The girl stood in front of the long stairs leading to the basement.

The backlight made her expression look clearer, and even every strand of hair looked arrogant.

So the slow and measured self-introduction seemed quite serious, and Qian Yilai couldn't help but prick up his ears:

"Remember, my name is..."

"Let's talk about it after I officially join the company."

-

It’s Ye Kong.

She interrupted without looking up.

While flipping through the information of the next interviewee, he said casually, "If you are not a formal employee, there is no need to register your real name."

After a pause, she said sincerely, "I'm too lazy to remember."

Girl: "..."

She choked back the lines she had prepared, and her twin ponytails trembled with anger. It took her a long while before she rushed upstairs in a rage.

It was not until the girl's footsteps disappeared that Qu Wu finally burst into laughter: "She wants to have privileges here at Eleven - even if Yuan Ye herself comes, she is not qualified. Who does she think she is?"

Ye Kong scratched his ears because of the noise, and said seriously: "If she really wants to join us, I really welcome her."

The smile on Qu Wu’s face disappeared.

Qian Yilai, who had been confused the whole time, has now become accustomed to this feeling of being lonely and ignorant.

Before the next interviewer came in, he looked at Ye Kong deeply and said, "You seem to have a lot of unknown stories."

"Just living a normal life."

Ye Kong said: "Just walk the path you want to walk and do what you like. Even if there are stories, they are all the same and no different from others."

Qian Yilai raised his eyes and looked past Ye Kong who was flipping through papers, and he saw Qu Wu's eyes.

The look that fell on Ye Kong seemed both gentle and complicated.

Noticing his gaze, Qu Wu looked up, and in an instant his eyes became much colder. He raised his eyebrows provocatively at him, as if asking, "What are you looking at?"

Qian Yilai: ...

·

When the interview finally ended, it was already evening and time for dinner.

Qu Wu ordered takeout, and the three of them, along with Lin Xinzhou who came uninvited, had a meal together in the empty and spacious store.

"I haven't seen Miss Lin much these days."

At the dinner table, Qu Wu teased Lin Xinzhou, "You can't hold your position so soon?"

"What position? A dog position?" Lin Xinzhou complained, "I feel like I've done a very important job, and there are people lining up to get me fired so they can take over..."

She paused, looked up at Qu Wu, and smiled maliciously: "Could it be that you are the one waiting to be promoted?"

Ye Kong did not participate in the topic.

She only glanced at Lin Xinzhou's guitar bag and asked her, "Practicing?"

"Yes, I've been very busy lately." Lin Xinzhou said, "Your sister... well, not sister, but that irresponsible and annoying Ye Baozhu, suddenly ran away abroad in the middle of practice, forcing me to find another regular pianist. She has been guarding the music department like a grandson these days."

She did look a little haggard. She hadn't been anywhere, but she looked exhausted. She was only very energetic when she was complaining: "You don't know, these days people have been bashing me on the forum, saying that I was cosplaying as a sleazy man hunting for beauties at the entrance of the music school, and that I would rush up to chat up anyone with a musical instrument with green eyes. Some people even said that I was a lesbian and wanted to be Aquaman. There are actually more than 300 floors of discussion about my sexual orientation on the forum! Do you think this is reasonable?!"

She didn't even bother eating, and clapped her hands on the table. "Zhou Song, those bastards! They even moved the school post to Golden City and made fun of me! They are simply beasts!"

Ye Kong, who had experienced her stalking people like crazy, said: "With your character of wanting to follow someone until the end of time, it would be strange if people don't think you are perverted, right?"

Lin Xinzhou: …

Qu Wu laughed loudly, and the store was filled with a happy atmosphere.

After dinner, it was getting dark.

Ye Kong glanced at the time and felt like there was something he hadn't done, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

It was not until she returned home and lay in the garden enjoying the breeze that she suddenly remembered that she had not "met" Wen Can today.

In the past, it was usually Wen Can who called her first, but today, for some reason, there has been no news until now.

Ye Kong thought about it, then immediately took out his cell phone and made a video call.

About five seconds later, the other end picked up the phone.

The camera is in Wen Can’s study.

The soft light illuminated the peculiarly shaped hourglass on the bookcase and the man's calm face.

He glanced at the camera and didn't speak immediately.

Amid the noisy background, Wen Can raised his index finger and made a "shut up" gesture to her.

Ye Kong was stunned for a moment and swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

All I could hear was the faint sound of quarreling coming from the other side.

"What do you mean? You want to fire me for such a small matter? Yusheng has been working in our Xingfei Painting for so many years. Even if he has no merits, he has worked hard, right?"

"Plagiarism is plagiarism! No amount of hard work can make up for this one mistake! Anyway, I will never work with a plagiarist!"

"The matter hasn't been leaked yet, and not many people know about it. If you insist on making such a big fuss, what will we say when the players come and ask us why the artist was replaced?"

"Do you really think she's the only artist in the world? And it's my credit that the incident didn't get out of hand! If I hadn't played another game and recognized it in time, once her draft was finalized and we released the illustration, do you think the players wouldn't be able to find it out?"

"That game is a niche game to begin with. There are probably less than 10,000 people who have played it. How could it be such a coincidence..."

"You underestimate our customers. Forget about 10,000. Even if there are only 10 people who have played with us, they can find them out for you!"

The female voice sounded quite angry: "And what's your attitude? You can pretend that nothing happened if the players can't find out? With this fluke mentality, you still dare to say that you are the management of Xingfei? Our company's rule has always been to produce and cultivate games as if they were our own children, and to respect and serve customers as if they were our parents. Can you have this kind of fluke mentality towards your son and your parents?"

"You! You are just making up stories!"

"You are the one who cannot distinguish between right and wrong, public and private!"

“…Okay! Even if you’re right! You want to close Yusheng, but you should at least leave some time for the art team, right? If you fire her right away, what about the new version and new characters that will be released next month? Who will take over?!”

"I told you, she's not the only good painter in the world!"

"Then go find him! Yusheng now has 5 million fans, so anything he draws will get traffic!"

“Haha,” the woman sneered, “Isn’t it just an internet celebrity painter? I have four of them here!”

There was a loud slap on the table.

It sounded like she slammed her phone down on the table.

"In this age where anything can form a circle, every circle has its own 'Four Beauties'. I just happened to check recently and found that hand-drawing circles also have them."

The female voice said leisurely, "Netizens call them the Four Giants, each of them has millions of fans. Among them, there is one called Eleven, who has one million more fans than Yusheng."

There was a hint of sneer in her voice: "How are they? Do you think they can do it?"
