As Lotus Sun had said, Huaguo Water Curtain Group had a lot of businesses under its umbrella. Elixirs were its main business, but because of its huge profits and world-renowned influence in the elixir industry, Huaguo Water Curtain Group had quickly formed a rich industrial chain after relying on elixirs to make a fortune: film and television, e-sports, food, shopping … Huaguo Water Curtain Group's shadow could be seen in almost every popular industry.
For example, this "Conch Lady" seafood chain store was in fact under Huaguo Water Curtain Group's name, but a lot of people didn't know its background.
Lotus Sun had wanted to be on equal footing with everyone for this gathering, and Headmaster Chen had taken care of the meal expenses, which made her feel a little more at ease. But the problem was … how had things turned out like this?!
"Student Lotus Sun, you don't look very well?" Li Youyue asked. "Can't you eat seafood?"
"No, I'm fine …" Lotus Sun shook her head hurriedly. She silently took out her phone and sent a text message to the driver waiting outside the school gate, telling him to go to Conch Lady's shop in advance and say hello.
Outside the school gate, the driver was also dumbfounded when he saw the text message, because Lotus Sun had only sent a message to say hello to Conch Lady's shop on XXX Road.
What kind of greeting was that? She hadn't even mentioned it clearly!
And the point was that this Conch Lady's shop was in Huaguo Mall, which was under Huaguo Water Curtain Group. There was practically no shop in Huaguo Mall that didn't know Lotus Sun … Was there even a need to say hello?
The driver looked at his phone and frowned. Although he was puzzled, it was Big Miss's request, after all, and the driver didn't dare disobey.
He immediately followed Lotus Sun's instructions and had the nearby bodyguards retreat three kilometers and follow them remotely, while he drove to the designated Conch Lady's shop to say hello.
After everyone left the classroom, Lotus Sun found that the bodyguards who had been standing guard outside the classroom had already withdrawn, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"How are we going to get there?" Super Chen asked.
"Let's fly on our swords. The competition is coming up, and we have to work hard on our stamina. Besides, we'll use up a lot of energy on our swords, so we'll have a good time eating, "Hero Guo volunteered. Stamina had always been his weakness. It wasn't easy for him to get a chance to exercise, and it was good to make a last-minute effort.
"I agree." Lotus Sun also nodded.
To be honest, they were all surprised that Lotus Sun would agree … They had the impression that she wasn't on the same team as them. Generally speaking, there should be a black limousine waiting for her outside the school gates.
But since Lotus Sun had agreed, the others naturally couldn't refuse.
"Then let's do it this way. Let's all ride our swords together. Who will lead the team? " Everyone took out their spirit swords one after another, including Wang Zhen and Liu Qingyi. Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal had given them spirit swords. Because the Heavenly Dao had shielded their magic treasures, their own spirit swords had also been banned. However, as a cultivator, it was naturally inconvenient to move without a spirit sword.
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal took every opportunity to give them one each. But the prerequisite was that after they finished helping Wei Zhi, they had to come to the Office of Strategic Deception to help out with some client orders, such as hunting down Dark Network fugitives and so on when they had free time.
In some sense, Wang Ling felt that Wang Zhen and Liu Qingyi were pretty miserable.
They could have been a loving couple in the world above, but in the end, they had come to the world below in order to escape marriage, and were punished by the Heavenly Dao … Not only could they not go back now, a young master and a young lady had to work for a living.
How miserable could that be …
Wang Ling naturally didn't have any objections to everyone choosing to fly on their swords. Flying a sword consumed both physical and mental energy, and they had to be focused, otherwise it was easy for them to slip and fall in midair.
Thus, there was usually a team leader at the front when flying a sword, and it seemed that Lotus Sun was the only one to be tasked with this task.
Wang Ling, Wang Zhen, Liu Qingyi, Zhenyuan and Gu Shunzhi all had to stay hidden. The only person here who had given birth to a sword spirit was Lotus Sun. One of the biggest benefits of a spirit sword was that it could achieve "autopilot," and the sword spirit could control the flying sword independently to share the mental pressure on its master.
If they could fly in a sword array, the mental pressure on each member of the team could be partly shared by the sword spirit in the lead, which was why many people liked flying swords in groups.
This was one of the few offline gatherings Wang Ling had, and it was with his classmates. Along the way, Lotus Sun's Mysterious Sea felt pressure from behind …
Mysterious Sea was well aware that this pressure was coming from Wang Ling's Jingke.
F * * k … He was just a little sword spirit, and he was being stared at by the master of sword spirits as the big brother of the team leader … The pressure was huge!
But Mysterious Sea didn't dare ask or say anything.
He couldn't figure out the master of sword spirits' temper, but as the saying went, a sword took after its master, and he was afraid that Jingke would kill him …
…
After about an hour, everyone finally arrived at the designated commercial square. There was a designated parking lot in the commercial square.
After everyone landed, Hero Guo started to gasp for air. "F * * k! I swear I'll never fly so far in one go again! I feel like I'm half-dead! I'd rather do questions for an hour! "
"Your stamina is too poor … Don't hold us back in the body technique competition, boss!" When Super Chen said this, Hero Guo instantly tensed up, and he secretly cursed Super Chen for his foul mouth. The rest of them were already impatiently heading into the mall.
When they reached the entrance of the mall, Lotus Sun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her driver had already given them a heads up in advance … everything was going smoothly as planned.
As they walked toward Miss Conch's shop, Lotus Sun kept cheering herself on.
She was just a normal student today, and didn't need special treatment at all; she just needed to be the same as everyone else.
But as she walked, she noticed that everyone in the mall seemed to be looking at her strangely … For a moment, an ominous premonition quietly rose in her heart …
It shouldn't be like this, right …
Old Li had been her driver for a long time, and should already know what she was thinking. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have misunderstood her. Thus, Lotus Sun started to check the text message she had sent to Old Li, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood when she saw the content! She had been too nervous at the time, and had directly asked Old Li to say hello, but hadn't said what kind of greeting … The content of this text message could indeed easily cause Old Li to misunderstand!
By the time Lotus Sun led everyone to Miss Conch's restaurant, it was already too late.
When the manager and employees of Miss Conch's restaurant saw Lotus Sun come out, they walked out with smiles on their faces and stood respectfully in a row.
Then, the manager stepped forward and bowed deeply. "Comrade Eldest Miss! Staff members, all in position. Please inspect! "
Lotus Sun: "…"
Everyone: "…"
