Chapter 82: Chapter 77: Gambling God, Sheng Jiang, Bulb, Good Girl
March 21, afternoon at one.
Chen Yun, who had spent the whole morning constantly infusing half of the plants with Killing Intent, was playing a game, being a law-abiding good citizen.
According to the short-term plan 4.0, he should have continued exploring the soul in the afternoon.
But having explored for the whole day yesterday, Chen Yun was almost certain that there were no souls in the world, or rather, he was currently unable to perceive them.
So, there was naturally no need for such plans temporarily.
After finishing his muscle tremor exercise and feeding the dog at noon, Chen Yun turned on the computer and began enjoying his game life.
Compared to competitive games, Chen Yun naturally preferred other games more now.
However, whenever Chen Yun accidentally killed a dog-owning NPC in the game and got killed by the dog, he would use his telekinesis to smack the butt of silly dog Bai Jin, who was gnawing on a bone, as a form of retaliation.
Such actions always left silly dog Bai Jin looking around in bafflement.
He hadn’t been playing for long.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
His always-on Transparent World swept through and noticed Bai Shi standing at the entrance.
Chen Yun raised his eyebrows.
He opened the door and looked at Bai Shi, "What’s up? Didn’t I return your car keys? Aren’t you going on a date with your girlfriend?"
He looked at Bai Shi with some confusion.
This guy had just confirmed his relationship with Sun Huwen; it should be their loved-up period.
Moreover, one was unemployed, and the other was a bookstore owner; theoretically, they could go out every day without any life pressures.
Why did he have time to visit him now?
"Werner Meck once said that a person who cannot find time for leisure will soon have to find time for illness."
"Interested in going out? Dart experience hall!"
Bai Shi, dressed in casual attire, jiggled the car keys in his hand, extending an invitation to Chen Yun.
This made Chen Yun silently frown.
"You... are inviting me... out to play?"
"Don’t you want your girlfriend to come along?"
"What’s your motive here?"
Chen Yun looked at Bai Shi in front of him and raised his eyebrows.
Out of the jest commonly shared among troublesome friends, he straightforwardly questioned.
"I really have no ulterior motive."
"A quite wealthy second-generation owes me a favor. He’s opened a dart experience hall in Qingyang District and invited some dart players for a performance today. Plus, there’ll be a deluxe buffet and some celebrities performing. It’s not open to the public."
"I can bring three family members~"
"I asked Xiao Wen to bring a friend too; might as well all go together and have fun, don’t waste the slots."
Bai Shi said, giving Chen Yun a suggestive eyebrow raise.
Clearly, this time he genuinely wanted to share some good stuff with his brother.
"You were always abroad, skulking and hiding. How could you possibly have a second-generation owing you a favor back home?"
Chen Yun asked curiously.
Bai Shi had told him he used to steal art and even forge art pieces for money abroad as a pirate.
"Well, I’ve been back in the country for four or five years now, and there are plenty who owe me favors."
"This guy, due to some conflicts with a capital group in Lighthouse Country, I had Morgan Law Firm, which has better connections there, mediate for him."
"So he owes me big time."
"Without the Raphael painting I once gifted to the head of Morgan Law Firm, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to rope in such a legal bigwig."
Bai Shi boasted about his past achievements with a laugh.
Since he had opened up to Chen Yun, he no longer concealed his past.
Instead, he often bragged to Chen Yun about how incredibly awesome he used to be.
For example, he had worn the Thorny Crown of Jesus from the Notre-Dame Cathedral; he had helped someone make a counterfeit of the Hammurabi Code in the Louvre; he had forged and sold a pirated version of Tutankhamun’s Golden Mask from Egypt...
Such exaggerated bragging was certainly not believed by Chen Yun.
However, Chen Yun understood one thing: Bai Shi had likely really gifted someone a famous painting by Raphael since he indeed had connections with the Morgan Law Firm.
In the past, when Chen Yun wanted the gaming platform to not disclose his personal information, he had Bai Shi send a legal letter on his behalf.
At that time, Bai Shi had sent a letter from the Morgan Law Firm to ensure its effectiveness.
Moreover, when Bai Shi had helped him deal with the exposure incident at the internet celebrity shop, he probably had leveraged the name of the Morgan Law Firm with the newspaper’s owner.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to negotiate.
So, after a moment of contemplation, even though he wasn’t too keen to go out, Chen Yun nodded at Bai Shi in front of him and asked, "When do we leave?"
"Now!"
Bai Shi laughed as he shook his car keys in his hand.

In the warm, sunny afternoon, nature was thriving and vibrant.
A gentle breeze, carrying the scent of flowers and the freshness of new life, blew across the flowering land, making the petals sway gently like dancers in the air.
Sitting in the back seat of Bai Shi’s Cadillac, Chen Yun quietly looked at the scenery outside.
It was now one and a half past noon.
Having agreed to go out, Chen Yun was now going with Bai Shi to pick up his girlfriend, Sun Huwen, along with a friend Sun Huwen had brought along.
They were not driving slowly.
Soon, they stopped at the entrance of a residential area.
Bai Shi honked the horn, and two girls chatting at the gate looked over.
Then one girl pulled the other towards them.
Using Transparent World 3.0, Chen Yun looked at the two girls approaching.
Leading the way was a girl in a beige beret and a white mid-length skirt.
The white skirt was lightweight and well-fitted, naturally falling to her knees and outlining her slender, elegant legs. Each step she took seemed to carry a breeze, exuding a graceful and composed rhythm. The folds of the skirt shimmered softly in the sunlight, reflecting her gentle and pure side.
That light fruity fragrance mixed with the scent of oak clearly belonged to Sun Huwen.
Following her, a cool-looking girl was being pulled along by her side.
This cool girl wore a sky-blue short-sleeved shirt, as bright and refreshing as a clear sky, giving her a free-spirited vibe.
With her confident stride, she radiated healthy skin and youthful energy.
Her outfit was completed with light blue gradient jeans, which transitioned from light to dark like the ripples of a summer ocean, instantly giving the ordinary jeans an artistic and designed look.
The trouser legs were slightly rolled up, revealing her slim ankles, paired with a pair of white canvas shoes, giving her an overall look that was both fashion-forward and retained the honesty of a young girl.
"Hello there~ Lighthouse, and Mr. Gambling God~"
Sun Huwen smiled slightly as she appeared at the passenger window that was rolled down, showing her bright eyes and white teeth. Chen Yun thought to himself how lucky Bai Shi was.
"Get in, Sweetheart."
"And who might this be?"
Bai Shi smiled at Sun Huwen, using their intimate nicknames, then turned his puzzled gaze to the other girl outside the car.
"This is Sheng Jiang! My bestie! Like ginger, she’s spicy on the outside but warms the heart and spleen inside, really a warm-hearted and tough person~"
Sun Huwen smiled slightly, wrapping her arm around the shoulder of the cool girl as she introduced her.
"Hello, my name is Jiang Anping."
The cool girl named Jiang Anping glanced at the flakey natural nitwit beside her who was casually using nicknames, and calmly introduced herself to Bai Shi and Chen Yun.
