Having left the Sea of the Dead, Linna slowly opened her eyes.
He had fallen asleep on the sofa in the Night Watchman's drawing room.
I got up, yawned lazily, and was about to stretch.
Suddenly, with a loud "bang," a figure fell from the sky and landed heavily on the coffee table in front of him!
The expensive spirit wood coffee table was smashed to pieces!
Linnaeus: (⊙?⊙)
What...what's going on??
I just took a nap, what happened...? Did some monsters invade the Night Watch headquarters??
Lin Nai looked completely bewildered.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that the person who had been lying on the coffee table in front of him was none other than Yang Xiaochuan, a member of the Night Watch who was with Tang Hongshan?
Yang Xiaochuan: "(ヾ????) Spare...spare me......"
A captivating yet cold voice drifted out: "So? Do you still want to watch?"
Night fell, her eyes bloodshot, as she spoke with a playful air, yet her gaze held a chilling depth.
Yang Xiaochuan, with a mournful face, said, "Sister Wan'er, I was wrong, I just misspoke..."
Night squinted: "I don't think we're that close. What did you call me?"
Yang Xiaochuan quickly changed his tune, saying, "Sister Ye! Your Highness Ye! Fairy Ye, I was wrong, so wrong. I didn't mean to offend you..."
"Yu Xi, Yu Xi, please put in a good word for me!"
Lin Yuxi crossed her arms, leaned to one side with a stern face, and curled her lips expressionlessly: "You deserve it."
At night, she raised her hand, her slender fingers grasping at the air.
Yang Xiaochuan felt as if he had been grabbed by an invisible hand, lifted into the air, and then slammed against the wall!
Another large dent was smashed into the wall of the reception room...
Lin Nai stared blankly for a long time, not understanding what was going on. She tilted her head and asked with a strange look, "What... what's going on?"
How come he was woken up after only sleeping for a short while?
Lin Yuxi pouted, sat down next to him, and said, "You were asleep just now, and some idiot kept staring at Wan'er's legs, and he was so stunned that he blurted out, 'So white.'"
Linnaeus: "..."
Yang Xiaochuan said, looking aggrieved, "I...I was just taking a look, I didn't do anything..."
"Is that so?" Night's blood-red eyes narrowed. "You think I don't know that you were so attentive to me just now, serving me tea, water, and coffee, because you wanted to take the opportunity to secretly touch my little hand?"
Yang Xiaochuan: "......"
Having learned the reason, Lin Nai looked at Yang Xiaochuan with some sympathy. It seemed that this guy had triggered Ye Yuan'er's defense mechanism, which was why he released this red-eyed female demon.
"I know I was wrong..." Yang Xiaochuan felt like crying.
He knew Lin Yuxi would definitely not save him, so he pitifully turned to Lin Nai with pleading eyes: "Lin Nai, you...you help me plead with Sister Wan'er...oh no, no, please help me beg His Highness Ye for mercy, I really didn't mean to..."
Linnaeus shrugged, indicating that he couldn't help her.
How could he possibly persuade this female demon?
However, this is ultimately the Night's Watch headquarters, and it's not a good idea to cause trouble on their territory.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Nai still tried to say, "Never mind, Wan'er, you've already beaten him up, put him down."
Unexpectedly, Ye Wan'er smiled and said, "Alright, for Lin Nai's sake, I'll let you off this time." As she spoke, she loosened her grip.
Yang Xiaochuan then slid down the wall and landed on his bottom on the ground.
Night patted the dust off her hands, sat back down next to Lin Nai, and even winked at him playfully.
Lin Nai said in a low voice, "Can't you be a little more restrained in someone else's territory?"
Nightfall said with a wronged look, "But it makes me uncomfortable to be stared at by anyone other than you~"
Lin Nai was speechless, but he knew that Ye Ye'er was deliberately teasing him when she said that, so he didn't take it to heart.
At this moment, Tang Hongshan returned. Seeing the state of the reception room, he gaped, dumbfounded: "What...what's going on? An earthquake??"
Nightly, she said with a grin, "It's nothing, it's nothing. We were just bored while waiting, so we played a little ping-pong game." Then, she turned to Yang Xiaochuan, "Right, that little brother over there?"
Hearing Ye Wan'er's voice, Yang Xiaochuan shuddered and forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace: "Yes...yes...Captain Tang, we were just playing a game."
"..." Tang Hongshan gave Ye Wan'er a complicated look.
Just like the night in the file, he's no pushover...
"Linnai, the director has agreed to your conditions."
Tang Hongshan handed a contract to Lin Nai: "Not only that, he also said that he was willing to give the gene company double the signing fee they would have given you."
Lin Nai was slightly taken aback.
"I don't think I have that requirement."
"Yes, the director brought it up himself."
Linnaeus fell silent.
He could probably understand what the Night Watchman Chief of Yecheng meant.
The extra signing fee is basically a way to win people's hearts.
Giving voluntarily and giving passively are two completely different things.
For leaders, sometimes just a few words of encouragement and affirmation are enough to move a subordinate to work wholeheartedly for them for a long time.
In schools, many teachers also use this method, occasionally praising a student a few more times. Even if that student is originally lazy to study, they will feel embarrassed not to study hard because of the teacher's words. Of course, this method varies from person to person; some people are affected by it, while others are not.
It seems that this bureau chief is not the kind of leader who is harsh and rigid, but rather one who knows how to use both kindness and strictness and is very good at employing people.
Although Lin Nai had not yet met the bureau chief, he had basically guessed what kind of person the bureau chief was.
“Once you sign here, you’ll be a member of our Night Watch.” Tang Hongshan took out a pen and handed it to him.
Lin Nai took the pen and, without much hesitation, signed his name on it.
"Welcome, we're teammates now." Tang Hongshan smiled and shook hands with Lin Nai. "Come with me, I'll take you to bind your account to the system first."
Lin Yuxi stood up with a grin: "I'm going too!"
Tang Hongshan nodded, then said to Yang Xiaochuan, "Xiaochuan, go downstairs to the garage and bring up the data box for me. I forgot to leave it in the car."
Yang Xiaochuan said helplessly, "Captain Tang, I'm still injured."
Tang Hongshan glanced at him and said, "Alright, it's just a little injury. You're not a little girl."
Although Ye'er had just slapped Yang Xiaochuan around like a ping-pong ball, she had actually been very careful and hadn't hit him too hard. As a Level 4 superhuman, Yang Xiaochuan's physique was naturally different from that of ordinary people.
