Chapter 49: Young Master from Chang’an, Arcanist Family
Ling Jiu turned his head and saw a group of people approaching. Although they looked young and green, all of them were well-dressed.
The boys were in suits and leather shoes, the girls in thick make-up. If it weren’t for the familiar faces, Ling Jiu would have thought this was a group of successful people in society.
That’s right!
This group of people was Ling Jiu’s high school classmates, classmates whom he had not seen since the awakening of his Arcana.
At this moment, everyone looked at Ling Jiu with completely different gazes. The female classmates’ gazes were fierce as if they wanted to swallow Ling Jiu whole.
Ling Jiu awakening his Arcana, and then getting first place in the trial assessment. Plus, the matter of him signing an A+ contract with Pangu Arcana Combine had long been spread among his classmates.
That was an A+ contract, with a monthly salary of a million, with an annual salary in the tens of millions. If they became Ling Jiu’s girlfriend, would it not mean that they were set for life?
So many of the girls’ gazes were bare, and if Ling Jiu wanted anything special out of them, they would not be objecting to it.
In contrast, most of the boys were jealous and hateful. They were jealous of Ling Jiu’s bullshit luck, jealous of him attracting all of the girls’ attention the moment he appeared which made them feel like they were non-existent.
Li Kai too was in the crowd. He approached Ling Jiu and said in a low voice. “Alright, Ol’ Ling, you told me you’re not coming, but you ended up coming here yourself. Could it be that you cannot hold back from showing off, and wanted to show off before your classmates?”
“The hell you talking about?”
Ling Jiu rolled his eyes and was about to explain, but Li Kai said with an expression that he understood everything .”No need to explain, bro. I understand!”
“Heh, since you want to show off, how about I play along with you, being bros and all? Don’t you worry, I’ll play along with you all the way!”
“The hell you on about?”
Ling Jiu punched him on the shoulder. “I have an appointment with a friend for dinner here today. I’m not here for the class reunion! Besides, how would I know you guys were gathering here, you didn’t tell me anything!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Ugh...”
Li Kai was taken aback. Yeah, I didn’t tell him, how did Ol’ Ling find out? Did he secretly read the announcement in the class chatroom?
“Everyone’s here!
At this moment, a sweet voice rang out, and everyone turned their heads around.
What they saw was a girl with red wavy hair, in a red short skirt and red high heels walking over. Her appearance was at least worth seven points, looking quite charming and alluring.
And the girl was holding the arm of a handsome young man. This young man was dressed in suit and leather shoes, handsome and cool-looking, obviously a top-tier good-looking hunk.
“Wu Na, you’re here!”
The classmates greeted the girl one after another, the boys were looking at the girl with eager eyes. Wu Na was one of the prettiest girls in their class, and even in the entire grade she was one of the top beauties and was the goddess in their dreams.
“Wu Na, is he your boyfriend?”
A girl with freckles on her face stared at the young man beside Wu Na.
“Alright!”
Wu Na smiled faintly and introduced him with gusto. “I want to introduce him to all of you, this is my boyfriend, Ai Jiacheng, from Chang’ang’an Base City!”
“Hello, everyone!”
Ai Jiacheng smiled and greeted everyone, with two shallow dimples appearing at the corners of his mouth, making him look even more handsome. Many of the girls were dazzled.
“Wow! Wu Na, your boyfriend is so handsome!”
“Wu Na, you are so lucky. How did you get your hands on this handsome guy? But both of you are good-looking, a real match there!”
All of the girls were effusive in their praises, although they all envied Wu Na’s luck, looks alone won’t fill their bowls, so their eyes soon fell back onto Ling Jiu as they started chatting again.
“Ling Jiu, after becoming an Arcanist, have you forgotten about us, your old classmates? We don’t see you in the group chat either, not really friendly no?”
“He’s now an employee of Pangu Arcana Combine, with a monthly salary of a million, living in a stand-alone villa, it’s understandable if he had forgotten about us!”
“Sad...”
Seeing the girls chattering about Ling Jiu, Wu Na’s boyfriend Ai Jiacheng immediately got upset. He whispered to his girlfriend next to him. “Who’s that guy? Such a big shot?”
“He’s Ling Jiu, one of the two Arcanists who had awakened their Arcana in our class. He was later hired by Pangu Arcana Combine and signed an A+ contract with him. He’s possibly the most well-off of all classmates!”
Wu Na explained in a low voice, her gaze upon Ling Jiu was also somewhat different.
After Ling Jiu’s awakening, she also had some thoughts about Ling Jiu, but as the distance between her and Ling Jiu got farther and farther, those thoughts gradually faded away.
However, she felt that she was lucky that nothing happened between her and Ling Jiu as her current boyfriend Ai Jiacheng was a hundred times better than Ling Jiu, whether it was in terms of ability, skill, or family background.
“So he’s just an ordinary Arcanist, I thought he was some big shot!”
After listening to his girlfriend’s introduction, Ai Jiacheng sneered and deliberately amplified his voice a little bit. “As I expected, how can a small medium-sized base city have badass characters!”
As soon as he said that, everyone frowned slightly, and Wu Nia immediately said. “Sorry, he’s just like that, don’t take it to heart!”
“Wu Na, your boyfriend has a big background huh!”
Li Kai sneered. “I do want to know what exactly his identity is, after degrading our Lantian Base City to nothing in a single breath.”
Wu Na had brought her boyfriend to the class reunion today to show off, how could she hold back after hearing that.
She pretended to be reserved and smiled. “Don’t be fooled by him, he’s actually quite ordinary, from the Ai Family of Chang’an Base City!”
“The Ai Family of Chang’an Base City?”
Many classmates had a blank look on their faces, but one of the boy’s expressions changed. “Could it be that Ai Family?”
“Zhang Lun, you know of the Ai family?”
The classmates looked at the boy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Of course!”
The boy named Zhang Lun looked at Ai Jiacheng in awe, before explaining. “You should know that Chang’an Base City is the only large base city in the northwest region, with a population of over 100 million!”
“Plus, Chang’an Base City is also the main base city in the northwest region. Its status is equivalent to the provincial capital 30 years ago, while a small-medium-sized Lantian Base City is just a satellite base city!”
“We all know what you said, what does this have to do with the Ai family?” The classmates were puzzled.
“I’m telling you these to let you guys know that Chang’an Base City is very big, be it status, strength, or economy, it is far above Lantian Base City!”
Zhang Lun continued. “And the Ai Family could be said to be the number one family in Chang’an Base City!”
“The number one family of Chang’an Base City?”
Everyone’s expressions changed one after another, the number one family of such a large base city?
How does this even begin to compare?
“The Ai Family does not engage in business, politics, or the military, and in those three sectors, they may not be as prominent as the Yang, or the Mo family, but the Ai family is good at producing Arcanists!”
Zhang Lun said slowly. “There’s a saying in Chang’an Base City that there was a one in ten chance of a person from the Ai family to be an Arcanist. A ratio of 10:1, can you imagine that?”
“That over the top?”
Everyone could not help but gasp. The chances of an ordinary person becoming an Arcanist is 1000:1, but the Ai family’s ratio was 10:1.
This was just way over the top!
“Because of this, the Ai family is also known as the Arcanist Family. I’ve heard that the Ai family had given birth to many Arcanists with terrifying powers, with many people working in both Pangu, and Vulcan Arcana Combine!”
Zhang Lun continued. “As far as I know, the general manager of Pangu Arcana Combine in Chang’an Base City is from the Ai family!”
“So guys, do you think the Ai family should be considered the number one family in Chang’an Base City?”
“Of course!”
“The general manager of the Pangu Arcana Combine branch in Chang’an Base City!”
“Wow! I never thought the Ai family to be so terrifying!”
