【Stelle chuckled: "Ask your good brothers if they can hold their heads high and say the company is home? You treat your good brothers like family, but do they treat you like family?"】

【At this moment, a company specialist, 【one of Scott's good brothers】, said weakly: "... I'm just a grandson under Mr. Scott."】

【Scott's expression stiffened, and he gritted his teeth: "... A grandson, isn't that family?"】

【March 7th poked right through it: "Look, Scott, your brothers see things more clearly than you do."】

Livestream channel.

"Hahahahaha, good grief, he can even answer like that. Scott, you're really something."

"Working under Scott is truly the unluckiest thing in eight lifetimes."

"God, 'a grandson is family'—he can even spin it like that."

"Of course they see it clearly; the way he lectured his subordinates before was exactly like lecturing a grandson."

"Not to mention, what Scott said is exactly the same as how our boss talks."

"Me too. When our boss gives a speech, he sounds so kind, saying the company is a big family and employees are part of it, but when it comes to payday, he's stingy."

"Isn't this just workplace PUA? The boss is just feeding you empty promises."

"Exactly, heartless companies are all like this."

【In the game's story, Qingque also spoke up at this time: "I heard that the lowest-ranking employees in Pier-Point, as soon as they think of the company's technology and wealth, will involuntarily puff out their chests... but think carefully, does the company's achievements and wealth have anything to do with you?"】

【Facing the verbal offensive of Stelle, Qingque, and March 7th, Scott was already retreating step by step, but still stubborn: "O... of course it has something to do... with me."】

Livestream channel.

"Hahahahaha, I have to say, Qingque's words are truly piercing."

"Exactly, even I feel sad thinking about it."

"The prosperity and money of the company have nothing to do with most ordinary employees. I don't know why, but thinking about this makes me feel sad."

"But Scott's heart must be riddled with holes by now."

"Scott deserves it."

【In the game's story, facing March 7th's words, Scott said: "I participated in the Aurum Alley business... and I'm responsible for this batch of company transport ships... although these things don't seem big, without me, these things wouldn't get done!"】

【Hearing Scott's words, Stelle's demeanor became elegant, and she said quietly: "You care so much about the confidence the company gives you, have you ever thought that once you leave the company, you'll be nothing?"】

【At this point, Scott's momentum diminished significantly.】

Livestream channel.

"Holy crap, the Trailblazer is right."

"Exactly. For most ordinary employees of any enterprise, once they leave the enterprise, they really are nothing."

"Not to mention an organization like the Interastral Peace Corporation that spans the universe and the galaxy; employees like Scott are basically a dime a dozen..."

"..."

"I feel... is this talking about Scott? Why does it feel like it's talking about me?"

"Holy crap! Now that you mention it, it really is."

"Perhaps it's because ordinary employees like us are just too common."

【In the game's story, listening to Stelle, Scott wiped the cold sweat that had appeared on his forehead, his tone increasingly lacking confidence, yet still stubborn: —】

【"I... I am Scott, a former Interastral Peace Corporation employee!"】

【March 7th said at this time: "Listen to yourself, does that sound right? Is your name just a suffix for the company?"】

【Qingque also continued at this time: "Do you think your phone is fun in the middle of the night? Do you think sleeping in the morning is really comfortable? Do you earn 'miserable wages' all day, only to hear your boss say you're redundant..."】

【Scott listened to Qingque, completely breaking down, roaring painfully: "Don't, don't say it! Don't say it!"】

【Qingque ignored Scott and continued: "Try to think about your life outside of work; can you only think of two words?"】

【March 7th understood and whispered two words: "Over~time~!"】

【Scott was now trembling, repeating with a crying voice: "Don't say it, I beg you, don't say it—"】

Livestream channel.

"Don't say it! Don't say it!"

"Woooo, wasn't this just targeting Scott? Why is there AOE damage!"

"Don't say it, don't say it! This isn't talking about Scott at all; this is clearly talking about me!"

"Brothers, I've been broken by Qingque, woooo!!!"

"This is already a super break, okay!"

"Too terrifying, too terrifying. President Qing, I name you the strongest."

"This AOE damage just broke both me and Scott!"

"Pain~ too painful!!!"

"I didn't expect that without Miss Firefly and Boothill, Qingque could perform a Quantum super break all by herself."

"Brothers, I've been super broken too."

"These words have already hit the entire working class."

"Woooo, I'm broken too."

"Ah hahahahaha, shredded, super broken, ah hahahaha!"

"Buddy, calm down, wake up. Your laughter is making me a little scared."

March 7th looked at Scott and the livestream's breakdown, not knowing whether to be happy or sigh.

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses, sighed, and said: "This is the pain of most working people. Qingque just said all these pains out loud, which is why so many people are suffering."

【In the game's story, Qingque looked at Scott's current appearance, shook her head helplessly, and said: "According to my work philosophy, I actually don't want to say 【you are not important】; on the contrary, I would say 【you are very important】."】

【"Working person, you should be proud of living your life well, not for other things."】

【Scott was in tears, wiping his eyes, and said with a lost, sobbing voice: "I, I don't have a life of my own at all!"】

Livestream channel.

"Holy crap! Scott's words made me sink again."

"Damn it, I also want to have a life of my own. Why do I have to live so painfully every day?"

"It's simple: for the sake of living."

"For the sake of living, I have no life of my own. That's truly ironic."

"Sigh, life is hard. I am just a bitter person on this path."

【In the game's story, Stelle looked at Scott and said in a gentle tone: "Scott, have you ever thought that you could actually slow down, start by learning about tea, wiping, and tea culture? Then you will gain a new hobby and experience a brand-new lifestyle."】

【Scott rubbed his eyes, lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "I, I'm not interested in tea."】

【March 7th said at this time: "Interests can be cultivated. Learning how to savor the joys of life is very important."】

【After March 7th's final words, Scott was completely defeated in this negotiation.】

Livestream channel.

"Rare. I didn't expect the Trailblazer and little March to still be comforting Scott at the end."

"After all, everyone's goal was just to persuade Scott to repent sincerely."

"But after this wave, there are probably quite a few people who have been broken."

"No way around it. Qingque's words are as sharp as a sword, pointing directly at the pain points of working people. This AOE damage is comparable to a super break."
