2: Chapter 2 This guy not only slacks off at work, but he's also incredibly audacious with his lustful behavior?

Xia Ning smiled faintly. Her impression of Qin Xun improved slightly; after all, what he said was sincere and correct.

Dressing too ostentatiously in the workplace is indeed a major taboo.

Furthermore, for an "employee" to dress more like a CEO than the CEO themselves—isn't that just asking for trouble?

Qin Xun stared at the computer screen with a serious expression, slowly typing away at his keyboard as he worked on a PPT.

He had been at it continuously for 25 minutes. This broke his record for continuous work over the past half-month.

You see, he usually dragged his work out until after hours, utilizing those few minutes of overtime to finish it all in Overclocking Mode.

Slacking off during work hours is called "slacking," but working after hours is called… being a masochist.

He would rather be a masochist than miss out on a few extra minutes of slacking.

Xia Ning observed Qin Xun secretly for a while and nodded with satisfaction.

This employee, despite looking young—around her own age—was actually quite reliable.

Clear thinking. Efficient. Good attitude!

Not wanting to lose face in front of an employee, she quickly logged into her email, opened a message, and played a video.

Suddenly, she felt a bit dizzy; her low blood sugar must be acting up. She quickly took three chocolates from her bag and placed them on the desk.

One round chocolate rolled over toward Qin Xun's side.

Qin Xun was typing earnestly when suddenly, he felt something round bump against his arm.

He turned his head and saw a chocolate resting against his arm. He looked over at Xia Ning.

Qin Xun's expression became colorful, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of respect!

On Xia Ning's desk sat a chocolate, and she was holding half of one in her hand. There was even a crumb of chocolate on her crimson lips.

And her computer screen was playing a video—not exactly something professional.

It was a video of a bunch of black pigs running, fighting, and mating all over the mountains!

Qin Xun's eyes widened. Amazing! First day on the job! Eating snacks! Watching pigs fight! She's even more audacious than me!

Suddenly, Qin Xun heard the familiar click of high heels. He didn't even need to look to know it was Cheng Wan, the person who issued the ridiculous rule: "No snacks allowed during work hours."

He swiftly reached out, snatched the two chocolates from Xia Ning's desk, and stuffed them into his pants pocket.

Xia Ning was startled: "You…" Before she could finish, a large hand swiftly wiped her mouth.

Then, with lightning speed, he snatched the half-eaten chocolate from her hand and tossed it into the trash can under the desk.

Xia Ning was dumbfounded. She had lived for over twenty years and had never encountered someone who would snatch food right out of her hand. And he wiped my mouth too?

Just as she was about to ask, "What are you doing?" she saw Qin Xun raise an eyebrow at her, gesturing for her to stay quiet.

Qin Xun operated his own keyboard with his right hand, while his left hand reached over to Xia Ning's keyboard, tapping away rapidly.

On Xia Ning's computer screen, the video closed! The email logged out! A blank PPT document opened.

He even typed a line of text: [The company is our home, let's all maintain it together.]

Xia Ning stared at Qin Xun, stunned and disbelieving. What kind of hand speed was that? A few seconds? Maybe ten?

Closing the video, logging out of the email, opening a document, typing text—a whole series of operations, all done with one hand.

He didn't even use the mouse! Did he really do all that in just over ten seconds?

She knew that some veteran programmers, in pursuit of speed, would forgo the mouse and operate directly via the keyboard.

But this was just too exaggerated! Just then, Cheng Wan walked up to her workstation, leaned over, and whispered, "Xia… Ning, please prepare a self-introduction for today. You'll need to introduce yourself at tomorrow's morning meeting."

Xia Ning nodded. "Understood!" Watching Cheng Wan's retreating figure, she realized that Qin Xun's actions just moments ago were to prevent Cheng Wan from discovering… that she was slacking off.

Qin Xun must have thought I was just messing around by watching that wild boar video. Do I really have such eccentric tastes?

Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun, her gaze falling on his fingers. Thinking of his terrifying hand speed earlier, she felt a complex mix of emotions.

This company really is full of hidden talents, isn't it? Is he even human?

Suddenly, Xia Ning noticed Qin Xun staring at her with a smile, a look that seemed like he had found… a kindred spirit?

She felt a bit creeped out. Just as she was about to lose her composure, Qin Xun lowered his voice and chuckled, "First day on the job, watching videos, eating snacks—is this how you slack off?"

"What company could withstand you slacking off like this?"

Xia Ning: "…" She looked at Qin Xun in silence, feeling a bit pleased.

If all the employees in the company were like Qin Xun—treating the company as their own home—how wonderful that would be.

Then how could the company fail to land a single order in half a month? This kind of employee must be heavily relied upon in the future!

She looked at Qin Xun, about to explain, when she saw him point at the ceiling and say mysteriously, "That's not how you slack off!"

Xia Ning followed his finger and looked up to see a surveillance camera in the corner of the ceiling.

Her expression shifted slightly. She lowered her head and looked at Qin Xun, remaining silent. Vaguely, she sensed that this situation was not as simple as it seemed!

Qin Xun turned his head and continued working diligently. He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, as if his back was pricked by thorns and a bone was stuck in his throat—it was incredibly uncomfortable.

Suddenly, he heard a soft voice. "Then… Senior, I've always been like this at work. Was my slacking just now not up to par?"

"Then, if I may ask, how exactly is it done properly?"

Hearing the word "Senior," Qin Xun felt instantly satisfied.

Just a moment ago, the slacking system had suddenly sent a notification: [Teach a new colleague how to slack off, and you will receive a lucky draw opportunity!]

He turned to look at Xia Ning, who appeared earnest and eager to learn, and asked with a slight smile, "You want to learn?"

Xia Ning hesitated for a moment before nodding seriously. "I do!"

She stared at Qin Xun quietly with her beautiful fox-like eyes. "Since you've asked so sincerely, I'll take pity on you and teach you."

As he spoke, Qin Xun picked up his phone, which had been face down on the desk, and unlocked it with his thumb.

The screen showed a game-over interface. "Slacking off requires you to keep your eyes on all six directions and your ears open to all sides."

"You must be able to switch rapidly between working and slacking!" "The boss thinks you're writing a PPT, but in reality, you're playing a game."

He waved his phone. "If you guys hadn't come and interrupted me just now, I would have already secured a penta-kill!"

"You might not believe it, but in the half-month since I joined this company, I've been climbing the ranks like crazy, binge-watched three web dramas, read two novels, and learned to cook eight dishes by watching short videos."

Xia Ning gasped. Could it be… that the one-handed speed he used to operate my computer earlier was honed through slacking off?

If even the model employee that Cheng Wan values is a master slacker, then isn't the entire company completely rotten?

By his logic, he hasn't done a single bit of work in the past half-month! Seeing her expression turn sour, Qin Xun asked, "What's wrong?"

He was very concerned about this newcomer who could trigger system tasks—that represented a lucky draw opportunity! He had to take good care of her, cherish her. Ahem… it definitely had nothing to do with her beauty.

Xia Ning took a deep breath, steadied herself, and forced a rather awkward smile. "I'm just… having a bit of low blood sugar."

Qin Xun pulled two chocolates from his pocket and pressed them into her hand. Xia Ning thanked him out of habit: "Thanks!"

Qin Xun waved his hand and smiled, "Don't mention it, they're yours anyway."

Xia Ning: "…" She lowered her head, lost in thought, peeled open the chocolate wrapper, and popped it into her mouth.

The chocolate she usually loved most didn't seem sweet at all at this moment.

Suddenly, she felt her chair being dragged. She turned her head and saw Qin Xun pulling her chair toward his side.

Her expression changed instantly. This guy doesn't just slack off at work, he's also got the nerve to be lecherous? Is he trying to make a move on his female boss?
