Chapter 421: Chapter 237: Endless Power, Yunjing’s Envoy_1
The sky outside the rented house gradually brightened.
Unknowingly, another night had been spent battling in the game.
However, staying up all night didn’t make Lin Xun feel tired. On the contrary, he was full of energy and vitality.
The physical enhancement brought about by leveling up his soul talent had gradually propelled him into the superhuman category.
Even if he stayed up for several days and nights, he wouldn’t have dark circles under his eyes.
"If every worker had this ability, wouldn’t capitalists wake up laughing in their sleep?"
He put down his phone and went in to take a shower.
The female servants in the game had already awakened, and two assistants were hobbling about, preparing ink for him.
Although they didn’t verbally urge him to write about the secrets of magic, they subtly hinted it every moment, indicating that he should complete the magic exchange as soon as possible.
Claiming that he didn’t want to be disturbed, Lin Xun drove the two women out of the sleeping hall. Out of sight, out of mind.
Now, the guild leader was alone in the sleeping hall, scribbling away. The two female servants and two Yin Yang Masters waited outside the door.
To the foreign mage, he was a guest on the surface, but in essence, just a merchant for exchanging magic.
It was a standard procedure for the vice-palace master to not let him leave Yiye Palace before the transaction was completed.
Those with a fiercer heart might even plan to kill the guild leader after the magic trade, to prevent the foreign magic from falling into the hands of others.
However, Lin Xun didn’t care about all this. After all, he never intended to go through a proper transaction from the beginning.
After he finished washing, he picked up his phone.
The guild leader was still diligently writing, and the two female servants would occasionally come in to serve some breakfast and abalone pastries.
He wasn’t able to sneak out of the palace city to explore the outside world, though.
Getting a little bored since there was nothing to do in the game during the day, Lin Xun simply took the opportunity to slack off and let the magic writing happen automatically.
"I haven’t seen Little White in so long, I miss her."
With that, he dialed Lu Caiyi’s number, it was picked up after just two rings.
A girl’s muffled voice come from the phone.
"Hello, you are... Glurp glurp..."
Lu Caiyi, just got up from bed and was brushing her teeth when her phone rang.
She forgot to check who was calling so early in the morning, and answered the phone in a daze.
"Little White, just got up? How about breakfast?"
Lin Xun’s voice came from the receiver.
"Huh?"
Lu Caiyi fumbled for a while, almost choked by the toothpaste foam, took her a while to react, stuttered, "N-Now... Can it be a little later?"
Feeling shy, she didn’t mention that she still had to do her makeup.
"Okay, then a half-hour later, at the Stilted House in the pedestrian street."
"O-Okay."
"Beep... Beep... Beep..."
Lu Caiyi lightly touched her chest, feeling a little dumbfounded.
"Ah... why did I agree to him so easily?"
She still remembered clearly the big embarrassment when she last agreed to have drinks with Lin Xun.
She opened the game on her phone and pulled out the letters in the Book of Communication.
The last conversation with Lin Xun was...
[Sword Casting Master: Little White, let’s go out for a drink.]
[Little White Deer: Sorry I just saw this, how about tonight then?]
[Sword Casting Master: Next time. I can’t have anything cold today, so it’s not convenient.]
Lu Caiyi really wanted to send a ’small head, big question mark’ meme at that time, but sadly, the Book of Communication did not support meme functions...
"...Well, it’s too late. I already agreed."
She comforted herself by thinking it was just because she was still half-asleep and had accidentally agreed.
But as she thought about it, Lu Caiyi couldn’t help but smile to herself.
Seeing the smiling girl in the mirror, she suddenly sobered up, quickly pressing her lips together.
"No, I can’t let him off so easily... hm, I must eat him out of everything he’s got!"
From the bathroom came the sound of a girl brushing her teeth and humming a tune...
...
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xun turned to the busy Valkyrie in the kitchen, "You eat by yourself, I’m eating out today."
Upon finishing his sentence, he opened the door and left.
The blonde girl in an apron put down the spatula: "???"
Lin Xun went straight to the bottom of the apartment building.
There was still half an hour before the agreed time for the meal, so there was no rush.
He saddled up on a shared bike and leisurely cycled to his destination.
Most of the shops on the pedestrian street were still closed, with only a few breakfast stores open for business.
Chang Ren’s wonton is a famous local snack in Wencheng. Its soup base is delicious and its taste is light, making it a suitable choice for breakfast or late-night snacks.
The small storefront of the wonton shop was already crowded with customers.
Lin Xun waited for quite a while before he was able to claim a table.
He was contemplating what to order for breakfast when he felt something, and turned to look at the store entrance...
A girl in a white floral dress was already standing there looking charming.
Her already beautiful face looked even more youthful and radiant with a touch of light makeup. Her booming figure, not matching her innocent face, made it hard for eyes shift from her.
Several customers’ eyes were irresistibly attracted to the girl.
Lin Xun even noticed several young men itching to take out their phones and ask for her WeChat number.
He waved at the girl, gesturing for her to come over.
Under the envious gazes of everyone, Lu Caiyi sat down quietly by his side.
"What are you going to have?"
Lin Xun handed over his phone, "It’s my treat, don’t be shy."
After joining the Lightning Tribulation team, her salary from the Intelligence Team had increased from a monthly salary of 100,000 to 200,000.
The job with an annual salary of two million was already an unattainable existence for ordinary workers.
The only reason he was still in a rented house was simply because Lin Xun was too lazy to move.
