CHAPTER 53: CHAPTER 53 PERHAPS HE REALLY CAN BECOME THE KING OF THIS PATH

Lin Li was really cursing.

Every word came from the heart.

Anyway, even if the curses came true, two of the things would be good outcomes.

Just treat Song Luping as a wishing well turtle.

"Good, well said!" Song Luping gave an approving thumbs-up, but then shook his head, "Xiaofan, you’re still holding back a bit. Why are you good students so meticulous? Just go all out!"

"That’s right, doing it halfway is pointless."

Well, no, you have to keep it separate.

It might not be useful now, but you can’t do without it.

"No, Brother Ping, you might not understand but I think being stuck halfway is the most unbearable, neither here nor there, that’s the most vicious curse," Lin Li explained.

Song Luping thought deeply and then his face darkened. He sighed, "You’re actually right. You’re ruthless. Not completely dead, but beyond saving, it surely is painful, sigh~"

Lin Li lowered his head to control his laughter.

Ouch, collateral damage.

"Make him suffer! Don’t let me find out who reported it. If he dares appear in front of me, I’ll pick up a knife and turn him into a human swine, pour chili water and essential balm below him! Then sprinkle itching powder on his back!" Song Luping adjusted his mood and said fiercely.

Hiss—

As the person involved, Lin Li felt his phantom limb starting to ache, and now he was even more certain that his decision to hide his identity information was correct.

"Brother, are you serious?" Lin Li asked weakly.

"I often kill people, you think?" Song Luping sneered.

Lin Li scrutinized the other’s mental state, feeling like he was one of those who indulge excessively and would be flipped by ants if they go out, farting and jetting forward a thousand meters by reaction force.

Seriously doubting whether his non-enhanced right hand could even give him a match.

So Lin Li’s gaze became hard to evaluate.

"You don’t believe?" Song Luping seemed to have interpreted Lin Li’s gaze and was a bit anxious.

"Uh, I believe." Lin Li decided to comfort him; maybe he kills with skill.

"I know you still don’t believe me, I’ll prove it to you." Song Luping sighed and said.

Lin Li: "?"

How does one prove that, by randomly picking a lucky audience at the barbecue shop to kill?

Brother, I’ll leave first, don’t get blood on me.

Song Luping took a deep breath, picked up chopsticks as a weapon, cleared his throat under Lin Li’s vigilant gaze, "Chili pepper fried meat mixed noodles!"

Lin Li was stunned for a moment, then quickly gave a thumbs-up, "Brother, now I believe you’re from Changsha!"

"You believe it now, right?" Song Luping nodded with some smugness, but then said sullenly, "How could I really have the guts to kill, even if that beast really stood in front of me, I also have to weigh the situation, see what’s going on with the other side.

If they look strong, I’ll act like nothing happened, if they look weak, I’ll intimidate fiercely, Xiaofan, you haven’t entered society yet, remember this tactic of mine, a real man should be able to endure humiliation for the greater goal."

The worst slander against men being "real men," Lin Li silently complained in his heart.

At this point, the barbecue started to arrive one after another, and the two began to eat for a bit.

"Brother Ping, I have something I want to ask you, I don’t know if you can help me." After eating a skewer of mutton that had a slightly gamey taste, Lin Li decided to steer the conversation to the main topic.

"What’s the matter, tell me." Song Luping was not surprised at Lin Li suddenly saying this.

On the contrary, if Lin Li simply invited him for a meal, he would be suspicious and unsure of Lin Li’s intentions. Now if he had a request, Song Luping would feel more at ease.

Of course, the socially astute Song Luping would never rashly make any promises before hearing what Lin Li had to say.

"Brother, now that Qing Jue has been closed, if I still want to eat chicken in Xiling Town, where should I go? Do you have any recommendations?" Lin Li lowered his voice once again and inquired.

He couldn’t find these places himself because he was an outsider, but Song Luping seemed different, he looked like an experienced player who could help Lin Li out.

The system unwillingly keeps it a secret from him, but he can.

Otherwise, why would Lin Li seem so eager when he saw him?

Song Luping was taken aback by this, losing his grip on the chopsticks, the meat fell onto the table.

It seemed like several seconds passed before he reacted to what he had heard, astonished, "Xiaofan, you just got caught, and now you’re planning to go exploring again?"

"No choice, at this age, the addiction is a bit strong, and it ended too soon last time, making it even more uncomfortable, I don’t want it myself," Lin Li said with a somewhat embarrassed expression, scratching his head.

"Aren’t you afraid of getting caught again?"

"Oh, I’m at this age now, right? I have a buff on me with a protection mechanism, even if I’m caught, I’ll just get a lecture and then released. If I don’t use it now, in a few months when I become an adult, it’ll be too late for regrets." Lin Li reasoned logically, making a convincing case.

"That’s right... No!

What about your family? They must already be so embarrassed by now, they must have scolded you harshly, right? If they find out you’ve been caught again, even if they beat you, outsiders would probably understand them, or even praise them for it. Aren’t you afraid of being beaten to death?"

Song Luping asked sincerely. When he was caught as an adult, his family found out, it was a bleak scene, let alone being underage.

"My mom is working outside, it’s just my dad at home, he understands me well, tells me to do as I please, if anything happens, he’ll handle it." Due to the previous targeted cursing, Lin Li casually fabricated details about his family.

Can’t tell the truth anyway.

"Wow, your dad is beyond awesome." Song Luping was slightly surprised and gave a thumbs-up.

Huh?

Lin Li frowned, this sounded strange, as if he had become part of a hell joke.

"Oh well, anyway, that’s the situation, I’m pretty much worry-free.

But Brother Ping, I’m not really familiar with the chicken farming industry here in Xiling, I only knew about Qing Jue, which was told by an outsider. Now that Qing Jue is gone, I’m at a loss of where to go.

But I just can’t suppress my inner desires and needs, I desperately want to...

I think Brother Ping, you should be more experienced in this area than I am, so brother, can you tell me about some other chicken farms in Xiling?"

Lin Li crossed his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Song Luping sincerely, expressing his wish.

"Really planning to go? Not joking?" Song Luping fell silent, then spoke up after a moment.

"Really planning to go, not joking." Lin Li nodded.

"You really like being a player?"

"Yeah."

"You’re really passionate about this industry? Even if it means risking getting caught again?"

"...Yeah."

The two began an empty question and answer session.

Lin Li naturally followed the logic of being hormonally driven, but some of Song Luping’s questions actually made it hard to hold back.

Couldn’t you just give me a few addresses, brother?

Are you evaluating my qualifications now?

After asking, Song Luping fell silent.

He thinks he’s deeply in love with the industry, priding himself as a celestial constellations player, but at this moment, he feels like his position will soon be replaced.

The waves of the Yangtze River highlight the new waves pushing the old waves to the shore.

He’s already old.

Looking at it now, Bai Bufan’s excitement for this industry doesn’t seem to be any less than his own before, if it were him... maybe he could really do it!

Song Luping remained silent, Lin Li didn’t rush, silently waiting.

Finally, Song Luping spoke, and under Lin Li’s expectant gaze, he sighed:

"Maybe you could really become the King of Patrons."

Lin Li: "?"

Is this what I wanted to hear?
