59: Trying to play dirty tricks on me? Fine! Here I come!
Early morning.
Chen Yang got up early to run, drenched in sweat.
He was trying to improve his strength through exercise.
Seeing the horizontal bar, he went up and did a few reps.
Ever since he learned about the strength levels of martial artists.
He developed a type of...
...Insufficient Strength Phobia.
He wanted to use every method possible to boost his combat power.
But—
He was a cheat!
He could increase his combat power just by using points.
What good was running?
Moreover, he hadn't drawn a cultivation secret technique yet.
Practicing hard day and night.
Was equivalent to... practicing for nothing.
Working out was purely for psychological comfort.
However.
When he ran a lap around the villa district wearing his sportswear.
He did attract the fervent gazes of many young beauties, charming young married women, and lonely beautiful wives.
That steel-plate-like, solid chest.
His eight-pack abs.
Made people unable to resist secretly drooling.
Returning to the villa, he took a shower.
He changed into a set of newly bought clothes, looking especially energetic.
When he arrived at the restaurant.
Xiaoyue had already arrived and was having breakfast with Liu Sisi.
"Brother Yang, you look so handsome today!"
Xiaoyue offered her flattery.
Liu Sisi's eyes also lit up.
You get what you pay for.
Wearing this new set of clothes immediately changed his demeanor significantly.
He had the air of a dashing young gentleman.
Chen Yang glanced at Xiaoyue.
He smiled and praised her:
"Not bad, our Xiaoyue is getting cuter and cuter!"
He sat down at the dining table and began to enjoy his breakfast.
"Sisi, do you have any plans for today?"
Liu Sisi looked at him.
"I don't."
"Why? ...Do you have something planned today?"
Chen Yang took a sip of his porridge.
"I have a class reunion today. If you don't have anything to do, just stay home."
"If you run around outside, I won't feel at ease."
Pfft!
Xiaoyue, who was beside them, suddenly burst out laughing.
A mouthful of milk sprayed all over Chen Yang's new clothes.
Liu Sisi was startled.
Xiaoyue also panicked.
The two beauties, one older and one younger, both grabbed tissues.
They both rushed over to wipe Chen Yang clean.
They frantically patted and rubbed him all over.
Chen Yang blushed and waved his hand.
He laughed awkwardly:
"Xiaoyue, what suddenly got into you?"
"Could it be... you're jealous that my clothes are too handsome?"
Xiaoyue opened her wide eyes, full of apology.
"I'm sorry!"
"Just now... I thought what you said was funny, you seemed to treat Sister Sisi like a child, and I couldn't help but spray..."
Chen Yang rubbed his temples.
"It seems the fault lies with me."
He got up and went upstairs.
"Forget it!"
"I originally wanted to show off a bit, dress handsomely, and go see my old classmates."
"Now it seems."
"It's better to be low-key."
Xiaoyue felt even worse.
"Brother Yang, I'm truly sorry..."
"How about? ...I'll pay for your clothes..."
Chen Yang quickly interrupted her.
"Little girl, what are you saying?"
"It's really nothing!"
Liu Sisi's heart stirred.
"Are there going to be a lot of female classmates at your reunion?"
"Is your first love going to be there?"
Chen Yang looked at her in confusion.
"Why would you say that?"
Liu Sisi smiled:
"I rarely see you dress up so formally, there must be a reason!"
Chen Yang neither confirmed nor denied it.
He just shook his head and went upstairs to change clothes.
Xiaoyue looked at Liu Sisi with a mournful expression.
"Sister Sisi, look at me, I messed up again!"
Liu Sisi, however, smiled.
"It's fine, you... did a good job!"
Xiaoyue was stunned.
"Huh? ..."
But Liu Sisi didn't say anything more.
Soon.
Chen Yang came downstairs wearing a set of ordinary clothes.
It was still early.
He didn't set off immediately.
Instead, he took out his phone and started calling people one by one.
Tomorrow was the housewarming banquet.
Up until now, he hadn't notified who should attend.
If he delayed any further, it would be rude.
There was no rush regarding his parents; he would pick them up himself tomorrow.
Han Feixue and Feng Danqing.
They were both on-site organizers and didn't need notifying.
Liu Changhe and Xu Wenqing.
It wouldn't be too late to tell them when they met today.
Lilac had already been informed.
Liu Sisi and Xiaoyue both knew.
Black Tiger had also been informed.
As for Wang Xiaoya... judging by Black Tiger's meaning, she probably wasn't coming.
Only Li Jie's family and Bai Yuyan remained who hadn't been notified.
Chen Yang immediately called Bai Yuyan.
He invited her to the housewarming banquet tomorrow.
And he entrusted her to help buy a wheelchair of better quality.
For his father to use tomorrow.
Bai Yuyan naturally agreed readily.
She had always been responsive to Chen Yang's requests.
Recently, Chen Yang had been quite busy.
It was Bai Yuyan who had been helping look after his parents.
He was very touched!
The last call was to Li Jie.
When Li Jie heard about it, he was delighted!
He immediately offered his congratulations and promised to bring his wife and son to attend.
"Brother Jie, I won't notify your uncle and aunt."
"After all, your uncle's status is extraordinary."
"This is a small matter for us, so there's no need to disturb the old man."
Li Jie laughed:
"Alright, I respect your opinion."
"Tomorrow, we'll catch up when we meet. You must have a few extra drinks with me."
Chen Yang readily agreed.
Tomorrow's housewarming banquet would definitely be lively.
He got into the wrangler.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Yang got out of the car again.
Never mind, better be low-key!
If someone suspected he rented the car just to show off, that would be embarrassing.
He took a taxi to the Shanhai Grand Hotel.
While sitting in the car.
"Check today's intelligence."
[Ding!]
[Today's intelligence refreshed!]
[Intelligence 1]: Huang Sanjin has held a grudge ever since his driver's license was revoked that day. Today's class reunion is sponsored by Huang Sanjin and initiated by Bai Xiaoyue. There is only one purpose: to target you.
[Intelligence 2]: Today at the Shanhai Grand Hotel, you will encounter a wealthy businessman who suddenly suffers a heart attack and is in critical condition. Upgrading the Soul-Captivating Hand can save him.
[Intelligence 3]: Today at the Shanhai Grand Hotel, there will be a small Antique Auction. A spy has infiltrated the crowd, attempting to purchase an antique and send it back to Japan.
Seeing the first piece of intelligence.
Chen Yang sneered inwardly.
No wonder Xue Song called and actively invited him.
So this reunion was being held for him!
Huang Sanjin!
Bai Xiaoyue!
You two are truly dedicated!
You must have been planning this reunion for a long time, right?
What kind of mine did you bury for me?
Can it blow me up?
Too bad—
The intelligence didn't reveal what their specific plan was.
He only knew that Xue Song was their main operative.
And played a critical role in this scheme.
Vile people are everywhere, and hidden arrows strike from the unseen.
This trip.
Was destined to be troublesome; it was better to be cautious!
The second piece of intelligence was a bit special.
There had never been intelligence about saving someone before.
What did this mean this time?
Was it purely for sending him points?
Surely not?
The third piece of intelligence was extremely important.
A spy had infiltrated the Dragon Nation, trying to fish in troubled waters and take their national treasure back to Japan.
The little devils, dreaming big!
Watch how I play you to death!
In an instant.
Chen Yang had finished reading the intelligence.
He took out his phone and called Han Feixue.
"Feixue, there's something, can you do me a favor?"
Han Feixue rolled her eyes through the phone.
"Young Master, have you ordered me around... too few times?"
"Spit it out, what is it?"
Chen Yang chuckled apologetically:
"I heard there's an Antique Auction at the Shanhai Grand Hotel today."
"Can you get me an entry ticket?"
Han Feixue thought for a moment.
"It shouldn't be difficult, I'll try."
With the arrangements settled.
Chen Yang wiped his face and braced himself.
For certain people, and certain matters.
It was time for a conclusion at today's reunion!
Let's see who... plays the flashier games? Or has the tougher methods?
