At MJ Technology, City G.
The company run by Mu Sijue was definitely a rising star within the technological industry.
Not long after it was established, the company, as a black horse, occupied a certain market share, looking like it aimed to enter the international market.
The young MJ Technology created an energetic, open, and free working atmosphere for its employees.
It was known in the industry that there was no punishment for coming late or leaving early at MJ Technology.
Its employees said that even if they didn’t work all day, no one would deduct their money from their wages, let alone coming late or leaving early.
Why?
It was because MJ did not ask employees to punch time clocks or keep a record of employees’ attendance. Therefore, no one would care when you arrived.
This made a large number of people envious—what a great experience working at MJ!
If you wanted to work, went to work. If not, slept at home!
The employees shook their heads. As they had never been late or left early, they didn’t know how it felt.
Someone may argue that why didn’t you take advantage of the loophole in the company’s system and slack off?
The employees could only say that you were still too naive.
Although MJ did not record employees’ attendance, it had the strictest knock-out system!
If one made a mistake at work, he would be fired immediately.
Moreover, there was a rumor that employees fired by MJ Technology were all unqualified!
It would be super hard for them to find a new job.
Therefore, no one dared to slack off at MJ Technology even if there was no time clock. Everyone arrived at the company early and take the initiative to work overtime.
After all, throughout the country, MJ was the technology company offering the best welfare and enjoying the reputation of “the second Lu Enterprises”, which made its employees unwilling to leave!
Then was there anyone daring to skip work?
Yes!
It was Mu Sijue, the president of MJ Technology!
It was good enough for Mu Sijue to stay at the company for four hours during an 8-hour working day. What was worse, Mu Sijue often disappeared. It was common not to see him for ten days or half a month.
For example, the employees had not seen Mu Sijue for a very long time during this period. Those who dealt with company affairs were the vice president and Ah Guang.
Mu Sijue seemed to vanish in the world.
However, Mu Sijue suddenly appeared at MJ Technology yesterday afternoon, which surprised the whole company.
Mu Sijue was dressed entirely in black, looking mysterious and powerful. He walked with a firm stride, just like a god, which made others involuntarily trust and follow him.
He was the charismatic man in the legend.
One word to describe him: handsome!
Unfortunately, few people dared to approach such a handsome man. Moreover, based on the experience of the employees, Mu Sijue would not stay at the company for too long.
They had joked in private that the “no attendance record” system was designed for Mu Sijue himself because he was the only person who would come late, leave early, or skip work.
But to everyone’s surprise, this time, Mu Sijue stayed at the company for two entire days.
Since yesterday, Mu Sijue had been in the office and never left. It was said that he even had meals there.
The employees questioned that was the company going to close down?
However, Mu Sijue had his unique business philosophy and the company had a bright future!
He suddenly became a workaholic?
Well, it was black humor to joke about a person who worked for 4 hours and slept for 40 hours.
Everyone in the company was confused and guessing. Most of them just took it as a fun topic to chat about.
Only Ah Guang, who knew the truth, was anxious.
As soon as he returned to City G yesterday, Mu Sijue came to the company alone after settling Aunt Zhou.
Ah Guang thought that Mu Sijue would, as usual, leave the company after finishing what needed him to deal with in person.
However, Mu Sijue didn’t leave and even worked all night without closing his eyes.
He who usually worked for four hours a day had been working for over 24 hours in these two days.
Ah Guang tried to persuade Mu Sijue to take a break several times but was given icy glares.
However, it couldn’t go on like this. If Mu Sijue collapsed, City G would be in chaos!
In the afternoon, Ah Guang slogged his guts out and shouted, “Seventh Brother, no matter how you torture yourself, things will not change! Sister Youning won’t come back. Your child won’t come back!”
Xu Youning was like a thorn in Mu Sijue’s heart. It could not be pulled out and would always ache in that sensitive place.
The loss of his child, which was a forever regret, was like a knockout punch in Mu Sijue’s heart.
Ah Guang’s words opened up Mu Sijue’s wounds.
Mu Sijue put down his pen and looked at Ah Guang coldly, ordering, “Get out.”
“Seventh Brother!” Ah Guang exposed Mu Sijue, “are you escaping?”
That was the only possibility Ah Guang could think of.
Both the baby and Xu Youning had left him, breaking Mu Sijue’s imagination for the bright future. He didn’t want to face such a tragic fact so that he numbed himself by working hard and didn’t give himself time to think about Xu Youning and the baby.
Mu Sijue sneered and said, “Escaping from whom? Xu Youning?”
“…”
Ah Guang was more or less afraid of Mu Sijue. At this time, he didn’t dare to answer Mu Sijue’s question directly.
Nobody knew whether Mu Sijue was happy or angry now!
If he riled Mu Sijue, he would be done for!
Before Ah Guang responded, Mu Sijue emphasized with a cold voice, “I’ve told you long ago that Xu Youning has nothing to do with us from now on. If she threatens our interests, kill her without mercy!”
Ah Guang was astonished and looked at Mu Sijue in shock, saying, “Seventh Brother, you…”
How would Mu Sijue kill Xu Youning?
“Damn, he must lose his mind in his work!”
In fact, it was not the case.
Mu Sijue looked completely sober and calm. “Do you need me to repeat it?”
Ah Guang shook his head hurriedly, answering, “No, Seventh Brother. I’ll get out.”
He went straight back to the old house of the Mu family.
After returning to City G yesterday, Mu Sijue didn’t send Aunt Zhou to the hospital. Instead, he settled Aunt Zhou in the old house and hired two reliable nurses to take care of the old lady.
Since Mu Sijue didn’t come back all day, Aunt Zhou was very worried and about to call Ah Guang to ask about Mu Sijue’s whereabouts when Ah Guang appeared in the old house.
Aunt Zhou hurriedly called Ah Guang over and asked, “Where is Little Seven?”
“Seventh Brother is crazy,” Ah Guang scratched his head, “Aunt Zhou, do you know what he said to me? He told me to kill Sister Youning without mercy if she threatens us.”
Aunt Zhou’s face turned pale. “Will Little Seven really kill Youning?” she asked.
“No, I think,” Ah Guang thought for a moment and said firmly, “Seventh Brother must go mad! If he really wants to kill Sister Youning, he would have done it yesterday. How could we have the chance to do that?”
Aunt Zhou agreed with him. Then she remembered something important and asked, “Ah Guang, what is Little Seven busy with? Why hasn’t he come home yet?”
Ah Guang answered hesitantly, “Seventh Brother is dealing with business affairs at the company. He has been working since yesterday without closing his eyes.”
Aunt Zhou checked the time and found Mu Sijue had been working continuously for more than 24 hours.
He would wear himself out.
Aunt Zhou said immediately, “Ah Guang, tell Little Seven that I fainted.”
“What?” Ah Guang looked at Aunt Zhou in confusion, “Aunt Zhou, why… why did you faint?”
“That’s easy,” Aunt Zhou taught him, “you can tell Little Seven that I was irritated and fainted when I heard he was going to kill Youning.
Ah Guang wanted to cry. “Aunt Zhou, Seventh Brother will beat me to death.”
He had irritated Aunt Zhou to faint once yesterday. If the tragedy repeated today, Mu Sijue would definitely not let him off. He didn’t want that!
“Don’t worry. I won’t really faint. You just trick Little Seven to come back,” Aunt Zhou said, “Ah Guang, if you don’t help me, I will faint.”
Yes, Aunt Zhou was threatening Ah Guang.
Su Jian’an had said that there might be a misunderstanding between Mu Sijue and Xu Youning. She promised Su Jian’an to help investigate the whole thing.
But now Mu Sijue blacklisted Xu Youning. What was the point of finding the truth if Xu Youning was killed by Mu Sijue?
She had to stop Mu Sijue.
Ah Guang hesitated for a while. But he finally dialed Mu Sijue’s number and told him in an overwhelmed tone that Aunt Zhou had fainted.
Mu Sijue, who was at MJ Technology, suddenly stood up and said, “I’ll be right back!”
It usually took 30 minutes to drive from the CBD to the old house.
However, Mu Sijue came back in less than 20 minutes. Ah Guang went out and just ran into him.
Mu Sijue grabbed Ah Guang’s collar and asked, “Why did Aunt Zhou faint?”
Ah Guang answered with a tired look on his face, “Because I told Aunt Zhou that you are going to kill Sister Youning. She couldn’t stand it and fainted.”
“Ah Guang!” Mu Sijue roared, “who allowed you to tell Aunt Zhou this!”
Aunt Zhou had worked for the Mu family for so many years, so she knew the background of the Mu family and how they got their current status.
However, she never questioned what the Mu family wanted to do. She just minded her own business and cleaned up the house.
Mu Sijue didn’t want to involve Aunt Zhou in his affair, either.
Xu Youning was an accident, an absolute accident!
“Little Seven,” Aunt Zhou walked slowly to the living room, “I’m fine. Let go of Ah Guang and come in. I have something to say to you.”
Before Mu Sijue showed his surprise, Ah Guang raised his hands and said, “Seventh Brother, this is all Aunt Zhou’s idea. Trust me, I’m a victim.”
Mu Sijue loosened Ah Guang’s collar and said, “Wait for me outside!”
“Yes, Sir!”
Ah Guang escaped as soon as he went out of the old house.
He was not stupid. He would not wait for Mu Sijue outside. After all, it was equal to waiting for death!
Mu Sijue went to the living room and saw Aunt Zhou sitting on a wooden chair. He walked over and asked, “Aunt Zhou, are you okay?”
Aunt Zhou sighed and looked at Mu Sijue, saying, “Little Seven, I should be the one asking this question.”
