BXBX NOVEL Chapter 370: In a Relationship
With his backpack on, he left Qiao Yin’s apartment complex and boarded an unassuming black sedan parked by the roadside.
The driver was Shu, whom Qiao Yin had met twice.
“Mr. Bai is waiting for you at the base; you’re already half an hour late.”
“I had to take care of some personal matters, just drive faster.”
Shu looked at him in the rearview mirror and wondered, “How did your bruises heal so fast? Weren’t you all battered and bleeding profusely last night?”
“I’m young, I recover quickly, unlike you old folks who take several days to recover after a beating.”
Shu gnashed his teeth. “I’m only ten years older than you! I’m only twenty-six, I’m not old! Don’t think I won’t hit you just because you’re the successor!”
Jiasen seemed unperturbed, “You can’t beat me anyway, save the tough talk for someone else, don’t bite your tongue.”
Shu’s face reddened, but he bit back any further retorts.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to fight back, but he really couldn’t beat Jiasen now.
Jiasen was an oddity; he learned everything quickly. What’s more, despite his privileged upbringing, he was even tougher than those in the organization who came from impoverished backgrounds.
Shu glanced at him again, found the bruises on his refined face almost gone, and was quite surprised.
He was young once, too. He knew how long it usually took for bruises to fade.
Could it be that Jiasen is a freak of nature too, able to recover faster than normal people?
Jiasen saw Shu observing him, but he didn’t say anything.
His recovery rate was no different from ordinary people. The only difference was the medication given to him by Qiao Yin.
Despite Qiao Yin’s overly romantic tendencies, she descended from a lineage of medical practitioners and had exceptional talents. Any medication she gave always worked wonders.
Because it worked so amazingly well, he didn’t want to tell Shu and bring unnecessary trouble to Qiao Yin.
Twenty minutes later, Jiasen arrived at the base.
Mr. Bai had been waiting for a long time, but he didn’t show any signs of impatience. When he saw Jiasen, he even smiled, “You really are young, your injuries healed so quickly. I thought you wouldn’t make it today.”
“I will be training less in the future. Can we adjust the training plan to condense the timeframe?”
“Of course, the program will be adjusted, but the impact is not significant. The boss never intended for you to spend every day on physical training. He’d even arrange schooling for you abroad so that you can continue your studies. The successor to the assassin organization must be educated.”
“Alright, then let’s get started!”
“Today’s training session is shooting. We’ve got a world champion shooter to coach you. Go ahead. The coach isn’t from our organization, so don’t reveal your identity.”
“I understand.”
Jiasen stepped into the shooting training ground, had just greeted the coach when his mobile phone rang.
Considering the severe consequences of his previous unavailability to take calls, he had turned his phone ringer to the loudest setting, ready to answer at any moment.
He glanced at it; it was Qiao Yin calling.
He answered: “What is it now?”
“Where are you? Jiasen, why didn’t you go home?! Didn’t you promise me you’d stay at home and rest?”
“I’ll go home and lay down in a bit.”
“What are you doing now?”
Jiasen, upon a whim, bluffed, “I’m dating.”
The shooting coach jumped in surprise and nervously glanced around.
There’s no one here!
Who is this student saying he is dating?!
“What? You have a girlfriend now?”
“Not yet, I’m still pursuing.”
“Don’t you think it’s a bit early? I think it would be better if you waited until college to date.”
“I’m just practicing for the future. It would prevent me from ending up like you, lacking dating experience, falling head over heels for the first guy you see.”
“I didn’t, I—”
“Gotta hang up..”
