Chapter 284: Two hundred and eighty-three, substantial bonus Chapter 284: Two hundred and eighty-three, substantial bonus Liu Xin shook his head and turned to leave. He did not sympathize with Zhang Yun; as they say, pity is often accompanied by contempt. If Zhang hadn’t provoked them first, he would not have ended up in his current plight.
“Mr. Liu!”
Hearing someone calling him, Liu Xin stopped and turned around to see Yang Qi calling out to him, “Boss Yang!”
Yang Qi approached Liu Xin with a look of joy on his face, “Mr. Liu, where is your boss? I would like to see her.” He had taken Song Yan Ning’s advice and bid on those three pieces of rough. He had just cut them open, and to his surprise, one turned out to be a glass jade and the two others were Ice Type jades. His jewelry store was saved.
“Boss went back to the hotel. Do you need her for something?” Liu Xin already had a guess; surely, Yang Qi must have bid on the three pieces of rough that the boss mentioned and had them cut.
“I want to thank her, and I also want to give her a third of the jade I’ve just cut open.” Yang Qi thought of the three pieces of jade he had just unveiled and couldn’t contain his excitement. If it weren’t for Song Yan Ning’s advice, he would never have bid on those pieces, nor would he have had such good fortune.
“Then I’ll give my boss a call.” Liu Xin took out his phone and dialed. He also wanted to tell his boss about Zhang Yun’s situation; she would probably be very pleased to hear it.
“Is there something I can do for you?” Song Yan Ning’s voice came through the phone.
“Boss! Boss Yang is looking for you; he says he wants to thank you, and he wants to share the jade he’s cut open with you. Zhang Yun has already cut open that piece of rough, and it was worthless.” Liu Xin briefly explained the situation.
“Handle Boss Yang’s matter yourself, and don’t worry about the thanks,” Song Yan Ning said, confident in Liu Xin’s ability to manage affairs.
Liu Xin glanced at Yang Qi, “Understood, boss!” To Yang Qi, those three pieces of jade were precious, but Liu Xin knew that to their boss, those pieces meant very little. If she really cared, she wouldn’t have let Yang Qi have them.
Having hung up the phone, Liu Xin turned to Yang Qi, “My boss said thanks are not necessary. As for the jade, just share it as you previously agreed.” He felt that it was only right for Yang Qi to reciprocate after the boss had helped him.
“Alright.” Yang Qi was a bit disappointed. He truly wanted to thank Song Yan Ning personally. If it weren’t for her, his jewelry store would have no future. Song Yan Ning was his benefactor.
Song Yanxue entered the Emperor Realm with an excited heart. Seeing the Task Hall ahead of her, she was thrilled and walked toward it. She had thought she would start in the Basic System of the Emperor Realm, but to her surprise, she was directly placed in the Middle and High-level System. It seemed she wasn’t the first owner of this Peace Pendant.
She didn’t know how the person who gave her the Peace Pendant managed it, but they’d allowed her to utilize someone else’s pendant to enter. As far as she knew, each Peace Pendant had only one owner. Should the owner be expelled from the Emperor Realm, or perish, the system would reclaim the pendant.
Entering the Task Hall, Song Yanxue’s eyes were immediately drawn to the ranking board, and the name at the top caught her eye: Wuji. “Brother Yushen is so amazing, always ranked first.” Truly, he was the man she admired.
Upon seeing the Doctor ranked second, Song Yanxue’s expression darkened. She hadn’t forgotten how she was kicked out of the Emperor Realm. She was determined to have her revenge.
“May I team up with you?” A voice as pleasant as a spring breeze reached her ears.
Song Yanxue turned to see the speaker, a young man about the same age as Qin Yushen. Although she couldn’t see his face, the noble aura he exuded was enough to tell her that he was no ordinary person.
After considering for a moment, she nodded, “Alright.” If Brother Yushen knew she was teaming up with someone else, he might get jealous.
“I’m Ye Ying, and I’m pleased to team up with you,” Ye Ying said, extending his fair and slender hand, which seemed to beckon one to grasp it and feel its presence.
“I’m Princess,” Song Yanxue replied with a light smile, shaking hands with Ye Ying.
Ye Ying smiled as he withdrew his hand, “Let’s go take on a mission.”
“Sure!” Song Yanxue nodded. Now that she had the qualification to enter the Emperor Realm again, her family would surely call her back. As long as she could return, she would be able to see Brother Yushen. Now that she had improved so much, Brother Yushen would certainly be moved by her.
It had been a long time since Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen had entered the Emperor Realm. They had planned to deal with matters in Myanmar before heading back to their country to enter the Realm.
However, in the evening, they received a call from Qu Lingfeng, who told them that a new mission had appeared in the Emperor Realm and suggested they take a look.
Arriving at the Task Hall, Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen immediately saw the mission ranked first.
This was a role-playing task. Once accepted, the system would assign a role to the participant. Completing the task as instructed by the system and ranking first would earn a billion.
Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen had undertaken role-playing tasks before and were familiar with them, but the reward of a billion was unusually high, making them suspicious of the mission’s purpose.
“Emperor, Doctor,” Qu Lingfeng and the others greeted them as Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen approached. It had been several days since they last saw each other.
Qin Yushen and Song Yan Ning nodded, “When did this mission appear?”
“Last night. The three of us wanted to take on this mission, only to find out later that the rules required a male and a female to participate.” Qu Lingfeng was a bit frustrated. He didn’t want to find a female partner on short notice.
Even if he found someone to participate with him, without rapport, the mission would surely fail. Thus, he thought of Yushen and Song Yan Ning, given their great teamwork, they would surely complete the task.
“Several pairs went in last night, and the mission is still not completed; it seems quite challenging,” Ye Qi analyzed. He’d be inclined to give it a try if he could find the right partner.
“Are you two going to accept this mission?” Fang Jingxing asked Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen.
Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen exchanged a glance, nodded, “Take it, of course.”
“Then you must be careful,” Fang Jingxing cautioned. Though Yushen and Song Yan Ning were strong, it was still the Emperor Realm, especially with such role-playing tasks that rendered players powerless to dictate their own actions.
