Na Jun stared at Lu Zong, a playful smile playing on his lips. "Lu Zong, we've worked together for so many years, we know each other well. You know what kind of person I am.
I'm not the type who says one thing to your face and another behind your back, a smooth-talking hypocrite. I'm also not the kind of person who likes to listen to gossip and slander my colleagues.
How could I possibly take a day off to sleep at home at such a crucial time?
Lu Zong, don't worry, even if I work myself to death, even if I die suddenly, I'll die at the company, I will never die at home..."
Lu Zong was so taken aback by Na Jun's words that he almost had a heart attack. He was inwardly annoyed: When did Na Jun become so sharp-tongued?
But Lu Zong knew Na Jun was confronting him, scolding him, yet he couldn't fight back.
Because if he got angry, wouldn't that confirm he was the smooth-talking hypocrite, the one who says one thing to your face and another behind your back?
Wouldn't it confirm he was the one who listens to gossip and slanders his colleagues?
And Na Jun's last words were quite frightening.
At that moment, countless negative emotions surged in Lu Zong's heart!
The system then prompted: "Ding dong! Received 666 points of negative emotion from Lu Zong!
Ding dong! Received 777 points of negative emotion from Lu Zong!
Ding dong! Received 888 points of negative emotion from Lu Zong!
Now the negative emotion has accumulated over 2000 points, the host can plunder two positive attributes!"
Without hesitation, Na Jun first had the system plunder Lu Zong's "Greenhorn Performance"!
Then, he discovered that Lu Zong had another positive attribute - Greenhorn Upward Management!
This upward management, in fact, was just the current company's euphemism for the act of flattering superiors and brown-nosing.
Na Jun hesitated for a moment, should he grab this Greenhorn Upward Management attribute?
At that moment, the system prompted: "Host, when you bind this system, it means that you must work at this company until all your attributes are upgraded to the top, you cannot resign.
Otherwise, how can you fish for time, how can you lie flat and slack off?
Of course, the host needn't worry, because the system's protection ensures that no matter how you fish for time, lie flat, or slack off, you won't be fired.
Friendly reminder, when the host possesses the ability of 'Upward Management', and continues to get promoted and raise their salary, they will have even more space to fish for time, lie flat, and slack off..."
Na Jun suddenly remembered his brother, Na Wei.
When Na Wei was the deputy general manager of that medical beauty equipment company, he would close the door of the deputy general manager's office and often lie down to sleep or play games, far more space to lie flat, slack off, and fish for time than the frontline employees.
After Na Jun figured it out, he immediately seized the Greenhorn Upward Management attribute.
When he obtained the "Greenhorn Upward Management" attribute, he immediately had a revelation, realizing that there were tricks to handling relationships with superiors.
Otherwise, working your butt off but not understanding "Upward Management" would make it difficult to get promoted and raise your salary.
After Na Jun obtained "Greenhorn Performance" and "Greenhorn Upward Management", he had a sudden realization, understanding how to communicate with his superiors and how to fight for time to fish for time.
Na Jun pulled Lu Zong aside to a quiet place.
"Lu Zong, I wasn't sleeping, I passed out.
At that moment, I felt my heart beating very fast, I felt dizzy and lightheaded, and I couldn't breathe.
I was one step away from working myself to death..."
Na Jun described all his feelings before he died suddenly in 2024.
Lu Zong was scared pale.
Any boss hopes that their employees can work tirelessly, but they don't want them to die for their work.
After all, if this sudden death were to become a big deal, it would have a bad influence.
Na Jun's "Greenhorn Performance" attribute allowed him to act out his near-death experience convincingly, at least making Lu Zong believe it.
Lu Zong immediately grabbed Na Jun, saying with concern, "Na Jun, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. Go to the hospital for a checkup right now and get some rest. I'll grant you leave, you can rest for as long as you need, until you're fully recovered before returning to work..."
Na Jun pretended to be grateful, "Thank you, Lu Zong, for your understanding. If I were able, I would never abandon my work like this. But I'm really afraid of dying at the company, unable to continue working for the company, and instead causing trouble for the company..."
Lu Zong quickly ushered Na Jun out of the office, earnestly advising, "Na Jun, take good care of yourself, you must rest well. Don't work so hard in the future, you're already in your thirties..."
Na Jun easily obtained the opportunity to fish for time and left the company with a swagger.
The moment Na Jun stepped out of the company building, he already had a plan.
He hurried to the parking lot, opened the car door, started the engine, and sped towards the hospital.
To feel comfortable fishing for time, lying flat, and slacking off, he needed to get a doctor's note.
At the hospital, Na Jun sat across from the doctor and began his performance.
He took a deep breath, a hint of pain on his face, and began to talk about his condition.
"Doctor, I feel really unwell.
I had a near-death experience before, that feeling was truly terrifying.
Now I often feel chest tightness, palpitations..."
Na Jun's words were very convincing, because he had indeed experienced it.
The doctor, listening to Na Jun's description, furrowed his brow.
He knew the true cause of overwork and sudden death was sometimes elusive, and the patient's subjective feelings could often provide important clues.
"Your symptoms do sound a bit serious."
The doctor pondered for a moment, then said, "I suggest you have a comprehensive checkup, we may need to have a deeper understanding of your physical condition."
"Okay, doctor."
Na Jun nodded, but in his heart he was figuring out how to make his condition seem more serious.
After a series of tests, the doctor looked at the report in his hand, his face filled with a serious expression.
"Your EKG does show some abnormalities, I suggest you stay in the hospital for observation for a few days."
Na Jun was secretly delighted, but on the surface, he pretended to be worried.
"Ah, hospitalization? But I have a lot of work to do, can I not be hospitalized?"
"Work is important, but health is the foundation of revolution."
The doctor persuaded, "I suggest you stay in the hospital for observation for a few days to ensure that there are no problems before you are discharged."
"But I really can't be hospitalized." Na Jun insisted, "Doctor, can you prescribe some medicine, I can just rest at home for a few days."
The doctor looked at Na Jun, silent for a moment.
"Alright, since you insist on not being hospitalized, then I'll prescribe some medicine for you, but you must ensure that you take your medicine on time and rest."
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Na Jun took the prescription, secretly overjoyed.
His plan had succeeded, he now had a medical note, allowing him to comfortably fish for time, lie flat, and slack off.
"Remember, don't stay up late," the doctor finally advised.
"Okay, I'll pay attention."
Na Jun answered with a smile, already planning his upcoming leisure time.
After leaving the hospital, Na Jun called his girlfriend, Li Xiao Yue.
Before Na Jun could speak, Li Xiao Yue said with a tinge of resentment in her voice over the phone: "What kind of boyfriend are you? It's been a month since we last saw each other!"
Na Jun felt very uncomfortable. Li Xiao Yue was truly a rare good girlfriend: not materialistic, not vain, pure and clean, and also so beautiful, so loving towards him.
The key was that their intimacy was also very compatible.
Na Jun had dated several girlfriends before, but only when he was with Li Xiao Yue was it most harmonious.
Looking at Li Xiao Yue's delicate, small face in the video, recalling her snow-white, exquisite body,
Na Jun felt a surge of excitement at that moment and immediately said to Li Xiao Yue, "I promise you, I'll accompany you every day from now on."
