Chapter 246 Dong Ge's Vision
Bang! There was a loud slapping sound, and the violent vibration shook the pile of documents on the desk to the ground.
A plastic water cup was also knocked over, rolling to the ground with a crisp clattering sound.
“Hmm…”
Bai Donglin opened his eyes drowsily and rubbed his eyes which were itchy from the dazzling incandescent light. He was awakened from his sleep and his mind was still a little dazed.
"Bai Donglin, are you awake?"
Damn it! How did I fall asleep by accident? And was caught by this mean bald guy.
With a start, he regained consciousness instantly.
Looking up at the bald fat man standing in front of the desk with a gloomy face, Bai Donglin looked embarrassed.
"Um, Manager Gou, I'm sorry, I don't know what happened. I accidentally fell asleep. Give me a chance..."
“That’s enough!”
"Humph, since you like sleeping so much, just go back and sleep. Isn't it uncomfortable to lie on the bed? Why do you have to sleep on this hard and cold desk?"
"You can go home now. By the way, your overtime pay for the past half month will be deducted."
After saying this, Manager Gou's inverted triangle eyes showed a little joy. It was another extra income, so how could he not be happy?
After looking Bai Donglin up and down, he shook his fat head and big ears, walked into the office without looking back, and prepared to go to the lounge to take a nap.
Alas, as a manager, he has to supervise these lazy employees every day, it's really hard! "Brother Dong, are you okay? This fat guy is so abominable. Your overtime pay for the past half month is more than 10,000 yuan, and he deducted it with just one sentence. It's really too cruel!"
After Manager Gou left, the atmosphere in the quiet office area instantly eased a little. Many people cast sympathetic glances at Bai Donglin. Of course, there were also people who gloated over his misfortune.
Bai Donglin looked ugly, but he suppressed his anger, forced a smile, stood up and stretched, pretending to be relaxed and said, "Mouse, I'm fine."
"I don't know what happened tonight. I was able to fall asleep after drinking several cups of espresso. It's really strange..."
A pretty girl wearing black-framed glasses diagonally opposite cast her gaze over here, raised her willow-like eyebrows, and looked at him with concern.
"Brother Dong, you should go back and take a rest. You have been working overtime for two consecutive months, even a strong body can't stand it!"
"I heard that a programmer in a big factory in the building next door died suddenly some time ago..."
"Bah! Crow's mouth!"
Bai Donglin cursed with a smile, then looked down at his watch. It was already half past ten in the evening.
My head is still buzzing at this time. Maybe I'm really overdrawn. Although I exercise regularly and am in good health, sudden death has little to do with the health of your body.
"Okay, you guys go ahead and do your work, I'll be back first."
Bai Donglin shook his head. It seemed that he really needed to take a good rest after finishing the project at hand. If what the girl with glasses said was true, no matter how much money he made, it would be useless.
He tidied up his desk, bent down to pick up the cup, and walked out with his briefcase.
Standing in the elevator, looking at the constantly jumping scarlet numbers, Bai Donglin frowned slowly.
"Why do I feel like I've forgotten something very important..."
My eyes, which had been vacant for a while, suddenly froze. Did I forget to upload the code I wrote today? Ding Dong!
Seeing that the elevator had reached the first floor, Bai Donglin curled his lips in displeasure and was too lazy to go up again to check.
Shi Shiran walked out of the company building and stood on the curb, waiting for the taxi he had just taken. According to his usual experience, it would take another one or two minutes.
Looking up, the big city is shrouded in smog, and the bright stars are no longer visible. Even the moon in the night sky looks hazy.
Sudden!
A dazzling white light filled Bai Donglin's sight...
Drop! Sizzle!
"You bastard! Do you want to die? You are standing in the middle of the street at night. If you want to die, find a place where there is no one. Don't come out and hurt others!"
Bai Donglin was startled again, awakened instantly by the driver's angry curse. The two car lights so close to him were dazzlingly white.
"What happened to me today? Why do I feel absent-minded all the time? I walked into the middle of the street without realizing it..."
"Is it a warning from the body? A sign of sudden death?"
After sincerely apologizing, Bai Donglin waited for a while and got into the taxi he had called.
The house he rented was half an hour away from the central business district, and the houses there were much cheaper.
'Why do I suddenly feel absent-minded when I see the moon and think about the stars?'
"And that blinding white light..."
Bai Donglin frowned. Something really strange happened tonight and he felt empty inside.
"Brother, we're here!"
He shook his head, as if to shake off all the random thoughts.
The lights in the urban villages seem to be dimmer, the quiet atmosphere, and the dirty and messy environment are simply two different worlds compared to the bustling, clean, and brightly lit city center.
'If I work hard for another year or two, I should be able to save enough for the down payment!'
Looking back at the brightly lit high-rise buildings, Bai Donglin's eyes flashed with a glimmer of longing. It has been three years since graduation, and he has been frugal, but unfortunately the salary increase has not kept up with the increase in housing prices.
That's why he works overtime so hard. How can he save money to buy a house without working overtime? At least he has this goal in mind.
He is an orphan who has been wandering since childhood and only hopes to have a home of his own in his lifetime.

Perhaps only in this way can he find a sense of belonging in this world.
"Ah! No! Help~"
Bai Donglin's dream was interrupted and he was frightened again by the shrill soprano voice.
Damn it, I really encountered a ghost today! Bai Donglin quickly glanced at the dark and deep alley, retracted his sight, and quickened his pace, wanting to quickly get away from this place of trouble.
"Wuwu, no! Please, I'm still a student..."
The pleading voice was unusually clear in the silent night. Bai Donglin froze and clenched his hands.
A strange emotion was spreading rapidly in my heart.
Shit! Bai Donglin turned around abruptly, opened his briefcase, picked up two red bricks from the roadside and put them into his bag.
The light in the alley was dim, and Bai Donglin could only vaguely see a few figures, but the various obscene and teasing sounds were extremely clear.
At this moment, any ordinary person can "locate by sound".
Bai Donglin tiptoed and approached quietly. The other side was outnumbered and powerful. According to his childhood fighting experience, he had to launch a surprise attack in this situation, knock down one or two first, and then shock the other side.
The four or five thugs were all focused on the girl on the ground and didn't notice Bai Donglin quietly approaching from behind.
My heart is beating violently, and a different kind of excitement is spreading through my heart.
It turns out that four years of peaceful college life and three years of boring working life have not smoothed out my edges!
Bai Donglin felt like he was back in his childhood, fighting against the school bully.
His eyes gradually became fierce and sharp.
He held the leather strap tightly with both hands and swung the briefcase in a round shape. Under the centrifugal force, it made a whistling sound! Bang! The briefcase filled with two hard red bricks hit the back of a gangster's head fiercely. Without a sound, his body softened and he fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
“Ahhhh!”
The shrill soprano voice and the sudden change startled the hooligans.
"Yellow hair!"
"You're looking for death, kid!"
Bai Donglin said nothing and continued to swing his briefcase at another red-haired gangster. The gangster raised his hands to block, but his flesh and blood body could not withstand the brick and he screamed in pain.
"What are you still standing there for? Run!"
Looking at the girl standing there in a daze, Bai Donglin suddenly felt angry. Women would always freeze up when faced with this kind of thing.
Bai Donglin leaned over, pulled up the girl with tears on her pretty face, and pushed her out of the alley, saying quickly, "Don't just stand there, run, call the police!"
The girl came to her senses, looked at Bai Donglin with gratitude, kicked off her high heels, and without caring about her torn clothes, ran quickly to the street.
Haha, I was a little dazed, but I’m not stupid.
The girl staying there was of no help to him and was instead a burden. Calling the police would definitely make these hooligans fearful and might even retreat directly.
Unfortunately, Bai Donglin still underestimated the recklessness of these young gangsters.
Sir, times have changed! (End of this chapter)
