Peng Yu couldn't accept it for a moment and ran out crying.

Chen Weihong hesitated to speak: "Boss Bu, what about the drama that Peng Yu is working on...?"

With such a scandal breaking out on the eve of joining the crew, Peng Yu's role will most likely be replaced. Chen Weihong really couldn't bear to part with the male second lead in this film, for which he had drunk so much alcohol that he got the role. He felt so painful that it felt like a thorn in his throat.

Bu Fanming glanced at Lu Jinzhao across the table and said, "Isn't there a ready-made candidate here?"

Chen Weihong's face suddenly turned as ugly as if she had eaten a fly. Peng Yu had originally snatched this role from Lu Jinzhao, and now he was going to give it back. How ridiculous it would be if anyone told others about it.

Lu Jinzhao was scrolling through his phone nonchalantly: "Is there nothing for me to do now? I'm leaving now."

No one present expected that he would not take them, the senior executives, seriously at all. But he was also a victim in this matter. After all, many of the resources that were originally intended for him were indeed transferred to Peng Yu by them, and in the end, he said nothing.

Walking out of the company, Lu Jinzhao was browsing his phone and saw that Ji Du had issued an apology statement. There were fewer criticisms online, and he gave a sarcastic smile.

It happened that the variety show called and asked him to go back to continue filming. They claimed that they had found someone to replace Peng Yu, and as a popular guest on the show, they hoped that he would continue to go back to film.

Lu Jinzhao pondered for a moment and declined the offer on the pretext that the company had new arrangements.

It wasn't really a lie, the company was planning to give him a drama. Even if he didn't care, it could be used as an excuse.

His purpose of entering the variety show was to kill Peng Yu. Now that his goal has been achieved, there is no need to go back.

It would be a trouble for him if he inexplicably attracted a bunch of fanatical CP fans.

Just as they walked across the street, Chen Weihong caught up with Lu Jinzhao and stopped him, "Wait a minute!"

Lu Jinzhao put his phone into his pocket, put his hands in his jacket pockets, and asked casually, "What's the matter?"

"Boss Wu was very angry because you didn't go to the last drinking party. This time, he asked me to take you there no matter what, otherwise the play you got back with great difficulty would be gone! Go back and pack up, dress nicely, and come with me to the dinner party tonight."

Here they come again. Lu Jinchao's eyes gradually turned cold, and he sneered, "When I treat you as a human being, you should act like one."

Chen Weihong was stunned by this taunting remark, "W-what? What's your attitude? I've always been——"

"But this is all for my own good? Since Boss Wu is so kind, you can go and accompany him." Lu Jinzhao leaned over and whispered in Chen Weihong's ear: "This is all for your own good."

Chen Weihong was so angry that she shouted, "Are you crazy?"

Lu Jinzhao was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned away. Fortunately, this place was not far from the subway station, so it was convenient for him to go home.

As soon as he opened the wooden door of the small studio, Lu Jinzhao received a call. He picked it up and said, "Hello?"

"The schedule has changed. You'll be on the early shift tomorrow."

"Got it." Lu Jinzhao hung up the phone directly. He pinched his brows and opened the system panel to check his schedule.

He had only half a day left from the milk tea shop manager. The milk tea shop was closed, so Lu Jinchao used the remaining vacation days of this month to schedule three consecutive days off. He had originally planned to quit the variety show tonight at the latest, but he didn't expect Peng Yu to be even more impatient than he thought, and achieved the ending he wanted ahead of time, so now he has more free time.

Thinking about this, Lu Jinzhao put down his suitcase, sent a WeChat message to Zhang Yong, telling him that he could take orders today, and then fell asleep.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when Lu Jinzhao woke up. He came to Zhang Yong's Internet cafe and started his money-making career.

Since we had made an appointment in advance in the morning, the man with glasses that night was in the store at this time. This man was quite cunning. He first provided his account and then shook four teammates to form a queue together. He wanted Lu Jinchao to use his account to help the other four people to gain points together, so that all five accounts could be promoted and only one person's money would be paid.

Then ask your teammates to pay him AA, spend little money to get big points, and be happy.

Seeing through this man's little trick, Lu Jinchao raised his eyebrows and didn't care about the free ride. He led the passers-by on the left and right, and led his teammates in the group, but only asked them to pay the full amount first. But the man with glasses insisted that he play first and pay after the game.

Zhang Yong was very considerate and made a billboard for Lu Jinzhao, advertising that his store provided all-round proxy play and the proxy play fee was halved. He passed by with a foam billboard and saw the glasses man making a fuss. He couldn't stand it anymore and told the glasses man not to play, because there were many people queuing behind him. He said that he would never do anything related to others.

The man with glasses left cursing and threatening to ruin their reputation.

Zhang Yong didn't take it seriously at all and went to post advertisements happily.

Late at night, Lu Jinzhao was lying on the bed in his rented small studio, looking at the extra several thousand yuan in his balance and the increasing points in the mall, and he said with a sigh, "It's really easy to gain favor when being a star. It's increased so much in just two days."

He added attribute points on the task panel, adding points to appearance, temperament, agility, force, and internal strength one by one, until he could no longer add any more.

Chitose: "Would you consider quitting your job at the milk tea shop and focusing on your career in the entertainment industry?"

Lu Jinzhao: "I will definitely quit. I don't like jobs that pay little but are very demanding. But the entertainment industry is full of people who eat people without leaving any bones. Let's wait and see."

......

At 7:50 the next day, Lu Jinzhao was the first to arrive at the store and clock in by scanning his face.

The normal opening time of the store is 9:00 a.m., but because the preparation work is so cumbersome, including preparing materials, brewing tea, turning on lights and machines, counting materials, etc., two people usually work the early shift together.

Half an hour later, Lu Jinchao had almost finished all the preparations before another colleague from the early shift finally arrived.

After punching in, the male colleague walked in with a beaming face. He hooked his hands around Lu Jinzhao's neck and pointed at the fresh red marks on his neck. His tone was full of pride and boasting: "I got that girl you mentioned last time. How is it? Aren't you awesome? Last time we asked you to go clubbing with us, but you didn't go. If you had gone, you wouldn't be a virgin until now."

Lu Jinzhao seemed to see a male peacock in heat. He turned sideways, avoiding the male colleague's hand, and said coldly: "Lin Kai, I don't care about your private affairs, please don't affect our work. I will help you with today's work, there won't be a next time."

Lin Kai suddenly looked embarrassed. He had always looked down on this timid guy in the store. He never went to the bar when he was invited to drink, and he never participated when they talked about women. He suspected that this guy was a perverted homosexual.

Being humiliated by the sissy, Lin Kai could not hold back his temper. He raised his head and said sarcastically, "Ha! No wonder you got kicked out of the entertainment industry! You must be aware of the abuses you receive online! There are photos of you cuddling with old men all over the place!"

The so-called photos are nothing but false information used by Wu Qiming to maliciously edit surveillance footage to smear and suppress Zhou Ye when he failed to molest Zhou Ye.

Lu Jinchao was unmoved: "I can at least enter the entertainment industry with my face. You want to get in, but it's a pity you can't, right? It's not your fault that you are short and ugly. Don't be so self-deprecating."

Lin Kai was shorter than Lu Jinchao, about 1.7 meters tall. His impression of the original owner, Zhou Ye, was still there, and he felt that the pressure brought by the height difference was not so obvious. He grabbed Lu Jinchao's collar with both hands and gritted his teeth and said, "Do you want to be beaten? I am talking to you because I respect you! Is this your attitude towards your seniors in the same company?"

The milk tea shop they work for is a large chain milk tea shop with over 20,000 stores nationwide, located in major cities, and there are long queues at almost every store in downtown areas.

There are at least six positions in the store, divided into three shifts: morning, noon and evening. Employees take turns to eat and take days off, so there must be someone to cover for them. Therefore, there will be at least seven people working in each morning, noon and evening shift, and there can be more than ten full-time employees.

The store where Lu Jinzhao worked had more male employees than female employees. When there were more men, the topic always revolved around women. Several male colleagues, led by Lin Kai, always discussed the looks and figures of female customers during their free time, or went out in groups to smoke, laze around and look at beautiful women, and never did any serious work.

The only two male colleagues who have girlfriends are a little more restrained, but they still make some dirty jokes from time to time.

In comparison, the original owner Zhou Ye's silence and self-discipline made him seem very unsociable.

In addition, those people were all old employees who had worked in the store for more than two years, and they were keen to bully the newcomers by taking advantage of their seniority. Therefore, they always excluded the original owner intentionally or unintentionally, not only throwing things they didn't want to do to the original owner, but also mocking the original owner for being a sissy.

Once when they went to the staff dormitory for a midnight snack, they happened to run into Zhou Ye who had just finished taking a shower. They discovered scars all over Zhou Ye's body, and they also happened to see Wu Qiming asking the marketing account to release negative information. After a few people discussed it, they felt that Zhou Ye was a perverted gay who liked men and liked to seduce older men. He must have often played restricted games, otherwise why would his body be covered with signs of abuse? Most likely, he played too perverted games.

Since then, the exclusion of several people has gone from the dark to the open, which can be said to have reached the level of workplace bullying. Zhou Ye couldn't stand it anymore, so he moved out of the staff dormitory and rented a house by himself, which added a large amount of rent every month.

As the amount of money received decreased, Zhou Hongda beat and scolded the original owner: "Why do people bully you and not others? You are so hypocritical. I want you to move out just because I say a few words to you. Do you know that 800 yuan rent is your brother's food money for a month!"

If it weren't for the good salary, the original owner might have quit long ago.

It can be said that these people cannot escape responsibility for Zhou Ye’s death.

Lin Kai was still chattering on and on about being a perverted homosexual.

Zhou Ye is dead, and no one knows whether he has a hidden sexual orientation. Lu Jinchao only knows that Zhou Ye has a female lover, and respects all sexual orientations, and does not think that any sexual orientation should be discriminated against. If there is any discrimination, it should be against people who have bad conduct, not sexual orientation.

Lu Jinzhao pried Lin Kai's hand apart, threw it aside, straightened his collar, and said in a nonchalant voice, "Senior? You? You don't do this or that, and you go to the toilet for an hour or two without coming back, leaving everything to others. If someone doesn't know, they would think you fell into the toilet. Are you some kind of toilet cleaning senior?"

Lin Kai saw the contempt and disdain in Lu Jinzhao's eyes, and his defense broke down: "Fuck your mother! You sissy dare to teach me!"

Lin Kai said as he threw a punch towards Lu Jinzhao's face. Lu Jinzhao stood there calmly, caught the incoming punch, twisted Lin Kai's arm with his backhand, threw him to the ground over his shoulder. The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground was painful to hear.

Adjusting his apron, Lu Jinchao showed a rare expression, with a hint of sarcasm on his face, "You called me a sissy, but what are you? A thin dog."

Lin Kai grimaced in pain, and it took him a long time to get up from the ground. He was so angry that he continued to attack without giving up. But his aim was too poor, and there were many flaws. Lu Jinchao could easily dodge and his moves could not hit him, which made Lin Kai even angrier.

The store manager happened to come at this time, and Lin Kai had to restrain his attack. There were surveillance cameras everywhere in the store, and he couldn't stand the investigation by the store manager, so he had to walk away in dismay.

He had simulated the daily work of a milk tea shop in the practice room last night. Now he has become more proficient and can do it quickly and well. Even the usually strict manager praised him for his progress when he came to inspect.

Soon it was lunch time. Lu Jinchao, as the first person to go to work, was the first to eat. From the moment he stepped out of the store, the store manager timed him for half an hour.

Some employees asked for leave, and there was a shortage of staff, so the store manager asked them to work overtime one by one. He arrived at 8 o'clock, and in the whole day, including the time for two meals, he stood for eleven hours. He kept talking and his hands never stopped, and even a strong man like Lu Jinzhao began to ache all over.

Pure physical labor is not exercise at all, at most it is exhaustion. For this one-day-off job where you either don’t get a meal in eight hours or are required to eat two meals within two hours, the store opens at eight and counts as working hours until nine, and the time between eleven and cleaning and no work hours until twelve is not counted, there is no subway and taxi ride home after work and no reimbursement, meetings last from twelve to three in the morning, colleagues are stupid and the manager is hypocritical, the salary is not high but there are a lot of things to do, Lu Jinzhao reasonably suspected that the labor law was meaningless in this case, and he asked the store manager to resign that day.

The store manager tried to retain him, but Lu Jinchao was very determined, so the store manager finally agreed.

After submitting the resignation application, you can only leave after one month, otherwise all commissions and subsidies will be deducted. Lu Jinchao doesn't care about that little money, but that is what the original owner deserves, and there is no reason to give it away to this black-hearted company. But it doesn't matter, it's just a bad job, it's not a big deal for him, and a month can pass quickly.

Besides, he hasn't taken revenge on some people yet.

After work in the evening, Lu Jinzhao took the subway for an hour before returning home.

As soon as he entered the house, Lu Jinzhao's originally calm mood seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water. According to the slight breathing sound coming from the house, someone entered his house, and there was more than one person.

He picked up the clothes rail next to the shoe rack and held it in front of his chest: "Who?"

The lights in the room were turned on, and the situation inside was immediately visible. Someone was sitting on Lu Jinzhao's bed - the single room was too small, and there was almost no room for anything else except the bed, not to mention that this uninvited guy had set up a candlelight dinner next to the bed.

Lu Jinchao was in a strange mood. A surprise candlelight dinner was romantic for a couple in love, but if it was arranged by a perverted old man who broke into his house like he was doing now, it should be classified as a horror.

In front of him was a middle-aged man of medium build, wearing a neat black suit, with a low nose bridge, sunken eyelids, and a sleazy face that seemed to be covered with a layer of greasy skin cream. Lu Jinzhao remembered that this man was Wu Qiming, who sexually harassed Zhou Ye by using hidden rules, coercion and inducement.

Zhou Ye's face was extremely beautiful, so beautiful that it was hard to tell whether he was male or female. In addition, he was small, so at first glance, people would mistake him for a girl. Wu Qiming was one of them, and he continued to pursue Zhou Ye even after he learned that he was a man.

However, Lu Jinchao has already reshaped his body and face, and the system has changed his memory and image data. His "modeling" has changed from O to A, but Wu Qiming still insists on pestering him, which he cannot understand.

Glancing at the bodyguards filling the small room, Lu Jinzhao became a little annoyed: "What do you want to do?"

Why are there so many weirdos every day? Can you please let him be quiet for a while?
