Chapter 163: IT Exper (1/2)
The next day, He Yi and Murong Mingyue were already waiting in their cars at the bottom floor of the apartment building before the sun had even risen yet.
I suggested that we should dress ourselves formally, so all the guys wore black suits with ties. Gui Guzi’s tie was too tight, so when he asked me a question he looked as red as a tomato. “Boss, why the heck are we dressing up like we’re going on an interview?”
“Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls have dozens of professional players already, and since we’re the ‘standing army’ it stands to reason that we look the part. You don’t want them to think that you’re part of the cleanup crew, do you?”
Gui Guzi pointed at Beiming Xue. “Even so, it doesn’t make sense for Lil Beiming to dress up like a hostess…”
I turned around and looked at Beiming Xue. The girl was wearing a one-piece dress that stopped short just above the knees and an office uniform that clung tightly to her chest and abdomen. They outlined her growing body perfectly, her round, shapely butt especially so.
I kept calm and said, “She looks more formal this way. Plus, doesn’t it look great on her? Do you like them, Beiming?”
Beiming Xue nodded. “I do! But boss, the bra is seriously too small. It’s a bit suffocating to be honest.”
“Endure it. I heard that a financial crisis is coming our way, so any cloth we can save will contribute to the construction of our country!”
“...”
…...
He Yi was still driving her sports car, but Murong Mingyue had driven over a minivan. It was the perfect vehicle to tow our luggages, although it gave her the appearance of a worker of a moving company.
Gui Guzi, Du Thirteen, and Yamete were unscrupulous men, so their belongings weighed less than 5 kg, including gaming helmet, that alone weighed 2.5 kg. My luggage was a little more normal and weighed around 10 kg. But our luggage was nothing compared to Beiming Xue’s... Hers weighed 100 kg in total.
Down the stairs, Murong Mingyue’s mouth fell open in astonishment as she loaded our belongings into the minivan.
“Beiming Xue, you have so much stuff~”
“Yes, sister Mingyue~~”
“What is this? An aeroplane chess? A nylon divine beast? Even a frying pan? Whoa, why are carrying these with you…” Murong Mingyue felt like vomiting blood just looking at the random assortment of items.
Beiming Xue explained, “The aeroplane chess is for brother Gui Guzi, it’ll do wonders for his IQ. The divine beast Caonima is for brother Du Thirteen, and the frying pan is for boss so he can cook noodles during the night…”
Murong Mingyue nearly fainted from the incredible explanation. Hoping to find someone with a more normal luggage, she picked up a small bag that belonged to Yamete and poured out its contents. It turned out that the bag was filled with erotic CDs; the complete works of Sora Aoi, Kaede Matsushima and more!
I picked up a couple of CDs and nodded seriously. “But he does work in the IT industry. He’s a salesman of the IT industry to be exact…”
“You call selling pornographic CDs working in the IT industry?”
“Of course. By the way, you can buy 0.5 kg worth of porn for just 5 RMB. Would you like to round up that number and buy a kilogram off my hands?”
Murong Mingyue looked absolutely livid. She was about to give me a piece of her mind when He Yi walked in on us and saw the CDs. At first she was surprised, but she quickly recovered and smiled at me. “Is there anything here that you would like to recommend me, Lu Chen?”
Yamete, Gui Guzi and Du Thirteen pretended to vomit blood in unison.
After all the luggages were loaded into the minivan, Murong Mingyue took off with my subordinates. I was the only one who received the emperor’s treatment and had my boss drive me to our new accommodation herself.
As the car moved slowly toward our destination, I watched the bustling streets outside the window and smiled a little. “Boss, do you still remember the first time I became your passenger?”
He Yi nodded. “Yeah, that was a close one. Thank goodness no lives were lost that day.”
Her wording caught me off-guard. Did He Yi not know that I was dead at the time, and that I was alive now only because the virus had resurrected my cells? Well, that’s fine too. I would prefer that she never learned about this.
“That car was totaled, wasn’t it?”
“Yeah, it was…” He Yi said regretfully before pressing her lips together. “Ten million RMB gone just like that. After that, I applied for a new car from the company and got this…”
I shouted “WTF!” inside my head before turning to look at her shoulder. “How are your injuries? Do you want me to drive?”
He Yi tilted her head to the side and smiled. “Is that okay?”
“Of course!”
“Alright then.”
He Yi parked the car beside the road before unfastened her seat belt. She got out of the car and walked to the front passenger seat while I climbed over to the driver’s seat.
The car hummed steadily and strongly as I drove it back on the road once more. I easily caught up with Murong Mingyue’s minivan. “Damn! What an amazing car. I’ve got to buy one after I earn some cash…”
He Yi giggled. “You want it? I can give it to you as a gift~~”
I side-eyed her and turned down the offer. “No way, I don’t want to be called a gigolo!”
“Don’t worry, you look nothing like a gigolo at all…”
“...”
“...Why am I not happy to hear that?”
He Yi let out a snort before leaning into the passenger seat and sighing. “It feels good to have someone to rely on…”
