    He looked around casually, this was his workstation, surrounded by his busy colleagues, and there was a sign hanging at the gate not far away, which read: 07 World Department of Humanity.

    Oh, by the way, he passed the administrator exam not long ago and was assigned to this department. He is still an intern for the time being.

    The minister patted him and greeted him: "Come on, it's time for lunch break, let's go to the cafeteria to eat."

    Shi Wang stretched his waist, yawned sleepily, stood up and walked out with the minister.

    The minister conscientiously cared about his subordinates: "You have been here for a week, how do you feel, is your work going well? How are you getting along with your colleagues?"

    Shi Wang nodded, "It's not bad, everyone is fine."

    The minister smiled, "That's good, our department is not particularly busy, and we can touch fish when we are tired from work, but recently that adult is in the company, so don't sleep directly at work, in case you are caughtIt will be troublesome to patrol and see.”

    Shi Wang felt a little apologetic, "I was really sorry just now, I slept late last night and was too sleepy in the morning."

    "It's okay, it's okay." The minister enthusiastically taught the newcomers his secrets of fishing, "You can support your face with your left hand, hold a pen with your right hand, and put a notebook on the table, so that it will not be easy to be found when you sleep haha."

    Shi Wang smiled awkwardly, "Taught..."

    ...The minister took the lead in fishing, is there any hope for this department?

    The company cafeteria is on the sixth floor. It is spacious and clean, brightly lit, and has a wide variety of dishes. You can also order meals in advance. The chef’s craftsmanship is comparable to that of a five-star restaurant.A stumbling block on the road.

    Shi Wang asked for an eel rice, sat on a chair and opened his chopsticks to eat, when suddenly a figure appeared in front of him.

    The secretary in a dark blue suit with dark patterns looked down at him, and said politely: "Mr. Shi, sir, please go over."

    Shi Wang was stunned for a moment, and a certain beauty's Q group suddenly appeared in his mind: three ② 8 ⑨ 528 ⑤ 7 faces.

    In the God Realm, there are a total of seven administrator buildings like this, and each building has a general manager who has the power to handle 99% of the official affairs.So at this time, Shi Wang only thought that the man who was too handsome was the president of the company, and he didn't think deeply about why his subordinates would respectfully call him an adult.

    On the day of joining the company, he fell in love with the beauty at first sight at the entrance of the company (feeling attracted to her), but the difference in their identities is too great, and Shi Wang hardly had any contact with her.

    He couldn't think of the reason why Rong Yu suddenly invited him over at this moment.

    Shi Wang looked up at the secretary blankly, then seemed to realize something suddenly, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

    He panicked, stammering and explaining indiscriminately: "Well, I didn't sleep during working hours on purpose this morning, I was really sleepy...don't fire me!"

    The secretary raised his hand and coughed lightly, "I don't think that's the reason, please come with me first."

    Five minutes later, Shi Wang nervously followed the secretary to the VIP elevator and arrived at the CEO's office on the top floor.

    This entire floor is almost his office, no, it is more like a complete one-storey villa than an office space.Whether it is a living room, study room, dining room, gym, indoor swimming pool, or greenhouse, everything is available.

    There is even a huge ecological fish tank inlaid on one side of the living room wall. Every fish in it is very beautiful, and the bright and shiny scales are shining with the light of money. The daily maintenance cost is even more expensive for ordinary people.An incredible number.

    And this is just for Rong Yu's occasional casual glance at this level of appreciation.

    Shi Wang, as a small intern whose savings were infinitely close to zero, was really surprised by this gorgeous house.

    The secretary took him into the study, poured him a cup of tea, and said: "The lord is still in the meeting for the time being, please wait for fifteen minutes."

    "Oh, good."

    Shi Wang sat on the chair a little cramped. After the secretary left, he relaxed a little, and began to look left and right, looking at the surrounding decorations.

    The decoration of the study room is very plain, Shi Wang saw an oil painting hanging on the wall not far away, it seemed to be a person standing among flowers.

    However, the upper part of the painting was covered by the hanging silk cloth, and the man's face could not be seen.

    Although Shi Wang had been a photographer for a year, he had no interest in oil painting, so he turned his head to look at Rong Yu's desk.

    There are several blooming white roses on the corner of the table, inserted in an exquisite vase, the color of the vase is very special, it should be fired by some very ancient and complicated craft.

    When Shi Wang was young, he owed his hand, so he picked it up boldly and looked at it.When he saw the inscription on the bottom of the bottle, he trembled with fright. He hurriedly and carefully put it back in its original place, and even put it inside, for fear of accidentally dropping this precious antique.

    After letting go of the bottle, he picked up the pen on the table again, took off the cap and wrote and drew in the palm of his hand.

    This pen is very heavy and feels good to the touch, Shi Wang couldn't help playing with it for a while.

    An accident happened at this moment, Shi Wang didn't know where it was pressed, a string of jet-black ink suddenly sprayed out from the tip of the pen, splashed onto the oil painting not far away with a swish, and instantly exploded a large swath of ink dots.

    Shi Wang: "!!!"

    He was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he stood up abruptly to make amends, but just as he took a step forward, his elbow accidentally touched the vase on the table, and his pupils suddenly constricted.

    Then……

    boom!Snapped!

    Shi Wang watched helplessly as the vase hit the floor and fell to pieces, the priceless treasure suddenly turned into waste.

    He was stunned for a full minute before he sat down on the floor with limp legs, his face ashen.

    "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, I may be laid off today..."

    One hundred and three is only three hundred and sixty-five years

    "Mr. Shi?!"

    The door of the study was pushed open, and the secretary appeared at the door panting, and asked anxiously, "Are you okay? What happened to that voice just now?"

    Then he saw ceramic shards all over the floor and oil paintings stained with ink on the walls.

    secretary:"……"

    Shi Wang raised his head tremblingly to look at him, swallowed nervously, and said with difficulty: "Tell me first, how much will I have to pay?"

    The secretary calmed down his breathing, calmly took out his phone, tapped it a few times, and then calmly told Shi Wang: "A conservative estimate is 35 million."

    Shi Wang: "???"

    He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice, "Just these two things, so expensive?!"

    The secretary looked at him sympathetically, "Sorry, sir, I didn't make it clear. It's the same thing. This vase was bought at an auction the year before last, and the transaction price was 35 million. I can't estimate the value of that oil painting.".”

    Shi Wang suddenly felt dark in front of his eyes and couldn't breathe. He sat on the cold floor and felt that his only way out was to pick up a sharp porcelain piece to apologize for his death...

    …Ten minutes later, Rong Yu sat calmly on the large desk, leaning against the back of the chair, looking at the mess on the ground, and sighed with regret: "This is really tragic, from a certain point of viewSaid that you are also very capable."

    "Yes, I'm sorry..."

    Shi Wang didn't even dare to sit down. He didn't kneel down on the spot, which was considered a hard bone for his newcomer to society.He stood aside awkwardly, with his head lowered, his fingers clutching the corners of his clothes, his fingertips turned white, "I will... try to make amends."

    "Let me see, I won't pursue this painting, as for this vase..."

    Rong Yu smiled slightly, "It's also very simple. With your current salary, you can pay it back after working for 365 years without eating or drinking."

    Shi Wang was about to cry, three hundred and sixty-five years, this is not three hundred and sixty-five days, could it be that he worked so hard to pass the exam and obtained this immortal body just to pay off his debts by working for nothing?

    With a dry throat, he mustered up the courage to look up at Rong Yu, "Do you think this is okay? From now on, I will set aside two-thirds of my salary every month to pay back the debt until it is paid off."

    Rong Yu thought for a while, "One-third of your salary is less than three thousand, and your current residence is still a rented apartment, right? In this way, life won't be very hard?"

    Shi Wang thought to himself that this was forced by you, even though the root cause was that he owed his hand and didn't take care of his own hand...

    Seeing that Shi Wang's face turned blue and white, and the corners of his eyes were red. If he continued to persecute him, he might really make him cry. Rong Yu eased his tone in a timely manner, "However, I have a better way to compensate."

    Shi Wang raised his head in surprise, Rong Yu looked at him playfully, a teasing smile appeared on his handsome face, "Do you want to hear it?"

    ...

    The dream ended here, Shi Wang didn't open his eyes, lying on the bed in a confused state, trying to recall exactly what kind of compensation plan Rong Yu proposed back then.

    But no matter what he thought, he couldn't find any clues in the dilapidated memory.Maybe it was because the compensation method was too terrible, it would leave indelible psychological trauma, so that Shi Wang's brain automatically blocked it for safety.

    But that's not important, what's important is that Shi Wang had already had a relationship with that oil painting when he first joined the job.

    The dream inspired his memory, so Shi Wang was sure that what he dreamed just now had happened in the past.Even though the painting was covered with cloth, Shi Wang still recognized the flowers and clothes in the lower part, it was definitely "Muse of the Flower Field".

    Shi Wang roughly sorted out the relationship between himself and Rong Yu. He met Rong Yu when he was very young, but he should have no contact with Rong Yu when he grew up, so the day he joined the job was the first time Shi Wang met Rong Yu as an adult.How could he be the main character in the oil painting!

    Shi Wang sat up with a gloomy face, picked up his phone and left the bedroom.

    The other two people in the room were still sleeping, as if they didn't notice the slight footsteps and the sound of the door opening.

    A minute later, Yan Ting took out his mobile phone in the dark, closed his eyes lazily, unlocked the screen with his thumb, and blindly sent a text message: "He passed by."

    Then Yan Ting casually threw the phone aside and continued to sleep.

    The corridor of the castle at night was very dark. Shi Wang leaned on the wall with his left hand and groped forward. He cautiously dialed Qi Zhe's phone number, and the connection was quickly connected there.As expected, there is no sleep over there.

    After a brief conversation, Shi Wang knew that they were lurking in the nearby woods, observing the situation of the castle from the outside.They had to figure out the route and the guard situation inside before taking action. After all, there were two criteria for judging the successful theft of the oil painting. One, get the oil painting, and two, escape the castle alive.

    Shi Wang lowered his voice and said, "I'll go and take a look for you first. The real oil painting may be in the vault, and the one outside is fake."

    "Okay." Qi Zhe paused, and added, "Be careful in everything."

    Shi Wang hung up the phone and continued walking forward.

    He didn't know the location of the vault, but based on his previous experience playing games, it should be underground.

    Shi Wang walked to the stairs in the dark, the surrounding was dead silent, Shi Wang could even hear his own breathing clearly.The environment was very dark, and there was a dim yellow light on the opposite wall, like a firefly, the light was only enough to illuminate the range of a few meters around, and the long steps under the feet were hidden in the vague darkness.

    The night air was very cold, Shi Wang held on to the marble handrail next to him, and immediately felt a chill rushing up from his fingertips.

    He collected himself and was about to go down when suddenly a faint old voice appeared behind him like an ancient ghost, "Guest, what are you going to do?"

    His heart beat wildly, Shi Wang's back felt terrified, and the hairs on his arms stood on end.

    His body froze for five seconds before Shi Wang managed to calm down, turned around and smiled at the housekeeper, "Sorry, I want to see that painting, think about it, I'm a policeman, if even IIf you don’t know where the paintings are, how can you prevent thieves?”

    The butler looked at him inquiringly. The old man's shrewd and experienced eyes were as sharp as a griffin's, as if he could see through all lies.

    The clothes on the back of Shi Wang were already soaked in cold sweat, he subconsciously put his hands behind his back and held the gun.Darkness covered him, hiding this small but dangerous maneuver.

    Fortunately, the steward didn't question him again, "I understand, please allow me to ask His Excellency the Duke first."

    Shi Wang was taken to a waiting room by him, and the maid brought a cup of hot tea and a plate of snacks.

    Shi Wang looked at her white lace skirt and guessed in his heart that since there are maids here, there may also be guards. It seems that Qi Zhe and the others should not only be careful of the "police", but also those guards that come with the game.

    He sat on the sofa with a heavy heart, took a sip from the teacup, and warmed up his stiff and cold hands and feet.

    After he ate two butter biscuits, Rong Yu came over slowly, and gently persuaded him: "Aren't you up so late? If you want to see a painting, you can do it tomorrow. Staying up late is not good for your health."

    "I want to see it now." Shi Wang stared at him without giving in, when he met Shang Rong Yu's gentle eyes, he couldn't help but think of that painting, and his heart was stung.

    He immediately looked away, turned his head to find a reason for himself bluntly, "The thieves may start to act soon, I need to investigate the scene in advance."

    Rong Yu didn't make things difficult for him, he smiled, "In that case, come with me."

    He was so easy to talk, but Shi Wang felt that something was wrong, he stood up, followed Rong Yu vigilantly, and left the room.

    In the end, he saw the real oil painting in the heavily guarded vault. Perhaps it was due to the surrounding atmosphere. When the warm yellow light fell on the canvas, Shi Wang always felt that the youth in the painting became more and more real.It seemed that there was a mirror embedded in the golden picture frame, and the other self looked back at him ignorantly, with a look that traveled through the ages.

    Shi Wang stared blankly at the painting, as if his soul had been absorbed by it, then he suddenly realized something, took the phone to light up the light, and moved closer to observe the canvas.

    The butler next to him moved, as if he felt that it was not appropriate to use a flash to illuminate such a precious ancient collection.

    Rong Yu waved his hand, signaling to leave him alone.

    Shi Wang stood on the oil painting for a full ten minutes, and finally saw something that he had anticipated but was unwilling to face.

    In this painting, The Muse of the Flower Field, there are imperceptible traces of paint coverage on the canvas. Because the paint used for covering is too old from the original painting, there is a slight color difference.

    Shi Wang probably understood what it was, probably it was the traces of Rong Yu's later repairs after he accidentally splashed ink on the painting.

    The evidence is solid, Shi Wang can no longer deceive himself that it was just a false dream, or a deviation of memory.

    ——The muse in the oil painting is not him, but Rong Yu's real lover.

    After clarifying this point, Shi Wang felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity in his heart, perhaps because he subconsciously rejected sadness and pain, forcing himself to act indifferently.

    He even laughed at himself in his heart, no matter what, Rong Yu was very tolerant to him, he broke the portrait of his white-moonlight/muse, but he was not beaten to death on the spot.

    Compared with those little doubles in the abuse body text who accidentally bumped into the white-moonlight/muse relic, got both legs broken, and was crushed to kneel in front of the tombstone for three days and three nights, his treatment is already very goodup.

    But how did you pay for it in the end?

    Shi Wang finally took a picture of this painting, then turned around to look at Rong Yu, and asked calmly: "I remember when I first joined the company, it seemed that I broke your vase, did I compensate you at that time?"?”

    Rong Yu was a little surprised, "Do you remember what happened so long ago?"

    "Yes... I had a dream and remembered something..."

    Shi Wang deliberately concealed the matter of the painting, and he doesn't want to mention it now.

    Rong Yu smiled, "Well, you have already paid all the compensation at that time, and you don't owe me anything now."

    "I lost it? Such a large amount of money?" Shi Wang asked in surprise, "How did I lose it?"

    Rong Yu seemed to recall what happened that day, a warm smile appeared in his light golden eyes, he pretended to be mysterious, "I think it's best not to say it, you will get angry if you say it."
