Chapter 237 The Behavior of a Ruthless Capitalist
Heavy floor-length curtains blocked out the sunlight from the glass windows.
In the dimly lit office, documents on the large desk were piled up on both sides, leaving a large empty space in the middle.
Lu Fengqing sat up, her head tilted back slightly, staring unfocused at the light above. She wondered what was going on. Wasn't she supposed to be up here for a nap? Why…
Before Lu Fengqing could think any further, the thoughts that had just surfaced in her mind were immediately shattered.
The metal buckle tapped against the edge of the desk, producing a dull yet crisp sound that mingled with the clinking of jewelry, creating a symphony.
The office is a good place. Just one door separates the employees who have finished lunch and come up to rest before continuing to work in the afternoon from the employees who are secretly excited.
After an unknown amount of time, the noise in the office finally subsided.
Gu Suixing squinted, his face full of satisfaction, his chin resting on Lu Fengqing's shoulder, his right hand still wandering over her fair and smooth thigh.
Lu Fengqing's red lips parted slightly as she breathed heavily. After calming down a bit, she patted his shoulder and said, "Go away."
Gu Suixing: "The behavior of a heartless capitalist, using and discarding people?"
Lu Fengqing was too lazy to argue with him about who was "using" whom. She kicked her legs and said, "Don't wrinkle my skirt."
He's not as important as a dress? Gu Suixing chuckled, his hand sliding down to grasp her ankle, which he then kissed. "Next time, I'll buy you a gold anklet."
Lu Fengqing: "...Pervert."
Gu Suixing smiled and let go of her.
After tidying herself up, Lu Fengqing picked up her high heels and put them on, casually asking, "What are we doing this afternoon?"
Gu Suixing straightened his shirt. "I've invited a few business partners over. Find something to have fun on your own, and we'll pick up Rui Rui together when you're done."
Lu Fengqing: "What's so funny about your company?"
The biggest fun of dealing with those flashy, cheap women is gone; we can't just let her wander around aimlessly.
Gu Suixing glanced at her and said, "If you're really bored, go to the development department and meet those 'big shots' I hired at high salaries."
Lu Fengqing: "..."
I'm not interested.
Despite saying that, Lu Fengqing still went.
The "tour guide" is still Assistant Fang.
Lu Fengqing's sudden appearance in the development department startled everyone there.
The news about Secretary Cui has spread throughout the company's various groups. Everyone in the development department is terrified of accidentally displeasing the boss and getting fired. They're all on edge, practically wearing the words "work hard" on their foreheads.
Lu Fengqing walked past these people, her gaze sweeping over the computer screens in front of them one by one.
A young man with a bald head, sitting against the wall, was shaking incessantly.
The silver-haired young man next to him glanced at him, and before the proprietress came over, he quickly opened a chat software on the computer and sent a message to his friend next door.
[Xijidan: What are you shaking for?]
[Bald Little Tiger: Urgent need to pee]
[Xijidan: ...]
Just as the silver-haired young man was about to reply, he caught a glimpse of the landlady approaching and quickly closed the chat app.
Sure enough, the proprietress stopped behind his friend.
Lu Fengqing asked, "Cold?"
Assistant Fang and Supervisor Xue, who were chatting, turned around and looked over when they heard the noise.
The bald boy was so scared that he didn't dare to look the proprietress in the eye, and said with a mournful face, "No, I'm not cold."
Lu Fengqing: "Then why are you shaking?"
After holding it in for a long time, the bald guy finally managed to say, "Bladder, I feel like throwing up."
Lu Fengqing: "..."
Several colleagues sitting around the bald man almost burst out laughing.
Lu Fengqing stepped aside, "Go quickly."
The bald man couldn't stand it for a second longer. He immediately stood up, barely suppressing the urge to cover his crotch, and ran to the bathroom like a whirlwind.
The development department fell silent again.
Lu Fengqing didn't leave; she sat down directly in the little bald man's seat.
The silver-haired young man tensed up, so frightened he almost trembled.
Oh no, the proprietress sat down next to him.
He was planning to use his year-end bonus to buy an apartment and bring his elderly mother and father from the countryside to live with him; he couldn't afford to get fired at this time.
But here's the problem: how can he get the landlady to not notice him?
The silver-haired young man suddenly regretted dyeing his hair silver.
Lu Fengqing, unaware of the silver-haired young man's inner thoughts, stared at the code in front of her.
That bald guy is probably looking for bugs.
When the code is messy, finding bugs in it is sometimes more troublesome than rewriting it.
Lu Fengqing immediately spotted two obvious bugs.
However, every programmer has their own coding habits, so Lu Fengqing didn't touch the bald guy's things without permission. She turned her head to look at the silver-haired young man and asked, "Is there something on my face?"
Silver-haired young man: "No, no."
Lu Fengqing glanced at his screen, "Second-level heading font size 2333?"
Silver-haired young man: "..."
The silver-haired young man silently deleted the two extra 3s he had accidentally typed while he was busy mocking the bald guy.
Although the proprietress didn't say it explicitly, the silver-haired young man still felt that his dignity as the strongest (crossed out) hacker (past tense) had been severely crushed and rubbed into the ground.
What a basic mistake! Even a primary school student learning programming could see it...
Knowing that she would disturb other people's work if she stayed there, Lu Fengqing did not linger.
When the bald guy returned, he left with Assistant Fang.
The bald man watched the proprietress walk away, muttering with lingering fear, "I was so scared I almost peed my pants."
Silver-haired young man: "Why didn't you pee?"
The bald man twisted his clothes sheepishly, "How embarrassing to wet my pants in front of such a beautiful woman."
The silver-haired young man retorted, "Would you be able to urinate if it were an old, faded auntie?"
The bald man thought about it seriously for a moment, then said, "It's hard to say."
Silver-haired young man: "..."
The bald man suddenly sighed, "Speaking of which, my brother hasn't contacted us in a long time."
Silver-haired young man: "Which brother are you referring to?"
The bald guy glared at him, "I only have one brother. My boss, Brother N."
After hearing what the bald guy said, the silver-haired young man realized that they had indeed not been in contact for some time.
The last time we contacted each other was the last time.
He and the bald guy left N-Ge's group one after the other and haven't been in contact since.
The bald boy said worriedly, "I hope my brother isn't angry with us."
The silver-haired young man thought, "It's not that bad."

Lu Fengqing came out of the development department and, having nothing to do, decided to go downstairs for a cup of coffee.
Assistant Fang's task today is to stay close to the future boss's wife, ostensibly as a "tour guide," but actually to keep an eye on the boss's mobile jewelry display case to prevent it from being pried open or any "unruly" incidents from happening inside.
As soon as the two of them went down to the recreation area, they saw Secretary Cui standing on the corridor with red eyes, holding a cardboard box.
Secretary Cui seemed to have noticed them as well, and turned to look at them.
