"This is my wife, Fumizuki. Both my wife and I learned of your story through Ch'en's report. Regarding what happened to you, I feel extrely sorry. This not only signifies your personal suffering, but it's also Lungn's dereliction of duty. Please allow to express my deepest apologies to you."
"Ah? Oh, actually I think it's quite alright…"
Watching Wei Yenwu step back and bow deeply, Li Lin was sowhat flustered, wanting to help him up but also feeling the action might be sowhat impolite.
In his previous life, he was just a commoner; the highest official he'd t was just an office director. Seeing the leader of such a mobile city bow before him, although his understanding of this world was still very shallow, Li Lin also felt a strange sense of being valued.
However, he always inexplicably felt Wei Yenwu seed to have hidden anings in his words, and looking at Lady Fumizuki bowing alongside him, Li Lin always had a feeling sothing was probing him. But thinking carefully, as a leader, having a few invisible bodyguards around was very normal; this probing sensation was also very normal. And when Li Lin stopped his outstretched hand, waiting for Wei Yenwu to naturally straighten up, that faint probing sensation also disappeared.
"I greatly admire a figure like you. I am able to do these things because of my bloodline, my abilities; supporting other causes is rely because I need to show my kindness. But you are different, Mr. Li Lin. Everything you have done is by dedicating everything you have. Especially when your identity is still like this, this trust and awareness beco particularly valuable. Speaking of which, it's shaful; if not for the spirit you displayed, I wouldn't have ordered the establishnt of such a departnt. Managent within Lungn also makes feel sowhat constrained; thankfully there are people like you, allowing Lungn to be maintained to this day."
"Thank you, you truly overestimate , I just did what I should do…"
I'd be damned if I believed you.
A politician's mouth, a man-eating ghost. What the actual effect was would only be known when things officially started. For this kind of multi-integrated departnt, to say it was established instantly because of soone's words, Li Lin felt he'd be a real idiot if he believed it.
But everyone lifts the flowery sedan chair ( idiom: mutual flattery/support); the boss of Lungn is praising you in front of you, it would also be very stupid not to accept it. Li Lin wasn't the type who liked to inherently attract mockery, nor would he disrespect soone; instead, he accurately positioned himself as a commoner and began praising Wei Yenwu's rits and virtues . The two exchanged praises and laughed heartily under the increasingly strange gazes of Lady Fumizuki and Ch'en, appearing like host and guest enjoying each other's company , clearly showing their relationship was very good.
This also made the surrounding people take note of Li Lin, this person who could converse with Wei Yenwu. Whether sincere or not, being able to exchange a few words with the boss ant you very likely had connections; encountering this person regarding related matters in the future, they would also pay slight attention to the possible impact. Li Lin felt this might also be the main reason for the signal Wei Yenwu gave out. Since Li Lin was considered a result of biological modification, he would definitely be targeted by others. Don't just listen to them calling him useless; if you don't actually share the data, who knows if what you say is true or false? And Wei Yenwu doing this, to so extent, also protected him.
Li Lin was also a grateful person, acknowledging Wei Yenwu's intentional protective actions. Praising a few sentences didn't cost money, could also make his connections seem deep, greatly increasing his safety factor; in this dangerous world, it was practically a no-cost transaction , why not do it?
In the process of mutual praise, ti always passed quickly. Lady Fumizuki glanced at the ti on her watch and gently tugged Wei Yenwu's sleeve.
"…Yenwu, it's ti. Need to go to the eting."
"Ah? Is that so?"
Glancing at the ti, Wei Yenwu slapped his forehead, showing a sowhat regretful expression.
"Look at , I always forget the ti when chatting. Truly sorry, little brother Li Lin, I need to attend a eting regarding departnt managent, let's chat again when there's a chance. Moreover, I have already prepared a very good gift for you here, please accept it then, definitely don't refuse."
"Ah, please take care. I will also look forward to your gift."
Waving goodbye with a smile to the departing Wei Yenwu and Lady Fumizuki, Li Lin smiled. Lady Fumizuki also nodded lightly and left the room together with Wei Yenwu. And after they left, Li Lin finally let out a soft sigh. And Officer Ch'en, who had been in an idle state just now, looked at the sowhat tired Li Lin and raised her eyebrows curiously.
"Why such an expression? Didn't Lord Wei Yenwu seem to like you very much?"
"That's the supre commander of Lungn, there's bound to be so pressure. Feeling nervous is natural, right?"
"Is that so."
"But it's not like I'm truly nervous to that extent…"
Just the natural nervousness an ordinary person feels seeing a bureaucrat.
Facing Officer Ch'en's understanding expression, Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief, fanning his forehead. Unsure what that so-called gift actually referred to.
And just as Li Lin and Officer Ch'en were preparing to go downstairs to continue looking at other things, a short-haired girl sitting alone at the edge of a table suddenly brightened up upon seeing the two approaching. She took out a photo, compared it, then excitedly walked towards the two.
"Yo, hello. Boss Li Lin? I'm Mayer, the person in charge of the forr Rhine Lab Lutra Workshop. You should have heard of this workshop, right? Actually, the entire workshop only has , okay? From now on, I'll be working under you; if there are any problems, just co ask directly. Coming out from Rhine Lab, I don't ask for anything else, just give a sufficiently large research site and I'll be very satisfied~"
"…?"
Looking at the smiling girl before him, Li Lin pointed at himself sowhat puzzledly.
"Why would I need you to work for ? Who are you? Besides, I don't know anything, just ca to attend the ceremony. What's this all about?"
"Who knows? It was the boss of Lungn who told to co over, I'm just following instructions."
"…???"
Was Wei Yenwu's gift referring to this?
Looking at the short-haired girl currently holding a chanical product, Li Lin felt there must be so communication divergence between him and Wei Yenwu.
