Chapter 24

Something felt strange.

The landlady triggered the System’s binding just by flirting with Wang Ming in conversation.

But Zhang Ailing showed no reaction to the binding at all.

Isn’t anyone supposed to be able to trigger the binding?

Does it depend on body type or purity?

This System is quite picky.

Wang Ming didn’t go back to his rental to get the car Zou Shuqing had given him.

He still took a taxi to the company.

Today was busy as usual-he had to help the Female Boss train new staff, and also go to the property hall to verify the authenticity of the ownership.

Zou Shuqing’s task, the landlady’s task, Li Zhixuan’s task.

Ah… Suddenly so busy…

He was even thinking of using the money he had to start something, but there was no time to plan.

When Wang Ming arrived at the office, the Female Boss saw him through the transparent glass.

She walked out of her office and waved at Wang Ming, “Wang Ming, come here for a moment.”

Then she turned and went back inside. Wang Ming walked into the boss’s office and closed the glass door behind him.

Jiang Yao pressed the remote for the blinds; the curtains dropped around the glass, isolating her office from the main workspace.

Wang Ming looked around at the falling blinds, puzzled, and asked, “What’s up? Why so secretive?”

Jiang Yao gently nodded, signaling, “Come, have a seat.”

Wang Ming sat down in the chair opposite her desk.

Jiang Yao sighed, “Sigh… I really think you’re great, I truly don’t want you to leave.”

Wang Ming frowned, “But you promised me, just one more month helping you.”

Jiang Yao propped her elbows on the desk, leaning forward slightly, “Can’t you reconsider? Is it because the salary is too low? You just graduated not long ago, right? In this industry, I’m not a stingy boss, am I?”

As she spoke, her gaze lingered on Wang Ming, her eyes sincerely pleading for him to stay.

Wang Ming felt a bit uncomfortable under her gaze. He had already made it clear, so why was she going back on her word?

“Boss, I’ve already made up my mind. It’s not about the money. I don’t need those few thousand in salary.”

Jiang Yao stood up and slowly walked over to Wang Ming, placing a hand on his shoulder.

“Oh come on, don’t call me ‘Boss,’ call me Jiang Yao.

I just started this business, and out of the people I’ve hired, you’re the most capable. If you stay a few more years, you’ll be one of my veteran employees. When the company does even better, I’ll give you a share of the profits, okay? How about ten percent?”

Ten percent?

That would have been a dream come true before.

The company has been on an upward trend for more than half a year now. In such a saturated industry, Jiang Yao’s ability is truly outstanding.

But Wang Ming’s contribution was significant too.

Since he joined the company over the past half year, he estimated the revenue had been over two million RMB. After deducting rent, travel, entertainment, and staff expenses,

The boss had made at least one million RMB.

A ten percent annual bonus would be more than two hundred thousand RMB, and it would only get higher in the future.

Seeing Wang Ming deep in thought, Jiang Yao continued to persuade him.

“You really want to leave me here all alone?” Her voice was soft and sweet.

Her breath tickled Wang Ming’s neck, and his heartbeat inexplicably quickened. He took a deep breath and said, “Boss, I have my own plans too. Really… it’s not about the money.”
Jiang Yao smoothly sat down on the armrest of Wang Ming’s chair, her body pressed closely against him. She gently grabbed his arm and shook it as she said:

“Wang Ming~ Won’t you care about me a little more? If you leave, I’ll even dream at night that you’re not helping me anymore.”

Her eyes were pitiful and pleading.

The boss was divorced and raising a child. Judging by her state, she clearly hadn’t had any excitement in years.

But I really can’t keep wasting my time here. Completing one task means over a million yuan, plus an office worth several million.

I’m destined to soar in the future. Why stay in this small company if I’m not the boss?

But it feels like my heart is about to be softened by her shaking.

“This… Don’t shake me, you’re making me dizzy.”

Jiang Yao poked Wang Ming’s chest lightly with her finger, pouting, “See how good I am to you? Haven’t I always taken care of you?

Forgot? When you had a cold, your girlfriend didn’t even visit you, but I drove in the rain at night to bring you medicine. And my son likes to play with you whenever he comes to the office.

If you leave, when my son comes and finds you’re not here, he’ll definitely cry.

Our lives are so bitter… My son and I are always abandoned by men…”

“Huh?” Wang Ming was completely baffled.

What is this? Isn’t this obviously a pitiful act with a tempting twist!

[Doo doo…]

[Detected a bindable target]

The System’s notification sounded again.

Faced with its prompt, Wang Ming was speechless. How was he supposed to have a deep conversation now?

This Little Succubus was about to kiss him.

“Hmph! Why aren’t you saying anything!”

Wang Ming quickly looked at Jiang Yao, who was full of charm, and put his arm around her waist.

Jiang Yao’s body trembled, and she instantly jumped up from the armrest, stepping back a little.

“What are you doing…” Her face was a bit flushed.

Wang Ming frowned, “I just wanted to comfort you.”

Jiang Yao coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness, “Well… I just want you to stay… Why did you suddenly…”

Wang Ming was helpless. She was clearly the one seducing him, and now she was acting reserved.

“Let me think about it. I don’t want to keep changing what’s already been agreed.”

Seeing Wang Ming loosen up, a hint of joy flashed in Jiang Yao’s eyes. She hurried to press her advantage: “Wang Ming, please think it over carefully. The company really can’t do without you.

My son can’t bear to part with you either.

A new hire is coming today, and I’ll need you to train them.

Afterwards, I’ll expand the company, hire more people, and take on more business. If you leave, I really don’t know what to do.

As long as you stay, I’ll make good on the ten percent profit share, and… I…”

Jiang Yao stammered as she spoke, her face growing redder, “Anyway, just think about it more.”

Wang Ming rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

[Doo doo…]

[Jiang Yao]

[Age: 32]

[Looks: 90] [Figure: 91]

Purity: 80

Infatuation: 80

[Task triggered!]

[Have Jiang Yao’s son call you ‘Dad’ one hundred times to complete the task]

What the hell?

Have the boss’s son call me Dad?

Become a stepdad?

Screw you #￥%……&￥%……

Wang Ming cursed the System in his heart.
