Chapter 82
Mingfeng Bank 4
Pressing close to his chest, Su Yuan could clearly smell the cold, strange woody scent emanating from him, as if it had been deliberately scented. Through his clothes, she couldn't feel any warmth from a living person.
Su Yuan waited a long time for Lin Ye's response and began to doubt whether she had used the wrong approach.
This is a bit awkward. Should she let go on her own, or continue holding on?
"Number 04, let go."
Lin Ye's voice was deep, and his cold breath made the hairs on Su Yuan's neck stand on end.
She quickly released her grip, tears still clinging to her long eyelashes, and looked at Lin Ye with a pitiful yet restrained expression. Then she lowered her head and said in a tearful voice, "I'm...I'm sorry, Bank Manager."
"I was just too scared."
"thank you."
Su Yuan bowed ninety degrees to express her gratitude, wondering in her heart whether she should try a different approach.
"Thanks?"
As if he had heard a completely unfamiliar word, Lin Ye lowered his eyes to look at the little girl's trembling eyelashes, as if he were examining an interesting collectible.
[Ding! Affection +5!]
Current favorability rating: 5
Wow, it actually worked!
Su Yuan wanted to press her advantage and further increase her favorability.
As per previous practice, a strategy guide will appear when the favorability level reaches around 15.
The next second, she was enveloped from head to toe by a strange aura, rendering her unable to move and stiff as a puppet on strings.
Lin Ye twitched his fingers slightly, and she instantly floated up, her body moving forward uncontrollably, forced to meet his gaze.
"Number 04, shut your dirty thoughts. You're too arrogant."
The icy cold hand landed on her face, offering no comfort whatsoever, but rather as if suppressing some kind of impulse.
"Work hard."
What?
Dirty?
she?
Su Yuan's hands were itching.
The system urgently calls out: [Host, calm down!]
[The targets are incredibly diverse, so please be patient, host, and think of the generous rewards!]
The next moment, Su Yuan was put down and staggered a few steps before she could barely stand.
Su Yuan bit her lip, her face slightly pale, looking embarrassed that her thoughts had been exposed.
She swayed precariously, seemingly taking a long time to accept the rejection. "I'll just focus on my work now."
Su Yuan walked towards her workstation, turning back every step of the way, her gaze lingering on the ground every three steps, revealing her loneliness.
That bastard, she remembered it.
"System, next time choose like Ye Bai, understand?"
System: [QAQ, this is a database analysis recommendation, and the system cannot change it.]
Su Yuan muttered a curse, but it was no use.
[Host, please don't give up!]
Su Yuan sat back down at her workstation, her eyes gleaming with a desire to conquer. "As expected of a C-rank dungeon target, it's unique and challenging."
Just as the system was about to marvel at the host's ambition, the next second...
"The reward should be pretty good, at least it should be an offensive ability, right, System?" Su Yuan's tone carried a hint of threat.
The system trembled: [The system doesn't know.....]
Lin Ye glanced at the young woman at her workstation. Although she was pale and still shaken, she was able to immediately get into the best working condition.
Her sweet smile carries a fragile quality that evokes pity.
This face is truly worthy of being a collectible he spotted at first glance.
[Ding! Affection +5!]
Current favorability rating: 10
Su Yuan raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Salesperson No. 07, can the sow maternity insurance you recommended really reduce my losses?" Octopus revealed a sinister smile.
The male player nodded repeatedly, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
This was the most suitable insurance he could find.
The octopus suddenly grinned, "Then why aren't you smiling? Do you think I'm difficult to deal with?"
"Still not interested in me?"
The tentacles on his body writhed wildly.
The male player swallowed hard and gave the lobby manager a pleading look.
The latter simply ignored it.
The male player felt like the sky had fallen; this was completely different from before!
He forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Guest, I absolutely did not mean any disrespect or dissatisfaction towards you, it's just that..."
"I just had hemorrhoids removed a couple of days ago, and the pain is unbearable."
"Oh." The octopus gave a similar expression.
The male player immediately prepared the contract and handed over a pen for signing.
Octopus signed the document swiftly.
The male player finally breathed a sigh of relief, having successfully completed his first order.
He wiped away his sweat, maintaining a stiff smile.
An announcement came over the loudspeaker: "Business hours are closed for the morning. All sales staff are requested to proceed to the staff cafeteria for lunch. Business will resume in thirty minutes!"
In an instant, all the bank tellers who couldn't see anything amiss stood up and headed towards the staff canteen at the back of the bank.
Players followed suit one after another.
Su Yuan and the male college student player next door walked one after the other.
"Number 04?"
"Hello, I'm number 07, your neighbor."
Number 07 greeted them but did not reveal any personal information.
Su Yuan: "Mm."
That counts as having exchanged greetings.
Inside the staff canteen.
A thin man ate his staff meal with gusto, muttering dismissively, "A C-level mission is nothing special."
As long as you follow the procedures, there will be no danger whatsoever.
The bearded man who had initially warned them remained silent.
Another female player nodded in agreement, but unlike the men, she wasn't arrogant. She just wondered, "Isn't it too easy? I feel a little uneasy."
That player was small and looked like a monkey.
His number was 05.
He ate his food and suddenly whispered, "Has everyone seen the intern performance evaluation forms posted in the break room?"
The crowd shook their heads.
Number 05 continued, "The eerie world doesn't appear out of nowhere. That form shows our morning's performance."
"I completed four pawn transactions."
"Insurance business number 07 is 2."
"Loan business number 09 is 1"
"Deposit service number 03 is 7."
"Financial product business number 02 is 4."
Number 05 paused suddenly, his gaze falling on Number 04, Su Yuan. "Number 04's withdrawals: zero."
Everyone turned to look at the unassuming Su Yuan.
How did she manage to achieve zero sales without receiving any complaints?
Having witnessed some of the events, Number 07 chose to remain silent.
04 is someone who dares to give a bear hug to a bank president who is extremely high-risk—that's SSS-level extremely high-risk!
It is an existence whose survival rate will be infinitely close to zero once it appears in a dungeon!
He dared not say that he had encountered an SSS-level extremely dangerous situation, as that would only plunge everyone into despair prematurely.
Number 03 was also very puzzled, as he always had a strange feeling every time he completed a task.
Why did number 04 miss such a good opportunity to improve himself?
Suddenly, out of the corner of No. 05's eye, the stiff and blurry face of the lobby manager appeared.
She appeared straight up at the table, without making a sound.
Everyone held their breath.
The lobby manager called out Su Yuan's name, "Salesperson No. 04, since your performance is the worst today, you will be in charge of distributing the black pens."
"You might find what you're looking for in the storage room."
"How dare you, a lowly ant, touch the great bank president with your filthy body!"
"Punishment, severe punishment! Filthy things should be fed." - End of Questioning (Remaining attempts: 9)
Su Yuan calmly listened to the lobby manager's thoughts; as expected, the visitor was up to no good.
It seems there's something waiting for her in the storage room.
There are many people here, so let's give her some face.
She beamed with the joy of an employee being valued by their boss, saying, "Thank you for your trust, manager!"
The other players were bewildered in the wind.
Zero sales performance, but a great love for the job?
Is this reasonable?
