Working: Start by earning the boss a hundred million!

Chapter 52 Your Exam
Xuanhe Technology was still brightly lit.

The Science and Safety Department, in particular, has seen a sudden surge in workload recently. Since Xiao Qian returned, he has been extremely busy. Shen Luo has already added ten new staff members to his team, but it is still not enough.

Xiao Wang thought things would be easier after the new system went live, but problems kept being discovered and raised, and many users even came to him for help.

Yes, they only dare to come knocking on our door late at night.

Shen Luo was quite satisfied with the current situation. It was good that everyone was busy; it proved that things weren't so chaotic outside.

After reminiscing, Shen Luo noticed that the boss's office was brightly lit. He thought for a moment, then walked over, knocked on the door, and went inside.

"Boss, haven't you gone back yet?"

Shang Xingjian didn't turn around, keeping his eyes fixed on the moon outside the window. Shen Luo walked over with a bit of curiosity and followed the shopkeeper to look at the moon as well.

"The boss is still worried about the blood moon. Perhaps it was just an accident, a natural phenomenon. It hasn't happened in the last two years, has it?"

A blood moon is a sign of the collapse of the void. Before the collapse of the void realm, there was a blood moon that lasted for ten consecutive days.

Shen Luo had never seen him, but had heard of him many times.

Two years ago, the blood moon reappeared, but only for a fleeting moment.

Shang Xingjian withdrew his gaze and looked at Shen Luo, "Why didn't you go back to rest?"

Shen Luo smiled and followed Shang Xingjian to the reception room. "Xiao Qian asked me for people, so I came to take a look. I'm quite happy to see how busy they are."

The fact that things are getting busy proves that things are gradually getting better, and the evil spirits and creatures affected by the blood moon will gradually appear.

Shang Xingjian glanced outside; Xiao Qian was still outside, calling out and assigning tasks.

That's good, just as he expected.

"Boss, is it okay if only General Meng An is there at Maimai?" Shen Luo was a little worried, after all, she had heard the person behind her speak, and he didn't sound like an ordinary person.

In particular, General Meng An was accompanied by a little one.

"Sometimes, the brain is a..."

"Xiao Qian, I need to talk to you about something." Cheng Mai's voice came from outside.

Shen Luo glanced at the boss, then looked outside, and finally walked out.

Xiao Qian looked up from among the thousands of documents, saw the person approaching, pushed aside the documents, and ran over. "Mr. Cheng, what's wrong?"

"Excuse me, this is my neighbor, Luo Linwen. She's run into some trouble lately, could you help her out?" Cheng Mai brought Luo Linwen over.

Xiao Qian blinked and pulled Cheng Mai aside. "Mr. Cheng, didn't we take on this job from President Shen?"

Looking at Xiao Qian's mysterious expression, Cheng Mai asked, "Does a law firm that takes on a plaintiff's case not have the right to take on a defendant's case?"

Xiaoqian asked doubtfully, "Is that possible?"

Cheng Mai: "I think so."

Why can't we do things that make money?

The two looked at each other, and finally Cheng Mai said, "Your department isn't just one person; it's divided into several groups, isn't it? Why not just let different groups be responsible for it?"

Xiaoqian thought about it carefully and realized that what Xiaocheng said was right and made sense.

"It doesn't matter whose money you make." Xiaoqian's eyes practically lit up with money as she rubbed her hands together with a grin. "I'm making money, I'm making money again."

Now I can go brag to Xiao Wang again; he's now in the company's most profitable department.

Cheng Mai smiled and nodded. He liked Xiao Qian very much; her passion for making money was just as intense as hers.

"Have Chongchong trace back what happened to her tonight. It seems someone used puppetry on her," Cheng Mai instructed.

"MaiMai, the boss wants you to come in." Shen Luo came out of the boss's room and called Cheng Mai with a smile.

"I understand." Cheng Mai didn't rush in, but looked at Luo Linwen who had come with her. "To tell you the truth, we also accepted Shen Yuanbai's request, but don't worry, Xuanhe Technology has only one goal, which is to catch all the evildoers, no matter who they are."

Luo Linwen came here during the day, but she was turned away because Shen Yuanbai had also been here.

"Thank you," Luo Linwen said sincerely.

Cheng Mai waved his hand and turned to go to the boss's office.

Cheng Mai knocked on the door three times, but there was no response from inside, so she pushed the door open and went in.

"Boss, did you call me?" Cheng Mai said, closing the door and looking at the man sitting behind the desk playing games. He couldn't help but think that the man was just bored.

Here are a few words for you: You can know a person's face, but not their heart.

Cheng Mai leaned against his desk and peeked at his game interface. "Boss, we're going to lose."

As soon as Cheng Mai finished speaking, the KO page appeared on Shang Xingjian's phone, and it turned black and white.

Cheng Mai clicked her tongue. She should have just said it.

She reached out and took Shang Xingjian's phone, starting a new game. "Boss, both sides need to be present in a lawsuit. Since Shen Yuanbai and Qin Mai are both on the field, there's no reason why Luo Linwen can't be on the field."

Shang Xingjian's phone was taken away, but he didn't seem to mind. He just watched Cheng Mai leaning against his table, playing games on his phone. He leaned back in his chair, watching Cheng Mai's back the whole time.

"Do you think Luo Linwen is a good person?"

Cheng Mai continued playing his game without stopping. "Does the boss think Qin Mai is a good person?"

Shang Xingjian did not answer, and Cheng Mai naturally did not answer either.

“But that makes sense. I unexpectedly saw a child next to Qin Mai today. The child looked…” Cheng Mai controlled his phone to make a crucial cut, and a victory screen appeared. Then he turned to look at Shang Xingjian, “The boss must have been this cute when he was a child.”

As Cheng Mai spoke, he slapped the phone into Shang Xingjian's hand. "Boss, do you think Qin Mai is a good person because you know her, or because you feel guilty towards her?"

Cheng Mai's hand was still on the phone, and it was stacked on top of Shang Xingjian's hand through the phone. The two were so close that they could hardly see each other's faces.

Shang Xingjian didn't rush to get his phone back; they just breathed in each other's mouths, neither willing to back down.

“There is another kind of magic in the world, called the illusion magic,” Shang Xingjian said slowly, then took back his phone, got up and moved away from Cheng Mai. “There is still a lot you need to learn. The physical eye, the heavenly eye, the Dharma eye, the wisdom eye, the Buddha eye, the Dao eye—what you see is not necessarily the truth. Only by discarding all illusions can you truly glimpse something.”

Cheng Mai remained motionless for a moment, listening to what was said before straightening up. "Then tell me, what is the truth?"

Since she can't see through it, can she just ask directly?
Shang Xingjian walked to the window, leaned against the railing, and looked at Cheng Mai, who was asking directly, "This is your exam. You're asking for answers as soon as the book is opened. Is that polite?"

"My exam?" Cheng Mai asked, confused. "When did I register?"

"Protecting you with all of Xuanhe's power always comes at a price. It's just an exam; surely Xiao Cheng won't fail it?"

The business used a reverse psychology tactic.
