22. Green Tea (80 Monthly Votes)
“Then the Light Magic Society would be breaking the law, which is no different from the Dark Magic Realm, right?”
Su Zeheng smiled faintly.
“The difference between the Light Magic Society and the Dark Magic Realm is this: once you lose your utility, the Dark Magic Realm won’t care whether you live or die; but the Light Magic Society hopes to help you, to make you a part of the Light Magic Society, and together eliminate the darkness in this world.”
“In other words, you want me to join the Light Magic Society?” Wen Han’s expression remained unchanged.
“It requires a period of evaluation,” Su Zeheng hesitated for a moment, “are you willing to leave the Recycling Station?”
“… I haven’t thought it through yet.”
This time, she wasn’t lying.
The previous four years had been calm, but in the last month, two organizations, the Light Magic Society and the Recycling Station, had suddenly emerged, leaving Wen Han struggling to process it all.
She just didn’t know if it was because she practiced black magic and had the constitution of a black magic girl.
The moment she heard the word “light,” Wen Han instinctively felt disgusted, as if it was innate.
This was also why she disliked Su Zeheng so much; his kind of “sense of light” was unbearable for her, even repulsive!
“Do you have anything else to say?” After a moment, she finished her last sip of milk tea and looked up to ask.
Su Zeheng was silent for a moment: “I came here primarily to persuade you, hoping that you can think it over. If you need anything…” he took out his business card, “you can contact me.”
Wen Han glanced at the business card and ultimately reached out to take it.
“Then I’ll be leaving now.” She placed the business card into her bag and stood up, “Also, you guys in the Light Magic Society are basically like the police in the magic realm, right? Do the police enjoy stalking others and acting like perverted voyeurs?”
“I didn’t mean to.” Su Zeheng stood up as well, “I should apologize for that, but it was necessitated by my task. It won’t happen again in the future.”
“That’s the best.” Wen Han gave him a cold glance, “Because I really have no interest in you. You don’t need to go to such lengths to appear in front of me to attract my attention.”
“Wen Han.” Su Zeheng finally couldn’t help but take a deep breath, “Do you always feel so self-satisfied?”
“Isn’t it?” Wen Han raised an eyebrow, “Someone told me… that you secretly said I’m very pretty when you’re at home.”
With a flick, Su Zeheng’s expression changed suddenly: “You…”
“Ha ha ha!” Seeing his stunned expression, Wen Han could no longer hold back and covered her mouth to laugh, “You can think about me, but don’t do anything perverted, okay? Uncle, goodbye~!”
The automatic door suddenly opened, and she vanished like a gust of wind in her pink sandals.
Watching her retreating figure, Su Zeheng gradually came back to his senses.
“That brat Ming Cheng actually… sigh, it seems I shouldn’t talk nonsense in front of kids in the future.”
But he simply thought she was quite beautiful and kind-hearted, with no ulterior motives.
She seemed to have misunderstood.
Looking up again, Wen Han was already gone.
Su Zeheng could only let out a sigh, politely paying for the milk tea and turning to leave in the opposite direction.
…
“The Light Magic Society helps dark magic practitioners turn over a new leaf.”
“If you join the Recycling Station, you can get a million every month!”
“The Light Magic Society doesn’t indiscriminately kill innocents.”
“For every task you complete, you can earn two hundred thousand, along with countless magic books for you to choose from!”
The voices of Su Zeheng and Lin Wu Ju echoed back and forth in her mind, drowning out the music from the bar as if it were blocked from her ears.
After work, Wen Han stared thoughtfully at the warm water in her hands, lost in the recent events.
“Hi~” a voice suddenly came from behind her, and Qin Long sat beside her, “What’s wrong? Here alone… Hmm? You look unhappy?”
“… No.” Wen Han replied with a faint smile, “I thought you wouldn’t come.”
“I…” Qin Long’s eyes flashed with panic for a moment, “I ran into some issues on the way, so I’m late. Plus, I promised you, so even if I had to crawl over after getting hit by a car, I would!”
“I won’t allow you to say that about yourself!” Wen Han’s reproachful gaze made Qin Long feel weak in his bones.
He suddenly got a bit excited: “You should be off work now, right? How about I take you out for a walk?”
“Well…” Wen Han hesitated, “I still have to go pick up the kid in an hour.”
“No problem, I’ll take you there. Just in time…” his tone suddenly became serious, “I want to see our child!”
“Stop talking nonsense!” Wen Han immediately rolled her eyes in embarrassment.
You foolish idiot, you think you are worthy?!!
Qin Long laughed heartily: “Let’s go.”
“Um… okay!”
Wen Han turned her head, and the two walked out of the bar together.
…
“My car is over there.”
After leaving the bar, Qin Long proudly showed off his Ferrari keys.
“Tonight belongs to just the two of us.”
Wen Han shyly looked down: “You didn’t drink, right?”
“To take you out to play, I didn’t drink a single drop.”
The two exchanged smiles, but just then, they suddenly heard a hurried and agitated voice rushing toward them.
“Qin Long—!!”
A familiar female voice suddenly exploded.
Wen Han looked up and suddenly saw Lin Xiaomei raising her hand, about to slap her face.
But the other party was just an ordinary person; how could she possibly hit herself?
She quickly took a step back, the evil inside her making her cover her cheek and show an innocent expression.
From Qin Long’s perspective, the scene was brief; Lin Xiaomei abruptly rushed over and slapped Wen Han.
He exploded with rage and grabbed Lin Xiaomei’s arm: “What the hell do you think you’re doing?! Didn’t I just give you a hundred thousand earlier?!”
“Qin Long, do you think you can just use money to make me go away?” Lin Xiaomei looked up at Wen Han, “Dirty bitch, seductress! How dare you…”
“Have you said enough?!” Qin Long suddenly yanked Lin Xiaomei’s arm, and she let out a shriek, “Who allowed you to hit her? She’s my woman; when did it become your place to bully her?!”
“I didn’t hit her!” Lin Xiaomei snarled while breaking free, “You dare to hit me now?”
“Mr. Qin, let it go.” At this moment, Wen Han stepped forward, gently shaking her head, “I’m fine! She didn’t actually hit me, so don’t blame her.”
“Lin Xiaomei!!!!!!” Wen Han’s words made Qin Long’s face flush with anger, “You—get lost immediately!!!!”
“Why should I get lost? Is this road yours?” Lin Xiaomei gritted her teeth, her eyes red, “How dare you, filthy woman, compete with me for a man? I’ll beat you, seductress!!!”
She suddenly charged forward again, swinging her handbag.
“Ah!” Wen Han screamed as she stumbled back, the handbag smashing onto the ground beside her feet.
“You crazy woman!” Qin Long couldn’t hold back any longer.
He surged forward and pushed Lin Xiaomei away: “Don’t think I don’t know you just want money! I’ll tell you this, scum like you will never step foot in my home. Take your ten-something thousand and roll; you think you can have my family fortune? Dream on!”
“Qin Long, you…”
Her intentions were laid bare and, having fallen down, her hair was a mess, and even her shoes had come off.
Lin Xiaomei hesitated to speak, finally screaming directly: “Ah—！！！！”
“Are you done making noise?”
“No! Qin Long, I absolutely…”
The entire street was filled with their bickering, and passersby turned to look.
Wen Han stood quietly in the corner, recording the scene in front of her on her phone.
But at the moment she clicked to post, Su Zeheng’s words suddenly flashed through her mind.
She couldn’t help but stop, blinking.
“Perhaps…”
If she just posted this video, her task progress would advance another step.
But…
She suddenly froze for a few seconds before quickly hearing Qin Long’s footsteps approaching.
