Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2735: Chapter 5: Yin Lingzhu: It’s Not Easy for Bao Sheng to Have Survived This Long

...

Tianrui Holy City.

[Hidden Immortal Lake].

Guanhu Tiange.

This is the top restaurant in the Sacred City, directly located on the Rank Six Water Spirit Veins of the Hidden Immortal Lake.

Today they were quite lucky, as soon after they sat down, spiritual fog wafted up, and a lingering spirit rain ”swooshed” down.

At this moment.

In the open-air seating at the golden position, Wang Baosheng and Yin Lingzhu sat facing each other, dining and chatting together.

The rain fell around them, presenting a beautiful scene, with even the air filled with an indescribable ambiguity.

”Brother Yu An,” Wang Baosheng said happily, raising his glass, ”Hearing you speak is better than reading ten years of books. Your ideas on how to curb governmental corruption are truly ingenious, enlightening me greatly. I toast to you.”

”Brother Bao Sheng’s phrase ’absolute power leads to absolute corruption’ was truly remarkable. I will ponder over your words carefully when I return,” Yin Lingzhu was pleasantly surprised to find someone who could discuss such topics with her.

She was currently disguised as a man. Seeing that Wang Baosheng hadn’t recognized her, she simply used her brother Ying Yu’an’s name.

However, although she and Wang Baosheng resonated well, she couldn’t shake the odd atmosphere of this dining location, leaving her feeling inexplicably uneasy.

”Those were the words of my Old Ancestor,” Wang Baosheng said awkwardly, ”I was merely borrowing them.”

”Brother Bao Sheng’s family has deep academic roots and a broad range of knowledge, which greatly impresses me,” Yin Lingzhu praised instead of feeling disappointed, ”And your previous proposal on government office entertainment supervision was also brilliant. I would like to learn more from you.”

They had already exchanged basic information like names and ages earlier. Yin Lingzhu also knew Wang Baosheng was a clan brother of Wang Baoguang, but their personalities were entirely different.

One was an absolute rogue whom she felt like beating up every day, while the other was knowledgeable, quick-witted, and aligned perfectly with her views.

Speaking of this matter, Wang Baosheng couldn’t help but think of that troublesome clan brother, apologizing again: ”Brother Yu An, regarding the Truth magazine issue, I apologize to you on behalf of my clan brother Wang Baoguang. As for entertainment supervision, I will compile a detailed proposal for you, filled with my practical experiences and explorations.”

In the field of entertainment supervision, when Wang Baosheng says he’s second, no one dares to claim first, as it’s one of his areas of expertise.

Other than to the Old Ancestor, this was his first time meeting someone as attentive to this field as he was, giving him a sense of finding a kindred spirit.

”Thank you, Brother Bao Sheng.”

Yin Lingzhu was also straightforward and agreed directly without hesitation.

She naturally knew how valuable his experience was, planning to scour the library of the Dao Palace for any cultivation experiences of their predecessors to transcribe and give to Wang Baosheng in return.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered something, glanced around, and her gaze turned somewhat peculiar: ”I just remembered, isn’t this open-air seating the Rain Appreciation Platform mentioned by your blind date in the magazine?”

She still remembered that blind date’s complaints, saying that while dining on the beautiful Rain Appreciation Platform, in what should have been a lovely atmosphere, her peculiar date handed her a few test sheets, leaving her wondering how to break the situation.

Yin Lingzhu’s eyelids twitched.

Brother Bao Sheng really is a bit...

Dining here with a blind date is one thing, but inviting me here to eat is a bit strange, isn’t it?

You’d think, being disguised as a man, he’d notice something odd?

”Yes, this is the Rain Appreciation Platform.” Wang Baosheng was completely at ease, ”I’ve been set up on dates here a few times, and I thought the environment was quite nice, so when I planned to invite Brother Yu An for a meal, this place immediately came to mind as it suits Brother Yu An’s temperament.”

Yin Lingzhu’s eyebrows twitched, feeling an urge to be violent.

What do you mean it suits ”Brother Yu An’s” temperament? Are you subtly ”complimenting” me for being effeminate?

Luckily, I’m not really a man, otherwise... Ha—no wonder Brother Bao Sheng failed all those dates in such a short time.

She gave Wang Baosheng a knowing look, teasing him: ”You didn’t prepare two test sheets for me to do, did you?”

Wang Baosheng looked at her oddly: ”Brother Yu An, don’t joke. We are brothers of like temperament, not blind dating...”

Yin Lingzhu’s mouth twitched, feeling a bit amused.

So, on a date with you, one is destined to do test sheets, huh?

”Brother Bao Sheng, you’re nearly seven hundred years old, right? Have you never been in love?” Yin Lingzhu began to be curious.

”Dating is too troublesome, and women are even more troublesome. Focusing on career is much better.” Wang Baosheng sighed unhappily, unable to resist complaining to Yin Lingzhu, ”If it weren’t for having to continue the direct line of the family, I wouldn’t date at all. As for the IQ tests, those are to ensure our Wang family’s direct line... our clan school calls it... an intelligence test, which roughly measures a person’s IQ to determine if they’re smart.”

”There’s such a test?” Yin Lingzhu was even more curious, ”Could you let me try?”

”I don’t think so...” Wang Baosheng was a bit resistant, ”The tests are somewhat difficult.”

”Is it that you don’t believe in my intelligence?” Yin Lingzhu was slightly displeased.
