Junior sister from the same company

Yin yang(1) frog: @everyone take a look! What do guys think of my newest fav? *heart eyes*

Within moments after this message was sent out, other people started appearing online in the chat, sending out messages one by one. This bunch of people– if one doesn't know better, he/she would end up thinking they were a pack of top-class idlers.

Well… technically some of them can be called idlers, barely. But no one here actually calls them that. Them being the younger scions of capital's -and in that manner, the country's- top families, they knew when to draw boundaries and when to hold back. Regardless of how many jokes they cracked.

But, this group of people had another specialty -more like a hobby- that they had developed through the years as a whole lot. Their thirst for and the first-class ability to gossip. And within moments, the whole chat was bustling like a market on a weekend.

Greatest young master of the capital: Oi froggy- where did you find this babe? Don't tell me that she's your newest pick?

Yin yang frog: Dude, you changed your user name again? How many times is that?

Mosquito's true love: Fuck! Seriously man, don't tell me that she's your new girlfriend? Isn't that fucking unfair?

Greatest young master of the capital: Right! If you compare froggy's face with this girl's... The contrast is somehow like between sky and earth?

Greatest young master of the capital: Also, I think this name suits me better than anything I used before.

Greatest young master of the capital: After all, I finally managed to get one over that old man at home. Aren't I just frigging amazing?

Mosquito's true love: …

Immortal's dao: In our froggy's case, won't that be like a toad wishing to eat swan meat(2)? Ah, I forgot… froggy is no longer a toad. So, it's a case of a frog wishing to eat swan meat, eh?

Yin yang frog: …

Mosquito's true love: *ROFL*

Greatest young master of the capital: *laugh laugh laugh*

Braised pig trotters: *hitting the floor while laughing.jpg*

In no more than five minutes, the whole chat was filled with a bunch of hahahas and laughing emojis and GIFs. And a certain young master who was currently in S city, and who possessed a not-so-good-looking face blew up while holding his phone. The screen was still pinging nonstop, announcing incoming messages.

'... These fuckers! Each one of them worse than the last!' The said unfortunate young master with ordinary looks trembled in anger and started typing furiously, as his fingers started to move like a blur. And in the next moment, angry messages filled with curses and complaints barraged in a rush, filling the chat interface.

Yin yang frog: You fuckers! You always making fun of my looks! What's wrong with my face? I might not be handsome as that Luo Cheng, but I'm not ugly!

Yin yang frog: I hope you guys rot in hell and your *beep* rot and fall off! Curse you lot! You'll be born looking like ugly mofos your next life.

Yin yang frog: @Immortal's dao I hope you can never use your *beep* your entire life and you get *beep* by some *beep* and then *beep* and then blah blah blah.

Immortal's dao: …

Yin yang frog: Let me tell you. This woman in the photo– she might look beautiful, but she's just some little actress who caused a big scandal by sleeping with a bunch of men.

Yin yang frog: You guys think that this young master doesn't lack money or status to go after this type of loose woman? At most, I'll just *beep* her for a round or two.

My old man is a tyrant: … So, your point is?

Yin yang frog: You think I'll get this type of woman as my girlfriend? So what if she looks better? Is she the type that I would set my eyes on? You guys are delusional!

Jade butterfly: *Innocent stare.jpg*

Yin yang frog: …

Immortal's dao: … Froggy, it's your trouble now. Deal with it.

Girls chase me everywhere: He-hey sister Jade, you were here too.

Jade butterfly: *smile*

Seeing the suddenly well-behaved chat, the ordinary-looking young master felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head. 'Shit! Forgot our class girls are in the group chat as well.' Why was he even born in the first place? How can he face people anymore? It's all the fault of that rowdy bunch!

But just as he was wallowing in self-pity and stewing in hatred towards his so-called friends(bullies), another message popped up on the now placid screen, and this young master who was already pretty depressed felt his eyes popping out in surprise. Not just because of the content of the message– but mostly because of the sender himself.

Chasing the clouds: This person in the photo is a junior sister from my company.

"Ah'Cheng! Why aren't you sleeping?"

Luo Cheng expressionlessly looked up, and after one more glance that showed the screen of the phone getting flooded with all sorts of messages asking for him to reply, begging his forgiveness, asking if this junior sister was his new love, etc. he threw it on to the bedside table and properly laid down.

Qin Mu looked suspiciously at his unusually obedient artist. He was going to sleep just like that because he was told to? Is the sun going to rise from the west tomorrow?

In the end, Qin Mu still pushed down his doubts and advised seriously. "Sleep now and don't play with your phone. You still have to film in the evening and night."

"Hmmm."

Really accepted it just like that? Maybe this person was also stressed, even if he didn't show it? "Ah'Cheng, just bear with it a bit more. Next week, you can go back home and have a good rest ne."

After repeatedly telling the other to get a shut-eye, Qin Mu prepared to leave the trailer, just short of confiscating Luo Cheng's phone. Not because he trusted this little boss not to play with it once he was gone, but more like he was afraid to confiscate it from the other's hands in the first place.

This person– he might look serene and calm and dignified, but he was a black devil inside all that refined exterior. Qin Mu who had years of experience with the other knew this fact better than anyone else.

Seeing that his charge had properly closed his eyes and was showing every sign of being willing to take a rest, he hypnotized himself to believe that the other would really keep his word and opened the door to go outside. It was at this moment that Luo Cheng opened his mouth and said something that was quite unexpected.

"When we go back, take a vacation. I'll reimburse your expenses."

Qin Mu stopped and looked back at the person awkwardly curled up on the small bed inside the trailer. The other's eyes were closed and his face looked peaceful. Did this guy just say what he really think he said?

Luo Cheng was a generous boss. He'd regularly give out big bonuses and other similar benefits to those working under him. Regarding this point, no one would complain. But in turn, they were expected to slave away like cattle.

As for holidays? Heh! What was that? Never heard of it before!

He would never– I mean like ever give holidays to his employees. Not voluntarily anyway! If his underlings asked and begged for it, he might give one– but only if he felt like it. And if he was too swamped with work– sorry, no word called holidays in Luo Cheng's vocabulary in those times!

Having this type of boss… the employees under him could only be said to be both happy and troubled at the same time. After all, they all get to enjoy money and other luxuries -Qin Mu recently got a brand new luxury car after this person learned he had been using a normal car from some normal brand for years- but on the other hand, they get no extra rest time.

So, now hearing these words from his artist– need I say how moved our little assistant felt, eh? Even if the top beauty of Star dreams' employee pool came and asked to go out with him, he won't be moved to this extent ah!

Glossary:

01) Yin yang - I think many of you might have already heard about the yin and yang concept. It's a Chinese philosophical concept that describes opposing forces which are interconnected. 'Yin' is considered the receptive energy, while 'Yang' is considered the active energy. Many of you might have already seen the yin and yang symbol, a circle with equal portions of black and white; black representing yin and white representing yang.

02) A toad wishing to eat swan meat - This is a Chinese saying that refers to when a person has unrealistic and wishful aspirations. Especially in regards to matters like relationships and marriage. For example, when a not-so-good-looking and old person aspires to marry an extremely beautiful and young person. After all, a toad and a swan can't be compared on the same wavelength, despite them both being water-inhabiting creatures.
