Xiao Xun looked at Chu Ningxiang in front of him, completely confused, "Is there anything else?"
"This account is mine now, but I want you to continue using it and be the coach for the women's team I'm building. I'll pay you three thousand five a month, how about that?"
Xiao Xun looked at Chu Ningxiang confidently blinking her big eyes and gently shook her head, "I'm only selling the account, not myself."
After saying that, he walked over to Xiao San Mao and started changing the security phone number.
"Alright, just tell me the verification code."
At this moment, Chu Ningxiang really wanted to say, 'If you don't agree to be our coach, I won't buy your account.'
But she knew at this moment that the young man in front of her desperately needed this money, otherwise, he wouldn't sell his beloved account. It wasn't about the price, but that he genuinely needed it.
After giving him the verification code, Chu Ningxiang said to him, "I hope, whether you agree to be our coach or not, you won't delete me as a friend, nor will you block me. Can we be friends?"
Xiao Xun nodded, saying nothing, and sent the account and password to her via phone. After doing this, he finally looked up, "You can directly change the password through the security phone number."
Chu Ningxiang changed Xiao Xun's contact name. "Since that's the case, I won't say anything more. We'll meet again if we have the chance."
Xiao San Mao waved goodbye to Chu Ningxiang, "Vice-captain, goodbye."
After the match, Xiao San Mao, still unsatisfied, ran out to buy more food and a case of beer, and carried it to the bar counter.
"Brother Xiao, you are truly my idol. Today, you opened my eyes wide. No matter what, you must take me as your disciple."
As he spoke, he slightly bent his knees, "If not, can I kowtow to you?"
Xiao Xun supported him with one hand, "Stop joking. I'm fine playing by myself, but you want me to teach people. I really can't teach."
Xiao San Mao looked nonchalant, "It's okay if you can't teach! Even if you just take me on as a nominal master, it's fine. Today's battle, Master, you have truly 'ascended to godhood'. From now on, as long as I mention your name, I'll see who dares to mess with me."
Su Xiang and his disciple also advised Xiao Xun, "Since the boy has this intention, take him in!"
"Yes, yes, take him in!"
Xiao Xun had no choice, not wanting to refuse them, and could only agree.
Xiao San Mao picked up a bottle of wine, "Heaven above, I, Zhao Qiuyu, from this day forward, am Xiao Xun's disciple. From now on, we will share blessings and hardships together. If I betray my master, may I die a terrible death..." After speaking, he directly downed the entire bottle of wine.
Xiao Xun picked up the wine bottle, "It's too serious, too serious." He then reciprocated.
Xiao San Mao waved his hand and snatched the wine bottle from Xiao Xun's hand, "Everyone in this area knows how loyal and righteous I, Xiao San Mao, am. Today I take you as my master, and you will be my master for all my lives. Your disciple knows Master is in trouble recently. Tell your disciple the truth, how much debt do you have? Your disciple has some resources and can help you gather some more. Let's repay as much as we can first..."
Xiao Xun held Xiao San Mao's hand, "You've had too much to drink..."
Xiao San Mao pointed at Su Xiang, "Brother Xiang knows my alcohol tolerance. This is nothing. Everything I said just now is from the bottom of my heart."
Xiao Xun patted Xiao San Mao's shoulder, "With your words, I am content. I really cannot accept being your master. If you don't mind, how about we become sworn brothers?"
Xiao San Mao held Xiao Xun's hand, his cheeks flushed red as he looked at Su Xiang, "Brother Xiang, my master is treating me like an 'old mischievous boy', turning master and disciple into sworn brothers directly. Hahaha... Alright! Everything is up to my elder brother's decision. Your brother will obey."
The four of them drank three cases of wine. They barely ate any food. After drinking, they were all a bit tipsy. Su Xiang was fine, but his disciple was the first to vomit, followed almost simultaneously by Xiao Xun and Xiao San Mao.
Xiao San Mao ignored his machine and directly took Xiao Xun to a small hotel across the street, where they checked into a room and both collapsed into sleep.
Before Xiao Xun lost consciousness, he sent a message to his cousin: I'm fine, don't worry!
The next day, as dawn broke, Xiao Xun stretched comfortably. This was the first time he had slept in a bed since being kicked out by his cousin. Although the conditions in the small hotel were poor, with no private bathroom and even a strange odor wafting in the room, it didn't hinder his sleepy soul.
When he woke up, Xiao San Mao was still fast asleep, drooling all over the pillow, his snores as peculiar as the sound of an electric drill from a construction team.
Xiao Xun glanced at his phone messages. His cousin had sent him many messages, mostly saying that he hadn't told their respective parents and that he was in a bad mood that day, hoping his cousin would return. She promised that no matter if he had a job or not, she would never drive him out again.
He didn't reply. He got up, did a quick wash, and checked his phone balance, confirming that he had indeed sold the account yesterday.
He looked up the address of Shengdiluoman Group and took a bus to the twenty-story building. He even got off at the wrong stop once.
Entering the main entrance was like entering a zoo; you couldn't get through the turnstiles without swiping a card.
A security guard in his early fifties, seeing that Xiao Xun didn't have a card, reached out and stopped him, "Young man, who are you looking for?"
Xiao Xun pointed inside, "I'm looking for General Manager Wang."
The security guard didn't react for a moment, "General Manager Wang?"
"Yes, General Manager Wang Sucheng."
When Xiao Xun said this, the security guard instantly understood, "Oh, I see! Do you have an appointment?"
"No."
The security guard smiled, "You can't go in without an appointment."
Xiao Xun lowered his head dejectedly, "Is that so!"
As it was just after the start of work, everyone had basically arrived, with only a few latecomers rushing inside.
One of them, while running and fumbling for her work ID, didn't notice the person in front of her and bumped squarely into Xiao Xun.
Xiao Xun instinctively grabbed her arm, preventing her from falling.
"Are you okay?"
In response to Xiao Xun's concerned inquiry, she frowned, bent down to pick up her work ID, and said, "Why are you standing here blocking the entrance instead of going inside?"
After saying that, she looked up at Xiao Xun in front of her, "Get out of the way, I'm already late."
Then she swiped her work ID at the turnstile and ran inside.
The security guard shook his head, "This girl, always late, why doesn't she get up earlier? If I were her supervisor, I'd fire her first."
Xiao Xun looked inside, "Brother, then how can I get in?"
The security guard enthusiastically pointed to the reception area, "You can tell those two young ladies over there. See what they say. If they approve, you can basically get in."
Xiao Xun looked back at the two fair-skinned and beautiful young ladies at the reception desk and nodded politely to the security guard, "Thank you, brother."
