"Buzz off!" Liu Shuai laughed and scolded when he heard Hao Ning's sarcasm."You should be the reincarnation of a divine dog. Beside, Erlang Shen's dog is a hound? If it were a Husky, then it would have waved its tail in front and reached an agreement with the enemy even before the fighting started. Fine, I won't intervene in it. Just write it properly. Oh right, tell me the name of the novel. I'll go take a look too."
"It's called the Legends of Gods." When Hao Ning heard the words "reach an agreement with the enemy," he couldn't help but laugh. "I've written a part of it, about a hundred thousand words, you can take a look."
"That much?" Liu Shuai's face was full of excitement. He immediately picked up his phone to look up the title."You are really wordy. It would take a whole year for me to write merely ten thousand words."
"Don't mention it, "When Hao Ning heard him praising him, his smile lessened. "The number of words I wrote is too small. Nowadays those online novels are all over one million words. Those who write only a hundred thousand are shamed, so there is no one putting my book in his or her online shelf, and it is read by a few people."
"Hahaha, that's true," Liu Shuai laughed out loud as he clicked and opened the novel, then read cheerily. However, his expression turned serious as he read a few pages, "Hey, Hao Ning, you are not fair! Why did you even write about my bald head? That is my privacy, okay? "
"Err …" Hao Ning was speechless. He looked at Liu Shuai and asked, "Why do you think it's privacy? Everyone in our company can see your bald head. How can you keep it private? "
"..." Liu Shuai was choked by those words, but he agreed somewhat with it after some contemplation. Although he did not wish for others to bring it up, everyone on the streets could see it. Thus it should not be considered as privacy, but to be directly written by Hao Ning in a novel, he was a little bit unhappy furtively. Thus, he said, "What I mean is, could you beautify me even a little? Beautification, Beautification, do you understand it? "
"I do," Hao Ning nodded his head, "I've made a lot of it. For example, the effects of your magic techniques, I used many different methods to describe them. If you don't believe me, read it carefully."
"What magic effect!" Liu Shuai rubbed his bald head, and said hatefully, "Do you take it as a video game? Did you add the shadow effect or increase the saturation?! I mean you should beautify me as a person!"
"Ugh …Doesn't that seem real? " Seeing that Liu Shuai was about to get angry, Hao Ning immediately comforted him, "How about this, you tell me what you want me to do, and I will change it for you later. Do you want to be a playboy, for example, you have fifty wives, and each one of them is a beauty and loves you so much that you can't even drive her away, and you will be surrounded by them every day? Or do you want to be a face-smacking expert, for example, you are actually a rich person who worked at our company only to experience life, and someday you throw several billion to the boss to acquire this company, and make everyone bow to you? By the way, if you are going to buy the company, remember to give me some share. Or, do you want to be a cultivation god, an almighty one who rules the whole universe?"
"Well..." Liu Shuai listened to Hao Ning's wishful thinking and immediately hesitated, "About the playboy part, that's not realistic. Besides, my future girlfriend may consider me erotic if she reads your novel. And, don't mention gods. It's fine if you write others like that, but if you write me down like that, then I don't think Zhang Quan and Zhang Chi Hang, the two great gods, will forgive me. Also, don't write about the rich family background. If you write to me as a billionaire, but in fact, I only live in this pity salary, I may not be able to tolerate the fall when I read it."
"Why are you so picky!" When Hao Ning saw that Liu Shuai was muttering to himself, saying that he was not satisfied with any role he mentioned, he immediately said, "How about I give you my account, so you can write it down yourself? Or if you think that I don't write it well, I can make you die in the next chapter, like, you sacrifice your life for the great cause of mankind, then everyone will remember you, how about that?"
"Stop it." Liu Shuai interrupted him,"You're the boss. Don't make me die. I was wrong, bro."
Hao Ning laughed, "Then shut your mouth up."
"I will," Liu Shuai pretended to surrender and continued to read the novel. As he frowned, he said, "Hey, this part is incorrect."
"Incorrect?" Hao Ning asked curiously, "Which part? It's just a novel; how can there be correct or incorrect?"
"Right here," Liu Shuai said as he pointed to the screen. " Zhang Chihang told you at that time that 'are you discussing logic with a Bodhisattva? Why don't you discuss performance skills with a star?' You were wrong. "
"Bullshit!" Hao Ning disagreed, "If that's not what he said, then what is it?"
"Heh, you started to swell up before even writing much," Liu Shuai looked at Hao Ning and mocked. "At that time, Avalokiteshvara said, are you still discussing logic with a Bodhisattva? But here, what you wrote is, are you discussing logic with a Bodhisattva? You missed the word 'still'!"
"..." Hao Ning looked at Liu Shuai. He was so upset about his words. Hence he scolded in anger, "Are you out of your mind! If you want to read, then read. If you not, don't mess with me! I am not a damn recorder. How can I remember everything Zhang Chihang said that clearly? "
"But that's a Bodhisattva!" Liu Shuai said seriously, "Every word a Bodhisattva says deserves our praise!"
Hao Ning looked at the shinning part in Liu Shuai's eyes. He rubbed his forehead and sighed, then pushed the keyboard to Liu Shuai, "Here, take the keyboard, you write it! You have a good memory. You remember things very well. You are extremely 'smart' — here, you can write whatever you want. "
"Hey, don't be upset" Seeing Hao Ning behaving like that, Liu Shuai immediately smiled and apologized, "Keep writing. You can write whatever you want, okay?"
"That's what you said." Hao Ning stared at Liu Shuai."You can only read it. Don't say any more bullshit!"
This time, Liu Shuai nodded thoughtfully,"I won't, but don't disfigure me."
Hao Ning thought that he had no time to disfigure him. As he was about to speak, he suddenly saw an email message that popped out from the computer, saying that"of Zhou Yuan in the project …"Words after that were blocked from view.
Liu Shuai also saw the message. Since it was related to Zhou Yuan, he became involuntarily nervous,"Previously the director said that he wanted to fire Zhou Yuan. Is that his announcement to the entire project team? Quickly open it and take a look!"
Hao Ning was also a little nervous, but he had his doubts. Hence, he opened the mail, and saw that the full text of the mail was:
"Announcement Regarding the Appointment of Zhou Yuan in the Project Team:
With the combined efforts of everyone here, we finally broke out of the predicament …
Mr. Zhou Yuan was appointed as the person in charge of the project design, responsible for the design of the project's internal products, etc.. The design team shall report to Mr. Zhou Yuan. As the person in charge of design, Mr. Zhou Yuan shall report his work to Yang Laode along with Liu Shuai, the person in charge of technology.
Together, let's double our efforts to achieve the next glory quickly! "
Hao Ning and Liu Shuai read the announcement several times. They were immediately dumbstruck.The announcements were basically nonsense, but the information it revealed was extremely inconceivable. Not long ago, Zhou Yuan offended Director Yang Laode several times for his inconsiderate speech, and he did not appreciate Hao Ning and Liu Shuai's help, but went to Hangzhou for sightseeing alone, which made Yang Laode so upset that he even claimed to fire Zhou Yuan once he returned, and today, Zhou Yuan was called by Yang Laode into the conference room, leaving Hao Ning and Liu Shuai worried that he might not be able to stay in the company anymore. Besides, Liu Shuai had started using his personal network to help Zhou Yuan find the next job. However, after their conversation in the conference room, the company issued such a surprising announcement. Zhou Yuan was not fired, but even got promoted.
Hao Ning carefully checked the email. It was the official appointment memo from the CEO, so it couldn't be a joke. He could not help but look at Liu Shuai and ask out the doubt in his heart, "Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Liu Shuai was also confused,"Yeah, the Director has been on a business trip these days, and he immediately took care of Zhou Yuan's matters when he just came back. When he first called Zhou Yuan in, he was still angry, but his attitude changed entirely within just a while?"
Just as the two were making wild guesses, the door to the CEO's office opened. Then, Yang Laode walked out and stood at the door waving at Hao Ning and Liu Shuai, signaling them to come over.
The two immediately stopped their discussion and entered the CEO's office.
The company was located on the 29th floor of this high-tech office building. The CEO's office was pretty spacious. One-third of its walls were made of floor-to-ceiling windows. Since the sea was not far away, one could directly see the sea in this office. The CEO's name was Guo Yue. All the clients who came over here couldn't help praising the location of this office. The boss's name included a character meaning mountains, while he could see the sea in his office, which turned out to be a nice geomantic layout.
When the two of them went in, they found Zhou Yuan chatting with Guo Yue, who was drinking tea. In the tea set beside them, a kettle was burning water. That tea set was Guo Yue's beloved item. Normally, other than himself, he only used it when important customers came. However, it made people surprised that he actually used it today at such an occasion. At the same time, the layout of Guo Yue, Zhou Yuan, and Yang Laode's seats was also very interesting. Logically speaking, as the director, Yang Laode should be right next to Guo Yue, but in reality, it was the opposite. Zhou Yuan and Guo Yue were close to each other, and the two of them seemed to be happily chatting. Yang Laode did not speak but was listening with a smile.
A Note From Mu Yu: At this point, you can rethink about the stories in the first season, I Saw the Gods. Is it about the things that really happened to Hao Ning and Liu Shuai, or stories after Hao Ning's artistic treatment? If you are interested, you can read season one again. Maybe you will find some clues.
