Bottom A, Top O

CHAPTER 14: NIE ZIHANG'S DARK EYES DARKENED

On the fourth day of entering the pre-heat period, Nie Zihang’s reactions became increasingly intense.

He started experiencing occasional sourness and swelling at the back of his neck, and his temper was becoming increasingly irritable.

At 5 o’clock in the afternoon, he had a meeting with the employees of the law firm. The atmosphere was extremely tense, and each and every one of those little brats was scolded so harshly that they were afraid to even take a breath.

“Since I am not in the office, you all think you can slack off, huh? The clients are pressuring me for documents, and here you all are, doing such a fantastic job1.”

As he spoke, he directly shared his Feixin chat interface in the meeting room, scrolling down one by one. The chat interface was filled with numerous red dots, each indicating urgent messages.

“Take a look at this. When you all procrastinate, this is how the boss covers for you! Do you see it?”

There were more than a dozen people on the screen, and not a single person dared to utter a word.

“He Gao, the client requested a lawyer’s letter from you. Are your hands not functioning, or is your brain not functioning? It is a task that can be completed in half a day, but you have been dragging it out for three days. I expect to receive the official hard copy, electronic version, and scanned electronic version, all three versions, before 8 p.m. tonight. Do you comprehend?”

The young boy named He Gao nodded repeatedly and said, “Alright, I promise to complete the task, boss!”

“Ren Xuan, you as well. Send the material list that Mr. Gao requested to the client group and mention me before 8 p.m. tonight.”

“Alright, alright, boss!”

As the instructions were given one by one, the entire meeting room was filled with a tense atmosphere. Everyone was on high alert, fearful of being called out.

In the chat conversation Nie Zihang was having at that exact moment, a message popped up.

Group Name: Mr. Y Lawsuit Acceptance Group—Collecting Evidence.

It showed that Chen Xin had just sent a message, and it was an emoji.

Everyone else was also startled, and their eyes were surprisingly in sync as they all glanced towards the bottom right corner of their screens.

That was the position of Chen Xin’s chat window.

The beta with a baby face, clearly unaware of what was happening, was still looking down.

Although the camera could not capture what he was holding in his hand, it was evident that the foolish disciple was playing with his phone.

Well, it was likely a work-related discussion with Yu Jingxuan.

Nie Zihang nonchalantly averted his gaze and made the decision not to intervene.

Unexpectedly, another message appeared in the group chat the very next second.

Chen Xin: [Master suddenly got angry for no reason; it is so frightening…]

All of a sudden, the sound of people inhaling could be heard through the earphones.

Nie Zihang raised an eyebrow and calmly opened Yu Jingxuan’s casework group.

Several messages popped up in succession.

Chen Xin: [crying.jpg]

Chen Xin: [Master is unreasonably angry again, it is so terrifying! Isn’t it normal for someone to follow up on orders? These clients, the specified time has not even arrived yet, but they are all pressuring us! Something is seriously wrong!]
