OFR – Chapter 179 Recruitment.

The night passed without incident.

By the time Mu Bai woke up, it was already morning.

After getting up, he went to the exclusive dining hall in the Xuanwu Zhongshan villa district and enjoyed a lavish breakfast.

Although he ate quite a bit, his appetite had only slightly increased—not to an abnormal degree. This reassured him that his enhanced physique wouldn’t lead to excessive food consumption, a concern he had after his recent physical transformation.

After breakfast, instead of returning to his villa, Mu Bai casually opened his browser and logged into Black Sky Net.

He remembered that today was the scheduled interview for a personal assistant, which he had arranged with the Dragon Hunter Shop in the black market.

A personal assistant—something he truly needed now.

Especially after moving into the Xuanwu Zhongshan villa.

Back in Inkwood Residence, where his house was small, he could easily clean it himself if it got dirty.

But now, living in a four-story villa covering hundreds of square meters, cleaning it all by himself would be a major waste of time.

So, hiring a personal assistant was definitely necessary.

Upon logging into Black Sky Net, the usual welcome screen and his profile panel appeared.

After briefly scanning his profile, Mu Bai clicked into his saved shops and switched to Dragon Hunter HR Shop.

There, he checked his chat history with the shopkeeper and saw that the interview details had already been sent.

Shopkeeper:
“Hello, my friend. The five highly competent and well-mannered women you requested for the personal assistant position have been arranged for today’s interview. The interview is set for 10 AM at the same location we previously discussed—Room 5, 2nd Floor of the Guesthouse. If you find a suitable candidate, you can finalize the salary and hire her immediately. If you’re not satisfied, let me know, and I’ll arrange another batch for you.”

Mu Bai glanced at the message and casually replied with a simple “Hmm.”

Then, checking his phone, he saw it was already 9 AM—only an hour left until the interview.

Without wasting any more time, he left the dining hall, got into his car, and drove towards the Guesthouse.

The roar of the Bugatti engine echoed along the road.

10 Minutes Later – Guesthouse, Room 5

Seated by the window, Mu Bai sipped on a cup of coffee, quietly waiting for the candidates to arrive.

At 9:50 AM, the sound of high heels clicking against the floor echoed outside the room, followed by a knock on the door.

“Come in.”

Mu Bai spoke in a calm voice.

As soon as his words landed, the door opened, and five women walked in.

They were between 23 to 28 years old.

Their looks and figures were all at least an 8/10, placing them in the same league as Wang Yuwei and Xu Jinhuan—stunning beauties.

This slightly surprised Mu Bai.

After all, in this era where men outnumbered women, such beautiful and capable women were a rare commodity.

The fact that Dragon Hunter HR Shop could easily produce five high-quality candidates only proved how powerful they were in the black market.

After a brief moment of thought, Mu Bai stood up, smiling.

“Hello, I’m the one hiring a personal assistant. Please, have a seat.”

“Ah, okay, thank you.”

The five women hesitated for a brief moment.

But thanks to their professional training, their surprise only lasted a second or two before they quickly smiled and politely responded.

Clearly, they were shocked by Mu Bai’s young age.

After all, this interview had been arranged directly by the company president, and they were told the client was extremely important.

They never expected that this highly important client would be so young.

“Alright, let’s go from left to right—please introduce yourselves one by one.”

Mu Bai had keenly noticed their subtle expressions of surprise, but he didn’t mind.

He simply gestured for them to begin their introductions.

The first woman, a delicate-looking girl, smiled sweetly and spoke:

“Hello, sir. My name is Li Xiaoqing. I’m 26 years old, a graduate of Fudan University, majoring in—”

As she spoke, Mu Bai quietly activated his scan ability, secretly analyzing their attributes.

Ding! [Li Xiaoqing’s Attributes Displayed]
Ding! [Bai Xiaoduo’s Attributes Displayed]
Ding!

Soon, all five women’s profiles appeared before his eyes.

After glancing through them, Mu Bai confirmed that, as expected, they were all highly skilled professionals with zero threat levels.

However, their trust level and intimacy level were pitifully low—which was natural, given that they had just met.

“Should I just pick one from them?”

Mu Bai pondered in his mind.

But just as he was considering his options, his phone suddenly pinged with a QQ notification, interrupting his thoughts.

Opening QQ, he saw that it was from Mu Xiaoxiao.

Mu Xiaoxiao:
“Mu Bai, where are you? I’m coming to find you! I got a day off from work, and we haven’t seen each other in so long!”

Mu Bai blinked.

It had been years since he last saw Mu Xiaoxiao.

He still remembered—back when he hadn’t moved to Nanjing, Mu Xiaoxiao would often send him the same message:

“Mu Bai, where are you? I’m coming to find you!”

Now, suddenly, two or three years had passed.

Without overthinking it, he quickly replied:

“I’m a bit busy right now. How about I come find you later?”

A moment later, her reply popped up.

Mu Xiaoxiao:
“Later? Hmph! Heartless Mu Bai! It’s been years, and you don’t even miss me a little? Have you already forgotten who always played with you in elementary school? Who brought you candy every day? Tell me—have you been flirting with some girl in Nanjing? 😭😭😭 I spent all these years raising you, and now some random girl is trying to steal you away? No way! I demand to see you right now!”

“…”

Looking at the familiar and endearing rant, a smile unknowingly crept onto Mu Bai’s lips.
