Chapter 29: Brushing Up Performance

  One morning, when you were woken up by the alarm clock and walked to the bathroom in a daze with your toothbrush. A strange beautiful woman walked directly into the bathroom, walked to the toilet, pulled down her pants and sat on the toilet to urinate. Would you think it's a dream? Is it a spring dream that leaves no trace? Or is it a nightmare that shocks people's hearts?

  Yu Ming bit his toothbrush, staring blankly at the mirror, seemingly thinking about what to do next. At this time, a beautiful woman wearing a loose T-shirt floated in. As for whether there were shorts or something under the T-shirt, Yu Ming never remembered. At that moment, Yu Ming saw a messy-haired short-haired woman walking past him from behind in the mirror, and his brain still hadn't started working.

  Until the sound of water came from the cubicle, Yu Ming subconsciously turned his head to take a look. Through the thick glass, he could clearly see a woman's sitting posture, and the sound of water was clearly audible beside his ear. Yu Ming's brain started working, where was he? University? No, he was at work, now he lived in...

  The sound of water, the woman opened the glass door of the compartment, as if Yu Ming didn't exist, and squeezed him out of the sink with her body. The woman washed her hands with half-closed eyes, turned around, grabbed a towel from Yu Ming's shoulder to dry her hands, and floated away like the wind.

  Five seconds later, Yu Ming shook his head, was he dreaming? He was indeed a talent, able to fall asleep even while standing. No... why was the towel on the floor, why was there water flowing in the toilet, why...

  Du Qingqing heard Yu Ming's loud cry in the suite bathroom and hurriedly handled things and ran out: "What's wrong?"

  Yu Ming looked at Du Qingqing and thought for a moment before saying, "I don't know."

  Du Qingqing was furious: "Don't know when you called your soul?"

  "I..." said Mingdao: "Just now there was a woman who went to the restroom."

  "Yes, I just went to the bathroom." Du Qingqing carried a few points of murderous aura: "What do you want to say? Can't I go to the bathroom?" In the morning when getting up, human temper is indeed bigger. It's called waking-up anger.

  At this moment, a woman appeared at the door of Du Qingqing's suite and hugged her from behind, pulling her away: "Baby, let's sleep for a while."

  Yu Ming shivered with cold sweat. Du Qingqing knew Yu Ming had misunderstood and hastily explained, "She's my friend, not that kind of friend. A good friend."

  The woman's face rubbed against Du Qingqing's neck: "I like the tender feeling so much."

  Suddenly, the woman opened her eyes and glared at Yu Ming, saying: "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a woman before?"

  Alright, the truth is out, Yu Ming turns around to squeeze toothpaste and brushes his teeth silently.

  Du Qingqing rushed over, pushed the woman away and said: "Yu Ming, don't think wildly and don't speak wildly. She and I are not that kind of friend." This matter can be big or small, if it spreads within the company, it will be a huge blow to one's reputation.

  "I'm here!" The woman walked over, grabbed a banana from the tea table and brought it in front of Ming with a sly smile: "If you reveal our secret, be careful... understand?" The woman broke the banana into two segments.

  "Dead woman, don't talk nonsense." Du Qingqing introduced: "Her name is Haina, she's my best friend. Yu Ming, an employee of our company."

  Haina leaned against the washbasin, not speaking, and brought a banana in front of Yu Ming. She pinched it, and half of it jumped out. Then she swallowed the banana in one mouthful: "Nice to meet you, Yu Ming, right?"

  Yu Ming turned his head, spat out the water in the washbasin, wiped his face with a towel and turned around: "Miss Du, I'm going to work now."

  "Alright... go."

  "Come to think of it," said Ming, turning his head to Haina politely, "that banana is raw and astringent, isn't it very hard to eat? I had a bite yesterday and really couldn't swallow it."

  Yu Ming left. Haina retched and then said to Du Qingqing, "What he said is right, this banana isn't something ordinary people can swallow. Especially since I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

  Du Qingqing gave her a sideways glance: "Let you pretend."

  "I hate being dragged around." Haina smiled dazedly and leaned in: "Give me a kiss. You're working overtime with me until midnight, after all."

  ……

  Yu Ming never hitched a ride with Du Qingqing. Hitching a ride is a very taboo behavior. Once or twice, even ten times, others won't mind. But if hitching a ride becomes an obligation for car owners, it's not good for either party. Especially when some people take it for granted and would complain behind your back that you're stingy if they didn't get a ride one day. So Yu Ming would rather arrive at the company fifteen minutes early than ride in Du Qingqing's car.

  Today, Nai Qiu got up earlier than Yu Ming and seemed to be in a good mood. He greeted Yu Ming, who responded with a greeting of his own. It turned out that this kid had gotten up at 6 am. The reason was that he had received a message on his phone about finding a missing expensive dog. The client offered 5,000 yuan for the job. Nai Qiu spent half an hour searching and found the dog, earning himself a commission of 500 yuan.

  This piqued Yu Ming's interest, and he pulled up a chair to sit beside Niu Qiu: "Niu Qiu, it seems like you have some special insights when it comes to finding lost cats and dogs. Do you have any secrets?"

  Ní Qiù said with a smile: "When I was in prison, the guy in my cell was called Beast King. He was a 67-year-old old man who used to be a temporary worker at an animal shelter. He taught me a few tricks."

  "Sixty-seven years old? What crime?"

  "He kidnapped him. He took a steak knife and kidnapped a big-sized security guard at the steak house. As a result, he was knocked down."

  "This doesn't make sense."

  "On his first day out of prison, he smashed a cash machine and then firmly demanded to be sentenced for several more years."

  It's clear now, retirement is a good thing.

  Ní Qiūdào said: "Yú Míng, our friendship is still okay. But this is a technical matter. So..."

  "I understand, I understand." Yu Ming knew what it meant to teach an apprentice, starve the master. Magic and qigong were like that, high-level practitioners basically didn't take on apprentices. Even if they did, they only taught basic knowledge, the real stuff had to be figured out by the apprentice themselves. The landline rang, Yu Ming answered: "Hello... oh, okay."

  Du Qingqing stepped across the threshold and said to Mingdao, "Miss Du, Li Fu said he'll be a bit late, there's a traffic jam on the road."

  "It doesn't matter, this line of work doesn't require a 9-to-6 schedule." The speaker was Haina behind Du Qingqing. Haina wore cowboy jeans, with a black tight-fitting shirt inside and a denim jacket outside. Haina said: "From today on, I am your boss."

  Yu Ming, Ni Qiu and Du Qingqing went to see Haina together, it seemed that even Du Qingqing didn't know about this matter.

  Haina didn't care, took a stack of documents from Du Qingqing's briefcase and put them on the table: "What is our company most lacking? You... answer."

  Ní Qiū replied: "It's fame."

  "It's all about performance. So from today on, our company is going to start padding our performance."

  Hai Zong said: "I know how to brush BOSS, but how about the performance?"

  "Haha!" Heena burst out laughing and slapped a piece of paper on the table: "Look."

  Yu Ming picked up the paper, and Nian Qiu came over. On it were densely packed various units and contact phone numbers, including: errand companies, domestic service companies, locksmiths, repair companies, scalper companies, entertainment companies, stock companies, law firms...
