Chapter 119: Deep into the enemy territory.

Two people arrived at the front of the classroom, and since the door was closed, Xu Lin could only knock on it.

"Come in," the teacher's voice rang out, and they pushed open the door and entered.

All the students in the class turned to look at them.

Then the room instantly became noisy, as gossip was an indispensable part of student life.

The teacher looked sternly at them without saying anything, gesturing towards their seats. They quickly returned to their seats.

"Stand up."

"Okay." Xu Lin and Ji Yun both nodded.

Fortunately, the teacher wasn't that strict, and a few minutes later, they were allowed to sit down and continue with the morning self-study session.

"I'll be right back. Monitor and study committee member, maintain class order."

The teacher quickly walked out, and others glanced over. A few boys nearby shouted, "Xu Lin, you're awesome!"

"Class monitor, class monitor, how did you all come together?"

"Class monitor, tell us, when did you two get together?"

"Class monitor Ji, does this mean our friend Xu Lin's confession was successful?"

"Xu Lin, you actually appeared on TV! And it's CCTV!"

[T/N: CCTV=China Central Television]

"Hey hey, how come you're acting now?"

"Have you talked to Chu Qingchan?!"

"Is Chu Qingchan really as cold and distant as she is on TV?"

As they shouted a couple of times, others also chimed in with their questions!

The topic shifted from emotional issues at the beginning to discussions about Xu Lin's acting.

Xu Lin suddenly realized this and forgot about it, but fortunately, the classmates around were relatively calm and didn't rush over so excitedly.

As the famously hot-tempered academic committee member, Zhuo Yan slammed the table and stood up.

"Keep it down, we're being monitored! Remember last time when the head teacher took away our break time for half a month? Do you really want to try that again?!"

But to be honest, the best friend is also very curious, but she can't be the one to ask first, so she can only hold back for now.

Ji Yun also stood up and walked to the platform, imitating the expressionless manner of Chu Qingchan, speaking to the students below.

"Don't spread rumors, everyone. I live close to Xu Lin, and I've seen him recently exercising and walking to school."

"I was just studying and bumped into him on the way, but because I walked slower than Xu Lin, so we arrived late."

"It's okay to chat and gossip, but spreading it too much isn't good, especially if the teachers hear it. Some classmates are really dating."

"As for Xu Lin acting, ask him yourselves after the morning self-study."

Ji Yun's calm and imposing demeanor silenced the crowd as they looked towards Xu Lin, who nodded in agreement, gradually quieting everyone down.

However, most students still held a certain degree of suspicion about their relationship, but lacking evidence, as Xu Lin and the class monitor never showed any intimate gestures at school.

Furthermore, being mostly 16 or 17 years old, the students were naturally more curious about Xu Lin's acting skills, so the matter of the two coming to school together seemed less important.

Xu Lin, sitting at his desk at the moment, felt like he had a lot on his plate. After class, he was about to experience everyone's enthusiasm.

After all, it was just acting, and he inadvertently ended up trending, didn't he?

"Xu Lin, Xu Lin."

"Li Bin, do you also have something to ask? Didn't I tell you not to ask?"

"It's not that. Have you sorted out Ma Zhiyu's matter?"

"Oh, I almost forgot. Did you go see him yesterday?"

"I did. He's getting a bit anxious now. If we can't sort it out in the next couple of days, he'll still have to stand in for his girlfriend."

"I've already found a solution. I'll contact the other party at noon, and I'll also let Ma Zhiyu know so he doesn't worry."

To be honest, Xu Lin didn't know when Qin Yunhe would take action, but the most important thing was that he feared she might alert the enemy, which would be troublesome.

And just as Xu Lin was thinking about this, Qin Yunhe, dressed plainly with a deliberately altered appearance and minimal makeup, arrived at the heart of the East City's commercial district.

She looked around at the various signs and eventually stopped in front of the signboard of a company named "Wanwu Lianting Network Technology."

"It's here, right? I'm a college graduate currently looking for a job. I'm introverted and not very good at speaking."

She walked in slowly, and there were two decent-looking women sitting at the front desk in the lobby. She nervously approached the front desk.

"Hello, my name is Qin He, and I'm here for an interview."

"Hello, please wait a moment."

The two women were still quite polite, smiling and saying a few words before making a phone call. Half a minute later, they nodded.

"Miss Qin, I'll take you upstairs."

"Okay."

Qin Yunhe followed up the stairs with her eyes secretly scanning the surroundings.

The first floor wasn't big, just about 40 square meters, with no rooms, just a lobby, a reception desk, and the stairs.

On the second floor, everything seemed normal as well, with simple decoration and over 20 workstations separated by plastic partitions.

Only a few workstations were empty, and everyone else was typing non-stop.

There didn't seem to be anything special on the surface, but she could feel something.

Everyone is very nervous, which is already suspicious enough, but more evidence is needed.

I need to investigate further.

Then there's the office directly opposite after going upstairs, occupying a quarter of the second floor.

Upon entering, there's no sense of foul play, but rather a pleasant fragrance.

A man around 40 years old with a square face is sitting in an office chair.

Apart from the desk, there's only a small coffee table, with two single-seater sofas on either side, and no other decorations.

"Sit."

"You... Are you Manager Huang?" Qin Yunhe stood trembling, looking at the sofa, seemingly wanting to sit but not daring to.

The other party waved his hand, and the receptionist walked out.

He got up and sat down opposite, smiling with his teeth showing, appearing amiable and welcoming.

"Miss, please sit. We're a small place here, no formalities. This isn't really an interview, just a process of getting to know each other."

"Mm."

"Qin He?"

"Yes."

"You just graduated from a vocational college, 21 this year? What did you study?"

"I studied nursing."

"Why didn't you continue studying and get a certification? It's relatively easy to find a job in this field."

"I noticed you make money typing on the computer... and it doesn't require any... educational qualifications. I type very quickly, so I thought I'd give it a try."

"Oh, really? Here, you can actually make money just by typing, and it's not tiring! Plus, there's meal allowance and accommodation, 8 hours a day, comfortable all year round."

"As long as you work diligently, the salary starts at least from 5k, and after working for half a year, you also get social insurance and housing fund!"

Upon hearing the other party say this, Qin Yunhe almost instinctively rolled her eyes.

They really say whatever they want, huh!

She has never seen a job so simple, with no educational requirements, yet offering comfortable conditions all year round, meal allowances, and accommodation? Even social insurance and housing fund, are they trying to fool someone?!

"Mainly what are you doing? Do you have any requests?" But she still pretended to be an honest person and asked.

"I don't have any major requests, the only thing is that I want you to work diligently and responsibly!"

"When working, you must work well, for eight hours, you must concentrate."

"Of course, work must be taken seriously."

She nodded, fairly certain in her heart that what Xu Lin said was accurate. He only mentioned typing but didn't specify what to type.

"Did you call me based on an online job posting?" The man picked up the teapot, poured water for her, but his gaze swept over her.

Qin Yunhe instantly understood that the other party was observing her, trying to discern if she was telling the truth or not.

"I saw it on the Linshui forum, where your phone number was listed."

"That's it." The other party glanced carefully at her before retracting his gaze.

"Then come with me, see everyone's work situation, and decide whether to join or not?"

"Okay."

She stood up and followed the other party out, and casually stuffing a button into the sofa crevice.

After the two of them left, a hidden door next to the office desk opened, and two young people walked out.

"Do you think it's a real lamb?"

"I think so, let's wait and see."

"By the way, regarding Lu Man, if that guy really shows up, should we let her go?"

"Let her go, what can she do? Call the police? With how much information we have on her, would she dare?"

"True, but we do need a female voice."

"One just arrived, we can train her."

"Alright then!"
