As soon as Bo Wang finished speaking, Old Master Bo swung his cane at him.
Bo Wang agilely dodged the blow.
"Grandfather, did I hit a nerve? Are you so embarrassed that you’re resorting to anger?"
Old Master Bo made a show of chasing Bo Wang to strike him, but Bo Wang took three steps in two and dashed out, dodging as he ran.
The Butler stepped in to mediate, saying, "Master, the young master didn’t know any better…"
Old Master Bo watched Bo Wang’s retreating figure and snorted coldly. "You, tomorrow, make sure this boy reports to the group company. That way, he won’t be idle and think about seeking thrills through extreme sports every day."
That betrothal token could only save a life once.
Would Bo Wang be so lucky next time?
He didn’t dare to gamble on it.
The Butler respectfully replied, "Yes."
With the Butler’s support, Old Master Bo returned to his bedroom and transferred 100 million to Bo Wang’s bank account via his phone.
Bo Wang emerged from the bathroom, bare-chested and wrapped in a towel.
His hair was styled in a slightly long, flower-boy fashion.
Freshly washed, it was still damp.
With his messy hair, he casually picked up his phone from the table.
Water droplets slid down the contours of his skin.
He exuded a certain seductive charm, like a handsome man stepping out of the bath.
Bo Wang casually and effortlessly settled into a single leather armchair, then picked up the bank account details from the coffee table and transferred money to Ning Xi.
It was exactly the same account number Ning Xi had provided at the high-speed rail station.
When making the transfer, he specifically added a note:
"Repaying debt. All debts cleared."
In the neighboring villa, after washing away the dust of her journey, Ning Xi sat before the coffee table wearing a cross-collar, tie-waist long dress.
As she sat down, her long hair cascaded past her waist.
Her hair was of exceptional quality—dark, glossy, and shimmering like fine silk.
Ning Xi turned on the projector and casually selected a documentary to watch.
Back at the Taoist temple, she had seen netizens raving about crayfish as a divine delicacy.
Now in the capital, Ning Xi naturally ordered a portion of crayfish to taste this so-called divine delicacy.
Ning Xi sipped cola and savored the crayfish.
Her first day in the capital was particularly delightful.
Ding-dong!
A notification sounded from her phone.
Thinking it was a message from her Master, Ning Xi hurriedly checked, only to find…
It was a bank transfer notification.
Ning Xi glanced at it and set it aside. After finishing the crayfish, she began planning how to allocate the money.
For 100 wild fruits, she had 10,000.
When she returned to the Taoist temple, she would buy nuts or dry provisions for the animals in the mountains.
Then, she took a portion of the 100 million and donated it.
Although her Master wasn’t by her side, Ning Xi still reported every expenditure to him via WeChat.
She powered off her phone and went to sleep.
Waking up at 5:30 a.m., she freshened up and left the villa in the capital’s morning mist.
She was still dressed in a snow-white Taoist robe, her long hair pinned atop her head with an agarwood hairpin, revealing her petite face and delicate features. The small red mole beneath the corner of her right eye added an alluring, bewitching charm.
Taking a shortcut from the villa to the subway station required passing through a wetland park.
In the early morning, the wetland park was bustling with people exercising—some jogging, others dancing in the square, and some practicing Tai Chi.
As soon as Ning Xi drew her long sword, she instantly became the center of attention.
The sword and its wielder moved as one.
Wherever the blade pointed, a flash of silver light gleamed.
Her figure was as graceful as a startled swan, as elegant as a swimming dragon.
Every move and stance carried an air of otherworldly ease and spirited grace.
"This young lady's swordsmanship is excellent!"
"Is she filming a variety show?"
Bo Wang: I really want to know, am I actually the male lead?
Master Meng Wuyou: Survival of the fittest, understand?
