Not wanting to lose face in front of a beautiful woman, I secretly took a deep breath.
"My name is Lu Mingfei, and I am..."
"I remember you should have joined NaDuTong several days ago, but I haven't seen you here."
Liu Yanyan and Lu Mingfei walked side by side, quietly observing the boy beside them.
His steps were unsteady and weak, and his center of gravity was unstable; he was probably not a person practicing spiritual cultivation.
Perhaps they are born with extraordinary abilities.
"Me...?"
Lu Mingfei thought his lazy, carefree life would continue until the countdown ended and he left this world.
Unexpectedly, I ran into a girl on the way.
He can't exactly say that he's been staying in his room for five days.
It will definitely create a bad first impression.
"I am waiting for my fourth brother's orders and improving my abilities to deal with any unexpected situations that may arise in the future."
That's right... Reading raw comics improved his English and Japanese skills, which is how he improved his abilities.
"You were someone Xu Si hired?" Liu Yanyan was a little surprised. She didn't know what kind of person Xu Si was. He was the bad cop, and his methods were rather simple and crude. She guessed that the people he associated with were all shady.
But why did such a shy boy like Lu Mingfei have to come along?
“Yes,” Lu Mingfei replied.
Xu Si didn't ask much of him; he had told him everything that could and couldn't be revealed.
"We're here, this is it." Liu Yanyan took out her key and opened the door.
Put the snacks in your hand aside.
Lu Mingfei carried a bottle of water into Liu Yanyan's room.
The living room was very tidy, with several stacks of yellow paper, some cinnabar, and a calligraphy brush on the floor. There was a faint fragrance in the air, mixed with some rather peculiar smells that he couldn't quite put his finger on.
It's a sunny room, but it feels chilly.
It didn't feel like a girl's room to him; it felt more like a Taoist priest's room.
"Do we need to install bottled water?" Lu Mingfei asked, feeling both excited and nervous as he entered the girl's room for the first time.
I started to carefully consider my word choice, avoiding unnecessary and frivolous statements whenever possible.
Liu Yanyan took an ice cream out of the refrigerator and handed it to Lu Mingfei.
"No rush. You must be tired from walking all this way. Rest for a while before going back."
"Okay... alright." Lu Mingfei sat awkwardly on the sofa, holding the ice cream that Liu Yanyan had given him.
The last time a girl gave him ice cream was from Little Fairy. She specially chose the worst-tasting one for him and said, "This is the one I saved especially for you... the one with the most peculiar flavor."
Liu Yanyan changed into a refreshing outfit and sat down next to Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei caught a faint, pleasant fragrance wafting from Liu Yanyan.
This was only the second time a girl had gotten this close to him; the last time was at the movie theater.
"Mingfei...can I call you that?" Liu Yanyan reached out and smoothed her orange-red hair behind her ear, tilting her head and smiling at Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei was caught off guard by Liu Yanyan's initiative, and his movements became somewhat uncoordinated.
"You can call me whatever you want, Miss."
Liu Yanyan's eyes lit up.
It's quite rare to find such a shy virgin who was actually summoned by Xu Si.
Could it also be a virginity mark?
Lu Mingfei probably doesn't have something like the "cinnabar mark" (a mark indicating virginity). Zhang Chulan might be a disciple of the Celestial Master's Mansion, but Lu Mingfei doesn't know who he is.
"What department does Mingfei work in? We can look out for each other if we run into each other in the future."
“I…” Lu Mingfei suddenly didn’t want to answer the question. He couldn’t very well say that he was someone waiting to be studied, or someone who stayed at home doing nothing and wasting his life.
"I'm new here and don't know much about these things yet, but it's a relatively easy department."
Liu Yanyan stared at him, wondering if there was a relatively easy department in any place.
Moreover, Lu Mingfei's answer was somewhat vague and unclear; upon closer examination, it became clear that he was hiding something.
Let's first look at his attitude towards Xu Si.
"Xu Si is a very treacherous and cunning man. You'd better be careful of him in the future. He has no mercy for women at all."
Lu Mingfei thought back to Xu Si.
"Fourth Brother does have a sharp tongue, but he's a good person, and he even uses his own money to pay my salary."
"What?" Upon hearing that there was a salary, Liu Yanyan's voice instantly became louder, and she stared wide-eyed at Lu Mingfei.
"You get paid? You're a summer worker, right? The pay probably isn't much."
Liu Yanyan was on the verge of tears. Why did she have to listen to that Quanxing brat's nonsense? Now she was working for Nadutong Company for free, without earning a single penny, and even had to pay out of her own pocket.
I regret my youthful ignorance.
"This is my first job, and I'm not sure if the salary is high or low." Lu Mingfei did not formally answer Liu Yanyan's question about salary. After all, he came from six years ago, and his current salary is much higher than it was six years ago, even comparable to his uncle's salary.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yanyan opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.
Prejudice in people's hearts is like a vast Sichuan Basin; the Quanxing sect is like a rat crossing the street, a dark history.
With no dark past and a clean background, he would not only be treated well by Xu Si but also receive a salary.
She suddenly didn't want to continue talking to Lu Mingfei; she was afraid she would be even more heartbroken.
"Mingfei, please change the bottled water. I'll treat you to a meal later."
“Okay.” Lu Mingfei obediently walked over.
A rapid knocking sounded on the door.
Liu Yanyan quickly went to the door and opened it, where she saw Xu Si standing with his hands in his pockets.
"Yan Yan, I'm giving you a task. Go to the suburbs and investigate the cause of death of someone. I haven't found Lu Mingfei. He's probably gone to the administrator to ask for comics again. That kid only knows how to stay in his room all day reading comics and playing games. Can you help me find him..."
Xu Si's gaze passed over Liu Yanyan and landed on Lu Mingfei, who was changing the bottled water.
"No wonder I couldn't find you. Turns out you've only been here a few days and you've already snatched away our all-knowing beauty, Yan Yan."
"what?"

"I was just helping to change the water," Lu Mingfei explained hastily.
He remembered smelling this odor from somewhere before: "the morgue." A girl's room smelled like a morgue, and there were also things like yellow talismans and cinnabar.
The girl just told me she's from western Hunan, so she might be one of those legendary corpse drivers.
He felt a chill run down his spine. If he had a girl like that as his girlfriend, he probably wouldn't have peace even after death; she might even crawl out and go clubbing.
Because of nervousness, my hands moved a little erratically, and some water spilled onto the yellow paper.
Liu Yanyan smiled and said, "Mingfei saw that I, a girl, was having a hard time carrying water, so he offered to help. He's such a kind person."
"Hey, you fell for someone just from changing the water? Looks like you're quite charming, Lu Mingfei," Xu Si said to Lu Mingfei, who had just finished changing the water and was wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
Turning to Liu Yanyan, he said, "Yanyan, you're amazing! You've managed to seduce two innocent young men I know. Lu Mingfei is a devoted lover, much easier to win over than Zhang Chulan. You should make the most of this opportunity."
"Really? Then I'll have to make the most of it, since gentle boys are the most likable."
Liu Yanyan caught a glimpse of Lu Mingfei's nervous expression out of the corner of her eye, assuming it was simply due to his shyness.
Lu Mingfei was instantly jolted when he heard Liu Yanyan's words about pursuing him.
Oh no, it's coming for me.
"Actually, I'm not gentle at all; I often argue with girls." That's right, I often argue with Xiaotiannv. "And I often disappoint girls." Mom, I'm sorry to disappoint you, son, I want to live a few more days.
Ignoring Lu Mingfei's self-justification, Liu Yanyan approached Xu Si and asked in a low voice.
"What kind of organization did you bring in? They look so weak and listless. They don't look like superhumans at all. When did Na Du Tong Company start recruiting ordinary people?"
The employee was carrying snacks and cola, and I've never seen him at the company before.
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Si was too young to have such an illegitimate child...
Moreover, the person following Xu Si could not possibly be like Lu Mingfei; she even suspected that Xu Si had planted his illegitimate child in the family.
"A naturally gifted person, working a summer job, the child of a friend of mine," Xu Si succinctly introduced Lu Mingfei.
"Your friend's child?" Liu Yanyan asked, slightly surprised. "Your friend could have such a child?"
Xu Si had an expression that said, "Believe it or not, I'm not going to explain anymore."
Liu Yanyan crossed her arms and leaned against the door, complaining:
"I have always been diligent, conscientious, and hardworking, and I even paid for my own work. Surely that can make up for my past dark history."
"Could you give me a raise?"
"Moreover, it seems that Lu Mingfei has never worked at all. I have never seen him at the company, so why does he still have a salary?"
"If this continues, I'll start to slack off at work."
“You are different, and you were once a member of the Quanxing Sect,” Xu Si said calmly.
"I am a genius from the Liu family of Xiangxi, a lineage of corpse-driving experts, a veteran practitioner of extraordinary abilities with over ten years of cultivation, I am..."
Xu Si's next words interrupted Liu Yanyan.
"You were a member of Quanxing."
"I...I helped you and Xu San get Feng Baobao to bring Zhang Chulan back. You know, Zhang Chulan is the inheritor of the Qi Body Source Flow, a very powerful one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques." Liu Yanyan continued, still unwilling to give up.
"You were a member of Quanxing."
"...Old Xu, can you please stop bringing up the Quanxing Sect?" Liu Yanyan's already flushed cheeks turned even redder, and her voice rose several octaves.
