In the car, the atmosphere didn’t become oppressive despite the serious topic Xia Hongmian had brought up.
"Little Linzi will definitely not be afraid!"
Xia Hongyao muttered, although they had only known each other for a few months, she understood Lin Baici’s personality all too well—he was an extremely proud man to the core.
The more Xia Hongmian said that the Busan Divine Ruins were going to be difficult, the more he wanted to take on the challenge.
"There’s a question, if I purify the Busan Divine Ruins and come out with a big haul, how do I get back?"
Lin Baici believed that Kim Myungjin wouldn’t harm him, but even if the Goryeo girl had money and status, that was still the capital of the Da Xian Conglomerate.
The head of the Da Xian Conglomerate might not necessarily be friendly toward Lin Baici, and there was also the organization Sejong Zheng. Although the Da Xian Conglomerate did give Sejong Zheng a lot of funding each year, their influence over it was quite limited.
"Even if you don’t capture any God’s bones or get a single Taboo thing, as long as you break through the Busan Divine Ruins, I will lead a team of the Nine Provinces Dragon Wing myself to pick you up!"
Xia Hongmian smiled slightly.
Xia Hongyao was shocked. The Nine Provinces Dragon Wing was the Jiuzhou Security Bureau’s highest combat force, with each member being a powerful big battalion commander. If Sister Hongmian took them to pick up Little Linzi, the scene would be incredibly impressive.
"What about the spoils of war?"
Lin Baici smiled, "Am I supposed to hand them over?"
If he had to hand over his earnings, then what was the point? Wouldn’t eating, drinking, playing, and sleeping with girls during the winter break be more enjoyable?
As a multimillionaire, Lin Baici hadn’t yet enjoyed the pleasure of spending money freely.
Such a self-disciplined man,
A foot massage wouldn’t be too bad, right?
"Of course not, but as for God’s bones, they’re useless to you. We will offer you an absolutely satisfactory price for them and buy them back!"
Xia Hongmian just said it casually; she didn’t think Lin Baici could purify the Busan Divine Ruins that had existed for ten years.
If he could bring back some information, it would be worth the ticket price.
"I hope it’s a sky-high price!"
Lin Baici gave a perfunctory reply, thinking to himself with a laugh,
To me, that stuff is a great tonic.
"There are less than two months left, come to headquarters whenever you’re free. I will arrange for someone to teach you shooting, combat skills, and so forth."
Xia Hongmian reminded him.
Lin Baici nodded. The more skills, the better—time to learn!
The car stopped in front of the Hilton Hotel.
"Little Linzi, remember to come find me!"
Xia Hongyao really wanted to persuade Lin Baici to stop attending school, considering it a complete waste of time.
Lin Baici waved his hand. He wanted to take a shower and change clothes before heading back to school, otherwise he would definitely attract too much attention.
Zhang Ye was working the day shift today. When she saw Lin Baici enter the lobby, she immediately left the front desk and rushed toward him.
Zhang Ye greeted him with a beaming smile, her black high-heeled shoes clicking on the polished floor as she walked.
"Just call me Baici."
Lin Baici wasn’t used to being called ’Mr.’
"Would you like to go to your room now or do you prefer to dine first?"
Zhang Ye asked. The general manager had instructed her to take good care of this VIP. Besides, Lin Baici’s handsome and dashing appearance also made Zhang Ye want to serve him.
If only he were not penniless, he would be perfect.
Lin Baici glanced at Zhang Ye, who was still in her uniform skirt and black stockings, and the faint scent of her perfume wafted into his nose.
Zhang Ye operated the elevator, personally escorting Lin Baici to his suite.
"If you have any instructions, just give me a call. Even if it’s in the middle of the night, I’ll be there whenever you need!"
Zhang Ye’s statement was actually a very obvious hint. She didn’t even expect Lin Baici to give her designer bags or jewelry. She was willing to be an extra seat on standby, but Lin Baici was like a blockhead.
Lin Baici closed the door.
Zhang Ye stood outside the door, pursing her lips. Did he not understand, or did he just not fancy me?
That shouldn’t be the case,
My appearance and figure are not bad. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a takeout once in a while?
Half an hour later, Lin Baici, fresh and invigorated after washing and changing into tracksuits, headed downstairs. "Sister Ye, please throw away the dirty clothes in my room!"
"Eh? Aren’t you staying here tonight?"
Zhang Ye was surprised and quickly followed Lin Baici out.
Lin Baici didn’t plan to return to the dormitory, mainly because his enhanced sense of smell couldn’t stand Xu Daguan’s smelly feet. It would be more comfortable to spend the night at his beautiful and fragrant counselor’s place.
"Should I call a car for you?"
Zhang Ye was slightly disappointed. Just a moment ago, she was still debating whether to proactively deliver ’late-night snacks’ to Lin Baici, but now there was no chance.
Seeing Zhang Ye so eager and hardworking, Lin Baici took out his phone. "Do you want to add each other as friends?"
Zhang Ye happily pulled out her phone.
She had wanted to add Lin Baici as a friend for some time but hesitated because hotel regulations prohibited bothering guests, and she feared being rejected, which would be embarrassing. She planned to wait until they were more familiar before making her move, but to her surprise, Lin Baici took the initiative today.
After adding each other as friends, Lin Baici casually sent Zhang Ye a hundred yuan red packet. Follow current novels on novel fire.net
"Wow, thank you, Boss Lin!"
Zhang Ye pretended to be excited and hugged Lin Baici’s left arm, then promptly let go before he could feel repulsed. She was good at gauging such things.
[A piece of chewing gum can be chewed a bit, just to relieve boredom!]
[Don’t worry, she’s not sick, and she knows her boundaries. She won’t pester you, and a few designer bags will easily send her packing.]
Listening to the Eater God’s commentary, Lin Baici’s brow quirked. The brief touch on his arm also made him feel a bit restless.
