Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Let me take a look…

Early the next morning, Lincoln got up and started reviewing resumes.

With thousands of resumes, Mavis had already pre-filtered them, greatly reducing Lincoln’s workload.

Randall’s resume was placed at the top of the planner category.

When Lincoln saw that he was from NetDragon, he directly put a big red cross in his heart, not bothering to look carefully, and skipped to the next one. “I won’t use people from NetDragon even if I’m short-staffed!”

That’s how petty he was.

Going through the resumes one by one, he went through all of the planner and beautician resumes and didn’t find any particularly satisfying ones.

This puzzled him, as he hadn’t noticed that he was being targeted by large companies and that high-end talent was all in large companies.

Should he hire a few people first to cope, and then recruit when the company’s strength improves?

Lincoln was very reluctant.

Aren’t these high-end talents curious about cutting-edge technology at all? The opportunity to change the world is right in front of them, but they don’t dare resign to take a gamble? Are they that realistic? 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝑚

After thinking about it, he opened the recycle bin and restored the crossed-out resume of Randall.

“I’m just taking a look, not really going to hire.”

Upon closer inspection, he realized that Randall was indeed a top-tier and versatile talent, exactly what Lincoln needed at the moment.

Normally, someone with such potential would surely be on the fast track to success, with little doubt that they would become a pillar of NetDragon in the future, and would not leave lightly.

“Could it be a spy?” Lincoln couldn’t help but wonder.

“Not at all!” Along with the gorgeous fireworks effects on the desktop, Mavis appeared once again.

Since they had changed to a new computer yesterday, Mavis’s computational power had increased tenfold, so Lincoln didn’t mind the slight waste of these special effects.

The era of being frugal had gone forever!

“Why do you say that? Mavis, do you have any special information?”

“Hehehe, Mavis knows! Mavis found a Spiritual Rhinoceros account that stopped updating two years ago, and an artist who stopped updating only half a year ago.”

“So?” Lincoln asked curiously.

“Both accounts belong to the same person, she is Randall’s lover. She used to post many photos with Randall on Spiritual Rhinoceros. Two years ago, she posted a status saying she was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, and the account was permanently discontinued.

As for the artist account named “Chun”, it is the same person as the previous one, which Mavis analyzed from many details!”

“So…” Lincoln followed Mavis’s train of thought, “The artist’s account also stopped updating half a year ago, and you think her body can no longer support her creative work, right?”

“Mavis felt very sad too, but for patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, their average lifespan is about 1+ to 5 years, and she…”

“I know.” Lincoln sighed.

Besides, even if it could be reproduced, that kind of life would be no fun at all.

Lincoln understood Randall’s feelings as he saw hope in himself.

So, he did not discuss the treatment in his message, and without hesitation, left NetDragon for Lincoln’s small temple, which Lincoln also admired.

If such a man is not trustworthy, then who is?

It’s him!

“Mavis, send the invitation! This afternoon, come directly to join the company!”

“Bring his wife!”

“There’s no suitable beautician anyway, so she can have that spot and join us for fun!”

As for the administrative assistant, that’s not urgent, it can be discussed later.

Jordan had arrived, and it was time to go out and practice shooting!

Pengju also followed Lincoln and got into Jordan’s car.

Jordan seemed to have anticipated this, and after a brief introduction, he started driving.

He chatted with Lincoln, who was sitting in the co-driver’s seat, while driving.

“Lincoln, brother, how did you make that thing in the first place? When Princess went to buy equipment for you, I followed her all the way, and that bunch of stuff wasn’t expensive, so I guess it wasn’t anything special. But once you got your hands on it, it became a shocking new technology nationwide. I heard that it’s quite advanced worldwide too. How did you do that?”

Lincoln looked strangely at Jordan who was driving.

Is this really Jordan? The man who always wears a suit and black sunglasses, with a cold face, always silent, using no more words than necessary? freewebn ovel.com

Jordan saw that Lincoln didn’t answer and didn’t care. He continued, “Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean anything by it. Even if you tell me how to make these devices, I won’t understand. Just because my old man gave me the name Jordan, it’s useless. I was never cut out to be a cultured person, I never loved reading since I was young. Luckily, I got a bit hot-headed and joined the army. After a lot of training in the barracks, I now have a decent job and people respect me wherever I go.”

Before Lincoln could reply, he continued, “Of course, I know that they don’t really respect me, but they respect Princess. I’ve practically watched her grow up. She used to be a cute little girl who was timid around everyone, but now she’s all grown up! Let me tell you…”

“Hold on, hold on.” Lincoln couldn’t help but interrupt, “Are you really Jordan?

Not his twin brother or something?”

“How could I be? There’s only one of me in our family. Otherwise, my mother wouldn’t have been worried all the time when I was in the army, wanting to keep in touch with me every three days. On the other hand, my dad was overjoyed, thinking that I finally did something right, and that this useless piece of wood might have a chance to succeed. And of course, my mom didn’t oppose me joining the army. It hadn’t been long since the war ended back then, so my mom naturally worried. Nowadays, it’s much better. It’s unlikely there will be another war, and even if there is, no one dares to fight us any more…”

“Hold on, hold on!” Lincoln’s forehead ached, “What I mean is, you don’t talk much when I see you before, right?”

“Yeah, when I’m working, I have to be serious and focused. My superior entrusted me with such an important task, and that’s their trust in me. I have to live up to that trust and not be negligent at all! Besides, being Princess’s bodyguard and walking with her outside represents her face. We can’t disgrace her, can we? So, during work, I try not to talk nonsense so I can stay focused. There’s no room for error if I’m focused.”

He continued to explain, “But over time, I became talkative in my spare time. I know that about myself. But knowing that doesn’t help, as I can’t hold it in.

Don’t be angry, I can’t help it, and I can’t change this habit…”

Who are you, really? Bring back that cold-faced bodyguard to me!
