BXBX NOVEL Chapter 362 - OG 1.3
Long Shen walked towards Yunyu and nudged his body with the tip of his shoes, "Don\'t pretend. Wake up."
Long Shen nudged Yunyu again with his shoes, but there was no movement on this ugly guy. He was like a dead man. Long Shen frowned and crouched to check on his Yunyu\'s breathing.
\'His breath is really weak,\' Long Shen thought. Yunyu fainted face down on his stomach. Thus, Long Shen rolled Yunyu so he could see his appearance. And Long Shen was astonished when he saw the ugly guy was really pale, and his lips were chapped. As if he had endured a cold, harsh night.
Long Shen touched Yunyu\'s forehead and realized that it was really hot, and he was sweating a lot. Long Shen shook Yunyu\'s body, "Hey, Bai Yunyu, don\'t pretend like this. This is not funny. I will get sued if you die under my employment!"
…
No answer.
Long Shen started to get really worried. Knowing that Yunyu might\'ve died because of overworked. Long Shen called the ambulance, and Bai Yunyu was taken to the hospital soon. After Yunyu got taken by the medical staff, Long Shen stayed longer inside Bai Yunyu\'s small apartment. He searched Yunyu\'s backpack to take all his notes, schedule, and script.
But what caught him first was dozens of sticky notes on the wall. And there were lots of sticker emojis on each note.
It sparked Long Shen\'s curiosity, of course. He never knew that someone as dull as Bai Yunyu could have such a colourful wall. He walked to read some of the sticky notes.
*To myself: Bai Yunyu, you\'re ugly, but don\'t let it ruin your spirit! You can do it, you can get a job!*
*To myself: Finally a job! And my first job is to be Long Shen\'s assistant! Can you believe that? Movie Emperor\'s assistant?! Is this a dream or what?*
Long Shen chuckled at such naivety written on it. Little did Bai Yunyu knew that it wasn\'t hard for Long Shen to replace an incompetent assistant. And it was easy to recruit one. But Bai Yunyu was probably the first assistant that can last this long under his pressure.
Seeing such naivety with cute stickers on Bai Yunyu\'s wall prompted Long Shen to read more of these sticky notes. But the more he read it, he somehow felt… guilty.
*To myself: Mr. Long Shen is a hard worker. He works really hard with a packed schedule every day. It makes me want to suggest a break on him. So I can get a break also. My back is killing me.*
*To Long Shen: Sir, please don\'t be so scary when I did something wrong. I tried my best, really, but your schedule is killing me. I know that you\'re a good man. Since you often told me to donate some of your earnings to the orphanage.*
*To Long Shen: Mr. Long Shen is so handsome today in the movie set. He acts as the main lead CEO, and I can\'t help to admire him. The female lead is so lucky…*
Long Shen read further and saw the sticky note that was glittered.
*To myself: Bai Yunyu, you grew in an orphanage, don\'t forget your identity and share some of your earning with the orphanage. They need it more than me.*
"He is an orphan?" Long Shen frowned. He didn\'t expect Bai Yunyu to be just like him, an orphan raised in an orphanage until he reached adulthood.
But he was very handsome, so it didn\'t take long for him to get scouted and cast as a movie star. And he was also a talented, hard worker. He\'d rather work as hard as he could rather than returning to the street again, the place where he lived after being abandoned when he was five years old by his parents.
\'If not because of the orphanage, I\'d have died…\' Long Shen thought. But Bai Yunyu was not as lucky as him. Bai Yunyu had that horrible scar on his face and that big mole. He was ugly, and Long Shen wouldn\'t deny that.
\'Living in an orphanage… and then leaving the orphanage to get a job. I know that he works so hard because he is the only assistant that fulfils all my request almost flawlessly. But I didn\'t expect him to actually got so ill until he fainted like that.\'
\'Am I too harsh on him?\'
Long Shen continued pondering, as he wasn\'t sure if it was his fault that Yunyu became like this. He just put on the same pressure to all his past assistants. It was just Bai Yunyu who took everything as long as he didn\'t get fired.
And after reading all these, Long Shen decided to give Yunyu one more chance. He wouldn\'t fire him today, knowing that Yunyu didn\'t have anywhere else to go, and looking at his appearance, Long Shen doubt that Yunyu would get another job.
\'I will pity him, just once.\'
[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 10%. I can\'t believe Long Shen fell to such a child trick.]
[Hehe, I know my Guilt Tripping no Jutsu will always work!]
Bai Yunyu was faking it the whole time. But he was believable enough for the medical staff to rush him to the hospital immediately.
[Pupa: They are not scared that you died. They are scared that Long Shen will file a complaint if you die because Long Shen has some money invested in this private hospital with expensive rooms.]
The doctor checked on Bai Yunyu, and not long after, Long Shen arrived at the hospital. He asked the doctor about Bai Yunyu\'s condition. "Is he alright?"
The doctor frowned and glanced at Long Shen, "Sir, what is your relation with him?"
"I\'m his boss," Long Shen replied curtly.
[So straightforward. He can just say that I\'m his boyfriend or wife.]
[Pupa: Don\'t peek! The doctor is looking at you. She might notice that you\'ve been faking it the whole time!]
The doctor glanced at Bai Yunyu, who was still lying weakly on the hospital bed. She sighed and wrote something down, "Sir, I think you shouldn\'t push your employee too far. This man has been eating nothing but instant ramen and junk food, probably because he is too busy. He also had a bad fever due to exhaustion. Did he also faint before this? His body is so weak. Fortunately, you found him in time, or he might die for real."
Long Shen didn\'t expect that it was life-threatening for Bai Yunyu. He glanced at the man on the hospital bed. Yunyu indeed looked thin and brittle, and it made Long Shen pitied him a bit. At least, because they were both orphans, it made him realized that he was the lucky one among so many orphans after they got older.
"Give him the VIP ward. I will pay for it. It\'s my fault after all," Long Shen said.
[See? It works! My guilt tripping no Jutsu works!]
[Hehe, you will see Long Shen kneeling in front of me with a ring on my finger soon!]
[Pupa: I have no comment. But remember not to jinx yourself. You did that often.]
