The atmosphere in the room suddenly became strange.
Yan Dongxu knew it was sheep whip, and was dumbfounded.
He had only heard of it, but never seen it before.
Can this stuff really be eaten?
"Qingqing, why did you buy this stuff?"
Du Sen had already noticed it during the hot pot, but was too shy to say anything.
"It's to supplement him, don't you think he looks a little dark around the temples, lacking in yang energy? It's clearly a sign of kidney deficiency."
Xu Yiyi gave a reasonable explanation.
"Uh... indeed. Brother Yan, you should exercise more often."
"Exercise is the best medicine. Look at me, I don't need to eat this stuff."
Du Sen spoke with a smug look on his face.
If this guy wasn't bigger than him, Yan Dongxu really wanted to compare physiques with Du Sen.
What he said was too annoying!
He knew Du Sen wanted to impress Zhao Qingqing.
But comparing him to show off was a bit too much.
This concerned a man's dignity.
"Of course I'm not as robust as Brother Du. Brother Du has the special ability of fire."
Yan Dongxu sighed, being a little sarcastic.
"Is it two kinds of fire? Hurry up and eat it. Yiyi, keep an eye on him."
Zhao Qingqing instructed Xu Yiyi to watch Yan Dongxu eat the sheep whip.
Xu Yiyi stared at Yan Dongxu, her small face flushed red.
Seeing Xu Yiyi looking affectionately at Yan Dongxu, a trace of bitterness was added to the smile on Zhao Qingqing's face.
"Sister Zhao, shall we drink?"
Xu Lu clinked glasses with her, seeming to see through her thoughts.
Perhaps the two had similar feelings at the moment, and could sense each other.
【Oh Yan Dongxu, I hate you.】
【It must be hard for him to choose with so many girls that like him.】
【Who do you think he is most likely to be with?】
【Likely? He's just a scumbag. Let's just watch for fun.】
【I rather hope that Officer Zhao ends up with Du Sen.】
【Officer Zhao is a police beauty. She is just struggling over choosing the one she loves or the one who loves her.】
【Stop minding other's business. All three beauties are mine.】
...
The barrage was still heatedly discussing.
Just then, Yan Dongxu's phone suddenly rang.
The three girls instinctively looked over.
Yan Dongxu instantly felt a strong sense of pressure.
"Wha...what is it? I just got a message, why are you all staring at me?"
In that instant, he had a guilty feeling of being caught cheating.
He didn't even dare to look at his phone.
He took a glance at the screen and saw it was a message from Zhou Quan.
"It was a message from my childhood friend Zhou Quan, a guy!"
Yan Dongxu stressed the last two words.
Then he opened the voice message Zhou Quan sent.
"Xuzi, I saw your livestream. Don't blame her for buying you sheep whip. When we meet, I wanted to tell you, you look a little weak."
"Keep practicing breathing exercises, it will greatly improve your health. As a brother, I will teach you another secret method, absorbing yin to nourish yang..."
As Yan Dongxu listened, it sounded more and more inappropriate, so he hurriedly turned off the message.
Since he didn't have earphones in, but had turned on speaker, everyone in the room heard it.
The atmosphere was very awkward.
"Your brother treats you well, teaching you everything." Xu Lu teased him sarcastically.
"There's a saying, birds of a feather flock together." Zhao Qingqing rolled her eyes at Yan Dongxu.
【What a good brother, stabbing you at a critical moment, haha.】
【I have a friend who wants to learn the secret method.】
【Good stuff should be shared.】
【Breathing exercises? Your brother is teaching you Taoist arts?】
【Oh no, the ten sheep whips today were eaten for nothing.】
...
"Hurry up and eat it!" Zhao Qingqing said fiercely, intentionally teasing him.
Yan Dongxu knew there was no getting out of this. He picked one up and started eating it.
The strange texture coupled with the faint pork kidney taste made him question his life choices.
But he had heard this stuff was very nutritious, so he decided to just go for it.
"Zhou Quan? Isn't that the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master who was in the news with you these past two days?" Du Sen asked excitedly.
"Yeah? What about it?" Yan Dongxu asked while eating.
"He...he's your childhood friend?" Du Sen was even more excited.
"What's there to doubt? Or should I make a video call to confirm?" Today we were still together."
Yan Dongxu didn't understand why Du Sen was so excited.
"Can...can you really?" He's my idol!" Du Sen was so excited he started stuttering.
"What the hell? Did I hear that right? He's your fan? What's so great about that kid?"
Yan Dongxu thought Du Sen was joking.
"Uh...there's a lot you don't know. How amazing the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master is."
"Headquarters offered him an annual salary of 10 million to come be an elder. He refused."
"We superhumans all want to get guidance from him."
Du Sen said very seriously.
Cough! Cough cough cough!
When Yan Dongxu heard Du Sen's words, he choked directly.
"10 million annual salary? Is that true?"
"Of course it's true! Headquarters is cheap too, someone of his level, 10 million is nothing."
Yan Dongxu: "..."
He had heard Zhou Quan mention this before, but didn't ask for details, thinking the Superhuman Headquarters was only offering Zhou Quan a few thousand a month.
He only found out now that million needed to be added after that.
Zhou Quan came from a rich family, but refusing an annual salary of 10 million was a bit over the top.
Zhou Quan didn't care for the money, but he was very tempted by it.
"Uh...if I get Zhou Quan to go be an elder at your place, could I get a finder's fee?"
Yan Dongxu directly spoke his mind.
He directly told the audience his thoughts.
"This..." Du Sen looked troubled, "I'd have to discuss with the leadership. As for approval..."
"Alright then!" Seeing his reaction, Yan Dongxu knew it was unlikely, and got excited for nothing.
Ring ring ring!
Not long after they finished speaking, Du Sen's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello, Commander Zhao."
"Mm...I understand. Okay. I'll hang up first."
After hanging up the call, Du Sen woodenly said, "The Commander just said that if you can persuade Zhou Quan, headquarters is willing to give you 5 million."
Suck!
The three women at the table gasped.
Giving 5 million just like that? This was too generous.
"Really? I'll call him right now!" Yan Dongxu excitedly dialed Zhou Quan's number.
"Hey, Quanzi, let me tell you something."
"Big brother, I'm watching the livestream. I know already."
"Haha, good that you know, I won't waste time. How about coming to work at Superhuman Headquarters tomorrow?"
"Oh, since big brother has spoken, how can I refuse? Then I'll go."
"Great. Get some rest early, I'll hang up first."
"Mm, okay. But you have to look at the secret method I gave you. It really works. Everyone who has tried it says it's good."
"Go to hell!"
Yan Dongxu cursed and immediately hung up.
The few people around were confused, while Du Sen was so excited his chest was heaving. He directly hugged Yan Dongxu up.
"My god! Thank you so much. You've made a huge contribution to our Superhuman Headquarters!"
"Brother Du, I don't know about contribution, but if you don't let go, I'll suffocate." Yan Dongxu said breathlessly.
