1110: Chapter 196: Familiar Stranger 1110: Chapter 196: Familiar Stranger The transaction did not go smoothly, or rather, Fei’er now did not trust Lu Ping’an.
Even though both Xiao Mu (she had woken up) and Eve were clamoring to play with “Big Brother,” as the “Older Sister,” Fei’er still suppressed all opinions.
It was not that she was refusing; she herself weirdly felt a sense of fondness for Lu Ping’an…..
Yet, it was this exact sentint that made her hesitate even more.
She needed more intelligence, needed to engage in more rational, logical thinking and analysis before she could make a decision.
Having made it this far on her own, she had never been one to leave her fate and future in the hands of others.
A contract?
As a high-level Contractor, how could she possibly trust so-called contracts, let alone casually sign one with another Contractor.
She left directly with Eve, she still needed to find so people to gather firsthand intelligence…..
With this Silly sister around, at least her own safety was guaranteed.
“…uh, I understand all that, but why are you back already?
And so soon?”
Lu Ping’an had barely lain down to rest for less than an hour when he was awakened by a knock at the door, and this ti, it was truly two “girls.”
“Xiao Mu wants to play gas!
And snacks, you promised.” The little girl’s eyes were full of light; her previous fatigue was gone, and she now seed like a Spoiled Child who had slept for a full twelve hours or more.
“You said I could co!” Eve added with a face full of entitlent and impatience.
Alright, he had indeed promised.
With a sigh of resignation, Lu Ping’an yawned and opened the door for the two of them.
Then he dutifully turned on the TV, started the ga console, and got them snacks…
Lu Ping’an slumped on the bed, watching the two little girls shouting excitedly and having the ti of their lives.
Why the return?
After Fei’er slept, Xiao Mu took over the body and naturally ca over to play.
As he watched them, Lu Ping’an unwittingly drifted off to sleep…
Considering his excessive vigilance, this was actually quite rare.
He was simply too exhausted, the consecutive battles had drained not just his physical strength, but his spiritual power and supernatural abilities were all overextended, deferred paynt did not cure all, it simply postponed the trouble to the future.
The wounds had already been hastily bandaged, but the regeneration had consud even more of his strength, and in his extre exhaustion, he slept deeply and sweetly, only when he woke up…
“…wait a minute, I really didn’t do anything.
I shouldn’t need to report to the Police Station, right?”
And when he woke up the next morning, he was sowhat dazed to see the two little girls lying across his arms and belly.
The two little girls were sleeping deeply, even drooling a bit.
And judging by the still-on ga console and TV, as well as the snacks and drinks scattered all over the floor, they must have played into the wee hours of the night.
Lu Ping’an carefully got out of bed, turned off the electronics, and put the garbage by the door, then he left to get so Breakfast.
But before he left, he dropped a line…
“Rember to take a bath when you wake up, you didn’t bathe yesterday, right?
I’ll bring back change of clothes.”
After saying that, without waiting for a response, Lu Ping’an left.
No sooner had he closed the door than the two girls on the bed opened their eyes simultaneously…..
then looked at each other in surprise, almost blurting out “You were actually pretending to be asleep.”
Lu Ping’an outside didn’t care; the little girl’s level of pretending to sleep was really too poor.
He yawned again and carefully navigated through the ssy deck, heading to the first-floor dining room.
The Large ship was now on the return journey, but from the fresh blood and chunks of flesh on the floor and Wall, their play on the way back seed even crazier than on the way there.
Lu Ping’an shook his head with a smile, feeling not the least bit worried for himself.
It was unlikely any Big Fish would co for him at this ti.
As for Big Fish?
They needed so ti, and once he returned to the Eastern Country’s holand, they’d have to restrain themselves a little…
even if they did co after him, he wouldn’t be afraid.
What really gave him a headache, though, were those two little girls.
“Chris?”
“Big Cat?”
“Kerdalais?”
And ever since Lu Ping’an threw out that invitation to Fei’er yesterday, there had been an eerily silence from the Big Cat.
No matter what Lu Ping’an said or asked, that side remained eerily silent.
“Child’s mother?”
“Scram!”
Finally, he received a response, though it was not a friendly one.
Lu Ping’an wasn’t annoyed.
As soone who enjoyed fun, he was especially patient when there was fun to be had.
Especially this particular fun, which had previously dragged him into trouble and nearly got him killed…
Now he could “return it to its rightful owner,” and he was even more patient waiting for the original owner to have a big laugh.
Lu Ping’an wasn’t in a hurry at all.
He knew Fei’er would agree, because this truly was the best choice for the little girl, a rarity of kindness.
He avoided the battlefields where heads were being bashed in and steadily collected his “ingredients.”
He had actually realized early on that both little girls were at a ti when they were “growing,” and they ate an extraordinary amount.
He also considerately gave the two enough ti and space to think…
even if they did reject his invitation, it didn’t really matter.
It was just that, when the ti ca, he wondered if Big Cat would take the initiative to jump out and try to do sothing…
“Heh, no way.
I hope they leave sooner.
The sooner, the better!”
At least the Big Cat itself was quite stubborn.
It’s just that Lu Ping’an didn’t believe a word of it.
“Ah, that’s right, that’s right.”
While picking up another cake, Lu Ping’an stuffed it into his carry bag.
Girls eating too many sweets might not be a good thing…
but as a professional of this level, the level of “harm” could be considered non-existent.
As he went about his tasks, Lu Ping’an suddenly stopped…
He sighed.
Despite it being mundane tasks, he surprisingly found joy in them.
Since when had he beco so diligent?
“It seems the influence is still there…” He realized that he might be “tolerating” the two little girls too much.
Lu Ping’an also rubbed his temples to clear his head a bit.
He had slipped out, not just to gather food, but he had actually made an appointnt, and there was additional work to be done.
“Co on, let’s see, what price Lin Nu’s Church is willing to offer .”
So things can only be discussed in general terms and intentions on the competitive stage, and the specifics have to be talked over in person gradually.
Although he had already decided to join, if joining, how to affiliate, and what both sides’ benefits and responsibilities were, all had to be negotiated slowly.
Lu Ping’an didn’t even expect to negotiate anything aboard the ship; those two Saints looked like complete fools…
pure high-order combat power.
Matters involving trade and benefit exchange were sure to involve a negotiator, but it was essential to get this connection started now.
Connection?
Whose connection?
Of course, that one…
“You really ca.” Seeing the “Giant man” sitting at the agreed location, Lu Ping’an wasn’t surprised at all.
“Of course, I can’t let those kids discuss such high-level secrets with you…
May I confirm Kerdalais’s current status?”
The Big Boss, who once experienced God’s Descent, had used a Saint’s body again to appear before Lu Ping’an.
