My Life with Narration-Chapter 390 - 386: Feeding Laxatives
Su Qing never expected that the words he just said would be immediately used by Wang Xing, and in such a literal sense.
So the narrator’s hints are that spot on, huh? I had obviously tried to make amends afterward, but did it really matter at all? Fine, that makes perfect sense.
As for Wang Xing, if he were normal, he wouldn’t be himself. From this angle, it makes absolute sense for him to come over late at night and give him a piece of his mind.
The next day, Su Qing brought Shen Yi and Dahuang to the office as usual to clock in. Things were quiet at the police station lately, at least no one was contacting him, and he was quite happy with this leisure. Days like these were rare.
Every day, he would clock in at the office and casually take some photos of Dahuang to maintain his updates. However, he wasn’t quite satisfied with the photos, so the updates kept being postponed.
Luckily, since he changed his style, he wasn’t the kind of prolific blogger like a sow anymore, plus he wasn’t short of money these days, so updates were more at his own pace. He couldn’t just post low-quality content. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
At noon, Shen Yi gathered the department managers for a meeting to set goals and tasks, as the short October 1st holiday was just a few days away.
All departments needed to report on their situation, and in the afternoon, Deng Jie would take her to meet a client.
Logically, as the driver-slash-secretary, he should be with the boss throughout such meetings.
But, although he was called a secretary, he was more like an assistant. He didn’t understand business at all, so he hardly got involved.
Shen Yi was aware of this and never pushed him.
Doing business depends on talent. Some people are naturally suited for it, while others won’t learn even with hands-on guidance.
Just look at Shen Yi, the landlady, and Tang Nan.
Among them, Shen Yi was undoubtedly the backbone of the company, having built it from scratch. As for the landlady, she really had no talent for business; her family was already a local real estate tycoon in Jiang City. If kids from such families don’t have business talent, how could he?
Having a clear understanding of one’s own capabilities, especially after receiving the narrator’s hints, Su Qing knew he wasn’t suited for a business path. He was better off earning some money using his own unique skills, without competing for a livelihood in fields where he didn’t excel—it was an easy way to choke.
"Su Qing, you’re okay? You gave me a scare!" During the lunch break, as soon as he came out, Lin Miaomiao spoke impulsively.
"What could be wrong with me?" Su Qing asked with some confusion.
In response, Lin Miaomiao quietly explained, "I went to Wang Xing’s place yesterday and saw someone I thought was you, but when I asked Wang Xing, he said it wasn’t and mentioned that he hadn’t been in touch with you for a long time, saying you might..."
"Might what?"
"Might... be dead!"
Su Qing: ...
Sun Mumu: o(*≧▽≦)ツ┏━┓
"I like this ’simple-minded’ personality, it matches well with Miaomiao, haha!"
Sun Mumu quite appreciated Wang Xing’s character, mainly because she already had a good impression of him.
Of course, seeing Lin Miaomiao getting happier as time passed was also a factor. She felt that although Wang Xing seemed a bit dull, at least he wasn’t malicious. Being simple-minded was fine; since Miaomiao wasn’t particularly bright either, neither of them would get bullied.
Speaking of which, Wang Xing even had a natural advantage; he was the one who saved Miaomiao when she was in danger. The hero-rescues-beauty storyline might be clichéd, but it’s undeniably effective!
Women just fall for that.
Soon, the group’s takeout arrived: two portions of braised chicken and one pork leg rice. While they were thrifty elsewhere, they never skimmed on food.
They saved where they should and spent where they should. Even Lin Miaomiao was the same; she spent most of her salary on food.
"Hmm? Where’s Dahuang? How come I didn’t see him?" Sun Mumu asked.
Hearing this, Su Qing didn’t even stop his eating: "Don’t worry about him. You know how he is; would he let himself go hungry?"
"Right, he’s probably off somewhere getting free food and drinks from some department!" Sun Mumu nodded in deep agreement.
Since Dahuang came to the company, he had become the social butterfly of all departments, mixing well everywhere from the staff’s snacks to chicken drumsticks at lunch. There was nothing he couldn’t get.
Some employees liked him so much they’d even bring him special treats from home just to get a chance to pet him more.
After all, the company had many girls, and even with a girl stretching out her long, black silk-clad legs, in the fierce competition, without treats, Dahuang wouldn’t let you pet him for long.
Now, none of the company veterans didn’t know that Dahuang was a greedy and lecherous dog.
Especially old Wang, ever since Dahuang helped him win over Sister Feng, he treated Dahuang like royalty. When Dahuang went to his office, he got the royal treatment.
"Dahuang is good, but he doesn’t stick around here much. He keeps running around. Cats are more obedient," Lin Miaomiao said from the side.
Sun Mumu nodded in agreement.
But ever since Shen Yi gave an order, Bai Hao stopped bringing the cat to the company, having realized that path was no longer viable.
At this moment, a narrator’s hint sounded in Su Qing’s mind.
[Bai Hao took Dahuang to the restroom and gave him a chicken leg coated with laxatives, using Dahuang’s greediness to vent his dissatisfaction and achieve his revenge on you.]
Hearing this, Su Qing’s eyes widened immediately. Then he stood up with a start and ran towards the company restroom.
Meanwhile, in the company’s public restroom, Bai Hao was looking darkly at Dahuang, "Eat up, hurry up and eat, then get out!"
At this moment, Dahuang was happily tearing into the chicken leg.
"Woof woof" [Kid, you’re quite something. The big guy will look after you in the future!]
Watching Dahuang devour the food, Bai Hao felt a sense of revenge satisfaction.
Now, during the company’s lunch break, there were no cameras in the restroom. No one would be able to trace it back to him later.
Just as he was imagining Dahuang making a mess everywhere, causing Su Qing, the dog owner, embarrassment, the restroom door was suddenly kicked open with a bang.
The noise startled both the man and the dog inside.
The person who came in was none other than Su Qing who had received the narrator’s hint.
At this moment, Su Qing’s eyes were rarely so full of fury. He couldn’t remember the last time he was this angry.
As soon as he entered, he saw the half-eaten chicken leg. Without a word, he kicked the chicken leg off the floor.
"Stop eating it, eat it and you’ll die!"
His shout scared Dahuang into shrinking back to the corner. Then, he quickly turned around and grabbed Bai Hao by the collar, growling, "What are you doing?"
"Uh... I... I wasn’t doing anything!" Bai Hao was also startled by the sudden situation, and already feeling guilty, his voice trembled.
"Nothing? What did you give him to eat?"
Su Qing pointed to the stuff on the ground and shouted.
"N-no, it’s not me..."
"Not you or who, then? You bluffing? You little punk, you’re quite something!" Su Qing shouted.
Following a brief moment of stunned silence, Bai Hao’s mind raced.
"I really didn’t know, Brother Su. What’s wrong with you?"
Seeing he still wouldn’t admit it, Su Qing laughed.
"Fine, alright, won’t admit it, huh? Just wait and explain it to the police!"
