"With so many people in The Matrix, you can name them all?"

She's been in The Matrix for so long, and there are some people she's never even seen, like that Xiao Na from earlier, let alone know her name.

Nan Chen waved his hand, "With so many people and so many branches in The Matrix, if I could recognize them all, I'd be a god."

Although he is the master of The Matrix, he is not a key figure in the annual recruitment process. He is a grassroots member of The Matrix and is not someone you usually come into contact with.

Upon hearing this, the girl nodded.

That's the same principle.

"What about that girl from earlier..."

Speaking of this, Nan Chen sighed, and as if he had thought of something, he sighed again, his face showing a hint of disappointment.

"I know her name because I personally brought Xiao Na back. I once saved her life on a business trip, but she has no talent for hacking and even slacked off afterwards, so she's not sitting in the main office like you and Su Chen."

He paused, a helpless smile playing on his lips.

"And now we can only focus on logistics."

Saving her life was already a great favor, but if she didn't try her best afterwards, there would be no way to succeed.

Hearing this, Qi Jiu finally understood, but her expression turned ugly. "I understand."

There is an old Chinese saying, "A drop of water in need is repaid with a spring of water in return." This is a principle that everyone should understand, but it seems that Xiao Na doesn't quite grasp it.

"Old man, if you're busy, go ahead and do your thing. Don't worry about me."

Nan Chen stayed with her without complaint, but it was unacceptable that he had caused everyone to lose two hours of work. Besides, he was the owner of this place.

While the beginning is important, life must go on.

Besides, with her here, she can give Chuchu a perfect explanation no matter what.

After listening, Nan Chu's expression changed slightly. Finally, she met Qi Jiu's eyes and obediently turned and left.

In an instant, Qi Jiu was left alone in the room. She looked at the aromatherapy on the shelf with a scrutinizing gaze.

He immediately stepped forward, grabbed the incense burner, and opened the door to throw it out. However, he did not expect to run into Xiao Na, who was returning with a rag. When he saw what Xiao Na was holding, his expression changed drastically.

"Miss! Miss, what are you going to do..." Xiao Na looked at the thing in the girl's hand, pursed her lips, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

However, Qi Jiu noticed this slight change. She looked at Xiao Na, then at the rag in her hand, her expression unchanged.

"Of course we should throw this incense out. Her room doesn't need these things. Besides, Nan Chu doesn't like incense."

I especially dislike air fresheners that should be placed in the bathroom.

As she spoke, she raised her hand and handed over the aromatherapy diffuser, her meaning quite clear.

Xiao Na looked down at the aromatherapy diffuser, pursed her lips, and didn't take it immediately. Instead, she looked up and smiled. "But Miss, if we don't use the aromatherapy diffuser, Miss Nan Chu's room will smell."

“I understand, so I will naturally find the source and throw it away!”

Qi Jiu finally lost patience with arguing with her. The smile on her lips slowly disappeared, and her voice carried an air of unyielding authority.

Even though Xiaona was extremely unwilling, she had no choice but to accept the aromatherapy, but the worry on her face did not diminish.

"I understand. If you need anything, just call me."

With that, he turned and left.

Qi Jiu watched her somewhat uneasy back view, narrowed her eyes slightly, then turned around and went back to the room, immediately opening the window.

A slight chill crept into the room, dispelling the somewhat eerie fragrance. In no time, the air felt fresh.

But just as he was about to close the window, he paused, his eyes fixed on something as if he had seen something.

She stared at the small gap between the table and the bookshelf, paused for a moment, and then immediately closed the window.

The floor was spotless; the desk, the floor, and the bookshelves were all immaculate. Only the lower half of the desk showed some color difference.

Qi Jiu slowly squatted down, looking at the smoky spot on the desk. Her fingers unconsciously began to touch it, and a certain certainty appeared in her eyes.

"Now that's a weakness, isn't it?"

This desk is Nan Chu's favorite, so it's impossible for something like this to exist here. Nan Chen dotes on Nan Chu, and he would never allow such a flaw in the foundation of this desk.

This room is usually deserted, so the area under the desk that's been smoked is suspicious.

Thinking about it, she began to count the books on the bookshelf. She remembered everything in the room and knew the number of every book.

As time passed, Qi Jiu discovered that nothing in the room was missing. So what exactly had been burned?

Suddenly, as if she had just remembered something, she opened the door to the room, looked at the person who had returned and was waiting, and smiled.

"Your name is Xiaona, right?"

"Yes, miss."

Looking at her fairly pretty face, Qi Jiu felt a little sorry for her.

She used to work in the logistics department, but now she can only be a cleaning maid. Does she really have no complaints about this change in status? Now it seems that there must be some hidden reasons.

"Come in, I have something to ask you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Na followed her in, looking very reserved.

For some reason, it would have been fine if Nan Chen had been here earlier, but now that he's facing Qi Jiu alone, he's extremely nervous.

The girl plopped down at the desk, randomly picked up a book from the side, and started reading. "How often do you clean this room?"

“I come every three days because I know Mr. Nan Chen always comes, so I clean more frequently. And I also understand that you care a lot about this room.”

Upon hearing this, Qi Jiu nodded, her gaze never leaving the book in her hands.

"Has anything unusual happened recently?"

Xiao Na was taken aback, then shook her head. Only when she realized that Qi Jiu wouldn't see her shaking her head did she speak.

"No, everything is normal."

"Everything's normal?" The girl chuckled. "Are you sure? If you answer like that, I won't let you off easily if you don't give me satisfactory answers to my next questions."

She placed the book face down on the table and looked at her sideways.

There was no ripple in his dark eyes; in fact, they held a hint of coldness.

Seeing this, Xiao Na subconsciously pursed her lips, lowered her head, and looked conflicted where no one could see her.
