Chapter 262 I want Lin Feng to kiss me!
Tang Xiaofu raised her wrist to check her watch; the fifteen-minute time limit had expired.
She glanced at the crowd in the square. There were fifty people when she counted them in the morning, but now there were only forty-four bewildered or trying-to-remain calm faces standing there.
Six fewer people.
The fate of the six who did not arrive is self-evident—they have already been eliminated.
Tang Xiaofu coughed lightly, her clear voice echoing in the night:
"The reason I've gathered everyone here is quite simple."
"In order to better coordinate work and allocate tasks in the future, everyone needs to truthfully write down their profession and skills."
"Based on this, the park will reassess and optimize its subsequent work arrangements."
As soon as he finished speaking, a suppressed murmur immediately arose from the audience.
"Isn't there that 'Mouth of Contracts'?" a voice whispered. "Why do we have to do the statistics again?"
Someone nearby immediately whispered, "You forgot? The headmaster mentioned before that the 'Mouth of the Contract' is only used during the initial allocation. This is probably to prepare for more in-depth work later."
From another murmur, a slightly more optimistic tone came: "I think it's a good thing. If you can do what you're good at, your chances of survival will be much higher, right?"
Amid the murmurs, Tang Xiaofu slightly turned her head, and two female staff members in dark uniforms with serious expressions immediately stepped down the steps behind her.
They each held a beige hard-shell folder, inside which was a form.
The table header is concise and consists of three columns: Name, Occupation, and Areas of Expertise (which may include relevant skills or traits).
Without saying a word, the two opened their folders and handed them to the chosen one, starting from the left and right sides of the crowd respectively.
The first person in the line on the left was a tall, thin young man wearing black-rimmed glasses.
He picked up his pen and wrote "Eric Sorenson" in the name column, "High School Physics Teacher" in the occupation column, and neatly wrote in the skills column: "Theoretical explanation, circuit basics, simple mechanical repair".
At the head of the line on the right was an Asian woman with a low ponytail and a slightly tense expression.
She was wearing a dark tracksuit that allowed for easy movement, and her fingers were steady when she picked up the pen.
She wrote "Chen Xueli" as her occupation, "clinical nurse" as her area of expertise, and "emergency care and intravenous injection" as her areas of expertise.
As the pen continued to scratch across the paper, the form gradually filled with all sorts of information:
Software engineer, chef, auto mechanic, veteran reconnaissance soldier, former firefighter, freelance writer, gardener, accountant, amateur radio enthusiast...
A diverse array of professions and skills intertwine here, sketching a miniature cross-section of human society.
Soon, the whispers subsided, and everyone finished filling out the forms.
The two staff members closed the folder again, turned around and walked back to Tang Xiaofu, handing it over with both hands.
Tang Xiaofu took the papers, flipped through them one by one, and examined them carefully. Her face showed no emotion, except that her slender fingers occasionally tapped the edge of the pages lightly.
Until one column, her pupils brightened slightly.
She calmly finished browsing the remaining content, then closed the folder with a "click".
She raised her eyes and her gaze fell once more on the throng of people below the stage:
"Excuse me, which one of you is Ms. Elena?"
A woman around 45 years old, wearing a beige knitted cardigan and casual trousers, raised her hand.
She possessed a gentle demeanor, yet a barely perceptible hint of panic lurked in her eyes: "I am Elena."
Tang Xiaofu nodded slightly: "Are you a PhD in psychology and a licensed psychologist?"
"Yes," Elena nodded in confirmation.
"Alright, Dr. Elena, please stay a moment." Tang Xiaofu turned to the crowd. "The rest of you may go back now."
The chosen ones, as if granted a pardon, quickly dispersed, and the square soon became empty.
Tang Xiaofu walked down the steps, quickly approached Elena, and began to speak to her in a low voice.
During the conversation, her gaze occasionally drifted to Tang Xiaorui, who was standing quietly watching from the top of the steps.
Dr. Elena followed her gaze, a hint of doubt flashing across her face.
"What's going on with this, sister?" Tang Xiaorui muttered to herself, looking at the two people below who were talking in hushed tones.
Lin Feng remained silent.
Before long, Tang Xiaofu led Elena back to the two of them and said calmly:
"I've been having some sleep problems lately, and I'd like to ask Dr. Elena for help in regulating my sleep."
"Huh?" Tang Xiaorui's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Sister, you've made such a big fuss just to treat your own illness? That's... that's really using your position for personal gain!"
"This was Lin Feng's idea," Tang Xiaofu said calmly, "After all, my mental state directly affects the work in the park."
"If his suggestions are effective, they will greatly help the work of the park."
Sure enough, upon hearing that it was Lin Feng's idea, Tang Xiaorui immediately swallowed back all her subsequent complaints, merely pursing her lips without arguing further.
When you like someone, whatever they say is right!
At this moment, Lin Feng seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his gaze to Elena, and asked casually:
"Dr. Elena, are you a hypnotist?"
"Of course, this is one of my areas of expertise," Elena replied confidently.
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng's gaze fell on Tang Xiaorui's face beside him, and he said with a smile:
"Xiaorui, would you like to... try hypnosis?"
Tang Xiaorui immediately curled her lip: "Hypnosis? That sounds incredibly boring."
Seeing this, Tang Xiaofu stepped forward and threw out the bait:
"If you accept this hypnosis challenge, Lin Feng will grant you one request, whatever it may be."
"What?!" Lin Feng turned his head sharply to look at Tang Xiaofu, about to retort, but Tang Xiaofu kicked his calf without him noticing.
It wasn't very forceful, but it carried an undeniable warning.
Lin Feng had no choice but to swallow his words, secretly lamenting his predicament.
Tang Xiaorui's eyes lit up instantly. She immediately moved closer to Lin Feng, tilting her head back, her eyes gleaming with a cunning and daring light.
"Really? Any requests? Then... I want Lin Feng to kiss me, the kind where he sticks out his tongue, is that okay too?"

Studio:
"Xiaorui is awesome! That straight shot caught me completely off guard!"
"Haha, if you like someone, just say it out loud! I love Tang Xiaorui's personality so much!"
"What kind of heavenly treatment is Brother Feng getting? I'm so envious!"
"Ruibao: I want the whole world to know what I like!"
"Being straightforward is so much better, a million times better than all those roundabout ways!"
"Brother Feng may look helpless on the surface, but he's probably secretly overjoyed, isn't he?"
"Vice Principal: For your sister's treatment, would you reluctantly sacrifice your looks for a bit? I'll make it up to you later!"
"Please explain in detail how to supplement it?"
"Feng's inner monologue: If this triggers my second personality, am I even fit to live?!"
"It's alright, Tang Xiaofu is here, she can definitely handle it!"
