Chapter 106: Chapter 90: The Related Customer Xiao Qin, Second Limit Choices (First Update!)_3
"Thank you, Brother Huo, sorry for the trouble. I’ll treat you to a meal someday!"
The thirty-something secretary Huo adjusted his glasses and smiled:
"I’ll take that seriously. When you get into a top academy in the Urban Circle, I’ll make sure you bleed a bit and have a good feast."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Qin Shi closed the car door and only turned around after Chen Ruofu’s official car had driven away.
"Xiao! Are you okay?"
"Which leader’s car from the Urban Circle? Why did it bring you back?"
"Oh dear, is it a family member of a classmate..."
The elderly couple from the small shop surrounded Qin Shi, curiously bombarding him with questions.
Despite the Dongxia Republic having been established for nine millennia, with the old emperors and nobles long abolished, people still had a strong admiration and significant awe towards official positions and privileges.
"What’s the noise about? Asking this and that! Someone from the community is here to notify you to collect your own fridge and TV. Hurry up, or they might be taken by someone else!"
In the critical moment, it was Aunt Zhou who, with a loud and vigorous shout, dispersed the gossiping neighbors.
"Xiao, your sister is back. You child, staying out late without leaving a note, making your sister worry for a while."
Aunt Zhou handed a soda to Qin Shi, pressing it into his hand:
"You haven’t had breakfast yet, have you? Let Zhou Ning buy some pancakes, buns, and steamed dumplings, and bring them to your home later." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Qin Shi smiled as he took the soda and walked towards his sister and the youngest.
"Sis, I’m fine."
"Alright, let’s go home."
Qin Xiao finally felt relieved, holding Qin Shi with one hand while being clung to by the youngest, Qin Lan, on the other.
The three returned to the shanty house in the alley of Baogong Street.
...
...
At the factory, the sun tilted westward.
Gao Haipeng, with a grim face, was counting the electrical appliances as the old man babbled incessantly:
"Comrade, my washing machine was fine before, now it’s broken. Is there any compensation?"
Suppressing his anger, the inspector from the Operations Department, Gao Haipeng, replied:
"Compensation measures should be discussed with the manufacturer and communicated with the department in Dangyang East Suburb. It’s not within my jurisdiction..."
The old man relentlessly reminisced about how the washing machine, bought on his wedding day twenty years ago, carried significant sentimental value.
"Enough! I’ll personally compensate you with a new washing machine!"
Unable to endure any longer, Gao Haipeng threw a wad of cash into the old man’s hand and then kicked the old machine harshly to vent his pent-up fury.
Damn Qin Renying! Helping him out, yet he got himself involved instead!
Offending Chen Ruofu, the big shot of the Inspection Department, face to face — is there any chance of advancement left?
He might even be assigned to watch over a pond in a few days!
"Comrade! My fridge is sturdy too! Kick it a couple of times; I’ve been wanting to replace it with a new one..."
Seeing Gao Haipeng kick the washing machine and offer substantial compensation, the old men and women from Old Factory Street, who had fought their way out of supermarket sales frenzies, immediately surrounded him.
"This is really unlucky..."
Gao Haipeng, despite his abundant life force, couldn’t fend off the overwhelming crowd.
"Inspector Gao’s side seems quite lively."
After bustling around all day and finally wrapping things up, Chen Yun glanced at Gao Haipeng, trapped in his hellish predicament, and sneered:
"Let’s call it a day."
...
...
Night fell.
After explaining everything to his sister Qin Xiao and the youngest Qin Lan, Qin Shi finally returned to his bedroom.
"Even the alarm clock ran away. The Electronic Demon really has no humanity! Luckily, we’re moving soon..."
He muttered a few words to himself, then sat cross-legged on the bed, slowly evening out his breath.
Through the expansion of his breath, he completely discarded the various thoughts filling his brain.
"Didn’t expect the Second Limit of the physical body to be not the ’Bone Barrier’ assigned by Lao Liang."
Clearing his consciousness, Qin Shi naturally entered the Palace of Thought, and the Void Space seemed to expand again, transforming into a vividly real small world.
He saw another "himself."
"Divine Barrier Limit, seeing the divine in the void... The most difficult step, and I managed to take it?"
