Early in the morning, Yue Jiuling got up very early because she had to go to work. However, she looked at the unkempt split soul sleeping next to her and felt disgusted. She was too lazy to call him to go out for breakfast.
"Hey, I'm off to work. You're on your own now. Don't contact me unless it's absolutely necessary, and definitely don't contact me if you need something. You already have my number, remember to call me."
Hearing this instruction, Yue Jiu Nian, still half asleep, nodded haphazardly without even opening her eyes, and then fell fast asleep again.
Yue Jiuling gave her another disdainful look before going out to prepare for work.
Ya Zi was in a great mood today because the old man finally pulled some strings for him and arranged a job for him.
"Thanks, old antique. I don't know where that damned blood demon has run off to. I can't go back and report until I catch her. I've been staying in the human world and I don't have any money to eat. Luckily, you introduced me to a job. You're such a good monster."
The old man, who was being thanked, kept shaking his head to say no thanks, but inside he was crying. Damn it, if I don't find you a job soon, with your appetite, I'll go bankrupt sooner or later!
Unfortunately, no matter how much pain the old man felt, Ya Zi would never know. He looked down at the letter of recommendation in his hand and said happily, "Old man, I'll report to the management office today. Bye-bye."
"Okay, good luck!"
Watching Ya Zi leave happily, the old man breathed a sigh of relief, inwardly blaming his old friend for tricking him so badly, and vowing to settle the score with him when he had the chance.
"Beep, work card."
Hi everyone, good morning!
After Yue Jiuling and Bai Xinyu checked in, they swaggered back to their seats with their breakfasts. Mu Xiaoyi, sitting next to them, greeted them with a bun in her mouth: "Good morning."
Even the little bok choy watering the flowers waved obediently: "Good morning, everyone."
As Yue Jiuling ate her xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), she noticed that the office wasn't full. Ye Dongfeng and Yinni weren't there. She smiled and said, "Huh? Where are the other two? Were they late?"
Bai Xinyu also looked gloating: "Hahaha, they must have been playing games all night and couldn't get up again. Their perfect attendance bonus for this month is going to be deducted again."
Mu Xiaoyi also said, "Oh, I really haven't seen them."
The women were all amused by the lateness of others, but Xiaobaicai was more worried about Ye Dongfeng and his companion after hearing their conversation.
Little Cabbage carefully sprayed the potted plant with a spray bottle, afraid that overwatering would drown it. He looked worriedly at the door and said, "Hey, I wonder what's going on with Brother Feng and Brother Yinni. Why haven't they come yet?"
Yue Jiuling found it amusing to see Xiaobaicai like this. This child was so kind and worried. She tossed a steamed bun to Xiaobaicai and said, "What are you worried about? They deserved to be late and have their pay docked. Who told them to be late?"
Xiao Baicai caught the steamed bun, turned around and smiled: "Thank you, Sister Ling, but it's really bad to have my pay docked. Brother Feng said the other day that he couldn't even afford to pay his mortgage."
"Tsk tsk, so what if he can't pay the mortgage? His family is already rich. He bought the house to speculate. Don't worry about it."
Mu Xiaoyi revealed the secret while biting her straw.
"Wow, is this true? So Brother Feng is a rich second-generation heir."
Bai Xinyu also said, "That's right, so we never sympathize with him for being late, because compared to Dongfeng, we're just poor bastards."
Little Cabbage nodded, looking confused: "Oh, I see. What about Hidden Brother? Is his family also very rich? He was late too."
Upon hearing Xiaobaicai's question, everyone fell silent, exchanging smiles and glances. Finally, Yue Jiuling nodded with a half-smile and said, "Well, although his family isn't very wealthy, they're not short of money either, so don't worry."
“Yes, we’re not short of money.” Bai Xinyu echoed, thinking of her hidden family background.
"Oh, that puts my mind at ease."
Just as everyone was discussing the late colleagues, Director Yu also came out of his office. After seeing that the number of people at work was not right, he said with a bit of helplessness, "Aren't you all going too far? You're all too comfortable with your salaries. You're even late on Mondays?"
Mu Xiaoyi was the first to tattle: "Reporting to the director, our teammate Ye Dongfeng seems to be late."
Bai Xinyu also reported: "Our teammate is also hiding; he seems to be late as well."
Yue Jiuling suppressed a laugh without making a sound, while Xiaobaicai looked at Director Yu with a helpless expression.
Director Yu glanced at his watch, then raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "Very good, it's time for work now. The colleague who was late has had their perfect attendance bonus for the month deducted, and will also be punished by having to buy snacks for a week to distribute to the colleagues in the office."
Upon hearing the news, Yue Jiuling, Bai Xinyu, and Mu Xiaoyi were immediately overjoyed:
"Yay!"
"Haha, someone bought us snacks again."
"Hehe, I'm happy."
Director Yu waited quietly until the three girls finished cheering before saying, "Remember to tell the two latecomers to come find me when they arrive later."
"OK."
Seeing how happy the three girls were, Xiaobaicai finally understood why they were so excited to see someone late—it was all for the snacks!
A dozen minutes later, Ye Dongfeng and Yin Ni rushed to work one after the other, only to be cruelly informed that Director Yu already knew about their lateness, their perfect attendance bonus for the month was gone, and they had to buy a week's worth of snacks for their colleagues in the office.
Before he could even sit down, he was told this devastating news. He said with a bitter face, "No way, Lao Yu never comes out to arrest people. Why is he suddenly arresting people this time? Oh dear, my perfect attendance record is gone just like that..."
Ye Dongfeng had just entered the room when he heard this heartbreaking news. He cried and said, "Oh dear, my perfect attendance record, how could you just leave me like this?"
Yue Jiuling handed the two a freshly printed snack list: "Here, take this list. Go find Lao Yu first, and then remember to buy snacks. This is the price for being late, hahaha."
Little Cabbage wasn't feeling sorry for the two of them anymore, because the snack list included some of the snacks he wanted to eat. So, not daring to say anything, he could only look at the two latecomers with a mixture of pity and guilt.
Ye Dongfeng took the list, glanced at the quantity and variety, and immediately felt a deep sense of regret. He realized he should never be late again; these women were just too terrifying, and everything they wanted to buy was incredibly expensive!
"Holy crap! You guys are going too far! So many ridiculously expensive snacks, you're ruthless!"
Yinni regretted being late, but there was no use in regretting it. He had no choice but to be late, and the punishment rules were set by Lao Yu. He could only say that he was unlucky.
