Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

As if she was genuinely unhappy about it, the aunt sighed, then changed the subject and said, "I really don't know which young man Mei will end up with. If my husband wasn't already married, I would definitely mention it to the president."

"You're joking."

"You child, you're being too polite with me."

"of course not."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Mei said, "If there's nothing else, I'll head to my workstation now. The finance department must be very busy these days."

Upon hearing this, the aunt frowned and sighed, "Yes, when will this ever end...?"

Even she, the powerful finance manager, has to work overtime alongside the younger staff.

Mei nodded and walked toward an empty workstation. As soon as she left, the department head's expression instantly changed, his eyes became indifferent, and he silently turned his head to look at a certain spot to the side. The person there immediately gave her a look.

Mei also walked towards that person.

"These documents need to be processed urgently. I'll have to trouble you again tonight."

Making an embarrassed expression, the person placed a thick stack of documents into Mei's hands, the weight of which almost made her drop it.

Just as I steadied myself and stood up straight, the person spoke again 'sincerely': "We need these documents tomorrow, you see..."

His face was plastered with a fawning smile. Mei glanced at the thickness of the material that would take until at least dawn to process, and wanted to say something, but in the end she just nodded silently.

She was the only one in the finance department who could help her father. Even though she knew in her heart that it was deliberately making things difficult for her, Mei could only endure it.

Mei nodded slightly and walked to her seat, where she sat down and began to work diligently.

She diligently searched for truly useful information from a pile of trivial matters, and only after finishing the last document did she raise her head.

The office lights had dimmed, but the light above her head remained bright.

She rubbed her dry eyes and stood up to stretch her aching body.

The office was completely empty, the silence so profound you could hear a pin drop. Looking out the window, the neon-lit streets stretched out below, the sky was filled with twinkling stars, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.

It's this time again.

Despite her physical exhaustion, she checked her email one last time, only to discover that her internet connection had inexplicably dropped and the email she had just sent hadn't been sent.

The red exclamation mark struck her like a hammer blow to the chest, making her involuntarily take a deep breath.

After calming herself down, she took out her phone, connected it to her computer's hotspot, and clicked to resend the email, but it quickly failed again.

It was then that she realized her mobile hotspot was connected to the external network, making it impossible to send emails to her work email address via the internal network.

"..."

Wow.

The messy files were scattered all over the floor, and the mouse in her hand was squeaking loudly from her grip.

She slammed her fist on the table, breathing softly, and squinted her eyes to ease her slightly dizzy head.

After she calmed down, she bent down and carefully collected the documents on the ground and put them back in their proper places.

He then used his phone to send the information he had painstakingly collected all night to his father's private email address.

Soon, her phone rang.

"Mei, why are you still up so late again?"

As soon as the call connected, his father's voice, tinged with concern, rang out.

“Isn’t Father still not resting?” Mei said with a smile.

"What I did was... Hey, did those people in the finance department give you a hard time again?"

Her words hit the nail on the head, causing Mei, who had intended to talk about something lighthearted, to suddenly tighten her lips and feel a little sore in the corners of her eyes.

Her throat bobbed, she took a deep breath, and then said in her usual voice, "Don't worry, everyone is very kind to me, and the minister watched me grow up, so there won't be any problems."

"......Um."

A silence fell between the father and daughter, and Mei quickly hung up the phone.

She sat listlessly in the chair, the loneliness making her feel like she was going crazy.

I really want to go back. At this time, Kiana would probably come over with her pillow to whisper sweet nothings to her. Sometimes Sirin would come over too. I wonder how they are getting along with Rain now.

The phone on the table suddenly lit up, and she instinctively picked it up and unlocked it.

Noticing many unread messages on her social media, she started scrolling through them one by one.

Kiana sent her a picture of red bean rice with a shy emoji, and Mei couldn't help but smile.

It seems that Kiana finally got what she wanted during her absence.

As she continued flipping through the pages, she saw her recounting some of the interesting experiences she had had that day. Just reading it, she felt as if a lovely young girl was surrounding her, chattering away.

The everyday moments that once slipped through my fingers have suddenly become something I long for.

At the very bottom, the newest post is from just a few minutes ago.

"Mei, Mei, are you asleep? Ayu is next to me, I can't sleep..."

I opened the chat window, and before she could even reply, another message popped up.

"Looks like Mei, you've already fallen asleep. That's a real shame. I wanted to have a good chat with you. It feels like it's been so long since we last talked."

"Is your work over there very busy? You don't even have time to talk to everyone. We all miss you so much."

"You haven't replied all day. Don't forget to tell me if you're having any trouble. Mei is my best friend, and I'll definitely do my best to help you! Besides, even if I can't solve it, Yu is here too. He's the best!!"

"Please remember to reply when you see this message tomorrow. It would be even better if you could call. I have so much to say to you. Also, when are you coming back? You've been gone for so many days. It's time for you to come back. I miss you."

"..."

A barrage of messages kept popping up, but Mei was starting to have trouble seeing the screen clearly.

Tick.

A drop of water landed on the screen and quickly slid down, leaving a long trail.

"Oh no, Ayu's telling me to go to sleep. Goodnight, Mei!!"

Mei closed her eyes and murmured softly as her gaze fell on the last sentence that came out.

Goodnight, Kiana...

I fell asleep while writing, and now I'm living in Bengbu.

I was thinking about the plot, and I fell asleep while thinking about it. I woke up at six o'clock. Thank goodness I had a leave slip, otherwise my perfect attendance record would have been sent out. It was so hard to keep going! Consider this chapter something I owe everyone. I'll try to finish it in my spare time these next few days. I'm so sorry!

Chapter 260 Kiana: I wish ME Company would go bankrupt

Mei hasn't replied to my message again...

Lying on the bed with her back to Ayu, Kiana held her phone and muttered to herself.

"Lying there playing games is bad for your eyes."

Kiana heard her lover's voice in her ear, and a smile appeared on her lips as she complained coquettishly, "I know, I know, Yu, why are you like your mother?"

She leaned back, feeling the warmth pressed against her back; a sense of comfort and warmth flowed through her heart.

Having just done *that* last night, Nangong Yu naturally wouldn't do anything more tonight. However, when Kiana was pleasantly surprised to see Yu arrive and noticed Xilin huddled behind him, her face turned bright red again.

But considering that we've already done such absurd things, this is just sleeping together, so what's the difference?

He used the same excuse to call Xilin over; that's how people's bottom line is gradually broken.

So, naturally, the three of them ended up sleeping together again.

Not only Kiana, but Sirin also had trouble sleeping, lying on his other side and talking to him about all sorts of things.

Her long purple hair cascaded naturally over her back and onto the bed. Nangong Yu ran his hands through her hair, embracing her slender waist and soft, firm buttocks, holding Xilin tightly in his arms. Xilin, in turn, lay close to him, her head resting on his arm, one small hand groping against his chest.

"Ah Yu, after our company moves to Mu Continent, should we start making virtual games?"

Enjoying the tenderness with her lover, Xilin asked softly.

"Yes, and we'll probably focus all our energy on virtual games. We absolutely have to take the lead while virtual games are just starting out!"

"I believe in Ah Yu!"

Xilin's eyes were wide open, her golden pupils glistening with affection.

"With your blessing, Sirin, it seems we're destined to win."

He chuckled and teased the girl in his arms, but his mind began to ponder her words.

If we follow the promotional model that Cocolia told him, making Titanfall the first game would be somewhat inappropriate.

At the first Virtual Reality Technology Exhibition, the virtual pods of the three companies will be on display simultaneously, and visitors will be allowed to experience them.

As for the experience, time is definitely limited.

Titanfall is certainly excellent, but that should be appreciated in the context of its well-designed levels and compelling storyline.

If the experience time is limited to twenty minutes, the participants probably won't even have time to find all the batteries before the time is up, making it impossible for them to have a deep impression.

Therefore, he needed to create a game that could grab people's attention in a short time.

Once he's established Gensokyo's reputation through this game, he'll release Titanfall. Besides that, there's something else he really wants to do.

While her mind was racing with thoughts, she was also teasing Xi Sou < Suo <↓:⒐04 < Ba ∪√㈣⒉旧0＼∪⑸ Lin, making her blush. Suddenly, a beeping sound came from the room.

He glanced at the time on the wall and, noticing it was already 1 a.m., immediately patted Qi Bao's bottom.

"Stop chatting, it's time to rest."

"Oh, alright!"

Kiana quickly sent Mei a final message, placed her phone on the bedside table, turned over, and hugged Yu tightly.

Nestled close to him, Kiana couldn't help but whisper, "Mei hasn't replied to my messages again. It seems like she's always so busy whenever she goes back. She's been back for several days this time. Does ME Company have that much work?"

"...Maybe."

"Do you think everyone is like you?" Sirin blurted out instinctively.

"What did I do wrong? I've been working hard too, okay?! It's you, Xilin, who stays home all day. You're definitely lazier than me!!"

Kiana was naturally unhappy and retorted with a frown.
