Chapter 520: Chapter 521: Mood and Influence

"Brother, you’re finally awake!" Bao’er exclaimed joyfully, almost leaping on him.

Chu You didn’t look the slightest bit recovered from a severe illness, on the contrary, he was vibrant and his complexion was healthy and rosy.

He sat up, smiled, and gently patted Bao’er’s cheek.

"Brother, it was just me yesterday. No matter how I tried to wake you, you wouldn’t stir, so I had to call 120."

"Good job, Bao’er."

"Bro, you don’t know. You had so many calls yesterday, and I... I didn’t dare to answer."

"Hmm, it’s okay. I’ll call them back later." He said, beginning to dress.

"The doctor said to see him when you wake up."

"Alright, I got it." He thought to himself what’s there to go for, and decided to just sneak away.

At this moment, Bao’er’s voice softened considerably. She glanced at Dantai Jingning, who had stopped crying, and murmured to Chu You.

"Brother, the girl said she knows you. Her name is Dantai Jingning, she’s so pitiful." The last four words were almost spoken colloquially by Bao’er.

So that’s why that girl looked familiar, we’ve met before, it was her.

"Her? Ah, yes, I do know her. Has Bao’er chit-chatted with her?"

"Yep, we did chat yesterday. She seemed really nice."

By this time, Chu You had already dressed, and casually brushed his hair. He had only one thought in mind - to get home and take a nice shower as soon as possible. Hearing Bao’er’s words, he simply smiled.

"Get off the bed, Bao’er. It’s time for us to leave."

"Oh okay, brother, do I have to go to school today?"

"Do you want to go to school, Bao’er?"

"Hmm... I don’t know."

Chu You laughed heartily at Bao’er’s adorable confusion, "Your hair is all over the place and you haven’t washed your face, just take a day off today. I’ll call your teacher in a bit."

"Alright, I’ll listen to my brother."

After putting on his shoes and shaking off his clothes, his eyes fell on the quiet girl with her head bowed and then on Bao’er. Chu You then walked over.

"Is it Soul of Funerals in the Quiet Night?" Chu You asked the frail girl without referring to her by her real name.

Dantai Jingning didn’t look at Chu You. Instead, she turned her head and looked at Chu You’s western-style pants, as if not wanting Chu You to see her current state.

"You’re awake," she replied, her tone cold.

"Yes. I also heard about what just happened. What do you plan to do?" At this point, he glanced at his watch, a simple, luxurious piece, worth about the same as a million-dollar sports car.

"Plan? I don’t know." Because I can’t see the future.

"I’m planning to create an organization in the Celestial World, not a guild, but an organization. I’ve heard you’re a pretty strong player, and I like players like that. If you’re interested, come to Tianchu Group’s headquarters and find me."

Hearing Chu You’s words, Dantai Jingning finally looked up at him, and he got another look at the girl’s face.

Compared to the last time, Chu You felt more life in her this time. She was no longer the icy fairy unaffected by worldly matters. After all, people are supposed to have emotions, right!

Dantai Jingning didn’t say anything, her expression quickly turned somber.

"My recruitment conditions may be a bit stringent, but I promise the compensation will be satisfactory. Make up your mind soon, or the offer will expire." With that, Chu You let out a faint smile, then turned to leave with Bao’er.

Just then, a cold voice came from behind, "How do I find you at the Tianchu Group?" She didn’t speak the words on her mind, which were "can you give me your phone number?"

Chu You stopped, turned to look at the girl and replied, "Just tell the security guard my name, and they’ll naturally arrange for someone to bring you to me."

"By the way, this is a secret organization. The first rule is that members must keep the existence of the organization confidential. If you decide to join, this rule will be activated for you too. Come along, don’t tell anyone, and don’t harbor any illusions!" Chu You’s tone was eerie as he finished his sentence.

He waved his hand as a gesture of goodbye, and then guided Bao’er away with a hand on her back. Bao’er waved at Dantai Jingning, shouting "Goodbye, sister Jing Ning!" Finally, the two of them really left the place.

Only the beautiful, ethereal Ice Maiden was left in the ward. This girl had just experienced a great tragedy in her life.

Why did Chu You do this? It’s intrinsically linked to his next plan. Given Dantai Jingning’s limited mobility as a disabled person, and her seeming introverted nature, her social circle is probably small. On top of that, she’s incredibly skilled in the Celestial World.

To some extent, as an interviewer, Chu You saw many advantages in Dantai Jingning’s situation.

Another significant advantage to having Dantai Jingning is that she’s easy to control!

Of course, what truly convinced Chu You to do this weren’t the conditions mentioned above, but his own feelings!

If Dantai Jingning hadn’t said what she did afterwards, even if she’d made up her mind to find Chu You at Tianchu Group later, she might never have found him. No one would bring her to see the boss of the Tianchu Group. But Dantai Jingning’s words made Chu You reveal the true nature of the organization and its rules, and truly offered her an interview.

Chu You’s decision to approach Dantai Jingning was partly influenced by Bao’er, he had to admit. This shows where Bao’er stands in Chu You’s heart. This is why Bao’er is able to pick up on other information from Chu You’s daily interactions with her.

On the way home, oh yes, they took a cab, Chu You called Lin Luor to explain why he didn’t answer his phone yesterday, as well as that his grand plan was safely executed.

Then he called Bao’er’s teacher to take a day off.

Among the missed calls, there was also one from Zhou Zhijun. However, the call came in the afternoon when Chu You was probably still in the car. Seeing that Chu You didn’t call back, Zhou Zhijun sent him a few messages, clearly stating that she wouldn’t be back tonight and would be leaving the next morning.

That’s why Bao’er didn’t receive any calls from Zhou Zhijun all night. That’s the reason.

Furthermore, Chu You noticed a call from Elder Li Yuan who had also sent some messages expressing his concern for Chu You about the terrifying incident at the annual forum, as well as worry over Chu not answering his calls. He had heard Wang Meimei’s report and knew his condition was not good at the time.

Ultimately, Chu You saw an unidentified number, which he recognized as Zhao Feiyan. She had called three times, but didn’t send any messages.

After arriving home, Chu You and Bao’er each took a bath and once everything was done, he stared at the Game Pod. In all honesty, he had a great yearning to log in to the Celestial World, but there were some pressing matters to attend to. So, he discarded that thought, deciding to play tonight instead.

He glanced at the time, it was nearly 11 am.

"Bao’er, are you hungry? Let’s go out and eat, then... you can accompany me to the Tianchu headquarters!"

My computer broke down today so I sent it for repair and took a stroll outside while I was at it. I haven’t been out for a while and just a short walk left me exhausted. I came back and slept, so today’s update is late, sorry!
