Jiang Hua quickly waved her hands: "No, no, no..."
"Oh..." Gu Yiming nodded, then said, "Tonight, I'm going to have a duel with the 'Charming Bookworm,' do you want to come watch?"
What? A flag-planting sparring match?
Jiang Hua's eyes widened as she nodded repeatedly: "Look, look!"
Gu Yiming rolled his eyes: "He's bound to lose."
Jiang Hua immediately revealed an admiring look: "Yes, I believe in the master's strength!"
Gu Yiming smiled knowingly.
Evening arrived quickly. Gu Yiming and Fengliu Shudai were ranked first and second on the leaderboard, and the entire server knew about them because of Jiang Hua. So, many people came to watch that night.
Gu Yiming changed the gemstone and went up.
The suave scholar is a swordsman, while Yi Gu is a musician, so in this battle, they are mutually restraining.
Gu Yiming used his first skill to stun Fengliu Shudai, then unleashed a combo on him. Fengliu Shudai dodged with lightning speed and retaliated quickly with a Wind and Thunder Slash. Gu Yiming saw his health bar drop by a third and frowned. He then changed his skill order, first using his second skill to bait Fengliu Shudai's ultimate, then stunning him again, and unleashing another combo, instantly depleting Fengliu Shudai's health.
Gu Yiming didn't try to curry favor, but in the end, he still won with a sliver of health remaining.
The suave bookworm revived, then logged off without saying a word. Gu Yiming stared thoughtfully at his character's health bar.
He had calculated that he could take down the frivolous bookworm with only a tiny bit of damage, but then he noticed that the frivolous bookworm's attack power suddenly increased. Luckily, he changed his attack order in time, otherwise...
If he wasn't mistaken, Yi Yong must have used his power to either increase his attack or decrease his defense.
This Yi Yong... is indeed insidious...
Seeing that Gu Yiming looked preoccupied, Jiang Hua asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Gu Yiming smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just think this frivolous bookworm is quite amazing."
Jiang Hua asked suspiciously, "Normally when you fight someone one-on-one, even if you encounter a swordsman with a pure damage build, you don't lose this much health. What happened?"
Gu Yiming shrugged: "I was his rival in love, but I still gave in to him."
Seeing that Gu Yiming refused to say, Jiang Hua didn't ask any further questions, but instead went to pack her things for the company the next day.
In contrast, Yi Yong, after losing the game, smashed things in his office while cursing.
Just then, the female assistant timidly said, "Mr. Yi, please take a look at the list of interns for tomorrow!"
"Get out!" Yi Yong roared in fury.
The female assistant was about to leave when Yi Yong stopped her again: "You said, an intern?"
The female assistant nodded, and Yi Yong took the list, looked at the two words "Jiang Hua" on it, and smiled faintly.
The next day, Jiang Hua woke up quickly, and Gu Yiming also woke up quickly. They then drove Jiang Hua to the company.
Looking worriedly in the rearview mirror, Gu Yiming said, "Don't cause me any trouble when we get to the company!"
Jiang Hua rolled her eyes: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll earn money to support you!"
Gu Yiming was both amused and exasperated.
Soon, they arrived at the company entrance. Gu Yiming stopped the car and was about to take Jiang Hua inside.
Jiang Hua laughed and said, "Don't you think we look a lot like that?"
Gu Yiming was taken aback and asked, "What?"
Jiang Hua suppressed a laugh: "Parents take their children to kindergarten?"
Gu Yiming smiled and ruffled Jiang Hua's bangs. He said affectionately, "Remember to call me after work, and I'll come pick you up."
Jiang Hua nodded obediently.
As Gu Yiming watched Jiang Hua enter the company, he was about to leave when he turned around and saw a man in a suit watching him from the corner.
That guy... must be the philandering bookworm...
Gu Yiming smiled, giving him a warning look, and Gu Yiming returned the look with the same expression.
Two equally outstanding men, their first meeting was terrifying.
As soon as Jiang Hua entered the company, she was stopped by a man who suddenly came downstairs. The man in front of her had a pair of narrow, almond-shaped eyes, a high nose, and a neat slicked-back hairstyle.
"You're the new intern?"
Jiang Hua nodded.
Yi Yong smiled, turned to the person in charge, and said, "From now on, let her come to my office and be my assistant."
The person in charge immediately complied.
Jiang Hua thought being an assistant would involve some kind of task, but it turned out that it was just making coffee for Yi Yong and organizing documents.
This general manager seems gentle and kind, but he is also decisive and efficient in his work; he is a good person.
After getting off work, Jiang Hua gave Gu Yiming a call. Gu Yiming answered the call and came to pick Jiang Hua up very quickly.
In the car, Gu Yiming smiled and said, "How was your first day at work?"
Jiang Hua thought for a moment and said, "That's great. I'm the general manager's assistant now."
"General Manager?" Gu Yiming asked.
“Yes.” Jiang Hua nodded. “The general manager is great. He’s good-looking, efficient, and very gentle.”
If Gu Yiming wasn't mistaken, the general manager Jiang Hua mentioned should be Yi Yong, the suave and bookish guy.
But what could he say?
Is this general manager a philandering bookworm?
Oh well, let's just take it one step at a time.
Seeing that Gu Yiming didn't speak, Jiang Hua thought that Gu Yiming was jealous, so she quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, I just admire this general manager."
Gu Yiming smiled and said, "I'm not jealous at all. Now that you mention it, I'm actually quite interested in this general manager."
Jiang Hua rested her chin on her hand and said, "Yes, you two will definitely become good friends."
Good friends? Maybe. If he hadn't come and tried to take Jiang Hua from me, they might have really become friends, but that's impossible now.
Gu Yiming smiled thoughtfully.
"I'm hungry," Jiang Hua suddenly said.
Gu Yiming smiled and said, "Okay, we'll be home soon."
Jiang Hua nodded.
When they got home, Gu Yiming went to the kitchen to cook for Jiang Hua. This was the first time Jiang Hua had eaten Gu Yiming's cooking, and she thought it tasted pretty good. Gu Yiming was also quite pleased with himself.
After dinner, Jiang Hua played games on the sofa while Gu Yiming washed the dishes in the kitchen.
While washing, she said, "Xiao Hua, I'll show you something good later."
Hearing Gu Yiming's words, Jiang Hua said expectantly, "Okay."
After washing the dishes, Gu Yiming opened the game and said to Jiang Hua, "I created a guild called 'Jiangshan Ruhua' (meaning 'Beautiful Landscape')."
Jiang Hua quickly leaned over to look: "Why didn't you tell me?"
Gu Yiming chuckled and said, "Would it still be considered a surprise if I told you?"
Jiang Hua nodded: "That's true."
She joined the gang and found that there were only three people in the gang: her, Gu Yiming, and Tang Xi.
Gu Yiming seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, what will happen to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion after Wujing's title is banned?"
