Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

Si Peng must have eaten too much rat meat, which is why he suddenly started bleeding from his nose.

  Although there was no direct evidence, Li Kai's intuition told him that this was the truth of the matter.

  …

  Si Peng's nosebleed only lasted for a short while. After that, he didn't eat porridge again, and his nosebleed stopped.

  After breakfast, Li Kai and Si Peng left the apartment and went to where Si Peng worked.

  These two days happened to be Saturday and Sunday, and the real estate company where Si Peng worked was holding an event to sell properties, and they hired a group of people to create an atmosphere.

  Li Kai actually didn't want to go, he had more important things to do.

  But he had already promised Si Peng this last week, and it would be inappropriate to go back on his word now, so he just followed him anyway.

  This was not the first time that Li Kai had done this kind of work. Si Peng knew that he was financially tight, so he would basically ask him to come whenever there was such an activity.

After so many times, Li Kai had accumulated a lot of experience and became more and more skilled.

  When they arrived, Si Peng went to punch in, while Li Kai pretended to look at the real estate models in the sales office lobby.

  At this time, there were already a few scattered customers looking at the house.

  As time went by, more and more people came to see the house, and the entire sales office was filled with customers looking at the house.

  The entire real estate site looked very hot.

  However, Li Kai knew that this only looked popular. He didn't know how many of the people who came to see the house were agents like him.

  If it was really half as popular, Si Peng wouldn't have the time to leisurely eat fruit and wander around bored, so why bother chatting with him?

  When he went to get his lunch box, Li Kai saw a long queue with dozens of people, all of whom were there to act as agents like him.

  Looking at it this way, the number of customers who actually came to see the house in the morning was less than half of the number who were recommended.

  Li Kai was speechless about this.

  However, by the afternoon, there were obviously more people coming to see the house, especially at two or three o'clock, when it was almost crowded.

  This time, Li Kai finally saw that Si Peng was too busy to wander around, so he started to get busy.

  It was like this until six o'clock in the afternoon, when everything was finally over.

  Another day wasted successfully.

  This is Li Kai's realization today.

  "Don't rush back later, there will be activities in the evening."

  When Li Kai was about to leave, he saw this message from Si Peng.

  "What activities?"

  He asked, but did not get a reply from Si Peng.

  After waiting for about ten minutes, just when Li Kai was about to make a phone call, he saw Si Peng coming to find him, and he brought a girl with him.

  The girl was not very old, and looked to be in her early twenties. Her face looked delicate with light makeup on.

She was wearing a light yellow tight dress, which perfectly brought out her exquisite figure. She was full of purity and a little bit of charm.

  "Let me introduce you to each other. This is my good buddy, Li Kai." Si Peng introduced the two of them briefly, "This is Wang Yao, my boyfriend's best friend."

  "Linlin is on her way now. She will be here soon. When she arrives, let's go eat hotpot together. I have something to do over there. You two can play around for a while. I'll be there soon."

  After greeting the two of them, Si Peng left in a hurry.

  Before leaving, Si Peng whispered in Li Kai's ear: "Wang Yao is still a college student and has no boyfriend. You should seize the opportunity."

  "…"

  Li Kai didn't know whether he should thank Si Peng or kick the fat guy in the ass.

  Given his current situation, he has no time to think about finding a partner.

  "Hello, I'm Wang Yao." Wang Yao is petite and speaks softly, "Nice to meet you."

  "I'm Li Kai... Hello."

  After saying that, Li Kai fell silent. He didn't know what to talk to the other party about.

  Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

  "Are you Ran Linlin's classmate?"

  Li Kai brought up a random topic.

  Ran Linlin is Si Peng's girlfriend. She is two years younger than Si Peng and is currently a sophomore in college.

  Wang Yao shook her head: "No, my friend and Linlin are in the same dormitory, and we often hang out together and got to know each other..."

  With a topic to talk about, the two quickly started chatting.

  Through chatting, Li Kai learned that Wang Yao was currently studying at Linhai College of Economics and was just in his sophomore year.

His alma mater was Linhai University, so the two jokingly called each other senior and junior.

  In fact, although both schools begin with the word "Linhai", they are actually very different and cannot be generalized.

  However, Li Kai did not feel any contempt for others due to the difference in their schools. Although he was known as a top student, based on his current situation, how could he have the qualifications to look down on others?

  "Where do you work now, senior? It must be a good job! My best friend's brother also graduated from Linhai University. He joined Haiye Group right after graduation. Now he is less than 30 years old, but his annual salary is already 500,000."

  Wang Yao's eyes showed a look of longing and envy.

  "…I haven't found a job yet. I'm still unemployed."

  Li Kai sighed softly, and couldn't help but envy the senior that Wang Yao mentioned.

  If he could have such a good job, he wouldn't have to rely on adventures to explore another world to make money to treat his illness.

  "Senior, you must be joking. How can a graduate from Linhai University not find a good job?"

  Wang Yao didn't believe it.

  In her opinion, those who can be admitted to Linhai University are all gifted children, so how could they not find a good job?

  "I'm not lying to you. My major is not that good, and the economy is so bad right now." Li Kai shook his head. "If I had a job, why would I come here to be a shill?"

  "What do you mean by 'trustee'?" Wang Yao didn't understand what he meant at first. It was only after Li Kai explained it that she finally reacted.

  At the same time, she finally believed that Li Kai did not lie to her.

  "Is the economy really that bad now?" Wang Yao opened her mouth in disbelief. "I thought everyone was just talking nonsense."

  "…"

  The two were still chatting as before, but Li Kai could feel that Wang Yao's enthusiasm for him had obviously faded a lot.

  Although he didn't have any thoughts, Li Kai couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable after feeling the other party's changes.

  However, this feeling was fleeting and he quickly put it aside.

  The conversations between the two began to become less and less, and when Si Peng came back, they had completely run out of topics to talk about.
