Chapter 83 Dongxing City [Angel Medicine] Mission
Chapter 83 Dongxing City [Angel Medicine] Mission
Zhang Lingyun felt somewhat helpless and could only sit up straight.
Xia Youran quickly straightened his clothes and buttoned up his shirt.
Then, Zhang Lingyun answered the video call.
On the screen, Zhang's mother's face with a face mask on appeared again.
"Sweetie, what are you doing? Why is your face covered in sweat?"
Zhang Lingyun wiped his face and said:
"I was playing a game just now, and I almost got to fight the boss."
Xia Youran sat to the side and couldn't help but punch him twice.
When Zhang's mother saw this, she said:
"You Ran is here too."
Xia Youran shrank back again.
Zhang Lingyun continued:
"We just teamed up to play together. I was the marksman, and she was the healer."
Xia Youran thought this guy was really shameless.
She couldn't hold back any longer and kicked him in the face twice more.
Mrs. Zhang smiled.
She still quite liked Xia Youran.
The main reason is that this girl is so beautiful; it makes me feel proud to take her out.
Moreover, she has no family left, so there is no need to prepare a dowry of 388,000.
But Zhang's mother had no idea.
Her son has already spent millions on her.
Now, Zhang's mother is a little worried.
My son has become unusually popular.
Don't try to have your cake and eat it too, or you'll end up losing everything.
Zhang Lingyun patted Xia Youran, asking her to get him a drink.
Then Zhang's mother asked:
"Mom, is something the matter?"
"There is a small matter I'd like you to visit Dongxing City."
Dongxing City is located next to Green Island City; it is a satellite city that is a lower-tier city.
Zhang Lingyun asked with some confusion:
"What are you going there for?"
"Your cousin is going over there for her graduate school interview, and I'd like you to go and help her out."
"My cousin? Which cousin?"
Xia Youran took a can of Monster Energy and handed it to Zhang Lingyun.
She had originally intended to read a book, but upon hearing her cousin being mentioned, she sat down cautiously.
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said:
"Have you gone crazy from studying too much? Your distant cousin from your hometown is going to start her master's program this year."
If it weren't for you, she would have the highest magic power in both of our families. But now, she's far behind you.
When Zhang's mother got to this point, she clearly had a sense of superiority about her.
Zhang Lingyun searched his memory and indeed found such a girl.
"Oh! Chen Xiaoya, right?"
"Yes, do you remember? You used to play together a lot."
Zhang Lingyun thought about it for a moment and felt that there was nothing much going on recently, and Dongxing City wasn't far away.
"I see."
"Alright, then you can go tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll ask for leave."
After finishing discussing business, Zhang's mother asked again:
"Do you and You Ran have enough living expenses?"
That's enough.
"I'm a little worried, let me transfer you some more money."
After chatting for a few more minutes, Zhang's mother transferred two thousand yuan to Zhang Lingyun.
Zhang Lingyun easily spent one million when buying magic potions this afternoon.
Looking at those two thousand yuan now, I really don't feel anything at all.
But this is a mother's heartfelt gesture, and it cannot be measured by numbers alone.
So he clicked the accept button and sent a few corny gratitude emojis.
After Zhang Lingyun finished his call, Xia Youran began to torture him.
She gently tugged at one of his ears and asked:
"What cousin? Explain yourself."
Zhang Lingyun shook his head helplessly and said:
"Stop fooling around, it really is my cousin."
"Who knows if you're telling the truth or not? You even tell other people I'm your cousin."
"This is true."
Zhang Lingyun pushed Xia Youran's hand away and prepared to ask Lan Ruoxi for leave.
But to his surprise, Lan Ruoxi called first.
Lan Ruoxi's cool voice rang out:
"Zhang Lingyun, I have something for you to do."
"Okay, Master, you can tell me. I guarantee I'll complete the mission."
"The 'Angel Drug' has been discovered in Dongxing City. Go and take a look tomorrow."
Zhang Lingyun frowned, feeling that all these matters were piled up at once.
Fortunately, both events occurred in Dongxing City, allowing him to do both at the same time.
"No problem, Master."
Lan Ruoxi reminded her again:
"Don't be too careless, and don't be as reckless as last time. If you find any problems, contact the Dongxing branch of the Golden Rose Society."
"Oh, so we have a branch office. That makes things even easier."
Lan Ruoxi's tone suddenly became urgent as she said:
"Seriously! Don't you know what 'better safe than sorry' means? I've discovered you're even more arrogant than I am."
Zhang Lingyun scratched his head, feeling like he was on the other end of the phone.
It was difficult to observe Lan Ruoxi's expression, and there was no way to massage her calves.
Therefore, he suddenly lost his frame of reference and didn't know how to flatter anyone.
Lan Ruoxi then added:
"Don't go alone, find someone to go with you."
"Should I ask my senior sister?"
"Your senior sister has other tasks."
"Then who should I contact?"
Lan Ruoxi snorted coldly and said:
"Do you think your master is a fool? Didn't you go to the nursing home with a companion last time?"
Zhang Lingyun swallowed hard, thinking to himself that nothing could be hidden from his master after all.
I just don't know if Lan Ruoxi knows that the person is Ding Shuangshuang?
Lan Ruoxi asked again:
"You two going together shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Zhang Lingyun quickly replied:
"No problem."
"Very good. I will give you a high rating in the Golden Rose Society's records."
After hanging up with Lan Ruoxi, Zhang Lingyun immediately called Ding Shuangshuang.
Are you free tomorrow?
Ding Shuangshuang replied:
I have an interview tomorrow.
Zhang Lingyun was stunned for a moment.
The word "interview" seems completely out of place for Ding Shuangshuang.
"With your looks, how can you even find a job?"
"What else can I do? Can you support me?"
"It's not impossible."
Zhang Lingyun had just finished speaking when Xia Youran kicked him.
Zhang Lingyun grabbed her little feet and gently stroked them.
Ding Shuangshuang paused for a moment before saying:
"Let's forget about it. If our relationship is exposed, my mother will be implicated too."
Zhang Lingyun then asked:
Why do you go to work?
"I'm a senior in college now. The sale of [Angel Drug] has stopped, and even if it had, I wouldn't want to do it anymore. So, I need to find a way to support my family and take care of my mother."
"Do you think Huang Ku will let you go? Didn't he want to keep you as an accomplice?"
"Huang Ku seems to be afraid of someone. He has now retreated into his shell and is not asking about anything outside."
Zhang Lingyun thought for a moment and said:
"Then I'll try to find you a job later."
"Really? Thank you so much."
"You're welcome. After all, I'm your dad."
"Get out of here."
After Zhang Lingyun hung up the phone, he saw Xia Youran glaring at him.
He quickly explained:
"I'm doing serious business."
Xia Youran said with a forced smile:
"I didn't say no, so why are you so guilty?"
Zhang Lingyun gave an awkward smile:
"That's good."
Xia Youran said sarcastically:
"Of course it would be great! Going on a business trip with a beautiful senior, having a blast fighting dragons the whole way, how could that not be great?"
