Chapter 506: 327. Jindai Kongyin of the North
The world lit up again.
Qing Chen was still sitting in the villaâs living room, and so was Luo Wanya.
Before this journey through time, Luo Wanya had voluntarily come to the villa as a hostage, fearing that Daylight wouldnât be willing to save him.
Now he had finally regained his freedom.
âBenefactor, Xiao Luo will follow Daylight to the death from now on, through thick and thin,â Luo Wanya, upon returning to the villa, grabbed Qing Chenâs arm. âIf I betray you, let me suffer a thousand cuts without any complaint!â
Although the boss of Daylight wasnât here, he judged that Qing Chen was a person in Daylight, second only to the boss in status.
So thanking Qing Chen was definitely the right thing to do.
Qing Chen, calmly sitting in his chair, said, âSpeak properly, donât go about it with the gangster talk, and besides, not everyone who wants to follow Daylight can.â
If it had been in the past.
Luo Wanya might have thought that Qing Chenâs purpose in saying this was to suppress his spirit and elevate Daylightâs status.
But now Luo Wanya didnât think so; he was very clear about the kind of power Daylight wielded in the Inner World. Indeed, it wasnât for just anyone to join.
At that moment, Luo Wanya looked at Qing Chen carefully and said, âIâve managed to win over two Time Travelers, one is 22, the other is 32. The younger one is a recent college graduate and the older one is a tour guide. Neither of them are of great use to Daylight. How about you hand them over to me, and Iâll work with them.â
Qing Chen glanced at Luo Wanya, âWhat do you plan to do?â
âOf course, Iâll do whatever Daylight asks me to do,â said Luo Wanya.
Qing Chen said without hesitation, âThe boss already has arrangements for you. He needs you to fill the gap in intelligence in the underworld market for Daylight. Xiao Niu, Tianzhen, and Zhuzi, you three donât help him for now. The boss wants to see his capabilities.â
Luo Wanya became excited, as the saying goes, the beginning is the hardest, and this start was enough for him: âI, Xiao Luo, will definitely give the boss a pleasant surprise!â
âGo back and rest for now.â
Qing Chen watched Luo Wanyaâs retreating figure and suddenly found himself genuinely looking forward to seeing what kind of trouble this gangster, General Luo, could stir up with his âfamily.â
Then, Luo Wanya walked out of the villa where his driver was still at the door: âGeneral Luo, youâve finally come out, are you all right?â
âDonât call me General Luo,â Luo Wanya lowered his voice and said, âFrom today on, call me by my name, and tell the brothers to do the same. They must call me by my name.â
âWhy?â asked the driver, puzzled.
Luo Wanya replied, âI have a new boss now. What would he think if he heard you calling me General Luo all the time?â
âSo weâll call you General Luo in private and use your name in public,â said the driver.
âBullshit,â Luo Wanya snapped angrily: âThe habit of calling me by my name should be maintained even in private. Itâs more embarrassing to be found out if you say one thing to my face and another behind my back! Be careful! Havenât you learned this simple truth after so many years with me?â
âOhâŠâ the driver responded.
Luo Wanya was a tough man, even tougher on himself.
With his age, he was already half buried in the earth, but for survival, he had completely abandoned the dialect he had spoken for most of his life and had actually learned standard Mandarin properly.
Not everyone could do that.
âRight, go gather all our brothers whoâve become Time Travelers. Tell them Iâm going to lead them in doing something big,â Luo Wanya said. âWe have 12 Time Traveler brothers now, right? Thatâs enough!â
At this moment, Luo Wanya felt excited. The Outer World was a law-abiding and orderly world, and he, such a person, had always had difficulty making his mark, feeling like he was born out of his time.
Those years were either spent laying low or on the way to lay low.
But the Inner World was different; there, life was as cheap as grass, and everyoneâs survival was uncertain day by day. It was the era that suited him best.
At this time, the driver said, âGeneral Luo⊠Luo Wanya, the villa next to this one is still empty. Do you want to buy it and live closer to them?â
âNo need,â Luo Wanya shook his head: âItâs unnecessary.â
âWhy, you donât want to join them? Or is it that the house is too expensive?â the driver asked curiously.
âYou donât understand a thing. Am I short on money? Moving so close to them now, before Iâve even joined, might just make them dislike me. Itâs better to keep your distance at this time. When they want you to come closer, you can do so. If they donât, youâd better roll far away and build up your own strength to prove yourself. Listen to their arrangements for everything, donât be too opinionated,â Luo Wanya said.
It had to be said, having been through the ups and downs of life for half his life, Luo Wanya had seen through the ways of the world.
Hu Xiaoniu only came to understand some of these truths because he had a good father.
Liu Dezhu only understood some truths after being harshly beaten by life several times.
But they were still not as insightful as Luo Wanya.
Because those life truths had been realized by Luo Wanya after half a lifetime of hustling.
Among these life truths, there was a very important one: âA person needs to aspire to reach the heavens, and without fate, one cannot succeed.â
In oneâs lifetime, it is essential to have a patron, and right now, the boss of Daylight was his current patron.
At this moment, Luo Wanya thought: âAlthough we canât buy this house now, we canât let others buy it either. Go talk to the owner and get them not to sell it to anyone else.â
