Chapter 94: Chapter 66 We Are Friends [5700 words mega Chapter]_3

I’ve already put it all on the line!

You always play this game with me!

Who the hell knows what you want to hear!

So frustrating.

Clenched little fists.

But the person opposite was so serious, leaving her nowhere to vent her anger, nowhere to hide her embarrassment.

Ren Zhong pretended not to see the various twisted expressions on the other’s face.

"Since you can’t say it, I’ll say it for you. After hearing about my experience, you didn’t mind my status as an outsider and immediately offered to help me. It wasn’t entirely because you needed something from me at that time. Because you didn’t really know back then how high my initial Synchronization Rate was; you only saw my Brain Reaction Index. The fundamental reason you helped me was that you saw a reflection of yourself in my situation."

"A reflection of myself?"

Ren Zhong: "Yes! Think carefully about your psychological changes the afternoon before yesterday when I came to you. Don’t speak, close your eyes, and think carefully."

Ju Qingmeng’s lips trembled, but finally, she fully obeyed Ren Zhong’s "order" and closed her eyes.

A moment later, she opened her eyes again, rubbed her forehead with a slightly puzzled look, and said uncertainly, "Mr. Ren, you’re... you’re right. But I... I can’t quite describe what I felt back then. At that time, I just thought it wasn’t a big deal, just a simple act of kindness. But if you say I’m noble, I surely am not because I’ve never done that for others in the town. I’m also not too sure what I was thinking back then."

Ren Zhong’s lips curved into a smile, "The answer is simple. In that moment, you saw me as a friend."

"A friend?"

Ren Zhong stressed his tone, firmly saying, "Yes, a friend!"

Ju Qingmeng’s confused eyes gradually became clear, "Is that so? Is this... what a friend is?"

"Of course! Because we’re friends, you helped me without expecting anything in return. So now, as your friend, I should naturally help you too. How could I ask for your body as an added condition?"

"But do friends really exist in this world? Sorry, I’ve truly never considered this before, in such haste..."

"Trust me, they do." Ren Zhong casually patted Ju Qingmeng’s shoulder, "Also, don’t despair. Didn’t you say true talent won’t be buried? I’m returning those words to you as they are. You don’t need to compromise yourself or change who you are to please someone you don’t like."

Ju Qingmeng: "But what else can I do? Even though I’m a manager now, I’m basically just a high-level salesperson, and that’s in a remote place like Starfire Town. Before I met you, I’d already given up hope."

Ren Zhong grinned, "But now you have me, don’t you?"

"This..."

Ju Qingmeng couldn’t help but scratch her head, "But to help me, you actually can’t avoid dealing with that Fourth Level Citizen. But all I gave you were some small favors; I really can’t reciprocate such a huge favor."

Ren Zhong: "Some things are big, some are small, but the intention has no difference. Also, I actually need your help too, but not in the way you think. I have my talents, and you have yours."

"What talents?"

"We can talk about that later. Since the person we need to deal with to help you is not simple, this is a very serious matter. So, I hope you can reorganize your thoughts and ask me for help again. This counts as our gentleman’s agreement as friends."

Ren Zhong cheerfully gestured, making a ’please’ gesture.

This was the sense of ritual he desired.

After a long time, Ju Qingmeng slowly said, "Mr. Ren, as your friend, I ask for your help. I’m also willing to help you. Except for that one thing, I can help you with anything!"

"Great! I want you to help me modify my equipment! From today onward, we are not only friends but also comrades in need of each other. We hit it off immediately and have related interests. This kind of relationship is more solid than physical communication."

Five minutes later, Ren Zhong left.

Since the carrying power has not yet met the standard, he can’t fully utilize even the basic equipment’s performance now, so he’s not in a hurry to modify the equipment.

...

Due to the miserable experience yesterday during the day, Zheng Tian spent an extra half an hour analyzing and studying the map of Starfire Town early this morning. After racking her brains, she finally designed a classic perfect route in her mind.

Before setting off, they cheered each other on.

Zheng Tian: "From a probability perspective, circumstances like yesterday’s are almost impossible to happen again."

Ou Youning: "That’s right! Wishing us great success today!"
