Chapter 126 Nightmare This is too outrageous
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Ye Xuan finally received a message.
He excitedly clicked on the little red dot on his phone's desktop, but was disappointed to find that it was a notification that a coupon was about to expire.
Just when he was so bored that he kept turning his phone on and off, someone knocked on the office door.
"Come in!" He didn't notice how excited his tone was and how loud his words were.
Sister Lin opened the door and stood outside to greet him: "Xiao Xuan, come to the meeting."
The lazy master who usually hated meetings did not behave this time and walked to the door in two steps: "I'm coming!"
Sister Lin felt somewhat confused when she saw this scene. She had no idea what kind of anxiety test the other party had just gone through.
Only after sitting down in the conference room did Ye Xuan feel like he was alive again.
The company must not have given up on him!
He was worried that as this incident progressed, You Meng would abandon him in order to protect herself.
Although the situation is not serious now, he is still anxious about the loan.
Losing this job was a disaster he could not imagine.
He found his own value in the job of a real-life NPC, and now he may be unable to leave this job that he once disliked.
Ye Xuan, who thought he might be abandoned, suddenly turned into a pitiful little puppy with tearful eyes, staring with wide eyes in the hope that he could stay.
I learned this from Xiaoxue.
However, this trick was not so effective when used by him.
Everyone was seriously discussing the possible consequences of this incident, and no one noticed his expression at all.
Ye Xuan, who tried hard to put on a pleading face, put away his pretending to be pitiful expression.
You ignore him, yet you ask him to come to the meeting. Do you think he's a mascot?
Thinking back to when he arrived at Youmeng, although the company's business was booming, it also encountered a lot of troubles. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
But as they say, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand, so just consider it as a blessing in disguise.
Ye Xuan held his chin with his hand, looking at the leaders who were engaged in a heated discussion. The anxiety in his heart was relieved a lot, but fatigue resurfaced.
I feel bored when I have nothing to do, and I feel bored when I have nothing to do. This job is really...
He shook his head, trying to shake off the sleepiness that was entangling him.
Still fun in the game.
He missed his daily work in the game very much, even though he had just come out of "Dream Game" unhappily a few hours ago.
In fact, the meeting would go on as usual even without him, but the leaders felt it was not good to "exclude" the person involved.
This can also be regarded as a kind of humanistic care of their company.
As Ye Xuan listened, he could not resist the urge to sleep, and unknowingly he adopted a posture similar to that of taking a nap in class at school, pretending to be attending the meeting but actually falling asleep.
＊
When someone grabbed his collar and shook him awake, Ye Xing was in a completely sleepy state.
Who is he and where is he?
The confused young man was shocked when he saw the masked man in front of him with ill intentions.
Did he come across a crime scene?
And it’s the kind that only appears on the screen and the big screen!
The man in front of him said to him viciously: "Are you the real NPC?"
The other party's strange tone made him feel uncomfortable, but he nodded subconsciously in his sleepy state.
"That's good," the other man lifted him onto his shoulder, "I'm going to catch you!"
Ye Xing thought, has he been kidnapped again?
Hey, why is it “again”?
He was so obsessed with this that he didn't notice that he didn't feel any discomfort when he was carried on someone's shoulders and had the hard bone pressed against his abdomen. It was as if he had lost his sense of pain.
But he was too dazed to process the information.
After being taken away by the mysterious masked man, a strange note was left in the meeting room.
Why is it abrupt? The reason is very simple——
The note was tied to an arrow and was not something that should be here at all.
If someone were to open the note and read it now, they would definitely find a few big words written on it: Redeem it with "Dream Travel".
Ye Xing, who was kidnapped, didn't know why the other party wanted to get the game. After all, kidnapping a game company employee to demand the game was too outrageous.
It wasn't long before he was taken to a, uh, playground.
Yes, an amusement park, the kind that’s perfect for chases and battle royales.
Looking at the environment in front of him, he felt a little uneasy.
This kind of map seems to appear in some slightly horror stories.
The masked man threw him into one of the Ferris wheel's rooms and ran away without revealing any further information.
Ye Xuan helplessly stared at the tightly closed transparent door and the ground that was getting farther and farther away from him, feeling that this scene was truly magical.
He was trapped on the Ferris wheel.
How could I have thought of this! There was no defense at all!
Alas, can we still pray that someone will come and save him?
He took out his cell phone to call the police, but the phone was out of battery and turned off.
Is it such an unlucky thing?
With no other options left, he sat down on the Ferris wheel in frustration.
At least the scenery is nice.
He looked down and found that the Ferris wheel was hanging over a crater.
What is going on? !
Are you sure this is a Ferris wheel, not the Ferris wheel-shaped platter at the hot pot restaurant? !
The current situation did not allow him to think too much, because the volcano looked like it was about to erupt.
Ye Xuan struggled to escape, but he couldn't open the seemingly fragile door. He could only watch himself being gradually swallowed by the magma.
However, this lava is not hot at all, and it has the aroma of chocolate mixed with strawberry jam.
He couldn't help but open his mouth and take a sip - it tasted just like it smelled!
So, it’s actually the chocolate lava that’s in the ice cream fondue?
Isn’t it still hotpot?
Ye Xing, who was very dissatisfied with being "sucked" into the "hot pot", turned his grief and anger into appetite and ate a lot of strawberry chocolate sauce.
Sweet foods are really helpful in improving your mood.
After taking a few big bites, he calmed down.
This kind of thing could never happen in real life, right?
Unless, this isn't reality.
The brain, replenished with sugar, starts to work.
He immediately realized the crux of the problem.
It was true that I was dozing off in the conference room before waking up.
When he was awakened by the masked man, the location and events were correct, but the subsequent developments were wrong.
This is a dream.
It should be a dream in the usual sense.
Ye Xuan thought about it. He was confused just now and didn’t understand what was going on, but now that he had figured it out, it could be called a "lucid dream".
Ah, I really fell asleep in the meeting. I need to find a way to wake up quickly.
Although it was true, he would rather soak it in chocolate sauce, at least it was more interesting that way.
He figured it out. No matter how outrageous it was, it was better than being boring.
A bizarre life is definitely better than a predictable life.
However, dreams are the most unpredictable.
When you want to wake up, the dream will try every means to keep you.
When you want to immerse yourself in a dream, the dream will kick you out.
When Ye Xuan woke up, he was also completely unprepared.
Huh? You woke up already...
Listening to the continuous discussion, he knew that the meeting was still going on, and most likely no one cared whether he was awake or asleep.
As the protagonist of the incident, he was ignored.
He thought it was a good thing that he was not discovered, and the most urgent thing was to quickly adjust his sitting posture so that the leaders would not notice anything wrong.
Sleeping during a meeting is a big taboo. He is no longer a newcomer in the workplace and must keep this in mind.
Fortunately, no one cares about him.
The silent real-life NPC continued to serve as the background board and topic center of his meeting.
The discussion was clearly all about him, but no one cared that he was asleep.
Ye Xuan suddenly felt a little dissatisfied with this phenomenon.
Even if you are just a workplace slacker, you cannot accept being treated as a transparent person all the time.
What's more, he is a well-deserved "excellent employee".
“Is there no one reviewing the posts on the forum?” He raised an important question.
The interviewer looked at him strangely and said, "Of course, what are you thinking about? We just discussed this, didn't we?"
It's over. He almost exposed the fact that he dozed off.
Ye Xuan quickly turned off the microphone to prevent himself from letting the cat out of the bag again.
Looking at the reactions of the leaders around me, they didn't care about this little episode.
Oh, that was close. Fortunately nothing was found to be wrong.
He decided that he should just sit there and listen. Being able to sit at the conference table and listen to everyone discuss issues was much better than being anxious alone in the office.
People should be content. You should know that you can't always be the center of attention in the workplace, so it's okay to ignore him.
But he came in a hurry this time and didn't bring a notebook, otherwise he could have made a few drawings.
Ye Xuan, who was listening to some gaming jargon that he didn't understand, basically ignored the content of the meeting.
There's nothing he can do about it. Who told him that he knows nothing about any game other than "Dream Game"?
The examples and terms that those people in the industry talked about so clearly seemed like unheard-of foreign things to him.
He heard every word clearly, but if you asked him to explain what it meant, he would not understand anything.
The meeting finally came to an end, and the real NPC, who hadn't been able to help in any way, stretched his body.
Not tired, but sleeping.
The meeting was extremely long, and they only just finished when the programmers who had been working overtime for years were ready to go off work.
As they walked out, some dedicated people couldn't stop discussing, which was completely different from some people who were just slacking off.
Ye Xing, who was among the people, felt a little guilty. After all, it was him who caused everyone to work overtime. He was anxious when there was no meeting, and fell asleep during the meeting. It was really wrong.
Slacking off at work is not what an outstanding real-life NPC like him who is rated as an "industry elite" should do!
He suddenly realized that his current position was different from before and he could not do some things as he pleased.
For example, he is now the head of a department, so he still needs to consider the impact of his department.
But, he is the only one in this department, right?
He is a commander without any troops, so why should he worry about setting an example for his non-existent subordinates?
