A Snake Transmigrated as a Scum A - Chapter 64
On the 63rd day of Li Yingxue’s foundation establishment, Fu Man gradually began to feel the pressure of managing the company entrusted to her by Lord Fu.
Lord Fu finally took action against his fake daughter.
Due to the need to dedicate himself to designing jewelry for the Empress, Lord Fu didn’t have much energy left to manage the company, so he decided to delegate authority to her, allowing her to oversee various departments and some projects within the company.
Fu Man looked at the pile of documents on the large table and felt overwhelmed.
What needs restructuring in the design department, training department, and appraisal department, and what are the developments and prospects for new technologies in precious metal jewelry and inlaid jewelry…
Isn’t this making things difficult for a snake that hasn’t read any modern books?
Although she has abilities beyond science, finding practical knowledge accurately in this vast modern information repository is like finding a needle in a haystack.
Fu Man spent several nights learning how to use the internet.
——It is said that this channel is the fastest way to acquire the knowledge you want.
Li Yingxue came up from the underground palace in the evening and saw Fu Man typing on the computer keyboard with her snake tail.
Why is this woman always using her snake tail to work? Are her hands and feet just for show?
Out of curiosity, she walked over quietly.
As soon as she walked over, she saw Fu Man lounging on the back of the chair, holding a book in her left hand and another book in her right hand.
And Snake Tail is already typing on the keyboard.
Li Yingxue leaned over from her shoulder, glancing at the book in her left hand. Upon seeing its contents, her face turned complex.
The book above is not just any book; it is a guide on how to use the internet on a computer.
For example, the page this woman is looking at teaches her how to turn on the computer, search for questions in the search box, click search, and various answers and suggestions will pop up.
As for the other book, it’s a pinyin tutorial.
Obviously, this woman already knows that Chinese can be typed using the letter symbols on a computer keyboard, specifically through Pinyin.
It looks like she has also learned some pinyin.
The snake tail is typing a few letters, then deleting them again.
After going back and forth a few times, Fu Man seemed to start doubting the two books in her hands.
Li Yingxue glanced at the letters in her search box: ruheguanliyigegongsi
The snake’s tail types very quickly, but every time it types the letter ‘i’, it immediately clicks delete.
Li Yingxue looked at it for a while and figured out why it was deleted.
Because the input method was set to English, this woman didn’t know how to switch to the Chinese input method, so she kept repeating the tutorial and was repeatedly frustrated by not being able to type in Chinese in the search box.
Asking her, a snake, to learn these complex computer languages is truly a challenge for her.
“Li Yingxue, are you making fun of me?”
Fu Man sensed her presence behind her, didn’t even turn her head, and coldly stared at the screen in front of her.
Li Yingxue’s lips curled up, a smile passing through that no one could see, but her expression remained serious and indifferent: “No.”
“You must be quite carefree over there in the Holy Spirit Continent, right?”
Fu Man snorted coldly and asked her, “Why can’t I search it?”
Li Yingxue glanced down at her, but due to the angle, she could only see the woman’s straight nose. Her red lips parted: “Because you haven’t switched to the Chinese input method.”
Fu Man frowned and said, “What is this again?”
Li Yingxue knew that explaining this to her wouldn’t work, so she simply reached out, swatted away her snake tail, placed her hands on the keyboard, and skillfully pressed Shift and Ctrl to switch her to the Chinese input method. The next moment, she remembered that this woman might not know how to use it, so she grabbed the mouse and pointed the cursor at the small input method box on the screen.
It says: “There is a ‘中’ character above, which means the Chinese input method is currently active. Click it, and ‘中’ will change to ‘英’, meaning the English input method. If you want to type using Pinyin, you need to use the Chinese input method.”
Fu Man watched her lean over the table, her body slender and graceful, a cascade of black hair falling to the side.
She gave a slight grunt, “Got it.”
Li Yingxue asked again, “What are you searching for?”
Fu Man finally redirected her attention back to the computer, expressionless, and said, “How to manage a company.”
Li Yingxue’s hand paused for a moment; this question was indeed quite direct and indirectly revealed that Lord Fu had actually entrusted the management of the company to this woman.
Li Yingxue’s fingertips danced lightly, quickly typing out these few words for her. However, as soon as she hit send, the search history popped up below.
She struggled to read those pinyin, roughly meaning:
*How to quickly learn the knowledge needed to manage a company*
*How to quickly learn computers*
She searched for some work-related content, but later, she didn’t know if she got bored, the subsequent searches turned into:
*Why do humans have to work?*
*Why do humans need to establish things like companies?*
*Why are humans so complex?*
Li Yingxue started from the bottom and, as she read, she found it somewhat amusing. However, when her gaze landed on the latest second post, she paused for a moment.
She is searching: *What beautiful snakes are there in this world?*
*What is the most beautiful snake?*
The corners of her mouth slowly fell, and her gaze became extremely indifferent.
Fu Man noticed she hadn’t moved for a long time and couldn’t help but ask, “What are you looking at?”
Li Yingxue clicked “enter” to search for “how to manage a company.”
After the pop-up page appeared, she stood up straight and coldly replied to her, “Didn’t see anything.”
Fu Man didn’t notice. After seeing the page return to normal, she said “Thanks” and began to seriously browse through the answers and suggestions.
Li Yingxue turned around and left with a cold expression.
Fu Man looked for a long time but couldn’t find the answer she wanted. Or rather, this kind of answer was no different from a new subject for her, and she had to learn it from scratch.
It can’t solve the urgent problem at all.
So she changed her search question: *The president is overwhelmed, how to manage the company?*
Now the suggestions that come up are more constructive.
For example, find a proxy president.
Fu Man glanced at the answer and thought it was feasible; isn’t finding a proxy president just making good use of talent?
No problem.
Fu Man closed her computer and lay down on the other side of the bed.
Before going to bed, she asked Li Yingxue, “How was your foundation establishment today?”
This afternoon, when she returned, she took a look at Li Yingxue’s foundation establishment progress in the underground palace. It was quite good, already more than halfway successful, but the key still depended on the last few days.
Li Yingxue’s tone was cold: “It’s okay.”
Fu Man: “That’s good.”
The next day, when Fu Man got up early, she discovered that someone had gone into the simulated ecological room and done some renovations, even placing a brightly colored snake in each glass compartment—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, all sorts of colors.
Fu Man, not understanding the situation, asked A Ci, “Who did this?”
A Ci glanced at her and said, “It was done by Miss Li.”
Fu Man was puzzled: “What is she doing this for?”
Didn’t you used to really hate having snakes in the house?
Fu Man was just about to look for Li Yingxue to ask her something, but unexpectedly, Li Yingxue appeared right behind her.
A Ci quietly withdrew.
Fu Man spoke up, “You’re just in time. What does this mean? Why did you suddenly bring so many snakes home? Isn’t Grandma afraid?”
“To repay you.” Li Yingxue slightly raised her chin, looking at her with little expression.
Fu Man responded with a puzzled “Hmm.”
Li Yingxue’s gaze swept towards the simulated ecological room behind her: “They’re all rare species, beautiful… snakes.”
When it came to the word “beautiful,” Li Yingxue’s gaze burned intensely as she stared at the woman in front of her, containing a mix of sarcasm and an indescribable sentiment.
“Repay me?” Fu Man murmured, suddenly realizing, “Are you feeling guilty for poisoning that batch of snakes back then?”
Before Li Yingxue could speak, Fu Man smiled and said, “Although I was indeed very angry at the time, those snakes do not disappear with the death of their physical bodies; their spirits become a part of mine.”
“You don’t need to feel too guilty.” Fu Man turned around and walked inside, leisurely passing through the aisle between the glass cages on both sides, taking her time to admire the snakes Li Yingxue had found for her.
Li Yingxue saw her walk in, and the words she hadn’t finished digesting were cast aside. With a cold and stern expression, she stepped inside.
Fu Man stopped in front of a glass compartment, looking at the silver hook blue glands on the trunk inside.
“However, you have pretty good taste, and I really like it.”
The glass door reflected Fu Man and Li Yingxue behind her; the former had an appreciative posture, while the latter had her eyelashes lowered, her red lips instantly dimmed.
“As long as you like it.” Li Yingxue raised her eyes again, coldly staring at the blue snake inside, then turned and left.
Fu Man listened to the sound of her high heels leaving, involuntarily turning her head to quietly gaze at her slender figure.
Fu Man continued to work and suggested to the secretary beside Lord Fu to find an proxy president.
The secretary awkwardly explained to her, “Mr. Fu has thought about it, it’s just that…”
Fu Man: “What do you mean by ‘just’?”
Secretary: “It’s just that Mr. Fu delegated power back then and found someone to manage the company, but he ended up taking a big fall and was backstabbed, almost ending up in prison. So, Mr. Fu is only willing to entrust power to someone he can trust, and since you are his daughter, he currently only trusts you.”
Fu Man suddenly understood why Lord Fu would rather entrust such a significant burden to her, an unlearned person, than to a professional.
Because he’s afraid of being betrayed again.
Fu Man actually found this problem easier to solve, “What if I can guarantee that this person will never betray?”
The secretary looked at her with an incredulous expression: “Miss, you must be joking.”
Fu Man knew he wouldn’t understand, so she just instructed him, “You go bring those who are capable of this job to me.”
The secretary hesitated: “This…”
The secretary really found it absurd, “I need to ask Mr. Fu first.”
Fu Man wasn’t in a hurry either, waiting for him to ask. It was completely impossible for her to handle this matter on her own. There was so much specialized knowledge that she couldn’t possibly learn it all. Moreover, she had only been here for about half a year, and she still needed to practice her cultivation. Once Li Yingxue completed her foundation establishment, she definitely wouldn’t be able to stay in this company any longer.
After hearing her thoughts, Lord Fu hurried over: “Fu Man, what’s going on with you? Didn’t you agree to help me manage the company?”
Fu Man bluntly said, “I won’t, but I can help you choose a proxy president who won’t betray the Fu family.”
Lord Fu choked on his frustration, “You’re too naive. Where would you find such a person? No one is ever truly loyal forever.”
He only believes in blood relations; direct kinship is the most reliable and stable relationship.
Fu Man: “Lord Fu, I know what you’re worried about, but I can read people well. I would never harm you.”
Lord Fu still couldn’t take that risk: “What can you do to make me believe you are right?”
Fu Man pondered; she couldn’t reveal that she used unscientific methods, but this proof was indispensable.
After returning, Fu Man asked Li Yingxue how to solve this problem.
“I want Lord Fu to believe in my abilities, but I can’t let him know that I’m using unscientific methods.”
Li Yingxue knew why she had the idea of wanting to be a hands-off boss; it was simply because after she completed her foundation establishment, Fu Man still needed to practice dual cultivation to break through to the God Transformation stage.
She can’t possibly stay here forever.
So it’s unrealistic for her to learn that specialized knowledge from scratch.
Fu Man: “How about proving it to him first, and then erasing his memory?”
Li Yingxue did not agree: “If he loses the memory of you proving your abilities, it means his trust in your abilities will also disappear. Even if he erases the memory, Lord Fu will still dismiss you as the proxy president.”
Fu Man paced back and forth in the room with a headache: “True.”
Li Yingxue watched her figure, pondered for a moment, and said, “I have a plan.”
Fu Man suddenly stopped: “What method?”
“Calling the spell you used to prove your abilities to him a mental power, mental power includes a type of telekinesis called perception, and perception includes spiritual communication and foresight, with foresight being a skill that only powerful Alphas possess.”
Li Yingxue explained calmly: “If you can truly guarantee that the proxy president you find for him will never betray the Fu family, in other words, it would be no different from having foresight. Not only would Lord Fu not doubt you, but he would actually be even happier.”
Fu Man suddenly felt enlightened, gazing at the beautiful Omega in front of her. Her thoughts stirred, and she couldn’t help but step forward to hug her, resting her chin on her shoulder: “Li Yingxue, you’re very smart.”
Li Yingxue was taken aback, allowing her to hug her. Listening to her praise, a faint smile appeared on her red lips, and the morning gloom lifted slightly.
