Chapter 459 - Yearning (2/2)

When they heard that Su Ping was nineteen… Everyone, including the Vice Chairman, first gasped and then burst into laughter. They found Su Ping very humorous and narcissistic.

A 19-year-old top trainer?

Who are you trying to kid?

Anyways, a humorous man would always be liked.

After this “joke,” the top trainers were even more willing to befriend Su Ping, someone who was approachable.

Because of their reaction, Su Ping also felt that apart from being able to say nice words, those top trainers were quite funny as well

In half a day, Su Ping’s name was known all across the headquarters of the Trainers a.s.sociation.

The first ones to hear about the name were the top trainers. They knew that they were welcoming a new member. But they had yet to find out what was that new member’s field of study.

Afterward, the master trainers learned about Su Ping as well. Apart from the master trainers who had met Su Ping, the others had heard about the new top trainer as well and that he was from another base city. The new one was able to wield both the pen and the gun: the top trainer was also a powerful t.i.tled battle pet warrior.

That was a fact. However, as more people heard it, they started to treat the fact as a piece of rumor.

But Su Ping’s fame was still spread.

As for the other regular trainers, they heard about a new top trainer. They didn’t even know the name, but that didn’t stop them from discussing the new one heatedly.

After all, the birth of a top trainer would stir up a great sensation, even in the Holy Light Base City!

Every year, the base city would witness the birth of one or two master trainers but the top trainers were still few and far between.

In the evening

s.h.i.+ Haochi went back home.

“Dad, are you alone?”

Zhenxiang ran to the door when she heard her dad arrive. She couldn’t help but look behind s.h.i.+ Haochi. However, she didn’t see Su Ping.

“What?”

s.h.i.+ Haochi said grumpily, “Of course. What? Do you think I’m coming home with a stepmom for you?”

His wife pa.s.sed away early. Throughout the years, he had been toiling and moiling to raise his two daughters.

“Humph!”

Zhenxiang rolled her eyes. She knew that her dad was just making fun of her. She and Tongtong didn’t mind their dad finding a better half but he was never up for it.

“What I meant to ask is, where is that guy?” Zhenxiang rephrased her question. s.h.i.+ Haochi realized she was talking about Su Ping. What happened in the day came rus.h.i.+ng back to his mind. So many things had happened that he couldn’t even digest all the information. Exhausted, s.h.i.+ Haochi answered, “The Vice Chairman has arranged accommodation for him. He no longer needs to come here. Besides, he is a top trainer; living here is beneath him.”

Zhenxiang was disappointed. Spiritless, she went back to the living room.

Tongtong heard the conversation as well and the disappointment in her eyes couldn’t be concealed. “That’s for the best. No one wants him here.”

s.h.i.+ Haochi smiled. His two girls were bad liars. “He has shown you that beyond an able man is always another able man. You were always proud about your talents. Now you know what a talent is like. Work hard. If you want to see him, you can. He lives in the Longjiang Base City. I know his address.

“When you’re free, you can go there for a trip and visit him. To befriend someone like him will never be a mistake.”

“Longjiang?” The two girls committed that name to their memories. That was the first time that they had developed an interest in a base city outside the Holy Light Base City.

Su Ping came from that base city. What was it like?
