Chapter 20: Public Execution

Shen Huai's mouth twitched.

The next moment.

He felt a crowd of naked, gossiping gazes all snap toward her.

Yu Xiang had not yet realized she had posted in the wrong group, and messages were popping up incessantly.

【Sister Yeman asked him to coordinate with me, I almost fainted on the spot! God, I have zero resistance to this type!】

【Military Advisors, hurry, hurry, hurry! How should I reply to him? Waiting online.】

Watching the messages Yu Xiang sent.

Shen Huai's habit of feeling embarrassed for others flared up again.

He hurriedly let his fingers fly, sweating profusely as he messaged Yu Xiang to remind her: 【You posted to the company's main group.】

The instant it was sent.

That side went instantly quiet as a mouse.

Through the screen, Shen Huai could practically feel Yu Xiang's soul-crushing scream.

【Artist Management Department Group 2 Executive Agent-Yu Xiang recalled a message】

【Artist Management Department Group 2 Executive Agent-Yu Xiang recalled a message】

【Artist Management Department Group 2 Executive Agent-Yu Xiang recalled a message】

【……】

It was just a pity.

It was already too late.

The main group had over ten thousand people, and the message Yu Xiang sent by mistake had long been screenshotted and saved by the gossiping masses, and even quickly turned into a mocking meme.

In a media company, the ability to stir up trouble is top-tier.

"God, I have zero resistance to this type~ yo~" Wan Dequan teased, looking like he enjoyed the chaos.

The oily, greasy imitation made everyone in Group 2 burst into laughter.

Only Tong Yue, her right hand gripping the mouse tighter and tighter, nearly peeling off the casing.

This Shen Huai.

It was only his first day on the job, and he had already made the entire office atmosphere foul and murky.

Even her own state of mind had been greatly affected.

As long as she saw his face晃 in front of her, Tong Yue would always involuntarily lose focus, unable to stop herself from paying attention to what he was doing.

Thinking of those ambiguous conversations between the two in Lin Yeman's office.

Tong Yue felt a surge of bitterness in her heart.

This person is simply a disaster!

"What's so funny? Is it very funny?"

Tong Yue swept a cold gaze over them, and Wan Dequan and the others instantly shut their mouths.

Her gaze landed on Shen Huai's face.

Lips pressed tight, she looked at his face, seemingly deep in thought.

A moment later, she gently pulled open a drawer and took out a face mask.

"For this period of time, you are to wear a mask while you work for me."

？？？

Shen Huai took the mask, feeling completely bewildered: "Why? I'm not sick, and it won't affect anyone's health."

"But your face will affect them."

Tong Yue said righteously: "It's only your first day, and you've already caused so many absurd things, and you say it hasn't had an effect?"

"My Group 2 is the Public Relations Department Planning Group, not a place for you, Shen Huai, to go on blind dates. Cover up that face of yours that could topple kingdoms, and stop晃 in front of me, it's annoying!"

Tong Yue deliberately emphasized the word "annoying" at the end.

This reason truly made Shen Huai laugh.

Being handsome had actually become his fault.

Unable to resist temptation herself, she still pushed the responsibility onto him; isn't this the classic case of "the innocent man is guilty because of his treasure."

This woman.

Truly is, as always, unreasonable.

Jiang Xinxin gently pushed up her glasses, staring with gossiping eyes as she whispered: "Team Leader Tong's Dao heart seems a bit unstable this time."

"I feel embarrassed for her just hearing that reason," Qi Mingfei sighed, shaking his head.

"This Yu Xiang is probably going to become a thorn in Team Leader Tong's side from now on," Wan Dequan raised his eyebrows with an "I'll wait and see" expression.

"What are you few talking about over there again?" Tong Yue snapped, "Didn't you hear the recording of Lin Bitch... Lin Yeman? We need to cooperate with their Artist Management Department to do a half-month-long public opinion PR campaign. Think hard about how to keep the heat on that newcomer surnamed Li for half a month!"

"After all, that's a newcomer Team Leader Lin values so much! We have to rush to fawn over them, right, Shen Huai?" Tong Yue shot a sour glare at Shen Huai.

One Lin Yeman was enough.

Even the people under her were all so infatuated and shallow.

Truly, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower ones will be askew!

Tong Yue thought indignantly.

After venting her anger, she ignored everyone else and hung her head behind her computer screen alone.

Shen Huai sighed.

Forget it, the things that happened today were already dramatic enough.

Even if a few more dramatic things happened in a while, his heart was already calm and unruffled.

As for Yu Xiang, ever since Shen Huai reminded her just now that she had sent the message to the wrong group, there had been no further movement from her.

Shen Huai guessed that Yu Xiang had not yet accepted the social death of this bolt from the blue, so he simply decided not to disturb her for the time being.

Shen Huai reopened his computer, preparing to sort out his thoughts first.

He would turn the matters Lin Yeman had handed over to him into a document, and while he was at it, create a preliminary execution plan.

Although his relationships with these women were intricate and complex.

They were, after all, already a thing of the past.

What's more, he was here to work; professional capability was the real priority.

He opened the document and had only typed a few lines.

A notification suddenly popped up on the computer screen: 【Current battery level is below 20%, please charge in time.】

Seeing this, Shen Huai suddenly felt a sense of unease.

He reached into his computer bag to feel around, and his inner unease instantly turned into reality.

Damn it.

He had left the house in such a hurry that he had actually forgotten to bring his power adapter.

A computer is not like a mobile phone where you can borrow a shared power bank at any time; it must use a dedicated computer charger to charge.

20% battery can only support 20 minutes at most.

That's not enough at all! Shen Huai pondered for a moment, took out his phone, and clicked on the small group he had just joined today, "Today Did the Company Go Bankrupt Yet".

【Excuse me, do you know where there is a computer power adapter for sale nearby? I forgot to bring mine.】

Very quickly, a message popped up.

Jiang Xinxin: 【Our company supermarket has them, the selection is quite complete; basically, all mainstream computer power adapters on the market are available.】

Shen Huai felt a sense of amazement inside.

As expected of a big company, they actually have a supermarket inside the company.

Shen Huai: 【Thanks for letting me know, I'll go buy one right now.】

Shen Huai stood up and intended to walk outside.

Suddenly, his footsteps paused, and he lowered his head to ponder for a while.

Finally, Shen Huai grabbed the black mask that Tong Yue had given him, put it on without a word, and only then did he step out again.

Every floor of Xingyao has an administrative floor plan for the entire building.

The supermarket Jiang Xinxin mentioned was on the first floor, occupying a full third of the space.

It wasn't off-duty time yet, so there weren't many people in the supermarket, and it wasn't crowded.

Shen Huai walked in wearing his mask.

He saw a young woman standing at the cashier counter.

With her back to Shen Huai, she was holding a feather duster, standing on tiptoe, and trying hard to dust the very top.

"Hello, may I ask if you have power adapters here?"

The girl didn't even turn her head and continued cleaning: "If you have something to say, just say it; I am the shop assistant."

Shen Huai was stunned for a moment before he realized that the girl had misunderstood his meaning.

He cleared his throat and explained: "Sorry, I meant the kind of power adapter that you plug in."

The girl's hand stopped in mid-air.

He saw a pair of beautiful eyes glaring at Shen Huai with a mix of shame and anger—

"Pervert!"
