I am weak and friendly

Chapter 6: Is the company going to go under? Ah, I love it! (Please vote and give me your monthly pass!)
On the eighth floor of Qihang Building, the office area of ​​Linghai Technology was still brightly lit.

In a corner of the huge open-plan office area, Li Ze, the full-stack expert of the development team, stared intently at the screen in front of him with bloodshot eyes, his hands already leaving afterimages on the keyboard.

Team leader Bao Ge stood behind Li Ze, watching the interface on the screen switch rapidly.

The lengthy log files were filtered and located, bright red warning labels and gray-white ordinary logs scrolled rapidly, and on the other side was a black code window, where code segments highlighted in yellow were excluded one by one...

Bao Ge has been in management for many years and can no longer keep up with Li Ze's operations, but he can feel that Li Ze's movements are getting slower and slower until they stop completely.

"Have you found the reason?" Bao Ge's knuckles were already white as he gripped the back of the chair.

Li Ze shook his head, somewhat dejectedly pushing the keyboard away with both hands.

Failed again.

Bao Ge sat down silently, staring blankly at the whiteboard not far away.

The whiteboard displayed a huge "45800 yuan," which was the internal reward amount offered by the company. When the reward was first offered, everyone was very excited, but now that the amount accumulated is increasing, the morale of the development team is becoming more and more dissipated.

His phone vibrated, he took it out to look at it, and then put it back.

It was a notification from a forum. He had posted something before, and someone had replied to him. There were several message notifications, but he didn't dare to look at them.

"How many times has Brother Ze failed now?" Several programmers nearby were also paying attention to Li Ze's movements.

"If even Brother Ze can't do it, who do we think we are?"

"Let's go home, don't stay up late. Staying up late causes dampness in the body, look at my eye bags..."

"Time to go home! If I don't leave now, my girlfriend will run off with someone else again!"

Brother Bao quickly stood up and said, "Everyone, let's try a little harder and hold on a little longer. If we can fix this bug, our company can get through this crisis. Then I'll ask the boss to give everyone a bonus..."

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.

"Brother Bao, do you even believe what you're saying?"

"I'm afraid the bug hasn't been fixed yet, and I'm already dead!"

"We saw a bug, but couldn't find it. We searched and searched and found a bunch of random things. I think it's not a bug at all; we've been cursed. We should go burn some incense tomorrow..."

"No matter how important the bug is, it's not as important as my life. I haven't been home for half a month!"

"Let's go, let's go home!"

Amidst the fervor of the crowd, almost all the programmers stood up, except for one figure in the corner who remained seated silently, without leaving.

Of the four elevators in Qihang Building that lead to the 8th floor, Tang Yiping likes elevator number 9 the most.

Besides the fact that elevator number 9 is located in a relatively remote area and usually has fewer people, the more important reason is that the gap at the entrance of elevator number 9 is smaller, making it less likely for the front wheels of an electric wheelchair to get stuck inside.

As soon as Tang Yiping entered the elevator, he smelled a familiar scent.

There's a special feeling of warmth and fondness about it.

Wow, I love it here so much! How come I never noticed before? The company atmosphere is so great!

A few seconds later, Tang Yiping realized it.

Ah, so it's the smell of decay!
When the elevator doors opened on the 8th floor, Tang Yiping was enveloped by this aura.

"The company is doomed."

"Ah, I love it!"

Two completely different thoughts flashed through his mind at the same time, and Tang Yiping felt like he was having a split personality.

He pushed the joystick forward, and the wheelchair moved slowly forward, bypassing the empty reception desk and the worn-out guest sofa. Tang Yiping passed through the corridor and the conference room not far away, heading towards the development team's open-plan office.

Back when Linghai Technology was flush with cash, it rented the entire 8th floor for several years. As it turned out, that was the most worthwhile investment Linghai Technology made; otherwise, it would be destitute by now. Now, the 8th floor's decor exudes a sense of decay and decline. Tang Yiping previously thought he'd joined the wrong company, but now he thinks…emmmm, a decadent, rotten beauty, a decaying, withered vibe—I like it.

"Huh? Where did everyone go?" Before Tang Yiping left, the place was bustling with people. Tang Yiping was considered to be leaving early for get off work at that time.

But now, the entire office area is deserted, with only the computer screens still lit up.

For a moment, Tang Yiping thought he had gone to the wrong place or entered the wrong way, and had entered some parallel world.

Could it be that... the company went bankrupt when I left, and I was the only one who didn't know?

Tang Yiping only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his mentor, Brother Ban, in the corner.

Oh, so the company didn't go bankrupt.

No, even if the company goes bankrupt, Brother Ban will probably still come to work at his own expense every day... Tang Yiping thought to himself.

"Tang, what brings you back?" A voice came from the side. Tang Yiping turned around and saw Brother Bao carrying a bag as he walked out of his office.

"Bao...Brother Bao? Where is everyone? Why is everyone gone? Has the company...gone bankrupt?"

Bao Ge frowned: "What are you talking about? I just told everyone to go back and rest! What happened to you...?"

Tang Yiping looked down at himself. He had first fought with two blond-haired men, getting some dust on his clothes, then fallen off his wheelchair, and rummaged through the trash cans twice. Not only were his clothes filthy, but his wrists and knees also had some abrasions.

Only after looking at it under the light did I notice that there was still some blood on the trouser leg and the wheelchair, which might be Liu Chengyuan's.

It looks like it's in a really bad way.

"I missed the last bus, then I fell, and now I can't get back..."

Bao Ge looked at Tang Yiping, his lips moving slightly. For a moment, Tang Yiping thought he would hear a few words of comfort from Bao Ge, but what came out was: "Now that you're back, don't waste time. Get the work I gave you done done, and help your mentor a bit more. At your age, you're full of energy, so do more and learn more. What's wrong with being tired? What you learn is what you'll keep. Maybe you can stay with our company then, saving you the trouble of finding a job..."

No!
If it weren't for the fact that he would be staying here tonight and charging his wheelchair, Tang Yiping would probably be rolling his eyes.

Why doesn't the system give me a "Eat the Pie" skill? Come on, eat the pie I drew! I won't agree if this skill isn't S-rank!
He almost resigned in a fit of anger, but then he thought about the company's atmosphere...

The company atmosphere was so great, I really hate to see it go. (Referring to the fact that it's about to go bankrupt.)
Besides, wouldn't quitting now mean ending up homeless?

Never mind, I'm under someone else's roof, I'll charge up before I go.

However, it's impossible to do any work.

"Brother Bao, I'm just a poor little thing who earns 160 yuan a day and doesn't know anything..." Tang Yiping [shows weakness].

The system didn't respond at all, which told me that Brother Bao wasn't so easily fooled. Let's continue!

"I'm the kind of weakling who'd really die if I worked too much overtime, Bao-ge, look how weak I am..."

As long as a person has no bottom line, they can always succeed by feigning weakness.

Sure enough, Brother Bao shifted his gaze from Tang Yiping to the figure in the corner: "Team leader, since you're not leaving tonight, do a few more tests. We need to catch up on our progress."

"Okay, Brother Bao." The answer was the same as always.
