《...》Chapter 148: There's a Virus in Here
Advertisement
The documents were too heavy putting a lot of pressure on Ye Xiaoxing's elbows, but then thinking about being able to have fun at the Qi Lin Resort, she looked at the pile in her arms and gritted her teeth in resignation.
"Since there are so many files, I guess I won't be heading out for lunch. Didn't you say you will treat me for lunch?" Even Ye Xiaoxing did not stand on ceremony with Dai Yiran.
Dai Yiran nodded. "What do you want to eat? I'll order some take-out."
"Sushi then, since I can eat while working and it's convenient too," Ye Xiaoxing ordered.
Dai Yiran laughed sarcastically to herself. What? Convenient? Ye Xiaoxing was just taking advantage of her.
She just wanted whatever that was the most expensive.
Nonetheless, she really did not mind this small sum of money. Moreover, Ye Xiaoxing did not have much foresight and she looked exceptionally ugly while eating.
When Lu Man returned from Han Zhuoli's office, she saw Ye Xiaoxing on the computer, working hard. Her desk was piled with the files that were originally on Dai Yiran's desk. Lu Man could not help but laugh a little.
Indeed, one was willing to hit, and the other was willing to get hit.
As expected, when office hours were up, Dai Yiran finished her work on time.
However, in a blink of an eye, it was going to be Thursday tomorrow. They had to submit the proposal on Du Lin's case by tomorrow afternoon latest, yet Dai Yiran still had not done much.
Could it be that Dai Yiran really wanted to compete fairly, and she had misjudged Dai Yiran?
Lu Man eyebrows scrunched up slightly. If Dai Yiran wanted to do anything, today or tomorrow morning was her last chance.

Just like that, in a blink of an eye, it was Thursday.
In the morning, Ye Xiaoxing could not help but look towards Lu Man frequently, while Dai Yiran occasionally looked in her direction slyly.
It was then that Lu Man knew that Dai Yiran was up to no good.
Around noon, Lu Man saw Dai Yiran fidgeting subconsciously and immediately knew that they were planning to execute their plan at noon.
The corner of Lu Man's lips quirked up. She wasn't rushing to leave and was still working on her computer.
However, Dai Yiran and Ye Xiaoxing were both hungry. They wondered, "Exactly when will Lu Man leave?"
What was the point of pretending to be hardworking now!
After almost everyone had left the office, Lu Man closed the encrypted file and switched off her computer.
By the side, Dai Yiran saw her cautious behavior, and huffed obnoxiously.
Did she think that would work?
She will kick Lu Man out of this company today!
Then, Lu Man looked around her desk and checked it, as if there might be something hidden quietly in a corner.
Dai Yiran's heart skipped a little and thought that thankfully she could keep her expression neutral, if not Lu Man might really figure something out.
Yet who knew that Lu Man would actually be that cautious.
Once Lu Man felt that everything was fine, she walked out of the office slowly.
Taking advantage that there was no one around, she went to Han Zhuoli's office.
Ye Xiaoxing was looking about at the entrance of the office. When she saw that Lu Man had gone far ahead, she then walked back, rubbing her empty stomach. "Does she really have that much work to do? She's only been here for a few days, yet she's always the last one to leave for lunch, as if she's really passionate about her job or something. Who's she putting up this show for?"

Dai Yiran snickered a little. Wasn't Ye Xiaoxing the one who gave Lu Man all those work?
Ye Xiaoxing seemed to have realized that and rubbed her stomach, her tone changed. "I'm starving, let's order something quickly."
"We'll eat after we finish our work." Dai Yiran took out a pen drive from her bag and handed it over to Ye Xiaoxing. "Go and insert this into Lu Man's computer CPU."
Seeing it, Ye Xiaoxing's expression changed immediately. "What's this?"
"What are you afraid of? There's a virus in here. Once she switches on her computer, the files in her computer will immediately be sent to mine while her computer will get a virus attack, and everything on it will be deleted." Dai Yiran was smug and pleased with herself. As she thought about how Lu Man's hard work of all these days would dissolve into nothing and how all her work would go down the drain, it made her extremely happy.

The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.
