308 Encountering Luo Lan again (1/2)

When Yang Xiaojin heard that Ren Xiaosu wanted to make arrangements for Wang Yuchi and the other students to attend university, she thought for a moment and said, \”Even I can't directly approve their admission into school. However, I can arrange for them to take the entrance exams in three months' time.\”

\”That's fine too,\” Ren Xiaosu said.

Wang Yuchi asked, \”Monitor, aren't you also going to attend university?\”

Ren Xiaosu hesitated for a moment before saying, \”You guys can attend first.\”

Although he was very eager to learn, he knew what he was capable of. Even if he studied with all his might for the three remaining months until the exams, it would be impossible for him to qualify for university!

Unless he grinded his quests every day after getting into the stronghold and got his hands on more Basic Skill Duplication Scrolls, he would not be able to copy Yang Xiaojin's knowledge of mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

When Ren Xiaosu thought of those messed-up skills that Yang Xiaojin had, he felt that it would definitely be a tedious process.

Suddenly, Ren Xiaosu noticed a gold shop on the side of the street in the stronghold and wondered if the Li and Qing currencies had also depreciated here. If that were the case, he could do that thing again.

Even though he could not spend it outside, he could still keep it and use it to pay for items from the palace in the future.

Along the way, Ren Xiaosu heard the clacking of mahjong tiles being shuffled coming from the buildings next to the street. He was stunned. \”What's that sound?\”

Yang Xiaojin replied, \”Oh, they're playing mahjong.\”

\”There's that many people playing mahjong?\” Ren Xiaosu was surprised.

When they arrived at the place Yang Xiaojin had prepared for them, she excused herself as she had a lot of matters to deal with after being away from the stronghold for so long.

Before she left, Yang Xiaojin said, \”Please bear with this place for the time being. I'll help you get another residence as soon as possible.\”

Ren Xiaosu was quite satisfied when he saw the house came with a yard. \”It's fine. I find it pretty nice here.\”

As soon as Ren Xiaosu and the others entered the yard, they saw Luo Lan's large head peeking out over the wall and observing them secretly. Ren Xiaosu was tickled. \”What are you doing?\”

Luo Lan exclaimed when he realized it was Ren Xiaosu, \”You all got arrested too?\”

Ren Xiaosu said calmly, \”You've misunderstood. We aren't in the same situation as you.\”

Someone was even whispering behind the wall, \”Boss, who did you see? Can we also take a look?\”

Luo Lan snapped, \”What's there to look at? Keep holding me up!\”

\”Boss, you're really too heavy….\”

Ren Xiaosu's eyes twitched a little. So Luo Lan was able to lean over the wall because he had someone holding him up.

However, it seemed that Luo Lan and his men were still in quite a good state of mind. Ren Xiaosu asked, \”Aren't you being confined right now? But you don't look depressed at all.\”

Luo Lan said without a care, \”The Yang Consortium won't do anything to me. A fatty that's alive is worth more than a dead one. Besides, I'm used to being confined because of Stronghold 111.\”

\”You sound rather optimistic.\” Ren Xiaosu curled his lips. \”Have you heard about it yet? Qing Zhen has successfully taken control of the Qing Consortium. Congratulations.\”

Luo Lan nearly burst into tears at the words. \”Fuck, I'm fucking done for this time. The Yang Consortium will definitely not let me go anymore.\”
