Chapter 97: Chapter 96 Just Escaped from the Factory? (Subscribe Please)
Happiness Community, deep into a night of tranquil silence.
Little Landlady emerged from the dim light, looking alluring under the hazy moonlight.
“Little Landlady, you haven’t gone to bed yet?” Lin Chuan said in surprise, his mouth breaking into a smile.
“Not yet.”
Little Landlady replied with a smile, her hands clasped behind her back.
Her response was somewhat different from what Lin Chuan had expected.
After the afternoon, she hadn’t taken a nap or watched short videos; instead, she had been bustling about in the office building she owned in Qingxiu District, diligently working and contacting a renovation team to prepare for refurbishments.
When it came to the development of her studio, Little Landlady always planned meticulously and acted decisively.
Moreover, with plenty of money in her little treasury, there was no need to worry about cash flow problems.
“I was handling some things at the office building in Qingxiu District today, and I also prepared the materials required for registering the 720 Network Security Company,” Little Landlady said, lifting her face slightly with a touch of pride.
Lin Chuan’s brows raised slightly in surprise, “Little Landlady, you spent the afternoon dealing with the company’s affairs?”
“That’s right.”
Little Landlady said with a smile, “The studio is really taking off right now, and the police have entrusted us with network security services, so we have a lot of tasks to handle.”
Lin Chuan nodded.
Then, he informed this diligent financial director about the anti-fraud app.
“An anti-fraud app, if this project is done well, it could be very influential!” Little Landlady’s eyes shone even brighter.
Lin Chuan agreed, “Yes, the formal project launch is tomorrow. We will establish a special R&D task force with the Anti-Fraud Center and companies like Jintang, Copper Wall, and Galaxy.”
“Then we won’t have enough staff in our studio,” Little Landlady said.
“Right, we’ll need to hire more people.”
“Okay, I’ll draft a recruitment notice overnight tonight,” Little Landlady said with a smile.
“Thanks for the hard work, financial director!” said Lin Chuan with a chuckle.
“Is there anything else?”
Little Landlady blinked her eyes.
“As the financial director, and now also managing HR, the company is partly yours. You handle your own salary. Besides saying ‘thanks for the hard work,’ what else can I offer?” Lin Chuan said leisurely, a smile on his face.
Little Landlady, pinching her skirt, lifted her brows and hummed, “What about things outside of the company?”
Lin Chuan’s eyes darted around, and he vaguely replied, “Then get some sleep earlier, don’t stay up too late.”
“That’s it?” Little Landlady asked, her tone a mix of sweetness and feigned ferocity.
Lin Chuan furrowed his brow, looked up at the sky as if deep in thought, and then said tentatively, “Well, how about… we sleep together?”
“Sure!”
Little Landlady’s voice was crisp, like a sprite in the night, leaping into Lin Chuan’s ears.
“Then I’ll go grab some gear.”
Lin Chuan turned to walk towards the little supermarket.
“Keep dreaming,” Little Landlady huffed, a mysterious smile on her face.
“Too bad.”
Lin Chuan shook his head in feigned disappointment.
“What do you think about the team building trip to Yundian for May Day?” Little Landlady asked.
Lin Chuan took a deep breath and said frankly, “Someone has invited me to Yundian already.”
“Was it the two ladies from before?”
“Yes, it’s just a plain trip for some fun and to get some inspiration, nothing else,” Lin Chuan explained.
“`
“You sure have a lot of admirers!” Little Landlady Zhang Xinxin muttered before adding, “I’m coming too!”
Lin Chuan’s mouth twitched: “Little Landlady, is that appropriate?”
“I’m the financial director at 720, what’s wrong with joining the team-building?” Little Landlady pouted her lips.
“But you’re still a university student, right? Does Old Zhang agree with you going? What about your graduation thesis defense?” Lin Chuan suddenly asked.
Little Landlady was taken aback.
Lin Chuan seized the opportunity to say, “Wait until you’ve graduated, then our company can go team-building. It won’t be late.”
“By that time, I won’t be a female college student anymore.” Little Landlady said somberly, pursing her lips slightly and appearing somewhat aggrieved.
Lin Chuan: “???”
Little Landlady, you’re really something else!
“Let’s talk about it after you graduate.” Lin Chuan, full of guilt, dropped a line and went straight upstairs, beating a hasty retreat.
This Little Landlady, the things she says always lead to wild thoughts, way too intoxicating.
Can’t handle it, just can’t handle it!
Watching Lin Chuan’s fleeing figure, Little Landlady spat out, “Wait till I graduate, I’ll squeeze you dry…ugh, I mean I’ll thoroughly exploit you!”
Night turned into day.
Dawn replaced the dim streetlights on the side of the road, shining on the slightly concave stone pavement, the light enveloping this tranquil old district.
Lin Chuan and Little Landlady were busy with their own affairs again.
Little Landlady was responsible for registering the Network Security Company and also recruiting new employees.
Lin Chuan, on the other hand, participated in the anti-fraud app project initiation ceremony and became the leader of the anti-fraud app special task force.
Busy as bees.
However, having experienced the development of fraud applications in the virtual life of a fraud salesman, the development of the anti-fraud app wasn’t too difficult for Lin Chuan.
Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.
…
Time flew by, and it was now the ‘May Day’ holiday.
May 1st.
Lin Chuan’s new book “All-In” was released on schedule, confirmed as a participant in the nationwide writing competition co-hosted by the Anti-Fraud Center and Sunshine Film and Television.
Not only Lin Chuan and Wang Zikai, but also authors like Handon with “10,000 Subscriptions,” influential authors Tianya, Guihai, and others participated as well.
On just May 1st alone, there were over 3000 anti-fraud themed novels released across the entire network, making for some fierce competition.
Since the preliminary round of the anti-fraud writing competition ran from May 1st to May 31st, with the top 100 hottest novels and scripts advancing to the next final round of judging, participating authors all tacitly agreed to release their work on the 1st and finish on the 31st.
Lin Chuan was no exception.
At this time, Lin Chuan was already in a bed and breakfast in Yundian University, half-reclining in a comfortable rocking chair.
On the night of April 30th, he flew from Anling to Yundian University overnight.
As is well known, most economy class seats on airplanes aren’t very spacious and aren’t very comfortable, especially since Shen Qianqian and Xia Qingqing squeezed Lin Chuan into the middle seat of the three-row seating.
Lin Chuan felt uneasy.
Arriving at Dali airport and then checking into the bed and breakfast, it was already midnight.
Now, the two policewomen were in the next room, and hadn’t gotten up yet.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Chuan started to ‘market’ his “All-In.”
Of course, his ‘marketing techniques’ were relatively straightforward.
Lin Chuan opened the ‘Abide by Law, Everyone’s Responsibility’ QQ group, also known as ‘the gathering place for outlaws,’ and sent a message, “Bros, started a new book!”
He attached the link to “All-In.”
