Chapter 716  Volume 9 – Chapter 91: Gift (Part 1)

Although Christmas Eve and Christmas were foreign elements, in today’s era when Eastern and Western cultures were prevalent, most young people in the East regard this Western holiday the same as a traditional holiday.

Of course, there were a lot of dates taking place here and there!

The major hotels had already been fully booked. The tickets for the major theaters had also been sold out. Christmas Eve had not yet arrived. Most of the young generation had no intention of working, staring at the wall clock hung on the wall. Coupled with the fact that tomorrow was a weekend holiday, it would be a great relief for the entire week’s work pressure accumulated.

“Don’t dream! Even if Christmas is here, you can’t change the nature of you being a single dog [1]! Work overtime!”

In the newspaper where Subeditor Ren worked, the boss stood in front of the office with his hands on his hips, yelling at a group of employees not in the mood to work.

As a spectator, Li Zi had no pressure on the accusation of single dogs. She was doing all she could to finish eating potato chips of a new flavor. However, the Subeditor Ren next to her was worried at this time, sighing. She was like the damsel in distress, as if locked in a big house looking at the scattered autumn leaves.

In an instant, Li Zi had seemingly seen a lord’s concubine in kimono being worried during the Meiji Restoration a hundred years ago.

“Sister Ren, what’s the matter with you?”

“I’m going to die.” Ren Ziling lay on the table. The appearance of the defeated dog was completely irreversible; she was utterly defeated. She looked at Li Zi desperately, “This month’s performance is not good. I still have three manuscripts not completed yet, and a particular column of a publication too. Tonight, I need to finish up the copywriting for an official account…”

“But Sister Ren, isn’t working overtime a part of your daily life?”

The sound of potato chips cracking in Li Zi’s mouth was like the sound of Ren Ziling’s glass-made heart shattering. She opened her eyelids feebly, “Luo Qiu asked me out tonight, saying it’s a rare holiday. I even shove away You Ye, but this damn overtime work…”

Li Zi blinked, “Aren’t I still by your side?”

“I’m not lesbian. No thanks.”

“Potato chips?” Li Zi still blinked, feeling a little bit upset. She still took out a piece of potato chips and fed her.

Ren Ziling also opened her mouth and chewed it.

Li Zi chuckled and said, “Time to work!”

“Let me…” Ren Ziling said sternly, “Let me set myself free again.”

Obviously, she was already a terminal patient of lazy cancer and had given up treatment early.

…

Zixing’s clothes were a bit peculiar, like a kind of minority ethnic’s clothing. Hence, going out in this way would inevitably attract a lot of strange gazes. Taking this into consideration, Windchaser suggested a change of clothes.

It was just that the clothes he could find so far were only those he wore – as for buying new clothes…

Sorry, the human world does not hire child labor for the time being. He could not get any job. He basically hunted for a living – his three meals every single day. Otherwise, Windchaser, who often ate at Cheese’s house, could only find a few dimes after searching for the whole “house.”

Of course, there was another way for demon beasts to get money quickly – that was to condense the demon beast power beads and exchange them for cash in the Elysium Bar.

Although Elysium Bar had this kind of business, demon beast power was the root for demon beasts. Naturally, not many demon beasts were willing to use this kind of service. Consumption in the bar was already taxing. Exchanging the beads for the money in the human world was merely idiotic.

“I’m sorry. I can only find these for the time being…” Windchaser stammered at Zixing, who was already wearing his clothes, “But don’t worry. I wash it very clean! Three times! I washed it three times! ”

“Give me your hat.” Zixing chuckled, reached out, and took off the hat from Windchaser’s head. She then put it on her head to cover her long ears that could not be hidden for the time being.

Thinking that Zixing not only wore his hat and clothes, but even the inside garments worn next to the skin was also his own, Windchaser had a strange feeling.

How about not washing these clothes after she takes them off?

“Windchaser. Windchaser?” Zixing suddenly whispered.

“I’m not thinking of bad stuff…” Windchaser came back to his senses, “Ah? What did you say? I didn’t hear it clearly…”

Zixing smiled, “I said, I am not familiar with this city. Where do you plan to take me?”

Windchaser asked subconsciously, “I can take you wherever you want. There is nothing I’m not familiar with here.”

“Then, how about there?” Zixing thought for a while and pointed to a building in the middle of the city.

This was the tallest building in the city, and it was still in the center of the city. Windchaser was stunned and didn’t understand where Zixing wanted to go and wanted to do, but he didn’t ask much, so he agreed.

“Okay.” Windchaser nodded, “But now, in broad daylight, let’s use the human method to get there! I’ll fetch you there!”

“Car?” Zixing was slightly surprised.

Contrary to her thoughts, Windchaser found a bicycle at this time. She opened her mouth slightly and finally did not speak. She said with a smile, “Let’s go.”

She didn’t agree to accompany Windchaser for a date. However, a few days had passed since that day she was seriously injured. She had regained some energy back. Naturally, she had to look for news of her subordinates.

The Wolf Warrior was suddenly killed by the white-haired woman that day. When the secret method Greedy Wolf Descend was utilized, the remaining two warriors’ vitality were extracted. Although the young master held back, the two remaining warriors were probably seriously injured.

She didn’t know if these two warriors were looking for a place to heal their wounds or were also looking for the young master, so she agreed to Windchaser’s invitation.

As for going to the highest point in the middle of the city, she naturally had other plans, but she still had to wait for midnight to arrive.

Since Windchaser knows Master Long, should I use him to visit that Master Long? Zixing thought to herself and quickly dispelled the idea.

Greedy Wolf Clan was proud, not to mention that the kings of Greedy Wolf Clan? This time, not only did a human woman rob the secret treasure, but as a young master, she was severely injured, and her body deteriorated. The matter was insulting for greedy wolves. If it spread out, she would be a sinner in the clan.

Thinking of this, Zixing followed Windchaser down the roof of the building where he lived. Naturally, Windchaser carried that bicycle all the way.

Zixing didn’t think much. She sat sideways on the back of the bicycle, thinking about her future actions. She subconsciously used her right hand to support herself with Windchaser’s back and pressed herself on him slightly.

It was just that Windchaser seemed to stiffen suddenly, so Zixing asked curiously, “Are we leaving?”

“Yes!”

…

Since Professor Trevor suggested using the secret method to improve magic power, both Wang Yuechuan and himself had considerable growth on magic power every day.
