Chapter 881 - 879: Not Two Hundred?

"Received, currently notifying President Xu by phone."

Feeling more assured now, Zhou Yaling was much less flustered.

Ultimately, the illness of an intern under her management shouldn’t be her concern.

Following Mo Jingchun’s instructions, everyone performed their duties.

Once Xu Pengfei from the president’s office grasped the situation, he hurried to the hospital.

Fortunately, after rescue efforts and a series of examinations, the cancer cells hadn’t spread.

The sudden vomiting of blood resulted from spicy food irritating the affected area.

Unfortunately, White’s diagnosis was correct; the cause was stomach cancer.

The only consolation is that it’s stomach cancer.

Compared to other cancers, the cure rate for stomach cancer is at least much higher.

That afternoon, Xu Pengfei met the intern’s family and school leaders who rushed over.

After brief discussions, the child’s parents decided to take him to a hospital in a big city without hesitation.

Before having a chance to eat, Mo Jingchun finally felt relieved after receiving Xu Pengfei’s phone report.

"How is it?"

Laying down the utensils, Li Xuanyu walked over from the dining room with concern.

"The student’s parents plan to take him to a big city for treatment. Out of humanitarian concerns, the company donated 100,000 and kept the internship opportunity. As long as he’s cured, Candy Technology will welcome him back."

"Parents don’t care about these things." Li Xuanyu shook her head.

In the face of illness and life’s milestones, parents don’t care about those things anymore.

When she was sick, her parents were just the same.

"I hope he’s okay."

"Who doesn’t?"

"Eat, stop thinking about the past."

Rubbing his neck, Mo Jingchun called out, "Zero, let Candy do her homework later, come downstairs and eat first."

"Got it, boss."

Soon, Mo Jingchun heard the sound of someone running.

"Time to eat, time to eat."

Her voice was audible before she was visible.

Raising his head, Mo Jingchun saw Little Grey being the first one running downstairs.

Following closely behind was Candy, dressed in her school uniform.

"Sis-in-law, what’s for dinner?"

"Gastrodia chicken soup."

"Huh? Chicken soup?"

"Yeah, why? I remember you love chicken soup the most."

Just then, Mo Jingchun, who had just sat down, couldn’t help but laugh.

"She drank so much chicken soup that now she doesn’t touch it at all."

Upon hearing this, Li Xuanyu paused and said, "Got it, next time, no chicken soup."

.........

No mention of Candy Technology’s intern incident appeared online.

Even within the company, only a select few people knew about it.

Those who were aware of the truth mostly felt sorry for him.

Perhaps in a few days, people will completely forget about his existence.

And that’s the workplace.

Across the ocean, it’s nighttime in a certain building in N City.

A dozen technical experts looked disheveled, each with dark circles, as if ready to ascend the heavens at any moment.

Since Candy Technology launched the Candy intelligent ERP system, they hadn’t left the server room for two days.

Regardless of brute-force attacks or seeking vulnerabilities to collapse the system from within, they were helpless.

The ERP system was like a flawlessly round iron ball, seamless, with nowhere to begin.

"Boss, give up; we’re at a loss. Perhaps our company should shift to the gaming market, games are the fastest money-making software I know, especially the Eastern Penguin."

"Games?"

He couldn’t deny feeling tempted.

"Notify the board members, a meeting will be held in ten minutes, with those unable to attend participating via video call."

In Huo County in October, the temperature was just right.

A perfect day for an outing.

And the principal of Chengnan Primary School was so daring to spontaneously apply to the authorities for a school-wide autumn excursion.

Seeing the notice posted by the class teacher in the parent group, Mo Jingchun admired the principal’s courage.

Nowadays, society isn’t what it was when he was in primary school. Halting a spring or autumn trip only took a word.

Back then, there were no concerns over parental disagreement.

The only task was ensuring student safety.

Now?

Mo Jingchun shook his head; even a minor injury to a student would lead to a major outcry from the parents.

These days, who wants to bear responsibility?

Undeniably, this principal is very brave.

Mo Jingchun imagined himself in the principal’s position, whether he’d organize spring and autumn excursions for students.

The answer was no.

Because if even one student met with an accident, all his work over half a lifetime would come to a halt.

Is it worth it? Mo Jingchun doesn’t know; everyone values things differently, and since he’s not the principal, who is he to judge?

Seeing no activity in the group for a while, Mo Jingchun shook his head and was the first to reply, "Received."

Then... the group exploded.

Everyone responded with "Received."

"Goodness, everyone was just watching, waiting for someone else to speak first."

The group notifications kept buzzing, evolving from "Received" to various parental inquiries.

Watching the parents in the group ask what to bring, Mo Jingchun patiently observed, waiting for the answers.

He figured a water bottle or cup and some snacks should suffice.

Not like during his primary school years, where meals relied on everyone’s cooperation, the greatest joy being classmates working together to prepare lunch.

Ding dong~

The red "@everyone" notification; Mo Jingchun quickly clicked the screen to prevent the message from jumping up.

"Dear students’ parents, the school cafeteria will provide boxed lunches. Please ensure students bring only a thermos of hot water."

Seeing the lengthy message content, Mo Jingchun’s mouth twitched.

Box lunches!

Alright, he’s outdated, can’t keep up with the times.

Turns out, boxed lunches are indeed the best option now.

Allowing students an autumn excursion means the principal is brave enough.

The principal certainly won’t risk allowing outdoor cooking.

The excursion destination is not far from the county, but past the river is a nature reserve, strictly forbidding fire on the mountain.

Wanting outdoor cooking shows you’re too secure in your job stability and want to try something different.

In the evening, Candy, who ran down from the school bus, shouted excitedly:

"Brother, our class teacher said the whole school is going hiking this Friday for an autumn trip!"

"Oh, I know."

Hearing this, Candy squinted her eyes and rubbed her little hands, gigglingly saying:

"Brother, you should reward us then."

Watching Candy rubbing her fingers, almost a hint, Mo Jingchun pursed his mouth.

"I’ll give you 100 yuan to buy snacks or water, but no more. Besides, Zero will accompany you this Friday."

"Don’t worry, I’ll talk to your teacher in advance."

"No, brother, I mean, shouldn’t Zero and I count as two people? Can’t it be 200?"
