Chapter 36: Drawing Lots (Begging for Votes, Begging for Sponsorship)
Lei An was an old hand, and Wang Xuewu was an active member, so when Wang Xuewen arrived at the Emperor's Hall, although there were only three people in the entire large room, the atmosphere was very lively. As soon as Wang Xuewen opened the door, he heard his younger brother's joyful laughter.
"So lively?" Wang Xuewen walked in with a smile on his face, very casual.
"Brother Wang!" He Dong was the first to stand up, and Lei An also stood up afterwards.
"Brother!" Only Wang Xuewu was still sitting there due to his leg injury, but he also shouted enthusiastically.
"Hmph, you little scamp!" Wang Xuewen first glared at his own brother, then nodded towards Lei An before finally walking over to He Dong. After giving He Dong a warm hug, he said "He Laoxiong, this little scamp has caused trouble for you again!"
"Brother! What trouble have I caused for Dong Ge?" Wang Xuewu said discontentedly.
"Haha, Brother Wang, Xiao Wu didn't cause me any trouble at all. In fact, Xiao Wu and I get along very well!" He Dong helped to exonerate Wang Xuewu.
"My younger brother is quite restless, if he can be helped by Old He to restrain him a bit, then I will be at ease!" Wang Xuewen patted He Dong's shoulder, his face full of admiration.
Wang Xuewen and He Dong's intimate appearance once again excited Lei An to clench his fists, and he had already made up his mind that although He Dong did not accept his gratitude, from now on, he would absolutely treat He Dong as his superior.
"Brother Wang, let me introduce you to a friend. Lei An, the general manager of Lei An Security!" After chatting with Wang Xuewen for a few sentences, He Dong pulled Lei An over.
"Manager Lei! Hehe, I've long admired your name!" Wang Xuewen had also heard of Lei An's name, although he didn't understand what He Dong meant by introducing him to Lei An today. However, he believed that He Dong wouldn't harm him, so he smiled and extended his hand.
"Mayor Wang, hello!" Lei An immediately stretched out his hands excitedly and grasped Wang Xuewen's hand.
Although Lei An was still relatively unfamiliar to Wang Xuewen, Lei An was very good at adjusting the atmosphere, and with Wang Xuewu's occasional interjections, everyone had a great time drinking until the end of the dinner party. Just as the dinner party was about to end, He Dong secretly gave Lei An a signal.
"Xiao Wu, let's go, accompany your brother to the bathroom!" He Dong patted Wang Xuewu and then pushed the wheelchair out without saying a word.
When He Dong pushed Wang Xuewu back to the Emperor's Hall again, Wang Xuewen's hand was pressing on a black leather suitcase, and both of their expressions looked somewhat excited.
"Brother He, I will always remember your kindness!" As soon as he saw He Dong, Wang Xuewen gently patted the suitcase, his eyes shining with gratitude as he spoke to He Dong.
"No, it's all thanks to Le Ge!" He Dong hastily waved his hand and said.
"Don't worry, I've got it under control. I heard that the deputy manager of Lei An Security, Guo Ming, was framed. I'll be keeping an eye on this matter!" Wang Xuewen said with a meaningful glance at He Dong.
"Thank you, Mayor Wang! Thank you, Mayor Wang!" Guo Ming was the nickname of Knife Scar, and when Wang Xuewen mentioned it, he actually gave Lei An a reassurance pill. It was equivalent to saying that from now on, Lei An's security had hitched a ride on Mayor Wang's line, so Lei An immediately thanked him repeatedly.
"Brother, I don't want to stay in the hospital anymore!" Wang Xuewu suddenly said, perhaps seeing that everyone's mood was good.
"No way, your injury isn't healed yet, how can you not go to the hospital?!" Wang Xuewen immediately rejected Wang Xuewen's suggestion.
"Brother, it's too depressing in the hospital. If I stay there any longer, I'm afraid that even if my leg gets better, my brain will go crazy!" Wang Xuewen said with a bitter face.
"Brother Wang, to be honest, it doesn't matter whether Xiao Wu goes to the hospital or not. And with his personality, if he's really locked up in a hospital, there's even a possibility that he'll get sick from being cooped up!" He Dong said this after Wang Xuewu made some suggestive facial expressions and gestures.
"But...! I'll definitely be very busy for a while now! There's simply no time to take care of him!" Wang Xuewen said with some difficulty, casting a subtle glance at the suitcase.
"Brother Wang, how about this? I just so happen to have bought a villa in Ping'an Garden recently, and now it's just me living there, feeling a bit too empty. Why don't we let Xiao Wu stay with me for a few days?" He Dong suggested with a smile.
"Brother Dong, you are truly a living Buddha, the incarnation of Guanyin! I love you to death!" Hearing He Dong's words, Wang Xuewen hadn't spoken yet, but Wang Xuewu was already excitedly shouting on the side. If his legs were fine at this moment, he would probably jump up.
"This little rascal!" Wang Xuewen looked at his brother's anxious appearance, and suddenly scolded with a smile, then said to He Dong "Then trouble He for that!"
Finally, Wang Xuewu was able to leave the hospital and move into He Dong's villa, and Lei An even sent two clever subordinates over to accompany Wang Xuewu. After all, He Dong still had school to attend, and there was also a pet hospital to manage.
The two people sent by Lei An were quite skilled, one named Dāozi and the other named Hóuzi, both of whom were very playful and lively, and they immediately hit it off with Wang Xuewu. Moreover, the most crucial thing was that they were both among the Eight Great Golden Spears, which not only reflected Lei An's emphasis on Wang Xuewu but also enabled them to do a better job of keeping secrets.
He Dong, who had thrown out the "bomb", didn't pay much attention to when this "bomb" would explode or how powerful it would be. Although he occasionally cared about current events, most of his time was still spent accompanying his girlfriend and earning summoning points.
He Dong can now openly put his arm around Lin Xuan's slender waist, and sometimes when He Dong makes a sneak attack, Lin Xuan also shyly acknowledges it.
He Dong's summoning points have also made great progress, and he now has eighteen summoning points, which can fully summon a third-level pet.
However, for the past few days, he had been hesitant about which pet to summon first. The Ling Beast's powerful talent skills, the Magic Beast's mysterious magic, the Alien Beast's unpredictable alien powers, and the Phantom Beast's magical transformation after merging with humans all made He Dong drool.
He loves all kinds of pets and wants to see them in front of him as soon as possible, but the summoning points are limited. A third-level pet requires fifteen summoning points, and He Dong needs at least a week to earn these fifteen summoning points, which is absolutely a happy torture.
"Never mind, let's draw lots!" He Dong hesitated for half a day, finally took out a deck of cards, picked out the four 3s, and then placed the cards on the table and shuffled them.
"Plum Blossom 3? It's actually a rare beast!" He Dong closed his eyes to draw a card, only opening them afterwards.
With a choice made, He Dong didn't hesitate anymore, quickly entering the summoning space and appearing in front of Plum Blossom 3, silently chanting "Summon!"
