Chapter 8, the bond is as deep as the ocean trench
I had a bit to drink that day, I apologize. Lin Yao struggled to say another sentence.
This person actually does not leave work on time! Lin Yao regretted it to the point of almost trembling with anxiety. Had he known that he would encounter him like this, he should have left immediately after work. Even if they had run into each other, being in a crowd would not have been as uncomfortable as being alone in this corridor with just the two of them.
Lin Yao was quite dissatisfied with the nature of this person, who couldn't help but laugh upon seeing him. However, considering that he had to maintain close contact with the marketing department for a long time, he could only turn his head away and pretend not to see, focusing intently on the elevator button
Jiang Yifei was taken aback for a moment, glanced at the door of the tea room, and then lowered his voice: "Oh my, it can't be that Director Guan, can it!"
"The things he has were all bought with your money, right?" Heng Dao said leisurely.
This is the alter ego of a madman, which perfectly aligns with the heroic style that the madman has painstakingly crafted over time
After the madman sold his account, he bought a celestial weapon from my friend. He made the payment via bank transfer, and the transaction was conducted through the account named 'Yogurt.' "Hengdao said slowly, "Yogurt is the wife of the account 'Righteous and Chivalrous.'"
Usually, the madman spends money quite generously; such a person wouldn't sell their account even if they stopped playing. It's obvious that the money they usually spend isn't their own. Hengdao smiled and said, "Isn't this reason enough for you to fall out with him?"
The two individuals remained silent, and Lin Yao felt as if he was about to break into a sweat. The thought of the two of them descending into the parking lot in silence, silently traversing the corridor of the parking lot, silently locating their respective vehicles... The most frustrating part was the possibility of driving in the same direction together.
Four acids, go check, then check the coordinates of the madman's alternate account again
Are you at work?" Heng Dao seemed a bit surprised
It doesn't matter
Goodbye. Guan Ze smiled, saw the small yellow cloth thrown on the back seat, and quickly turned his face away to avoid accidentally laughing again
You really think highly of this broken account of yours
"Who?" A muffled voice came from over there
Are you talking about my color-changing Rakshasi? Have you come to a conclusion?
Although Yi Xiao is domineering, he knows how to get along with his own people and has good interpersonal relationships. As for the madman, he is merely someone Yi Xiao does not wish to step forward and take the lead, but has brought out instead.
He originally wanted to ask what the child’s condition was after the accident, but considering that this might embarrass the child, he ultimately refrained from speaking up
While Lin Yao was chatting enthusiastically, he glanced at the time in the lower right corner of his computer and was taken aback. Had he really been chatting for almost an hour without even realizing it? This was the first time he had engaged so energetically with someone he met in a game, and that person had been his arch-nemesis just a week ago. Every time he saw that name, it made him want to rush over and give a thorough beating and scolding.
Lin Yao's hand holding the mouse suddenly stiffened
I am no longer alive. Lin Yao walked out of the tea room dejectedly. The bond of fate is not merely this little bit; when he thinks of everything that has happened during this time, his connection with Guan Ze feels as deep as the ocean trench!
Well, I will keep the broken number as it is of no use
If Hengdao were like Guanze, then he might consider leaving the number and marrying Hengdao instead. The elevator finally arrived, and when the elevator doors opened, Lin Yao stepped aside and entered the elevator behind Guanze.
It has been a long time
As soon as I went online, before the screen had fully loaded, I noticed a message in my private chat. Upon opening it, I saw it was from a secondary account named "Yibo Yuntian".
"It is not about causing trouble; it is that the soft-hearted horn was stolen and we cannot get it back. We are going to demand an explanation," Lin Yao thought for a moment, "That was before I was about to go for my internship in my senior year."
"Brother, it's quite embarrassing for me to have this matter of being a fool for so long come to light." Lin Yao sniffed.
Just as he pressed the button, the elevator reached the 3rd floor. Suddenly, he heard footsteps and turned to see Guan Ze approaching while looking at his phone.
I have contemplated for a long time, yet there are still things I cannot let go of, which you should understand, so I wish to return
I will no longer be able to go to the marketing department in the future Lin Yao sighed and drank the remaining coffee in his cup in one gulp
It was only after everyone in the company had left, except for a few colleagues who were still working overtime, that he slowly packed his things and went to wait for the elevator
Sitting on the sofa and looking at the information of Qiu Yueling's company for a while, Guan Ze felt a bit drowsy. He raised his eyes to check the time; it was not yet ten o'clock.
He decided to break the silence, it was just too uncomfortable
He replied with a message from the past, asking what the matter was
Ah... Lin Yao slumped onto the chair, unable to comprehend why Heng Dao was so persistent. "Brother, could you please not be like this? Even if I were to truly leave with Feng Zi, the uproar would be immense. If I were to marry you afterward, I would be ostracized by everyone. I can't find a suitable reason to do this."
I did not expect there to be someone whose sense of taste is even more impaired than my own
How do you know? Lin Yao sat up straight. Very few people knew about the madman using his money. To save face for the madman, he had never mentioned it to anyone else. He played games for fun, and bringing this matter up seemed pointless. Moreover, during his school days, he didn't have much of a sense of money. It was only after starting work, when he received a salary that was not much more than his previous allowance, that he began to be more frugal.
"Yes." Lin Yao answered without a moment's hesitation
Guan Ze sat in the car without starting it, first lighting a cigarette and then taking out his phone to look at it for a while.
With a smile in mind, Guan Ze took out his phone, hesitated for a moment, and made a call.
He really wants to reply again, but he is afraid that Ning Juan will straightforwardly clarify the matter, making everyone uncomfortable. Ning Juan is a very important person to him, a sister, a friend, and it would not be an exaggeration to say she is even a benefactor, but in any case, she cannot be someone he cannot let go of.
"Is your car... alright?" He glanced at Guan Ze with his peripheral vision
"Let's talk about something else." Hengdao did not answer his question
"Who said that?" Guan Ze frowned. He had not informed anyone about purchasing the madman's account; he did not care for that worthless account at all. He bought the madman's account solely for the subsequent matters.
It is evident that the economic foundation is likely quite good, spending 20,000 to buy that crazy person's broken account, I wouldn't want it even if it were given to me. Lin Yao clicked his tongue, knowing from the equipment on Hengdao that this person has a bit of money.
"Hmm," the young girl chuckled, her eyes narrowing into two crescent shapes. "The new marketing director, named Guan Ze, is quite charming, isn't he? Finally, there's a bit of excitement in our marketing department; the old faces are getting tiresome."
He did not reply again, and until he entered the house, he had not received any more messages from Ning Juan, which finally allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief. As he walked towards the bathroom while taking off his clothes, his phone rang just as he was removing his pants. Startled, with one leg still raised and wrapped in the pant leg, he lost his balance and fell forward, crashing against the bathroom door before kneeling down on the floor.
Lin Yao suddenly felt very melancholic. He put down the mysterious late-night snack dessert that his mother had made for him and said, "Big Brother, you can return the number to him, so why can't you sell me the Rakshasa?"
"Sister Xiao," Guan Ze smiled and asked, "What about the late-night snack?"
There are several text messages from Ning Juan in the phone, sent in the morning, expressing a desire to return to the country and asking for his opinion. He has not replied all day, and even now he does not know how to respond
Lin Yao no longer spoke, and this person did not seem to be putting on airs; he probably was just naturally taciturn. With such a disposition, he still held the position of Marketing Director, yet his total words in three sentences barely added up to ten characters, which could drive clients to tears.
"The cereal is too hot." Guan Ze took a cup of coffee, glanced at the person who was still staring at him in a daze, and turned to leave the break room
Lin Yao hesitated for a moment, unsure of the meaning of "crossing the sword," but still went to the Heavenly Palace to check the coordinates of this stuttering yogurt, which were displayed in a certain low-level training area. Upon further investigation, the coordinates of "righteousness as vast as the sky" were the same.
The phone call was made by Qiu Jiayu. As soon as the call was connected, I heard the little girl excitedly raising her voice by seven or eight degrees, even breaking a bit: "Uncle! Uncle Guan! Uncle Guan Ze! Big Uncle!"
[Private Chat] Standing with a sword: Why?
Alright, be quiet
"Yes," Lin Yao nodded, and after a moment of thought, added, "My name is Lin Yao."
[Private Chat] Hengdao Limai: It's really not that, if you want it, just log in, I haven't changed the password, and the madman hasn't said anything again. After a while, Guanze saw the account of Shenqiu Luofeng come online. He smiled; he didn't buy the account for the so-called fame of the madman. This kid really overestimates himself too much, and this is one of the reasons why Guanze finds him rather unpleasant, so pretentious.
He is the new marketing director? Lin Yao felt as if his eyes were about to pop out; he quickly put down his cup and pressed on his eyes.
Then we need to talk about your account "Marry me"
You are going to the headquarters of the game company to incite a disturbance
Dear Uncle Guan," Qiu Jiayu continued to shout, "It's you, isn't it? You bought the madman's account, didn't you? I heard today that the madman is selling accounts, and the world channel has been flooded with messages, all saying they are doomed!
What happened
Did you say that day that you only want the equipment and summoned beasts on the account, not the account itself
Guan Ze from the design department put his phone back into his pocket
He threw his phone onto the passenger seat, started the car, and before he had even driven out of the parking lot, Ning Juan's text message had already come back, as if she had been holding her phone waiting for him.
Marriage
Is it enough? The voice of the sword was laced with amusement
He stretched lazily, turned on the computer, and planned to log into the game for a while
"The two are together, what's wrong?" Lin Yao did not understand
He found Guanze's voice very pleasant to hear, inexplicably feeling that it resembled Hengdao's voice somewhat, only Guanze's voice was a bit deeper, making him feel a little weak in the knees. Unfortunately, Guanze's son is already quite grown up.
"I haven't officially taken office yet, I'm just here today to get familiar with things," the young girl said while holding a bowl of cooked oatmeal. "I estimate it will be next month. Sister Tang said this person was hard to recruit by General Qiu, so I will step aside."
Lin Yao picked up the unidentified small dessert from the table, took a bite, and then put it down. It is truly not easy for Mom to make a dessert taste bitter.
I don't know, if this continues, those people will be finished once the madman's number is gone! Qiu Jiayu was still very excited, continuously shouting
Crazy? Guan Ze smiled and said, that day was indeed a bit neurotic
Quite amazing
Lin Yao felt helpless and had no choice but to start chatting with him
Heng Dao did not speak, but Lin Yao heard the sound of him typing on the keyboard. After a while, Heng Dao said again: "It seems that this reason is not substantial enough, so let me help you add some details. You go check a coordinate, sour sour sour sour milk"
Let's chat
"Director Guan, I am leaving now," Lin Yao shouted as he drove past him.
"It's nothing." Guan Ze's response was brief, and after speaking, the two fell silent once again
Now that I have used it, please return the account to me
"Wait, stop," Guanze quickly interrupted her, "Just 'uncle' will suffice, do not elevate the generation to that of 'big uncle.'"
In Guan Ze's view, the reason that group of people has been able to dominate for so long is actually due to a charming smile.
After sitting for more than ten minutes and pondering for a long time, he replied to Ning Juan: Isn't everything quite good over there? You need to consider this matter seriously
Upon entering the parking lot, Guan Ze watched as Lin Yao hurriedly dashed towards the small Xiali, almost as if he were fleeing. He slowed his pace, as his own car was parked right behind the small Xiali. Observing Lin Yao's frantic demeanor, he thought that if he were to approach directly, it might cause Lin Yao to crash into a pillar out of sheer anxiety.
Well, I have just started working for a few months, how about you
It is him! Lin Yao also lowered his voice, gritting his teeth, "What is fate! Brother Jiang, do you know what fate means?"
Guan Ze heard the faint sound of Qiu Yueling calling her daughter to eat from over there: "You can eat first and do your homework later"
Guan Ze made a sound of acknowledgment and then fell silent, while Lin Yao had no choice but to remain quiet as well
Do you know who the person involved in the car accident I just mentioned is
If he directly tells Ning Juan not to come back, she will definitely be unhappy, and he has no real reason to stop her from returning to the country. However, deep down, he truly does not wish for her to come back
Ning Juan's text message caused Guan Ze to furrow his brows, and he was so distracted that he nearly collided with the exit barrier
"Enough!" Guan Ze leaned against the door frame, looking helplessly at his disheveled appearance in the bathroom mirror. "No need for formalities, please rise."
"What did you just call him?" Lin Yao finally regained his composure and quickly asked the young woman from the marketing department, "That person just now, Director Guan?"
Fate is not about the new director who collided with you, " Jiang Yifei said with a face full of sorrow, " Fate is when you call the new director crazy, and they are standing right behind you ... ...
"Please don't put me in a difficult position, big brother. This matter has attracted too much attention. Besides, I have known the madman for such a long time; I should at least give him some face. He is not quitting after all," Lin Yao said as he sat down in front of the computer. He saw that the madman's account had sent him a message, and he was taken aback. "Did you return the account to the madman?"
Private chat: Yes, you said it is not necessary
The two began by discussing the foolish things they did when they first started playing the game, recounting their experiences of dominating the server. Although Hengdao did not say much, each of his responses was quite pertinent, making the conversation feel very pleasant.
"No, I'm taking poison," he said with a laugh, his voice echoing as he went upstairs. "What is it?"
Aren't you buying my account precisely because of its reputation?
Our gang members cannot be without this account, besides, didn't you say you didn't want it?
You stuttered
When work ended, Lin Yao did not leave immediately; he wanted to avoid the busiest time, primarily to avoid encountering Guan Ze, which would be quite awkward.
Jiang Yifei stretched lazily and said, "Ah, this director's vacancy has finally been filled, it has been empty for several months."
In fact, setting aside the previous grievances with Hengdao, Lin Yao found this person to be quite decent. He had played games with the madman for two years and had made numerous phone calls, yet he had never been able to talk to the madman for even an hour, feeling that there was nothing much to discuss.
Guan Ze hung up the phone, took out a bag of biscuits and casually ate a few bites, tired of eating noodles every day. After eating two pieces of biscuits, it was still uninteresting, so he took out the milk he had just bought from the supermarket downstairs, opened it, and took a sip. Just as he was about to swallow, he suddenly remembered Lin Yao's cup of sour milk tea, quickly covered his mouth and swallowed the milk, then chuckled a couple of times.
Hmm. Guan Ze responded, raising his head to see who it was. The smile at the corner of his mouth could not be contained. For some reason, seeing this child made him want to laugh.
"Where was I just now?" Lin Yao, momentarily distracted, forgot what he was going to say
Guan Zhe did not notice him, as he was focused on his phone. Lin Yao hesitated for a moment and greeted, "Director Guan, you are just leaving now."
"The Rakshasi offers you, do you want it?" Heng Dao asked
