The mayor of Valve City was rendered speechless by the request from his "life-saving benefactor", so...
Is my life worth ten billion?
For the first ti, the mayor of Valve City realized he’s worth that much, his benefactor truly values him!
Just as the mayor of Valve City was thinking of how to "tactfully" change the subject, the mayor’s wife gracefully stepped forward, smoothing her slightly ssy hair, hesitatingly saying:
"Sir, would one billion be okay?"
"Yes."
Lin Hao squeezed out the incarnation’s consciousness and directly agreed.
Mayor:...
Mayor’s wife:...
Goodness, I know how to haggle, you know how to quote a price, do you???
Lin Hao couldn’t care less about the speechlessness of the mayor and his wife, he was just thinking...
This money could be directly returned to the old man Hua Busi.
Relieve the ntal pressure of being one billion in debt.
But this idea was vetoed by the incarnation...
The incarnation’s reason was as follows:
We need to separate our identities, the bank transactions from Valve City shouldn’t be going into your account... this might lead to your secret identity being discovered and targeted... you being alive matters, I can die a hundred tis, a thousand tis, ten thousand tis and it won’t matter... after today’s events, I can choose to reside in Valve City for cultivation, conditions for cultivation will be better, and it will be more convenient to act... you can use the money earned in Ke Chen City to repay debts...
Lin Hao: You’re right.
After quickly reaching a consensus with the incarnation, Lin Hao decided to withdraw his Divine Thought and let the incarnation negotiate and navigate autonomously in Valve City, as he had promised Li Chuchu to visit her ho in the morning.
Ke Chen City’s Happy Milk Tea Co., Ltd. is his foundation, and the foundation cannot be lost.
Repaying the debt still depends on "legal" inco, magical combat offers no "future in money"...
Only the Immortal Path.
...
Lin Hao left the Hua Family Ancestral Hall, at the entrance a car had already stopped, arranged by Li Chuchu.
When Lin Hao appeared, a professional bodyguard, who had morized Lin Hao’s appearance, imdiately opened the door and slightly bowed, indicating for Lin Hao to sit inside.
"Sir, do you need to help you with the seatbelt?"
"No need, I’ll do it myself."
Although Lin Hao was now certain that a simple car accident wouldn’t endanger his life, and had contemplated buying a reduced-spec car without airbags, but...
Safety first.
No need to stage a "harmless car accident" to prove his current strength.
Chenxi District today seed sowhat tranquil.
The roads were no longer bustling with activity, nor students helping elderly grandmothers with paynt codes cross the street...
After all, "migrant workers" would be stopped outside of Chenxi District starting today...
Yet, no matter how spacious the streets, the car carrying Lin Hao still didn’t speed, prioritizing stability.
Soon, amidst the dense array of buildings, the car Lin Hao was sitting in stopped at the entrance of an estate.
"Lin Hao, you’re here!"
Already inford when Lin Hao got in the car, Li Chuchu was now standing gracefully at the estate’s entrance.
As the car stopped for inspection, Li Chuchu took advantage of the mont to get into the car, sitting beside Lin Hao, and proactively fastening her seatbelt.
Li Chuchu: "Lin Hao, my abilities are limited, I could only bring our current employees into Chenxi District, we can’t take care of the regular clients we have."
Lin Hao: "That’s already impressive, even the old man Hua Busi could only let co in by myself."
Li Chuchu: "Oh, and who knows what terrifying event will happen in Ke Chen City."
Lin Hao: "That’s beyond our control."
Li Chuchu: "Exactly, we’re just selling milk tea, let the big shots worry about Ke Chen City!"
The two quickly settled into a casual conversation...
As the car slowly drove into the estate, Li Chuchu began to introduce her ho to Lin Hao, recounting her childhood experiences:
"In spring, all kinds of flowers bloom in this garden, it’s beautiful, so butterflies look really nice, but I wouldn’t suggest catching them randomly, so are protected insects, I’ve gotten my dad penalized for catching butterflies at ho...
In sumr, lying on this lawn sunbathing and flying kites feels really pleasant, especially when the gardener trims the lawn, the air is filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees...
Now it’s autumn, but we’re not fully into the season yet, after a while, you can pick and eat fruits in this orchard, those requiring peeling don’t even need to be washed, just pick and eat them, I’ll bring you then...
In winter, a thick layer of ice forms on the lake surface, you can skate on it, but you have to ti it right, it’s easy to fall into the water when the ice is forming or about to lt...
That place is where several tailors in my ho reside, because of these tailors, I only realized after studying outside that clothes can also be sold as finished products, I was initially mocked by so male classmates due to this, saying I didn’t know about big brands, how would I know, all our clothes at ho are made by tailors..."
...
In the car, Li Chuchu cheerfully introduced the place where she grew up to Lin Hao, while Mr. Li, observing everything through the car’s surveillance system...
His fists were clenching and unclenching, unclenching and clenching, his expression shifting unpredictably.
His mind filled with:
Lin Hao, male, native of Ke Chen City, citizen ID: xxxx, currently residing at the Ke Chen City Managent Team Guest House, confird his superpower awakening making milk tea three months ago, recorded as "Milk Tea Master" in Ke Chen City Managent Team’s registry.
When the technician I arranged tried to seduce him, he refused, indicating that he, like , is a decent gentleman fond of foot baths, though this kid prefers pure water and dislikes adding ginger or milk...
We’re not on the sa path!
"Old Li, relax, I think this young man’s pretty good." Mrs. Li looked at Mr. Li, patting his back to comfort him.
"Don’t touch , I’m very upset right now." Mr. Li furrowed his brows, instinctively swatting Mrs. Li’s hand away.
Suddenly, the air fell silent.
"I’m counting to three..."
Mr. Li’s eyes widened imdiately, eyebrows arched, and a charming smile surfaced on his face, as he hooked Mrs. Li’s arm, giving it a little shake.
Mrs. Li: "I think this young man is pretty good, he looks decent too."
Mr. Li: "He’s alright, doesn’t have any bad habits, but he can’t protect our Chuchu in the future."
Mrs. Li: "How do you know he can’t protect her?"
Mr. Li: "My dear, sotis you have to acknowledge that so things are determined at birth, if they’re there, they’re there, if not, then they’re not."
Mrs. Li: "Then... why can’t our Chuchu protect him?"
Mr. Li opened his mind, looked back at the screen, and felt like...
It’s not impossible.
They’ve already tried sending soone to seduce the boy, but it didn’t work.
That’s both a bad thing and a good thing.
So under his wife’s guidance, he arranged to have more articles like "live-in son-in-law" pushed to Lin Hao’s phone browser and similar apps, to see if he likes those and can accept them...
Live-in son-in-law?
Anyway, there are a lot of online novels like that nowadays, and so of them are quite intriguing.
Then...
Arrange to have more news stories about the happy life of being a live-in son-in-law sent to Lin Hao.
What?
You say there aren’t that many news reports on the happy life of being a live-in son-in-law?
Do you even understand what news is?
Watching the monitor, Mr. Li saw his precious daughter and the one surnad Lin nearing the reception building. He straightened his collar, ensuring his deanor was excellent and his outfit had no creases, so he wouldn’t embarrass his precious daughter. Mr. Li then walked proudly towards the reception building.
Previously, he only got to know him through textual information, photos, and videos. Now, finally having the chance to et in person, he felt it was necessary to make the most of it.
Mrs. Li watched her husband’s back and shook her head lightly with a gentle smile, then gracefully followed and gently took his arm.
Although having Mrs. Li take his arm might wrinkle Mr. Li’s clothes, such a crease...
Made Mr. Li’s presence even more commanding!
...
"Lin Hao, look, the person walking over is my dad, and the one holding my dad is my mom. My dad usually puts on a bit of an act; if he gives you a hard ti later, just ignore him."
Following Li Chuchu’s pointed direction, Lin Hao’s Divine Thought sensed that Li Chuchu’s father...
Is a martial artist.
An even more powerful martial artist than Mr. Hua Busi.
As for how he compares to himself, Lin Hao couldn’t say. They’ve never fought.
If he wins, he wonders if it counts as a successful act of magical combat...
Lin Hao looked around at the luxurious surroundings and thought...
Li Chuchu was also quite kind to him. There was a ti when, not practicing Fasting, he struggled with als, and it was she who offered him a helping al.
There’s so much to gain out there, no need to focus on the Li family.
"So, this is your..."
As they got closer, Mr. Li didn’t look at Lin Hao but instead gazed at Li Chuchu, deliberately lowering his voice to make it as deep as possible.
Mrs. Li subtly pinched Mr. Li as she held his arm...
"Oh oh oh, so this is your partner Lin Hao, right? Lin Hao, my daughter has been really fortunate to have your care outside all this ti.
Think of coming here as coming to your own ho, don’t feel uneasy at all.
After lunch, take a short nap, and aren’t you going to host a milk tea tasting event later? I’ve already inford people for a prompt start at two in the afternoon!"
...
Two in the afternoon.
"Welco everyone to Youshan City, and thank you to the friends listening via radio at this mont. I’m the head of Youshan City, and today, I shall announce the secret of the Hidden Cultivation Association to the entire extraordinary social circle..."
The next second, the entire city reverted to "two in the afternoon the previous day."
"It’s like this again, six days now, better head out first."
A young girl with a bun in her hair and a lollipop in her mouth, after confirming there were no results for six days, left the gates of Youshan City.
Upon walking out the gates, she felt her connection with the world once again...
Inside Youshan City, she always felt exiled.
The more often she entered, the stronger the feeling beca.
However, the most noticeable sensation for her now was...
"The Penman is dead?"
The young girl furrowed her brow, carefully discerning for a while before confirming that the Penman was indeed dead.
"Why did it die again, was it a mix-up with the ingredients?"
But dead is dead.
The young girl didn’t worry too long and pulled out a box of modeling clay from her person, the kind commonly sold in front of primary schools...
Then, she began to carefully mold the clay figures, mumbling softly as she worked:
"Add a little jealousy, give him a bit of ambition, add more laziness to reduce the likelihood of conflict, a little less greed, not driven to pursue..."
In no ti, a clay figure had ford in her hands.
The young girl threw the clay figure onto the ground. It stood steady, slowly took on features, clothes...
It was a short-haired young girl.
She initially appeared confused, but after looking around, seed quickly to understand many things, imdiately kneeled on one knee before the young girl:
"Master."
Very pleased with the figure’s form, the young girl felt her skill improving more and more.
"Lift your head."
She took a picture of the short-haired girl looking up, then posted a nine-grid picture on social dia—
"This is the newly recruited Penman, please look out for her, and contact her if needed, thank you."
Just as the photo was posted, the young girl received a like—
Sister Lust thinks it’s great.
