CH 272

Even with Ma Long's looks and temperament, he was instantly overshadowed by Hillian. At this moment, the only thing Ma Long was grateful for was that Sheng Xia was not present.

This guy is too dangerous. Every move and gesture exudes a charm. As an experienced person, Ma Long was well aware of the impact such a person could have on students. Zhou Naiyi and Tan Ziyuan were also stunned. To be honest, any girl would feel a sense of affection after seeing such a guy, it's very comforting.

Hillian stood up with a faint smile, as gentle as a spring breeze. "I'm Li Hao's teammate. I'm sorry for taking up your captain's time, but we're done here. We'll meet again soon."

Hillian glanced at Zuo Xiaotang, and the chubby guy quickly looked away. It was embarrassing for Zuo Xiaotang to see someone so handsome and charismatic. In an instant, Hillian took control of the room, leaving everyone speechless.

The noise at the door resounded once again as a man and a woman rushed in. Seeing Ma Long and the others from a distance, they hurried over, and Mar didn't stop them because they were together.

"Ha, we've got the place to ourselves. Who are these country bumpkins? They're so ridiculous," Zuo Xiaotang casually shook his head and entered with Lu Ying.

Last time, Zuo Xiaotang was somewhat unsatisfied, and Lu Ying also had some lingering feelings. She really wanted to show off, but it didn't go as planned. Zuo Xiaotang had other ideas this time. They came to the school together, showing off their floating supercar, and when they saw Ma Long and the others, they followed. Since Ma Long and the others had entered, they had no reason not to. Besides, it was a private venue, so why not?

When Lu Ying saw Hillian for the first time, she was completely stunned. Was there really such a handsome guy in the world? His gaze carried a deadly magnetism, and Lu Ying suddenly felt weak and just wanted to rub against him in his arms.

Hillian's eyes narrowed slightly. "Li Hao, it should be ready by next week."

Li Hao nodded.

Lu Ying found it hard to take her eyes off Hillian, and Zuo Xiaotang's face changed drastically, immediately straightening up.

As Hillian passed by, Zuo Xiaotang stepped forward, his voice slightly excited. "Respected..."

Mar stopped him, but Zuo Xiaotang quickly reached out, wanting to say something. Hillian glanced at him. "Make him disappear."

Mar bowed and nodded.

Hillian left, and Mar glanced at the other person, a flash of light passing through his pupils as he thoroughly scanned Zuo Xiaotang. The screen opened, displaying all of Zuo Xiaotang's information. After a few seconds of blinking, Mar looked at Li Hao, bowed, and then closed the door.

The room fell silent.

Zuo Xiaotang felt a bit regretful. If he could get close to this big shot, he would be set for life. Suddenly, a fawning smile appeared on his face. "Ying Ying, this is your classmate. He's really extraordinary. How do you know such a distinguished person? Can you introduce me?"

The eyes of a businessperson are sharp. Isn't this the legendary Hillian Morpheus, the walking god of wealth? Maybe I can make some connections. Originally, I was helping Lu Ying show off, but now my goal has changed.

Lu Ying hadn't reacted yet, and Zuo Xiaotang wanted to say something, but the Sky Message rang. Zuo Xiaotang's face turned grim as he hung up, but the call persisted, and he had no choice but to answer it.

"Mr. Zuo, your Liantang International Freight Company has entered bankruptcy liquidation. As a director, please repay the company's debt of 9.6 billion within a month, or you will bear the corresponding legal consequences. Thank you. DK Commercial Bank of the Solar System."

Lu Ying laughed. "Where did this scam call come from? Are they crazy?"

At this moment, Zuo Xiaotang's face turned pale, and his body trembled violently, then he sat down on the ground.

Lu Ying was also stunned and quickly searched the Sky Message. She wasn't stupid and had investigated Zuo Xiaotang. He was a genuine second-generation rich kid, and the stock of the solar system development sector of Liantang International Freight Company had already been suspended.

"What's going on?" Lu Ying still didn't understand. How could one sentence bankrupt someone? Who is this lunatic?

"This guy has a cleanliness obsession," Li Hao said.

"Cleanliness obsession? Ma Long was stunned. "Are you saying that just by looking at him, this guy can make someone go bankrupt in minutes? Hao, don't joke around. Is he very rich?"

"Teacher Ma, you occasionally have spiritual insights. I don't know how much money this person has, but he knows Hillian Morpheus. He's the sole heir of the Morpheus family, one of the largest families in human development." Zhou Naiyi said. She recognized him because Hillian was the first person in the NUP mid-season competition, an existence that couldn't be ignored.

"Hillian? Morpheus?" Ma Long and the others felt familiar. "The Hillian from the Apocalypse? The Hillian who defeated Maxis and Van Levitt in the mid-season competition? The one who wrote the interpretation of dreams?"

Everyone looked at Li Hao. Wasn't this person Li Hao's archenemy?Li Hao shrugged helplessly, "Back then, I was just turned into a vegetable, not dead."

On the way to the space station, Hillian was lost in thought, while Marle remained motionless.

"How do you feel?" Hillian suddenly asked.

"The strength and frequency of the soul are very ordinary, but the disguise ability is very strong, and the cultivation is very high," Marle said. "In terms of character, it seems to be very greedy for small advantages."

Hillian smiled, "That's just an excuse to draw a line with me casually, telling me to mind my own business."

It's just a persona used for disguise. At their level, who would care about these things? Besides, he is Hillian Morpheus, and to him, 20 million is no different from 2 yuan. Li Hao is just stating his position, and it probably carries some other meaning, heh.

There was a commotion at Tianjing Mecha Academy for a while, and everyone left. Unfortunately, Lu Ying's boyfriend made a fool of himself, begging and groveling with snot and tears, first to Lu Ying and then to others. It was so disgusting that Lu Ying was repulsed, and he was eventually escorted out by security.

In the training ground at this time, the air was filled with the fragrance of tea, and everyone had a cup. The simplest tools and simple brewing methods still couldn't stop the aroma of the tea.

"Wow, what is this? How come I feel so clear-headed after just one sip?" Ma Long exclaimed. "Is this all there is? And they even gave us something extra. How stingy. Where did it come from?"

"Hillian, that stingy guy gave it to me. He said he would split it with me, but it turned out to be just this much. We finished it in one go. He's so stingy, even though he's rich," Li Hao said, not quite understanding why he found it so delicious. The aroma was indeed refreshing and delightful. Suddenly, everyone looked at Wu Zang. The usually rigid and expressionless Wu Zang was now enjoying the tea, savoring it sip by sip. He even showed a rich expression on his usually stiff face. It wasn't until a while later that Wu Zang looked up and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Wu Zang, are you trying to ascend? You can even feel the sensation of love from drinking tea. You're amazing," Teacher Ma laughed.

"A few years ago, at an interstellar auction hosted by the Franco International, there was a top-level auction within the solar system. It was rumored that a small packet of precious thousand-year-old Dahongpao from the Tianxin Temple on Earth was leaked. It was said that the mother tree was barely kept alive through the use of biotechnology, and there was only one tree left. My grandfather wanted to buy it, but it was too expensive," Wu Zang said. Then he took another small sip and savored it. "This tea was auctioned together with a piece of art. It was snapped up at a sky-high price by the mysterious VVP. It seems that everyone was there for the tea. We must have drunk several billion worth of it by now."

The Wu family also attached great importance to the tea ceremony, and Wu Zang had been influenced by it since he was young. Everyone was dumbfounded, and Ma Long picked up the empty packaging and exclaimed, "It's gone? It's gone?"

"Wu Zang, you should have told us earlier!" Teacher Ma felt like he had missed something.

"I'm not entirely sure, but the taste should be unmistakable. Besides, Li Hao doesn't care about material things," Wu Zang said with some admiration, thinking that Li Hao was indeed the kind of person his grandfather often talked about, someone who transcended material desires.

"Since it's here, we might as well drink it. It's a waste not to," Li Hao awkwardly laughed, but inside, he was... no, it was already a river of blood. This guy didn't make it clear when he gave it to us. If I had known, I would have asked for more.

"Li Hao, shouldn't you and Hillian be enemies? Why do you look like old friends?" Tan Ziyuan asked curiously.

"We are enemies," Li Hao smiled. "Always have been. He likes to use this kind of sugar-coated bullet on his enemies."

Of course, it's hard to say how far the two of them will go in the future.

Everyone was a bit confused, but the tea was just too good, and everyone quietly savored this rare treasure.

However, if Hillian knew that they had brewed such a large pot, he would probably spit blood. It's not about the money; it's just that such precious things shouldn't be wasted. The piece of art they bought back then was already gathering dust in a corner, all for the sake of this tea.

Everyone deliberately avoided mentioning Lu Ying. She was a classic case of psychological distortion, trying to prove that she was better than others by showing off.

Do people who truly live well need to do that?

With her tantrum, even Zuo Xiaotang had let go. It wasn't about defaming anyone, but she could also move on.

Tan Ziyuan looked at Li Hao, who was texting, he was there, but also seemed not to be there, as if living in two different worlds. She sighed softly. Lu Ying's arrival wasn't because of Zuo Xiaotang.

Boop, boop.

Li Hao answered the Sky Message with a smile on his face.

"What do you mean?" the voice on the other end was a bit cold.

Li Hao was a little confused. "Nothing, I just made some extra money, and I thought it wouldn't hurt to borrow a little more."

"Hmph, who said you could pay it back? Are you not considering me a friend anymore?!""Impossible, there's absolutely no need for that. I don't even know how to thank you," Li Hao's list of people, Tita is definitely a good person, no doubt about it, a really good person!

"Hmph, who asked you to thank me!"

Bang—beep beep beep beep

Li Hao was dumbfounded, what's going on? Is it because he hasn't paid the interest?

Hilian's speed of settling accounts was very fast. Li Hao quickly repaid the money to Tita, after all, he still felt a little guilty. However, the effect was not very good. After all, talking about interest between friends was too hurtful.

Debt-free and carefree. Perfect.
