Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Promotion and salary increase
When it was over, I was still staring at the crumpled ball of paper in my hand with a frown on my face.
The psychopath lazily leaned on the sofa. Seeing me staring at the paper ball in my hand, he asked in a hoarse voice, "What is that?"
No, buddy, you're asking me about the stuff on your desk?
Is it because the QQ space is too limited so we have to throw away our brains?
"Ovila, this is a slum demolition plan." I took a deep breath and said to him in as calm a tone as possible, "Haven't you considered that there are so many poor people here. If this place is demolished, everyone will have nowhere to go."
Olvera suddenly understood, and her beautiful face was filled with the stupidity and naivety that only the upper class could have. "Is that so? Then can't they go to the Keya District? The environment there isn't great either, but it's definitely better than here."
I choked and my fists hardened again.
Is it because I don't want to live in a big house that I don't want to? Is it because I can't punch you in the face that I feel bad?
However, psychopaths won't stop talking trash.
He just chatters and farts.
"They are a bunch of lazy bums who don't pay taxes. It's good enough that the government is willing to give them such a large piece of property to live and work in for so long. And don't you think slums affect the cityscape? It would be so beautiful if this area was turned into a scenic golf course." The psychopath said as he slowly put on his clothes.
My eyes were once again pierced by the brilliance of luxury goods, and I gritted my teeth and looked away, "Ovila, I live there too. I am also a member of the slums."
"Hahahaha!" The psycho laughed out loud. "No, no, no, useless. You're different. You're a good person. Not only are you willing to pay taxes, you're also willing to go to church and pray. It's because you're different from those lazy bums that I like you."
"If possible, I would rather not have met you." I still maintained my tenacious character, and my mind began to work quickly to think about how to trick him into giving me a new place to live.
A bunch of damned Celestial Dragons. They've been implementing welfare policies for three years, but when it comes to tax hikes and demolitions, they're like a tornado destroying a parking lot, each one faster than the last.
There’s no way a lowly calf like me can stop it, so I have to find a new place to stay.
"You're so cute." Olvera held my face and leaned in to kiss me again. "I'm almost falling in love with you, Wuyong."
It's so disgusting to talk about love or not. Can't you be more practical?
Is it possible to get a promotion and a salary increase?
I slapped him away and continued righteously, "Ovira, I'm seriously discussing this with you. They have their own difficulties. If the government were willing to grant them legal citizenship, they would definitely pay taxes like me. I'm just lucky to have citizenship. I'm not special."
A psychopath might not understand what I'm saying.
After all, I'm just a beta actress who got the position of police inspector thanks to her husband's connections in Uptown, so I have to speak in a simple and understandable way.
So I thought about it, and as I pushed him out, I continued, "Olvera, I can't bear to see them wandering around. Even though I know my meager salary won't last long, I will still help them, even if I end up being one of the wanderers myself. If you can't understand me, then please shut up."
Do you understand now?
You lunatic, please give me a promotion and a raise!
Olvera started laughing again.
God knows why this person loves to laugh so much. Did her husband marry her because he laughs like a psychopath?
"You are such a nostalgic person, useless. Don't worry, I won't sign the document so quickly." Olvera pushed the red hair on her temples back, her eyes full of smiles.
"The most important thing now is to catch those shameless worms and rebels. Until they are all sent to the scaffold, the slums will remain as they are."
My face was tense, but inside I was actually making a sharp explosion.
So what about my promotion and salary increase? You're just deducting it for nothing and not paying me, right?
Don't you Tianlong people love pure handmade products the most? I, a lowly cow, don't deserve a salary?
If I had known that the psychopath was so stingy, I would have changed my target.
I was extremely disappointed, but I still had to put on a sympathetic and compassionate expression, "...I hope so."
"I'm leaving, Olvera. Please don't contact me again. This is the last time." I straightened my clothes, which were not messed up at all. "I'm a conservative person. I can't stand this kind of relationship."
"Don't play with me, Olvera. Maybe it's just a spontaneous affair for you, but it's very important to me. Even if you threaten me with my brother, I will tell you what's in my heart. I am a person with thoughts and dignity. Even if there is a big gap between our status, our souls are the same when death comes."
I stared at Olvera with a look of pain and anger, trying to figure out which line from a book I should recite next by catching the subtle movements of his facial muscles. "I tried to have a spiritual exchange with you. It had nothing to do with status or body, just sharing souls. But you didn't take me seriously. Olvera, don't take my pain lightly. There were times when I would rather die than meet you."
"At least... at least..." Here comes the moment that tests your acting skills the most!
I raised my hand closer to him and covered his eyes in surprise.
"At least you don't have to experience the pain of being torn between principles and feelings." I whispered in his ear.
Yes, yes, yes, it’s that sad tone that is choked with pain, hatred and love.
After saying this, I quickly turned around and left the office.
Damn it, if he doesn’t leave quickly I’m going to hit him.
I walked quickly and occasionally nodded to a few police officers who looked familiar to me.
After all, I'm just a small deliveryman. Even if they catch me and put me in jail today, I still have to lick the faces of the low-level cows and horses and come here to deliver goods the next day.
A police officer saw me, looked me up and down, and snorted with extreme disdain, "Oh, pretty boy."
I immediately frowned but kept silent, looking self-respecting and proud, as if I was innocent.
Hehehe, I saw Olvera through the glass. You’ll be in big trouble in the future.
As I walked out of the police station, I saw the sunset in the sky from afar.
Damn it, no time off and I still have to work at the trucking company.
My tattered bicycle was also violently destroyed by the police during the arrest, leaving only a few pitiful small parts lying on the ground, whining silently.
Shit, go die if you're crazy.
I was so upset that I had to walk to the freight company and think about whether my savings were enough to buy a new bicycle or buy the right parts to build one myself.
The Tianlong people who exploit their employees would never think of providing them with bicycles. They would just say that lazy people don't deserve to work.
The closer I got, the more I could see lights reaching into the sky in the distance.
I knew what that light was—White Light Bay.
I can't imagine how many months' wages it takes to buy a single pair of shoes for the upper echelons of the upper class. Olvera's husband is just from Upward City. If the people of White Light Bay raise a finger, this pair of bastards will be dead. As for a little cow like me, I'll be killed by others without even asking.
Looking at that thing too much brings bad luck, so I looked away and decided not to continue looking at it.
After entering the company, I calculated that there was only a little over a minute left, so I quickened my pace to the clock-in counter.
This damn freight company, if an employee is late for even one second, the time clock will automatically shut down the recognition system, preventing the employee from entering their face.
"Ding—Employee number 2728, deliveryman Bai Wuyong!"
A mechanical sound rang out, and I rushed to punch in for work before the last ten seconds.
The fat manager standing next to the time clock rolled his eyes and was quite disgusted with my late arrival. "Lazy social parasite! If you had come to work earlier every day, you wouldn't be hanging around at the bottom. With your work attitude, you deserve to be stuck at the bottom!"
I had no expression on my face and didn't care.
If I find the chance in the future, I will definitely kick this pig out of the company!
As I was preparing a careful plan, I noticed Pighead picked up the communicator.
His expression kept changing, like a mutant pig that had taken hallucinogenic drugs.
After he finished reading the message on the communicator, he forced a flattering smile and walked towards me.
"Ahem, Bai Wuyong, the higher-ups want to talk to you."
My boss? My boss, the boss of the company?
"I understand." While maintaining my unmoved personality, I lifted my legs and walked towards the elevator.
As the elevator went up, I was still thinking about the reason why this pig changed his attitude towards me and why my boss was looking for me.
Finally reaching the top floor, I was able to see a decoration style that was completely different from the first floor of the company.
It was exquisite and luxurious, filled with expensive porcelain and delicate flowers, and even had a few servants to clean.
It fits my stereotype of an omega.
The office door was right in front of me. I didn't even need to knock because the servant had already done it for me.
I guess the servant was worried that my dirty hands would dirty the door.
"Come in."
I followed the servant in, and the first thing that caught my eye was a young omega pruning flower branches.
He was standing by the windowsill, his long white hair tied in a braid and falling over his shoulders.
"Are you useless?" The omega turned his head and looked at me.
My attention was completely drawn to the scissors in his hand.
Why would anyone put diamonds on a pair of scissors? Is that even reasonable? Can a mere omega use scissors? If not, let me use them!
Kirsty looked me up and down with disdain, her eyes darting around with a harsh and arrogant look. Because her face was so delicate, her harsh look had a unique flavor.
But I had to act confused, unmoved by his beauty. "I'm Bai Wuyong, boss."
"Tsk, I really don't know what Olvera likes about you." Kirsty threw the scissors to the ground, and the servants walked over and picked them up consciously.
"He does have a nice face, but he's from the slums and hasn't even been to college." Kirsty's complaints intensified. "Oh my God, you didn't just get out of jail, did you? Why are your work clothes so tattered? Don't you know they're company property?"
"Does intelligence decline at 28? He's such a moron."
I understand, this is also a psychopath.
I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up, because the Celestial Dragons are all psychos, they should all explode where they are.
The next second, Kirsty said, "Okay, you'll be the manager of the distribution department from now on, so don't show up at the company dressed like this again."
My eyes widened immediately, and I frantically suppressed the upward curve of my lips while using all my strength to portray my disbelief. "What? I didn't do anything, did I?"
Bullshit! I actually went crazy twice just to get a promotion and a raise!
Physical labor is also labor!
