Chapter 8: Smiles

"I'm glad you've finally figured it out." Xu Mengyuan said, "Taylor and Mr. Qin, they should be very happy to hear this news." ”

"They always want you to take on the mission of saving humanity, it's something you've been born with...... Duty. ”

"Hephaestus told you on the first day you arrived at the company, not everyone has the ability to travel across planes, in fact there are very few travelers across planes, especially those with a [Reborn] godhead.

"You are destined to be the savior, and your people will thank you for your sacrifice and dedication."

Li Yu patiently listened to Xu Mengyuan's words, and then said, "So can my vacation end?" I have to go to work on Monday. ”

"Of course, but before you go to work, you can come to the headquarters first, Director Taylor still has some things to talk to you about, mainly about your next job."

"What's next? Didn't he want me to continue my mission and absorb believers? ”

"That's right, but there are more specific details to be discussed, and you've won the other contenders, and the board of directors is going to start pouring more resources and more help into you, and Director Taylor wants to hear from you."

"Alright, I'll be there early Monday morning."

"Well, it would be nice if you could come now...... Director Taylor happens to be in the company. ”

Li Yu was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll be there soon." ”

He went downstairs, first took a taxi to the industrial park, and then drove his car to the office building of the Third Age.

Although it was already Sunday, the attendance rate of the nearby office buildings was quite high.

From time to time, you can see hurried commuters pouring out of buses and subway stations.

Li Yu parked the car in the underground parking lot, took the elevator upstairs, and saw the familiar logo of the third era when he went out.

The front desk lady still remembered Li Yu, and smiled at him when she saw him coming, Li Yu also smiled back, and then he saw a head poking out of the office of the equipment department, where he was looking around sneakily.

After seeing Li Yu, he immediately shrank back.

After a while, Li Yu saw Hephaestus holding an enamel water cup, pretending to go to tea and receive water, and said in a low voice when he passed by Li Yu's side.

"Be careful with that woman."

"Which woman?" Li Yu asked.

The mixed-race handsome guy wanted to say something more, but at this time, Xu Mengyuan had already walked out of the office.

Hephaestus closed his mouth and hurried into the pantry with his enamel cup that emblazoned the hope of the whole village.

Xu Mengyuan walked over to Li Yu, "You're here, great, come with me, they're already waiting for you." ”

"Didn't you say that only Director Taylor wanted to see me? Is Mr. Qin here too? Li Yu asked as he walked with her.

"Mr. Qin has other things to do, he didn't come, and there is one more person you can know when you go in." Xu Mengyuan knocked on the door of a room.

A moment later Taylor's voice came from inside, "Come in." ”

Xu Mengyuan pushed open the door for Li Yu, but she herself stopped, "Good luck." ”

"Thank you."

After thanking Li Yu, he walked inside the door, and the first thing that caught his eye was a star-striped banner and an eagle flag, hanging on both sides, and in front of them was a magnificent oak table.

Taylor was sitting behind that desk at this point, and there was another person in the office besides her.

It was also a woman, sitting opposite Taylor, she looked younger than Taylor, less than thirty years old, wearing a white suit, short blonde hair, no jewelry or necklace on her body, the whole person looked very capable.

When Li Yu entered the door, she didn't look up, still flipping through the stack of documents in front of her.

She read quickly, and in a moment she turned to the last page, and then raised her head.

"Well, do you have any questions?" Taylor asked.

"Nope." The blonde woman said, "I will resolutely carry out the tasks assigned to me by the board." ”

"Good." Taylor said, after speaking, she looked at Li Yu again, "Let me introduce you, this is Kayden, Kayden Stone, she graduated from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania with a double major in finance and operations and information management.

"Having worked on Wall Street, the Washington Post and the governor's office, she is very smart, with an IQ above 160, proficient in seven Chinese, and most importantly very loyal to her own ethnic group, which is not common among smart people.

"I'm sure she'll be your great helper."

Hearing this, Kayden finally looked at Li Yu, she stood up from her chair, took the lead in stretching out a hand, and said in very standard Chinese, "Hello, Mr. Savior." ”

Li Yu didn't shake hands with her and looked at Taylor, "What does this mean?" ”

"That's literally," Cayden said with a smile as he continued to shake hands and invite him to shake hands, "the board of directors thinks your work is too hard and has sent me to assist you."

"Oh, I heard you were going to take a break for a while, and I'm planning to help you manage your company for the time being."

Taylor waved his hand, "Li Yu is also a smart person, there is no need to go around in circles like this, Kayden." ”

"Okay." Kayden's smile remained unchanged, "Ms. Taylor and several other directors like you, but your previous performance has disappointed them, and even if you are lost now, we don't know if you can be trusted."

"So to be on the safe side, the board of directors has sent me to oversee your work and make you more controllable, and we will work together in the future, and hopefully we can have a good time working together."

Taylor shrugged, "Don't think too much about it, the overseer is just in passing, and Kayden's main mission is to go to another plane to assist you and promote the advent plan." She's a rare and excellent assistant, though not as gifted as you. ”

"I'm just a stupid mortal." Kayden's hand was still in the air, "But I'm proud to be a part of this great project." ”

"But you just said that she is just an ordinary person and can't travel across planes, are you going to use new technology to send her there first?"

Li Yu didn't argue with Taylor about the assistant anymore, because Taylor had already made it clear that Kayden was the eyeliner that the board of directors had placed beside him, and Li Yu couldn't push it off.

"Oh, that's a waste of faith," Caydon said, "and we'll just do it the old way." ”

As she spoke, she took out a small lady's pistol from her pocket, aimed it at her temple, and winked at Li Yu, "We'll see you on the other side." ”

After saying that, she pulled the trigger without hesitation, and the next moment the blood splattered on the magnificent oak table, and Cayden's body fell weakly on the carpet.

However, the smile on her lips still hung on the corner of her mouth.
