Chapter 46: Page 46

Mao Mao was originally a street kid, stealing in the dusk streets, trying to survive in the chaotic world, not seeking fame in the world. The boss did not think that I was mean, and offered me a high salary.

I have been wandering for half my life and have never met a wise leader. If the boss doesn't abandon me, I would like to take you as my godfather!

There was no way Paduo could refuse the conditions offered by Lu Mian. Her eyes were full of conviction and she was determined as if she wanted to save the world.

Seeing that Paduo had finally cheered up, Lu Mian's mind became more active again:

"We do have a very important task for you. It concerns the business war between our company and other friendly companies."

Hearing this, Paduo silently puffed out her chest.

The little girl on Dusk Street stood at attention.

"I want you to... go to other companies and steal their money trees."

"......Eh?"

Paduo tilted her head slightly, as if she didn't hear what Lu Mian said clearly.

Seeing this, Lu Mian chuckled and said softly:

"Do you think stealing the fortune tree is too difficult? It doesn't matter. You can also kill the fortune tree with boiling water right on the spot, which will also be considered a success."

This time Paduo had to listen carefully. She stared silently at Lu Mian who was chuckling. She opened her mouth but only uttered a few half-true and half-false whispers.

Why must our competitors lose their money trees?

Is this a business war?

I, the cat, have learned something new.

[After your joke of "stealing the money tree to start a business war" came to an end, this recruitment, although it was quite bumpy but also smooth, came to an end. ]

[You successfully tamed the little wild cat Paduo and paid her this month's salary on the same day. ]

[You are not worried that she will abscond with the money.]

[She had lived in such a dark place like Dusk Street for so many years in vain, without knowing how to tell the difference between meals.]

[Pado, who received her salary card before she even started working, stared at the card in a daze for a long time before she came to her senses.]

【She was filled with gratitude and, somewhat embarrassedly, made another request to you. 】

[She asks if you can take her stray cat friends with you.]

【You readily agree to this. 】

[Having one cat is no different than having many cats, but it also serves as a reminder that you should take proper measures to clean and disinfect Padu and her stray cat friends before bringing them into the company.]

【...】

[Two weeks after you brought Paddo into the company, you regretted it.]

[She is indeed a good girl. Although she is a little dishonest, she will not be dishonest to you.]

【But...her work is too intense. 】

[This indirectly causes your inspiration to flow like diarrhea, which is really painful and joyful. ]

Game Life Company.

The pale golden sunlight at noon slanted through the floor-to-ceiling windows and sprinkled on the carpeted floor in the house.

After taking a nice shower and changing into nice new clothes, Padu got up from her workstation and ended her nap for the day.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked around.

Well, brother Leon is still playing a game called "Resident Evil". He should have got full platinum or something.

What about the boss who’s a bit of a teaser but a really nice person?

Oh, still typing away on the keyboard.

On the other side of the workstation, a little kitten with smooth and fluffy fur was basking in the sun, lazily enjoying the light and warmth.

Seeing this scene, Paduo's eyebrows curved and her eyes were full of tenderness.

It's such a beautiful scene and life that people dare not even dream of it.

Thinking of this, the girl trotted behind Lu Mian, placed her bare fingers lightly on his shoulders, and began to knead and massage him lightly and heavily.

"Boss, why don't you just take advantage of me?" she said.

Hearing this, Lu Mian, who had heard this before, stopped typing on the keyboard, his face full of helplessness.

This girl is really lively.

[After completing the class leap from wild cat to house cat, you did not assign Padu any job of stealing money trees. The only hard requirement was that she was not allowed to leave the company without permission during working hours.]

[Is this also a request? ]

[At the same time, you were really good to Padu, giving her a new life that she never dared to dream of before, allowing her to eat well every day and take a nap every day. She even gained some weight...]

[In addition, you will also take her to see trees as tall as the sky, take her to other people's weddings, take her to Disneyland...]

[Although this doesn't matter in your eyes, in most cases it's you who subjectively wants to do these things and bring Padu along.]

[But in the eyes of a girl who has never been loved and doesn't know what love looks like, it becomes your kindness to her, kindness without any impurities. ]

[You treat Paddo so well that she often doubts whether you are her long-lost biological father.]

[And the contrast between such high pay and low requirements always makes people feel guilty. ]

[It's like if you don't swear you can get 10 million a month. If you don't eat more O, no one will feel at ease with the money. ]

[Pado is probably in this state now.]

Lu Mian has never been very sensitive to other people's emotions, especially women's, so at this moment he couldn't tell what Paduo was thinking.

Do you think it's not good to enjoy too high a salary for nothing?

Or do you want to do something because you don't want to lose the good life you have now?

Or is it both?

The answer is a little hard to guess, and at the same time doesn't seem that important.

The backrest of the chair was not long enough for Lu Mian to tilt his head back and gently rest his head on Padu's soft belly.

"Don't keep thinking about the promotion machine all day long, girl. If I really tease you, you'll be in trouble.

"If you really find it boring, go and play with Sanguang. If that doesn't work, I'll approve a few days off for you." His voice was soft and a little dull.

Paduo did not object to Lu Mian's overly intimate actions, but took a thieving glance at Leon who was playing games in the distance, and whispered:

“Boss, let me tell you something. After careful observation over this period of time, Sanguang, no, Brother Leon, he probably doesn’t like women!”

After hearing this, Lu Mian couldn't hold it back and revealed a hearty, healthy and sunny smile.

My goodness, does Sanguan know that he doesn’t like women?

After laughing for a while, he finally recovered a little and gave a more official explanation:

"Your brother Leon is a licker of some bad woman. In his eyes, other women are probably more like curvy men. When you are with him, just treat yourself as a man."

"Ah? Really?" Paddy covered her mouth in surprise, while constantly stealing glances at Leon who seemed to be still playing games.

Lu Mian's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was firm, "How could it be false?"

It is extremely inappropriate to use the term "licker" as a joke to describe someone you are not close to.

But considering that he and Leon have a relationship closer than that of brothers, it is just right.

So naturally there is nothing to worry about.

[After accidentally learning the gossip that Leon was a "licker", Pado no longer obsessed with being sexually exploited. ]

[She excitedly pulls up a chair and sits next to you to chat with you about gossip, talking about everything under the sun.]

[You also put down your work and played with her. ]

[Not far away, Leon, who was wearing headphones, rested his chin on his hand and watched the scene in front of him. For the first time in his life, he hated his hearing which was far superior to that of ordinary people. ]

[Should I explain myself and protect my image? ]

[Forget it. If I explain, I will just become a bootlicker...]

-----------------

[Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, several years have passed. ]

【With Paduo as your excellent inspiration provider, you have made several more games. 】

[The relationship between you and Paddo has not warmed up - if it does, the thermometer will not be able to bear it.]

[As more and more games are released under the Game No Life banner, the power behind you becomes stronger and stronger, and your reputation also rises.]

[Many people who claim to be geniuses have sent you their resumes, hoping to seek a position in your company.]

【They were all rejected by you. 】

[They are indeed talented, but they can never be better than you in gaming.]

[Besides, they cannot provide you with the subtle emotional value of inspiration and happiness.]

【Then they are of no use to you and your company. 】

[Time goes by again and again, and on a certain ordinary afternoon, you welcome a reasonable and unexpected guest - Alicia. ]

[After several years of separation, Miss Pink Fairy has lost her youthfulness, and the flawless smile on her face has become more elusive. ]

[Most importantly, her butt has grown again, big enough to match your impression.]

[You chuckled, and asked Alysia about her travel experiences and achievements in a way that was neither distant nor intimate.]

[But she just looked at you silently, with complex emotions in her eyes, and didn't give any definite answer. ]

[The next second, she reached out and hugged you. ]

【......? ? ? 】

[A soft and fragrant jade embraces you in my arms. Mmm, a soft and fragrant jade embraces you in my arms. The extremely familiar fragrance penetrates into my nose. ]

[This scene should be extremely beautiful. ]

[But you only felt doubt, great doubt.]

[You are selfish, whether it is love or other emotions. ]

[You are also very clear that you are selfish. Your selfishness and Alicia's selflessness will only make the relationship between you ugly and disgusting.]

[So you can control yourself and not fall in love with Alicia, and at the same time fight with her to ensure that your relationship is just ordinary friends. ]

[You thought you had dealt with it successfully, and you and Alicia were just ordinary friends until you parted ways.]

[But this seems to be just in your opinion. Judging from the way Alicia hugged you, it seems that you two were married for two years in the early years.]

【When did this happen? 】

[Why don’t you, the person directly involved, know about this? ]

[Just when you were about to give up thinking, Alicia "explained" her motives to you. ]

[Oh, so she thought you were dead, and she blamed your death on her not taking you on the trip, and she almost regretted it for the rest of her life.]

[Then it is reasonable for you to hug her. All kinds of emotions become more lasting as time goes by. At the same time, with a spoonful of unspeakable surprise of regaining what was lost, it is reasonable for her to act impulsively.]

[Yeah, reasonable. 】

[After gradually understanding everything, you smiled soothingly and waited for Alicia to calm down and release her arms around you.]

【Ten seconds passed.】

【Twenty seconds passed.】

【…Two minutes passed.】

[Alicea never loosens her arms around you. ]

Chapter 8: Thus Said Mebius (Two in One)

Lu Mian blinked as he looked at Alicia, who was hugging him tightly with no intention of letting go.

He cherished the girl's sincere feelings for him, and then tried to break free from her arms without leaving any trace.
