Miler, who has a system for giving up
Chapter 37: Recruiting Two Capable Henchmen
We chatted happily, and time passed slowly. I don't know how much time had gone by, but suddenly the doorbell rang. I quickly went to the door and opened it.
Outside the door, a mysterious man stood quietly, wearing a black mask that obscured his face.
He clutched a black bag tightly in his hand, as if it contained endless secrets.
"Who are you?" I was slightly surprised to see this man. The man nodded slightly and handed me the bag he was carrying.
I carefully took the bag, gently opened it, and found it filled with all sorts of rare medicinal herbs.
I stared at the man before me with curiosity, my mind filled with questions. Was he the one who had just made the phone call? Were these really the precious medicinal herbs he had described? I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement and anticipation.
I tentatively asked, "Are these all the medicinal herbs you mentioned? And what kind of pills do you need?" The man nodded slightly, a determined glint in his eyes, as if he had absolute confidence in his requirements.
His tone was unusually calm, as if everything was under his control. "You can check it yourself. Right now, I don't urgently need the pills, but when I do, I will send someone to collect them. At the same time, I will also give you the pill formulas; you just need to refine them according to the formulas."
My eyes widened, and I was secretly amazed. Who exactly was this man? Why would he have such special requests and arrangements? Was he a representative of some mysterious organization or a powerful family? A series of questions flooded my mind, making me even more intrigued by this man.
I began to examine these medicinal herbs closely and discovered that they were indeed extremely rare varieties, which filled me with joy.
"Who exactly are you? And why do you possess these precious medicinal herbs?" I asked curiously. However, the man fell into a brief silence, seemingly pondering how to answer my question.
Finally, he slowly spoke: "I obtained these medicinal herbs through special channels. As for who I am... you don't need to know." After saying that, he turned and left, leaving me alone to face this sudden mystery.
When everyone saw the precious medicinal herbs I brought back, their faces lit up with undisguised excitement and anticipation.
These medicinal herbs are extremely rare, and for us, this is undoubtedly a rare opportunity. Although they come from a large family, they could not contain their excitement when faced with such precious herbs.
Our conversation gradually shifted to the interview. After some discussion, I finally agreed to attend the second interview, which was scheduled for tomorrow.
Considering the convenience of tomorrow's interview and communication, they decided to stay at my villa.
This way, everyone could prepare and discuss the relevant matters more easily. Therefore, Qin Yimeng decided to stay in the same room as Yan Luo so that they could chat together more easily.
After all, they are best friends, and living together makes it easier to communicate and share their feelings.
Han Heng, Ye Dongjun, and Sikong Feng were arranged to stay in the guest rooms on the second floor. These two rooms were adjacent to each other, separated by a small corridor, ensuring they had sufficient privacy.
Although they weren't on the same floor, they could still go upstairs at any time to talk to Yan Luo and Qin Yimeng.
The entire villa is filled with a warm and inviting atmosphere, making people feel comfortable and relaxed. Everyone has their own room, yet they can always gather together and spend wonderful time together.
This place has become a haven for everyone's soul, allowing them to forget the noise and pressure of the outside world and enjoy a peaceful life.
This small arrangement made the atmosphere more intimate and harmonious, as if we had become a closely united team. Everyone looked forward to tomorrow, full of confidence to meet new challenges.
I went back to my bedroom, slipped into the herb garden, and planted all the herbs that the mysterious man had given me.
And I went to see the two little guys who were still evolving; it seemed they were about to break through.
After leaving the herb field, I glanced at the time; it was already 23:58 PM. I called for my little cutie to come out.
A short while later, the little cutie's adorable voice came from beside my ear.
"Master, congratulations! You have successfully spent 20 hours lying around today. You are rewarded with 'Lying Around Coins'. You can sign in now."
I checked the time; it was just past midnight. I said, "Little cutie, sign in."
"Sign-in successful! Congratulations on successfully signing in for 15 consecutive days! Keep it up! Rewards: 5 Peach Fragments, 3 Fragments of a 500-year-old Lightning-Struck Wooden Sword, Fortune: Moderately Auspicious, 13 Lottery Tickets."
"Okay, little cutie, you go and rest. I'll check the character panel myself." After saying goodbye to the little cutie, he reached out and clicked on the character panel on the system.
The little cutie said in a sweet voice, "Okay, Master, I'm going to rest now. Master, you should rest early too."

After closing the interface, I continued my cultivation while suppressing my cultivation level.
During the cultivation process, I could feel my strength gradually improving.
However, just as I was about to break through the bottleneck, a powerful energy fluctuation came from the outside.
I was startled and immediately stopped cultivating, opening my eyes to look out the window.
A strange light appeared in the sky, and then a figure slowly emerged from the light.
It was Han Heng! He exuded a powerful aura, clearly indicating that he had made a significant breakthrough.
He smiled at me, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. "Milo, I did it!"
He said excitedly. I was happy for him, and at the same time, I asked curiously, "How did you do that?"
Han Heng walked over to me, sat down, and slowly said, "Ever since I confessed my feelings to you last time, I've been diligently cultivating at home. During my cultivation, I suddenly comprehended a new technique, and with the help of this technique, I successfully broke through my bottleneck."
I exclaimed sincerely, "That's amazing! Congratulations, Han Heng! It seems we all need to work harder."
Han Heng nodded, then handed me a small box: "This is a gift for you. I hope it can help you." I opened the box, and inside was a crystal-clear pill, emitting a rich spiritual energy.
"This is..." I asked in surprise. "This is a pill I specially made for you. It can enhance your cultivation and make your breakthrough process smoother."
Han Heng explained. I looked at him, touched, and accepted this precious gift. "Thank you, Han Heng. I will definitely make good use of it."
Han Heng gently held my hand and said affectionately, "Mi Le, thank you. If it weren't for your motivation, I might not have been able to break through so quickly." A blush rose on my face, and I whispered, "Thank you for your confession too, it made me even clearer about my own feelings."
Han Heng's eyes softened, and he said softly, "Would you like to be my girlfriend?"
I nodded shyly, and Han Heng laughed happily, hugging me tightly.
At this beautiful moment, our hearts drew even closer. With Han Heng's encouragement and support, my confidence soared. I closed my eyes again and continued to cultivate wholeheartedly, preparing for the upcoming breakthrough.
Han Heng continued to consolidate his cultivation beside me, while I continued to compress my cultivation, preparing to break through and overcome the tribulation in a while.
We were both so engrossed in our cultivation that we were completely unaware of the changes happening around us.
Because the noise generated by Han Heng's breakthrough affected the others, they eventually realized that the powerful aura was coming from my room, so they went to sleep peacefully.
The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the window. We knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. I hadn't locked the door, but no one came to open it.
Yan Luo held the key to my bedroom and opened the door. When he saw the scene inside my bedroom, he was stunned.
At this moment, Han Heng and I were about to awaken from our cultivation state. Seeing this, everyone tiptoed to close the door and then went downstairs to leave.
When Han Heng and I finally awoke from our cultivation, the sun was already high in the sky. We felt our bodies brimming with power, and our cultivation levels had significantly improved.
We went outside and saw everyone downstairs sitting around the dining table, smiling at us.
"You're finally awake!" Yan Luo said with a smile. "Judging from your appearance, you've gained quite a bit from this cultivation!"
Han Heng and I exchanged a smile and sat down to have breakfast with everyone. In a pleasant atmosphere, we discussed our plans for the future.
"Now that we've both made breakthroughs, why don't we explore some farther places together and look for more opportunities? How about we go after we finish Xiao Lele's interview today?" Han Heng suggested.
Everyone agreed to the suggestion, so we quickly finished breakfast and drove together to the laboratory. Upon arrival, Sikong Feng instructed his subordinates to arrange for the two men to be interviewed in the conference room.
I was seated in the middle of the conference room, with Qin Yimeng on the far left, and Yan Luo and Sikong Feng on Qin Yimeng's right.
At the same time, Han Heng sat to my right, and Ye Dongjun sat to Han Heng's right. Not long after, the two of them were led into the conference room.
When Jiang Feifei and Hao Jianjun walked in and saw everyone sitting there, they were somewhat surprised, but they quickly composed themselves and gave us a slight bow. Then, they walked to the opposite side of us and sat down on the two stools that had been placed there.
I smiled at them and gestured for them to begin introducing themselves.
Jiang Feifei spoke first, her voice clear and pleasant, "Hello everyone, my name is Jiang Feifei, and I am a pharmacist."
Hao Jianjun then added, "I am Hao Jianjun, and I am an alchemist." Their simple and clear introduction gave us a preliminary understanding of them.
Next, we began asking questions, mainly focusing on their professional skills, experience, and future plans.
Jiang Feifei and Hao Jianjun both performed exceptionally well, answering questions fluently and demonstrating solid professional knowledge and rich practical experience.
After the interviews, I and several other decision-makers discussed the matter briefly. We were very satisfied with both candidates, but the final selection would require considering various factors.
While waiting for the results, I chatted with Jiang Feifei and Hao Jianjun to learn more about their thoughts and expectations. This exchange gave me a deeper understanding of them and filled me with anticipation for our future cooperation.
During our conversation, Jiang Feifei mentioned her interest in developing new types of elixirs, which greatly interested me. I shared some of my insights into alchemy, which she listened to with great interest, occasionally asking insightful questions, which made me appreciate her professional expertise even more.
Hao Jianjun then discussed his research on ancient alchemy, believing that the wisdom of the ancients is worth learning from and that more possibilities can be explored from it. This view was echoed by Sikong Feng, and the two engaged in a lively discussion.
Finally, we made our decision. I stood up, smiled, and announced, "After discussion, we have decided to invite Jiang Feifei and Hao Jianjun to join our team. We believe your professional skills and innovative spirit will bring us even more surprises."
Upon hearing the news, Jiang Feifei and Hao Jianjun smiled with delight, expressing their great anticipation of working with us.
Afterwards, we discussed our upcoming work plan. Everyone shared their opinions, creating a lively and harmonious atmosphere. In this dynamic team, I saw limitless possibilities for the future and was filled with anticipation for the adventure we were about to embark on.
