Monster Pet Evolution Chapter 148 The Feeling of Repeats

When he saw that Gao Peng and Dumby had entered the hotel, Zhang Xingxing took out his phone and dialed a number.

The phone only rang three times before it was connected.

“What did he say?” A deep voice came from the other side of the phone.

“He rejected the offer,” Zhang Xingxing answered helplessly. Nothing worked on the kid; no matter what he said, he was immovable.

After a moment of silence, the voice from the other side became lower. “I understand.”

Zhang Xingxing shrugged his shoulders. Was it really necessary? Why did the kid insist on being so stubborn?

Zhang Xingxing resolved problems through negotiation. His client, on the other hand, was not someone who only resorted to words.

However, that did not have anything to do with him. He had already done what he could. Everyone chose their own path. Whether it was good or bad, everyone needed to continue walking that path.

The boy was too young. He would understand the cruelty of the real world after experiencing more difficulties.

Zhang Xingxing shook his head and got up to leave the cafe. As soon as he left the cafe, the door closed behind him with a loud bang. Zhang Xingxing turned around and looked back. A dark and shining light came from the cold door of the cafe.

At that moment, he couldn’t see anyone around him. The street was completely empty.

A gust of wind blew past the street, and a few old newspapers flew into the air.

Zhang Xingxing felt uneasy. He turned around and banged at the door of the cafe with force. “Open the door, I left something inside.”

No reply came from within the cafe. Only his echo could be heard on the quiet street.

Footsteps came from behind him. Two people walked from either end of the street. They wore very tall hats and black trench coats. They both also had a dog leash as thick as a thumb in their hands. On the other end of the leashes were Red-haired Giant Dogs that were at least four meters tall and eight meters long.

What purpose does the leash serve?! Is the human leading the dog or the dog leading the human!

Their red eyes were void of emotions. They were cold. Although the eyes were not fixed on him, Zhang Xingxing felt a strong sense of threat.

A squeaking sound came from his chest, Zhang Xingxing unbuttoned his shirt, and a silver mouse clung to the side of his undershirt. It squealed anxiously.

Zhang Xingxing’s face turned dark. He had experienced many dangerous situations in his life, and it was thanks to the spirit mouse that he successfully escaped from life-threatening situations.

This time, he had once again perceived danger.

He attempted to summon his familiar, but there was no response, and he did not receive any warnings.

Now, Zhang Xingxing’s face changed colors.

When did he lose contact with his familiar?

He bit down hard on his lip as he gazed at the dim lights from the large hotel building. As long as he could rush over there, the unknown attackers would probably be more careful.

At the same time, Zhang Xingxing’s mind raced as he wondered if he had offended someone. It seemed like the other person was someone with weight.

It was then that Zhang Xingxing discovered, despairingly, that people in his line of work offended people often and easily. He could easily have p*ssed off any number of people.

There were too many people… It was simply impossible for him to guess who it was exactly…

However, he had long expected that this day would come. He sighed in his heart. After his death, the bank would transfer the balance in his account to his sister, and the money inside the account should be enough to last her the rest of her life.

However, even if he was prepared to die, he still wanted to try his best! Even ants strived for survival, much less a human!

Zhang Xingxing turned around quickly and pushed the metal door of the cafe.

Pang!

The metal door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhang Xingxing staggered inside.

Then, the metal door closed without any sound.

Outside the cafe, the two people with the dogs stood guard outside the cafe’s metal door. The two giant hounds stayed alert and sat obediently outside the door.

The cafe was quiet. It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a needle hitting the ground.

The only things that remained were his breath and the dim lights.

“You are Mr. Zhang Xingxing, am I correct? Sorry to take up your precious time. This is a card. There are five million Alliance credits on it. The password is six fives. Regard it as compensation for your time.” In the middle of the cafe, under the weak lights, a silver-haired old man wearing a white suit looked at him with a smile.

Zhang Xingxing felt that the scene was oddly familiar.

It… It’s probably just a coincidence.

The lights in the cafe were almost entirely extinguished, and the only light left was the table lamp emitting a warm light beside the old man.

Through the yellow light from the table lamp, Zhang Xingxing could tell that the old man was very well-built. He had wide shoulders that made the suit fit nicely. His white hair was slicked back, and his eyes were extremely bright.

Zhang Xingxing’s heart tightened the moment his gaze locked with the old man.

He suddenly felt an odd sense of guilt.

“Sir… May I ask?” Zhang Xingxing did not know when he started to stutter. It irritated him. It was not like he had never met big shots before, so what was wrong with him today?

“Mr. Zhang Xingxing, I would like to know what you said to the innocent and naive child just now,” the old man said seriously.

Why is he asking this? Zhang Xingxing was perplexed.

“I just wanted to talk to him, I wanted to ask him to quit the Alliance’s Strongest Youth Monster Trainer Competiton,” Zhang Xingxing answered cautiously.

“Right…” the old man said deeply. “And how did the boy answer?”

“He declined it. He said that he did not want to miss an opportunity to expand his horizons,” Zhang Xingxing replied honestly.

“So what do you plan to do next?” the old man asked without hurry.

“Ah?” Zhang Xingxing secretly analyzed the old man, and then thought back to Gao Peng’s look. An unbelievable thought appeared on his mind.

Boom! Something flashed through his very soul like a lightning strike.

Zhang Xingxing suddenly felt his entire soul shiver. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound.

What was his next step? Of course, he knew. It was because the next step was his design. The only question was if he dared to say it out now.

Zhang Xingxing almost cried. The calm and composure he showed earlier when negotiating with Gao Peng was long gone.

“I don’t want to hear anything about lying or cheating. I believe that your sister wouldn’t want to hear that her brother is a liar.” The old man smiled. “Otherwise, it would set a bad example for the children.”

Zhang Xingxing raised his head quickly and stared straight at the old man.

“Big brother.” A familiar voice appeared beside Zhang Xingxing. Once upon a time, this voice had made him feel immeasurable warmth, and it was his motivation for moving forward. However, right now, the sound sent chills down his spine.

He stiffly turned his head. He stared at his sister who stood not far behind him in disbelief.

“Xiao Xuan, how are you here?”

“The grandpa said that he could help me meet you. You’re always busy and not at home… It’s been a long time since I last saw you…” A young girl wearing a red and white patterned dress raised her head and glanced at Zhang Xingxing. “The grandpa also asked me to play a game with him, to not let you discover me, and as long as I could do that, he would buy me five ice creams.”

The young girl raised her white arms and extended five fingers. Her eyes were turned into reverse moons and her attractive dimples, dimples that were similar to Zhang Xingxing’s, showed as she smiled.

As she finished speaking, she noticed that the expression on her brother’s expression wasn’t great, so the little girl bit her lips and lowered her head. “Big brother, I’ll give you all my ice creams, please don’t be angry. It’s just that I’ve missed you.”

Zhang Xingxing turned around and stared straight at the old man. He said word by word, “My sister is innocent. She knows nothing. What do you want to know? I will tell you everything!”
