Chapter 1016 visit
Lin Feng never expected that Meng Jie would be assigned to the army by the second prince. On the surface, he was letting her go for training, but secretly, he was punishing her in disguise!
Tianxuan City is a city with clear rewards and punishments. If Lin Feng wins the challenge, he will naturally receive his reward. On the contrary, if Meng Jie loses the competition, she will face corresponding punishment.
However, Meng Jie is from the second prince's lineage, so even if she has to face punishment, if the second prince supports her, the punishment will not be too severe.
Under normal circumstances, the Warriors Guild would not embarrass those who had the backing of important figures. Meng Jie only needed to pay a sum of money to avoid the punishment imposed by the guild.
But for some unknown reason, the second prince seemed to have a rift with Meng Jie. This time, it was the second prince who actually spoke in person, asking the Warriors Guild to strictly enforce the punishment for Meng Jie.
Therefore, Meng Jie was assigned to the army, and she had to stay in the army for three years before she had the chance to return to Tianxuan City!
This is the punishment faced by the losing party in the challenge, and it is the most severe punishment of all!
In addition, the elixir store was also taken back by the second prince. Meng Jie is no longer the owner of this store, but is replaced by a fat middle-aged man with a big belly.
Lin Feng didn't expect that things would turn out like this, but he didn't feel much guilt in his heart. After all, his original purpose of challenging Meng Jie this time was to punish this charming boss lady.
The reason why Lin Feng came up with so many tricks and publicly admitted that he faked punches was because he wanted to drag Meng Jie into the water and let the gamblers turn their anger on Meng Jie!
Now, since Meng Jie has been sent to the army, she has been punished as she deserves. Lin Feng also breathed a sigh of relief. Therefore, he does not intend to continue to cause trouble for Meng Jie. Well! All the grievances
, just write it off!
…
Leaving aside Meng Jie's matter, Lin Feng's two bottles of Soul-Enriching Pill were sold for a high price of 2 million taels of silver notes. Adding the 9 million taels of silver notes in his hand, Lin Feng's 'living money' directly accumulated to
11 million taels.
So, Lin Feng directly recharged the 10 million taels of silver notes, exchanged them for 100,000 gold, and then cultivated his martial soul to the fifth level.
Looking at the little phoenix floating in his mind, with beautiful feathers growing on its wings, the corners of Lin Feng's mouth naturally rose.
However, when he thought that it would cost 1 million money to upgrade a fifth-grade martial soul to a sixth-grade martial soul, huh! That's 100 million taels of silver, Lin Feng's mood suddenly became heavy.
Where can I find 100 million taels of silver notes to top up?
How about simply robbing a bank? No! Robbing banks is too dangerous!
How about not applying for a challenge and continuing to bet on yourself to win?
That doesn’t work either!
Lin Feng only has 1 million taels of silver left in living money now. Unless his odds reach 100 to 1, he can earn enough 100 million taels of silver notes. Can the Warriors Guild offer odds of 100 to 1? Definitely not.
Yes!
what to do?
Headache!
…
After walking out of the Tianxuan Pill Pharmacy, Lin Feng was a little absent-minded along the way. However, just when he returned home, he saw two familiar faces.
Meng Jie and Zhou Xiaohui!
What's going on?
Wasn't Meng Jie sent to the army?
Why did she appear here?
"Brother Lin, you are finally home. We have been waiting for you for a long time..."
As soon as Zhou Xiaohui saw Lin Feng, she immediately jumped towards him. She looked like a happy little sparrow, very cute!
"Xiao Hui, why are you outside my house?" Lin Feng subconsciously hugged Zhou Xiaohui and patted her on the butt lightly.
"Ah!" Zhou Xiaohui whispered, her pretty face immediately turning red with embarrassment.
"Mr. Lin, this is my first time visiting you. I don't know what you like, so I just prepared a small gift..."
To Lin Feng's slight surprise, Meng Jie actually held two large gift bags in her hands, and said with a smile that she wanted to visit her.
What's going on?
Meng Jie, who was harmed by Lin Feng, was sent to the army. Instead of blaming him, the other party came to visit with gifts. It couldn't be a weasel giving New Year greetings to a rooster - it's not a good idea, right?
As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. Even though he couldn't figure out Meng Jie's thoughts, Lin Feng still politely welcomed the two women into his home.
"Sit down wherever you want, I'll get you some tea!" Lin Feng casually placed the gift bag Meng Jie brought in the corner, then turned around and went to get some tea.
After Meng Jie sat down on the sofa in the living room, she quickly asked: "Mr. Lin, why don't you see your two ladies at home?"
"They are all in retreat upstairs. They will not come out until their strength reaches level six." Lin Feng replied casually.
"Haha, no wonder Mr. Lin dares to come out to flirt with women. It turns out that no one at home is looking after you?" Meng Jie actually made a joke to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng just laughed when he heard this and did not show any embarrassed expression. However, Zhou Xiaohui, who was sitting next to Meng Jie, made a big blush, and her eyes that were originally locked on Lin Feng immediately stopped.
Come back.
"Here, please drink tea!" Lin Feng brought two cups of hot tea to Meng Jie and Zhou Xiaohui respectively.
"Thank you." Meng Jie and Zhou Xiaohui also said thank you politely.
Silence, no words.
The living room suddenly fell into silence. The three of them were sipping the tea in their cups, and no one made a sound to break the peaceful atmosphere.
After half a day, Lin Feng suddenly put down his tea cup, and then asked with a smile: "Mrs. Boss, when you come today, you shouldn't just pay me a simple visit, right?"
"I am no longer the owner of Tianxuan Dan Pharmacy. Mr. Lin no longer needs to call me the boss's wife, just call me by my name." Meng Jie also put down the teacup in her hand.
"So... I would like to ask Comrade Meng Jie, why did you come to see me today?" Lin Feng asked, touching his nose.
"Haha, I came today... mainly to thank you!" Meng Jie said in a surprising tone.
"Thank me?" Lin Feng was slightly stunned and said.
"Yes." Meng Jie nodded lightly, and then said with a smile: "In that competition between you and me, I spent all my belongings on you to win. Do you think I should thank you?"
"Holy crap! You actually used all your belongings to bet?" Lin Feng was immediately dumbfounded.
Perhaps because Lin Feng looked so funny, Meng Jie couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Giggle, giggle..."
When Meng Jie's laughter stopped, Lin Feng suddenly asked seriously: "Meng Jie, have you already made plans to leave Tianxuan City?"
"Oh! Mr. Lin turns out to be a smart man too?" Meng Jie glanced at Lin Feng in surprise, then nodded generously and admitted: "Yes, I have actually made plans to leave a long time ago!"
"Is it because of the second prince?" Lin Feng frowned and asked.
"Yeah." Meng Jie nodded again.
"I'm very curious, how did you offend the second prince? Logically speaking, your husband had a life-saving grace for the second prince..." Lin Feng couldn't help but ask.
"None of this is important. What is important is that I have offended him and received the punishment he deserved." Meng Jie replied calmly.
Lin Feng: "..."
"Haha, I came to see you today. Actually, I have one more thing to ask you." Meng Jie quickly changed the subject.
"What's the matter?" Lin Feng asked.
"Xiao Hui is a very pitiful child. She has been without a father or mother since she was a child. She has been with me for ten years, and I have always treated her as a relative..."
"...I am going to serve in the army this time. It is really inconvenient to take her with me, but I am not very relieved to leave her alone in Tianxuan City, so..."
"I want to entrust Xiaohui to you, and I hope you can take good care of her!"
