CHAPTER 55: CHAPTER 55: MORE THRILLING THAN BORUTO

Lin Li had anticipated many ’requirements’ and was prepared to make some sacrifices, but he never expected to hear such content.

What is this? Requirements for a model ladybug selection?

"Sixty-seventh, afterward, if the lady hasn’t left immediately, gently praise her."

"Seventy-fourth, during the spending, do not engage in any recording or other trace-leaving actions."

"Eighty-seventh..."

Song Luping was still earnestly delivering.

How come there are more... Master, stop reciting, I’m getting dizzy from all these, what were the dozens of rules before?

Even though my memory has improved by 100%, it’s not to the point where I can remember everything just by hearing it once.

The "Nansang Student Rulebook" is not this complicated.

Lin Li felt a headache coming on.

"There are about a mere hundred and three rules. If I’ve missed something and think of others later, I’ll add them. Xiaofan, have you remembered them all?"

Song Luping finally stopped, took a drink from a bottle on the table due to his dry throat, and then asked.

Lin Li wanted to nod but feared Song Luping would really test him, so he honestly shook his head: "Sorry, Brother, it’s too long; I didn’t remember everything."

"That’s normal; no one can remember it all at once. I’ll organize these rules and send them to you later.

For now, the purpose of telling you is just to ask if there’s anything in them that you find completely unacceptable. This is very important." Song Luping didn’t mind and waved his hand; then he seriously looked at Lin Li.

"No." After all, I’m not actually looking for the Hehuan Demon; these rules have nothing to do with me, so why wouldn’t I agree?

Even if Song Luping said to spend money without touching to do charity, Lin Li would agree.

"Good! Very good! I knew I wasn’t wrong about you!" Song Luping seemed a bit excited but quickly calmed down, nodding in approval:

"Xiaofan, remember, engaging in this is an art, and it has its principles. If we’re going to do it, we must do it as the noblest ladybugs! Never sink to the level of those foul, decaying uncles like Huang Mao.

They only consider themselves and never think about the future and development of this industry.

Only through sustainable depletion can we have a reason for existence and earn respect, do you understand?"

"Completely understand!" Lin Li, as if seeing a beautiful scene, had eyes full of hope.

——Completely do not understand.

Even if I used my small head to think, I couldn’t reach a consensus with Song Luping.

This guy was really muddled by frequenting prostitutes.

However, Lin Li could see that Song Luping considered him a kindred spirit, which made him so excited. All this art and king of procuring was probably his own imagination.

Just cooperate a little, anyway, my own goal can be achieved.

"I knew you’d agree. Since you have, then I will share everything I have with you for free as promised.

After going back tonight, I’ll start compiling the documents and information, but this will take some time.

Because I haven’t frequented some shops for a long time, I don’t even know if they’re still open. If I provide you with false information, it would be irresponsible to you, and I can’t allow myself to do that.

So, I might be a bit busy these days, working overtime to inspect them. Anyway, you still need to study, so you shouldn’t be in a rush for a few days, right? By the weekend, I’ll first send you the initial version of Xiling’s map for eating chicken, and as I make updates later, I’ll send you the final version.

At that time, the sky’s the limit for you!

Song Luping spoke with sincerity, reached out, rubbed his waist and passionately declared:

"Old chap, let’s fight for a few more days! Pave the way for newcomers!"

"Of course, no problem," Lin Li felt somewhat touched, tears welled up in his eyes: "But, Brother, you’re already so exhausted, and you say you need to work overtime and visit places these days? What about your health, and aren’t you without a salary..."

Being so weak already, if next time we meet, and you’re left with just five pounds along with the box, how am I going to complete the task?

Does returning from the Bridge of Helplessness mean turning back?

Or send the ashes to the Demon Suppression Bureau to complete the task?

If it doesn’t, Master, please wait until the day your disciple betrays you before you pass away.

"First, this isn’t exhaustion; I just put on a Western decadent makeup look, personal preference." suddenly emphasized the excited Song Luping seriously and firmly.

Men’s pride in this area is surprisingly strong.

Lin Li smiled, sure, if you say so.

He nodded, and then Song Luping proudly added:

"Secondly, regarding money, indeed the money for meals is gone, but there’s still money for foot baths, rest assured."

Lin Li: "..."

Inverted consumption view.

The 90% gold content is still increasing, apparently prioritizing looking for the Hehuan Demon over eating.

Finding Song Luping was indeed the right choice; he wasn’t wrong. No one in Xiling Town could match him in this field.

"Lastly, even if we go ten thousand steps back, getting hurt a little for you is worth it.

The new medicine I bought has arrived, and with it, I can burn my last potential, and I’m sure I can support you to become the king of Xiling’s ladies.

At that time, witnessing all this would make me happy to retire, gratefully passing the crown onto your head.

I believe that day won’t be long.

Bufan, do you know that in most chicken farms in Xiling Town, if you mention my name, you can get a five percent discount?"

Lin Li was only pretending to be shocked before; now he was genuinely shocked.

How old of a customer must you be to get such treatment? Suddenly Lin Li felt that it was entirely normal for Song Luping to be in this state at his age.

However, Song Luping wasn’t boasting; he earnestly looked at Lin Li: "But I hope one day Xiling will echo with a legend that belongs solely to you, surpassing the master!

At that time, when village women disdain my weakness, and I shout your name, they will be shocked and exclaim loudly—Oh, so it was Mr. Bai Bufan’s introduction, then we have a ten percent discount!

The world will eventually know, without you, Bai Bufan, the paths of the profession would be shrouded in darkness!"

Song Luping, like a kindly elder, had eyes full of hope as he looked at Lin Li.

At this moment, the phrase ’hoping the student excels in the profession’ was brought to life.

Lin Li gritted his teeth, nodded emotionally, and squeezed his thigh hard, reminding himself not to lose composure.

Keep a straight face, don’t laugh, quickly think of the saddest thing recently!

Using the name Bai Bufan in his decision-making was indeed the right choice.

The image of his haircut last month flashed in his mind— great, didn’t want to laugh anymore, he was saved.

Not only did he not want to laugh anymore, but a trace of sadness filled Lin Li’s eyes, allowing him to more cooperatively respond emotionally to Song Luping: "Brother Ping, I will make every effort to reach this point, hold on."

And having found a kindred spirit in Lin Li, Song Luping was beyond words with joy and excitement to receive such a response.

Before, when he talked about these concepts and points of view with his ladybug pals, they called him a gigantic fool, but Bai Bufan was different, he recognized him! He’s one of his kind!

To die for one’s confidant.

And Song Luping was willing to sacrifice for his confidant.

The path to the throne is always filled with thorns.

He had wanted to ascend it himself, but alas, he gloomily realized he didn’t have the ability.

Now Bai Bufan has come.

So, he’s willing to pave the way for the other, to cut through the thorns!

I, Song Luping, will be the man behind the future Ladybug King! Supporting him silently all the way!

This is... the legacy!
