Chapter 78 Morning Bell and Evening Drum
Chapter 78 Morning Bell and Evening Drum
"Yo-ho, yo-ho, what a good citizen!" Ah Huan praised repeatedly as he listened to the address his card-playing friend gave him.
"Pong...I won!" Qingque pushed over the tiles in front of her, looking at the two whispering figures. "Um, what were you two talking about just now?"
"Never mind, let's keep playing." Having resolved her major concern, Ah Huan felt much better. She turned her gaze to the card game in front of her and said to the man from before, "Brother, you can go now. I'm going to get serious."
It's still early, let's play a few rounds before looking for Gousheng.
"In that case, I'll be going now." The card player who provided the crucial clue stood up and left without hesitation, while another unfortunate passerby uncontrollably sat down in the empty seat.
"So... how do you play this card game?" Ah Huan asked.
"Huh? Dude, what are you playing?" The new card player raised an eyebrow.
"If you don't know how, you can learn. What's the big deal?"
"Brother, let me teach you," Qingque said to Ahuan with a smile, upholding the spirit of helping others.
How was your game?
Hearing Ah Huan's questioning tone, Qing Que glared at her: "You can question my professionalism at work, but you can't question my card skills!"
She spread her arms wide as if playing an accordion: "No one understands the Imperial Jade Token better than me!"
......
Zhou Yuan had gradually gotten used to Huanlong's attitude towards him. He sat on the edge of the bed, pondering, letting Huanlong call him "benefactor" in his ear and rub his back.
He was pondering how he should face Huanlong in the future.
You say, "Let's fight... She's already like this, but if we don't fight, it'll have a bad influence on her teammates."
Zhou Yuan was in a real bind.
He looked back at Huanlong, who immediately lay down as if by reflex.
"...I have a question for you." Zhou Yuan helped Huanlong up. "Why are you suddenly treating me like this?"
He couldn't understand it. How could an enemy he had fought to the death with just like that suddenly surrender?
Even if it's M, it doesn't have to be like this.
Could it be that I have too much personal charm?
The blessing of pure beauty?
"I...I don't know either..." Huanlong's cheeks flushed red. "I just feel my heart pounding whenever I see my benefactor. Maybe this is love."
Love is like a twisted dough stick... Zhou Yuan tried to understand it using his knowledge from his previous life.
The suspension bridge effect is likely because I made her heart race and she mistook it for being attracted to me... Clearly, my knowledge from my past life is insufficient to explain this phenomenon.
Zhou Yuan couldn't understand it, so he didn't think too much about the reason.
"What do you want to do by bringing the Star Core to Luofu after Destruction?" he asked again.
"I'm sorry, my benefactor..." Huanlong opened her mouth several times to speak, but stopped each time, "I can't say it."
“I understand.” Zhou Yuan nodded. Even labor contracts have breach of contract clauses; Nanook must have measures to prevent leaks for such a major matter.
Since he couldn't get any information out of him, Zhou Yuan saw no need to stay any longer.
He was always one to respond to gentle persuasion but not force, and he was powerless against this tactic of surrendering to beautiful women, so he immediately decided to stop interfering in these matters.
"Just pretend I was never here. Do whatever you want," Zhou Yuan waved his hand at Huanlong, like a heartless philanderer. "Don't worry about my companions. Just follow your plan."
Thinking that it wouldn't work anyway, Zhou Yuan got up, put on his top hat, and was about to leave.
"My benefactor, will you come again tonight?" Huanlong asked dreamily.
Zhou Yuan stopped in his tracks, pondering how to refuse.
"...We'll see, I'll come when I have time."
Refuse my ass!
Zhou Yuan asked himself: Was the feel of the controls not good?
It was absolutely awesome!
Let's fight!
He walked down the street, making plans for the day.
Money has to be spent, so I went on a shopping spree this morning, did a live stream with Gui Naifen this afternoon, and went to see Huanlong tonight. Sigh, what a busy yet simple day.
He even took time out of his busy schedule to check on the main storyline's progress.
Zhou Yuan: "What are you guys doing right now?"
In order not to discourage Xing, Zhou Yuan did not reveal his "trivial" daily routine.
Xing: "Looking for Kafka, using a poodle."
She sent me a photo of March 7th holding a "Shih dog".
The lion dog is naturally Di Ting, which looks like a lion dance about the size of a football and is very cute.
"Excellent, you have all worked hard and made great contributions. I will reward you handsomely." Zhou Yuan revealed part of his wealth by transferring one million credits to Xing.
Xing: "!!!! Thank you so much, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, isn't the national treasury in deficit? How come there's so much silver out of nowhere?"
Frankly, celebrities are quite wealthy these days, but how can you expect someone who enjoys rummaging through trash cans to do something as unyielding as not having to compromise their principles for money?
She immediately bent down to cooperate with Zhou Yuan's acting.
Zhou Yuan: "I'm currently carrying bricks on a construction site, working day and night."
Xing Da Bei sent a 30-second message: "Your Majesty, please take good care of your health! Your Majesty, please be careful..."
"Why did you stop talking?" Zhou Yuan replied.
Xing chuckled: "Your Majesty, the services to come will cost extra."
"..." Zhou Yuan remained silent, then changed the subject, "Remember to let me know if you catch Kafka, there will be a generous reward."
"No problem, Your Majesty!"
Xing readily agreed and immediately sold out her "mother".
......
When it comes to spending money, the first thing that comes to Zhou Yuan's mind is playing the Imperial Jade Cards. As a type of card that looks very similar to mahjong, Zhou Yuan has always been curious about whether its gameplay is the same as mahjong.
At this time, the connection between Xingchahai and Changletian was not yet blocked. Zhou Yuan paid some credits and quickly arrived at the Luofu Entertainment Center via Xingchahai.
He searched for a while in the chess and card room in Changletian and found the short girl with blue hair.
She was dressed in a green robe and white skirt, her fair legs bare, and she was constantly tapping her head with her hands.
Clearly, they've encountered a problem.
Zhou Yuan was about to step forward to greet him, wondering how to get involved, when he saw the man in the vest with his back to him suddenly turn around as if sensing something and look at him.
"Holy crap," Zhou Yuan couldn't help but swear when he saw the familiar man in front of him, "Dude, you...you're here on vacation in Xianzhou too?"
