"When did you get out? Were you injured?"
Nangong Shu received a call from Lin Baici and imdiately asked.
"I’m fine!"
From the boss lady’s questions, Lin Baici knew she’d already heard the news.
It makes sense, after all, the boss lady’s bar is the largest underground black market trading center in Asia, dealing not only in taboo things but also selling all kinds of information.
"Is it convenient for a WeChat call?"
Nangong Shu’s tone was worried: "I want to see you!"
"All my friends are here!"
Lin Baici didn’t dare: "I’ll be back in Haijing tonight!"
"Girlfriend?"
Nangong Shu smiled: "Don’t worry, I won’t ruin your relationship!"
"That’s not what I ant!"
Lin Baici was embarrassed.
Honestly, the boss lady was really nice to him, and she was always willing to teach him even in ways he hadn’t asked for.
"Shall I co find you tonight?"
Nangong Shu thought to himself that Lin Baici was still too innocent, but at this rate, it might only last a year or two, or even a few months?
As Lin Baici becos stronger and experiences more relationships, he will definitely change.
Haha!
The innocent Lin Longyi, eaten up completely by , and all his XP was developed by , just thinking about it gives a sense of accomplishnt.
No, I must quickly savor this phase of Lin Baici again.
People cannot turn back ti to youth, and even if they could, they wouldn’t forget what they know.
So this phase of Lin Baici is absolutely unique.
Just like the optimal tasting period for pastries, once it’s over, it’s gone forever.
"I’m with Director Xia!"
Lin Baici felt a tingle down his spine just thinking of the boss lady’s enthusiasm: "After the plane lands, I might have to check in at the Haijing headquarters!"
"Co on, ordinary people are like cattle and horses, they might need to check in, but who are you?"
Nangong Shu sneered: "The youngest Dragon Wing in Kyushu, the man who took down the Harbor Island Ghost Ship and Dragon Palace Island, even Xia Hongmian has to treat you with respect!"
"Luckily you don’t like Xia Hongyao, otherwise she would’ve already cleaned her sister up nicely and sent her your way!"
"Then I’d send her back, and have her bring you to instead."
Lin Baici laughed appreciatively.
He knew Xia Hongmian wasn’t that kind of person, as for Xia Hongyao, if he had ill intentions, even her second child with the high ponytail would have been conceived by now.
"Smooth talker, you must have fooled quite a few girls this sumr, huh?"
Nangong Shu spat teasingly: "I’ll wait for you tomorrow then."
"Okay, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now!"
Lin Baici didn’t refuse, he felt both fondness and fear towards the boss lady.
He liked how the boss lady knew how to care for others, but feared she wanted too much.
"Alright... hey, wait!"
Nangong Shu was actually super curious; rumors had been spreading like wildfire in the underground world that Xia Hongyao’s team claid the Harbor Island Ghost Ship.
The authenticity was still unverified because Xia Hongyao’s team reportedly entered the now God’s ruins of Dragon Palace Island right after surviving the Ghost Ship.
Now that Xia Hongyao has returned, everyone is speculating about what they did.
"Did the god on the Ghost Ship fall?"
Nangong Shu wanted to know the outco first.
"Not dead, but it will likely abandon the Ghost Ship and live on land."
Looking back now, Lin Baici sowhat regretted persuading that god.
It stayed on the Ghost Ship for so many years, having hard a good number of people, around a hundred thousand in total, but compared to the vast human population, it’s negligible.
If this Gambling God in the Human Kingdom, after being influenced, develops a new hobby of creating god’s ruins related to gambling, that would be a huge problem.
After all, in so foreign countries, the standards are so low, and if the gods pick up those tricks...
"What? Abandon the Ghost Ship?"
Nangong Shu was surprised, unable to ask more; otherwise, her curiosity might keep the call going endlessly.
"Anyway, co early tomorrow, I want the first-hand information!"
"If I’m satisfied, there’ll definitely be a big reward for you."
"MUA!"
Nangong Shu hung up the phone.
...
Lin Baici continued to browse through his ssages.
Gu Qingxiang hadn’t called, only three pitiful ssages.
This made Lin Baici a little uncomfortable.
But he could only bla himself, as he hadn’t replied, she couldn’t keep chasing him endlessly, right?
The counselor was quite indifferent in terms of emotions.
Unlike Big Sweet Sister.
Big Sweet Sister seed to enjoy her sumr, constantly sending Lin Baici ssages, pictures, anything as long as Lin Baici hadn’t blocked or deleted her.
Girls chasing boys, separated by only a veil, I refuse to believe there isn’t a man who wouldn’t stray.
With a gentle personality like Lin Baici’s, blocking Big Sweet Sister outright would feel too cold-hearted, so he opted for cold treatnt.
After a year or two, she probably won’t continue this anymore.
Zhang Ye, the receptionist at the Hilton Hotel, also sent Lin Baici pictures, though not as many, and her tone was much more humble.
Lin Baici skimd through; she had invited him out three tis, with two proposals for Sanya and Singapore trips.
She even flaunted the plane tickets she’d bought.
Said she was concerned about Lin Baici’s health, so she didn’t book Red Eye flights.
"Red dicine, what’s a Red Eye flight?"
Lin Baici didn’t understand the term.
"It’s a flight operating in the early morning hours, mainly cheap but pretty miserable!"
Xia Hongyao casually replied: "For our business trips, all expenses can be reimbursed!"
"If you do a great job, there’s even private jet service."
Lin Baici never thought about having anything with Zhang Ye, but her attitude made him feel comfortable.
After all, who doesn’t like being idolized as a male god?
