Chapter 61: Is he usually this brave?

Looking at the prizes displayed on the system interface, Zhou Yi was not the type to act like the protagonists in those web novels who pretend to be aggrieved while actually benefiting, because that would be like having one's cake and eating it too.

He was just an ordinary young man who had received a system for no reason; being able to get prizes now already put him ahead of who knows how many people.

It was just... Zhou Yi was a bit conflicted; if this prize had been given to him a few days ago, he absolutely would have been ecstatic!

But now, he felt a little hesitant.

Because the reward displayed on the system interface was, quite shockingly, a car!

The kind of car with Four Circles; it wasn't the top-tier luxury car he had imagined, nor was it the kind of budget car that only cost a few tens of thousands, it was just that kind of... oil-burning car.

Of course, for him now, the issue wasn't whether it could burn oil, but whether he could afford to put gas in it...

It was just that Zhou Yi found it a bit strange: why was the reward the system gave this time so precise?

Could it be because he had seen Director Wang from his former Company driving this car and had once felt envious?

Forget it, having a car as a reward is better than having nothing; the key is that besides this car, there was also a parking space in the system's rewards.

"Yuefu Small Residential District, underground garage, spot B032!"

This was his parking space.

"System, claim reward!" Zhou Yi said happily.

Even if he couldn't afford the gas later, wouldn't it be just as good to turn around and sell the car?

"System reward has been issued!"

Accompanying the sound, Zhou Yi already knew that the car was now parked in the spot, and the car keys had appeared on his desk.

After picking up the car keys, Zhou Yi became excited; it had to be said, men are just like that—the things they like are nothing more than those: beautiful women, famous cars, and men.

And just as Zhou Yi was planning to go see his car, he suddenly saw a line of numbers appear at the bottom of the system interface.

Current tasks completed: 2/5, Evaluation: Serious ordinary person.

Zhou Yi could be certain that he hadn't seen this line of text before, so was this something that refreshed after he completed two tasks?

Then that meant if he completed three more tasks, this evaluation would change?

As a veteran gamer and a fan of plot-heavy stories, Zhou Yi had always been sensitive to such changes!

It was just that this system was like a riddle-master; other systems would at least say "cannot disclose," but his system was usually as dead as a doornail.

But he couldn't guess anything now, so Zhou Yi scurried toward the underground garage; the Elevator in their residential building went directly to the garage, though he had never been there before.

Once in the garage, Zhou Yi's first feeling was that it was a bit eerie here.

Not to mention anything else, being here alone in the middle of the night would still make one a bit scared.

Following the direction indicated by the arrows, Zhou Yi quickly found his parking space and saw the Four Circles A6 issued by the system; the pure black, sleek body immediately caught Zhou Yi's eye!

At this moment, no matter what he had thought before, at least at this point in time, Zhou Yi felt his heart pounding wildly.

He was also a person with a car now; this feeling was really too good, just like when he had first seen his house!

He went up to it, looked left and right, sat inside to get a good feel for it—the feeling was absolutely amazing.

Every car owner has had this experience: the first car in one's life is very precious at the beginning, and one really wishes they could guard it day and night.

They would wash it from time to time, and drive it cautiously, not daring to push it, for fear of it getting hurt.

But after a long time, they wouldn't take it to heart anymore; what is a car wash? If it doesn't rain, I'm not washing the car!

Zhou Yi naturally hadn't reached that state yet; after staring at it for a long time, he decided to take it out for a spin!

He had already passed his driver's license test long ago; back in college, many people went in groups to sign up for driving school, only to never touch a car again after getting the license...

Fortunately, after Zhou Yi returned to his hometown, he often drove his father's Wuling Hongguang, so he still had a bit of a feel for it.

It's just, where to go? Right, he seemed to have received a Lawyer's Letter yesterday, so he might as well go to his former Company and look around.

Didn't Lawyer Fang say it? He had to tell them: whoever doesn't file a Lawsuit is a coward!

No problem, let's go!

He, Zhou Yi, was absolutely not going there to show off his new car; he was not that kind of person!

Meanwhile, inside Zhou Yi's former Company, Chairman Zhao Youde was looking at his brother-in-law in front of him and saying, "So, up to now, you still haven't resolved this matter?"

Wang Yuxing, also known as Director Wang, said helplessly, "Brother-in-law, this really can't be blamed on me; it's mainly because that kid seems... seems a bit thick-headed."

"We will file a Lawsuit immediately after the Arbitration ends, and I have already contacted peers in the industry; at the very least, if Zhou Yi goes for interviews during this period, he basically won't pass."

"I originally planned to wait for him to contact us, but I didn't hear back, so I sent another Lawyer's Letter; if he doesn't agree to out-of-court Mediation, then we will sue him!"

"Sue him for causing huge losses to the Company due to his own reasons while on the job."

Zhao Youde nodded; an Employee resigning was just a small matter to him, and Jiacheng Design Company had a high reputation in the industry. The reason he asked more about it was mainly because such a thing had never happened before.

Previous Employees would basically be fine once intimidated; if any were unhappy, they would just drag them along, go through various procedures slowly, and once their spirit was worn down, give them a little sweetness and it would be over.

"Is he not looking for a job? He just graduated a year ago, and I heard his family situation is just so-so, and he's not even a local of Jingzhou," Zhao Youde asked, equally puzzled.

Director Wang shook his head: "I don't know either; anyway, I haven't heard any news that he's already working."

"Fine, resolve it as soon as possible. He has to work eventually. Young people nowadays, none of them know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is; they just quit a perfectly good job. Hurry up and recruit people; you need to teach the young people you hire well."

Wang Yuxing nodded and then pushed the door open to walk out. As soon as he arrived at the designer office area, he heard a burst of noise.

"Why aren't you all working properly? Zhou Yi?"

It was this Director Wang who had spotted Zhou Yi from the crowd at a glance; the other party was there greeting some former colleagues.

Heh, this is truly a coincidence; they were just talking about him, and he thought he was so tough—didn't he just come knocking on the door?

Director Wang chuckled to himself; young people are indeed young people.

"Zhou Yi, what are you here for? Don't forget you've already been fired by the Company; you are no longer a person of this Company!" Director Wang walked up to Zhou Yi, stood with his hands behind his back, and said with a stern face.

The colleagues in the office area also stopped talking and were peeking over with gossiping expressions.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi raised his head and smiled: "Eh, Director Wang, didn't you ask me to come? You even specifically had our Company's legal department send me a Lawyer's Letter, saying that if I don't agree to out-of-court Mediation, you'll file a Lawsuit against me?"

"Saying that I caused huge losses to the Company in my previous work?"

"Director Wang, you have to have a conscience when you speak. I worked at the Company for a year, diligent and conscientious, working overtime until I was almost ruined, and now you say I caused huge losses to the Company? Why didn't you say that earlier!"

So that was the matter; the other colleagues in the office were even more curious, as they knew this former colleague of theirs was in a Lawsuit with the Company.

In that case, it wouldn't be convenient to talk outside, so Director Wang coughed and said, "It's this, let's go to the office to talk."

But then again, it seems the other party is truly afraid, which is normal; anyone would be afraid if such a thing happened to them.

And it's not as if there haven't been precedents!

However, Zhou Yi just stood there and said, "No need, Director Wang, surely there's nothing between us that can't be seen by others, let's just talk here; tell me, how did I cause the Company huge losses? How come I don't know about it?"

"Fine, we'll talk here. Previously, you caused losses to the Company, and the Company intended to cultivate you, so we didn't tell you. But now, you don't even plan to work here anymore, so naturally, the Company must recoup those losses. Is there a problem with that?"

Zhou Yi smiled upon hearing this; Director Wang was truly worthy of being Director Wang, as this speech was delivered in such a high-sounding manner, and the sense of regret in that tone made it feel as if he were the one who had let the Company down.

"Since that's the case, then it's fine, Director Wang, I'll be leaving now."

Hmm... huh? Director Wang was stunned: "You... are leaving?"

"That's right, I'm not agreeing to out-of-court Mediation, so that's that, you all can go ahead and file a Lawsuit."

"By the way, Director Wang, I have to say one thing: whoever doesn't file a Lawsuit is a coward!"

After saying this, Zhou Yi turned and walked away, leaving only Director Wang standing there with a bewildered look on his face.

This person, is this Zhou Yi usually this brave?
