Confessing to the Boss

"Boss, this matter is very complicated. You know about the situation in the Ancient Capital, right...?"

Tang Miao thought for a moment, then decided to reveal the matter of the Demon Element. After all, although this old man could be quite unreasonable at times, his influence within the country was still considerable. Moreover, although the matter of the Ancient Capital had been concealed, it would be made public sooner or later.

Although the details of the Demon Element won't be made public, this thing can't stay a secret forever.

After hearing Tang Miao's explanation, Feng Li was taken aback for a moment before saying, "I see. I was just being nosy."

"Then you can wait until Old Man Bao finishes fixing it before you come to the assembly. But let me tell you, don't even think about winning the world championship with something like this..."

Tang Miao curled his lip. With his current strength, he could easily crush his peers. Besides, there was still a long time to go, and he wasn't idle every day while others were improving.

He then said, "Don't worry, boss. Don't you trust my abilities?"

After agreeing, Feng Li added, "Since you're in Magic Capital, why don't you spend more time guarding the National Pavilion? Its strength is still a bit weak right now."

Tang Miao naturally couldn't agree to that; he wouldn't do manual labor for free. "That won't do, boss. You know I'm very poor. I need to cultivate, and I also need various resources. Besides..."

Feng Li on the other end of the phone was speechless. He really wanted to give Tang Miao, this money-grubbing guy, a righteous scolding. But then he thought... well, he's a self-made kid, not relying on anyone's help, it must be pretty tough for him.

"Alright, alright."

Although Feng Li understood, he still said with some impatience, "You really don't act until you see the benefit! I'll give you ten million for every period you hold out."

"Boss, you should have said that sooner. Money isn't a big deal. I can kick out as many of those foreign punks as I want for you," Tang Miao said confidently.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Miao simply chose to ignore the matter.

Are you kidding me? Tang Miao didn't think he could make that kind of money... After all, not every team is as foolish as the Egyptians to challenge someone to a one-on-one fight...

However, if he had the time and the chance to earn votes, Tang Miao would naturally not miss the opportunity.

After speaking with Feng Li, Tang Miao called Ai Tutu again. But as expected, when the call connected, she was immediately met with a furious outburst. "Tang Miao, you bastard, you've kept me up all night! Don't you let me get any rest...?"

At this point, Ai Tutu someone you can't afford to mess with, someone you can't afford to mess with...

Tang Miao hung up the phone rather timidly...

After hanging up the phone, Tang Miao headed towards the Qingtian Hunter Agency. To be honest, he really wanted to rejoin the team. He missed that little vixen Jiang Shaoxu and that cold beauty Mu Ningxue terribly...

However, on the other hand, if Tang Miao went back Old Man Bao had finished, he might miss out on a lot of things.

After all, he's being given resources to hone his skills, so why wouldn't he collect the energy he can store? Is he supposed to search for it later? That would be foolish...

The key point is that given his lazy nature, he obviously wouldn't do something like that. That's why he wasn't in a hurry to leave.

Upon arriving at the Qingtian Hunter Agency, they discovered that Old Man Bao was not there. Only Leng Qing, wearing a maid's apron with a slender waist, was present. It must be said, combined with her tall and slender figure, she possessed a unique charm.

"Oh, what brings you here today?" Leng Qing glanced at Tang Miao, knowing that this kid had rarely come over since the Hangzhou incident.

This drove Ling Ling to the brink of despair, and she complained incessantly every day. With her intelligence, it was truly a waste for her to be in junior high. However, the magical world was different from her previous one. No matter how high her IQ was, it was still useless before she turned sixteen.

Of course, innate self-awareness is possible. However... self-awareness is something not everyone can achieve.

"Senior Sister, your apron is really pretty. How about I give you a set of clothes sometime?" Tang Miao said to Leng Qing with a playful look.

Leng Qing curled her lip. "Don't be shameless. You can't even fool Ling Ling, and you think you can fool me?"

She knew perfectly well what Tang Miao was thinking. She rolled her eyes at Tang Miao before asking, "What would you like to drink?"

I'm not going home tonight.

"Roll!"

Tang Miao shrugged and said, "Then just a cocktail, please."

Leng Qing seemed a bit rusty, probably having not touched anything here in a long time. It took her quite a while to prepare a drink for Tang Miao, and she also poured one for herself.

Tang Miao showed no impatience whatsoever, after all, Senior Sister Leng Qing's swaying figure was truly pleasing to the eye.

"If you keep looking, believe me or not, I'll knock your head off!" Leng Qing said, somewhat Leng Qing by the guy's nonchalant way of staring at her.

"No, it's just that you're so charming, Senior Sister. Otherwise, why would I keep staring at you?"

Seeing Tang Miao's Leng Qing finally said, "Believe it or not, I'll tell Tang Yue about you flirting with me?"

Tang Miao immediately became serious. "Senior Sister, where did Old Man Bao go?"

Seeing Tang Miao's face change so quickly, Leng Qing found it somewhat amusing and said, "So even you, little hooligan, have someone you're afraid of?"

"What are you talking about? What do I have to be afraid of? I just feel that teasing my senior sister is wrong."

You can't just admit to something like that, otherwise this little vixen will start manipulating you!

Leng Qing didn't pursue the matter further, but instead replied, "Grandpa said he had some things to take care of, and I don't know where he went. But this matter should be related to you, right?"

"I remember Ling Ling told me that you came back to see Grandpa. Then he left the next day and hasn't come back since. What did you want with my grandpa?"

"Oh, I see!"

Tang Miao responded, then looked at Leng Qing's curious expression and shook his head with a smile, "This matter needs to be kept secret. Senior Sister, you shouldn't pry. Let's wait until Old Man Bao returns."

"You..."

Leng Qing was stunned. So this guy went to his grandfather for a favor, drank the cocktail he mixed, and didn't even tell him?

Before Leng Qing could get angry, Tang Miao said, "Senior Sister, don't be angry yet. This matter is a bit complicated, so let's wait for Old Man Bao to tell you. It's mainly because I can't explain it to you clearly."

"Hmph~"

Leng Qing immediately realized that Tang Miao was just unwilling to talk about it; all that nonsense was just rubbish.

Tang Miao shrugged and said, "Since Old Man Bao isn't here, I'll go back to cultivate first. I also need to keep watch at the National Pavilion for the next few days."

After saying that, he downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, smacked his lips, and said, "Hmm, not bad. Whoever marries Senior Sister will be very lucky."
