Chapter 176: Chapter 87: I Approved Your Resignation!_2

It was a golden token, the moment it appeared, a gentle light element air diffused from it, giving both the shopkeeper and the female employee a warm feeling. The crystal clear, exquisite golden texture seemed to devour their gaze.

"This is..." the shopkeeper’s voice suddenly raised, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"This should give a discount, right?" said Long Kongkong. Indeed, what he took out was the reserve Sacred Legate badge.

If it were before going to the Ling family, he would never have done it no matter what. He was well aware of the sensitivity of being a reserve Sacred Legate. However, ever since he learned of his mother’s persecution, his attitude has taken a certain shift. His respect for the Sacred Legate has long gone. Reserve Sacred Legate? Is that a big deal? Even if the Sacred Legate himself bullied his mom, he would settle scores with them sooner or later.

Therefore, using the identity of the reserve Sacred Legate, he felt no guilt at all.

"This, this is impossible," the shopkeeper blurted out subconsciously.

Long Kongkong waved the badge in his hand again, "What’s impossible? Haven’t you heard of geniuses? Hurry up, wrap it up for me, I only have ten Gold Coins, all for you." While he was saying this, he took out the badge of the Spirit Furnace Academy for the other to see clearly, and then gathered up all these things.

"Okay, okay. Let me wrap it up for you." Without further rejection, the hands of the manager were shaking slightly, and the female employee beside him was instructed to do it promptly.

Two minutes later, Long Kongkong happily left with the beautifully packaged necklace. The shopkeeper’s gaze was still unfocused.

"Manager, what was that badge just now? With a price less than a tenth of the value, how will you explain it to the owner?" the female employee whispered.

"You don’t understand," the manager threw these words down and hurried towards the back.

Long Kongkong put the beautiful necklace box into his storage ring, cheerfully heading towards Hep Benn’s home. He planned to wait for her at the front door. He was already daydreaming about the moment he would personally put the necklace on her. He even wondered if his dream of a hug when he casted the Angel’s Blessing last time would come true, now that he had such a gift.

The more he thought of it, the more smug he got, and the smile on his face couldn’t be concealed. There was no remorse over the fact that he used the badge of the reserve Sacred Legate to obtain a massive discount, as he no longer had any good feelings towards the Sacred Legate, considering they bullied his mom before.

Arriving near the Hep Benn’s home, he first found a place where he could see the front door of the Hep Benn’s house, ate something, then he started to wander around the vicinity. He had to be extremely cautious because he was afraid of running into Father Hep, he fully utilized his anti-detection ability.

As the day gradually darkened, it was evening, and Hep Benn had not yet returned home.

Does school finish this late?

Long Kongkong is a restless person by nature, under normal circumstances, he would have been impatient by now. But when it came to waiting for his goddess, things were different, he held his impatience, looked for a place on the roadside to sit down, and just quietly waited.

Eventually, the sky was completely dark, and the streets were dimly lit by the magic street lamps. Looking at his shadow projected on the ground, Long Kongkong couldn’t help but feel helpless, "Goddess, oh, my goddess, why aren’t you back yet?"

At this moment, as if pulled by something, he looked up towards one end of the road, and his eyes instantly narrowed.

The slender figure of Hep Benn first entered his sight, dressed in a white school uniform that suitably clung to her, her long flowing hair spread out behind her. Of course, this was not the reason for Long Kongkong’s dismay. If it had been just her, he who had been waiting for so long would have rushed over without hesitation.

But at this moment, there was another person beside Hep Benn, a tall young man who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. He had an upright stature, short neat hair, handsome and sunny face, wearing a school uniform similar to that of Hep Benn. As they walked, he seemed to be saying something to Hep Benn. Hep Benn also had a faint smile on her face. They approached from a distance, and looked pretty matched.

"Crack, crack, crack" Long Kongkong seemed to hear the sound of his heart breaking. My goddess, my goddess!

He slowly stood up, watching as the young man accompanied Hep Benn all the way to her front door. After some brief words at the door, the young man waved at Hep Benn and walked away.

Long Kongkong watched this scene in a daze, his mind somewhat blank, but his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

It was at this moment, he suddenly realized that his affection for her had deepened considerably. At this moment, his heart ached. It was an almost suffocating sensation. This was the first time he had ever felt this way in his life.

Hep Benn, who was about to open the door to go home, seemed to have sensed something. He instinctively turned his head and looked at Long Kongkong, who was staring blankly at him.

"Kongkong? Why are you here?" she asked, walking straight towards Long Kongkong.

At this moment, Long Kongkong felt a strong urge to turn and run away. At this moment, he felt a little reluctance to face her.

Hep Benn came to him, surprise in her eyes, "What’s wrong, Kongkong? Aren’t you supposed to be at school today? Are you here to see me?"

Long Kongkong instinctively nodded his head.

"What’s wrong? Anything happened?" Hep Benn seemed to instinctively sense that his mood was off.

Long Kongkong wasn’t as playful as he usually was. He just shook his head, low, "Nothing. I just came to ask for leave. We might have to go out for exams, so, I probably won’t be able to work this weekend, and I don’t know how long the exams will last. So, I don’t know when I’ll be able to return to work."

At this point, he paused and then lowered his head to say, "If you feel you can’t handle the workload, you can hire someone else."

At this moment, he felt utterly disheartened. Previously, he couldn’t wait for her to come back, but now he just wanted to escape.

"What are you talking about? Are you quitting your job? Isn’t taking exams a normal thing? It doesn’t matter if you come a few times less! Why do you want to quit?" Hep Benn exclaimed in surprise.

Long Kongkong just shook his head, "I’m busy with my studies, I might not have much time in future."

"What’s the matter with you? You’re not the same as usual. Are you Long Kongkong? Or, are you Long Dangdang?" Hep Benn’s voice grew serious.

"Of course I’m Long Kongkong." Long Kongkong suddenly raised his head, his breathing became a little ragged.

The next moment, his storage ring shimmered, and he took out a beautiful box and thrust it into Hep Benn’s hands, "This, this is the gift I bought for you, I’m leaving!" He turned and ran, not wanting to stay a moment longer. He dared not look into her clear eyes, fearing he might lose himself in them.

"You stop right there!" A crisp voice came from behind. It was Hep Benn.

Long Kongkong’s steps halted.

"What are you doing? Have you gone crazy?" Hep Benn quickly caught up with him, standing in front of him. Looking at his face filled with frustration, she suddenly burst into laughter.

Her laughter made Long Kongkong a little dumbfounded. The smile, as beautiful as blooming flowers, was truly captivating.

"Did you see the guy who came back with me just now?" Hep Benn had already guessed the cause of the issue.

"Hmm." Long Kongkong nodded vigorously.

"Didn’t you think he looked a bit like me?" Hep Benn continued.

"Huh?"

Hep Benn wore a serious expression, "Alright, you can leave. I approve of your resignation!"
