Just as Xia Ning was about to reprimand him, Qin Xun stopped and pointed to the surveillance camera on the ceiling.
"Be careful, the walls have ears. There's no surveillance here," he said.
Xia Ning: "..."
She looked up at the camera and asked, "But can't it see us from this position?"
Qin Xun's face revealed a mysterious smile.
"On my second day at the company, I took the opportunity while helping the cleaning lady clean spider webs to secretly adjust the surveillance camera's position."
He drew an imaginary line beside him.
"From here onwards, it's a blind spot for surveillance.
It's my territory! Today, I'll let you use it!" Qin Xun said, looking at Xia Ning with a smile.
"Now you can eat without worries!"
Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun in silence for a moment, then suddenly smiled lightly. However, her entire demeanor seemed to become much colder. She finished the two pieces of chocolate, and her complexion improved significantly.
But she saw Qin Xun open his phone and log into a game, dominating the battlefield inside.
With a smile on her face, she said softly, "You're quite skilled!"
Qin Xun glanced at her while operating his phone. "After I finish this round, want me to help you rank up?"
Xia Ning: ".... Thank you, but I don't need it."
Qin Xun: "Then watch out for me, and next time, I'll watch for you."
Xia Ning remained silent for a moment. "...Alright."
She sat in front of her computer desk, no longer interested in watching wild boars running and fighting. She discreetly glanced at Qin Xun, who kept achieving triple kills, quadruple kills, and even pentakills. Her expression became increasingly grim.
An hour passed.
When Qin Xun won another game, Xia Ning finally couldn't help but ask, "Don't you feel guilty for slacking off like this?"
Qin Xun turned to look at Xia Ning, remembering how openly she had slacked off on her first day at work, which he found somewhat amusing.
"How can such words come out of your mouth?"
he retorted, putting down his phone with a cold snort.
"This company only pays me 2000 yuan a month, and doesn't even provide meals or accommodation," Qin Xun muttered.
"How can this damn boss not feel guilty?"
"In just half a month, I've written 18 PPT presentations!" he continued. "If it weren't for needing to smoothly graduate with an internship certificate, would I let him exploit me like this?"
Hearing "damn boss," Xia Ning's expression turned sour. Then, upon hearing "18 PPT presentations," she couldn't help but feel surprised.
18 PPT presentations?
In half a month?
With 4 days of vacation subtracted, that leaves only 11 days. This guy slacks off at work all the time; expecting him to work overtime during his days off is definitely impossible! That means he has to write one to two presentations per day on average?
She thought about how Cheng Wan had proudly brought her to Qin Xun's side, probably regarding him as an exemplary employee. Therefore, the PPT presentations he wrote must be up to standard.
She knew Cheng Wan was someone who paid attention to details.
To put it bluntly, she's nitpicking.
It's urgent!
Ordinary PPT presentations don't meet her standards!
Is Qin Xun's level of writing PPT presentations really that high?
Qin Xun looked at Xia Ning, who remained silent.
"Don't you believe me?" he asked.
Xia Ning shook her head. She truly thought he was exaggerating. No one could consistently produce high-quality PPT presentations while slacking off all day.
Qin Xun emphasized his words, "I'm telling you, that damn boss really only pays me 2000 yuan!"
Xia Ning: "???!!!"
Their conversation was completely off-track. Huh? How many times has this guy called me 'damn boss' now? What kind of manners is that?
She looked at Qin Xun, who was indignant, and asked.
She looked at the indignant Qin Xun and asked, "If you're so good at writing PPT presentations, why don't you find a specialized PPT service online? You could sell one presentation for four or five hundred yuan. Why stay in this... crappy company?"
Qin Xun laughed, feeling like he had found a kindred spirit. "You also think this company is crappy!"
Xia Ning: "..."
Today, she felt more speechless than she had ever been in her entire life.
She watched as Qin Xun picked up the thermos on the table, opened the lid, and leisurely took a sip of water, resembling an old veteran.
"It's not that I don't want to change jobs, but there are risks," he explained. "At my first internship company, on my seventh day of earnest work, there was a huge fire. The boss ended up being held criminally responsible and went to jail!"
"At the second company, on my seventh day of even more earnest work, the boss got into a fatal car accident."
"No one was paid, so I had to make a run for it."
"This is the third company I've interned at, and I've been here for 15 days," Qin Xun continued. "In another 15 days, Cheng Jie will give me my internship certificate."
"Out of the three companies, only this one made it past the seventh day. This boss has some tough luck!" he remarked.
Xia Ning stared at Qin Xun in astonishment. She remembered half a month ago when she and her friends went on an adventure in the wilderness and encountered a wolf pack. Although there were no casualties, she was scared enough to spend a few days recovering in the hospital. This delay caused her to miss her return to the country and the company's opening.
Could it be... this guy's doing?
Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun, a tantalizing smile playing on her lips. "Perhaps... the boss of this company isn't as lucky as you think."
Qin Xun raised an eyebrow, turning to look at her.
"Hey! You can't say that! We can't indulge in feudal superstitions!" Qin Xun retorted. "I pray every day now for the boss of the company to live a long and healthy life! After all, that's my internship certificate."
He paused for a moment, looking at Xia Ning's somewhat dazzling face.
He lowered his voice and explained mysteriously,
"Do you know? The reason why the boss of this company is still alive and well, without any mishaps, is because..."
Xia Ning, influenced by his mysterious demeanor, leaned in slightly and whispered,
"Because of what?"
Qin Xun glanced around, seeing that there was no one nearby, then smiled and said,
"It's all because of my diligent slacking off these days."
"I figure, the harder I work, the more the boss exploits me," he continued.
"And the more he exploits me, the greater the retribution he'll face."
Pausing for a moment, he spoke with a righteous expression on his face.
"So, it's not that I want to slack off," Qin Xun continued.
"It's that if they don't let me slack off at work, the boss of this company will have to answer for it. That damn guy is definitely going to die a miserable death."
Xia Ning: "???"
"So... should the boss of this company... thank you for your... kindness?" Xia Ning asked hesitantly.
Qin Xun waved his hand lightly, speaking with an indifferent expression. "I often find myself moved by my own kindness."
Xia Ning: "..."
She quietly watched Qin Xun for a while, then suddenly smiled faintly. In her heart, she sentenced him to death.
She couldn't be bothered to deal with him anymore. Turning around, she sat back at her computer, logged into her email, and opened a message. She downloaded a video and played it.
In the video, a yellow lemon dropped into ice water and instantly shattered into pieces.
This was an advertisement for lemon water.
She was studying.
At that moment, Qin Xun's voice echoed in her ears, "You can watch it confidently! I'll watch it for you!"
Xia Ning: "..."
"Thank you!" she said.
Qin Xun: "No need! We're all on the same team!"
He watched Xia Ning watch the video, feeling happy.
Compared to her, was he really considered a slacking expert?
On his first day, he worked earnestly for half a day before starting to slack off in the afternoon, and throughout the whole process, he was nervous and cautious.
Look at this girl, on her first day of work, her first task is to slack off. She really treats the company like her own home! Slack off, slack off...
Morning quickly passed.
Slack off, slack off...
Afternoon also swiftly passed.
In the blink of an eye, it was six o'clock in the afternoon!
One by one, the thirty or so people in the office began packing up to leave for the day. Five or
six minutes later, almost everyone had left.
Xia Ning closed her email and turned to glance at Qin Xun, surprised to see him still watching anime on his phone.
"Aren't you leaving?" she asked.
Suddenly, she realized, "You must be trying to mooch off the company's Wi-Fi again!"
Qin Xun closed his phone, turned to look at Xia Ning with a faint smile.
"It's all about the mindset!"
"The mindset is set!"
He slowly placed his hands on the keyboard, his expression becoming serious, his eyebrows slightly raised, appearing extremely focused.
"While you slack off, you still have to get things done."
"Otherwise, this slacking off won't last long."
Xia Ning watched him with some confusion as he put on this mysterious act.
Suddenly!
Qin Xun's expression froze.
His eyes stared fixedly at the computer screen, his fingers swiftly typing on the keyboard, leaving behind afterimages.
The rapid tapping on the keyboard sounded like firecrackers going off, startling Xia Ning so much that her mouth hung wide open.
