Chapter 224: Signing Bonus
The familiar sound of eggshells cracking echoed, and in Pepe’s leisurely voice came from within.
"Oh, you’re pretty on time. How? Are you really eager for a reward from your sister? Have you decided? Will you be bound? Or..."
The seductive voice came from inside, and as the door opened, and Pepe’s appearance had changed, her upper body had a human face, and her chest and abdomen were also human-like. Green scales wrapped around her skin, while the lower half was the familiar snake tail. It looked like a half-human, half-snake form.
"You can joke too." Shen Yu teased as he glanced at En Pei Pei.
She twisted her neck, slithering along the ground, gazing at Shen Yu for a while, constantly complimenting Aya.
"Shen Yu. Oh, Shen Yu, you really are a genius. Two deals signed in just two days. You have the smell of a mouse on you, and if you could return from him, that means you probably got him too. With another deal from me, kid. You’re about to be promoted soon. Promotion after three days on the job? Wow, he’s practically the king of sales."
"What exactly do you want to say?"
Shen Yu felt something was off with Impei Pei today. Instead of rushing to ask his own questions, he looked at Impei Pei with suspicion.
"It’s nothing. I just feel empty here. Shen Yu, you have great potential. How about moving in with me from now on? What do you think?"
S S S S S.
A long tongue flicked out as In Pei Pei’s snake scales on her upper body slowly faded away. Her waist and hips twisted into a seductive S curve, and her enchanting face bloomed with a smile. The meaning crystal clear.
"I’m not interested in becoming Su Xian. T C H Dog Man. I’m leaving."
Rejected by Shen Yu, and Pepe wasn’t angry. She flicked her tail and started to walk back inside.
Seeing her about to leave, Shen Yu finally called out, "Let me ask you a few questions."
"Say it."
"You said you need nutrition, but I see you’re always hatching snake eggs. Why do you need so many eggs?"
"None of your business."
"Are they for the board?"
Bang!
With that, and Pei Pei slammed the door shut without answering.
Foxtail.Midnight Boys Dormitory.
Shen Yu looked at the two women in Inlan’s room, her mouth twitching.
One was Yang Hua, whom she had seen before. The other, Yanning. Now there was herself too.
Good heavens! Shen Yu hides three women in one room. This guy is playing big.
While she suspiciously observed the two women, when Lon noticed that her hips seemed to have tightened a little, her ponytail seemed to shrink slightly.
"Hmm. Wait. Could it be creak?"
As she pondered, the door to the boys’ dormitory opened, and Shen Yu walked in with a calm expression.
"Shen Yu, Shen Yu."
Upon seeing Shen Yu enter, both Yening and Yang Hua looked delighted.
Shen Yu smiled and glanced at Wenlan, pointing to a bed.
"With your IQ, you should have guessed by now why I brought you into the boys’ dorm, right?"
"Hmm. Breaking company rules can ease mutations, right?"
"That’s right. This is my way of repaying your help."
Shen Yu raised his chin.
When Lan stared at him, her expression flickering.
Ding, goddess, when Lan’s favorability 111, Current favorability, 40 points.
After hearing the system’s prompt in his ear, Shen Yu spoke first,
"I can feel that the next signing is going to be even more dangerous, so fighting each other will only get us killed faster. Wolf faction, fox faction, both have clues to the upper levels. Mo Xian and the others, I don’t trust them, so I’ve decided to cooperate with you."
"Wen Lan, you’re not an original member of the Fat Team, right?"
Shen Yu’s calm gaze made Wenlan frown, despite his composed expression, she felt like he had seen right through everything.
"Hmm. I came here with a purpose. The cooperation you’re talking about. I have no objections. But Mo Shen and Lang Ling Xue as bodies, you’d better keep them for me. That way, we can maintain our maximum combat power."
"Ha! You think why didn’t I kill them in the elevator just now?"
Shen Yu gave a strange smile, and when Lan immediately felt a chill down her spine.
"You, you mean you want to use them to trigger other clients’ traps?"
"Exactly. The seventh floor. There’s a resident who’s hard to deal with, but if we had Mo Xian’s abilities, we might be able to uncover his opportunity for murder, you-you didn’t kill him just to use him. Offending you is truly terrifying."
Wen Lon muttered with dissatisfaction, and Shen Yu smiled.
"Anyway, let’s wait until tomorrow. This instance might be more than just an escape."
With a wave of his hand, Shen Yu bid farewell to the people in the dorm and returned to the girl’s dorm.
Night slowly deepened.
The next day, finally, the third day of the instance arrived.
This day, just like before, everyone gathered in the cafeteria for breakfast and then took the elevator to the third floor.
The difference was that perhaps because of the signing last night, as soon as they arrived at their desks this morning, Lin Wan opened the office door and strutted over to a landside.
"You did well last night. Come to my room. I need to tell you something."
T C H.
Taking the order for Mr. Tree from Yanning.
Shen Yu followed into the office, and naturally, the system’s notification sound rang in his ears.
Ding. Goddess Lin Wan’s affection level 25. Current total affection level 61 points.
Ding. Goddess Lin Yao’s affection level 10. Current total affection level 30 points.
TSK. This is sales. As long as you sign the contract, your superiors will definitely increase your affection level.
After grumbling inwardly, Shen Yu placed the order on the desk.
Lin Wan didn’t even glance at the order. Her legs crossed and placed on the desk. Her body leaning back in the chair. Her plump figure tightly wrapped in the chongsam, exuding charm and allure.
"What’s the matter? I already told you I’d reward you. Aren’t you going to do something yourself?"
Lin Wan rolled her eyes at Shen Yu, who shrugged.
"Captain Lin, I’m not that kind of person."
"Oh, you’re really holding back? You don’t actually think you’ll marry that little Yang and live a happy life, right?"
"Ah, I don’t have such thoughts. I just want to sign the contract. I just want to climb up."
"Climb up?"
It seemed like Lin Wan found this topic interesting and immediately kicked her legs and stood up from the chair.
"Oh, you want to climb up too?"
Ding! Goddess Lin wants affection level three. Current total affection level 64 points.
"Tell me, why do you want to climb up?"
"I don’t want to be eaten by others. That’s all."
"Good. I like this kind of reckless person, someone who is climbing up no matter what. Today, I’m in a good mood. I can let you take the initiative."
"Are you sure you don’t want to try, Captain Lin?"
"Compared to these rewards, I want something more substantial."
"Oh, like what?"
"For example, a pig, or a cow, or a horse."
"You, what do you want to do?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan’s face changed suddenly, and Shen Yu nonchalantly found a corner and sat down, counting his fingers carefully.
"Captain Lin, if I’m not mistaken, the number of contracts signed by the team members is the key to your promotion, right? I’ve already signed two contracts. You told me before that I need to sign three in a week. I just want to know if I manage to sign the third contract now, will you and I become part of the new management?"
Shen Yu’s eyes flickered with a strange light, and Lin Wan stared at him for a while, her eyes squinting.
"How do you know so much? Did that girl in Pei Pei tell you?"
"You can say so."
T C H.
"That blabbermouth. That’s right. As long as you sign one more contract. I will become part of the new management, and you will sit in the fox position. Do you know? I’ve wanted that position for a long time. Shen Yu, if you help me complete this, I don’t mind letting you not treat me like a person for once."
Lin Wan licked her lips, her eyes filled with madness.
Shen Yu looked at her for a long time before waving his hand.
"No need, Captain Lin. I still say, give me something that can satisfy in Pepe’s appetite today. You and I both can rise."
"You, this guy, are you already so familiar with that bitch?"
There was a hint of resentment in her words.
Lin Wan stared at Shen Yu for a long time before decisively walking into the bathroom.
Through the frosted glass, one could vaguely see Lin Huan lying on the floor, slowly curling into a beastly form. One of her paws tightly gripped her own tail, and with a s easy sound, blood mist sprayed out from the bathroom.
Pff, pff!
Blood droplets began to slide down the glass surface.
Huff, huff, huf, huff, huff, huff.
Inside the bathroom came a series of rapid breathing sounds, and Lin Wan, with a pale face, walked out. In her hand, she held a pure white fox tail, weakly offering it to Shen Yu.
"Here, take it. Today, sign the third contract for me."
T.S.K.
"I have to say, Captain Lin, you really go all out."
Disdainfully, Shen Yu took the bloody fox tail. His eyes showing no surprise.
The system already said Lin Wan is a woman who will stop at nothing for profit. As long as she can rise up.
Huff, huff, huff.
"As long as I can be promoted today, as long as I can become an evolved being, everything is worth it. Shen Yu, don’t disappoint my expectations for you. Work hard. We’ll meet up there in the future."
Who, who, who?
Losing the foxtail, Lin Wan slumped in the chair, her entire being lacking any light in her eyes.
Shen Yu gave her a meaningful glance before quickly walking out of the office.
He hid the fox tail inside his coat, and after leaving the office, he realised that the door of the neighbouring Wolf Tribe office was also open.
With Lingyao seemingly glancing over here on purpose, as if Anlan had noticed, Lin Yao furrowed her brow and immediately stamped her foot at Mo Xian and the others.
"Quick, everyone, go and dance the sales dance with Old Fu. Hurry up! A bunch of useless fools can’t even close one deal."
Dad dead day. Dot day day.
In the Wolf Tribe’s office area, because they failed to close a deal yesterday, Mo Shen and the others still had to follow Ulfu and dance the sales dance.
With their eyes closed, standing on one leg and hopping, they chanted something about closing deals. Their movements looking somewhat ridiculous.
On the other hand, in landside, everyone just stood around doing nothing, watching emotion and the others perform. Their faces awkward.
The difference.
This is the difference.
One side is the sales champion. The other side has nothing.
"Damn. Damn. I didn’t use a single time jump today. I don’t believe you can steal this deal from me. I’m long. I’m sticking with you today."
A moment later, after the sales dance ended, Mo Shen looked resentfully toward the Jochi team direction, and then suddenly realised that the core of the team and Lon-he was already gone.
"Damn, damn! While I was dancing, he ran out on Lon."
Late realisation hit, and Mo Shen rushed toward the elevator in front of room 502, fifth floor.
"Miss Pei Pei, I’m here to deliver your meal."
Knock, knock, knock.
After knocking on the door of room 502, a snake’s tail stretched out from behind the door, curling into a circle on the floor.
The tail flicked at a long, and he understood, placing the fox tail on the snake’s coil.
S S S.
The snake’s body immediately straightened, pulling the fox tail inside the room.
And Lon distinctly heard a surprised "A"
Then, Kah Kah Kah Kah Ka.
The familiar cracking shell sound echoed, and this time, the door of room 502 fully opened.
What greeted his eyes wasn’t a floor covered in something like white goo, but clean tiles.
The room shimmered with orange light, and on the living room sofa lay a dense cluster of small white eggs.
And Pepe, with a rosy face, was lying on the snake eggs. Her entire snake body now completely transformed into a human shape, twisting in an S curve. Like an old hen, she warmed the snake eggs beneath her. Her face filled with love.
She stayed like that for quite some time, then reluctantly gazed at the snake eggs, her skin covered in snake scales, trembling before she climbed out the sofa.
"Come here," she called out irritably to Shen Yu, who hesitated but did not enter.
T C H.
"What a coward! Even if I give it to you, you wouldn’t dare to eat it. Here, take it."
