The girl who was called stood there nervously. She probably didn't expect to be called. She was too excited and her breathing was a little rapid.
"Don't be nervous." Bai Yu said gently: "What's your name?"
"I, my name is Cheng Li..." He grabbed his sleeve nervously, but his eyes were fixed on the young man in the center of the crowd.
"No one will laugh at you here. You can take a minute to think about what you want to ask." Bai Yu continued, "Or, you can make a small request."
"I, I'm here to take part in the interview at Shen Ce Mansion. This is my third interview." She took a deep breath, and her past flashed across her eyes. She immediately straightened her chest and asked, "Can I join Shen Ce Mansion? Even if I start as an intern, it's fine!"
There was complete silence at the scene, and many people looked at the girl in surprise, astonished by her speech.
Cheng Li knew that his qualifications were limited. The reason he failed the first two interviews was because his average cultivation level did not meet the requirements. Even if his written test scores were high, his realm would not reach the average level of the Shen Ce Mansion.
She could have easily chosen an easier position, but she persisted in applying for the Shen Ce Mansion.
The short-haired girl standing next to him had a complicated look in her eyes. She knew why Cheng Li was so obsessed with Shen Ce Mansion...
It was all because of that encounter in Ruyi Pavilion two years ago.
Back then, they were just ordinary waitresses who worked to earn points, and only occasionally caught a glimpse of the fierce competition at a dinner party...that was the biggest scene they had ever seen up close in their lives.
After that incident, it was hard for me to let go of this good friend of mine.
She put in tremendous effort and hard work just to enter the Shen Ce Mansion and get closer to her ideal man.
It takes so much courage for me to say this in person now.
The short-haired girl couldn't help but want to speak up for her good friend. She wanted this world-renowned young man to know how much blood, sweat and tears her good sister had shed for him... Even if it was regarded as moral kidnapping, she didn't want her sister's efforts to be denied, ignored and disregarded.
Li Li needs the affirmation from the person in front of her more than anyone else's words!
Just before the short-haired girl spoke.
Bai Yu nodded without hesitation: "Okay."
Cheng Li, who had bowed her head due to the tense atmosphere and hundreds of eyes, suddenly raised her eyes and asked in astonishment, "What?"
"I said, yes... You will work in Shen Ce Mansion as an intern. After the two-month internship, if there are no mistakes, you can be converted to a full-time employee." Bai Yu repeated and said in detail: "I will let Mu Yaoxi handle it for you personally."
Cheng Li was a little dizzy from this pie in the sky and was speechless for a while.
Someone immediately started to make a noise: "Then I can do it too! White God, look at me!"
Bai Yu smiled and explained, "This is the second time I've met Miss Cheng. Two years ago, she was only at the first level of the Transcendent Realm, and her cultivation was mediocre. But now, she is already at the late second level, which shows how hardworking she is. Her hardworking and diligent attitude can also be seen. If the Divine Strategy Mansion does not accept her, it would be a waste of talent."
He turned around and said, "That's all for today, everyone, please disperse."
The young man's back disappeared in the passage, and many people at the scene felt lost.
After the crowd slowly dispersed, Cheng Li still stood there motionless.
"Grains?"
"Don't talk..." Cheng Li whispered, "Let me be intoxicated for a while."
Looking in the direction the other person left, unstoppable joy and enthusiasm surged in her heart, and the overflowing sweetness was sweeter than the first ice cream she tasted as a child.
"He still remembers me."
Her eyes are as bright as stars.
The short-haired girl next to her slapped her forehead... Oh no, I shouldn't have let her come over. Now she's afraid she'll never be able to get married in this life.
Chapter 912 Return to Zhonghu
Take the elevator to the top floor of Shen Ce Mansion.
Bai Yu took out his cell phone and opened the browser.
He registered an account when he was bored before. At first, it was called "Eight-level Gale", and later it was changed to "Realistic White Elm", but it was not authenticated and no one knew it was his smurf account.
There is only one person to follow and be followed, and that is the Expo official.
Open the hot search list and look down the rows. The bright red post at the top is from Daxia’s official channel.
In this world, most apps are put on the shelves only after official review, and Expo is essentially the official mouthpiece.
The official update article of Daxia has come to the new chapter of "Today's Capital".
Bai Yu clicked on it and saw that the post had been viewed over 100 million times.
The number of clicks here is not inflated, which shows that at least tens of millions of people across the country are paying attention to this matter.
The post simply states two simple facts using declarative sentences.
They are the two events of 'The Fall of the Sword Saint' and 'Bai Yu Killing Thousand Machine Rakshasa'.
The tone is quite official, without any detailed description, only a simple description of the time, place, events and related results.
If the background of this notice was not black and white but a blue background with white fonts, it would be more interesting.
Bai Yu opened the comment section, but didn't find the 'Comment section is closed' prompt at first glance, which was a bit unusual.
The top comment in the comment section is "May the Sword Saint rest in peace", and when you scroll down, it's basically all condolences.
Yes, no one can escape from such a serious topic. After all, the Internet is not a lawless place.
After Bai Yu exited, he saw several other hot searches.
Ranked first is 'The Record of Bai Yujing Solo Killing Qianji Rakshasa'.
Although it is said to be a real recording, in fact the video content is only a dozen seconds long and most of it is blurry. It should be a surveillance video.
The surveillance video near Zhonghu Lake is not something that ordinary people can get their hands on, so Bai Yu suspected that it was released by the authorities and was a deliberate hype.
There are two real purposes for reporting this matter nationwide.
First, the death of the Sword Master was announced, and the whole country mourned;
The second is to announce that Bai Yu was officially canonized and will take over the position of the Sword Saint as the pillar of the country in the future.
Although the loss of Huo Qiu Shui was heartbreaking, Da Xia also had successors who were better than their predecessors.
Only in this way can the public's mood be appeased after the loss of Huo Qiu Shui...but the price is to further increase Bai Yu's already extremely high reputation.
But it's not a big deal.
Bai Yu is not Wang Mang. He never sets himself as a role model or a moral saint.
Entering the Shen Ce Mansion, it was obvious that it had been renovated, forming a more distinctive layout.
Although the Shen Ce Mansion is only one of the subordinate agencies of the Shen Wu Division, as a supervisory unit similar to the Independent Commission Against Corruption, it naturally has different hierarchical systems within it, and it seems to be well-organized at first glance.
Unlike the noisy situation below, although Bai Yu received a lot of attention after entering here, most people were still busy with their matters. Only when Bai Yu approached did they show some nervousness. For example, they held the documents in their hands with such force that the back of the paper could be seen through, or their calves under their pants and skirts were as tight as springs, just like frontline soldiers waiting for the order to charge.
There will be a time when they need to charge, but not now.
Bai Yu walked straight into the office at the back.
Mu Yaoxi's office has been expanded to three times its original size, and there is even a dark room hidden in the room, which is equipped with a bed, bedding and a simple sink, where one can rest and spend the night.
As soon as Bai Yu walked in, he saw a figure rushing towards him. He steadied himself and looked down to see Mu Yaoxi rubbing against him like a koala. The latter was wearing an OL uniform, and this action caused many wrinkles on her clothes.
"At least let me close the door." Bai Yu said.
"It's best to let them see it." Mu Yaoxi was deliberately careless and quietly made a victory hand gesture behind Bai Yu to a group of Shen Ce Mansion members who were secretly looking at him.
Declaration of sovereignty.
Or maybe it's just showing off.
Look, the Lord of the Divine Strategy Palace that you have been thinking about is now in my arms, and I can do whatever I want with him!
Bai Yu flicked the hair on her head: "You are getting carried away."
Mu Yaoxi didn't let go of her hand. He held her waist, lifted her up horizontally and placed her on the desk. Then he walked around the desk to the French window, looked at the scenery in front of him, and squinted his eyes slightly: "The scenery here is nice."
Mu Yaoxi turned half a circle on the table, kicked off her shoes, leaned sideways on the long table, and cast a seductive look: "Do you feel like being the president of a company? Do you feel the pleasure of holding great power?"
I’ve experienced the domineering CEO style in Rome... Sister Melu’s CEO style is much better than yours, and she even has three beautiful female secretaries.
Bai Yu asked, "It's a rare trip to Shen Ce Mansion. Is there anything you need me to handle?"
"What can it be?" Mu Yaoxi turned over and sat up, pushing him down to sit on the wide office chair, and then stepped on Bai Yu's thighs with her legs in 60D black stockings: "The higher your reputation, the less trouble Shen Ce Mansion will encounter. At present, Wu Sheng Pavilion has stopped operating, and everyone in Shen Wu Division has to follow our instructions."
"Too much is as bad as too little." Bai Yu reminded: "This is a supervisory organization, not an authoritarian police uniform guard."
"Don't worry, I haven't done anything excessive, but some places can't stand up to scrutiny." Mu Yaoxi handed over a folder and said, "You'll know when you have time. Xuan Tian Si has too many internal problems."
Bai Yu opened the folder and took a look... He looked at it for a full fifteen minutes. The only sounds in the room were the turning of pages and Mu Yaoxi's somewhat rapid breathing.
She did not wait obediently for Bai Yu to finish reading the content. Instead, she put her feet on his thighs and crawled around with her toes being more flexible than her fingers. Then Bai Yu pinched her with one hand, and he pressed the acupoints on the sole of her foot and gave her a foot massage, attacking the kidney reflex area several times... Then Miss Mu was out of breath.
The girl sitting on the desk was half limp, sweating profusely and breathing sweetly. This scene seemed inappropriate for children no matter how you looked at it.
Bai Yu closed the folder and retracted his right hand. "I've read it all. There is indeed nothing wrong with your handling... But for now, you still have to stop. Rather than sending these people directly to the Hell of Yama, I prefer to let them play their due value."
"What is it?"
"You'll know later."
After saying that, Bai Yu walked into the room, turned on the faucet, rinsed his right hand, and used hand sanitizer.
Mu Yaoxi hugged her knees and said, "My feet don't smell."
"That's why you have to wash your hands." Bai Yu replied, "Didn't your family teach you a simple truth?"
“Wash your hands often to stay healthy?”
“Don’t play with the ingredients.”
"……Pooh!"
After being stunned for three seconds, Mu Yaoxi realized that this was a dirty talk. She spat first, then raised her eyebrows: "Why, you still want to try it? I heard that some people like the smell of wearing thick stockings and covering themselves in long boots for a whole day..."
"Although this is in accordance with the etiquette of porridge, please refuse it." Bai Yu shook his head: "I prefer lighter taste."
Bending down to pick up the high-heeled shoes that fell on the ground, he lifted her calves. His palms and fingers seemed to sink into cotton candy, with a soft and elastic touch. After putting the shoes on her, Bai Yu let go of her hand and pinched Mu Yaoxi's face again: "I have something else to do, so I'll stop here today. Huang Qixia and Tao Rusu will stay here and meet at Bei Ming's house after get off work today."
After flirting with the girl, he left calmly.
Mu Yaoxi sat on the table, looking at the back of the departing figure, touching her cheek, and whispered: "Why is this guy so shameless all of a sudden, and so skilled... Am I lagging behind?"
If she knew the details, she would understand that she was not just lagging behind, but was lagging behind by a large margin.
……
Daxia, Zhonghu.
The last time I came to the gate of Zhonghu was half a week ago.
Now it has returned to its original appearance. The road has been repaired and even the traces of the previous battle have been smoothed out. Every tile fits tightly together and it doesn't look like anyone has passed by here.
The only thing is that the security guard who changed his shift became a somewhat old-fashioned middle-aged man instead of an old man holding wolfberry water in his hand, which proves that things in the world have changed.
This time Bai Yu had no obstruction in entering here.
Thinking back to how much effort and thought it took to get here in the first place, even Ren Nanbei, who was leading the way, had to wait for the result at the gate.
After passing through the outer layer of the Central Lake, there was a person waiting in front. It was the Director of the Astronomy Department, Miu Tianji. He and Bai Yu were old acquaintances, but it was a one-sided acquaintance.
Miu Tianji came forward and greeted him enthusiastically: "Bai Jiaoyang, oh no, I should call you Bai Sheng today... Time flies so fast. When I think back to the first time we met, you were still..."
Bai Yu interrupted, "I have goose bumps all over my body. Are you still playing awkward games at your age?"
Miu Tianji put his hands in his pockets and said, "I am a very outgoing person, and since you will be sitting in Huo Qiushui's position in the future, I will have to deal with you. How about we behave harmoniously and become close friends regardless of age difference?"
Bai Yu rolled his eyes and said nothing.
"The two behind you are your two beauties from Fusang, right?" Miu Tianji took out two jade pendants from his pocket and handed them over: "It's our first meeting, so this is a small gift, not a token of respect, but they are both magical jades from the Shang and Zhou dynasties."
"A treasure that's two or three thousand years old?" Minami Shiori was flattered: "You're too polite."
"Thank you very much." Amamiya Mahiru politely returned the greeting.
Bai Yu glanced at it and pointed out, "From Shang Zhou? I think it was from last week."
Miu Tianji waved his sleeves and said, "Anyway, they are all spiritual jades, in pairs, and I personally brought them back from gambling on the stones... If it weren't for these two pieces of jade, I wouldn't be able to make up for my lost luck in a short time."
He led Bai Yu forward and introduced: "Although you have been to Zhonghu several times, you don't know much about it. I will introduce it to you later. Although Zhonghu is not big, it is not small either."
"Is it necessary?" Bai Yu asked.
"You will understand it later." Miu Tianji put his hands on his sleeves.
The group soon arrived at the villa in Zhonghu. Even through the outer wall, they could see the vibrant tree inside the courtyard.
