Chapter 16.2 – The Fake Boyfriend Plan

Secretly, in his mind, Nian Bing said, ‘You obviously received this news from Li De. You’re just asking me because you don’t trust me.’ “ I came from a small place and haven’t seen much of the world, as you already know. And so, during these days when they sealed the city,I didn’t know what was happening. I have a friend who lives in the city who runs a metal shop. I stayed there for a couple of days.”

“Metal shop? I know most of the big weaponry shops in the city. Which one was it?” Long Zhi continued to question him. A little sharpness slipped from his speech.

Nian Bing smiled a bit and said, “You definitely won’t be familiar with it. It’s a very small metalware shop called Shui Huo Metal Shop. Usually, there are very few customers. The industry’s competition is very intense; it’s not a good life.”

“Shui Huo Metal Shop?” Long Ling smiled and could not help but giggle. Laughing in spite of herself, she said, “With this name, how could his business be good? You should advise him to change it.”

Nian Bing echoed, “That’s right! I also told her that, but she is very stubborn. No matter what I said, she would not change it. I also don’t know what to do. I’m also not very close to her, so it’s not good to say too much.”

Long Zhi put down his chopsticks. He smiled slightly then said, “Okay, you guys eat. This noon, I drank a little. Additionally, dealing with the sealing of the city for these few days was tiring, so I will first go rest. Ling’er, Shi Jiu, take good care of Nian Bing. He’s already been assigned his lodgings, so bring him there. Nian Bing, the association will not restrict your freedom, but I want you to stay here for a few days to pay special attention to your cultivation.”

Nian Bing hastily nodded his head in response. He stood, watching Long Zhi leave. He knew that he had already temporarily passed a test, but Long Zhi would most definitely dispatch a person to investigate Shui Huo Metal Shop. Feng Nu was smart; there should be no way she would slip up in her speech. His mind relaxed a bit after thinking this. Finally, he was in the mood to eat. The flavor of the vegetable and meat dishes were very plain, but to a hungry Nian Bing, they were satisfactory.

Shi Jiu finally opened his mouth for the first time. “Nian Bing, what are you planning to do from now on? Do you want to stay at the Association to cultivate, or do you want to go out and learn from experience?” Shi Jui emphasized the words “learning from experience” very strongly.

Nian Bing filled his mouth with food and replied very vaguely, “I still have not put much thought into it. However, I definitely will stay at the library for some more days. Afterwards, ask me again.”

Shi Jiu spoke with loathing, “How low class. Don’t tell me you didn’t know that eating while talking with people is rude?”

Nian Bing knew that he was deliberately attacking himself, but he also did not mind it. He chewed the food stuffed in his mouth and swallowed it down, saying, “I’m really sorry. I came from a small place, so I don’t understand much about etiquette. From now on, please let me ask Big Brother Shi Jiu for more teaching.” His face adopted an expression as if he was in reverence of his majesty. In his heart, he secretly sneered. It was too easy to handle Shi Jiu’s nasty character.

Long Ling said, “Senior brother, don’t blame Nian Bing. From now on, we will teach him these things. Nian Bing, eat a little more. It seems your ordinary days were filled with hardship.”

In this weird atmosphere, the meal was finally finished. Shi Jiu mocked and ridiculed Nian Bing from time to time, and Long Ling would continuously help Nian Bing , causing Shi Jiu’s fires of jealousy to burn even more vigorously, and Nian Bing attacked like one without cares. He gorged himself with food, eating without a trace of politeness to fill his stomach.
