Chapter 458: Chapter 456: The Era of Emoticons [4th Update]

Hearing Liang Lan’s words, Tang Geng was completely dumbfounded: "Lu Group? The Lu Group! Is it that Lu Group of Lu Xiaobu?"

He couldn’t believe his own ears.

The Lu Group actually wants to hire him... oh, no, they want him as an employee!

Is this real?!

He isn’t dreaming, right?

"Yes, but if you agree, starting from today, you need to change how you address us."

Liang Lan nodded, changing Tang Geng’s way of addressing her.

She didn’t like it when people directly called Young Master Bu by his name.

"Ah?! Ah!"

Tang Geng was still in a state of confusion, not comprehending what was happening.

He might not have understood, but someone else did.

That would be Chen Zhou, the one who just got slapped by Liang Lan.

Chen Zhou, with his cheek in hand, looked at Liang Lan in disbelief: "You... you... you are Liang Lan!?"

He always thought highly of himself, hence the enterprise he most wished to join was the Lu Group.

He felt only the unique Lu Group was worthy of him.

Thus, he naturally did extensive research on the Lu Group.

Not only had he memorized the details about Lu Xiaobu, he knew everyone around Xiaobu as well!

Of course, he recognized Liang Lan.

When Liang Lan heard Chen Zhou’s words, let alone responding to him, she didn’t even turn her head.

"Tang Geng, give me your answer."

She was waiting for Tang Geng’s response.

Although she still wasn’t clear on what Young Master wanted to do, executing the order was enough.

Finally coming to his senses, Tang Geng’s eyes lit up with ecstasy as he quickly nodded: "Willing, definitely willing, I am definitely willing!"

It’s the Lu Group, anyone who says they’re not willing must be out of their mind!

Even though he didn’t know what it was about him that the Lu Group saw, agreeing first was certainly not wrong!

"That’s settled then, pack up your things, let’s go."

Liang Lan nodded and said.

Mission accomplished.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Tang Geng readily agreed.

His roommates were dying of envy.

It was actually the Lu Group, and it was Liang Lan herself who came to extend the invitation; what does that represent?

It definitely signifies that it was Young Master Bu’s command!

Could it be that Tang Geng truly ascended to heaven in a single step?

Did he become one of Lu Xiaobu’s people at the Lu Group?

This must be what it means to have ancestors bless you with good fortune!

On one side was envy, but another person was feeling jealousy!

Chen Zhou’s entire being was burning with jealousy.

His pride didn’t allow a piece of trash, a good-for-nothing, to enter the company he longed for!

His eyes were bloodshot!

Yes, truly a case of red-eye disease!

His jealousy had completely consumed his rationality!

"Stop right there!"

Chen Zhou burst out, pointing at Tang Geng and roared at Liang Lan: "Why? Why this piece of trash?! What’s so good about this piece of trash?! Why can he join Lu..."

He cut off mid-sentence and couldn’t continue.

That’s because Liang Lan elegantly took out a stun gun from her bag, turned it on, and gave it a quick jab on Chen Zhou’s body.

"Thump!"

Chen Zhou immediately rolled his eyes back and collapsed to the ground convulsing.

Liang Lan turned off the stun gun and elegantly put it back into her bag: "Pertinacious."

Bear this our ass! When it’s time to deal with someone, we’ll deal with them; that’s what Young Master Bu taught her!

Damn, she swore again!

Then, she looked back at Tang Geng: "Let’s go."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Tang Geng saw Chen Zhou collapsed on the side, shivering uncontrollably.

Such a beautiful woman, yet she was so ruthless with her actions.

Without hesitation, she wouldn’t even let Chen Zhou finish talking.

Truly worthy of being one of Lu Xiaobu’s people, really so decisive, so impressive!

Probably no one but Lu Xiaobu himself could subdue her!

Tang Geng left, only leaving the roommate behind, looking at the departing Tang Geng and then at Chen Zhou lying on the ground, feeling a mix of emotions.

So, he went over to Chen Zhou...

And kicked him twice!

Then, he ran!

Yes, revenge taken! It feels good!

...

Liang Lan brought Tang Geng back to Lu Xiaobu.

"Young Master, I’ve brought him back."

Liang Lan said with a smiling face.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Lu Xiaobu said cheerfully.

Tang Geng watched Liang Lan’s smiling face blossom, then thought back to her brandishing a stun baton at the drop of a hat, and he couldn’t help but shudder all over!

Is this even the same person?!

The difference is so huge?!

Alright then, Young Master Bu, you’re still the most awesome!

"What’s your name?"

Lu Xiaobu directed his gaze at Tang Geng and asked.

"My name is Tang Geng..."

Tang Geng began, but suddenly froze.

Because he didn’t know how to address Lu Xiaobu.

He remembered, vaguely recalling there was a term "Young Master."

So.

Tang Geng replied, "My name is Tang Geng, Young Master!"

"Cough cough cough!"

Zhang Meng and Li Jin both coughed at the same time.

What’s this kid trying to do?

Steal our jobs?!

Their cough frightened Tang Geng into shivering.

He probably knew he’d called the wrong title.

So.

"Young Master?"

"Cough cough!"

Liang Lan coughed.

What, you’ve just arrived and you’re trying to sit on an equal footing with me?

"Uh..." Tang Geng shuddered again, the image of Liang Lan with her stun gun flashing before his eyes, so he quickly changed how he addressed him: "Boss."

"En?"

Su Luoxue became unwilling.

What’s the meaning of this, you can’t bully them so you come to bully me, is that it?!

Although she didn’t want to compete for this, now that everyone was doing it, it wouldn’t seem right if she didn’t.

"Me!"

Tang Geng was going crazy!

What the?

What do you all want to do?!?!

Don’t bully people like that, it’s just a form of address!

Why does it feel like you think I’m trying to snatch your jobs?

Let me tell you, if it wasn’t because I can’t beat you, I would... I would... Never mind!

Even if I could, I shouldn’t fight!

Tang Geng’s frustrated expression was fully captured by Lu Xiaobu, who couldn’t help bursting into laughter: "Just call me President Lu!"

"Yes, President Lu!"

Tang Geng let out a sigh of relief, finally settling on a title to use.

What he didn’t know was that Liang Lan, Zhang Meng and others, upon hearing this title, also exchanged a look and breathed a sigh of relief!

Fortunately, it seems the Young Master isn’t recruiting lackeys, but an employee instead!

They couldn’t help but worry, after all, this was a person personally requested by the Young Master.

And how many people has the Young Master personally requested?

They could probably count on a few fingers!

So, you see, a title actually determines the other person’s status.

Zhang Meng and Li Jin are "Young Master."

Liang Lan is "Young Master."

Su Luoxue is "Boss."

These all have different meanings.

Of course, to clarify, this isn’t because they’re being petty and excluding outsiders; if the Young Master really needed this person, they would absolutely welcome him with open arms.

Right now, it was just a slight moment of emotion.

Um... how to put it?

Let’s just say, it’s like pets vying for attention, you get it, right?

"That, President Lu, did you ask me to come over for..."

Tang Geng couldn’t help but ask.

He really couldn’t figure out what he had done to attract the attention of Lu Xiaobu, who seemed to have everything he wanted and did whatever he pleased.

"Did you create this drawing?"

Lu Xiaobu took out the previous drawing of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms battling a chicken pecking at grains and looked at Tang Geng.

"Yes."

Tang Geng swallowed.

Inside, he felt doubtful and anxious, hopefully, it wasn’t anything serious!

"Did you come up with this yourself? Do you have more works like this?"

Lu Xiaobu asked excitedly.

"Yes!" Tang Geng nodded.

"Great, bring them here for me to see!"

Lu Xiaobu was extremely excited.

And after he had seen them, the smile at the corner of his mouth was almost too big to contain!

Hahaha, the era of emoticons has arrived!
