Chapter 294: Energy System Test, Feng Wuhen’s Astonishmen (1/2)

Looking at Wu Chi kneeling in front of him, Bai Xiaofei felt a kind of panic he’d never felt before.

“The heck?! If you don't get the f*ck up, I’m leaving!”

This ceremonious action was so much for Bai Xiaofei that his head stopped functioning for a moment. There was gold under every man’s knees1, and this was the kind of gold Bai Xiaofei couldn’t afford!

“Brother Fei, hear me out first, okay?” With rare stubbornness in his eyes, for the first time, Wu Chi refused to comply with Bai Xiaofei.

“Then stand up and say it!” Bai Xiaofei wanted to pull Wu Chi up, but the latter was dead set on resisting. In the end, Bai Xiaofei compromised, “30 seconds. If you don't stand up in 30 seconds, don't ever see me again!”

Hearing this, Wu Chi's eyes immediately shone and his usually witless mouth instantly turned into a machine gun.

“Brother Fei, I don't know what to say to express my gratitude, but from now on, my life will be yours, completely. If you want me to go east, I will never go west. Whoever you want me to beat up, I will beat them to near death!” Speaking until here, Wu Chi suddenly got stuck despite his excitement and the fact that he still nursed a full belly of words to say.

Yet, no matter what, he couldn't voice anything. Excitement didn’t enrich one's lexicon, illiteracy was just that scary!

“30 seconds is up,” announced Bai Xiaofei indifferently as he looked at Wu Chi in a way that allowed no opposition.

The next second, Wu Chi sprang up because if he didn’t, he might just be down on the floor for the rest of today.

“Stop all that nonsense, damn it. Thank the stars that there is no one else around, or else if I’d become the public focus again. You think I don’t have enough trouble already?” Bai Xiaofei slapped Wu Chi heavily on the head. Wu Chi foolishly smiled and didn’t say a word to rebut.

In fact, he wanted to, but he dared not. Moreover, he didn't know how to put it in words. There were too few people who could outspeak Bai Xiaofei.

“Let's go, time to buy puppets for our idiot puppet master.”

Casting Wu Chi a glare, Bai Xiaofei walked towards the stairs. Feng Wuhen followed with a chuckle. Still with a big smile on his face, Wu Chi was quick to react this time and didn’t fall behind, only that his face wasn’t very pretty-looking while smiling right after just bawling like that.

Just as the trio was walking upstairs, the receptionist just now was leading a mustached downstairs, seeming to be in quite a hurry. They were apparently surprised upon seeing the trio.

“Brother Wei.” Feng Wuhen broke the awkward atmosphere with an embarrassed smile.

The person in front was the president of the Ethereal Pavilion branch in Starnet – Wei Feng.

“Are you returning?” With a hint of displeasure in his tone, Wei Feng looked at Feng Wuhen plaintively, the kind of look that a wife would give her husband when he didn't come home for a long time.

“I'm just here to buy something, I have no other intention,” said Feng Wuhen as his expression gradually relaxed. As Bai Xiaofei had said, he had to face the Ethereal Pavilion sooner or later.

“You’re not here to cause a ruckus either, right?”

Wei Feng’s question brought a pained smile to Feng Wuhen’s face.

Cause a ruckus? Are you for real?

“We’re really just here to buy puppets,” Feng Wuhen emphasized as his expression faltered a little. Wei Feng noticed this and immediately laughed out loud.
