Chapter 24 Assassination



Life gradually returned to normal after the college entrance examination.

In the past few days, Huo Ling has also been chatting with Jiang Wuyuan on the bracelet, mainly trying to invite him out for a walk.

Despite Huo Ling's persistent "harassment," Jiang Wuyuan finally accepted his invitation.

Huo Ling arranged to meet at a commercial street.

This was Jiang Wuyuan's first time going out shopping.

Such entertainment was not part of his daily life.

However, after the college entrance examination was over and he entered his desired university, Jiang Wuyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So since Huo Ling wants to go, let's go together.

After packing his things and storing his weapons in his spatial ring, Jiang Wuyuan went out to meet up with Huo Ling.

Huo Ling said he would have someone drive to pick him up at the entrance of Chonghua Community.

After enjoying the young master-level pick-up and drop-off service once again, Jiang Wuyuan arrived at the most famous commercial street in Shanhai City.

Guangming Street.

The buildings here perfectly match their name, all boasting a magnificent and opulent appearance.

It is said that at night, countless golden lights illuminate this place, making it extremely dazzling.

As soon as I got out of the car, Huo Ling came over.

His once-flamboyant red hair, now styled, revealed a smooth forehead, and his red and black casual attire made him appear dashing and upright.

"Ice Cube, first of all, congratulations on getting into university." Huo Ling smiled broadly. "I didn't expect that you would already be in university before the college entrance examination results were even officially released."

Jiang Wuyuan nodded in response, "Your grades are also very good, so you can definitely choose the university you like."

Huo Ling raised his head and snorted proudly, "Of course."

Jiang Wuyuan was used to his appearance and walked alongside him on the street.

Huo Ling's invitation to Jiang Wuyuan this time wasn't entirely for casual strolling.

The main reason is that Jiang Wuyuan usually seems completely indifferent to life—except for cooking.

As for clothes and shoes, as long as they can still be worn, even if they have holes, they will mend them and not care about anything else.

Huo Ling knew about Jiang Wuyuan's background, so he understood this kind of straightforward behavior.

But as this year's top scorer in the country and also a half-Huo family member, Huo Ling naturally hoped that Jiang Wuyuan could present his best image to the senior students at the university.

So, Huo Ling took Jiang Wuyuan out shopping.

He took Jiang Wuyuan to the store where he usually bought clothes.

The staff here are very familiar with Huo Ling's face; after all, he is one of their biggest customers, and they absolutely cannot neglect him.

"Welcome, Young Master Huo." The receptionist, with her refined features, smiled warmly and happily. "What would you like to buy today?"

"Hey, this is my good brother, his surname is Jiang." Huo Ling put his arm around Jiang Wuyuan's shoulder and said with a grin, "I'll help him pick out clothes today."

"Okay, please have a seat. We'll pick out some clothes that suit Young Master Jiang right away," the waitress said respectfully.

This shop has its own designers who can create the most suitable outfits for Jiang Wuyuan just by looking at his figure and physique.

After all, it's a high-end brand. Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Wuyuan forced himself to understand and accept it.

He had just found out that Huo Ling had asked him out to buy him clothes.

Soon, rows of matching clothes were hung on hangers and pushed in front of the two of them.

Huo Ling picked and chose, urging Jiang Wuyuan to try on several sets.

It has to be said that Jiang Wuyuan is a natural clothes hanger.

He looked slim in clothes but muscular underneath, and with that handsome face, even the waitress next to him couldn't help but show an admiring expression.

"Pack up the ones you just tried on. Hmm... it seems like we don't have enough." Huo Ling looked Jiang Wuyuan up and down. "Pack up all the clothes you picked out. I'll give you an address in a bit, and you can arrange for someone to deliver them."

The waitress replied respectfully, "Yes, Young Master Huo, the total is 500,000 gold coins."

Jiang Wuyuan's lips twitched.

He truly lives up to his reputation as a young master.

"I'll do it." Jiang Wuyuan took out his card.

He can still afford to spend that money.

Huo Ling raised his hand to block it and handed his card to the waitress: "Swipe this."

The waitress took the card with both hands and quickly left the scene.

"Ice Cube, I was the one who insisted on bringing you to buy clothes, so of course it's my treat." Huo Ling, afraid that Jiang Wuyuan would feel uncomfortable, put his arm around his shoulder with a smile, "This is also my father's idea, so you don't need to worry about it."

Jiang Wuyuan didn't say anything, but he kept it all in his heart: "Please thank Uncle Huo for me."

Huo Ling pouted: "Aren't you going to thank me?"

"...Thank you very much." Jiang Wuyuan said helplessly.

The two strolled along Guangming Street until late at night.

Since they were two boys, there weren't any strict curfew times.

After having a late-night snack, Jiang Wuyuan finally decided to take his leave.

"It's getting late, you should go home soon, don't worry Uncle Huo." Jiang Wuyuan saw him into the car.

"Are you sure you don't need me to arrange for someone to take you home?" Huo Ling asked with some concern. "It's no trouble at all, just a matter of taking you home."

"No need," Jiang Wuyuan shook his head and refused. "See you next time, Huo Ling."

"Okay. Bye-bye! Message me when you get home!" Huo Ling, in his own car driven by his driver, quickly disappeared from Jiang Wuyuan's sight.

He now truly treats Jiang Wu like his own younger brother.

—Although Jiang Wuyuan is stronger than him.

After Huo Ling left, Jiang Wuyuan glanced discreetly in a certain direction behind him, and then slowly made his way towards Chonghua Residential Area.

Some people couldn't hold back any longer.
