Guo Xingxing's face turned a sickly shade of purple, the veins on his forehead bulging. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Chen Yang with a deadly stare.
He finally realized this guy had been leading him into a trap from the very beginning. It was all his fault for being too confident, too blind, for jumping into the pit without a moment's hesitation. He could back out, but if he did, how could he possibly continue to work in this department? If he went through with what the agreement said... My God. Just thinking about it made him want to smash his head against the wall.
Seeing Guo Xingxing speechless, those who usually couldn't stand his arrogance started to chime in.
"Bro Xing, you're the one who demanded a signed agreement. Are you really going to back out now?"
"You're a grown man. You wouldn't go back on your word, would you?"
"The bet was your idea, and you insisted on the written agreement. If you back out now, as your colleague, even I'd be embarrassed for you."
"Of course, if you don't consider yourself a man, you can just pretend we didn't say anything."
Given Guo Xingxing's personality, it was normal for him to have made enemies, and onlookers always loved a good show.
Guo Xingxing's face turned a dark, liverish color, and his fists clenched tightly. In the end, he couldn't bear to lose his job.
"You… You guys play too rough!" Zhang Xiaoyan exclaimed in shock. Perhaps unable to process the impending scene, she said no more and ran out of the room.
Running naked through every department? How could they even think of something like that?!
Chen Yang patted Guo Xingxing on the shoulder with a chummy expression. "How about this? I'll allow you to keep your underwear on."
"Really?" Guo Xingxing blurted out, looking at Chen Yang in disbelief. Is this guy setting another trap? He knew that if their positions were reversed, he absolutely wouldn't make any concessions.
"Of course," Chen Yang said, nodding solemnly. "I always keep my word."
"Mr. Chen already made a concession! If you're a man, get moving!" the crowd chimed in again.
"W-Well, okay then!"
Guo Xingxing could only nod. He knew full well that the only reason he could thrive here and earn millions a year was because of the platform Qin Corporation provided. How could he possibly give that up?
Compared to money, what was a little loss of face? After weighing his options, Guo Xingxing became even more resolute.
Then, spurred on by a sea of expectant eyes, Guo Xingxing began to undress. Some of the more bashful girls hastily covered their faces.
"Haha, are those yellow Pikachu underwear?"
"Oh my God! Bro Xing, I never knew that beneath that manly exterior beats the heart of a maiden!"
Guo Xingxing was mortified. He couldn't stay any longer and ran out like the wind.
"Sales Champion, if you dare miss a single department, you'll have to bear the consequences!" Chen Yang shouted after him.
The Human Resources Department was right next door to the Sales Department. Naturally, that was Guo Xingxing's first stop.
The sight of a man in Pikachu underwear suddenly storming in left everyone in the HR Department completely dumbstruck.
What in the world was going on?
"Ah! Pervert!"
The HR department, which was predominantly female, erupted in shrill screams. Teacups, fruit, folders, and various other objects were hurled at Guo Xingxing.
Guo Xingxing scrambled to cover his head and fled in a panic.
In an instant, the entire Qin Corporation was in an uproar. Guo Xingxing became like a rat everyone wanted to swat.
「At the same time」
One call after another reached the Security Department.
A flasher had infiltrated the company? Unacceptable! If any of the company's beauties got scared, the security team would be held responsible, and their consciences would never be clear.
Thus, a group of security guards quickly assembled, determined to find the exhibitionist even if they had to tear the place apart.
However, just as they were about to set off, a man wearing only underwear ran in like a gust of wind.
The security guards stared.
Guo Xingxing froze.
Pikachu underwear? How disgusting!
"Um…" Guo Xingxing started to explain.
"Brothers, get him!"
At the security director's command, dozens of guards surged forward and instantly engulfed Guo Xingxing.
"Wait, let me explain!"
"Argh! Can't you be a little gentler?!"
"…"
「Back in the Sales Department」
"Mr. Chen, can you tell us how you closed this deal?" Lv Haihuan asked with a wide grin as she brewed a fresh cup of tea for Chen Yang.
"Yeah, tell us about it! It would be great if you could teach us a trick or two!" Hou Qiang immediately chimed in.
Everyone else pricked up their ears.
If they could learn even a single trick, it would mean cold, hard cash in their pockets!
Zhou Yufei also looked over, her curiosity piqued.
"Just luck," Chen Yang said with a dismissive wave. "Back when I was a Martial Guard, I happened to befriend a colleague from a logistics department. I gave him a call today, and as luck would have it, they needed to purchase a batch of medicine."
"You sold our medicine to the Martial Department? Badass!" Hou Qiang exclaimed, giving a thumbs-up.
Lv Haihuan's eyes sparkled. "So Mr. Chen used to be a Martial Guard. No wonder you're so skilled!"
Most of the others, however, were internally sighing about Chen Yang's good luck. If he didn't have that connection, and if the timing hadn't been perfect, he wouldn't have accomplished anything, right? Such good fortune was truly enviable.
Zhou Yufei nodded in understanding. Her opinion of Chen Yang had already improved quite a bit, but she decided to reserve final judgment.
Just then, Guo Xingxing returned.
However… one look at his current state left everyone stunned.
His face was bruised and swollen, his body was covered in filth, and streaks of raw egg dripped from his clothes.
What in the world had happened to him?
"Bro Xing, did you get beaten up?" Hou Qiang couldn't help but ask.
"Shut up!" Guo Xingxing roared, sweeping a chilling glare over everyone. "Nobody talk to me!"
Before today, he had always been in the limelight, shining as brightly as the sun. Now, he was Qin Corporation's public enemy number one. And it was all thanks to Chen Yang!
After putting his clothes back on, Guo Xingxing shot a cold glare at Chen Yang. "This isn't over. We'll see about this!"
With those words, he grabbed his bag and stormed out, slamming the door behind him.
"Okay, everyone, back to work," Zhou Yufei said, dispersing the crowd.
Chen Yang watched her with a smile, waiting for what she would say next.
"What are you looking at me for?" Zhou Yufei asked, folding her arms.
Before Chen Yang could speak, Zhou Yufei smiled softly. "Let's have dinner together tonight."
"I already said I'm having dinner with my wife," Chen Yang refused flatly.
Zhou Yufei's smile widened. "This is for work, so you have to listen to me. Besides, I already texted the Chairman. I'm taking you to meet a client tonight!"
Chen Yang was left speechless.
