Chapter 06: Getting 10k a Month, How is This Not a Good Thing?
Just then, Qin Xun suddenly shut his mouth. He forcefully moved the table, making loud banging noises while panting heavily.
"Whew, this is tiring us to death!"
Xia Ning was wondering why when she suddenly saw someone walk in. It was Cheng Wan.
She was surprised.
Does this guy have dog's ears?
He could hear her from that far?
As expected of a slacking expert!
Cheng Wan walked into the conference room. She nodded imperceptibly at Xia Ning, then said to Qin Xun:
"Qin Xun, come to the office with me for a bit. I have something to discuss with you."
Qin Xun nodded with a smile. "Alright Sis Cheng, I'll come after I finish with the tables."
Cheng Wan nodded and left the conference room.
Watching her disappearing figure, the smile on Qin Xun's face disappeared as he slightly frowned, murmuring:
"Strange..."
"Must be nothing good!"
Xia Ning watched Qin Xun with a smile without saying anything.
How is it nothing good?
You're getting converted to a formal employee.
You're getting 10k a month.
How is this not good news?
She turned around, hands propped on a table. The smile left her face as she instantly reverted to her aloof, icy beauty vibe.
However...you'll have to have the capability to earn this money!
Slacking King!
...
Cheng Wan's office.
Qin Xun had a shocked expression.
"Convert me to formal with a planner job and 10k monthly salary?"
Cheng Wan immediately gestured to shush him.
"Salaries are confidential. Don't tell others."
She looked at Qin Xun, beaming.
"The high-level executives are very satisfied with your recent performance, thinking you're outstanding in capabilities, attitude and character."
"Of course, very handsome too!"
"Hehe..."
"Hope you won't let the company down. Continue to excel on this platform and bring us one surprise after another!"
...
Dazed, Qin Xun returned to his seat in a trance.
Hands on his keyboard, he blankly stared for 5 whole minutes.
Sitting properly in front of her computer, Xia Ning acted like she was working diligently. But she kept glancing at Qin Xun from the corner of her eyes.
Seeing him spaced out, her mood improved somewhat.
A student not yet graduated, in his early 20s, got converted during his internship while his classmates were still interning.
And...he's getting 10k monthly!
No wonder he's dumbstruck by this windfall!
Money is indeed almighty!
Luckily, I have lots of money!
Money can motivate even ghosts!
It can also make the Slacking King change his bad habits!
I want to see, with 2k he could write a PPT in just over 10 minutes. With 10k, what level can this slacking ghost achieve?!
...
Qin Xun stared blankly at his screen looking stupefied.
Suddenly, he felt his arm bumped by something. Coming to, he turned to look.
It was another round chocolate.
Xia Ning smiled at him. "What's wrong? Not happy?"
Qin Xun unwrapped the chocolate and popped it in his mouth. He sighed, "I got converted."
"Congratulations, congratulations!" Xia Ning smiled and said. But noticing Qin Xun's unhappy expression, she found it strange.
"You don't look happy?"
Qin Xun looked around then whispered to Xia Ning:
"HR said it'll take effect next month. Next month I'll get the 10k monthly."
Xia Ning thought for a bit. What's the issue?
Isn't it normal for promotions and raises to start the next month at companies?
Qin Xun sighed again. "This company is terrible!"
"This d*mn owner is making empty promises!"
"What company converts people so casually like playing house? Do you think bosses create companies out of charity?"
Hearing him say "d*mn owner", Xia Ning's expression changed slightly. She squeezed out a smile. "What if it's real?"
Qin Xun laughed at her. "See, even you know it's just 'what if'."
"People go back on their word easily without signed black-and-white contracts. I won't believe it."
Xia Ning: "..."
What?
What do you mean even I know?
So in your eyes, I, a top graduate from a prestigious international university, represent the lowest human IQ?
How can he be like this?
Seeing no rabbits or eagles to hunt?
Qin Xun shook his head. Too lazy to think more, he took out his phone as usual and popped in his Bluetooth earpiece to happily rank up his game.
"Xiao Xia, help keep watch for me."
"I have this ominous feeling something will happen today."
Xia Ning's eyes widened in disbelief.
You already have ominous feelings yet you still want to play games and slack?!
Don't you know to keep a low profile?
Seeing Qin Xun immersed in getting triple, quadra, penta kills again, Xia Ning secretly took out her phone and leaned sideways to avoid his line of sight.
She found Cheng Wan on WeChat and edited a message:
"Fire Qin Xun immediately, right now!"
She never wanted to see Qin Xun again for the rest of her life. But her thumb hovered over the send button, suddenly recalling Qin Xun's abnormal typing speed yesterday.
She hesitated!
Glancing at the gaming Qin Xun, she saw he won another round.
Although she doesn't play games, she knows reaching top tier requires good brains.
Seeing Qin Xun turn and smile at her, she forced out an unwilling smile too. Qin Xun promptly started his next game.
Xia Ning took a deep breath and deleted her drafted message. She retyped:
"Have Qin Xun sign the contract immediately with pay effective today."
She put her phone down, suddenly feeling a bit tired and leaned into her chair.
Just then, she heard Qin Xun's voice.
"Xiao Xia, what's wrong? Low blood sugar again?"
Xia Ning turned to see Qin Xun quickly glance her way before turning back to his phone game.
She said helplessly, "No, I'm...mentally tired."
Hearing that, Qin Xun turned to look at Xia Ning, giving her a comforting smile before shifting his attention back to chasing enemies.
One axe blow each!
Triple kill!
Xia Ning was astonished.
Shouldn't he inquire and show some concern?
While Qin Xun was massacring his game, he could guess Xia Ning's bit of disappointment.
As someone fawned on by hordes of simps to inflate her ego, especially a superb beauty like Xia Ning.
Usually when she utters slightly pretentious words like "mentally tired", tons of simps would scramble to ask:
"What's wrong?"
"Any worries?"
"Let me buy you a milk tea!"
...
But Qin Xun never kowtows.
Also, if things developed into some workplace romance drama, that would be f*cking annoying!
Suddenly, Qin Xun slapped his phone onto the desk.
At the same time, Xia Ning's voice urgently called out:
"Someone's coming!"
Qin Xun glanced at Xia Ning, nodded satisfactorily and softly said:
"A child can be taught!"
Xia Ning: "..."
Soon, Cheng Wan walked over smiling at Qin Xun. "Qin Xun, you left too hurriedly just now. You haven't signed the contract yet!"
Qin Xun was shocked.
