After leaving Elder Gong's room, a staff member from the Beast Taming Area appeared and led Ye Chen and Wang Dong'er toward the venue.
The instant Ye Chen saw the man, he knew Elder Gong had gotten the better of him. The staff member had clearly been waiting outside for quite some time. It was obvious that the moment he had made his request, Elder Gong had notified the staff member with Spiritual Power.
The old man had only dragged things out to squeeze more benefits from him.
There was nothing Ye Chen could do about it. After all, he was the one asking for a favor.
"What's wrong?" Wang Dong'er asked curiously. It was the first time she had seen Ye Chen looking so "miserable."
Ye Chen sighed softly. "Nothing. That old man just extorted me."
Wang Dong'er understood at once. Holding back her urge to laugh, she pretended to comfort him. "That old man is absolutely awful. I wanted to say earlier that he was an improper old man."
Ye Chen burst out laughing and cast a provocative glance behind him. He knew Elder Gong wanted to watch him make a fool of himself and was surely observing this place with Spiritual Power right now.
But he did not expose him. It had been a long time since he had seen the old man suffer a setback. The old man really needed to learn his lesson.
Inside the room.
After hearing Wang Dong'er's teasing, Elder Gong spat out the wine he had just taken into his mouth with a "Pfft!"
He was practically on the verge of tears. Since when had he ever been an improper old man?
Of course, he was not about to blame a little girl. He merely added the debt to Ye Chen's account
