Chapter 193: Zheng Xuan’s Proposal (1)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
“Mo Fei, Zheng Xuan has advanced to a level six star magician, you know?” Yan Chen asked, widening his eyes.
Mo Fei nodded and replied, “Of course! That guy is putting up a pageantry. It’s hard not to make the world know!”
Yan Chen, with a bitter and a little depressed face, said, “Seems everyone has made breakthrough. Why can’t I? I’m really anxious!”
Mo Fei patted Yan Chen on the shoulder and said earnestly, “Yanyan, as long as you use your effort in eating into your cultivation, I can a.s.sure you that you can make breakthrough soon.”
Yan Chen shook his head and muttered, “How can cultivation be more attractive than eating?”
He scratched his head and then turned his sorrow to joys, “I thought those items Zheng Xuan’s has endorsed would not sell as well as yours, but he has now gotten promoted. This morning, those items he endorses were all sold out. I wonder if I should give him some bonus.” Thirty-thousand star coins sounded truely wobegone!
Looking at Yan Chen, Mo Fei blinked and complained with a girlish voice, “Yanyan, how biased you are! You only consider giving Zheng Xuan a bonus. How about me?”
“You? Feifei! I’ve told Chenchen, if you win the first in the pharmacy compet.i.tion, he will give your 500 million as the bonus, 300 million if you enter top three and 100 million in top ten, is that ok?” Yan Chen said in a sweet tone.
Mo Fei looked at Yan Chen suspiciously, wondering if he had acted too obvious so that Yan Chen could guess the former could win the first place. Although Mo Fei was a little nervous, he still cooperated Yan Chen, “Well, deal!”
Yan Chen breathed out a sigh of relief and looked at Mo Fei with pity. “Feifei! Don’t think too much. I think top ten is like a dream to you. So, you know, I was just joking. Don’t give yourself too much pressure.”
“Well, I think that’ll do: I’d ask Chenchen to give you 5 million star coins only if you’re not the last place. If you’re not the bottom three, he will give you 3 million, and you’ll get 1 million if you are not the bottom ten, ok?”
Mo Fei looked at Yan Chen dumbfounded and asked curiously, “Yanyan, which place do you think I will take?”
Yan Chen touched his chin and said with a pair of sincere eyes, “If I didn’t make a mistake, you should be – the last!”
Mo Fei, “…”
Yan Chen patted on Mo Fei’s shoulder, “Feifei! How on earth did you offend that devil woman so she specially appointed you to lose face before everyone?
Mo Fei, “…”
Mo Fei took a deep breath, “Yanyan, how do you know I’ll definitely lose face?”
Yan Chen shrugged his shoulders and said deservedly, “Isn’t it obvious? What good ranking can you get when you, a level one pharmacist, compare with a group of level three, level four and level five pharmacists?”
“I’ll tell you! That devil woman does not know how to teach students at all. The students she sends out to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion would all basically rank at the bottom.”
Mo Fei, “…”
Yan Chen patted Mo Fei on the shoulder and said meaningfully, “Feifei! If you don’t want to lose face, you can consider redeeming yourself.”
“Redeem myself?” asked Mo Fei in bewilderment.
Yan Chen nodded, “Yes! That devil woman looks otherworldly. In fact, she is greedy for money. If you pay for it, she may agree to send someone else to replace you. If you want to redeem yourself, I can also make a contribution for you.”
“Yanyan, why are you so good to me? Are you in love with me?” said Mo Fei.
Yan Chen smiled shyly and then put on a bitter face, “In fact, I have selfish motives. If you really rank the last place, no one would buy those items you speak for! Feifei! How could you have offended that devil woman?”
Mo Fei, “…” On what basis does Yan Chen think that I would take the last place for sure?
“Yanyan, I must take part in the potion compet.i.tion. I can’t evade.” Mo Fei said helplessly.
Yan Chen looked at Mo Fei gloomily, grasped Mo Fei’s hand and said, “Feifei! If you have no alternative, you must remember not to take the last place and fight for the last but one at least.”
Mo Fei nodded, “I will try my best.”
Mo Fei thought to himself: How I wish Wu Gouyue’s request were the same as Yan Chen’s! Unfortunately, that woman’s heart is black!
General Zheng’s mansion
“Where are you going?” Wearing a long face, Zheng Hong stopped Zheng Xuan, who was going out.
“I’m going out.” Zheng Xuan said lightly.
“You’ve just made breakthrough. You should stay at home and consolidate your achievements. Why are you running out?” Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Xuan displeasingly.
Zheng Xuan said reasonably, “Whatever you say, I will go out anyway.”
Looking at Zheng Xuan’s expression, Zheng Hong sighed helplessly. “Lin Feiyu and Prince Feng have just broken off their engagement. Now he is living in Prince Yu’s mansion.”
Zheng Xuan raised his head and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. “Lin Feiyu is now living in Prince Yu’s mansion, so Yiyi must be very upset now.”
Zheng Hong nodded, “I guess so.”
Zheng Xuan’s eyes glistened, “Well, I will figure it out to let Yiyi move in with me.”
Zheng Hong said disapprovingly, “I think Mo Yi has a good relations.h.i.+p with Mo Fei. At this critical time, he will not leave Mo Fei.”
