Chapter 72: Reality 11

An hour later, the helicopter landed on the roof of the Fanxing Group.

Xu Xinghe came to pick up Su Qingyun in person.

After parting at the Linhu Village copy, Su Qingyun didn't know whether Xu Xinghe was alive or dead. If Ye Jian hadn't revealed the reason for the letter of appointment, Su Qingyun might have continued to blame herself.

"Mr. Xu." Seeing Xu Xinghe again, Su Qingyun was a little more polite.

Xu Xinghe was still as gentle and elegant as ever. He smiled at Su Qingyun and reached out his hand to help her.

Su Qingyun rejected him with her actions and jumped off the helicopter.

"You're still as agile as ever."

Su Qingyun smiled.

Walk down one floor from the roof and you will reach the top floor of Fanxing Group, where the chairman is.

Xu Xinghe whispered to Su Qingyun, "The chairman has a video conference that hasn't ended yet. Let's go to the reception room and wait."

The reception room is really a hall. There is only a set of sofas in the space of two or three hundred square meters, and there are works of art all around.

It doesn't feel like a meeting place, but more like a museum lounge.

Su Qingyun sat on the sofa with her cross-body bag on her back, looking around curiously.

Xu Xinghe poured tea for Su Qingyun. Seeing that she was still carrying the messenger bag from the dungeon, he asked, "You seem to like this bag very much."

Su Qingyun looked down at the bag. The bag was given to her by her best friend Mo Xiaoqi after she learned that she was going to enter a strange world. She said that the bag was made of sturdy material and could hold a lot of things, so it would definitely be very useful in the strange world.

It turns out that it is really useful and very convenient to take things.

"Yeah, I like it very much." Su Qingyun replied.

"How have you been lately?" Xu Xinghe also poured himself a cup of tea.

"Not bad." Su Qingyun took a sip of tea. She was not very willing to talk to Xu Xinghe about her recent situation.

In the copy, she actually didn't trust Ye Jian, but when she returned to the real world, she inexplicably felt that Ye Jian was more trustworthy than Xu Xinghe.

Maybe it’s because Ye Jian said he was an unemployed vagrant, and Xu Xinghe is an executive of Fanxing Group, so there is a sense of distance between them.

"How did he get out later?" Su Qingyun asked Xu Xinghe.

"The police found me while searching the forest. I took them to the Chuiling Temple and rescued the Forest Fairy."

Su Qingyun nodded. She didn't want to know, she just wanted to change the subject.

"About the letter of appointment..."

"About the letter of appointment..."

The two people said in unison.

Xu Xinghe asked Su Qingyun to speak first.

"What's the matter with the letter of appointment? I don't think I have submitted my resume to your company." Su Qingyun asked.

Xu Xinghe smiled and replied, "Well, when I submitted the mission, I thought of the investigation report you told me about. I was confused as to why our Fanxing Group's name would appear in such a strange dungeon. Also, I was temporarily selected to enter the Linhu Village dungeon. I wondered if our Fanxing Group's research and development had been discovered by the strange world. To better understand the situation, I wrote an analysis report for you and submitted it to the company."

"Finally..." Xu Xinghe spread his hands, "There was an additional email to the Human Resources Department in our chairman's mailbox."

"The email hiring me as a consultant?"

"Yes."

"But I received the offer letter in a fantasy world."

"This is why our chairman wants to see you today. He suspects that the system used by our Star Group is being manipulated by a strange world."

"Like a hacker?"

"But you also manipulate the weird world." The company has started to collect ghost money and developed auxiliary tools to pass the level.

"We're not manipulating," Xu Xinghe denied. "We're resisting. The strangeness descends upon us, dragging us into one copy after another, setting rules for us to follow. Why should we obey? That's not the world we were meant to be in."

"That's not what you told me in the dungeon."

"You also said it was in a dungeon. It was a strangely created world."

Yes, he has a point.

"But...it's no use for your chairman to contact me. I'm not a computer expert and I don't understand computer hacking. I can't help you with the fact that your chairman's computer sent an email to the Human Resources Department."

Su Qingyun stood up and tried to leave. Xu Xinghe also stood up and said, "You don't have to meet me if you don't want to, but we won't regret hiring you as a consultant."

"You can regret it now," Su Qingyun said, "I don't need this job."

"I know, but our Star Group needs you as a consultant."

"Mr. Xu, don't force yourself."

"Without a trace of reluctance." Xu Xinghe beckoned his finger, and a secretary holding a folder walked in.

She handed the folder to Xu Xinghe.

"This is the contract. Once you sign it, you will be a member of our Star Group."

Although Su Qingyun had never worked before, she knew that the letter of appointment should be issued after the contract was signed. Why did Xu Xinghe ask her to sign it now? She deliberately asked, "Why didn't the strange person who controlled all this sign a copy for me?"

Xu Xinghe, "Just like I said, the Starry Group is not powerful enough to control the Weird World, and Weird World is not powerful enough to imitate your handwriting and forge a contract."

Su Qingyun pushed the contract aside and expressed her intention, "I can be a consultant for your Fanxing Group, but I won't sign the contract. As for my salary, it will be based on performance. If you have any questions, please ask me and give me a price. I will accept it if I think it is suitable. After accepting the order, I will tell you everything I know."

Xu Xinghe didn't say anything and seemed to be thinking.

Finally he agreed, "Okay, let's do as you say."

He closed the folder, looked at the time on his wrist, and asked his secretary, "Is the chairman's meeting over?"

The secretary shook her head.

Su Qingyun felt that the chairman might not be in a meeting.

Perhaps, Fanxing Group may not have a chairman as Xu Xinghe mentioned.

"Since the chairman is busy with official business, I won't wait any longer." Su Qingyun stood up and after thinking for a while, she took out three paper money for the dead from her bag.

"This is your fee for seeing the doctor. Here you go."

"How did you bring it out?"

"I found some connections."

"Since you found the connection, these are yours. Take them."

Su Qingyun took one back and said, "I'll just take some hard work money, and I'll still give you yours. We're even."

After saying that, she adjusted her messenger bag and prepared to leave.

Xu Xinghe raised his wrist to check the time again, "Su Qingyun, want to have dinner together?"

"No."

"You're going back alone?"

Su Qingyun stopped and said, yes, she came here by helicopter, and it would take more than four hours to go back by the fastest bullet train.

She has only had one cup of coffee since she left home this morning.

"Then let's have a meal."

Xu Xinghe smiled, not to refuse, but seemed happy.
