Lu Chenxing's tone faltered at the words, then after some thought, he still seriously said to Yun Qiaoqiao, "Yun Qiaoqiao, I think we don't need to speak so formally in private. Seriousness is a good thing, but we also need to pay attention to the occasion and intensity."
Yun Qiaoqiao's tense expression relaxed slightly at the words. "Understood, Teacher. I will pay attention to it in the future."
When she said this, although her attitude was still serious, her tone was much softer, making Lu Chenxing nod slightly.
At this moment, Wang Hu and Lu Hai, who were on the side, could no longer hold back. Their brows furrowed, and just as they were about to ask something, Lu Chenxing interrupted, "I know you are in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry yet. You will have plenty of time to talk later. Let me finish the introduction first."
Seeing this, the two exchanged glances and had no choice but to swallow their full stomachs of questions.
Then Lu Chenxing said to Guan Yang, "Guan Yang, this is Yun Qiaoqiao, my second disciple. Like you, she is a believer, and from now on, she will be your Junior Sister."
Through the conversation between the few people just now, Guan Yang already had a general understanding of this newly acquainted Junior Sister, so he smiled and greeted her, "Junior Sister, it's our first meeting. I came in a hurry and didn't prepare a gift. I will definitely make it up next time."
At this moment, Yun Qiaoqiao was better than her previous rigid and serious self, and she also smiled and replied, "Greetings, Senior Brother."
As for the others, Lu Chenxing didn't need to introduce them; they had already chatted happily before.
At this time, he also noticed that Guan Yang had also reached the First Order Perfection, which meant that both of them were preparing to undertake their promotion tasks. So, Lu Chenxing took out two bags of Second Order crystal cores. "Perfect, both of you are at First Order Perfection. The promotion task should not be difficult for you. If it weren't for the mandatory solo requirement, you could team up and go together."
"These are the Second Order cultivation resources I'm giving you. You two take them."
The two naturally had no objections and accepted everything. After that, Lu Chenxing took out a card with a million yuan deposit and handed it to Yun Qiaoqiao. "When Guan Yang became my disciple, I gave him a million yuan as a gift for his apprenticeship. Now, you naturally must have one too."
Yun Qiaoqiao did not decline Lu Chenxing's gift but accepted it seriously and solemnly. "Thank you, Teacher."
"Alright, you can talk slowly now if you have anything to say." Lu Chenxing handed the Card Shop key to Yun Qiaoqiao. "Yun Qiaoqiao, go open the door. You can sit and chat slowly. Sister Pingsha and I are going to Principal Bai's place."
"Okay."
Afterward, Lu Chenxing, holding Long Zhi, who was still unconscious in his arms, walked with Yan Pingsha towards the teaching building. He planned to ask Bai Yuntian why this little fellow had been sleeping so soundly, fearing that something might be wrong.
And after the two of them left, Wang Hu and Lu Hai impatiently crowded over, both asking eagerly, "Yun Qiaoqiao, are you okay? Do you still recognize us?"
"Yeah, Second Sister, do you still recognize us? Do you remember how we met?"
Guan Yang and Guo Jiahao exchanged glances, shrugged, and stood to the side.
They originally thought Yun Qiaoqiao would wait for them to finish before opening the door, but Yun Qiaoqiao walked towards the door while seriously saying, "Of course I recognize Big Brother and Third Brother. Don't worry, I'm doing very well."
"Then why has your speech become so rigid now? It's like... you've changed into a different person?" Wang Hu quickly continued to ask.
Compared to Yun Qiaoqiao acknowledging Boss Lu as her teacher, he was actually more concerned about this point.
Because Boss Lu had already imparted knowledge to Yun Qiaoqiao, it was very normal for Yun Qiaoqiao to acknowledge him as her teacher, or rather, everyone thought it was very normal. What he was truly concerned about was Yun Qiaoqiao's change in personality.
Yun Qiaoqiao opened the Card Shop door while smiling and answering, "My worshipped deity is influencing me. She is a serious, loyal, and upright knight, so as a believer, I will also be affected."
"I've just started believing in her, so the influence is relatively strong. After some time, when I get used to it, it will be much better. You don't need to worry about it."
Hearing her clear and logical answer, Wang Hu breathed a sigh of relief, while Lu Hai pressed on, "Second Sister, do you still remember how we met?"
"Of course I remember. At that time, I remember you had just awakened and wanted to team up to go to a secret realm but no one wanted you. You were also bullied by a few ruffians, and Big Brother came to save you." Yun Qiaoqiao showed a look of recollection, and finally, a smile appeared. "At that time, you insisted on following us, even hugging Big Brother's leg and crying with tears and snot all over your face, saying that as long as you were allowed to join, you could do anything..."
"Alright, alright, that's enough!" Lu Hai quickly interrupted her, his face flushed, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that his Second Sister was fine.
Because he had seen people who had been brainwashed after joining a church; they truly became unrecognizable, not even recognizing their own parents and wives. It was hard to say if that person was still their original self. That indifferent gaze made his heart turn cold and his scalp tingle.
So no matter what, he had to verify it to ensure there were no problems before he could rest assured.
After Yun Qiaoqiao opened the door, the five of them walked into the shop together. The small shop, which was originally quite spacious, felt a little crowded with five people sitting inside.
Seeing this, Guo Jiahao scratched his head and suggested, "Our family has an idle property not far from here. Why don't we tell Boss and move the shop there? It feels a bit small here."
"Although I have no objection, this matter is clearly not something we can decide. My suggestion is to wait until Master comes back to discuss it." Guan Yang sat in a chair with great composure, and while speaking, he took out a book and began to read it, seemingly a book on military strategy.
"I agree with Senior Brother's opinion. It's better to discuss this matter when Teacher returns." Yun Qiaoqiao clasped her hands in front of her and echoed.
"Alright." Guo Jiahao was a little dejected, but then he cheered up again. "Actually, it doesn't matter if the Card Shop doesn't move. I've already thought about it. Boss said last time that he wanted to establish his own guild, so that property can be used as the guild base then!"
Hearing this, the other four were all startled. As they looked at each other, they found that they all seemed quite interested in this matter, especially Wang Hu and Lu Hai. They were originally a bit lost about their future, not knowing where to go.
Because after Yun Qiaoqiao became a disciple, it would be impossible for her to run around with them as before. In the future, they might only see each other very rarely.
Moreover, the two of them didn't want to bother Boss Lu too much, so they were a bit unsure how to choose: should they stay in Loshen City? Or should they return to Tianyuan City? They didn't know, because their strength wasn't strong, so they had very few choices.
But at this moment, hearing that Lu Chenxing had plans to establish his own guild, could they also join?
For a moment, the two were tempted, but they didn't get too happy too soon, because it would still depend on Lu Chenxing's intentions, whether he would dislike them for being of average strength.
