Chapter 293: Here Comes Wu Chi the Puppet Master! (1/2)

His face horrified, Wu Chi swallowed the last bite with regretful eyes as if he had done something utterly unforgivable.

Grade eight pills were something he couldn’t afford to eat! Even his life wasn’t enough to pay for them!

“You already ate them, it's no use regretting it now,” Bai Xiaofei said with a sleazy smile, then turned to Feng Wuhen with doubt. “There’s no reaction at all. They didn't give me fake pills, did they?”

“How is that possible? Even if you don't believe Qian Chonglou, you should believe me. There’s no way I would misidentify them,” replied Feng aloofly, his face full of confidence. “The mild nature of the Concentration Pills is no exaggeration. He won’t feel any change until he links with a puppet.”

As the two discussed calmly, Wu Chi was already completely dumbfounded.

Did I hear it right? Concentration Pills?! Those godly pills that the teacher talked about?!

Have I really become a puppet master?!

Wu Chi looked down at his hands in disbelief. He seemed like he no longer recognized himself.

“Then, we’ll visit the Ethereal Pavilion after the meal.” Bai Xiaofei looked smilingly at the senior sister coming towards their table with the food.

Regarding Bai Xiaofei as their little Money God, all the senior sisters working here had been missing him as he hadn’t come by in a long time. Moreover, his status was completely different from before. In addition to bringing a wave of income, Bai Xiaofei also made them feel like they were seeing a celebrity.

However, Bai Xiaofei never thought of himself as such. The way he ate remained unchanged – wolfing down the food voraciously.

Wu Chi was basically stock-still during the entire meal, looking at his hands in a daze. All he could think about was whether what the other two had just said was true and if the Concentration Pills had actually worked on him…

In short, Wu Chi was unable to remain calm. If he really became a puppet master, then his life would welcome earthshaking changes.

With my Heavenly Origin Physique, that would mean I’ll reach the sky in a single bound!

While Wu Chi was imagining his glorious future, a full and satisfied Bai Xiaofei let out a big burp.

“Let's go and check what level our Puppet Master Wu Chi has reached!” Bai Xiaofei said and stood up.

At this moment, Feng Wuhen revealed a strained expression. He hadn’t talked to the president when he left and now he was going to return right the next day. This felt somewhat inappropriate.

“Brother Feng, you’ll have to face the Ethereal Pavilion sooner or later. It’s not like you won’t buy any more puppets for the rest of your life.”

And the Ethereal Pavilion was always the most authoritative in selling puppets.

“You're right, I just haven't completely recovered from everything that’s happened.” With a wry smile, Feng Wuhen also stood up while their conversation left Wu Chi in confusion.

What do you mean? Isn't he the manager of the Ethereal Pavilion? What can stop him from going back?!

Poor Wu Chi couldn't figure this out no matter how much he thought, and Bai Xiaofei didn’t intend to explain to him either. There was no way to explain this clearly.

“Wait for me, Brother Fei!” shouted Wu Chi when he realized that he had been left far behind. Hurriedly catching up with the team, his mind was taken over by elation.

The Ethereal Pavilion wasn’t far from the Hundred Flavor House, so the trio soon arrived at the magnificent building of destination. Upon seeing Feng Wuhen, the receptionist was obviously startled.

“Manager Feng!”

Hearing her habitual address, Feng Wuhen shook his head with a pained smile.

“I'm no longer a member of the Ethereal Pavilion, you don’t need to call me that anymore. I'm here to accompany them to buy puppets,” he said calmly as if he was already used to his new position.

Meanwhile, the receptionist panicked and didn’t know what to do.

Even if he was only her former boss, she was still scared!
