Chapter 24 Bastard!
Chapter 24 Bastard!
[Zhang Wanxin, the enchantress: The little girl's heart is fluttering, but this kind of boastful young man is not a real strongman at all. On the contrary, the more handsome he is, the more likely he is to be fickle. He is completely unreliable. This kind of pretty boy can only be left to me. Let's see how I expose his true colors, hehe...]
[Option 1: You are captivated by the older sister's alluring charm and immediately agree to be with her. (Reward: Five Universal Points, become a coveted little fish in the older sister's fishpond, easily injured for five days.)]
[Option Two: You are unmoved by beauty, but a fool wouldn't pass up a chance to make money, so you want more. (Reward: 15 Universal Points, Basic Poison Resistance Talent, over 70% chance of being injured for five days, Demonic Ability: Each time the Poison Resistance Talent is triggered, you will be "Venomous Tongue" for 24 hours.)]
[Option 3: You keenly perceive this as a test of obedience from a demoness and resolutely refuse. (Reward: 15 Universal Points, gain the Synesthetic Talent, be repeatedly tested by her beauty for five days, receive a stern warning and hostility from Zhao Guanghua, Demonic Nature: Each time the Synesthetic Talent is activated, you are prone to "chuunibyou" (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur) for 24 hours.)]
[Note: The characteristic of the basic poison resistance talent is—]
1. It will not be harmed by the toxicity of common poisons;
2. They possess a certain degree of resistance to extraordinary toxicity and are unlikely to die instantly.
Dong Guanfei immediately glanced at the luck value on the panel—55.
As expected, today's luck is at its highest point so far.
Just five points more than normal, and the difference in luck is so big?
Although these talents are all demonic and there is a considerable risk of injury in the coming days, he still feels that he is currently enjoying a string of good luck.
So, if the Danger Intuition talent is triggered, and the Luck value drops by one-tenth—that is, about five points, or even drops continuously, what unspeakable things will happen?
It seems I must always keep 10 general points to increase luck.
Dong Guanfei quickly composed himself and looked at the three options.
Option 1, which has neither items nor talents, is definitely the first to be eliminated.
However, Zhang Wanxin doesn't look older than 22 at all, so how can she be considered an "older sister"?
No, that's not quite right. It is indeed... somewhat "large".
The poison resistance talent in "Option 2" is good, but it still can't compare to the synesthesia talent.
He wasn't afraid of being tested by beauty at all.
Being given a stern warning and being viewed with hostility by Zhao Guanghua is nothing.
The problem is that the "chuunibyou" (adolescent delusions of grandeur) is indeed a bit awkward...
Zhao Huibao was furious when she saw him staring intently at Zhang Wanxin's extraordinary talent.
You just said something about being "heartless," is this what heartlessness looks like?
He's clearly a frivolous, dissolute, and lecherous man!
snort!
How could I possibly value someone like that? It's shameful!
I'm going to fire him!
immediately!
immediately!
She immediately stretched out her right hand and waved it in front of Dong Guanfei's eyes, about to say something, but he glared at her, and her strong dissatisfaction at being disturbed made her pause.
Dong Guanfei immediately turned his head, his gaze piercing Zhang Wanxin's peach blossom eyes like a sharp sword, his voice clear and powerful: "No."
Zhang Wanxin, who was secretly pleased with herself, suddenly froze, thinking she had misheard.
One second he looked dazzled, almost drooling.
How could someone utter such resolute and cold words so quickly?
There wasn't even a reason!
Are you kidding me?!
asshole!
A strong sense of humiliation suddenly surged into Zhang Wanxin's heart and then rushed to the top of her head.
"That scoundrel has absolutely no manners."
"I was just testing you, how could you be so rough?"
"I'm at the peak of the mid-stage 'Transcendent' realm, do I need a newbie like you to protect me?"
"What are you pretending for?"
But years of pride and good upbringing made it impossible for her to speak ill of him for a moment.
Moreover, if she were to actually break down, it would only embolden that scoundrel and severely damage her own image.
it is good!
very good!
Let's wait and see!
Zhang Wanxin's cheeks flushed red, and she clenched her teeth tightly.
Zhao Guanghua's face darkened, and he was about to speak when Zhao Huibao interrupted him with a grin: "Ruthless! I was wondering how you got such a title, but now I understand."
She habitually pouted her full lips and pointed at Dong Guanfei with her right hand, "Can't you tell? Sister Wanxin is obviously joking with you. She's not a weak woman like me; she doesn't need your protection."
"Hmph, no tact whatsoever."
Dong Guanfei shrugged, his face remaining icy throughout, exuding the coldness of a lonely master. "Miss Zhao, soon you will understand what 'ruthlessness' means."
Zhang Fubao, standing nearby, frowned, genuinely displeased with Dong Guanfei's boasting.
But with Zhao Huibao blocking his way, he couldn't do anything to Dong Guanfei for the time being.
Therefore, it is inappropriate for him to intervene at this time; it will only make Zhang Wanxin more embarrassed.
Zhao Guanghua had a similar idea.
They were all people of status, and clearly several years older than Dong Guanfei, this hothead, so it wasn't wise to take them too seriously.
The key issue is that Zhao Huibao can easily become unreasonable and argumentative, making her too unpredictable.
If only I had trusted subordinates around at this time, they could step in and play the villain.
Unfortunately, they all went elsewhere to recruit ordinary guards.
In reality, Zhao Guanghua was secretly delighted.
Given this situation, it's impossible for Zhang Wanxin to have any more feelings of affection or ambiguity towards "Wuqing".
It's really not his fault for overthinking; it's just that this "ruthless" character looks too sinister.
I never expected this guy to be such a clueless idiot.
That's good.
Alarm canceled (√).
Zhang Wanxin quickly composed herself and said softly, "Huibao, don't say that. I was just joking first. It's normal for Mr. Li to refuse. He's doing his best to protect you. You just need to protect me."
"Of course, Sister Wanxin, you said it yourself, we're always together, hehe..."
Zhao Huibao hugged Zhang Wanxin's arm with a grin.
Just then, a middle-aged, refined man came out and handed the letter and silver badge to Dong Guanfei. "Mr. Li, the authorization procedures have been completed. Please check them."
Dong Guanfei examined the silver badge carefully without any hesitation, and then took out the letter to read it carefully.
The reward for a six-day mission is six silver coins; any extension will result in an equal increase in reward.
It must be said that the compensation was quite generous.
As Dong Guanfei mentioned, if he encounters a master of "True Strength" or "Spiritual Ingenuity," he has the right to run away at any time.
Because he only accepted silver-level missions, dealing with gold-level experts was not included.
If Dong Guanfei steps in to resolve the issue, the newly agreed-upon compensation will all go into his own pocket.
Of course, if Zhao Guanghua reneges on the debt, the Shadow Alliance Club won't interfere.
Dong Guanfei had no choice but to seek justice on his own.
Ultimately, in this world, strength speaks for itself.
"No problem, I'll be here at 8:00 AM tomorrow."
Goodbye, Miss Zhao.
Goodbye, everyone.
Dong Guanfei carefully put away the letter and the silver badge.
Zhao Huibao smiled and waved her right hand. "See you tomorrow, Mr. Li. I hope to see your 'ruthlessness' soon."
