189: Chapter 189 Rewards

Twelve days, a full twelve days. Lin Fan bought tickets for his Master again and again, but the tickets were always changed to other destinations half an hour before boarding.

And his Master, who had practically flown all over the Great Northwest, still couldn't make it back to Jiangcheng. This had worn the Old Man out, and Lin Fan's meager savings were gradually shrinking.

Finally, on the third day, Great Master Xuan Zhen became anxious and traveled directly by Internal Energy, rushing for ten days. He finally arrived in Jiangcheng by asking for directions.

When Lin Fan saw his Master, covered in dust and looking disheveled: ..."Master, I've finally waited for you! The flowers I've waited for have all withered!"

Great Master Xuan Zhen, seeing Lin Fan, suppressed the urge to slap him to death. "Hmph, take me to where you're living now."

A hint of awkwardness appeared on Lin Fan's face, and Great Master Xuan Zhen snorted coldly, "What, I specifically came out of seclusion to help you with your Cultivation problems, and you won't even let me stay at your place?"

"No, it's not that."

Lin Fan awkwardly led Great Master Xuan Zhen to his dwelling. Upon seeing it, Great Master Xuan Zhen's eyes nearly rolled back.

A broken bridge culvert, discarded cardboard, a tattered sofa, and a worn-out quilt that had been thrown away who knows how long ago. This scene made Great Master Xuan Zhen's temples throb with anger.

"What are you doing? You live in this place? What girl would ever look at you? Not to mention the well-traveled Xiao Shang and Su Muyan, even our third Senior Sister, who grew up in the most difficult circumstances, wouldn't spare you a glance!"

Great Master Xuan Zhen's eyes showed a hint of disdain, but Lin Fan spread his hands and said, "Master, there's nothing I can do! All the money you gave me is gone. I spent hundreds and thousands buying you plane tickets, so..."

Lin Fan didn't continue, because he noticed a hint of anger on his Master's face. Well, after all the trouble, he still had to walk back.

"Hmph, take me to your Senior Sisters' house. They should give this Old Man a little face."

"Yes!"

Lin Fan secretly rejoiced. Finally, someone could rein in the Senior Sisters, and he could finally hold his head high... "President Qin, Boss Qin Yun, were you even listening to the proposal we just discussed?"

Yang Ruobing and Ye Qingge looked at Qin Yun with displeasure. These two were in charge of Qin Corporation; one was the general manager of a branch company, and the other was the executive director. They had been reporting on recent work procedures to Qin Yun since early this morning.

But those procedures went in one ear and out the other for Qin Yun, who looked half-asleep. This greatly annoyed the two beautiful women working for him.

"President Qin, if you keep this up, how can our Qin Corporation compete with those large enterprises and century-old Families in the Imperial Capital and Demon Capital? How can you be sleeping at a time like this? Also, why has Sister Yun Yan's work ethic become so lax these past few days? You must have led her astray."

Yang Ruobing's words made Qin Yun smile wryly, while Ye Qingge chimed in, "Because Jiangcheng is very close to the Demon Capital, we propose setting up the next branch company there. However, we are outsiders, and trying to get a slice of the pie will surely lead to us being ostracized. President Qin, you cannot be lazy about such important company development matters!"

Yun Yan also rubbed her forehead, "My two little sisters, haven't you thought about resting? Since returning from Sichuan last time, you've been working for over ten consecutive days. Even donkeys don't work this hard!"

Looking at Yun Yan saying this, the two girls were puzzled. "Sister Yun Yan, weren't you also one of us before? How come...?"

"Because the huge mountain pressing on me has disappeared! Originally, my hard work was due to the Family's gambling agreement, and also that huge mountain of the Tang Family. Now that the pressure is gone, I also need to enjoy life properly!"

After speaking, Yun Yan walked directly between the two, putting an arm around each of their shoulders. "Life isn't just about work. The purpose of work is to make your life better. You both should learn from Little Brother Qin Yun. Anyway, he has more money than he can spend in this lifetime, so why trap yourselves in the office? Take a proper vacation!"

Qin Yun also seized the opportunity, "Ruobing, Qingge, Shiyu just mentioned the other day that their school organized a cultural festival. Why don't you two go and participate? I remember Jiangcheng University's cultural festival is quite interesting. People sing, dance, and there are cosplay shows, all very..."

"Cosplay! I want to go, I want to go too!"

Meng Ruxin, who had slipped out from somewhere, suddenly appeared and excitedly said to Qin Yun.

Qin Yun's mouth twitched, "Now you're in your element, huh? But hold off for a few days! Your Master doesn't know when he'll arrive! If you're not here, our side will have no damage output."

Meng Ruxin scratched her head awkwardly, "Am I that amazing?"

"Look at those four. Would they dare to speak ill of their Master? It has to be you, Ruxin."

Meng Ruxin: ...Unhappy, pouting! She still wants to participate in the cultural festival!

"Don't worry, I specifically invested in this university's cultural festival. It will last for half a month, so you'll definitely have a chance to participate."

Upon hearing this, Meng Ruxin's expression softened a bit, and Qin Yun looked at Yun Yan, "Sister Yan, why don't you go stroll around with them? You don't have any plans recently, do you?"

"Is Little Brother Qin Yun arranging a vacation for me? But I'm almost thirty, isn't it a bit inappropriate to participate in these young people's activities?"

Qin Yun's face darkened, "You're only twenty-seven, right?"

"In two or three more years, I'll be thirty. Alas! Time truly is merciless!"

"I gave you all youth retention pills. Time won't leave its mark on your appearance."

"But psychological age will gradually increase! I always feel that the things I was interested in as a child turn out to be nothing special when I grow up!"

"Then take advantage of it before your mind gets old and enjoy being young one more time! Oh, right."

With that, Qin Yun directly took out three fluffy little creatures: a small snow wolf, a golden snub-nosed monkey, and a small black cat.

"This is..."

"I unexpectedly obtained these a few days ago. Since you don't have pets, I'm giving them to you. Don't underestimate them! If possible, I hope you can take them with you everywhere."

"Really? I love fluffy things the most! Thank you, Qin Yun!"

With that, Yang Ruobing directly hugged Qin Yun and then took the golden snub-nosed monkey. After all, it's quite reasonable for a business queen who loves making money to have a golden snub-nosed monkey by her side, right?

"Then I'll choose this little dog. I like dogs very much. You're thoughtful, Little Brother Qin Yun."

Yun Yan said, looking at the little wolf cub, which caused the little snow wolf to express dissatisfaction. Ye Qingge smiled and picked up her little cat.

"Its fur is so soft! It feels like its breed is much stronger than so-called noble cats and noble dogs! Qin Yun, thank you, I really love this gift."

Of course, these three were Spiritual Artifact pets obtained from a boring lottery a few days ago. After all, the three of them are so beautiful that they could easily be targeted by others. With these three Spiritual Artifact pets, at least their safety wouldn't be a concern.

Meanwhile, Meng Ruxin said enviously, "What about me? What about me? Is there nothing for me?"

"Young Miss, these three are for their self-defense. Do you need one?"

Meng Ruxin pouted, "I'm also a delicate girl!"

Qin Yun thought about it; he really didn't have anything for her right now. Wait, there seemed to be something quite suitable for her.

"This is a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact, 'Phantom Sound,' that I got before, but it's just a bell, quite different from your flute playing and zither playing, so I didn't think of it earlier."

"Who says? A bell is also a musical instrument! As long as it's a musical instrument, this girl can Master it! Thank you, Husband Qin Yun."

With that, she happily ran back to her room, hugging the bell. Qin Yun smiled and shook his head. It seemed it was time for him to distribute the things he had obtained. Otherwise, they would just sit there gathering dust. It would be better to find them good owners!
