"Sure, please rest assured," the male colleague quickly nodded.
"Good, this task will require about seven hours of effort from you. If you can't finish it on time, you're done for, understand?" Yun Ni said with an extremely natural tone.
It was her first time leading a team.
So she intentionally changed her speaking style.
"You're going to die," such a blunt statement, was changed to "you're done for."
This was to avoid scaring the mortals so as to not affect work progress.
—She really put her heart into it.
The male colleague, invigorated by her dominant yet adorable voice, couldn't help but perk up.
"Don't worry! Leave it to me!"
He said with an uplifted tone.
Yun Ni felt a sense of relief.
Ordinary people are indeed easy to get along with.
Next,
every team member had a discussion with the new team leader.
The new team leader's "you're done for" made everyone's heart flutter.
But after all, everyone was professional.
Once the tasks were distributed, they immediately began to immerse themselves in intense work.
The busy morning, noon, and afternoon slipped through their fingers.
Yun Ni, looking at all the tasks already completed, showed a relieved smile on her face.
Ding!
A message alert sounded from the computer.
A message from the head of the R&D department:
"Shen Xiaoyun, you've led your team well. You really are a technical expert."
"Here's a new task; please take it on and start immediately."
A new work content file appeared on the screen.
Yun Ni clicked to have a look, thought for a while, then stood up and walked out of the office.
Several team members looked towards her.
At this moment, their eyes were filled with admiration.
They had managed to complete the tasks just in time for the end of the working day.
Such computational power.
And another thing—
The new team leader had taken on ninety percent of the content of the entire task by herself!
"I remember that quitting time is at 5:30?"
Yun Ni asked.
"It's supposed to be 5:30, but we usually work overtime until 9 o'clock at night," one team member said.
"9 o'clock? Has it always been like this?" Yun Ni asked.
Everyone nodded together.
"What time do you start in the morning?"
"8:30."
"In that case, you're working all day long."
"Yes, team leader."
Yun Ni was puzzled and after holding back, she still asked:
"Then how do you manage your other affairs?"
"What affairs are you referring to, team leader?" a team member asked.
"—Like going out to travel the world to gain knowledge and experiences; or personal awakening and spiritual cultivation; like taking care of your health and rest, finding hobbies that suit you; and also trying to find companions— I mean, looking for like-minded individuals and someone to spend your life with, it's important."
Yun Ni said all this in one breath.
The office fell into a long silence.
After a while,
The team members still couldn't tell if their team leader was joking or venting through the guise of a joke.
They glanced at each other.
The little girl's way of expression seemed to have a natural generation gap with these middle-aged programmers...
Maybe we're falling behind the times.
"Ha-ha... the team leader has quite a sense of humor. We're too busy with work to have time for those things."
Someone laughed.
"Yeah, focus on making money first; our job is pretty good, and we all work very hard."
"Absolutely, absolutely."
The team members actively brightened the atmosphere.
Yun Ni's face, however, grew uglier. She clenched her fingers, stepped back, and said incredulously,
"You— treat your own lives like this? And think it's all right?"
She turned and rushed into her office, closed the door, and started to look up various situations in this world on the internet.
Outside,
Several team members looked at each other.
An older team member chuckled to smooth things over:
"The team leader is probably just out of college; still full of the poetic and picturesque university days."
Hearing this, everyone began to relax.
"Yeah, you have to work hard to provide for the family, don't you?" another team member said.
"She's probably about ten years too young to understand; don't mind her, she's just too young."
"Absolutely, absolutely."
The people continued talking, and even came to a magnanimous understanding of this technically talented young girl.

Yun Ni reviewed the information in the room and gradually understood how the world operated, as well as most people's lives.
"Ridiculous..."
She was about to do something when a wave of unprecedented tension suddenly rose in her heart.
Heart Demon—
The Heart Demon had matured and was emerging from her body!
What to do?
Beep beep beep!
A prompt appeared on the computer screen:
"Shen Xiaoyun, I've noticed your group hasn't started the work."
"I'm reminding you."
"Meal times must not exceed 30 minutes."
"Remember to keep your subordinates in line."
"The task must be completed tonight, and the results reported."
Yun Ni's mind flashed with aurora; her hands immediately began typing on the keyboard, allocating a small part of the task to several team members.
She took on the majority of the task herself.
Work was completely devoid of spirit; it had nothing to do with the soul and was irrelevant to the myriad threads of emotion.
It wouldn't trigger a strong backlash from the Heart Demon.
Work work work!
—Start coding!
Think of nothing else, just immerse yourself in endless work like any other mortal!
The Heart Demon is the self-destructive consciousness ignited by countless causes and desires.
It needs thoughts to nourish.
If she devoted herself entirely to work, only caring about the task at hand—
Wouldn't she be just like a soulless zombie?
What Heart Demon could a zombie have!
This was cutting off the roots of the Heart Demon directly!
Could it be—
Was this the reason Shen Ye wanted her to work?
