“Indeed, indeed! Boss, if you keep acting like this, you’re gonna lose me!”
“You’ll lose me too!”
“Heh…” Lin Jiage laughed coldly as if he’d heard a hilarious joke, before speaking in a tone dripping with disdain, “… You talk as if I’ve ever wanted either of you!”
Lu Benlai: “Boss! As long as you wish it to be so, I’ll be yours anytime you want!”
Xia Shangzhou: “Boss, how about tonight? I’ll help you warm your bed tonight! No, I’ll help my eight figures bank account warm its bed!”
The edges of Lin Jiage’s lips twitched upon hearing those words, and he suddenly didn’t feel like speaking to them anymore.
After copying the information, Lin Jiage shut his computer and picked up the books by the side, “We’re about to be late for class. Let’s hurry up and go.”
Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai picked up their books and followed along.
While they were walking out of the dormitory, Lu Benlai asked once more out of curiosity, “Boss, a serious question. What made you suddenly decide to take on that project?”
“That’s right—”
Before Lin Jiage could finish his words, Xia Shangzhou had already snatched the mic, “Boss, don’t tell us that you suddenly feel like you’re very poor or whatever, we aren’t three-year-old kids! No, those words wouldn’t even fool a three-year-old kid!”
“I’m being serious here, I really do think that I’m poor. Recently, I discovered a…” At this point, Lin Jiage paused for a moment. Swallowing the term ‘girl’ back into his stomach, he switched it with another phrase, “… pet who has a really huge appetite. It can easily finish off a meal meant for three all by itself. I’m a little worried that my savings won’t be enough to feed it, so I decided to work harder and bring more money back home.”
Xia Shangzhou widened his eyes in astonishment, “It can finish a meal for three by itself? What kind of ravenous pet are you raising?”
Lu Benlai’s mouth opened in shock, “Boss, are you raising a pig?”
“Hahahaha…!” Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou burst into laughter.
Just that, their laughter didn’t even survive three seconds before being abruptly cut short.
That was because their boss’s face was filled with displeasure.
Being sharp on his feet, it took a mere second for Lu Benlai to switch to an earnest expression and raise a huge thumbs up. “As expected of Boss, even your pet is so refreshing and unique!”
At the same time, Xia Shangzhou’s response came amazingly in line with Lu Benlai’s, “Boss, please tell me what kind of pet it is. I’d like to raise the same breed of pet too!”
You must be joking? How could Soft Bun possibly be a pig?
Even if she is a pig, she must be an unparalleled and one-of-a-kind pig!
So, if you’re thinking of raising one with the same breed as mine… Hehe, dream on!
With such thoughts in mind, Lin Jiage quickened his pace.
Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou continued shouting “Boss!” along the way as they hastened their footsteps to match his.
Lu Benlai: “Speaking of which, Boss, where did you go last night? Did something really happen to you?”
Xia Shangzhou: “That’s right, Boss. Don’t be like this. Without trust and honesty between us, can we still be considered as roommates? This is the first time you’ve stayed out on a school day, and I noticed that you’ve got heavy eyebags too. Clearly, you didn’t sleep at all last night! Ahh, I didn’t think you’d be such a beast! And you even caught the flu… Wait, did you actually make your move outside?”
Lu Benlai: “The heck, I’m going to get a nosebleed just thinking about it. To think that our boss would be so good at playing around!”
Good at playing around, your head!
At their mention of last night, Lin Jiage’s face immediately darkened.
He hadn’t slept a wink yesterday, but that wasn’t because he’d been busy with any intense activities.
He did stay outside, but it was just to stand at the balcony and suffer a night’s worth of cold wind.
If he had to speak about the most mystical encounter he had last night, it would be how he, a top-scorer of the Mathematics Faculty, would actually forget what 1+1 equaled to. On top of that, he, who was renowned to be ‘the inviolable existence whom everyone wanted to sleep with’, actually ended up catching a cold from bathing in cold water for too long…
