Chapter 13: Dinner Party
n his face fell again. He had no money! There were only a few thousand yuan left on his card."Damn, I'm so unlucky! But I guess I can start asking around. If that doesn't work, maybe I'll take out a l...After Wang Lin sat down, this meal officially began. Wang Erpao clapped his hands and said, "Alright, today we have a new colleague, so everyone introduce yourselves."
"I am Wang Erpao, the person in charge here. My cultivation realm is at its peak, and my job is to find people. "
"I am Zhang Meng, the second in command here. I just entered the Refining Heart Realm, and my job is to be a fighter. My ability is perception."
"I am Gao Yue, the brain here. My current realm is still beyond mortal, and my job is a designer. My ability is visual camouflage."
"I am Wang Lin, a newcomer at the Transcendent Realm. I work as a deliveryman, and you all know my abilities."
Zhang Meng asked curiously, "What kind of ability is it"
Wang Erpao then told Zhang Meng about what had just happened.
Hearing about Wang Lin's abilities, Zhang Meng's eyes widened. "Damn, these abilities are truly abnormal. Boss, I can't wait to hang out with you from now on."
Wang Erpao reached out and patted Zhang Meng on the head, "I'm still alive! What Am I not qualified to be your boss anymore Or did you just get beaten by him"
Zhang Meng covered his head and muttered, "Where's a boss who beats his subordinates like this every day They've all gone crazy! Besides, I just wasn't paying attention and didn't dodge. Otherwise, how could my mental state possibly lose to someone with only five points"
"You're already dumb, so stop blaming me!" Wang Erpao roared.
Gāoyuè then looked at the two of them with disdain, “Selling your brains would definitely be worth a lot of money.”
Zhang Meng's eyes lit up. "Little Yue still understands her big brother. She knows that her brother is intelligent."
Wang Erpao also nodded in agreement, only Xiaoyue supported her forehead and smiled wryly.
What she means is that your brains are unused, newer ones, so you can sell them for a good price.
Wang Lin's voice echoed softly.
Wang Erpao and Zhang Meng both looked at Wang Lin, then simultaneously turned to Xiaoyue. "Xiaoyue, tell him, you didn't mean it that way!"
"He's right, that's exactly what I meant." Xiaoyue looked at Wang Lin and smiled sweetly. "It seems like we've gotten someone smart this time."
And Wang Er Pao and Zhang Meng were as dumbfounded as chickens, wilting like frostbitten eggplants.
Then Wang Erpao was the first to regain his composure. "Let's not dwell on other things. Today is a welcome party for the newcomers, let me join in welcoming them!"
After finishing, she clapped her hands enthusiastically at Wang Lin. Zhang Meng and Xiaoyue did the same.
"Let me raise my glass, to King Lin may he have a prosperous year...uh...may his cultivation journey be smooth sailing and he reach the realm of asking the void soon!"
Wang Erpao raised his glass, and the other three people did the same. The four glasses clinked together, and then they all drank in one go.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes,
Everyone had almost finished their drinks. Wang Erpao spoke to Wang Lin intermittently, "Boy, how's your cultivation going recently Cultivation of martial arts can be done slowly, the most important thing is the refinement of willpower and inner path."
"Don't worry, I know. As for martial arts, I've already entered the door. I just need to practice step by step afterward. Mentally, I've also made progress. After delivering packages every day, I can clearly feel my mental power increasing."
"That's good, be sure to prioritize things. Each time you break through a seal, your body will become stronger. When the strength of your body becomes overwhelming, even the best martial arts won't work, just like you and I today."
"Understood, from now on I will prioritize the cultivation of my mental strength." Wang Lin nodded.
Besides, Xiao Yue is really good. Don't you consider it Your ages are similar, and your levels are about the same, so it's very suitable.
Even when drunk, Wang Er Pao wouldn't forget his matchmaking business. It's a pity he wasn't awakened to the spirit of matchmaking.
Wang Lin fell silent. Xiaoyue, who had been listening attentively with her ears perked up, saw Wang Lin's reaction and sighed, lowering her head.
To be honest, she was conflicted. She wanted Wang Lin to like her, but she knew that she didn't have feelings for him. At most, she was just a little curious about him.
But I just want Wang Lin to say he likes me, maybe that's just a woman's pride.
Wang Lin won't take responsibility for himself, nor for others. He believes love is pure and noble, and under no circumstances would he consider pursuing it without being fully prepared.
This also made Xiaoyue increasingly curious about Wang Lin, “What kind of person is he, and why is his understanding different from other boys.”
Seeing Wang Lin remained silent, and looking at Xiaoyue pretending to sleep on the table, Wang Erpao sighed and beckoned Wang Lin with his hand, "Come with me."
Wang Lin got up and followed Wang Erpao into a small room. Wang Erpao lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and then slowly exhaled.
Actually, Xiaoyue is also a pitiful person. She was abused by her stepmother since she was young, and her father was too busy with work to spend time with her, which led to Xiaoyue having an extremely dark childhood.
She is different from you. Although you experienced a lot of mental pressure when you were young and were often bullied, you had loving parents and a warm, safe haven.
But she was different. She was bullied at home and at school since she was a child. All her grievances could only be borne alone, so she craved love while resisting relationships.
"I'm not trying to pressure you into anything. I just want you to understand her better. She's still a young girl, and she's very sensitive inside."
After hearing these words, Wang Lin fell silent again, and Wang Erpao didn't say anything more.
Wang Lin never expected Wang Erpao to be such a meticulous person, nor did he expect Xiaoyue to have such a tragic childhood.
Cooperating with Wang Erpao appropriately seems to be a good option as well.
And at this time, little Yue had already stood up and started clearing the dishes from the table.
When Wang Lin and the other returned, Xiaoyue had already cleaned up the battlefield from earlier.
As for Zhang Meng, he was already drunk and unconscious in the corner.
Wang Lin saw Xiaoyue still wiping the table tirelessly. He went up and took the cloth, smiling at Xiaoyue. "Take a break," he said. "I'll take care of the rest."
Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, then looked at Wang Erpao. Wang Erpao winked at her and then hummed a tune as he walked out the door.
Only Wang Lin and Xiaoyue were left, uh, Zhang Meng had too much to drink, so we'll not count him as a person for now.
Wang Lin wiped the table while saying, "I'm sorry about what happened just now. I was too caught up in my own thoughts and didn't consider your feelings. It was wrong of me."
Xiaoyue looked again at Wang Erpao, although she could no longer see him, she was still very curious about what he had said to Wang Lin that caused such a big change in him.
But that's not bad either, at least Wang Lin wouldn't deliberately keep his distance from himself. The two fell silent again.
Finally, Xiaoyue broke the silence, “Whose martial arts are you learning You're really good.”
My master is the master of Fēnggǒuquan, Chen Yannian.me left over from last festival.""Sure, sure, no need to arrange someone to find me, I can just follow the direction of the fireworks back."Half an hour later, Wang Lin returned to the path he had jus...
