Chapter 2 Chapter 2 The feeling of being rich
Si Yizhi discovered something was wrong yesterday.
As the boss of Ark Games, Si Yizhi is a typical person who is strict with himself and others.
The average working hours of ordinary employees in the company are 11 hours, while Si Yizhi himself works an astonishing 15 hours. And since the establishment of Ark Games, he has not been away from the company for more than five days a year. Under such high-intensity work, it is difficult for him to have a regular diet.
Coupled with various social activities and a complicated family background, he had a history of stomach problems at a young age. And as his net worth doubled, Si Yizhi's stomach problems became more and more serious.
There have been a lot of things going on during this period, and Si Yizhi's stomachache attacks are more frequent than his meals.
But just yesterday, Si Yizhi's regular stomachache did not occur, and during his daily stomachache, his mouth tasted sweet.
But these are not big problems. The problem is that he has awakened a mind-reading skill! And this mind-reading skill is only effective for one person.
Last month, the "real and fake young master incident" of the Wen family was exposed. Si Yizhi's childhood friend Wen Kefan was in an awkward situation as a fake young master who was taken away by mistake, and had to leave Beijing to seek other development opportunities.
Si Yizhi, thinking of their long-term friendship, decided to lend a hand to him and appointed him as the new project manager to be responsible for the development of the new male protagonist of "Love Reincarnation". This was considered as a gilding for him, so that he would not be compared too badly by the real young master of the Wen family who was found halfway in the future.
But two days ago, when he was about to announce this decision at the meeting, he suddenly heard an abrupt voice.
[Is the boss an NPC? He refreshes on time every time when it's almost time to get off work and issues tasks. ]
[I’m so annoyed. Why haven’t the protagonists come to fight the boss yet? The capitalists who work overtime in meetings will die a miserable death! ]
The employees in the conference room were as quiet as chickens. Apparently, no one except Si Yizhi himself heard these outrageous words.
This realization made Si Yizhi, who was always decisive, stutter twice on the spot, and he subconsciously looked for the source of the sound.
He looked around at the employees with a frown, but when his eyes swept over a young man in the first row, he heard the strange voice again.
[Why is this damn capitalist stuttering during a meeting? Damn it, why is he looking at me?! ]
Along with this voice, the other party shrank his neck and lowered his head.
Only then did Si Yizhi realize that the sound was made by this person. But he clearly didn't open his mouth!
As a master of engineering who graduated from the Technical University of Munich in Germany, Si Yizhi himself is a staunch materialist.
But everything before him clearly overturned the three perspectives he had established over the past twenty-eight years.
Si Yizhi could no longer care about personnel appointments. He hurriedly ended the meeting and rushed to the hospital for a detailed examination overnight. After confirming that he was fine, Si Yizhi spent half a night accepting this reality. After quickly retrieving the employee's information, Si Yizhi secretly observed for a long time, and his worldview was hit hard...
From the ramblings of the programmer named Shao Jiayan, Si Yizhi obtained a lot of information that shattered his three views.
It turns out that the world he lives in is actually a melodramatic novel.
And I am the vicious villain in this novel who is destined to die young? !
Although Si Yizhi knew that he was not a good person, he could barely be described as "vicious".
But judging from the other person's inner thoughts of hoping that he would die soon, he still felt quite uncomfortable.
Transferring the person to be his assistant was a decision he made after careful consideration. However, the other person suddenly started to have stomachaches when he was suffering from frequent stomach problems, which made Si Yizhi have some worse guesses.
Next week is the time when the new version of Love Cycle will be launched. The company has invested a lot of publicity funds for the launch of the new version and the new male protagonist.
When Miss Secretary Ai Si took the proposed invitation letter to Mr. Si for review, she found that Mr. Si was not working at his desk as usual, but walking around the office...
However, the secretary quickly adjusted her state, reported the work content efficiently, and left the office.
Si Yizhi said "hmm" faintly and continued walking around in his spacious office.
Half an hour later, Si Yizhi obtained a fairly accurate figure based on the distance between the two offices.
Twenty meters was the maximum distance at which he could hear Shao Jiayan's inner voice. And based on the content of the inner voice he overheard in the past two days, he, the villain, was probably not far from death~
Although Si Yizhi had absolute trust in the so-called protagonist, Wen Kefan, but as it concerned his own safety, he decisively called the HR department and asked them to "reissue Wen Kefan's offer and adjust his position."
Shao Jiayan’s new position is assistant to the president (life assistant).
Besides Si Yizhi, the workaholic, he already has six assistants. These six seniors work in three shifts and are on call. Logically, they don't need to find additional assistants. Besides, Shao Jiayan, who was a programmer, knows nothing about the work of a general assistant. But Ai Si told him that he is different from the other six assistants.
"They are all Mr. Si's work assistants, and their job responsibilities are different from yours," Ai Si explained.
After reading the job responsibilities and specific work content, Shao Jiayan actually had a clear idea in his mind. His work content does not directly contact the company's operations, nor does it involve any business content. He is just a simple life assistant. In other words, he is a male nanny who serves the company's CEO.
Shao Jiayan was in a complicated mood. "Sister Ai Si, I have never done this job before. I heard that Mr. Si has never hired a life assistant. Why does he suddenly want a life assistant?"
"Maybe Mr. Si has taken a fancy to you?" Although Ai Si looks delicate and weak, she can speak with great power as soon as she opens her mouth.
Shao Jiayan was almost frightened by her and fell off the stool, "Sister! My dear sister, you can't talk nonsense!"
He quickly looked back and found that other colleagues were busy with their work and no one was paying attention to what was happening here. He lowered his voice and said, "How could Mr. Si be interested in me~"
Although Shao Jiayan is very confident about his face, he was very popular with men and women when he was in college. However, Shao Jiayan, who has read the original novel, knows very well that the villain Boss, that sinister and cunning guy, is fighting for power and profit throughout the novel, and there is no love line at all.
Seeing his big reaction, Ai Si laughed, "Sorry, I've read too many stand-in novels recently, don't take it to heart. But you do look a bit like Mr. Si's white moonlight."
Shao Jiayan felt a little relieved after hearing her say this.
But what Ai Si said next made him nervous again. "But you do look a bit like our company's new client, the young master of the Wen family... So, what's going on between you and Mr. Si? I've been working with him for almost five years, and he didn't even want a secretary before. How come he suddenly transferred you, a grassroots programmer, to the position of life assistant?"
Ai Si did not work her way up from a grassroots secretary to a senior secretary. She herself came from a wealthy family in Beijing and knew more about Si Yizhi's private affairs than most people.
When President Si, who had always kept public and private affairs separate, suddenly decided to disregard the company's charter and hire Wen Kefan, who did not meet the qualifications in any way, as the person in charge of an important project, this group of "the emperor's close ministers" discussed it privately and suspected that President Si was taking advantage of the situation to keep the fake young master in distress.
But for some reason, when it came to the regular meeting to announce this personnel change, President Si suddenly changed his mind.
When the usually capable CEO Si got stuck in the meeting that day, Ai Si keenly noticed that CEO Si's eyes frequently fell on a handsome male employee in the front row of the meeting room. Two days later, CEO Si asked him to personally deliver stomach medicine to the male employee, and asked the human resources director to make personnel changes for him, constantly recruiting people to be his personal assistants.
After seeing the man's face clearly, the mind of the secretary who came from a family with connections and had been poisoned by the romance novels about domineering bosses suddenly became clear.
He was beeping like crazy in his mind [What? The protagonist is the villain's mistress?! I also look like the protagonist? What the hell~].
Little did he know that Shao Jiayan was so surprised that he had turned into a screaming chicken in his heart, which had seriously affected Si Yizhi's office opposite.
Si Yizhi was almost laughing at the two of them. He and Wen Kefan were only childhood friends, but how come Ai Si said he was her lover? If it weren't for her special background as a secretary, a secretary who ruined her reputation everywhere should have been fired long ago!
Shao Jiayan thought he had triggered a hidden plot and was about to ask in detail when Ai Si was called away by President Si again.
When Ai Si went to the president's office to hand in documents, the president deducted all performance points for the month on the grounds that he stepped into the office with his left foot first.
However, Shao Jiayan was really upset after hearing the news. He couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his cheek.
He is good-looking and has been the most beautiful child in the orphanage since he was young, which is why he has been adopted again and again. The villain Boss's moral standards are worrying. Is it really because of luck that he was transferred to the position of general assistant?
In the office, Shao Jiayan was lost in thought while holding the SOP.
Little did he know that what he was thinking was clearly heard by someone in the opposite office. No matter how good the sound insulation and office decoration were, it couldn't stop someone from whispering about the boss in his heart. Si Yizhi, who couldn't stand it any longer, called his new assistant and said, "Come to my office."
On the first day of working as a life assistant, Shao Jiayan was called to the boss' office before he had time to finish reading the job SOP.
He knocked on the heavy red oak door nervously, then walked in carefully.
"Mr. Si, are you looking for me?" Shao Jiayan tried hard to recall the behavior of the people around Mr. Si and acted respectfully.
Si Yizhi put down the documents in his hand, said "hmm", and decided to show his hand.
If he doesn't reveal his cards, the other party will be able to come up with his own strategy and think that he was transferred because of his face!
Si Yizhi picked up the coffee cup beside him and took a sip. As he swallowed, Shao Jiayan also swallowed his saliva and finally realized that something was wrong.
"Is it bitter?" the man asked coldly.
"It's bitter." Shao Jiayan answered dejectedly.
Then the other person smiled, but his smile was filled with some unfriendly sarcasm. "So can you explain why you find my coffee bitter? Why do you get stomachaches when I have a stomachache?"
Shao Jiayan really couldn't have imagined that when the villain Boss drank coffee, his mouth was full of bitterness~
Shao Jiayan was torn apart, Shao Jiayan collapsed! Did he empathize with the villain? !
But on second thought, there seems to be another explanation that can explain it...
But he couldn't say to Si Yizhi: The world you live in is a novel, and I'm an unlucky guy who died suddenly and traveled through the book. I don't want to be a cannon fodder, I want to experience the feeling of a rich person, so I made a wish to the god of time travel, Xia Jier, while eating instant noodles, and then I can really experience the feeling of a rich person like you, right~?
However, in front of the villain, Shao Jiayan didn't dare to tell the truth. He just cried out that he was wronged, "Boss Si, this is unfair! I really don't know what's going on!"
Even though Shao Jiayan cried out that he was innocent, he was actually cursing the God of Time Travel in his heart.
[Fuck, it’s fine that I’ve become a passerby in a book, but I’m really crazy that my wish can come true even if I make a wish with a ramen fork! If I had known, I would have just made a wish to win the first prize in the lottery~]
[Wow~ I want to experience the feeling of being rich, but this is not the feeling I want! ! ! ]
Considering the stomach pain he had suddenly experienced in the past two days, and the villain boss' sudden visit to his house to give him stomach medicine, Shao Jiayan had nothing to understand.
However, in front of the rich enemy opposite him, he did not dare to tell the truth.
[It's over, it's over. If the villain knew that I made a blind wish and that's what caused this, would he tie me up and take me abroad to dissect me for research? Woohoo, is it too late for me to make a new wish now? ]
Because the other party's mind was too active, Si Yizhi, who had learned the truth through other channels, had the urge to roll his eyes for the first time in his life. Looking at the other party's face that looked like he had lost all hope and was about to break down, he somewhat blamed the other party for making random wishes, while at the same time quickly thinking about the information he had obtained from the other party's mind.
Although he knew that he and Si Yiran would have to fight in the near future, he knew from the information revealed by the man in front of him that he was destined to lose, and it also involved his closest friend Wen Kefan... To be honest, Si Yizhi found it difficult to accept for a while. This also made him think that he must keep this person by his side.
So he took a deep breath and put on an expression that he thought was quite kind.
"Don't tell anyone about this empathy for now. Just stay by my side and work honestly for the time being, and then we'll figure out if there's a solution."
Seeing that the villain was so easy to talk to, Shao Jiayan was relieved.
After he nodded honestly, the other party was not polite and pointed to a thick pile of documents on the table.
"Since you've been transferred, you have to do your job well. From tomorrow on, you will be responsible for daily schedule arrangements and handover matters."
The thick stack of reference materials made it almost impossible for the thin Shao Jiayan to hold it!
After struggling to come out of the CEO's office, Shao Jiayan wanted to cry but had no tears. How long would he have to work overtime to finish reading so much information?
