Chapter 271: Are You Really This Determined?
In the second week after internal testing began, the sun set in the west and night fell.
In Pei Ningle’s apartment, one man and four women finally achieved the feat of three consecutive wins. Of course, before that, they had been playing wins and losses all day, with who knows how many rounds.
“Xiao Xun is so awesome, only died twice, and so many assists…” At this point, Han Yixuan glanced at Wang Heng and said softly, “More than the support.”
Wang Heng: “I didn’t die even once.”
Lu Qi couldn’t help but sigh: “Not dying even once is enough to show how good you are at mixing.”
Wang Heng: “…”
At this time, Ye Xun sighed somewhat melancholy: “Today is the last time. Tomorrow, I won’t come.”
Pei Ningle couldn’t help but ask: “What do you mean? Xiao Xun doesn’t want to play anymore?”
Ye Xun: “Of course I still want to play, but I have to go to class.”
“But it’s only July…” Halfway through, Pei Ningle suddenly remembered, “Oh right, third year of senior high school starts supplementary classes early, right?”
Ye Xun said wistfully: “Xiao Le Jie, you’ve been through third year of senior high school, you should know.”
Pei Ningle: “Eh hey, forgot.”
Ye Xun picked up the bottle of cola next to her that was no longer very cold and drank the last sip. Then the young girl looked around, her brows lightly furrowed, with some reluctance in her eyes.
Lu Qi said: “You’re just going back to prepare for Gaokao, no need to make it like life and death parting, right?”
Ye Xun: “But this preparation is a whole year…”
Han Yixuan suddenly stood up and clapped her hands: “How about this, tonight we all send Xiao Xun back together, okay?”
Ye Xun touched the tip of her nose, seeming a bit embarrassed: “No need to trouble everyone, I can go back by myself.”
At this time, the silent Wang Heng suddenly noticed that Ye Xun’s gaze fell on his face, quietly giving him a look.
Does this mean she hopes I send her back?
Thinking carefully, if Ye Xun has to focus on preparing for Gaokao for the next whole year, concentrating on studying with no time for anything else, then this girl is undoubtedly the one with the smallest threat, even safer than Pei Ningle.
So he nodded silently and discreetly.
After getting the secret promise, Ye Xun stood up and said goodbye.
Then just as she went out the door, Wang Heng quickly followed, but before he could speak, Lu Qi spoke first:
“No need to take the subway, I happen to be going home too, I’ll drive you back, it’s on the way.”
Han Yixuan also followed: “Then thank you, Sister Lu.”
Pei Ningle watched the four people walk out the door and suddenly reacted: “You’re all leaving?”
“Yeah, Xiao Le goodnight.”
“Sleep early oh.”
Lu Qi and Han Yixuan said in unison.
————
At everyone’s unanimous request, Lu Qi first dropped Wang Heng off at the school gate, then sent Han Yixuan and Ye Xun.
This way, how they schemed on the road, Wang Heng had no way of knowing.
Walking downstairs of the dormitory building, Wang Heng saw a very conspicuous notice on the bulletin board, notifying students that most dormitory buildings would be closed during the holiday, including the one Wang Heng was in.
“That means rent a house… whatever, just buy one.”
Wang Heng went upstairs back to the dormitory, opened the computer and looked at the information on the housing platform. And at this time, Lu Qi’s phone call came in.
“Hello,” the older sister type’s voice seemed a bit fatigued, “For tomorrow evening’s World Cup Final, do you have a team you’re optimistic about?”
Wang Heng hesitated for a moment.
Obviously, since the Sakura Island trip, Lu Qi had some guesses. But just how much this sister had guessed, that was unknown.
Wang Heng: “Long-term gambling must lose, Sister Lu.”
Lu Qi chuckled: “Others will lose, but you won’t.”
Wang Heng: “But I’m just an ordinary person.”
Lu Qi suddenly lowered her voice: “Yeah, I know you’re ordinary, just exceptionally accurate at guessing things, as for the rest… I know nothing.”
The meaning of this is that no matter what secret Wang Heng has, she won’t talk nonsense?
Wang Heng pondered for a moment, then slowly said: “Then I can only say, for this World Cup Final… I think they’ll draw within ninety minutes, because the two sides’ strength is quite close.”
Lu Qi: “Got it, thanks. Then I won’t disturb your rest, sleep early.”
“Mm, goodnight.”
After saying that, Wang Heng hung up the phone.
Then he turned his head to look at the cage next to him and said: “The school dormitory building is closing for summer vacation, we have to move out.”
Hamster: “Okay.”
Wang Heng: “So I plan to buy a house tomorrow.”
Hamster: “Do you need to mention something this small?”
Wang Heng patted the table: “Hey hey hey, buying a house is small?”
Hamster sighed: “As a reincarnator, after more than a year, you only just managed to buy a house, are you proud of that?”
“That’s because most of my funds are reserved for other things,” at this point, Wang Heng suddenly realized a problem, “If I start a company now, it seems a bit inconvenient.”
Hamster: “What’s inconvenient?”
Wang Heng: “Although I said I wanted Han Yixuan to be my assistant, that girl is still too young, no experience, if I start a company now I’m afraid…”
Hamster nodded its little head: “Right, she can’t help much now. So if you really want to set up a company, you need to recruit professionals from the market to help. Don’t look at recruitment websites, for this kind of senior talent you need to find a headhunting company.”
Wang Heng yawned and said: “Okay okay, going to sleep first.”
————
The World Cup finally came to an end.
Wang Heng turned his three million assets from before the group stage into seventy million now. This short one-month period was undoubtedly a huge opportunity window for a reincarnator.
Holding seventy million in funds, Wang Heng first bought a house in a residential area near the school. Of course, not together with Pei Ningle’s apartment, separated by two streets.
This was a newly developed mid-to-high-end residential area, where each building was only eight stories, with elevator right at the door, very convenient, and the property service was also thoughtful. Even more importantly, the previous owner had already finished the interior decoration, it had been airing out and was almost ready, but hadn’t moved in yet due to urgent need for money and had to sell, so interior decoration and furniture were complete and brand new.
After spending over a million to buy it, Wang Heng moved in with his schoolbag. Except for needing to buy some daily necessities from the supermarket, he almost didn’t need to worry about anything else.
Placing the cage on the ground and lifting the small cage door, Wang Heng smiled: “Alright, you can come out and run around freely, just be careful not to fall into the drain.”
The hamster came out of the cage, rolled two laps on the smooth clean floor, and stretched lazily in comfort.
At this time, Wang Heng’s mobile phone ringtone rang.
He answered the call and heard a sweet female voice say: “Hello, is this Mr. Wang? I’m Xiao Zeng from the headhunting company. Regarding the administrative assistant you entrusted us to find, there are some specific standards that may need to be confirmed with you again.”
Wang Heng: “What standards?”
Xiao Zeng: “For example, main job content, and the gender of the candidate…”
Wang Heng: “Oh, male.”
Xiao Zeng: “?”
Wang Heng: “I said, male, is there a problem?”
Xiao Zeng: “…Are you so sure?”
