Gu Mengmeng’s mind was in a heightened state of exhilaration and was pletely ignorant of anything else. Even when the employment contract and work badge were finally in her hands, she still felt like she was in a dream.
Snake narrowed his eyes unhappily.
What’s so great about a lousy badge? Was it better to look at than him? Why was she staring at that badge and not at him?
He reached out and knocked Gu Mengmeng on the head. “Hey, wake up.”
Startled, Gu Mengmeng stared at Snake for a long while before saying dazedly. “Eh… why are you here?!”
Snake nearly puked blood in anger. He ground his teeth. “Who do you think drove you over here and acpanied you while you pleted the induction process?”
Gu Mengmeng smacked her own head and giggled. “Right, right right. Thank you Mister School Hunk for sending me.”
Snake cleared his throat and looked haughtily at Gu Mengmeng. “Do you think just one word of thanks is enough? Nothing more substantial?”
“Yes, yes, yes. I will treat Mister School Hunk to a meal. At the school cafeteria. Eat all you want.” Gu Mengmeng patted her chest generously.
Snake smirked and pinched her cheeks. “How ‘sincere’ of you.”
With her face still twisted in his pinch, Gu Mengmeng muttered. “What. I have just gotten the job and don’t have my wages yet…”
Snake laughed. “No need. Tonight… someone will be cooking for me. I am very much looking forward to it.”
Gu Mengmeng thought that this was pretty good. She could save some money.
Life was so beautiful…
Snake ignored her and headed out. Gu Mengmeng instinctively followed him into a lift.
She gazed at her own work badge again. She just couldn’t stop looking at it.
But…
Hmm? Didn’t she apply for a position in HR? What in the world was special assistant to the CEO? Was there an error in printing…
Gu Mengmeng was somewhat confused. She wanted to head back to clarify but found herself already in the lift with Snake.
Ding.
The doors to the lift opened to a clean and spacious office. High-level executives in business suits were seated along the four tables facing the lift entrance. They rose in unison when the lift door opened.
Gu Mengmeng tugged at Snake’s arm. “Eh, don’t fool around. This is my first day at work. Don’t make trouble for me. This job is very important to me!”
Snake smiled as he stroked her head. “Yeah, I know. This job is very important to you. That is why I have brought you here so that you can ingratiate yourself to your boss.”
With that, Snake dragged Gu Mengmeng out from the lift.
The high-level executives all bowed courteously as they greeted. “Good day, CEO.”
C… E…O?!
Gu Mengmeng stared in befuddlement at Snake, as her brain suddenly stopped working.
At this scene, the white fog once again thickened.
Gu Mengmeng knew that this meant the second episode was over.
Turning to look at the Beast Deity, she asked, “Ending the episode at such a suspenseful moment. Aren’t you worried about being beaten up?”
The Beast Deity rubbed his nose with a smile. “You have been asleep for a long while. If you don’t wake up soon, your two partners will go crazy.”
Gu Mengmeng could accept this explanation.
Standing up, she reached out an upturned palm towards him. “Dad, pocket money.”
The Beast Deity placed two hands on Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders and brought her before him. He gave her a light peck on the forehead before letting go. “The Kiss of the Beast Deity. A father’s love will always be with you.”
