Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

In Jinling City.

Inside the Chaoyang Clubhouse, Lin Xia lay on the bed with needles inserted into his body, receiving an IV drip.

"Thank you, Uncle Chao."

"If you hadn't found me, I'm afraid the situation wouldn't be so optimistic."

Lin Xia opened his eyes. He didn't even need to look; he could tell it was Chao Wen just by the sound of footsteps.

The two companies frequently collaborate, so it makes perfect sense for Lin Xia to call Chao Wen "Uncle Chao".

"How did this happen?" Chao Wen walked to the bedside, pulled up a chair, sat down, and asked.

"I remember...."

"Don't you have a nephew named Chi Hong?"

"Uncle Chao, you must have received some help from the Chi family patriarch before, right?"

Lin Xia did not answer Chao Wen's question, but instead posed a new one.

"Yes, that's right." Chao Wen replied without changing his expression. "Chi Hong can indeed be considered my nephew, but I recently heard that he has been selling off his family property."

"If I sell it to you, I hope you'll pay a little more; I'll cover the portion exceeding the market price."

"He's something else..." Lin Xia sat up and told Chao Wen what she had seen.

It should have been incredibly shocking news, and Chao Wen himself knew it was explosive news, but for some reason, he just...

I'm not shocked at all!

Subconsciously, it seems that this is how it should be.

Lin Xia interpreted his calm demeanor as a sign that "he already knew about this."

"Then you lost consciousness..."

Chao Wen immediately took out his phone and almost subconsciously entered Chi Hong's number. He was stunned for a moment, wondering how he knew this number.

After dialing, it showed that the service area was not available.

"Trash Mobile!" Chao Wen cursed coldly.

"It's alright, I'll arrange for someone to look for him. He's not a little kid anymore."

"One should be mindful of one's limits when doing things."

"Speaking of which, I saw your third uncle a while ago, do you know what he said to me?"

Chao Wen patted his knee and asked.

"Third Uncle?" Lin Xia asked with a smile, "What could he possibly say?"

"Uncle Chao, just come to me if you have any business matters. I am the one in charge of the Lin family. My third uncle is not worth mentioning."

Lin Xia's tone was filled with strong confidence.

"Your third uncle wants people from the Lin family to become in-laws with me, Chaowen, so that our cooperation can be closer," Chaowen said softly.

"A marriage alliance?"

"What era are we living in, Uncle Chao?"

"I'm truly amazed that something like this can even happen; I'm just impressed by his big head."

Lin Xia shook his head, his face full of helplessness.

"He wants his son and my youngest daughter, Xiaoxia, to get to know each other better. What do you think?" Chao Wen looked directly into Lin Xia's eyes. Lin Xia was the youngest entrepreneur in Jinling, and his strength was evident to all. His future achievements would definitely surpass his father's.

"Uncle Chao, there's no need to test me."

"Children should focus on their studies. What's the point of cooperation between these two corporations in this world?"

"The most important thing is for the beast tamers to improve their strength. No matter how big the group is, if it is targeted by a beast tamer who is stronger than you, it is still a matter of life and death."

Lin Xia seemed to understand things very well, especially after this experience, which broadened his perspective.

"That makes sense."

"No wonder you're so outstanding at such a young age."

Chaowen nodded in affirmation. Just as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and Chaowu strode in, wearing high heels.

She held an apple in her hand and casually tossed it to Lin Xia, saying, "It's for you, have some."

Asagiri said coldly that she had only brought an apple when she came to see the patient.

Lin Xia's expression immediately turned serious. He sat up straight, grabbed the apple, took a bite, and said earnestly, "Thank you, Sister Chaowu!!"

"I'll definitely finish it!!"

"Hahaha!" Upon seeing this, Chaowen immediately laughed and shook his head.

Asagiri has a strong sense of pressure on many people because they were "taken care of" by her to some extent when they were young.

Chi Hong was pulled along by his younger brother when he was a child, Zhao Xia was spanked by Zhao Wu when she was a child, and other young masters and young ladies were all beaten by Zhao Wu to some extent when they were young.

Lin Xia, who was once kicked into a cesspool by Chao Wu when he was a child, suffered severe psychological trauma. Every time he saw Chao Wu, Lin Xia felt as guilty as a soldier seeing his sergeant...

"How about I betroth Asagiri to you?"

Chao Wen said in a joking tone.

"Heh..." Lin Xia sneered, "I, Lin, swear to heaven, even if I die alone, I will never dare to come within two meters of Sister Chaowu!!"

Asagiri's eye twitched, and she squinted at Lin Xia, saying coldly, "You're smart to know what's good for you."

Get well soon.

After leaving this blessing, Asagiri departed.

"Phew~~~"

"That scared me to death..."

Lin Xia let out a long sigh of relief, then said to Chao Wen in a slightly reproachful tone, "Uncle Chao, don't joke around. I have a girlfriend, and she's a kind girl."

"Oh? How come I've never heard you mention this before?" Chaowen asked in confusion.

"The past two years in Jinling have appeared calm on the surface, but I have a feeling... a storm is brewing..."

"Someone like me is standing in the eye of the storm, and I don't even know how long I'll live, so I don't dare to go public." Lin Xia frowned, her tone filled with worry.

"Whose daughter is she?"

Chaowen then asked.

"No, she's not some rich girl."

"She was just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family, not even a beast tamer; she was a teacher in a mountain village."

"It's those teachers from the worst environment, with extremely difficult lives, who are easily forgotten, living in the mountains."

A smile appeared on Lin Xia's face, and she continued, "She has a kind and resilient heart, and I am deeply attracted by her pure soul..."

"Okay, okay, okay."

"I wish you happiness and a speedy recovery, Xiaolin. I won't stay with you any longer; I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Chao Wen smiled and nodded, then stood up and left.

Seeing that he had left, Lin Xia immediately took out her phone and called "Xiao Mei," who was far away in a mountain village. However, the phone rang for a long time but no one answered.

"Class has started, right?" Lin Xia asked, somewhat disappointed. She lay back down, intending to go to sleep.

He had only been asleep for less than ten minutes when he suddenly opened his eyes and dialed the phone again, but still no one answered.

"........."

Lin Xia pulled the IV needle out of the back of his hand, got up, put on his coat, opened the window, and jumped out.

"Pure white swiftbird, go to that mountain, you know, that ravine!"

"I need to see her!"

Lin Xia faced the fierce wind and pointed to a spot.

Meanwhile, in a ravine somewhere, Chi Hong emerged from a dark cave. As soon as he came out, his face darkened.

"You fucking tricked me, didn't you?!"

Chi Hong grabbed the Mercury Man by the neck and glared at him, demanding an explanation.

"I didn't!"

"These are definitely the coordinates. How could there be any mistake? There's no way it could be wrong!"

The mercury man immediately waved his hand to indicate that he did not have Yin Chi Hong.

"Isn't this fucking forbidden territory?"

"This feeling..."

"The forbidden zone has become a reality?"

Chi Hong sensed it for a moment, then looked at a location where there was a waveguide that seemed familiar.

In a certain spot, a lark poked its little head out from a clump of weeds and looked around.

"Bailing, are we going to die?" The little pink dragon asked nervously, perched on Bailing's shoulder.

Listen to this.

"Does that sound like something a dragon would say?"

"I, Bailing, am a dragon tamer!"

"Don't mess with my mind, I'm telling you!"

Bai Ling's tone was normal, and she didn't seem nervous at all, except that her legs kept shaking as she spoke...
