Chapter 992: The Part-Time Expert (8)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Junior Sister, you’re back.” Wu Qing waited by the stairs on the third floor and walked forward as soon as Ming Shu came down.
“…” Ming Shu looked at him. Why did he suddenly become so enthusiastic?
“Did Mr. Si embarrass you?”
“I didn’t see him, why would he embarrass me?”
“You didn’t see him? Then who did you give the file to?”
“His assistant,” Ming Shu answered. “You didn’t tell me to give it to him.”
“…” When Mr. Si saw the signature, he would still call him up and scold him, wouldn’t he?
But it ought to be better than that junior sister getting scolded… Because if his junior sister was scolded, he would be scolded by his supervisor.
“Cough cough, Junior Sister, you’ll follow me in the future.” Ming Shu revealed a confused look, so Wu Qing explained further, “Our supervisor told me to look after you in the company.”
Oh, he’s also the bald old man’s student. No wonder he called me his junior sister.
Speaking of which…
“Were you trying to see me get scolded by asking me to deliver the file?” That Mr. Si looked like a local tyrant just at one glance.
“Hahahaha no no no, it’s not like that…” Wu Qing uttered an awkward laugh. “Junior Sister, I’ll treat you to a meal later and welcome you to the team.”
Wu Qing saw Ming Shu immediately begin to smile happily.
Wu Qing: “…” Looks like I’ve discovered some kind of new skill.
“Can we play games in here?” Ming Shu asked Wu Qing while pointing at the game helmet.
“Yes, we focus on work and rest, and our project is also related to this, so the occasional relaxation might give you some inspiration. Do you play Asking Gods, Junior Sister?”
“Yes.”
“We can play together when you have time. I’m quite good, you know, and I can help you level up.”
Ming Shu answered seriously, “I’m also very powerful.”
In games, boys were usually more powerful than girls, so even though Ming Shu said this, Wu Qing actually didn’t take it seriously and just agreed.
When it was about time to get off work, Wu Qing was called up, and even if there was one floor between them, it seemed the others could hear the fierce rebuke coming down from the fourth floor.
Wu Qing came down with his head lowered. Most of the employees on the second floor had left; those who hadn’t left gave Wu Qing a salute with sympathetic eyes and while mourning for their own future of being rebuked just like him.
Wu Qing invited Ming Shu to have a meal, then invited her to play the game.
He needed to vent his anger in the game, to get over being scolded.
“What’s your ID? I’ll befriend you,” Wu Qing asked Ming Shu before logging in.
“Wind He Rising.”
Wu Qing felt like the name sounded a little familiar. When he searched it, he felt his entire person become stunned.
Wasn’t this the game expert?
Ming Shu set limitations for strangers, so Wu Qing sent an invitation over and it was immediately accepted.
Infinite Royal Graciousness: Junior Sister?
Wu Qing asked very cautiously.
Wind He Rising: Yes.
Infinite Royal Graciousness: … This is a strike to me. I need some time to calm down.
His junior sister was actually a game expert!
It seemed the supervisor did tell him that his junior sister liked playing games… He especially told him to arrange more work for her so that she wouldn’t have the opportunity to waste her time.
For ordinary people, it might be a waste of time, but for an expert… That’s not wasting time at all! That’s called cultivation!
They actually had much work to do for the project and Ming Shu didn’t have as much time as before to play games.
Ming Shu hadn’t met that aggressive boss Mr. Si ever since, either. But he ought to be here in the villa, as after all, everyday there would be some people who were called up and receive words of abuse.
Wang Heyang urged her several times. The training room prepared for them was now only visited by Jiang Liu alone, and none of the rest of them had shown up there.
When the preliminary contest for the autumn season’s contests came up, Ming Shu asked for leave from Wu Qing.
Yunxing Project’s core was not them, and the core research was all in the basement, so it was easy for Ming Shu to ask for leave.
Ming Shu hurried to the place where the preliminary contest was being held.
Wang Heyang and Jiang Liu had already arrived.
“You came alone? Where’re the rest of the team?” Wang Heyang came up in a hurry.
“Take it easy, we’ve got enough time.” Ming Shu acted cool and took out her phone, asking them one by one.
Overlapped Moon and Sun: I’ll be there in a minute.
Tonight’s Moon: In a minute.
Yellow Crane Returning West: I’ve gotten on the plane.
Qingqiu Zhong: With Xigui (Returning West) on the plane.
The two who said they would be here in a minute surely arrived soon, one after another. Overlapped Moon and Sun rode a pink electric motorcar, which formed a weird contrast to his tall figure.
Tonight’s Moon was relatively cool, driving an SUV with its windshield missing, the body of which was also almost wholly covered with mud. It was parked in the parking lot and became a beautiful scenery.
The two shared the same expression when they saw Ming Shu.
What the hell was wrong here?!
How could Wind God be a girl?
Although Wind God did play female characters… They always thought that it was just his hobby.
Ming Shu bit a lollipop. “Is your shock serious?”
“Sister, you tell me!” Tonight’s Moon collapsed. The Wind God that they had believed in for so long was actually a girl!
Jiang Liu offered a smile beside them. He also reacted like so when he found out.
Finally, he got his companions.
It was surely just right that he didn’t tell them.
Ming Shu smiled. “I never said that I was a boy.”
“…”
They squatted outside the venue and made simple introductions to each other.
Overlapped Moon and Sun was a big guy who didn’t talk much.
Tonight’s Moon looked very gentle and spoke with a fine sense of humor, but judging from his car… It was suspicious whether he was just pretending to be a gentleman or not.
“Where’s the other two?” Wang Heyang ran over. “The registration for the preliminary contest will soon close.”
They had signed up online before today, but if they couldn’t submit the application form before the end of today, it would be considered as withdrawing voluntarily.
Wang Heyang was tired in his heart. This is the worst team I’ve ever had!
Just as Ming Shu was about to take out her phone again, rumbling suddenly sounded from the sky.
Rumble—
A helicopter was parked on a nearby building, and soon, Yellow Crane Returning West and Qingqiu Zhong showed up from the building in tailored suits, as if they’d just come back from a wine party.
Yellow Crane Returning West had a cold face and spoke very little and very simply.
Qingqiu Zhong was rather lively. After they also got shocked by the fact that Wind God was a girl, Qingqiu Zhong soon accepted this fact and had fun with the others.
The only similarity between them was probably… They were both rich and handsome.
“If it weren’t for so many buildings nearby, I was thinking of directly jumping from the helicopter. That’ll definitely be cool!” Qingqiu Zhong said while smiling. “What do you say, Wind God?”
Ming Shu: “If you get killed like that, we’ll have to pay to clean the mess up, right?”
“Wind God, how can you say something like that. I believe you’ll catch me!”
“Sorry, but I’m just a weak girl and I can’t catch such a big figure like you.”
Wang Heyang: “…”
Who are all these ancestors?
Yellow Crane Returning West checked his watch. “I have a meeting in four hours, so let’s stop wasting time.”
Wang Heyang nodded and led them in to fill in the application form.
But looking at the column for the team name, they were all a little dumbfounded.
“Mr. Wang, what’s our team name?” Ming Shu chose to ask directly.
Wang Heyang was on his phone and almost dropped it after hearing Ming Shu’s question.
“Don’t you have a team name?”
“Isn’t that your job, Mr. Wang?” Ming Shu smiled without teeth.
Wang Heyang: “…”
What the f*ck…
I can’t even see your shadows all day long, who am I going to ask for opinions? I’m busy, okay? I forgot it.
The staff member responsible for registration just looked at this strange team disbelievingly. He and Wang Heyang looked at each other in speechless dismay.
He had been doing this job for so long, but it was his first time seeing a team without even a name coming to sign up for a contest.
