Just as Jiang Xiaohan had anticipated, after waking up from her nap, Lin Luoyou was fully revived and back to peak condition.

"Xiao-Han-Zi, let's go get dinner!"

Lin Luoyou poked her head out from under the blanket, turned her entire body toward Jiang Xiaohan, and blinked her eyes continuously.

"Awake?" Jiang Xiaohan turned around, looked her up and down in the light of her desk lamp, and smiled with certainty as she met her bright, energetic gaze. "Looks like you're completely better. Let's go. Once we're back from eating, you still need to tidy up your bed."

Because she had eaten so little at lunch, her appetite at dinner successfully hit a new high.

Watching the small mountain of food piled up in her bowl, Jiang Xiaohan couldn't help but shake her head.

Such a slim person, yet her stomach was by no means small. She wondered where on earth all the food she ate every day actually went.

For the next period of time, Lin Luoyou seemed to have returned to the rhythm of life she had before she met Qin Shishen. On weekends when she had nothing to do, she would hole up in the dormitory; on weekdays, it was a straightforward two-point line between the dorm and the company.

Every time she passed by the coffee shop after getting off work, Lin Luoyou would still ache with longing for Kewei. But then she remembered that she hadn't even received her first month's salary yet, so how could she possibly afford to go buy specialty drinks and pet cats every day?

Although she had tried freelancing for free before, it didn't feel quite right after all—they weren't close enough for that yet.

Thinking of this, she had no choice but to keep walking, pretending to turn a blind eye to the yearning in her heart.

Coupled with having to cope with the inexplicable hostility from Cheng Li at work, Lin Luoyou truly had no spare energy to care about anything else. Whenever she had free time at night, she only wanted to seize the moment and patch up her shortcomings in programming.

Following Cheng Li's unilateral declaration of war, Lin Luoyou found that her room for maneuver and impact in the data support role was shrinking day by day.

Previously, she had simply relied on a faster completion speed to take on more task requests. But this week, Cheng Li had begun brazenly "poaching business." Even when Lin Luoyou had taken over a dataset first, Cheng Li would always find all sorts of excuses to intercept it midway.

Everyone had certain reservations about her somewhat eager and utilitarian behavior, but considering her fast output speed and high accuracy, no one said anything.

As for Qian Bin, he was fast enough. On the very night the two of them added each other as friends, he pulled her into the volunteer group chat for "Half for You."

Once inside the group, however, Lin Luoyou realized how truly tiny their organization was.

Counting the founder Qian Bin, there were originally only five people in it.

It was only after checking everyone's group nicknames that Lin Luoyou discovered Qin Shishen was actually a partner of "Half for You."

No wonder he could so casually get the upstairs key from Qian Bin and freely enter and exit the cat shelter.

Yet, to her regret, before Lin Luoyou even had time to properly care for the rescued kittens and meet the other volunteers, the Double Eleven shopping festival arrived first.

At the mobilization meeting prior to the mega-sale, a single sentence from Wang Shi gave them a crystal-clear understanding of the impending workload:

"I'm sure everyone already got a taste of it during the pre-sale period. It can be summed up in one word: 'Busy.' Well, in two more days, it will be November 11th. Once the official festival kicks off, you'll realize that what you experienced over the past few weeks is nothing at all. I hope everyone rallies their spirit. Once we win this battle, I'm treating everyone to a grand feast!"

Spurred on by that final remark, the enthusiasm of everyone in E-commerce Operations Group Two was instantly ignited. Getting him to willingly reach into his own pocket for a treat was truly a rare sight!

After Wang Shi finished his mobilization speech, it was Chen Xujia's turn to speak. Her remarks were concise, mainly outlining the responsible parties for various tasks.

She had complete confidence in both Cheng Li and Lin Luoyou, believing they were fully capable of standing on their own feet.

As for the entire team's only ticking time bomb, that was the thorny intern, Zhao Mian.
