After the Hundred Regiments Competition ended, Cheng Huaijin once again became a prominent figure.
Xue Bingna also gained some attention this time, and even accompanied Cheng Huaijin to several media interviews.
For this reason, Cheng Huaijin specially bought several small hair clips for Xue Bingna to choose from.
Today, an old acquaintance came to visit.
"Boss Li!!" Cheng Huaijin rushed out of the classroom with her bag slung over her shoulder. The course schedule was a bit tight, and she was afraid she wouldn't have enough time.
I bumped into a stunningly beautiful woman—no, a handsome man—as soon as I stepped outside.
This handsome man is none other than Li Cai, the owner of the Overlord Pet Training Center.
"It's been a long time, Cheng Huaijin. How have you been lately? I was..." Li Cai was smiling when Cheng Huaijin interrupted him apologetically.
"Sorry, boss, I have class and I'm late. I'll contact you after class!"
Boss Li winked and waved in the direction Cheng Huaijin disappeared: "I'll be waiting for you~"
Passing students all turned to look, wondering what connection this person had with Cheng Shen.
Li Cai remained calm and composed, showing no discomfort whatsoever from the stares of the crowd. He brushed his bangs aside, took out a mirror, and looked at himself.
Yes, not bad, I look gorgeous today too!
At noon, Li Cai arranged to meet Cheng Huaijin at the restaurant next door.
"I didn't expect you to make a name for yourself in Huacheng so quickly," Li Cai exclaimed. "I was right to have judged you!"
Cheng Huaijin also sighed, "Back in Dongcheng, I was so grateful to Boss Li, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to go to school."
The two exchanged a smile, recalling their first meeting in Dongcheng City.
Li Cai said, "It's also because you have the ability. I've helped many people, but there aren't many as outstanding as you."
Cheng Huaijin wondered if she wanted something from him.
Given Li Cai's wealth and connections to the Oriental Beast Taming Group, what problems could he possibly have that require Cheng Huaijin's help?
Cheng Huaijin was always very sincere to those who had helped her. She asked directly, "Mr. Li, I owe my success today to your care. If there's anything I can help with, please don't hesitate to ask."
Li Cai's eyes lit up: "Good boy! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"
Cheng Huaijin: ...Good boy? Does this title lower my seniority?
Li Cai continued, "I'm going to tell you a big secret, but don't tell anyone else."
Cheng Huaijin immediately refused: "I don't want to hear secrets."
"I am Wang Qidong's illegitimate son."
Cheng Huaijin's jaw nearly dropped: "Wang Qidong? The CEO of the Oriental Beast Taming Group?"
"Yes, I am his illegitimate son. He is dying, and everyone is fighting over his inheritance. I want to fight for it too. Please help me!"
"Me?" Cheng Huaijin asked suspiciously, "Help you fight for the family fortune?"
Li Cai's eyes were incredibly sincere: "You don't have to do anything. Just accept my invitation and join the Eastern Beast Taming Group's club. Isn't becoming a professional beast tamer your wish too? You can help me out while you're at it, perfect!"
"Let me sort this out." Cheng Huaijin was a little confused by his rapid-fire words.
Li Cai explained, "With your skills, you're perfectly capable of applying to register for professional competitions. But to play professionally, you need a club. Join the Eastern Beast Taming Club and be on my team. This will not only increase my chances of winning the inheritance but also fulfill your own wish. It's a win-win situation!"
“But I’m afraid your family affairs will affect me, after all, this is the Oriental Beast Taming Group.” Cheng Huaijin said with a clear refusal.
Li Cai: "Aren't you going to try to hide it at all? Is it really okay to be so blunt?"
Cheng Huaijin: "You know, I'm very afraid of getting into trouble."
Li Cai: "Haven't you caused enough trouble already?"
Cheng Huaijin: "...Oh, right."
Li Cai raised his hand and swore: "I guarantee that as long as you join the club, you don't need to worry about anything else. Besides, I'm not fighting for the family fortune. I'm just siding with my older sister. I help her, and she gives me some meat soup."
"Your older sister?"
Li Cai said mysteriously, "It's my eldest sister."
Cheng Huaijin looked at the thumbs-up he had raised and fell into deep thought.
Why does Boss Li look even dumber now?
Under Li Cai's strong persuasion, Cheng Huaijin joined the Oriental Beast Taming Group Club and registered as a professional beast taming fighter.
The salary was calculated as an annual wage, and the benefits left Cheng Huaijin speechless.
How extravagant!
The newly added club assistant, Bubble, is a sweet AI.
[Bubble: Beastmaster Cheng Huaijin, hello. There's a competition on Changye Star in three months. Would you like to know more about it?]
Cheng Huaijin: Sure, I'll look into it.
[Bubble: Please check the competition rules for the 52nd Beast Taming Battle Grand Prix - Galaxy Region. If you would like to register, please contact Bubble. Have a nice day!]
Beast Taming Battle Grand Prix? Galaxy Division?
Of course I'll participate!
Cheng Huaijin carefully read the competition instructions. It was the same old routine: three pet beasts would take the field, and the one who fought to the end would be the winner.
Sign up!
Long Night Star, here I come!
The club even reimbursed me for the competition and gave me a company-funded trip, hahaha~
Cheng Huaijin happily registered, only to suddenly realize he was about to be late!
Oh no, the herbal medicine practice session is starting in two minutes!
