<strong>Chapter 741: Chapter 0743: I’ll Go with You</strong>


    Chu Ge was startled, “That fast?”


    He thought Dao Liu would at least be a little polite to him, but he did not expect that they would be in such a hurry to arrange for his rtive to start the job.


    Lin Dong was quite puzzled and suspicious, “What exactly is Uncle Liu thinking? With only two people in his furniture factory, doesn’t he need hands even more than we do? Why didn’t he arrange for his rtive to work at his furniture factory instead?”


    Lin Dong’s murmuring was heard loud and clear by Chu Ge, who gently shook his head, as he too was clueless about the situation.


    But Jian Chunqiu justughed. He chuckled lightly and said, “He probably thinks it’s too awkward to negotiate wages since they’re too familiar.”


    Jian Chunqiu appeared to have thought of something, and curiously looked at Lin Dong, asking, “How much does this young fellow Chu Ge pay you to look after the ce?”


    Lin Dong chuckled awkwardly, somewhat embarrassed as he scratched his head, “Well… about that…”


    To be honest, he hadn’t really discussed money with Chu Ge, so even now he didn’t know how much his sry actually was.


    Jian Chunqiu clicked his tongue and said with a teasing tone, “Knowing how stingy Chu Ge is, he surely wouldn’t offer you much. How about this, since you have already acknowledged me as your master, why not follow me back to Sword Pavilion after the summit has ended? At Spirit Mountain, you’ll eat and drink the best, and money won’t be a concern. On Spirit Mountain, money is the least valuable thing.”


    Chu Ge watched Jian Chunqiu speechlessly; this old geezer was starting to poach his man right in front of him.


    Lin Dong smiled awkwardly, “Master, that puts me in a difficult position. Mr. Chu’s gambling stone field has just opened, I can’t just up and leave like that.”


    “Heh, you cheeky kid, you’ve got some loyalty,” Jian Chunqiu said, patting Lin Dong’s shoulder, “Alright, I was just saying it in passing. You don’t need to take it seriously.”


    Lin Dong was taken aback, then let out an “Ah,” “Master, you really had no ns to take me to see Spirit Mountain?”


    He still wasn’t clear about Jian Chunqiu’s background, but hearing him mention Spirit Mountain and Sword Pavilion, it must be a remarkable ce.


    Jian Chunqiu snorted, “I just said I would take you back to Spirit Mountain, and you weren’t willing. Now you’re ming me for not nning on taking you there, you cheeky kid.”


    Lin Dong chuckled, “Master, I don’t even know what Spirit Mountain really is.”


    “Spirit Mountain? The name says it all—it’s simply a mountain,” Jian Chunqiu exined sinctly.


    Lin Dong was speechless, obviously dissatisfied with his exnation, pouting his lips, “Master, you’ve already taken me as your disciple, but I still don’t know what you actually do.”


    Jian Chunqiu raised his hand and gave Lin Dong a smack on the head, “If you don’t know what I do, why did you acknowledge me as your master?”


    Lin Dong clutched his head, looking at Jian Chunqiu with a pained expression, “It’s because Mr. Chu respects you so much and your martial arts skills are definitely above his. Since Mr. Chu didn’t want to take me as a disciple, I agreed when you wanted me to. It’s because your martial arts skills are superior.”


    Lin Dong said with a cheeky grin.


    Jian Chunqiu nearly had an internal injury from his words, “You little rascal, looks like you need a good beating.”


    Lin Dong shrank his neck andughed sheepishly, hastily moving to the side.


    Chu Ge slightly curved his lips and said to Lin Dong, “Uncle Jian’s background, if spoken of, would scare you. What you need to focus on now is to learn all of his unique martial arts skills. Then you could be fearless of both Heaven and Earth.”


    Although Chu Ge was speaking in jest, he genuinely hoped Lin Dong would learn ancient martial arts well from Jian Chunqiu.


    Later, driven by curiosity, Lin Dong went to find out more about Jian Chunqiu and, upon learning that he was the head of Sword Pavilion, was filled with shock. He didn’t expect Jian Chunqiu to take an interest in him and take him as a disciple. For the first time in his nearly twenty years of life, he was full of confidence. He firmly believed that there must be something special about him that attracted Jian Chunqiu, and he also devoted himself even more diligently to learning ancient martial arts, but that is a story for another time.


    Lin Dong scratched his head in resignation upon hearing Chu Ge’s words and decided not to say anything more.


    The day was busy but fulfilling. When Chu Ge and Jian Chunqiu returned to the vi, Nangong Man Sha had juste out of the vi.


    The two women were talking andughing.


    “Miss Man Sha, I really want to thank you for today.”


    Mu Bingtong politely said to Nangong Man Sha.


    Nangong Man Sha smiled, “No need to thank me, all of this is what I should do. Since you’re new to the Capital City and unfamiliar with this ce, and Mr. Chu is a benefactor of the Nangong Family, and you’re his fiancée, what I’ve done is simply returning a favor.”


    Mu Bingtong hadn’t expected Nangong Man Sha to be so straightforward, she chuckled involuntarily.


    Nangong Man Sha, puzzled, watched her and asked, “What’s so funny, Lady Mu?”


    Mu Bingtong shook her head, “Miss Man Sha is not quite what I initially thought.”


    When she first met Nangong Man Sha, she thought Man Sha would be arrogant because of her background, but after spending the day together, she was not as aloof as imagined; on the contrary, she was quite approachable.


    Perhaps it was because they were both women, she always felt that there was a lot to talk about between them.


    In fact, not only did Mu Bingtong feel this way, but Nangong Man Sha did too. She smiled with curiosity and asked, “Oh? In what way do I differ? Is it… for better or worse?”


    Mu Bingtong chuckled, “Of course, for the better.”


    When Chu Ge drove up, he saw the two women standing at the entrance of the vi talking andughing. He parked the car and got out.


    “What are you doing standing at the front door?” Chu Ge asked.


    Nangong Man Sha and Mu Bingtong turned around and saw Chu Ge and Jian Chunqiuing back, exchanging nces.


    Nangong Man Sha nced at the time and said to them, “Alright, it’s gettingte. I should be going back. What time are you nning to talk business with Shenghao Technology tomorrow? I’ll check my schedule and try to apany you.”


    Thetter remark was addressed to Mu Bingtong.


    Mu Bingtong thought for a moment, “I want to visit them in the morning. The cancetion of the order from Shenghao Technology caused a great loss to Jinxiu, and that’s what I most want to resolve uponing to the Capital City.”


    Nangong Man Sha nodded, “I’ll check my schedule tomorrow morning. If it’s early, I’lle to pick you up. Let’s keep in touch by phone.”


    After saying that, Nangong Man Sha said goodbye and left.


    Mu Bingtong and the others returned to the vi.


    Despite having two naps during the busy day, Mu Bingtong, who rarely gets enough rest, still felt sleepy.


    She yawned and waved at Chu Ge, “You all rest well, I’m going to sleep. Good night.”


    Chu Ge grabbed Mu Bingtong’s arm. Although she hade to the Capital City for business purposes, he was genuinely moved.


    “I’ll apany you for the business talk tomorrow.”
