little? Boss, you've already been on hiatus for over ten days. Thirty thousand words can't make up for the updates from those days."

Lin Xuan could only reply, "Then a massive update of sixty thousand words."

"Great!"

Foxtail had achieved his goal.

He was happy.

"Boss, you get busy then. I won't disturb you any further."

Foxtail left Lin Xuan's office cheerfully.

As the reader with the strongest connections among those waiting for Lin Xuan's novel updates, the moment he stepped out of the office, he took out his phone and announced in the group chat.

[Tomorrow, a massive novel update of sixty thousand words @everyone]

The previously quiet group chat was instantly flooded with messages.

The group members cheered in unison.

[Finally, an update!]

[Wah, I can die without regrets now. This faithful man is willing to donate ten pounds of his body fat.]

[Only ten pounds? How stingy. I'm willing to donate twenty pounds of fat!]

[I'll do thirty!]

[No internal competition! Fine, I'm not pretending anymore, I'm coming clean. I'll donate forty-five pounds.]

As soon as Foxtail left Lin Xuan's desk, the staff from the technical department prepared to go in.

Lei Hui came over with a stack of documents.

"Move aside."

Lei Hui directly pushed aside the technical department manager who was about to speak.

The technical department staff grumbled internally.

Doesn't Vice President Lei know how to queue?

Even if he's my superior, he can't just cut in line like that. Doesn't Vice President Lei know the boss's time is precious?

If the boss leaves later, who will solve our department's technical problems?

However, the technical department manager only dared to grumble about this in his heart and didn't dare say it to Lei Hui's face.

"Boss."

Lei Hui placed the documents on the desk with a beaming smile.

"Please take a look at these."

Lei Hui's smile was rather ingratiating.

Lin Xuan pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Leave them here. I'll handle them right away."

"Everyone, please leave. For other matters, wait until I finish processing these documents."

"Yes."

Everyone exited the office.

Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief.

Finally, some peace and quiet.

He felt that every time he came to the company, it was like going through a trial.

Lin Xuan took the documents and entered the space to handle them.

Inside the space, the flow of time was slower, and it allowed one to maintain a highly focused attention span—a great place for work.

After finishing his work, Lin Xuan wrote another seventy thousand words for his novel.

Only then did he exit the space.

Compared to the space, under normal circumstances when he had nothing else to do, he preferred to stay in reality.

After leaving the space, Lin Xuan didn't immediately walk out of the office. Instead, he sat at his desk, playing with his phone.

"Ah."

Lin Xuan sighed.

There hadn't been much news about Lin Li lately. Admittedly, without Lin Li as a source of amusement, things were quite boring.

However, in a few days, he would get to watch the show with Lin Qingwan.

A cold glint flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes.

On the surface, Lin Qingwan seemed remorseful.

But deep down, she was just as selfish and self-serving as the other members of the Lin family.

Her recent good attitude towards him and her talk of making amends were merely to alleviate her own guilt.

Once her own interests were involved, Lin Qingwan would likely show her true colors again.

He was somewhat curious to see what expression Lin Qingwan would have when, in a while, she found out that he and Jiang Yutong were joining forces to deal with her.

Lin Xuan closed his eyes and slept for a while longer at his desk. Then he picked up his phone and contacted Lei Hui.

"I've finished processing the documents. You and the person in charge of the 'Chicken Dinner' game, come to my office."

As for the Lin family, he'd better leave them alone for now. Making money was the priority.

Although the money he earned now was enough for him to squander for a lifetime, who would ever complain about having too much money?

Lei Hui walked into the office.

He flipped through the documents.

His eyes were filled with admiration for Lin Xuan.

Truly worthy of being their boss, so impressive.

In less than an hour, he had gone through all these documents and provided many practical suggestions.

The boss was simply a genius among geniuses.

Thinking of this, Lei Hui gave the boss a resentful look.

If only the boss could spend a bit more time on work, how great that would be...

Lin Xuan ignored Lei Hui's resentful gaze, pretending not to notice.

"Manager Wang."

Lin Xuan looked at the person in charge of the "Chicken Dinner" game.

"How is the development of the 'Chicken Dinner' game going now?" Lin Xuan asked.

Manager Wang replied, "It's almost done. However, there are still a few issues that haven't been resolved."

"What issues?" Lin Xuan frowned.

Manager Wang had been waiting for Lin Xuan to ask this very question.

The problem they were facing was quite tricky. The entire department had been stuck on it for ten days.

The boss was omnipotent. With his help, it would surely be resolved quickly.

"Boss, please come with me."

Manager Wang gestured with a smile.

"Alright." Lin Xuan nodded.

He followed Manager Wang to a computer in the game development department.

He operated on the computer for a moment.

"Boss, this is the problem. When we simulate the number of online users, the load capacity isn't sufficient. When there are too many, lagging issues easily occur."

The game development staff in the department, seeing Lin Xuan arrive, all gathered around.

"Do you think the boss can solve this problem?"

They whispered among themselves.

"Of course he can. Our boss is an omnipotent being. What's a difficult problem for us is a piece of cake for the boss."

"I think it's quite uncertain. After all, this one is really tough."

"If you don't believe it, just wait and see."

This particular game developer had one hundred percent trust in Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan was his idol.

He believed his boss would definitely solve this problem quickly.

Lin Xuan didn't speak.

He just sat down in front of the computer.

He operated the computer for a bit and confirmed that the problem indeed existed.

He pondered for a minute.

Then his fingers began flying across the computer keyboard with a rapid clatter.
