About half an hour later, the hat-wearing poser began to look around, clearly searching for Fang Jinxiu.
However, he had no idea what Fang Jinxiu looked like.
But this guy did linger on Fang Jinxiu for a while, presumably attracted by her extreme beauty.
"This jerk, he's been sneaking glances at me the whole time," Fang Jinxiu noted with annoyance.
As for Tang Rao, he was quickly devouring the dishes in front of him.
Honestly, the old man's cooking was delicious. Even though it was just extremely ordinary ingredients, each was prepared perfectly, maximizing almost all of their flavors.
Even the cooking time was controlled perfectly according to the ingredients' level of tenderness, it was simply perfect.
"Boss, stop only focusing on eating, what should we do now? He's about to leave, hey!" Fang Jinxiu said, pouting.
"Just go over there and tell him you're Fang Jinxiu," said Tang Rao while gnawing on a chicken wing.
"Then what?"
"Then you say that I'm your boyfriend, and also a distinguished independent scientist who wants to join Soul Capture Pavilion," Tang Rao said.
Fang Jinxiu paused, "Boss, are you just trying to take advantage of me?"
"Say I'm your husband if you want."
Fang Jinxiu: "..."
Tang Rao felt that for a devilish girl like Fang Jinxiu, you had to use this kind of tactic.
Otherwise, you would think I'm someone you can just play around with.
"Perverted man..." Fang Jinxiu cursed and then stood up, walking directly towards the hat-wearing poser.
The hat-wearing poser looked somewhat excited to see Fang Jinxiu approaching.
"Whoosh!" Fang Jinxiu pulled out the chair and sat down right in front of the poser in the hat.
"I'm Fang Jinxiu."
Fang Jinxiu's statement made the poser in the hat freeze for a moment.
His primary target was Fang Jinxiu, and of course, he also wanted to communicate more with this beauty. Unexpectedly, this extremely gorgeous woman turned out to be Fang Jinxiu.
Absolutely perfect.
"Hello, Gu Tong," the man extended his hand.
"I don't like to shake hands with people," Fang Jinxiu glanced at Gu Tong and said indifferently.
"Miss Fang is so unique and independent, truly a person whom Soul Capture Pavilion highly values," Gu Tong said with a smile, then withdrew his hand.
Fang Jinxiu internally sneered, as if I care about your Soul Capture Pavilion.
"Hello, I'm Tang Laosan." Tang Rao appeared out of nowhere and stood beside Gu Tong.
Gu Tong was slightly taken aback and quickly turned his head to look at Tang Rao.
"This is my boyfriend, he's also a very impressive independent scientist, and he wants to join Soul Capture Pavilion too," Fang Jinxiu said with rolling eyes, Tang Laosan, Tang Rao, couldn't you come up with a better name? What even is this.
Gu Tong was clearly struggling to keep up.
"Mr. Gu, I've admired Soul Capture Pavilion for a long time now. Is it possible for me to join as well? In the future, Jinxiu and I will serve Soul Capture Pavilion and definitely won't let you down," Tang Rao sat down beside Fang Jinxiu, placing one hand around her waist.
Fang Jinxiu felt it was all Tang Rao's scheming, this perverted man just thinking of taking advantage of her.
"That, I'll need to consult with my superiors, after all, we haven't really got to know you, Mr. Tang," Gu Tong said politely, but there was a hint of malice in his eyes.
Fang Jinxiu's boyfriend, dammit, how could Fang Jinxiu have a boyfriend.
Such a beautiful woman, only I, Gu Tong, am worthy of having her.
What Tang Laosan, average-looking with a name as common as it gets.
"Since it's not possible, then forget it, let's go, Jinxiu." Tang Rao stood up and said to Fang Jinxiu.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, I listen to my boyfriend." Fang Jinxiu could only play along with Tang Rao at this point. At least she had to finish this scene.
"Miss Fang, wait a moment! Just a moment! I'll ask and give you an answer right away!" Gu Tong immediately said, and then he entered Illusion City.
"Douchebag!" Seeing Gu Tong enter Illusion City, Fang Jinxiu immediately pinched Tang Rao, her eyes nearly popping out of her head.
"It's for the plot..." Tang Rao replied to Fang Jinxiu.
About two minutes later, Gu Tong exited Illusion City.
"Miss Fang, I've just consulted, and it's okay, you and Mr. Tang Laosan can join Soul Capture Pavilion together. However, we haven't learned much about Mr. Tang Laosan yet, so there will need to be some further inspection," Gu Tong said, clearly annoyed.
He actually didn't want to accept this Tang Laosan.
"That's not bad, an inspection or whatever, I don't mind," Tang Rao said with a smile.
"By the way, Miss Fang, now that you've joined Soul Capture Pavilion, I think, shouldn't you show some sincerity?" Gu Tong said to Fang Jinxiu, insisting on completing what needed to be done.
"Show sincerity? What do you mean?" Tang Rao asked.
Gu Tong was annoyed, this Tang Laosan was just annoying, can't you just stop talking.
"It's some data on Super Technology Weapons. You see, once you join Soul Capture Pavilion, we will provide you with comprehensive protection and support. As for you, you'll need to provide the data on the latest Super Technology Weapons you're researching," Gu Tong said.
"Bullshit!" Tang Rao cursed directly, "What comprehensive protection and support have you given? Just casually saying we've joined and now asking for this data? You're really good at making empty promises without feeling any pain."
Gu Tong was taken aback by how quickly Tang Rao changed his attitude.
"Without any benefits, you expect us to contribute? Sorry, but we won't be joining such an organization, goodbye!" Tang Rao grabbed Fang Jinxiu's hand and stood up, ready to leave.
Gu Tong was inwardly fuming, this Tang Laosan, such a bastard, he just wanted to beat him senseless, what a difficult person!
"Then what do you want Soul Capture Pavilion to offer you?" Gu Tong asked.
"We need a large number of Spirit Stones for our research, and we also need to collaborate and exchange with more scientists, because it's only through exchange that Super Technology can develop at an ultimate speed," Tang Rao said.
Fang Jinxiu glanced at Tang Rao; she probably understood his intentions by now.
This guy wants to see how many Super Technology Weapons scientists Soul Capture Pavilion has managed to sway.
What a brute, not only shameless but also sly.
"Of course, there's support with Spirit Stones, ten million Spirit Stones! I'll transfer it to Miss Fang right now." Gu Tong quickly entered Illusion City and a few seconds later, Fang Jinxiu received a message of a transfer of ten million Spirit Stones.
"What about mine?" Tang Rao blinked his eyes twice.
"You... you're still under observation." This
"Jinxiu, let's go," Tang Rao repeated his words.
Gu Tong almost lost control, almost erupted in anger.
But in the end, he suppressed it.
"Alright, Mr. Tang, I'll also transfer ten million to you, twenty million Spirit Stones should be enough for your research," Gu Tong said, watching Tang Rao.
"Like this, there's some sincerity. Come on Jinxiu, let's sit down and have a good talk with Mr. Gu," Tang Rao said with a smile.
"Okay," Fang Jinxiu nodded, looking like the obedient girlfriend.
