Everyone present literally watched you stuff the core fragments into your own pocket!
There is video evidence!
Shen Hong’s old face darkened. Couldn’t you at least find a slightly better excuse to fob me off?
So blatant?
What? What happened? Don’t know anything?
Triple confusion combo?
You’re making this really hard for me!
Shen Hong gave a bitter laugh. “You can’t do this! What use are those things to you? I don’t have…”
Jiang Nan whipped out his phone. “Hello? Sister Lynx? What? You missed me?”
“How much did you miss me? Oh my god, that much?”
As he spoke, he made a shushing gesture at Shen Hong, then teleported to a quieter spot nearby!
Xia Yao and Zhong Yingxue were snickering!
As if Lynx would ever talk to Jiang Nan like that!
[Resentment value from Shen Hong +666!]
Mate, your phone is backwards!
You’re holding the home button to your ear. What call are you answering!
He clearly has no intention of handing them over!
Shen Hong also pulled out his phone and hammered a call through!
“Hello? Brother Xuan! You have to stand up for me…”
Meanwhile, Jiang Nan really did ring Lynx!
Jiangcheng Base, Captain’s Office!
Lynx sat at her desk, brows furrowed with worry!
On the desk lay a top-secret file with a red cover, to be burned after reading!
Her phone suddenly rang. Lynx’s frown deepened!
But when she saw it was Jiang Nan calling, her eyes instantly lit up. Her brows unconsciously relaxed!
Even the corners of her mouth curved upwards. She looked a little delighted, a little happy!
She took a deep breath, answered, and kept her tone calm!
“What is it?”
Jiang Nan: “Hello? Sister Lynx? Have you been missing me so much you can’t sleep?”
Lynx: “No! What do you want?”
Jiang Nan pouted. “I just need you to sort out an ID for me. Put it under Wu Liang’s family registry. Name: Xiong Er!”
Lynx paused. What is this kid up to now?
But she didn’t ask!
“Fine! How do I get it to you?”
“I’m in Baishan. Flying back to Rongcheng from Jiangcheng this morning. Send someone to the airport!”
“Got it! Beep beep beep~”
Jiang Nan stared at the hung-up call, pouting!
Hmph! She didn’t miss me at all!
As soon as he ended the call, an unknown number rang!
Jiang Nan answered, puzzled!
“I’m Xiao Chuohuo! Hand the core fragments over. What use are they to you?”
Shen Hong, standing nearby, stared at Jiang Nan with eager eyes!
He had called Chen Xuan, who called Yang Jian, who called Xiao Chuohuo. After many twists and turns, they finally found someone who could rein Jiang Nan in!
Jiang Nan grinned. He had been waiting for this call!
“Hand them over! I never said I wouldn’t! By the way, Dean Xiao, I’ve scouted a talent for our academy! How about slotting him into our class?”
Xiao Chuohuo rolled his eyes. He knew this kid would bargain!
“What kind of talent? Let me tell you, our academy doesn’t accept just anyone. They have to be outstanding!”
Jiang Nan: “Wu Liang’s twin brother! 18 years old! Beast Transformation type! Platinum one!”
Xiao Chuohuo’s eyes widened!
An 18-year-old Platinum one? What kind of monstrous talent?
The higher the rank, the harder it is to level up. Even the senior students at the academy were mostly stuck at Gold!
Platinum?
“Approved! Wait… isn’t Wu Liang an only child? He has a brother?”
Jiang Nan: “Ah~ he will soon. Don’t worry!”
Xiao Chuohuo hung up, completely baffled!
What does “he will soon” mean?
Something’s off! Definitely off!
“Sigh~ I only had one day of peace…”
After sorting Xiong Er’s business, Jiang Nan returned beaming. “Oh! Brother Shen, I suddenly remembered I picked up three white stones in the Spirit Ruins!”
“Could those be the core fragments you mentioned?”
Shen Hong covered his face!
How could I possibly ignore your Oscar-worthy performance?
Am I supposed to have lived all these years for nothing?
He instantly grew excited. “Really? Then it must be them! Quick, take them out and let’s see!”
Jiang Nan produced them!
“Yes yes yes! This is exactly it!”
“Is it really? What a coincidence! My god, Brother Shen, your eyesight is amazing!”
“No kidding! What luck, Brother Jiang!”
Everyone watched speechlessly as the two put on a mutual acting masterclass, showering each other with tactical praise…
Oscar! Little golden man! Deserved!
After handing the core fragments to Shen Hong, the nursing home volunteers refused all media interviews!
After all, the nursing home always adhered to a low-key approach!
The volunteers boarded the airport bus, ready to head straight to Jiangcheng Airport!
But Jiang Nan never got on!
Instead, he wandered around the settlement area, looking for someone!
He spotted Zhou Yuqing sitting in a corner, wrapped in a blanket, looking a bit lost!
He teleported right over!
The moment Zhou Yuqing saw Jiang Nan, her eyes lit up. “Brother Jiang Nan! You’re out too? Inside…”
Jiang Nan: “Shh! Big brother has to leave soon! This is for you!”
As he spoke, he stuffed a small cloth pouch into her arms!
“This… what is it?”
Jiang Nan grinned. “Study power-up gift pack! Study hard and become a proper volunteer soon!”
Zhou Yuqing looked baffled. “Huh? Do I have to become a volunteer?”
Jiang Nan: (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
With that, he teleported back onto the bus!
Xu Que excitedly ran over and nudged Zhou Yuqing with her shoulder!
(ಡｖಡ)
“Xiao Qing, was that God Nan just now? Came specially to see you? Even gave you a little gift? Does he… hehehe~ grab the chance!”
Zhou Yuqing blushed. “Nonsense! He sees me as a little sister!”
She opened the pouch Jiang Nan had given her!
In that instant, both of their expressions froze, faces filled with shock!
The little pouch contained a full 50 Gold-rank spirit beads!
Exactly the ones Jiang Nan had harvested from the Cang Dragon horde!
“Oh my god! This… he…”
Zhou Yuqing was so shocked she couldn’t form words. Even one Gold-rank spirit bead was worth a fortune!
Fifty of them?
That’s one hell of a “study gift pack”!
Xu Que’s little face went pale with shock. She hurriedly covered it. “Quick! Hide it! Don’t let anyone see!”
Zhou Yuqing tremblingly tucked the pouch inside her clothes, her heart pounding!
This gift was far too precious!
She wanted to thank Jiang Nan, but the bus had already driven off!
She bit her lip hard, eyes growing moist!
On the bus!
Jiang Nan gazed at the scenery outside, a smile on his lips!
When he had just left the orphanage, Aunt Zhou and little Yuqing had helped him so much!
They always brought him food. Sometimes they even brought back leftover skewers that customers hadn’t finished!
Jiang Nan remembered every single act of kindness anyone had ever shown him!
Fifty Gold-rank spirit beads meant nothing to him now, but they could greatly improve the mother and daughter’s lives!
He couldn’t control how others lived, but he wanted everyone who had been good to him to live well!
“Bzzz~ bzzz~ bzzz~”
His phone suddenly went into crazy vibration mode!
Qin Shou’s phone in the front row was also vibrating like mad!
Glasses Guy and Du Yue instantly tensed up at the sound, cold sweat pouring, looking like they had done something guilty!
Jiang Nan had a bad feeling!
He checked his phone!
As expected, Weibo notifications 99+! Countless mentions!
He opened it and saw the trending list. The top video, posted just three minutes ago, already had over two million views!
Title: Pacifier War God levels up to Onion-Swinging War God! Gold rank soloing Cang Dragon horde underwater. Ever seen fish soup being made?
Jiang Nan’s little face darkened!
Onion-Swinging War God my arse! That’s even worse than Pacifier War God!
He was about to check the comments!
But another video shot straight to number one! Over five million views in three minutes, overtaking the Onion-Swinging War God!
Title: Ghost Animal District ancestor returns! Crash King! New cow herd entertainment program! Graze! Sleep! Play volleyball! Take it and go!
The video was exactly Qin Shou being used as a volleyball and spiked until he vomited blood!
Even the fake Spring Onion Explosion Despair Slash was included!
The two videos battled back and forth for the top spot on the trending list!
Qin Shou let out a tragic scream that echoed through the bus, face filled with grief and indignation!
“You absolute couple of dogs! I’ll kill you! Kill you both!”
