Zhan Long Chapter 12 – The Alchemist

The next morning, I woke up bright and early, not to play games but rather to perform my duties. After dressing and brushing my teeth, I headed out.

My first task was to buy 3 servings of breakfast. Afterwards, I headed to the girls dormitory and called Lin Wan Er. Within minutes, she came down, wearing a sky blue miniskirt along with a dress shirt. Her two sources of pride were precariously pressuring the buttons on the dress shirt. Thankfully, she had also noticed this and wore a T-shirt inside of her dress shirt.

I stood in front of the gate, glanced at her, looked away, and then couldn’t resist and peeked at her again. She was truly gorgeous, but unfortunately she also held a grudge against me.

Like before, Lin Wan Er gave me the evil eye as soon as she saw me: “How long are you going to stare at me? I’ll be taking the breakfast and you should hurry back and raise your level in <Destiny>. After all… after all, you work for me… If your level is too low, I would feel ashamed.”

I took a deep breath and promised: “I promise to not disappoint, I’ll be taking my leave now.”

“Wait…” Lin Wan Er suddenly called out, she paused for quite a bit before articulating her next words: “Li Xiao Yao, I want to ask you…before, were you really a part of Special Ops?”

I was taken aback by the question: “Huh, why are you asking about that?”

“I only want to understand. I don’t trust what Wang Xin says, how can a Special Ops who’s killed someone before be as shameless as you? All you do every day is leach off of our food and game time…” (<Destiny> costs about 1 yuan, 16 cents per minute to play)

While speaking, she kept peeking at my face, widening her smile when she saw that I started looking downcast. As expected, Lin Wan Er was still out for revenge. Her happiness was built from my pain.

I tightened my fist before replying: “It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe what Wang Xin said. All that matters is me being able to protect you. I’ll be heading back now.”
