Chapter 274 - Timely Help (1/2)
The woman was wearing a black dress, and her soft black hair was placed in a bun, showing a charming and beautiful face. Her skin was as white as snow.
Just by standing casually, her graceful and hot figure attracted countless passers-by with the charm of a mature woman.
It was Mu Wansu!
At a glance, Lin Xun recognized her.
The “Black Rose” from Donglin Town was now the shopkeeper of Keystone Business in the Mist City. Its status and forces were no longer the same as before.
Lin Xun was no longer a weak teenager from when he first entered the Feiyun Village, as well.
It had been about two years since they last met, and Lin Xun felt deeply saddened by the past when he saw her again.
At the same time, Mu Wansu also saw Lin Xun walking out of the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists. She curved her lips into a light smile and waved her hand in greeting.
Lin Xun stepped forward and laughed, “What a surprise! I didn’t expect to meet sister Wansu again.”
“Unfortunately, I came to see you, especially.”
As soon as she saw the warm and bright smile on Lin’s face, Mu Wansu’s feelings became subtle. If she hadn’t known this little bastard before, she would be deceived by his harmless appearance.
“You’re looking for me?”
Lin Xun was surprised.
“How about having a walk?” Mu Wansu asked.
After thinking, Lin Xun agreed, “Can anybody refuse an invitation from a beautiful woman like Sister Su?”
Mu Wansu stared at him, “You’ve become more cunning in these two years.”
Then she turned and walked along the street, “Why didn’t you come to the celebration of Keystone Business?”
Lin Xun stepped forward and went along with Mu Wansu as he casually replied, “At that time, I had something urgent to deal with, and I couldn’t get away from it.”
Mu Wansu didn’t make any comments on Lin’s reason.
He then asked, “So, Sister Su, you shouldn’t have come here to blame me for this?”
“What’s wrong with those trifles? I don’t mind it. I’m here to ask what you have to do with Golden Hall.”
Lin Xun was surprised, “Sister, you’ve heard about it?”
Mu Wansu was peeved, “I know this not from the rumors. I have personally seen your performance in the Province Test. I just want you to know that even if you are poor, you should choose to cooperate with Keystone Business. By virtue of the spiritual tattoo skills of Master Xun and the strong financial power of Keystone Business, you can own endless wealth and prosperity. Why do you demean yourself by doing something like this?”
Before Lin Xun could explain himself, Mu Wansu turned around and stared at him thoughtfully, “Of course, since you did it, your intention is not only making money, am I right?”
Lin Xun looked at Mu Wansu’s mesmerizing and pretty face and admired her sincerely, “Sister, you really have sharp eyes and judge things like God.”
Hearing his praise, Mu Wansu became grumpy, “Don’t spout nonsense. Because of the relationship between the big Childe Shi Shuan and the third Childe Shi Yu, I do not regard you as an outsider. If you joke again, it will be too insincere.”
Lin Xun looked serious and said, “Sorry, sister, I’ll remember your advice.”
He then continued, “The boss of Golden Hall has saved my life once, and we have been hearty friends ever since. As Golden Hall has not yet earned itself a name in the Mist City, I must help my friend in his need.”
Mu Wansu also knew the background of Golden Hall because the first shop opened by Gu Yan Ping was in the Donglin Town, and she knew.
It was due to her understanding that she was so surprised. It was impossible for such a newly rising small force to ask Lin for help at all. Its backing was far inferior to even the average forces in Mist City.
Lin Xun’s explanation thoroughly eliminated her doubts.
“I didn’t know that you were a man of great affection and righteousness.”
There was no irony in Mu Wansu’s smile; she just felt a bit shocked. It seemed that she had never thought a bastard like Lin Xun was also someone who valued friendship.
Lin Xun happily proclaimed, “When you know more about me, you will find that I have even more merits, in fact.”
“Bah! Why don’t I find your virtues then? I just feel you’re more shameless than before!”
Lin Xun shrugged helplessly in response.
Mu Wansu drew her hair around her ears and abruptly said, “I was going to pull you into Keystone Business and give you the status of a special Spiritual Tattooist, but now, it seems impossible.”
It suddenly dawned on Lin Xun that this was the real purpose for Mu Wansu’s visit.
He didn’t talk about this suggestion, and his silence showed his attitude.
“It’s all right. We can work together if there’s a chance in the future.”
