Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?-Chapter 79 - 76: Easily Taken Down~

Gu Jinxing walked to a small isolated table, where a seemingly very ordinary company employee was sitting.

However, Hu Jiayao caught up, and with a glance at the employee, immediately understood what Gu Jinxing meant by "abnormality"—

The employee was sitting alone at the table, with a tray in front of him, and a row of bowls and dishes on the tray.

But the bowls and dishes were completely empty, devoid of food, not even a drop of soup or oil, so clean they seemed to have been taken straight from the dish rack.

Even more bizarre, the person seemed completely unaware that the tray in front of them was empty, and continued to use chopsticks to pick up air from the bowls and put it in their mouth with great seriousness.

"NPC? Glitched?"

Hu Jiayao said, bending down, staring into the employee’s eyes, then waving his hand in front of the employee, "Hey, buddy, can you communicate?"

The employee completely ignored Hu Jiayao, continuing to mechanically use chopsticks to pick air from the bowl.

Hu Jiayao frowned, "Looks like a low-level NPC, without communication abilities."

"Really?"

Gu Jinxing did not agree, and casually grabbed an employee passing by.

The employee was carrying a tray to a table, suddenly startled and nearly spilled soup from the bowl, and frowned with some annoyance, "What’s up?"

Gu Jinxing smiled at the employee and pointed at the tray, "Excuse me, where did you get that chicken leg?"

The employee casually pointed to the food counter, "Second counter on the right."

Watching the employee leave, Gu Jinxing looked at Hu Jiayao, "See? I’ve observed, the NPCs on this map are very intelligent, it’s impossible for them to completely lack communication abilities."

Hu Jiayao returned to his previous point, "Then they originally had communication abilities, but got glitched and lost their original functionality."

Gu Jinxing was silent for a moment, not agreeing with Hu Jiayao.

He felt there were other issues involved, but it was hard to determine at the moment.

He scanned the employee in front of him through the system, but did not retrieve any useful information.

Gu Jinxing fell into contemplation.

"Never mind, it’s just a small bug, such a big map, so many models, one or two small errors are quite normal, right?" Hu Jiayao waved his hand, trying to persuade his buddy to leave.

However, Gu Jinxing shook his head, "No matter how small the error, it can’t be overlooked."

"So what are you gonna do?" Hu Jiayao scratched the back of his head helplessly, "Are you going to report it to the system administrator and wait for them to fix it? It’s uncertain if there’s even a system admin here."

Speaking of reporting...

Gu Jinxing thought of someone.

He brought up their guild’s chat group from the system.

Wenna Elders Core Group—

[Jinxing: 2nd floor cafeteria, North East corner, there’s a situation]

[Jinxing: Found an employee NPC, displaying abnormal behavior]

[Jinxing: Video]

[Little Fu: (•̅_•̅)]

[Little Fu: Looks a bit creepy]

[FireFireFire: Aren’t you guys supposed to be scouting? Why are you slacking off in the cafeteria so early?]

[yao: Screw your horse, finished scouting early]

[FireFireFire: Damn]

...

The message was sent out, but no reply from the guild leader came for a long time.

Gu Jinxing lightly knitted his brows, considering whether to contact Ye Jiu privately to ask how to handle it.

Just as he was thinking, the employee suddenly stood up and walked out with the tray.

"He’s leaving, what now?" Hu Jiayao asked.

Without much hesitation, Gu Jinxing said, "Follow him, let’s see."

...

...

CEO’s Office.

Wen Nan had no time at all to check the group messages, he was busy having a heart-to-heart with his CEO, who was cold on the outside but soft on the inside.

The CEO maintained a high and aloof demeanor on the surface, speaking coolly and clearly, yet his rich inner thoughts shocked Wen Nan.

’Without affecting the company operations, I think taking it step by step, starting with dating, then moving in together, marriage, having kids...’

’No, we should first buy a well-located standalone villa, preferably decorated in black, white, and gray Nordic style, definitely not that tacky lavish style, but it seems not up to me alone...’

"Do you prefer black and white tones or golden tones?" Guan Ailin’s cool voice chimed in.

"Huh?"

Wen Nan was engrossed in the little theater of the other party’s inner voice, suddenly hearing Ailin’s real voice took him by surprise, snapping him out of his reverie.

Realizing her question was a bit abrupt, Guan Ailin hastily added, "I noticed your report uses a black background with white text. You probably prefer a minimalist black and white gray style, right?"

Wen Nan: ?

If he hadn’t heard the entirety of her inner voice, Wen Nan almost believed she was genuinely concerned about the style of the report.

But, clearly, you were asking about our home’s decoration style, right?

"It’s up to you."

Wen Nan blurted out.

Guan Ailin: ?

Wen Nan hurriedly changed his tune, "I mean, the style of the report, I can adjust it according to the company’s needs, anytime."

Guan Ailin nodded, "Mm."

On the surface, Ailin remained indifferent, but her inner theater resumed its performance:

’Still minimalist style, if it’s too bland, it could be spiced up with some vibrant furniture accents.’

’And two cats, one Ragdoll, one Silver Shaded, not enough, add another one...’

"Add a dog too."

Wen Nan couldn’t help but interject. freёnovelkiss.com

Guan Ailin: "...What?"

"Ahem, no, I mean," Wen Nan quickly explained, "There’s a movie, called Get a Dog, that’s just in theaters, wanna watch it together?"

Guan Ailin was stunned, her beautiful peach blossom eyes slightly widening in surprise as she looked at Wen Nan.

Wen Nan felt a little nervous under her gaze.

There isn’t such a movie, he just blurted it out, it could easily be exposed, but the CEO spoke again, not to expose him—

"You’re... asking me to a movie?"

"Ah, yes," Wen Nan smoothed his fingers over his sleeve, "Do you want to go?"

Guan Ailin’s eyelashes lowered, her thick lashes hid the emotions in her eyes.

She softly replied, "Mm."

’Ahhhhh! He’s asking me out! We’re going on a date! Ahhhh—’

In her mind, Guan Ailin’s inner voice was screaming halfway then abruptly stopped.

9527: [Your skill Mind Reading Technique has ended, now entering cooldown time.]

Wen Nan: [Didn’t I use Flower Tears to stack triple effect?]

9527: [The stacked 30-minute effect duration has been fully used, please be informed.]

Half an hour went by so quickly?

Wen Nan hurriedly stood up, "If there’s nothing else, shall I go first?"

"Mm." Guan Ailin blushed, watching Wen Nan leave.

Just as Wen Nan reached his workstation, his junior apprentice sister immediately rushed over, "Senior brother! How did it go?"

Wen Nan confidently smiled at her, "Rest assured, all settled."

"Wow!"

The junior apprentice sister let out a long sigh of relief, then suddenly jumped up and hugged Wen Nan, "Senior brother! You’re truly my hero!"

9527: [Congratulations, the target ’Mega Ice-Queen CEO’ current strategy degree increased to: 30%.]

9527: [Congratulations, the target ’Bubbly Newbie Junior Apprentice Sister’ current strategy degree increased to: 80%.]

Successfully passed the first round~

While supporting the junior apprentice sister and stabilizing her position to prevent her from falling, Wen Nan brought up the system in his mind.

Upon seeing the message from [Wenna Elders Core Group], his smile slightly faded.

After watching the video from Gu Jinxing, Wen Nan’s lips curled up again.

...

...

Gu Jinxing and Hu Jiayao followed the employee NPC around most of the office building before they finally received a reply from the guild leader.

Seeing the newly issued order from the leader, both were dumbfounded.
