"That settles it. Even you know that ghosts can't survive in a hotel, and there are high monks all around. How could that slap have been delivered by a ghost?" Hua Tuo smiled slightly and added from the side.
"Yes! I was so confused!" The man in the suit suddenly realized his mistake and nodded excitedly. "Oh dear, I've kept everyone waiting. I'll go find that kid right now! This is Yunling, after all. How dare he offend a monk? Isn't that just asking for death?"
As he spoke, the man in the suit turned and left the conference room excitedly. Zhang Ke gave Wang Yao a deep look, then turned and walked towards the podium. Ke patted Wang Yao on the shoulder and followed him towards the podium. The evening meeting was about to start.
"Not bad, he actually did criticize pseudoscience!" Luan Chu patted Wang Yao on the shoulder and walked to his seat. Wang Yao also returned to his seat and closed his eyes.
He suddenly had a feeling that he was being watched closely. The incident of the ghost slapping was over, but would these immortals in the office not know about Hui Shuo's affairs? He had practically no privacy at all. If someone caused trouble, there would be loopholes everywhere.
An unexpected event gave Wang Yao a sudden and personal understanding of the dangers within the system.
He closed his eyes for a while, but after waiting for a long time without hearing the meeting start, he couldn't help but open his eyes in suspicion. He saw that everyone in the conference room was looking at each other. It turned out that Lü Xian hadn't arrived yet. This plenary meeting couldn't be held without Lü Xian. Every department was waiting for him to summarize and assign tasks.
Without him, we can't keep going!
Wang Yao saw Ke Ke take out his phone, make a call, and then put it down again. It seemed that Lü Xian hadn't answered. Ke Ke's brows were furrowed tightly.
It was almost 8:30 when Lü Xian finally arrived. As soon as he sat down on the stage, a commotion erupted in the conference room. Wang Yao looked at Lü Xian, hardly believing his eyes. The three long, ethereal beard that Lü Xian had been known to have disappeared.
Looking at Lü Xian's bright red, smooth lips, Wang Yao couldn't help but shudder. This... this couldn't be... that it was ripped off her face? Her skin is so red? Was she plucked alive? Just thinking about it made him shudder. The Lion Roar Beast had indeed revealed her ferocious nature.
"Meeting!" Seeing the immortals looking at him and whispering amongst themselves, Lu Xian knew exactly what they were talking about. There was nothing he could do; he had adjourned the meeting late, and Xiao Cai was furious. When Xiao Cai got angry, things got serious. She wouldn't let him leave until she ripped off his beard.
In the end, for the sake of his work, Lü Xian had no choice but to abandon his former love and let go of all his defenses, allowing Xiao Cai to pluck out the three strands of his long beard that he had carefully nurtured for countless years.
Xiao Cai is right. Without the beard, he looks twenty or thirty years younger, and he and Xiao Cai are even more of a perfect match. It hurts a little, and he's definitely reluctant to part with it, but when he sees Xiao Cai, none of that matters!
The thought of Xiao Cai lying on top of him, puffing out her cheeks and plucking his beard filled Lü Xian with excitement. Youth was blooming like a flower, and nothing could be more exciting for him. So, the fact that Lü Xian no longer had a beard did not affect his mood.
It's just that after growing a beard for so many years, it's suddenly gone, and it's a little embarrassing to see it on everyone.
A moment later, Wei Cai entered, and the immortals' eyes widened in surprise. Wei Cai had three thin, playful braids in her hair, and...it was using Lü Xian's beard! Holy crap! Wei Cai had openly announced her relationship with Lü Xian to the immortals!
This… For a moment, all the immortals in the conference room were dumbfounded, unsure of what expression to make. Angry? Human Immortal Lü wasn't angry yet. Painful? Human Immortal Lü didn't feel pain even after having his feathers plucked alive. Happy? Human Immortal Lü made you happy?
In the end, Hu Fei was the most understanding. He suddenly raised his chubby hands and started clapping. The assembled immortals in the conference room immediately joined in the applause.
In this situation, there is simply no better way to express it than with applause. It signifies the office's unconditional support for everything Lü Xian has done, and symbolizes the office's strong unity and perfect harmony!
A wave of applause seemed to completely erase the matter of Lü Xian losing his beard, and the meeting continued, with the Industrial Department taking its turn next.
The pace of the Industrial Science Department is relatively fast, since there aren't many proper jobs there, and everyone is busy learning in order to keep up with the technological development of the new era.
Moreover, these guys are not only immortals, but also highly intelligent individuals before they became immortals. Although learning from them is difficult, completing the learning tasks set by the office at the beginning of the year should not be too much of a problem.
Although a few individuals may have dragged things down, the office values the power of teamwork. As long as the overall level is improving, the shortcomings of one or two bystanders can be overlooked.
After the Industrial Division concluded, the main event of the office, the Commercial Division, took the stage. Division Chief Zhao gave a lengthy report, listing the achievements of the Commercial Division in August. Not only had they completed the tasks assigned by the office, but they had also exceeded them by several percentage points.
The report also emphasized the difficulties faced by the Business Department, such as insufficient manpower, lack of goods, and heavy workload. After Director Zhao announced the achievements of the Business Department, these words sounded obviously like flattery and deliberate showing off.
Just like that high-achieving student who keeps lamenting how difficult studying is, it's practically inviting hatred. Look at Zhao Ke, he's chubby, he's definitely suitable to be a tank who can carry the boss.
Sure enough, after Zhao Ke finished speaking, the Agriculture Section and the Industry Section, which had already finished their work, immediately started working. On the surface, although Wei Ke and Chen Ke praised the Commerce Section highly, they immediately mentioned that from the perspective of the overall situation of the office, it would be best if the Commerce Section had a heavier workload.
