Skeleton’s Training Manual - Chapter 47

Chapter 47: 047 Master Li

With Hao Zhijian’s plea.

Lu Wu ‘unwillingly’ brought this teammate to Li Kai.

Hao Zhijain was obviously very excited to finally get the chance to meet Master Li after three long days.

In order to give Li Kai a good impression, both Hao Zhijain and his father made a lot of preparations as well.

He dressed appropriately and even had etiquette training if it wasn’t because it would be too abrupt, Hao Zhijian’s father wanted to meet Li Kai personally.

Well, in the end, his father did not come along, but Hao Zhijian did bring a gift that was special but not very valuable.

From their point of view, hidden bosses like Li Kai would have been used to seeing these ‘expensive’ gifts and it wouldn’t work by just throwing money at him. Therefore, they picked up a gift that they deemed appropriate for Li Kai’s status.

In response, Lu Wu made an irritated face.

However, he did not say much; since they were giving it to Li Kai and not him.

Plus, Lu Wu was in no position to make any comment about this.

When Hao Zhijian entered the store and presented the gift, Li Kai responded with a disdainful look towards the gift and stared at Hao Zhijian with a cold look on his face.

Of course, this wasn’t completely just a show.

He originally already had such a personality.

Li Kai liked being along which was also why Lu Wu never got to talk to Li Kai as well when he first started working at the store.

After that, when Lu Wu showed his talent that attracted Li Kai, this fella slowly melted the ice around him and became incredibly enthusiastic and respectful towards Lu Wu.

But that was how he treated Lu Wu and his knowledge.

As for “fat sheeps” like He Zhijin, why should he be nice to him?

His cold face made it unbearable for He Zhijian since he was still a young lad. Although he had met some obstacles before this, there were still a lot of things in the society that he hadn’t been through which was why he still wasn’t used to being treated this way.

It was Lu Wu who noticed his discomfort and helped him instead.

“Uncle Li, Zhijian wants to join my team for the National’s High School League. He came here to meet you today because he needed your help!”

Then, Lu Wu gave Hao Zhijian a slight nudge.

Hao Zhijian, who had no idea that Lu Wu was actually the villain, turned around and looked at Lu Wu with a grateful look. Then, he said to Li Kai respectfully, “Master Li, I’ve heard about your expertise in breeding summoned beasts and have given tremendous help to him and Tutu. That’s why I have been longing to meet you. I’ve purposely come over today to meet you and was hoping that you could help me as well. I would like you to take a look at my summoned beast!”

When Hao Zhijian said this, he was not aware that both Lu Wu and Tutu became unhappy.

Who the f**k do you think you are? Is ‘Tutu’ something that you can simply call?

If it wasn’t because he was the ‘fat sheep’, both of them would have started a couple’s mixed double match.

As for Li Kai who was paying attention to Lu Wu, he noticed Lu Wu’s change of expression, and then his own face turned dark as well as he said, “No, I’m not free for this!”

As Li Kai replied with these cold words, Hao Zhijian panicked.

He had no idea what to do. He was saying as many nice things as he could and even begged Li Kai, but none of them worked. Instead, Li Kai only agreed when the ‘kind-hearted’ Lu Wu who couldn’t bear it anymore helped to convince Li Kai.

“Since you’re Xiao Lu’s teammate, I will make an exception today. Bring your bird here!”

Hao Zhijian was overjoyed. He quickly handed over his bird and nervously stood at the side.

Li Kai took over Hao Zhijian’s bird and looked at it carefully.

As soon as he was done, his face turned dark and he shook his head. “Such a good summoned beast but completely ruined because of its training, what a waste!”

This was definitely not music to Hao Zhijian’s ears.

What did he mean when he said he ruined it? He was sure that he had been giving his summoned beast the best care. Look at how fat and healthy his bird was! It’s so strong and its attack was sharp as well.

Before meeting Tutu and Lu Wu, he and his bird were the undefeatable duo.

Did this old man know what he’s saying?!

Of course, Hao Zhijian had no balls to say these things out loud, but all of his emotions were seen on his face.

Li Kai frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? You don’t agree?”

Hao Zhijian’s face changed and said, “No, I trust whatever you say.”

“Hmph, liar. I don’t want to waste any more time on you. Because of Lu Wu, I’ll give you a small reminder. You have been training your summoned beast in the wrong way and you’re wasting its talent. If you don’t believe me, you can try putting your bird inside the freezer for one night! That’s all I want to say, now go away!”

Then, Li Kai waved his hand and signaled for him to leave before walking back to his studio.

This shocked Hao Zhijian and just when he thought that the meeting was over, Li Kai who was walking back to his studio felt his phone vibrate. He took a look at it and then said to Lu Wu.

“Xiao Lu, don’t forget to get the consultation fees!”

Then, Li Kai walked out of the room into the studio leaving Hao Zhijian confused by the side. “Consultation fees? What consultation fees?”

“Uncle Li would usually charge for a consultation, starting from a hundred thousand yuan. Since you’re my classmate and also my teammate, I’ll give you a discount. It’ll be 99,500 yuan for you!”

Hao Zhijian’s face turned completely dark. His relationship with Lu Wu was only worth 500 yuan?

Also, this man was trying to charge him a hundred thousand yuan just for that small talk that they had? This was daylight robbery!

However, he didn’t say much and also couldn’t make the decision himself. So, he came up with an excuse to call his father.

Hao Zhijian’s father, Hao Renjie, also thought that the consultation fee of a hundred thousand was a little too much, but for Hao Zhijian’s future, they still decided to pay Li Kai.

In the end, Hao Zhijian handed over the hundred thousand yuan that Hao Renjie transferred to him and left the store in a bad mood.

As Lu Wu saw him leave, he couldn’t help but smile while he looked at the sheep that he just slaughtered.

That’s right. The consultation fees that suddenly came out of nowhere was all Lu Wu’s idea.

He had two reasons why he did this. One, it was to give Li Kai an image of a money-grubber.

This was to prevent Hao Zhijian from bringing any more invaluable gifts. Lu Wu was worried that if he didn’t make up this image for Li Kai, Hao Zhijian would have no way of kissing up to Li Kai’s ass.

The other reason was that this bastard called her ‘Tutu’!

Lu Wu was such a ‘nice’ person, how could he allow Hao Zhijian to call his Tutu so lovingly?!

He hadn’t even seen Tutu in her best form and was already calling her so carelessly. What would happen if Zhijian saw it in the future? He obviously would have to help him change this bad habit of his.

Hmm… Hao Zhijian never would have guessed that because of his actions of wanting to look like he was a close friend of Lu Wu by addressing ‘Tutu’ directly, he had to pay the price of a hundred thousand yuan.

Of course, he had no time to think about these. Hao Zhijian had another thing on his mind, should he really listen to Li Kai and put his bird in the freezer?
