Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Bing’er’s Brother

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Baobao looked up at Mu Can and asked coldly.

"Do you really want to pursue her?" Mu Can asked with interest, looking at Zhang Baobao. He was still trying to figure out whether Zhang Baobao was just a playboy acting on a whim or if he was genuinely interested in Long Yunyun.

If he is just a playboy, Mu Can wouldn’t mind teaching Zhang Baobao a lesson on behalf of his parents. But if he genuinely liked Long Yunyun, Mu Can wouldn’t stop him.

Though Mu Can thought of Long Yunyun as a companion, he knew he wouldn’t play the role of a protector for her.

"Brother, have you ever heard of love at first sight?" Zhang Baobao gazed affectionately at Long Yunyun, who was outside the door.

Mu Can originally wanted to say he did not believe in it, but then he thought of Purple Cloud in the Reincarnation Pearl and didn’t mention it. Instead, he gently patted Zhang Baobao on the shoulder and nodded.

"What if I told you that my Zhang Family is wealthy enough to rival countries, but I have never actively chosen my own life? Would you believe that?" Zhang Baobao didn’t rush after her but stood chatting with Mu Can.

"Zhang Family, the Zhang Family from Lutian?" Mu Can suddenly thought of a family. If the person in front of him was the heir of that family, then his words might really be true.

Upon hearing Mu Can’s question, Zhang Baobao looked at him in surprise.

"Do you know about the Zhang Family?" To Zhang Baobao, the Zhang Family had been hidden behind the scenes for many years. Only those who truly understood the Zhang Family would know the term "Lutian Zhang Family." Mu Can didn’t seem like someone who would know about the Zhang Family.

If Mu Can didn’t have a junior sister named Bing’er, he probably wouldn’t know about such a mysterious family as the Zhang Family in the Mortal World.

The Zhang Family, holding wealth rivaling nations, wasn’t just joking around. Bing’er was from the Zhang Family, and it was because of Bing’er that Mu Can knew about the Zhang Family, which actually controlled the biggest business, Worldwide Trading Company, in the Mortal World.

Mu Can looked at Zhang Baobao with a strange expression and pulled out a Jade Pendant from his pocket, waving it in front of Zhang Baobao.

If Mu Can was not mistaken, Zhang Baobao must be Bing’er’s younger brother, but he wondered why he was here.

"Minister Token, where did you get this? I don’t even have the authority to give someone a Minister Token," Zhang Baobao exclaimed in shock, taking the Jade Pendant to examine it.

Mu Can smiled slightly, put on a mysterious air, and asked, "Isn’t your nickname Xiaopi?"

After saying that, Mu Can laughed to himself, thinking that this wealthy kid must indeed be Bing’er’s younger brother.

"Xiaopi, do you know my sister?" Zhang Baobao’s expression became serious for the first time. If this man truly knew his sister, then everything would make sense.

The Zhang Family lacked neither money nor talent, but the small number of direct descendants was indeed a major weakness. In Zhang Baobao’s generation, there were only two children: Zhang Baobao and Zhang Bing.

"Yes, you can just call me Brother Can," Mu Can said after hearing Zhang Baobao acknowledge his identity, no longer resisting and offering a sincere smile as he extended his hand to Zhang Baobao.

They shook hands lightly.

"Do you really know my sister?" Despite Zhang Baobao’s unruliness outside, at home, he was most afraid of his sister Bing’er, who always had a stern face.

He waved gently towards an empty space and whispered, "We are friends; you may leave."

Only then did Mu Can notice that there was a middle-aged man hidden there, whose strength he couldn’t even discern.

If his strength was indiscernible, there was only one explanation: the middle-aged man was a Martial Venerate.

"Your family is really freakin’ insane. A Martial Venerate could found his own sect, yet he comes to be a bodyguard for a rich second generation," Mu Can said with a pained expression.

"Hehe, there’s no helping it, my family is just worried about safety. Mu Can, how’s my sister doing now?" Since seeing the Minister Token in Mu Can’s hand, Zhang Baobao already acknowledged Mu Can’s identity. In the Zhang Family, such a Minister Token is incredibly hard to come by.

Not only is it symbolic of status, it also allows one to withdraw all the Spirit Stones from any branch of the Worldwide Trading Company and silver banks. Who knows how many people want such a Minister Token but can’t get it.

Of course, Mu Can doesn’t know about these things; this was given to him by Bing’er with a cold face when he left the Immortal Maiden Academy years ago, just telling him if he ever ran out of money, he could use this Jade Pendant to get money from the Worldwide Trading Company.

Although he knew he could definitely withdraw money, Mu Can has actually never been there.

"Your sister is doing quite well. I met her a few days ago, but she should have gone back to the Immortal Ancient Academy by now." Now, Zhang Baobao, in Mu Can’s eyes, is just like a younger brother.

"Oh, that’s good. Our family has been constantly thinking about her. She hasn’t come home for three years now." Speaking of which, Zhang Baobao’s eyes even started to redden a bit, showing he really missed Bing’er.

"By the way, what are you doing here?" Mu Can asked, puzzled. This place is far too distant from Lutian.

Mentioning this, Zhang Baobao also looked reluctant, "It’s just a challenge my family gave me, demanding that if I can’t earn three million Spirit Stones within a year, I must obediently go home and take over the family business."

He spoke as if taking over the Zhang Family business was a huge burden.

"Your family only has you as a son; if you don’t take over the business, do they expect your sister to?" Mu Can had a look of exasperation.

"But I just want to cultivate, making money is so boring." Zhang Baobao felt himself quite aggrieved.

"Did you meet your target then?" Reaching three million Spirit Stones isn’t a small amount, not easy to achieve at all.

On this topic, Zhang Baobao said with pride, "Of course I did. Aren’t I incredible? It took me less than half a year to achieve it, otherwise my family wouldn’t agree to let me go to the Immortal Ancient Academy. I really do want to go there and find my sister."

"Huh? What’s with you, Mu Can?" Seeing the strange expression on Mu Can’s face, Zhang Baobao asked in confusion.

"You really are incredibly talented." Mu Can couldn’t even find the words to describe Zhang Baobao.

He had long ago heard from Bing’er that her little brother has always been cunning.

Often lending his pocket money to other kids; however, for every ten Spirit Stones lent out, he would have fifteen returned - it’s blatant usury.

If they couldn’t pay back, there was a daily interest of one Spirit Stone until the principal and interest were paid off - a ruthless little businessman.

Only when talking about this little brother would a smile finally appear on Bing’er’s ever-cold face.

"Mu Can, is that girl your girlfriend?" Zhang Baobao asked with a rare blush.

"What, you fancy her? She’s not that easy to chase." Now knowing Zhang Baobao’s identity, Mu Can feels this kid isn’t so annoying.

"So, where are you heading, Mu Can? Let me escort you for a bit." Zhang Baobao said eagerly.

"You’re probably not wanting to escort me but to get close to Long Yunyun," Mu Can said, seeing right through him.

However, Zhang Baobao’s thick skin means he hardly cares.
