Chapter 18
After eating the ice cream, Shi Nian didnât move for a while, and it was rare for him to sit there without even crossing his legs. He looked like a cute boy, very obedient and harmless.
But why did he have such an acidic tongue.
Lu Bo Ting rubbed his brow and finally gritted his teeth and said, âI donât need to bother you with this, you should be concerned about your own financial situation first!â
Shi Nian looked puzzled, âWhy, are you going bankrupt?â
Lu Bo Ting: ââ¦â¦â
Adjutant Xue coughed dryly and hurriedly said, âMr. Shi, what our Marshal means is that you are too capable with your shopping.â
Although they werenât at home, they shared the same robot, and sometimes when they paid a little attention, they could see that Shi Nian had bought another pile of things, and the robot had to make a dozen or twenty trips to carry them all in.
It was a good thing the villa was big enough, otherwise his stuff alone would have filled up an ordinary home.
Shi Nian said âohâ, âI havenât swiped my credit card, and I still have some money at hand. Whatâs more, doesnât your marshal give me three million a month?â
âBy the way, has this monthâs soothing potion been delivered yet, do you want me to help you look at it?â
Looking at his expression, one could tell that he was definitely not interested in the potions, but the money after.
This time it was Lu Bo Ting himself who replied, âIt was sent directly to my private research institute, where it was found to have the same damaging ingredients as last time.â
The implication is that your services are not needed. There will be no money to be made this time.
It was a pity, but when he thought about it, the second monthâs three million had already been paid, and he was not short of money.
âForget it, call me later when you have the need.â The boss was so generous that he couldnât wait to work for him again.
Lu Boting: ââ¦â¦â
Shi Nian then happily got up, âThe food is ready, time to eat!â
Lu Boting: ââ¦â¦â
Xue Chi looked at his own marshal, see, you are the one who spoiled him.
The person who was spoiled to the point of lawlessness finished his meal, left his phoenix downstairs, and went up to first collect the last bit of yesterdayâs medicine refining.
Then he went to the game room again. He had recently been introduced to a new ancient style martial arts game, which did not have mecha, but was also very enjoyable to play.
Each character in that game has a lot of skills, As long as you make a starting action, the game can take you through a complete complex martial arts actions.
It was very popular with some ancient style players, and it was chic to be a warrior in it.
He fell in love with it as soon as he came in, and although there are no mechs, thereâs the straightforward combat heâs more used to!
The game also had a particularly nifty setting where the more standard your starting moves are, the more accurately the game will recognise them, the quicker you react, and naturally the more powerful they are. This was tailor-made for him, and after an hour of practice, he had learned all those basic moves.
He also got used to using his body to fly, jump, retreat, etc. and invented two new moves of his own.
The classmate who introduced him to the game was stunned at the time, âReally, if I didnât know you, I would have thought you were a dance student, and you learned all those climactic moves so fast â¦â¦â
âCome on, Iâll take you to the fight.â
Shi Nian followed him to a single-player battle, a two-player battle that was relatively simple, and then followed him to a group battle.
Group battle was really a fight where no one knew who, if it werenât for the fact that the people of the gamerâs own camp couldnât attack each other, it would have cause a lot of their own people being injured.
It was a great feeling for him who had seen the melee in the cultivation world. The people there were many but not chaotic, while here it was chaos and confusion.
There was a commander yelling from above.
At first Shi Nian listened to a couple of commands, but later on he simply let himself go and followed his heart, harvesting heads everywhere.
He was involved in the battles of the cultivation world, although at that time not in person, but in the form of a phoenix, but in the case of fighting, it was the same.
He saw through openings and cast various skills non-stop, leaping through the air and taking the heads of his opponents. After one battle, he had collected a total of one hundred and twenty heads, which was a great harvest.
âItâs fun, if you have any more good games in the future, you have to recommend them to me!â He couldnât help but say.
The classmate who gave him the recommendation immediately said, âOf course, Brother Shi, Iâm a game fan, Iâve played over 1800 games, youâll be right to ask me for such things.â
After that student finished speaking, he couldnât help but look at Shi Nian a few more ptimes.
In here, you can change your face, but Shi Nian seemed to be very confident in his own appearance, and did not care about revealing his identity, directly using his own face.
They were all wearing the same ancient costume, the other people did not have the same feeling as him.
The game was beautifully drawn, but when it came to fighting, especially in a group battle, oneâs image is always a bit tarnished, but not Shi Nian. Itâs looked he was glowing all the time, and looked good from every angle.
The movements were fluid, the moves are simple and sharp, and the key is that he has collected so many heads in one game.
âBrother Shi is a gaming genius!â That student couldnât help but think.
They were having a good time, not even knowing that they were in the way again.
Since that last incident, Ji Yiqing had stopped playing that previous mecha game and replaced it with this one today.
He was already upset that he couldnât drive a mech, but who would have thought that while he was still in the adaption period he would see Shi Nian floating around in the air.
âHe must be doing this on purpose, heâs just targeting me.â Ji Yiqing said as he gritted his teeth.
âThis is too despicable, heâs not finished!â A friend said, âI blame Brother Ji too, why didnât you do something with him in the first place, if you were really together, he would not dare to be so cruel now, after all, if he were to become your guide, he wouldnât be able to be mean even if you were cruel.â
âThatâs because Ji was thinking about Bai Zihan, what else could he really do?â
âSo what now? Itâs obvious that Shi Nian is adapting better than us! And he doesnât need to be powerful, as long as we bring up Ji, weâll not be able to play this game again.â
âChange the game.â Ji Yiqing finished, then gritted his teeth and said, âShi Nian, you wait for me, I will make you look good.â
âThatâs right, sooner or later, Iâll make him look good, a guide is powerful in a game, whatâs crazy about that, if only he had the ability to fight in reality! He only dares to show off in the game.â
It was just a coincidence, after all, the two games were hot and it was only natural for them to run into each other. It was already a few days later when Shi Nian found out.
After all, there was no way that no one would know about Ji Yiqingâs group switching games, and the word would slowly spread.
âTch!â A classmate said, âHow tragic.â
âScum deserves it.â Another student said after scolding, âBut as soon as he saw that Shi Nian was also in that game, he ran, this operation is also too â¦.hahaha, he was afraid of being beaten up by Shi Nian again, in this game there is no protection by mecha, he feared directly being hit in the face oh.â
âI recommended that game brother Shi Nian. I heard that he liked to fight, he is actually a fighting maniac, so I â¦â¦ I really did not mean to target classmate Ji Yiqing, who made him too guilty and run away.â
âSpeaking of which, Shi Nian is really cool, If he was not a guide but a sentinel, he would have been the school male god. Handsome, cool and able to fight.â
â I wouldnât dare fight him â¦â¦â
âBe brave enough to speak up.â Passing by, Shi Nian tapped the student on the shoulder, âMuster up courage a few times and youâll get used to it, youâll find that the feeling is really particularly cool.â
Another student said, âAlas, I donât have your ability. If I had to go on stage and read my review, I would have become confused, not to mention the fact that I would have to face the scum, Iâd be dazed.â
âI dared to try it.â Another student came over, âbut itâs useless, when I think back I always feel like I didnât perform well on stage, I couldnât sleep at night and had a lot of regret that I wanted to scratch the wall!â
âClassmate, did you install a monitor above my bed, Iâm like that.â
While they were happily studying at school, Lu Bo Ting went back to the villa. The reason was that his mother had sent someone to check on him because he hadnât been home for a while. So it was important to know what her son had been doing lately and how he was living outside.
The person who came was his cousin, and Lu Bo Ting let the person in, âFeel free to look around downstairs, upstairs is a private area, so there is no need to go up there.â
Yan Hualin nodded, his cousin had a strong sense of private space since he was a child, so it is not surprising that he made such a request.
And there was really nothing to see upstairs, can he still inspect if the quilt was folded? Itâs not like heâs a child.
He didnât really want to do this mission himself, but if he didnât come, not only was his sister-in-law was hard to deal with, but his mother would also be annoyed with him at home.
So the two of them, one in a military uniform and the other in a suit, both elite people in any case, just walked around downstairs like that.
He pulled open the fridge and took a picture to show, âItâs not bad, thereâs quite a lot of food in there this time, so no worries.â
With that, Yan Hua Lin closed the fridge.
As if they had accomplished something, the two cousins sent the photo to Mrs. Lu, and were eager to part ways, one to the military and the other back to the office.
The two men thought they had no problem with the fridge being full, but they were totally unaware of the contents being suspicious.
âThere are too many desserts, and ice cream.â Lu Bo Tingâs mother opened the photo and noticed at a glance, âThat brat Hua Lin, whose fridge is he taking pictures of?â
Once Shi Nian returned to the villa, he gave a start and a deep sniff. He immediately sent a message to Xue Chi: âSomeone has come to the villa, is it one of your people?â
Deputy Xue immediately said, â Marshalâs cousinâ¦.But wait, how did you know that?â
âThe smell of perfume.â Shi Nian said, âItâs a bit like the forest after the rain, and by your popular human tastes, this person has good quite taste.â
Xue Chi twitched the corner of his mouth. Brother, are you eliminating yourself from the ranks of the human race?
There was nothing else to do, knowing that no outsiders had sneaked in. He went straight to the fridge as usual.
The generous boss had already asked the diligent deputy Xue to replenish the fridge, and this time there were quite a few new varieties, so Shi Nian was instantly very pleased. He was so happy that he emptied most of the shelves that he didnât even want to eat food.
He was picking up another ice cream and eating it as he walked out when he bumped into a beautiful woman who had just entered through the door.
Shi Nian froze for a moment.
The beautiful woman on the other side was also shocked, âYou, who are you? I-am I in the wrong place?â
