Chapter 1273

“Leon, this is an identity card belonging to the Dragon Corps, and already contains your personal information and file within it. Its purpose is to identify you as an official member of the Dragon Corps, so you’d better not lose it,” Master Haslewood handed it to Leon.

Leon froze and shot Master Haslewood an incredulous look. “Master, you prepared all this beforehand, even the application?”

“Hehe, it’s just in case. Don’t be so caught up in the details,” Master Haslewood chuckled, trying to shrug this off.

Leon’s expression darkened as he realized just how wise and calculating this old man was.

However, since he already agreed to join, and considered joining the Dragon Corps would be beneficial to him more than anything, Leon had no reason to decline and instead took the card from Master Haslewood.

Finally, after explaining briefly to Leon about the Dragon Corp’s internal workings and regulations, they bid their goodbyes and went their separate ways.

The next morning, Leon and Iris were sleeping soundly in their room when all of a sudden, a loud rapping on their door jerked them awake.

“Thud! Thud! Thud!”

“Leon, why aren’t you awake yet? Didn’t you say you’re heading to Sky County today? Get up!” Ruth’s chirpy voice rang out from the other side of the door.

“Dang it, it’s Ruth again! She always wakes up in the wee hours of the morning. Honestly, where is her common sense?” Leon sat up in bed, annoyed, and longed to give Ruth the punishment she deserved!

However, he suddenly recalled that he and Iris were about to leave for Sky County soon, and after leaving Springfield City, he would finally be able to get away from Ruth and enjoy some peace!

Leon’s brows smoothened at this thought.

“Leon, you get the door!” Iris curled up into a ball and shoved Leon toward the door, her face blushing scarlet. Although she and Leon were a couple and thus had reason to live together, she could not help feeling a little embarrassed at the thought of Ruth standing outside their door.

“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about, Iris–we’ve been together for so long now,” Leon snickered as he pressed a kiss onto Iris’s face before getting out of bed.

After freshening up, Leon and Iris arrived in the living room.

At this moment, Ruth was sitting on the sofa, twirling a strand of hair between her finger. A row of bags and suitcases were lined up before her in a neat row.

“What on earth is all this, Ruth?” Leon gasped, pointing at the luggage as a bad feeling arose in his heart.

“These are my bags, of course! Didn’t you say we’re leaving for Sky County today? Of course, I packed all my stuff beforehand,” Ruth replied rather puzzledly.

“We? Iris and I are going to Sky County to expand the company, so what does this have to do with you?” Leon could not believe his ears. He thought that after leaving Springfield City, he would finally be rid of Ruth’s jabbering, but he never thought, not even in his wildest dreams, that Ruth would want to tag along with them!

Was this a joke?
