Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

Chapter 491 "Infecting the World" - Male Mother (102)

How wild is it?

Looking at the wall covered in graffiti... Lu Liruan thought she had stumbled into the territory of some gang, like in the movies.

Moreover, Lu Liruan couldn't understand what the painting was about.

Like a pair of messy, strange things exuding a wild, artistic vibe.

They noticed that Lu Liruan had stopped and was looking at the wall with a strange expression.

Liao Tingyuan sighed, "Don't ask me what I'm drawing, I don't know either." He preemptively struck.

“…Ah.” Lu Liruan’s open mouth closed again.

I couldn't help but ask, "What is this?"

"I really don't know." Liao Tingyuan sighed softly.

"Who drew this?" Lu Liruan asked a different question.

"That rainbow-colored colleague in the office."

“Does he even know what he’s drawing? Didn’t any of you ask him?” Lu Liruan pointed.

"He went to work at another branch the week after he finished the painting."

"Huh? Why?" Lu Liruan imagined a scenario: because he didn't get along with his boss and colleagues, the boss suppressed his free and unrestrained nature and deliberately made things difficult for him by making special office rules for him.

His colleagues also flattered the boss, ignoring him and encouraging him because of the boss's regulations, leaving him feeling isolated and helpless in the office.

So in the end, he could only apply for a transfer from this unfriendly work environment and start over somewhere else—such a melodramatic story.

But before she could even ask Liao Tingyuan, she heard him say casually, "He's dating a female colleague from another branch."

"what?"

"They said they found a soulmate with whom they could resonate on a spiritual level... They said we were just a bunch of ordinary people, and that working with us would only cause his burning soul and life to gradually extinguish and decay." Liao Tingyuan repeated what the other party had said at the time with a blank expression.

Because the other person was standing in the middle of the office, shouting loudly, scanning all the colleagues in the office, and then leaving in a haughty manner.

This has practically become an office legend.

“Uh…” Lu Liruan didn’t know what to say for a moment.

All I could do was ask, "And then?"

"Then he transferred there, and we rarely went on missions together after that."

"Huh? Is it that lenient here? Didn't he have an office romance after he transferred there? And then he offended your boss, and that's it?" Lu Liruan felt that the aftermath was a bit too simple and bland.

"Before his office romance, he had an online relationship." Liao Tingyuan himself felt it was absurd after saying this: "He met his soulmate in a cross-departmental work group."

Lu Liruan: ...

That's strange.

"They agreed to take him in too?" Lu Liruan thought to herself, "The leaders there are very tolerant..."

"He actually did a pretty good job. That branch was the last to be built, so they were short-staffed. Even though he had some personal connections... it still wasn't enough..."

Oh, even though he seemed to have some mental issues in private, he was quite efficient at his work, so the supervisor there reluctantly accepted him.

The key point is, if his soulmate is there over there, wouldn't that prove that there are two such brilliant and talented individuals in that unit?

Do the leaders over there have to hold their noses while working?

"So, the boss said to let him leave as soon as possible." Liao Tingyuan shrugged.

Lu Liruan glanced at the wall again and felt that the graffiti on it seemed even wilder and freer than before.

"Then why didn't you wipe it?" Lu Liruan tilted her head.

"The boss said to just paint it, and then redecorate it, which would cost more money."

"..."

Lu Liruan followed Liao Tingyuan to the door and saw the courtyard inside.

Most of the other people's yards were very well maintained. One yard I just passed had at least ten kinds of flowers planted in it, blooming in overlapping layers, making the house look like a cottage from a fairy tale.

Another place has a Chinese style, with a small courtyard decorated like a garden, small and exquisite.

But this courtyard...

Lu Liruan watched as a large, sleek, and agile black cat suddenly darted out from behind the side fence!

Then, from inside the yard... came a faint, chirping sound?

It doesn't seem like it!

Liao Tingyuan, however, seemed used to it and didn't even glance in that direction.

"Teacher Liao, what's that over there?" Lu Liruan pointed to the cages in the corner, wondering if her eyesight was bad or if she had misheard.

"that is……"

Before Liao Tingyuan could finish speaking, the villa's door was suddenly flung open!

A girl with layered short hair walked out quickly. She was wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt and denim shorts, and looked very refreshing and tall.

But at that moment, she put her hands on her hips and strode down the stairs in twos and threes at a time, rushing towards the fence while yelling, "Big Black! Go home! Or I'll tell your mom you've come to steal chickens again!"

Her voice was so loud it was deafening; Lu Liruan felt that half the villa area could probably hear her roar.

Lu Liruan: ...

I involuntarily took a step back.

Liao Tingyuan pressed down on her shoulder from behind, a hint of embarrassment appearing on his face.

Although he didn't think there was anything good about his workplace that he wanted to show Lu Liruan, it didn't feel necessary to show it off either.

The woman inside was still enraged and didn't notice the two people standing outside the door. She casually picked up two plastic basins from the ground.

Lu Liruan didn't know why there were plastic basins in the yard.

She placed the two basins face to face and banged them together with a loud "bang bang bang" sound, continuing to demonstrate her torso; the scene was very shocking.

Although she didn't know exactly what it felt like, Lu Liruan felt that at this moment... she was somewhat like the character described in the book:

I've been sent to the countryside.

I don't need to do farm work at my workplace, right?

Before leaving home in the morning, Lu Liruan wondered if she was going to marry a rich and beautiful woman from a wealthy family, only to be met with disdain from her family.

When they arrived, they were shocked to discover that the family that had raised such a beautiful and wealthy woman was completely unexpected.

Liao Tingyuan was unaware that Lu Liruan had compared him to a rich and beautiful woman in her mind. He looked around the courtyard and coughed softly.

The first sound was too soft and was drowned out by the sound of the pot being pounded.

Liao Tingyuan reached out and knocked on the fence.

The people inside then turned around.

First, she met Liao Tingyuan's expressionless face, then shifted her gaze to Lu Liruan's face beside her. Lu Liruan didn't know what expression to make, so she could only awkwardly twitch the corners of her mouth.

He flashed his most insincere smile of the year.

"what……"

The woman put the basin back on the ground, awkwardly touched her hair, and then walked towards the door.

"Ah! Tingyuan, what brings you to work today?" She made conversation, then answered herself, "By the way, Sister Fang said you are indeed coming to work this week."

"Hello, my surname is An, An Tang." She smiled at Lu Liruan and opened the door to let them in.

As Lu Liruan walked past her, she noticed that An Tang was very tall, almost only one or two centimeters shorter than Liao Tingyuan.

She has single eyelids, a high nose bridge, and a small face; she looks like she could be a model.

"..."

Seeing Lu Liruan hesitate, she took the initiative and said, "You can just call me A-Tang, that's what everyone calls me. I'll call you Liruan." She spoke cheerfully and generously.

"Huh? How do you know my name?" Lu Liruan asked in surprise.

“Not only do I know your name, everyone knows your name. It’s rare to hear Tingyuan mention someone so many times.” An Tang smiled, revealing a dimple on her left cheek.

"Ah..." Lu Liruan didn't expect the other party to say that. She subconsciously turned to look at Liao Tingyuan, only to find that Liao Tingyuan's expression was a little strange.

"Alright! Come in quickly!" An Tang pushed the door open and patted Lu Liruan's arm naturally and naturally.

When Lu Liruan walked in, she found that the yard was lush and green, not only with untrimmed weeds, but also with... quite a few tomatoes planted there.

And cucumber?

Lu Liruan couldn't recognize those plants.

I recognize tomatoes because of the few red fruits hanging on them.

This eclectic mix of artistic and rustic styles at a farmhouse inn is truly something I've never seen before; it's been an eye-opener...

Once inside the villa, Lu Liruan felt much more at ease.

The interior is tastefully decorated in a simple, natural wood style. The windows are large, allowing sunlight to stream in, making the whole room bright and the luster of the wood very comfortable.

The first floor is the large living room, which has a long sofa.

"Please sit down, I'll get you a glass of water." An Tang gestured for Lu Liruan to sit down, and then she walked inside.

"Inside are the kitchen and lounge," Liao Tingyuan said, helping Lu Liruan put her bag on a small table and introducing the area.

"The offices are upstairs."

"Is there enough room upstairs?" Lu Liruan walked over and noticed that all the other homes here seemed to be for residential use, while this place appeared to be the only one used as an office.

“Those who have tasks don’t need to come to the office, and those who don’t have work don’t really need to come either.” Liao Tingyuan pursed his lips.

"what?"

Lu Liruan was surprised; she had never heard Liao Tingyuan mention this before...

Moreover, according to Liao Tingyuan, he went to work diligently every day.

Just as Lu Liruan was wondering what was going on, An Tang brought out a glass of iced cola from the kitchen.

"Don't give her something so cold to drink, she just came from outside..."

Liao Tingyuan frowned and spoke.

"what?"

An Tang was taken aback, her hands paused, and she looked at Liao Tingyuan with a puzzled expression, then at Lu Liruan.

Before Liao Tingyuan could react, Lu Liruan had already taken the cup, glanced at Liao Tingyuan, and quickly gulped down a few mouthfuls.

The heat of the journey was instantly extinguished, and my mouth and throat ached from the carbon dioxide.

"Teacher Liao always has these health tips, do you all have to listen to him all the time?" Lu Liruan pouted.

An Tang looked at Lu Liruan's natural demeanor, narrowed her eyes slightly, glanced at Liao Tingyuan, and revealed a speculative expression, thinking to herself: He usually doesn't care about other people's health or not... let alone such trivial matters as drinking cold or warm water.

But she didn't tell Lu Liruan.

Instead, he looked at Liao Tingyuan with a thoughtful expression.

Liao Tingyuan was very sensitive to changes in other people's emotions, but Lu Liruan was not. She did not notice that the moods of the two people next to her had changed in just a few seconds.

"I see?" An Tang responded, "Would you like some warm water?"

Obviously not, Lu Liruan had already drunk most of the cola.

He waved his hand and said, "He can support me, I won't support him. I'm still young."

An Tang's expression became even more subtle.

She has thin eyelids, and when she smiles, the long, thin arc at the corner of her eye makes her look cunning.

"Is it possible to not work here normally?" Lu Liruan asked.

What kind of work system is this?

"Ah! You mean this!" An Tang sat down naturally next to Lu Liruan, smiling as she said, "Yes, Liruan can do that too if she works here~ If there's no work, no meetings, and the boss doesn't need to see you, you don't have to come~"

“But Teacher Liao said he…” Lu Liruan asked doubtfully.

“Because the workplace can’t be without people all the time, otherwise if there’s an emergency during the day, no one will know.” An Tang looked at Liao Tingyuan.

"All the bosses said, let's set up a full attendance bonus, which means you can come to work and leave on time every day, and you get full attendance bonus after a month. It's voluntary, one person can do it, two people can do it, everyone can do it~ Anyway..." She gestured with her fingers to Lu Liruan as if she were twirling banknotes, and then fanned her face.

Oh……

Lu Liruan understood.

Anyway, the boss isn't short of money, right?

It doesn't matter whether it's one person or everyone.

Seeing that she understood, An Tang added in a moderate voice, "But actually... at most only two people can get full attendance bonuses, because the regular salary is already quite good, so everyone is very concerned about full attendance..."

Do they have any ambitions? There are only two people in the company who are very ambitious about money.

One of them is Liao Tingyuan.

Lu Liruan automatically filled in the rest of the parts that were not suitable to be discussed in front of others in her mind.

But Lu Liruan also felt that... although Liao Tingyuan was after money, it wasn't entirely for money. Teacher Liao had a faint sense of being a corporate slave, like, "Since there's nothing else to do, why not become a beast of burden?"

Liao Tingyuan didn't stop him from talking about himself in front of him.

Liao Tingyuan raised an eyebrow when he noticed Lu Liruan looking at him.

"So... is no one here today?" Lu Liruan realized that she only saw An Tang when she came in.

It was quiet both upstairs and downstairs.

"Some people have gone to carry out missions, and a few others said they were coming today to meet their new colleagues, but at this time, they are probably still on their way."

An Tang pointed to the clock on the wall: "Our perfect attendance rule is nine o'clock in the morning, and it's past nine now. They mean they don't want perfect attendance."

Lu Liruan remembered Liao Tingyuan urging her to get up that morning... Suddenly, she stared at Liao Tingyuan and said, "Teacher Liao, actually, you urged me to get perfect attendance, right?"

“Hmm,” An Tang answered for him.

"Because in the space, every day counts as perfect attendance. Before Tingyuan entered the space, he had perfect attendance that month, which counts as perfect attendance in the space. Today... he has also achieved perfect attendance."

very scary.

Lu Liruan was speechless.

Despite working day and night for so long, Teacher Liao still has perfect attendance!
