Cosmic Trading System

Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Apology

The surrounding bodyguards stared, astonished by this scene.

They knew their young mistress was usual lively and adorable, but they didn't expect to see this side of her, and for her to display it publicly.

However, recalling their young mistress's ferocity from many instances, they quickly turned their heads to look elsewhere.

But to be truthful, they were also taken aback and excited by the effects of the Qingyun Supreme, a drink given by Lin Yun. They had never imagined it would have such effects.

Among them, two or three had been stuck at their training bottleneck. The drink they had earlier gave them a sense of imminent breakthrough. It seemed likely that if they practiced harder, they might break through this barrier. In crucial times, consuming this type of drink held significant implications for people like them.

They knew this kind of wine was unreachable to most people, even those with money.

Now that they knew of the Qingyun Supreme's effects, it gave them a new aim.

"Don't you have a free gold card? Your consumption at Qingyun Restaurant is free, isn't it?" Lin Yun said with a slight smile.

"Can the young mistress use the Qingyun Restaurant's free gold card?"

"Isn't it said, that when the young mistress orders the Qingyun Supreme at Qingyun Restaurant, it would also be free?"

Many bodyguards were astounded. They didn't know about Lin Mengmeng having a gold card for free dining at Qingyun Restaurant.

With this wine as a daily supplement, the young mistress's progress would surely quicken.

"Humph, you think I'm ignorant. Although you've given me a free gold card, this wine is so expensive, how could I spend so freely!" Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, Lin Mengmeng rolled her eyes and said.

"How about this, if you're just consuming this wine for martial arts, one drink a day is sufficient. You can have a bottle every month, how about that?" Lin Yun thought for a moment and suggested.

"No, this wine is too expensive. One bottle is enough for me," Lin Mengmeng replied, after giving Lin Yun a deep glance. She blushed again as she spoke.

Each bottle of this wine, costing over ten million, wasn't cheap.

A bottle every month amounted to over a hundred million a year.

What was her relationship with Lin Yun for him to allow her such extravagance?

Even as a marriage gift, it was very pot generous!

Tut tut tut!

What was she thinking! Lin Yun was Qingqing's boyfriend. She and Qingqing were so close now, she couldn't possibly think like this!

Although Lin Yun was indeed agreeable to her, she couldn't have such thoughts!

Otherwise, how was she different from those women, those mistresses who seduced her friends' boyfriends?

As she thought about this, Lin Mengmeng's face grew even redder.

Seeing Lin Mengmeng's refusal, Lin Yun's favorable impression of her increased.

He had practiced martial arts from a young age and understood the hardships of martial arts' practice. He was also very aware of the effects of this wine on martial arts practitioners. Not every individual could resist such a temptation.

Compared to his previous idea of considering limiting Lin Mengmeng if she were to consume a large amount of this expensive wine, he felt less gentlemanly.

"The free gold card is my gift to you. As you put it, it makes me embarrassed. How about this: I'll give you three bottles of Qingyun Supreme. In the future, if you wish to purchase this wine, I'll give you a 50% discount, how does that sound?" Lin Yun thought for a moment and suggested.

"If it really troubles you, I have something over here that could use your help." Seeing Lin Mengmeng's hesitation, Lin Yun smiled.

"What is it?" Lin Mengmeng curiously asked.

"As you saw earlier, I beat up Jiang Yufeng. As you said, his family has substantial influence. If I were to severely injure him, I would likely face some trouble. If you could help me handle this problem, I'll give you two more bottles of the Qingyun Supreme, five in total. If you purchase this wine in the future, I'll still give you a 50% discount, how about it?" Lin Yun explained.

"Even though it's a difficult issue, five bottles of Qingyun Supreme seems excessive. Just give me three bottles, and I'll help you resolve this matter," Lin Mengmeng shook her head and responded.

"Deal," Lin Yun replied with a slight smile.

Perhaps, three bottles of Qingyun Supreme were somewhat excessive.

Three bottles of Qingyun Supreme were worth over thirty million, after all.

He had just checked through the Cosmic Trading System and found that the strength of Jiang Group was roughly equivalent to that of Tianyu Group.

Last time, he spent eight million to settle the issue of him injuring Zhang Tianyu. This time, he thought, it shouldn't cost much more than that.

However, the real costs weren't calculated that way; there was also the matter of compensating for Lin Mengmeng's free gold card and the current discount he was giving her.

Three bottles of Qingyun Supreme, with a 50% discount, amounted to just over ten million.

Besides, Lin Mengmeng could now be considered his friend, and between friends, there shouldn't be too much quibbling over monetary matters.

They were only Spirit Energy Points, after all.

With the current Cosmic Trading System, those could be absorbed back in an hour or two.

While speaking, Lin Yun turned his head and had one of his bodyguards retrieve three more bottles of Qingyun Supreme from his car.

"Lin Yun, thank you so much!" Lin Mengmeng said joyfully.

"You're welcome!" Lin Yun replied with a smile.

...

Lin Yun and his group left the class reunion early.

Although many classmates ultimately changed their views on Xia Qingqing and Lin Yun, Xia Qingqing was still somewhat melancholic about her pragmatic classmates and this all too real world.

Compared to Xia Qingqing's feelings, Zhang Yaoyao was even more dejected. The boyfriend she'd treated wholeheartedly turned out to be such a person. Naturally, she couldn't keep him as her boyfriend anymore.

Zhang Yaoyao had seemed alright before getting in the car, but once they were on the road, she started to space out.

Xia Qingqing and Lin Mengmeng tried their best to console Zhang Yaoyao.

Close to their destination, Zhang Yaoyao finally started to cheer up and resumed chatting with Xia Qingqing and Lin Mengmeng.

"I'm sorry, Lin Yun. I treated you poorly before, and then there's the matter with Zhang Xuan…" After getting off the car, Zhang Yaoyao walked timidly up to Lin Yun, expressing her regret.

"It's fine, you were tricked by him as well." Lin Yun replied with a gentle smile.

Earlier, when he was in the car with Xia Qingqing, Lin Mengmeng, and Zhang Yaoyao, he overheard their conversation. Zhang Yaoyao had already given up on Zhang Xuan and this wasn't her fault.

In fact, when Qi Nan had mocked him previously, Zhang Yaoyao had even stepped forward to stand up for him. As for the incident on the school's internet, even though Zhang Yaoyao was the cause, she did not do it intentionally. If he resented her for that, then he would be no better than a petty man.

Seeing Lin Yun's forgiving demeanor, Zhang Yaoyao felt a wave of relief.

She was afraid that Lin Yun would remember her past behavior and gradually distance himself.

It wasn't that she wanted to take advantage of Lin Yun's recent success.

Rather, Lin Yun was Xia Qingqing's boyfriend, and she didn't want any discord with her best friend's boyfriend.

From Lin Yun's response, it seemed that he was very magnanimous.

In fact, upon further reflection, she had said some harsh things to Lin Yun in the past, but he never seemed to take it to heart and was always polite to her.

And with this realization, Zhang Yaoyao felt more remorseful.

She had tried numerous times to persuade Xia Qingqing to abandon Lin Yun and choose a boyfriend with better conditions.

Looking back now, she was glad that Xia Qingqing didn't listen to her. Otherwise, she would have missed out on such a great guy.

She, on the other hand, ended up with a terrible boyfriend. Fortunately, she never gave her body to him and never had much physical contact with him. She felt a sense of relief at this, because if she had gone further, she would have been devastated.
