Chapter 1114: 769 Asking for monthly votes!_2

"Add all those items up, charge it to the card."

Yuan Run was straightforward.

There was no denying it.

From a business standpoint, she was the kind of customer everyone loved.

Jiang Chen found it amusing despite the effort going unappreciated, but there was nothing he could do. Since that was what the customer wanted, he couldn’t refuse and just nodded.

"Alright, but just to be clear, this is a free gift from me. You insisted on paying, so don’t go and complain to the Bureau of Industry and Commerce later."

He had already experienced this girl’s peculiarities and spontaneity.

She was even someone who would trick her own brother.

Yuan Run looked at him dismissively, "Can’t you be a bit more open-minded? Do I look like that kind of person?"

Jiang Chen nodded, not minding the young lady’s attitude problem; after all, he wasn’t that much older than her.

"Is that your friend?"

He glanced downstairs.

Since he had just met her today, he couldn’t possibly forget.

The long-haired woman downstairs, who had both top-grade looks and figure, was exactly the one who was with Fang Jun earlier at the Fang family’s place.

"Yes."

Yuan Run replied, also looking downstairs, then added with interest, "You like her?"

Sure enough, old habits die hard.

He should not, as a boss, harbor any thoughts about his customers, so Jiang Chen shook his head with conviction.

"Just asking."

"No problem, if you really like her, I can introduce you. I know her quite well."

Yuan Run tempted, squinting her seemingly innocent big eyes, which suddenly gave off a mischievous and dangerous vibe.

They were not acquainted just yesterday; they had seen each other quite a few times already. Jiang Chen was not beguiled and earnestly said, "I’m not that kind of guy."

This left Yuan Run speechless. She pouted and muttered, "Hypocrite."

Jiang Chen pretended he heard nothing.

"Hey, I’m telling you, she’s really outstanding. Lots of men chase after her, including my brother who likes her."

Yuan Run seemed persistent.

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows in confirmation, "Your brother likes her?"

Yuan Run immediately nodded, "Nonsense."

Jiang Chen said, "I don’t think your brother is that kind."

"What kind do you mean?"

"..."

Though he’d only met the man once, from the nickname ’tiger idiot,’ he could tell what kind of character the one who once blatantly caused trouble at the Apang Palace had.

Such a person devoted to martial skills would hardly dwell on love and affection.

Applying the idea of romantic love to such a character could only be described in one word.

Vulgar.

Seemingly noticing what Jiang Chen was thinking, Yuan Run, who would trick even her own father and not just her brother, continued, "I’m not lying, if you don’t believe me, go ask her yourself. Even though my brother may seem a bit dull and isn’t good at courting girls, he is also a man!"

That statement was indeed flawless.

Love between men and women is a natural law.

And someone with a boldly masculine essence like the tiger idiot would obviously be straight.

"If your brother likes her, why would you introduce her to me?"

Jiang Chen appeared to believe her for the moment.

"What’s the impact?"

Yuan Run’s justifiable attitude left him at a loss, "They aren’t really together; my brother likes her, but she is free to choose."

A real proverb, indeed.

Look at that.

This is the difference brought up by different families.

So reasonable to discern between truths.

"I’m afraid your brother will beat me up."

Jiang Chen said nonchalantly.

The disdain on Yuan Run’s round face became more evident and thicker than before.

"My brother is currently doing tough training in the military; he barely comes out all year round. What are you afraid of? Plus, my brother is not that unreasonable."

Being reasonable.

So, being reasoned even when scheming to overcharge Apang Palace for a bowl of noodles is the same logic?

Jiang Chen didn’t respond.

Perhaps realizing her own words lacked convincing power, Yuan Run continued, "And Sister Hu Die can protect you, too."

Hu Die.

As expected.

That must be the woman’s name.

The name suits the person.

It really sounds good.

Jiang Chen looked downstairs, gleaning a rather crucial piece of information from the simple words just spoken by Yuan Run.

He had personally witnessed, even experienced firsthand, the skills of Yuan Bingshan, known as the tiger idiot, who is as renowned as Young Prince Ye.

Back then, if it hadn’t been for Lan Peizhi’s intervention, he probably would have ended up taking a long hospital vacation.

Although he was no match for Lan Peizhi, the title of ’tiger idiot’ wasn’t unfounded. In the realm of normal people, he would definitely be considered a master.

At least in a one-on-one fight, Young Prince Ye would surely not be his opponent.

This is something Jiang Chen, who had had the fortune of crossing hands with both the north and the south, could certainly judge with ample qualification.

Could that seemingly harmless and charming woman actually stand a chance against the tiger idiot?

Could this girl be talking nonsense?

"Can she beat your brother?"

Jiang Chen didn’t hide his skepticism.

"At least knocking you down with one hand wouldn’t be a problem."

Yuan Run was emphatic, truly not giving any face to the boss.

Of course.

Perhaps it was because of her straightforward nature.

Jiang Chen naturally wouldn’t mind this trivial matter and straightforwardly retorted, "I think you are bullshitting."

"..."

Yuan Run rolled her eyes, not bothering to argue further, "I’ve seen your mediocre skills; believe it or not, I don’t care."

As a once famous bootlicker at East Sea University, this kind of jab was nothing painful or itchy for Jiang Chen.

He underwent physical training only to keep fit, not to strive for the so-called "Number One in the World."

Everything depends on talent.

This is a sad but true reality.

Just like studying.

Even if you exhaust all your effort and energy, you might barely make it into a decent college.

While some people barely put in effort and yet easily get admitted into top universities.

It’s the same with martial arts.

Jiang Chen was well aware that even if he trained diligently his whole life, he would never be a match for the Taoist nun sister, who was probably sleeping in his resting room by now.

In light of such reality, Jiang Chen never dwelled on or obsessed over it, as fixating on it would only bring discomfort without any meaning.

Besides, the era where one roamed the Jianghu with a sword is long past.

The era of "One Force Breaks Ten Thousand Laws" is over.

Now, it’s all about "winning people over with virtue."

"You should go down and accompany your friend, don’t let them wait too long," Jiang Chen kindly reminded.

"None of your business."

Though they had met a few times, there wasn’t much deep interaction, but this girl seemed very familiar with him, not treating him as an outsider at all.

Maybe it’s because I’m quite approachable, thought Jiang Chen.

"If I’m not mistaken, you should still be in school, right? You should visit here less often," Jiang Chen said with a posture of moral high ground, "Focus on your studies and strive to become a person useful to society."

Yuan Run stared blankly at him.

The siblings were quite unconventional, and she was aware of what some people clandestinely criticized, but today she seemed to have encountered an even bigger oddity.

Barely taller than Jiang Chen’s shoulders, Yuan Run tiptoed, lifted her hand, and touched his forehead, "...You’re not sick, are you?"

Jiang Chen swiftly stepped back, wary of any misunderstandings if seen by others.

"Is that polite?"

Yuan Run withdrew her hand, compassionately saying, "I’m just concerned about you. If there’s really something wrong, better get it treated early rather than miss the best treatment period."

"Thank you."

Jiang Chen responded cordially, maintaining the decorum suited to a boss.

Seemingly finding it uninteresting, Yuan Run did not persist.

"I’m telling you, I’ll come if I want. If you refuse to welcome me, I’ll file a complaint."

"..."

Yuan Run turned and ran downstairs with a clatter.

These children of powerful families really are extraordinary, each with such distinct and vivid character.

Jiang Chen watched her return to her seat and then whisper something with the woman named Hu Die.

Jiang Chen, from his vantage point above.

It wasn’t long before the woman whom he had seen twice in the day looked up.

Jiang Chen courteously cracked a slight smile.

She did the same, seemingly recognizing him too, amiably and immediately raising her glass to gesture towards him.

Upstairs and downstairs.

Lively and bustling.
