"Hero?" Xiao Chen picked up the phone. He was wondering where this kid disappeared to! However, Xiao Chen was really busy recently, so he didn't take the initiative to ask!
Xiao Chen was actually afraid that Zhu Yingxiong was just hot-blooded at the beginning. When he calmed down, he would succumb to the pressure from his family and cut off contact with him. If that was the case, it would be awkward for Xiao Chen to look for him! After all, Chen Jinpeng was a living example.
Although Xiao Chen felt that Zhu Yingxiong wasn't that kind of person, it was hard to say for the people in his family.
"Bro, I'm Lao Zhu. Have you forgotten me?" Zhu Yingxiong's excited voice came from the other side of the phone. "That's great. Bro, you are still alive!"
"Pfft … You want me to die so much!" Xiao Chen was speechless.
"No! Bro, you have already left the Xiao family. There is a bloody storm outside, but you can still survive. You are so awesome! I was really afraid that you were assassinated by a villain! "Zhu Yingxiong said," Where are you? I'm going to find you now! "
"Ugh … I'm at the morning market street near the Second High School!" Xiao Chen reported his address. "Why did you disappear recently?"
"Don't mention it. I was beaten up by my old man. The next day, there were signs of a breakthrough. So, my family's ancestor took me away for a closed-door training. Now, I'm a martial artist with Stage One Inner Force. Wahaha! I'm preparing to accompany the bro to show off his prowess and beat up Cao Yuliang! "Zhu Yingxiong said arrogantly.
"…" Xiao Chen was speechless. Cao Yuliang was a master at the peak of Stage Three Inner Force! You're just a Stage One inner force expert, yet you're able to beat them to a pulp? However, it was normal that Zhu Yingxiong didn't know Cao Yuliang's true strength. "Chen Jinpeng is a Stage Two Inner Force martial artist, and his brother is dead. The Chen family's cultivation resources are all given to him. I heard that he is showing signs of a breakthrough. If you want to beat up Cao Yuliang, how can he just stand by and watch?"
"Motherf * cker, it's that traitor again!" Zhu Yingxiong was furious at the mention of Chen Jinpeng. "If it wasn't for him, Cao Yuliang would be dead! Wait for me, I'll go look for you right now. Let's meet and talk in detail! "
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Xiao Chen hung up the phone and couldn't help but smile. Zhu Yingxiong was still so cute. Moreover, it seemed that the Zhu family didn't restrict Zhu Yingxiong's actions anymore, and Zhu Yingxiong disappeared during this period of time because he was in seclusion to break through.
However, before Zhu Yingxiong arrived, the sky started to drizzle. It seemed that the rain was purposely taking care of Xiao Chen by not opening his stall! Generally, when it rained, everyone would close their stalls early. After all, it was impossible to do open-air business when it rained.
They found a bus stop to take shelter from the rain. Xiao Chen slowly waited for Zhu Yingxiong.
Not long after, a convertible Jaguar F type sports car stopped at the bus stop. Zhu Yingxiong sat inside and shouted at Xiao Chen, "Boss, here, here!"
"Ugh … You're still driving a convertible in the rain?" Xiao Chen looked at Zhu Yingxiong, who was drenched in rain. He was really speechless.
"Boss, you also know that with my figure, I can't sit in a sports car that isn't convertible!" Zhu Yingxiong said with a sad face, "I usually take the MPV. I thought that since I'm here to pick up boss today, I wanted to be cool. Who knew that it would rain halfway!"
"…" Xiao Chen got in the car and sat on his butt. Can this car still be driven after being drenched like this?
Xiao Chen felt that he was stupid to take the car like this. A bus passed by them. Inside the window, a little boy pointed at Xiao Chen and Zhu Yingxiong and said, "Dad, why didn't they open the canopy? They're so stupid! "
"En, they probably borrowed the car and came out to show off. They don't know how to use the canopy!" explained his father.
Xiao Chen was a cultivator. When he heard every single word that was said, he had the urge to get out of the car and walk away! Fortunately, Xiao Chen's face was thicker than the city wall. He was used to it.
Finally, Zhu Yingxiong found a cafe and stopped the car. Then, he and Xiao Chen walked into the cafe dripping with water!
Zhu Yingxiong locked the car and closed the canopy, which made the security guard at the side stunned! Are these two people crazy? They closed the canopy after getting off the car?
"Boss, I'm so sorry. I've caused you to be drenched like this!" Zhu Yingxiong found a seat and sat down. He looked at Xiao Chen apologetically.
"Alright, let's not talk about this." Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "I'm not Xiao Chen anymore. I can endure any harsh environment!"
"Right, speaking of this, boss, how have you been recently? I heard that you went to be a servant for Cheng Mengying. Did she bully or humiliate you?" Zhu Yingxiong used to be Xiao Chen's number one follower. Naturally, he knew that he and Cheng Mengying weren't happy. Although they were engaged, they were almost strangers in school. Xiao Chen even pursued Cheng Mengying's bestie, Shen Jingxuan, in front of her!
This was something that no woman could tolerate. Her fiancé actually pursued another woman in front of her, and she was even her good friend! Now, Cheng Mengying had become Xiao Chen's mistress. It would be strange if she didn't retaliate against him!
"No, Mengying's personality is actually quite good, and she treats me well." Xiao Chen lowered his voice and said, "But, this is also limited to you and me. Don't tell anyone."
"Damn! Really? " Zhu Yingxiong's eyes widened. "That's not right. I heard that the Cheng family humiliated you in every way possible. Not only do you have to endure Miss Cheng's harassment every day, but you also don't have a salary. How can it be good? Boss, it's not shameful to tell the truth. I, your younger brother, will support you no matter what! "
"Do I need to lie to you …" Xiao Chen looked at Zhu Yingxiong's disbelief and couldn't help but smile bitterly. "That's the rumor outside. If the rumor is that Cheng Mengying treats me well, the Cheng family would have already gone crazy!"
"Really?" Zhu Yingxiong still didn't quite believe it. He looked at Xiao Chen suspiciously. "With Cheng Mengying's cold and arrogant appearance, it's impossible for her to treat you well, right?"
"Well, let's not talk about this. I'm living well now." Xiao Chen waved his hand and didn't continue this topic.
"Well, boss, if you have any difficulties, you must tell me. I will do my best!" Zhu Yingxiong saw that Xiao Chen seemed to be really fine, so he didn't ask anymore. Although he still didn't believe that Cheng Mengying didn't retaliate against Xiao Chen.
"How much money do you have?" Xiao Chen suddenly asked. He was really poor now. Tomorrow night was the last day. He had to buy medicinal herbs the day after tomorrow. Now he still didn't have a penny!
"Money? By the way, boss, this time I came to give you living expenses! " Zhu Yingxiong patted his head. He took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Chen. "I know you don't have a salary now. It must be difficult for you to move around. Look at you, now you are reduced to eating in the morning market. We used to eat in restaurants!"
Zhu Yingxiong still didn't know that Xiao Chen had a stall in the morning market. It seemed that he didn't get the news during his closed-door training.
"Thank you. How much is this?" Xiao Chen didn't hesitate. He was really short of money. Even if Zhu Yingxiong didn't give it to him, he planned to ask to borrow it.
"Two hundred thousand yuan. It's my living expenses for the next two months. Boss, you have to save some money!" Zhu Yingxiong said.
Xiao Chen was very touched. Zhu Yingxiong didn't have much money. It wasn't that there weren't people who spent money extravagantly. However, Zhu Yingxiong's family education was more strict. So he didn't have much pocket money. However, Zhu Yingxiong really didn't spend much money.
This two hundred thousand yuan, if it was when Xiao Chen just bought medicine, would be a huge amount of money. But now, it was really a drop in the bucket. However, it was better than nothing. Xiao Chen wouldn't refuse it because it was too little.
"En, I'm borrowing it from you. When I have money in the future, I will return it to you!" Xiao Chen said.
"Boss, aren't you looking down on me? If you still need to return it, I won't bring it back!" Zhu Yingxiong said.
"Alright, then I won't return it." Xiao Chen smiled.
"That's more like it." Zhu Yingxiong was satisfied. He summoned the waiter to order something.
"Hello, sir. What do you need?" The waiter came over and asked politely.
"Give me a bowl of ginger soup!" Zhu Yingxiong was soaked in the rain just now.
"I'm sorry, sir. This is a coffee shop. We don't have ginger soup …" The waiter said with some difficulty.
"Just give me two hot drinks!" Xiao Chen waved his hand and said to the waiter.
"Okay." The waiter was relieved. He nodded and went to prepare.
"Boss, why didn't you let me say it?" Zhu Yingxiong was a little depressed.
"Your next sentence will definitely be, one thousand yuan. Do you have ginger soup?" Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. "Save some money. How many youtiao do you think I, your boss, can earn one thousand yuan by selling?"
"Selling youtiao? What do you mean? "Zhu Yingxiong was inexplicable.
"I sell youtiao every day at the morning market street! Missy doesn't give me a salary. I have to make a living, right? "Xiao Chen said.
"It can't be? Boss, I'm so sorry. You suffered. If I came out earlier, this wouldn't have happened! " Zhu Yingxiong finally understood why Xiao Chen appeared near the morning market street. "Boss, don't worry. I'm already a Stage 1 Inner Force warrior. I can do some simple warrior missions. I'll go to the Warrior Guild to accept missions and help you earn money. Don't sell that youtiao!"
"Warrior Guild?" Xiao Chen suddenly thought of something after being reminded by Zhu Yingxiong. The Warrior Guild would often issue missions with rewards. However, Xiao Chen wasn't a warrior before. Although he had heard of it, he didn't understand it. Therefore, if Zhu Yingxiong didn't mention it, he would have ignored it.
Now that he heard Zhu Yingxiong's words, his interest was piqued. "Anyone can accept this mission from the Warrior Guild? Is the reward high? "
"Yes, you can. However, the missions will indicate the warrior's level. If your level is too low and you die, not only will the Warrior Guild not pay the reward, they won't care about your life or death!" Zhu Yingxiong said. "However, I can only accept simple missions that can be done by a Stage 1 Inner Force warrior. As for the reward, the average for a mission is tens of thousands yuan. The highest reward is not more than one hundred thousand yuan!"
