"As long as you, beautiful lady, are willing to have a drink with me, what is a certificate? I'd gladly offer you my life."
Lin Lin curled her lips into a smile, crossed her legs, and revealed a glimpse of her alluring figure.
"The man I want must be a real man, big, thick, long, and with strong stamina." Lin Lin glanced at the man. "Take your pants off. If you pass the test, I'll go with you."
Taking off his pants in public—is he trying to ruin his reputation?
The man flew into a rage, pointing at Lin Lin and saying, "Don't push your luck. This area is my territory. If you don't want to come in upright and leave horizontally, you'd better come with me."
"Master? You're only a bit rugged in appearance, like a real man. As for the rest, tsk tsk..."
Lin Lin has lost her previous social skills of getting away unscathed without offending anyone; now she's like a prickly, irritated kitten that bites anyone she can get her hands on.
"Good, good, good, this is the first time I've ever seen such a courageous little woman."
The man clapped his hands, and several burly men ran out of the brightly lit bar. "Take him away. Once I've had my fun, she's yours."
"Let me go, let me go! It's illegal for you to arrest people without authorization."
Despite Lin Lin's shouts and cries, what was bound to happen still happened.
Lin Lin's resistance was futile, and she could only lie down and accept it. Five hours later, dressed in tattered clothes, she returned to the bar.
"You've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for so long."
Lin Lin sat next to the "alluring female demon" and ordered a strong drink from the bartender.
Tang Fei looked at the disheveled Lin Lin, a hint of schadenfreude flashing in her eyes.
"Lin Lin, what's wrong?" Tang Fei asked with concern.
Tang Fei reached out, wanting to hug her best friend and comfort her. Lin Lin gave Tang Fei a cold look, her deep, unfathomable black eyes flashing with a fierce light.
"It's nothing, I was just gang-raped by a few men."
Lin Lin spoke casually, as if she really didn't care about the previous trouble.
"Why are you so late?" Lin Lin said through gritted teeth.
Tang Fei shivered and replied tremblingly, "Overtime."
Lin Lin had also been a senior executive at Tianxia Games. She had heard about the company's custom of requiring junior employees to perform tasks every now and then, so she didn't doubt whether Tang Fei had lied to her. After asking a few unimportant questions, she let Tang Fei go.
"I called you here today because I have something to tell you to do." Lin Lin didn't give Tang Fei a chance to refuse and continued, "If you don't want me to make your affair with the Peerless Celestial Venerable known to everyone, you'd better obey me."
"I……."
"Tang Fei, Tianx World Games is a company everyone aspires to be in. It has no twisted bosses, no backstabbing colleagues, and it doesn't require you technical staff to risk your lives dealing with those two-faced big shots in the business world. You escaped your past miserable life because of me. As the saying goes, a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of gratitude. I indirectly saved your life, shouldn't you repay me properly?" Lin Lin gently stroked Tang Fei's pale face, her smile impossible to hide.
"I understand," Tang Fei resigned herself to her fate.
Thinking about her affair with the peerless celestial being, which had become common knowledge, Tang Fei broke out in a cold sweat. Seducing a married man, having multiple abortions—she was morally corrupt, unfit for any important position. Even a meritorious and hardworking employee like Lin Lin was ruthlessly dismissed for this reason; what ability did she, a mere employee, have to stay?
"That's a good girl." Lin Lin patted Tang Fei's cheek. "Don't be afraid. I don't want you to kill or set fires. I just hope you can help me teach someone a lesson. Luo Qing stole my man, and I'm not having a good time. I want Luo Qing to suffer even more. Luo Qing is still playing the online game 'Hybrid Overlord' that I recommended to her. You're still an employee of the company, and you have the password I gave you. It'll be easy for you to change the game's difficulty. Isn't Luo Qing supposed to be a dream player who can conquer any game? I want to see if she can still be the first player to completely conquer 'Hybrid Overlord'."
"Lin Lin, this is not right. If the company catches me, I will be imprisoned."
Altering the game's difficulty is tantamount to stealing company secrets.
Lin Lin only cared about whether she could achieve her goal; what did Tang Fei's life or death have to do with her?
...
Ji Xiaoxiao was so focused on winning over the God of Light that she was unaware that she was being plotted against by Lin Lin and the others.
"Please don't bother me this time."
Lying in the gaming pod, Ji Xiaoxiao warned Liao Kongmin in a clear and distinct voice not to bother her anymore.
Liao Kongmin pouted, looking aggrieved, and softly replied with an "Mmm".
"Once I conquer the God of Light, I will reward you handsomely." Ji Xiaoxiao breathed into Liao Kongmin's ear, "Then, you can do whatever you want."
If I don't cherish my own husband, who will?
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Liao Kongmin waved, just like a wife seeing her husband off at the door.
After agreeing on the terms, Ji Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, lay down, and pressed a button on her right. The game pod door slowly closed.
Scene change, enter the online game world of "Hybrid Overlord".
Back at the grassy area at the foot of Mount Shenming, Ji Xiaoxiao gave a meaningful look to the pure white angels coming and going, and then secretly slipped out of the Bright Continent.
Ji Xiaoxiao left the Bright Continent with a clear destination: a small island in the center of the Seven Continents. This island was the base of the mercenary headquarters in "Hybrid Overlord," teeming with powerful individuals. Mercenaries were a group of desperate outlaws who lived on the edge of death; they would take any job as long as they could afford it.
