Chapter 10 Your son is fine, the next second...
Jason was writing furiously, while Wen Yue was watching TV and flipping through books.
Wen Yue listened to the drawn-out and boring plot on her phone in a half-hearted manner, but her attention was more focused on the book.
Jason came over curiously to take a look, picked up the books Wen Yue had placed on her lap, and said, "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen, How to Listen So Kids Will Talk, and... Nonviolent Communication? You have kids? Why are they all about parenting?"
Wen Yue lifted her eyelids and stared intently at Jason, giving him a meaningful smile, everything unspoken.
Jason: "Huh?" It's not what he thought, is it?
Wen Yue played her trump card with enticement: "Are you interested in inheriting my vast business empire?"
Are you alright?
Wen Yue chuckled and curled her lips slightly, "You've successfully caught my attention by playing hard to get!" The player had a taste of being a CEO today.
"Damn it, the fear gas seems to have damaged your brain." Jason took a few steps back, his face filled with terror.
Wen Yue couldn't hold back her laughter and bent over, laughing heartily. When she looked up after laughing, she caught Jason's still-smirking smile. The next second, Jason immediately returned to his serious expression as if nothing had happened.
The second young master still pretends to be serious as usual.
“I was just joking, but my desire to adopt you is genuine. As the heir to the Wayne family, I'm currently the only one left in the family. If I were to pass away one day, you could inherit my estate…”
“Wait, are you going to die?” Jason interrupted.
No.
"Then what nonsense are you spouting?" Jason refused without hesitation.
"Don't rush into a decision. As far as I know, your adoption relationship with Black Mask hasn't been terminated yet. This means his criminal record could easily implicate you, and he could also use this adoption relationship to interfere in your life, which would be very disadvantageous for you. Besides, I also have some selfish motives."
The actor, Jason, delivered an exceptional performance, his slightly lowered eyes concealing a layer of melancholy. He reasoned with Jason, appealing to his emotions, "You know, I lost my parents when I was young, and I live alone in this huge Wayne Manor. I feel so empty, lonely, and cold! I really, really want a family member to be with me..." He concluded, "Think about it some more, Jason."
Seeing Jason's troubled expression, the player used a feigned retreat, saying, "You don't need to answer me so quickly, I can wait, Jason."
Jason's expression softened.
The player chuckled to himself: He's got me wrapped around his little finger :)
It was getting late, so Wen Yue suggested they go tomorrow. She led Jason upstairs to Wayne Manor and, with an air of extravagance, pointed to the 108 rooms and told him to choose whichever he wanted.
Jason casually chose the room next to Wen Yue's.
Seeing this, Wen Yue's smile was even harder to suppress than AK's. Before Jason could notice, she quickly slipped back into her room.
This is in the bag—
Wen Yue had previously reviewed the system (world) logs to investigate other members of the Bat Family in DC, among whom the two most unique were Damian and Dick.
Damian does not exist and could not have been born, because Bruce Wayne's state of being created from nothing under the manipulation of the world's consciousness is special. His father himself is Schrödinger's state of being (between existence and non-existence).
However, all of Dick's information is inaccessible due to insufficient player permissions; the quest must be triggered first. The sudden appearance of the Riddler in the world's consciousness leaves players completely bewildered.
If you think about it carefully, only Jason is someone you could try to seduce—the other Bat-family member, Tim Drake, is doing better than most ordinary people right now, with both parents alive and well, a fortune to be inherited, so there's really no need to drag him into this.
As for Barbara and the others, they are living ordinary lives in an orderly manner. Even without Batman, they have not fallen into darkness, but have forged their own path and lived a life that meets their own expectations.
In contrast, Jason is in a lot of trouble. Black Mask is clinging to his parentage, the League of Assassins is trying to recruit him, and Deathstroke seems to be watching him from behind the scenes as well. In order to escape Black Mask's control, Jason joined the League of Assassins for a period of time, and then, like Bruce Wayne in the original universe, he was targeted by them.
This exceptionally talented young man is highly sought after by many forces, so Wen Yue has no choice but to use her formidable abilities to carry out her kidnapping plan.
The following day, Wayne Group.
"Is the legal team in place? Try your best to get Black Mask sentenced to death, so he won't fight me for it." Wen Yue said with a serious expression.
“Okay, but Gotham law doesn’t have the death penalty for mental illness…” The female secretary hesitated.
"The legislation that needs to be enacted should be enacted. Didn't a prosecutor named Harvey propose a bill before? Wayne should support him and help him get promoted so that the death penalty for mentally ill people can be passed as soon as possible." Wen Yue waved her hand, indicating that this was not a problem.
“Okay, then the custody battle will proceed simultaneously…” The female secretary appeared relaxed and at ease.
This morning, Wen Yue received Jason's affirmation, and she is now in high spirits, full of energy and determined to fight Black Mask for custody to the end, so that Jason can become Wayne's heir.
After everything was arranged, Wen Yue sat in the Wayne Group office and felt a sense of peace and tranquility. She was overjoyed.
She rested her chin on her hand, pondering that if Black Mask was ungrateful and overconfident, it wouldn't be impossible to arrange for the mercenary Deathstroke to assassinate him... The player was fearless and determined to overcome all difficulties, determined to let the uncooperative Black Mask experience the power of the Fourth Calamity.
A knock on the door broke the silence inside. The female secretary carried a mountain of documents into the office. The documents were piled on the desk with a "thud," and Wen Yue was startled, a bad premonition rising in her heart.
"These are the documents you need to sign..."
As her guess came true, Wen Yue felt a wave of dizziness: he was here to cosplay Bruce Wayne, not to actually become Bruce Wayne! Managing the Wayne Enterprises wasn't something a player could do.
Wen Yue's eyes lit up, and an idea came to her. "I suddenly remembered that I have something to tell Jason. I'll go to the R&D department to find him..."
She came with Jason today. Jason was writing and submitting a report to Wen Yue, and he was currently in the R&D department discussing the details of the Red Hood uniform with Lucius Fox.
A ruthless player is plotting online: He needs to find a way to push this onto Jason... The kids are all grown up, it's time for them to take over the family business!
Question Wayne, understand Wayne, become Wayne, surpass Wayne!
The female secretary turned and blocked Wen Yue's path, making her stance clear through her actions.
"This is all work you've been working on these past few days, and it really can't be delayed any longer..."
"Is this the amount of work for several days?" The player's legs went weak.
"Five days, plus the documents that have already been completed this month and only need to be reviewed and signed." It seems Wayne won't be able to go anywhere until the work is finished.
Wen Yue stared into thought at the documents that reached above her head. Was this really five days' worth of work?
"How were these documents signed before?"
“Previously, everything was delivered to Wayne Manor, but you haven’t replied this week. The documents that need to be reviewed and signed urgently this month are also in need of your approval. We were planning to go to Wayne Manor to find you soon…”
"Alright." So, you can only escape for a while, not forever. In the end, Wen Yue will still have to deal with these documents.
If you count the days, wasn't it exactly a month ago when Wen Yue transmigrated? The moment the player arrived, the world consciousness started acting like a half-hands-off manager, ready to let the player complete the signing process? Well, that's truly despicable!
Faced with the secretary's unyielding attitude, Wen Yue had no choice but to obediently sit down, pick up the documents, and pretend to look through them. Seeing this, the female secretary left the room with peace of mind.
She was too quick to relax.
Even though Wen Yue's English is now comparable to her native language, and even though she knows every single word, it doesn't stop them from looking at gibberish when put together. Is this a document review? Or is the document reviewing the players?
Wen Yue scratched her head and sighed repeatedly, feeling that she couldn't do it, that she was incapable, and that she had to give up.
As if sensing the player's intention to give up, the game panel popped up with a mission and a cheat code.
[Detected Wayne's debut series mission three: Company work]
[Work assistant has been loaded——]
The cheat arrived late, but it was a godsend for the players. The black and white text in the document was transformed by the addition of subtext to certain sentences, annotations to some business terms, and summaries of pros and cons, as well as reference answers and comments at the end, instantly making the entire document easy to understand.
The player, on the verge of death, suddenly sat up in shock: I'm working again!
A person should be viewed with new respect after a short separation; Wen Yue writes with divine inspiration, having a firm grasp on which documents to sign and which not to sign.
The world's consciousness seems genuinely trying to teach players how to read documents, with annotations as detailed as a tutorial. Is she going to work? No, she's giving a lesson!
It seems that the world's consciousness genuinely wants to teach players how to handle group affairs.
At first, Wen Yue patiently studied, but as time went by, several more batches of documents were sent over, and the documents piled up so much that she couldn't finish writing them all. In the end, she completely became a numb signing tool.
Is this the workload of supporting a business empire? I want to escape, but there's no escaping it...
After signing another document, Wen Yue slumped into her chair, her eyes vacant.
"Finished writing?" Jason was sitting on the office sofa at some point.
Wen Yue shook her head wearily, "Not yet, let's take a break." She walked over to Jason and sprawled out on the sofa next to him.

"Tsk tsk, you've had it tough too. Maybe you could find someone to share the burden." Despite saying this, Jason showed no intention of helping. "I have some things to take care of at the gang this afternoon, I'll be leaving soon."
Wen Yue's inner thoughts were like Er Kang's: No! Don't leave me alone—but outwardly she could only nod in suppressed resentment. What else could she do?
The poor player was manipulated by the job.
After Jason, the mob boss, left, Wen Yue was completely overwhelmed by her work.
At this point, I hate that the World Consciousness has been too diligent and AI-like since taking over Wayne Enterprises. They wanted to portray Bruce Wayne as a reliable business tycoon, scandal-free, not naive or innocent, even mysterious, and a kind-hearted, philanthropic capitalist with a conscience.
—Couldn't He have changed his character to a bumbling fool, like the Gotham Prince or Bruce Wayne's baby? Only when the player is hurt is a world achieved…
