When Dong Bo Tong sent Jin Xing Tian off, Qin Qing, who hadn't said anything, said with concern, ”Husband, are you really planning on breaking through to the First Grade tomorrow?”
”Who said I was going to fight with my life on the line? I'm just saying that my performance tomorrow will satisfy him.” Li Xun chuckled as he lightly scratched Qin Qing's nose.
”But …”
”Qing Er, you're still too kind. Have you ever thought about why we want to risk our lives for him? Could it be that all of this is because of those defensive equipment, for those two million purple coins?” Do we really have to? Moreover, this Jin Xingtian is very strange. He seems to have a lot of confidence in me. When I was negotiating the terms with him, he agreed so readily. Don't you think so? ”
”Husband, that's why I don't understand why you have to agree to his request.”
”Wait, it seems like Uncle Dong is here.”
Sure enough, Dong Bo Tong came back to see Li Xun right after sending Jin Xing Tian off. At this moment, his face was filled with worry.
”Li Xun, it can't be that you really plan to use your life to gamble, right?”
”Uncle Dong, I've already promised him. Since I've already accepted the items, I naturally have to satisfy him.”
”How confident are you?”
”To be honest, I don't even have a ten percent chance of success. I don't even know how strong the opponent will be after they use the secret technique, nor do I know if they have any other trump cards.” Li Xun spread out his hands. Although he spoke with difficulty, his tone was indifferent.
He didn't know why Li Xu had said this, so he said: ”Child, why didn't you say so back then? I thought you were very confident, but how about this, hand these six pieces of protective gear over to me, and I'll return them to you. I believe Jin Xingtian won't make things difficult for me.”
”Uncle Dong, I understand that you have a promise. I will do what I promised Senior Jin. You should rest early.”
”Ai, based on Uncle Dong's words, my life is the most important.” Dong Bo Tong did not say anything else and left helplessly.
After Dong Bo Tong left, Li Xun turned off the light. He did not sleep on the bench as he usually did. Instead, he went to Qin Qing's bed. The two of them snuggled up to each other. Li Xun took a deep breath of Qin Qing's fragrant hair and felt a wave of comfort in his heart.
”Qing'er, Uncle Dong treats us quite well. For him to say the last sentence means that his heart is with us.”
”Didn't Uncle Dong always treat us well?”
”Some people, some things, can't just be on the surface.” After all, Li Xun had been working in the shopping mall for two years, so he had seen a lot of business. With the old man and the other strange people's tutelage, he could naturally figure out a lot of problems. Previously, his conversation with Dong Botong was mostly flippant, but it finally came to an end. Otherwise, he would never return to the Dong Clan after the convention. Why did Jin Xingtian come? Li Xun felt that there must be more to it and he did not want Dong Bo Tong to be involved in it.
”Husband, didn't you have something to say to me before?”
Even if we lose, we cannot let the other party off easy. I think that if those few people from the Rushing Thunder Sword Sect really use a secret technique to fight me, then even if they win, they will become useless in the future. So, this is to say that the other party is also doing their best. Actually, I only agreed to his request after hearing that there was a piece of special defensive equipment. That special armor is just right for you right now. ”
She didn't think that Li Xun would actually take the risk for her own sake. For a moment, all sorts of feelings flowed through her, and her eyes also moistened, as she buried her beautiful face in Li Xun's chest, tightly hugging Li Xun's body, and said: ”Husband, you … you treat me so well, but I don't want you to take the risk.”
”Didn't I tell him to be satisfied and not say to fight to the death? He also didn't tell me to fight to the death. Jin Xingtian is an old man, how could he not hear me? So we'll have no burden at all tomorrow. Besides, you forgot that I still have the Golden Orb of Destiny. ”
”Husband, I understand. Un, just carry me to sleep for the night, okay? ” Qin Qing scolded.
”Okay, if I can't control myself, you have to remind me.” Li Xun felt that he was absolutely the most difficult man in the world.
