Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start - Chapter 425
Chapter 425: New Teammate
Kaiyang City, wealthy district.
Looking at the surrounding magnificent buildings, Lin Xiang’s expression became strange.
“Brother Wang, are you sure the person who spread the rumors is here?”
Lin Xiang went to Wang Xiao’s side and asked softly, “The people who can live here are either rich or noble. How did you offend such a big shot?”
“Who knows? Maybe he thinks my attitude is bad?”
Wang Xiao shrugged as if nothing had happened. As he spoke, he stopped in front of an ancient door made of Iron Core Wood.
puzzled expression. “This is the home of Qin Kaiyang and the head of the Qin
middle-aged man stuck his head out sleepily.
“Hello, what’s the matter?”
The middle-aged man asked in a daze. As soon as he finished speaking, he recognized Wang Xiao. His eyes lit up and he smiled. “It’s you. Are you here to look for the head of the Qin family?”
‘You know me?”
Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. Although he had long known Qin Kaiyang’s address, this was the first time he had come here.
“Academy Head Qin often mentions you at home. How can we not know you?”
The middle-aged man chuckled and paused for a moment before waving his hand. “Follow me first. The Academy Head is already asleep. I’ll try calling him. ”
“Thank you.”
Wang Xiao thanked him and called Lin Xiang into the small door. Then, he was led to the living room by the middle-aged man.
After sitting down and waiting for about ten minutes, Qin Kaiyang walked in in his sleeping robe.
“Academy Head Qin. ”
Wang Xiao stood up and greeted him before gesturing at Lin Xiang beside him. “This is Lin Xiang, the branch manager of the Lord’s Shop.”
“I know him. I’ve seen him a few times before.”
Qin Kaiyang chuckled and invited the two of them to sit before asking, “The two of you must have something important to look for me at night, right?”
“Yes and no.”
Wang Xiao nodded and shook his head. Then, he went straight to the point and asked, “Actually, I’m here to look for Liu Yingying.”
“Eldest Miss?”
Lin Xiang was stunned when he heard this. Then, he suddenly thought of something and his expression changed. “You suspect that the person who spread the rumors is Eldest Miss?”
Wang Xiao ignored Lin Xiang and only looked at Qin Kaiyang and asked, “Liu Yingying has nowhere to go in Kaiyang. If I’m not wrong, she should still be at your house, right?”
Qin Kaiyang’s eyes flickered, but he did not answer directly. He asked ambiguously, “Why are you looking for her? What’s with the ‘rumor’ I heard you mention just now?”
Wang Xiao did not hide anything and roughly explained the entire matter. He paused for a moment and continued, “I can’t think of anyone else who knows the inside story and doesn’t like me.
“I see…”
Qin Kaiyang nodded thoughtfully. After a moment, he waved his hand and instructed, “I’ll go call her now. Wait here for a while.”
Wang Xiao and Lin Xiang agreed. Qin Kaiyang stood up and left, but he did not expect to not return for more than half an hour.
Lin Xiang went to the door and looked out. “Where did Academy Head Qin go? Why isn’t he back after so long?”
“He’s probably giving a lecture, right?”
Wang Xiao replied casually without thinking.
Now, he was basically certain that his guess was right. With his understanding of Qin Kaiyang, the other party would definitely not allow Liu Yingying to do such a thing.
That was likely why Qin Kaiyang had yet to return after such a long time. Qin Kaiyang was either lecturing or thinking about how to mediate the situation.
However, although Wang Xiao could figure out these things, Lin Xiang was clueless. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan and almost every ten seconds, he would go to the door to take a look.
Wang Xiao was a little frustrated when he saw this, but he also felt that it was understandable. After all, the conflict this time was between him and Liu Yingying. Lin Xiang’s presence was indeed a little awkward here.
Fortunately, a few minutes later, Qin Kaiyang walked in from outside, but he was alone.
“Liu Yingying isn’t here?”
Wang Xiao frowned slightly. “Don’t tell me she’s too ashamed to see me?” “Are you don?. You’re a young man after all. Why are you arguing with a girl?”
Qin Kaiyang glared at Wang Xiao and said angrily. He basically admitted this matter on behalf of Liu Yingying.
Wang Xiao laughed in his heart, but he still had an unforgiving expression on his face. “You’re being a little biased. I’m the one facing rumors. Can’t I be calculative?”
Qin Kaiyang sneered and ignored him. He sat beside Wang Xiao and said seriously, “I’ve thought about it. I’ll clarify this matter for you tomorrow morning—Manager Lin, I might need your cooperation when the time comes.”
“No problem!”
Lin Xiang agreed without thinking. After all, if this matter could be successfully resolved, he wouldn’t have to be sandwiched between Wang Xiao and Liu Yingying.
Qin Kaiyang looked at Wang Xiao again. “In addition, I won’t let you suffer. Yingying only made a bad judgment. Now that she knows her mistake, feel free to ask for anything. I’ll compensate you at that time.”
“Compensation?”
Wang Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Kaiyang. “Is the compensation from her or you?”
“Of course it’s from Yingying!”
Qin Kaiyang immediately replied. After being stared at by Wang Xiao for a few seconds, he helplessly changed his words. “I treat Yingying as my biological granddaughter. Why do you have to be so calculative? Isn’t it enough if you can get compensation?”
“I knew she wouldn’t admit her mistake.”
Wang Xiao had long expected this and smiled. Then, he sighed and continued, “Academy Head, you should know what kind of person I am. I don’t want her to compensate me, but if she doesn’t realize her mistake, this will definitely happen again in the future.”
When Qin Kaiyang heard this, he immediately waved his hand. “Don’t worry, this is definitely the last time. I’ve already criticized her severely. Don’t take it too seriously. In the future, the two of you still have to see each other frequently. It’s best for everyone to take a step back.”
“Academy Head, I… wait!”
Halfway through, Wang Xiao suddenly realized that something was wrong.
“What do you mean by seeing each other frequently just now?”
“You still don’t know?”
Qin Kaiyang looked at Wang Xiao in surprise. “Yingying is participating in this school exchange as an exchange student of Kaiyang Academy. Didn’t Commander Chen inform you?”
Wang Xiao suddenly stood up from his chair. He knew that a newbie had joined the school exchange, but he did not expect that the “newbie” was actually Liu Yingying!
“Are you kidding me?”
Wang Xiao looked at Qin Kaiyang in disbelief. “Hasn’t she already been accepted by Blue Planet University? Why did she suddenly become an exchange student of Kaiyang Academy?”
“Do you still have to ask such a simple question?”
A crisp girl’s voice sounded outside the door. Liu Yingying walked in with a smile. “In order to participate in the school exchange with you, I specially went through the procedures to repeat the school year and become an exchange student.. You better appreciate my kindness!”
