Chapter 421: Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty-One: Refusal
Chapter 421: Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty-One: Refusal
This start was somewhat inauspicious. Han Jin did regret bringing Han Jiajia with him; he hadnât expected that little girl to be one of Su Jinâs people.
In order not to disturb the normal business of the Heart Talk Store with the commotion here, upon seeing Su Jinâs signal, Lin Xiuyuan created an opaque ice wall in front of everyone, between the two rooms.
At the appearance of the ice wall, the entire venue was abuzz.
âDid you see that? He just took a few seconds to make a wall out of ice!â
âI saw it, thatâs really amazing!â
âI heard that the Ice Element young man is the cousin of big shot Su Jin!â
âNo wonder, the whole family is full of big shots!â
Lin Xiuyuan also didnât expect that just an ice wall would cause so much discussion, nor did he expect that many young girls would run out from the side queues to join the one where Lin Xiuyuan was selling his goodsâŠ
âPfft, your son is getting all the glory,â Huang Yunxiang said, trying to suppress a laugh, though she didnât deny feeling a tiny bit proud herself.
âHad I known, I would have made a wall. His old manâs Earth wall couldâve been done in a few seconds as well,â Lin Cheng said, feeling a bit sad as he hadnât been in the spotlight for a long time, especially when a girl who had been at the front of the line had actually run to the end of Lin Xiuyuanâs queueâŠ
What was the meaning of all this?
Lin Chengâs spoon digging into the rice paused reluctantly for a moment until he was nudged a few times by Huang Yunxiang, prompting him to get busy again.
Inside the ice wall, Han Jinâs eyes flashed with amazement for an instant.
A high-rank Ice Element!
This Heart Talk Team, he wanted it more and more.
âMr. Lu, hello, let me formally introduce myself. I am Han Jin from B city, and I am also one of the examiners for the Mercenary Corps this time. I have long heard of the Heart Talk Team from S city,â Han Jin said in a polite tone, which did not win over Su Jin and Lu Hao.
Who said he was from our S city?
And they had just tried to attack Qiqi, although they didnât injure Qiqi in the slightest, Han Jiajiaâs Wood Element Ability had indeed been aimed at Qiqi.
Remembering what Liao Yifan had told her about her conflict with Han Jiajia, it was because Han Jiajia nearly hit a little boy with her car at the base. Liao Yifan had forcibly stopped Han Jiajiaâs car with his Power Element Ability.
The little boy she had saved was Zhou Yang, the first little customer of the Heart Talk Store. Back then, Liao Yifan was only comforting Zhou Yang and was almost hit by Han Jiajiaâs Wood Element Ability. Fortunately, the Security team arrived in time to stop the farce.
âThat woman is just a mad dog; thereâs no use talking to her, she wouldnât understand anyway,â Liao Yifan commented on Han Jiajia.
Su Jin looked at Han Jin and Han Jiajia. A mad dog and its master holding the leash?
âAn examiner from B city attacking a member of my Heart Talk Team in a public setting without provocation, may I ask what this means?â Su Jin asked.
Han Jiajia couldnât help wanting to argue, but was glared back into silence by Han Jin.
This young girl is also a member of the Heart Talk Team?
Moreover, with that man by her side, they didnât hurt her at all.
Nevertheless, Han Jin still put on an apologetic face and said to the group, âI am truly sorry, it was all just a misunderstanding, just kidsâ horseplay. I will reprimand my younger sister when we return home to make sure she wonât do it again.â
âSo, what exactly brings you here to find us?â Su Jinâs question was direct, wanting to cut through the pleasantries.
Looking at Lu Hao, Han Jin thought, a Fire Element Ability User?
However, he had learned that Lu Haoâs Fire Element was only Level Four, and he wondered whether Lu Hao could still be so arrogant after a comparison with the Level Five Fire Element Qian Hong that he had brought along.
âThen Iâll just be frank, our B City is now the largest base in the country, bar none. Whether in terms of military force or supplies, we have an absolute advantage. Right now, B City Base is in need of talented people. I wonder if you are interested in seeking development opportunities in B City?â
Han Jin said with a smile to the two of them.
âSorry, weâre not interested,â
Su Jin and Lu Hao looked at each other and replied without hesitation.
âYou really donât know whatâs good for you, inviting you to go is a sign of respect,â
Han Jiajia said from behind Han Jin. No one the Han family wanted had ever refused them.
âJiajia, donât talk nonsense.â
After chastising Han Jiajia, Han Jin continued to speak to the two of them, âIf the Heart Talk Team is willing to develop in B City, you can join our baseâs management, and you will enjoy various privileges and access to diverse resources.â
Joining the baseâs management would be much better than scraping by on odd jobs here, right?
Moreover, the Heart Talk Teamâs ability to gather supplies seemed very strong. The Heart Talk Convenience Store had only been closed for a few days and now they had reopened. His Han family was in need of such people.
âNot going,â
Lu Hao replied with just two words, making the atmosphere instantly awkward.
Mao Qiqi also pulled Lian Jiyue to stand behind Su Jin and Lu Hao. There were four people on the other side; they couldnât afford to lose their presence.
Everyone thought Han Jin would fly into a rage, but unexpectedly, he laughed and said, âNo worries, I genuinely like your team. I will be staying in S City Base until the assessment. If you change your minds, you can find me anytime. And remember, to achieve a high rank in the assessment, youâll need to pass my challenge first,â
âThanks for the heads up,â Su Jin replied.
âDonât mention it. Well, I wonât disturb your store any longer. Wishing you prosperity in business,â
After speaking, Han Jin left with Han Jiajia and Sun Manhui who was behind them, and Mao Qiqi kept an eye out, noticing that the Invisibility Ability User did not leave immediately but stood in the corner of the door.
âSister Xiao Jin, thereâs an Invisible Person in that corner,â
Mao Qiqi whispered in Su Jinâs ear.
Su Jin nodded and had Lin Xiuyuan remove the ice wall. She and Lu Hao continued selling supplies as if nothing had happened, while the person in the corner seemed to observe for a while before leaving.
âGone?â
Su Jin asked Mao Qiqi who came running over.
âGone, left in the same direction as those three,â Mao Qiqi replied.
âThanks, Qiqi,â
Su Jin said with a smile. Having a Mental Element Ability User in the team was just so convenient.
The queue to buy supplies grew into five lines, but their length remained unchanged. Su Jin got so busy that she promptly forgot about the incident, and in between, Mao Zhihang dragged her to the back to restock the temporary warehouse twice.
The elders in the space saw the supplies continuously disappearing into the warehouse, delighted to no end.
âŠ
Contrarily, back at Han Jin and co.âs residence, Han Jin, looking at Wang Liang who just returned, asked, âThey didnât say anything else, just continued selling their goods?â
âThatâs right,â
Wang Liang answered truthfully. He could tell those two indeed didnât take Young Master Han and his company seriously. Yet, he also only dared to convey what he had seen.
âBrother, I told you they are ungrateful. Even if I hadnât caused a scene, their attitude clearly wouldnât have changed,â
Han Jiajia commented.
Han Jinâs face darkened as he said, âUnless they donât want a high rank, I wonât be going easy on them.â
