Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 56 - 54: Exposed Movements

Lu Lin smiled bashfully, putting away his things and going to open the door for Wang Juan.

"Lu Lin, you cheeky guy, you just got back and already cracked my wall."

"Don’t block the door, let me in and see if you’ve become an Awakener, your destructive power has increased so much."

"Wait a minute."

Seeing the woman at the entrance about to barge into his home without a care, Lu Lin used his body to block the door.

"Are you... Wang Juan?"

The voice indeed belonged to Wang Juan, but the woman in front of him looked nothing like her.

The Wang Juan in Lu Lin’s memory was round-shaped.

But the woman in front of him was definitely slim.

She wore a short-sleeved pajama set with a black floral pattern, her hair casually tied in a bun at the back of her head.

Is this really the same chubby girl from six years ago?

"Lu Lin, you don’t even recognize your own girl anymore?"

Wang Juan spoke, seemingly realizing her tone was off, and quickly switched to a coy demeanor.

"Lu Lin, aren’t you going to invite your old classmate in for a sit?"

As Wang Juan spoke, she rubbed her hands on the hem of her short-sleeved pajama, making Lu Lin’s teeth itch.

"Alright, alright, come in then."

Lu Lin stepped aside, and Wang Juan walked in as if it were her place, plopping down on Lu Lin’s small sofa. Just as she was about to share her thoughts, she realized she needed to maintain her persona and quickly stood up, saying, "Lu Lin, is it okay if I sit here?"

"Alright, alright, stop pretending in front of me."

"I’ll go to Lao Jin’s construction store later to get some cement and patch it up for you."

"In the evening, when the Da Xiang car comes back, let’s eat out."

"Whoa, Lu handsome, haven’t seen you in a few days, and you’ve become so extravagant?"

"Tell me, how did you awaken?"

"Enough about me," Lu Lin pointed at Wang Juan, "You tell me, how did you end up like this."

"Like this? What’s wrong with this."

"I haven’t told you, since junior high graduation I was determined to lose weight, so I don’t have to endure the scornful looks from those flashy girls anymore, speaking of..."

Standing up and sitting next to Lu Lin, Wang Juan hooked a finger under Lu Lin’s chin, asking coquettishly, "Little Lu, how about developing a little more than friendship with your girl here?"

"You wish," Lu Lin pushed Wang Juan aside, "We’re too close, I just can’t."

"As soon as the lights go out at night, I’ll remember that snot-eating little chubby girl from back then, wouldn’t that gross me out to death!"

"Lu Lin, you’re doomed!"

"You’re doomed!"

In a fit of rage, Wang Juan rushed at Lu Lin, grabbing his hair, and they started tussling.

After a while.

The storm passed... oh no, the fight stopped.

Lu Lin’s face was flushed, seeming even shyer than Wang Juan.

Only then could the two sit down properly for a chat.

Wang Juan said during junior high she was constantly looked down upon, and whenever she tried to fight back, other girls would gang up on her.

In the end, after junior high graduation, she made up her mind, starved herself for two months, and finally successfully lost weight.

After that, she went to a vocational school to study western-style baking, and now she’s the assistant store manager at the Green City large-scale baking chain enterprise "Honey Fragrance Pastries."

Not to mention daily sales, all the rich second-generation buying cakes and pastries are from wealthy families in Green City.

"So you’re now the flower of Green City."

"Congratulations, congratulations."

"Get lost—"

Wang Juan swore softly, "I never expected it either, those rich kids come to the store every day to harass me. Otherwise, why do you think I got promoted to assistant store manager in just one year?"

"Isn’t it the company folks saying I have strong sales abilities, that being just a regular decorator is a waste of talent."

"Damn it, I learned decorating in vocational school for three years, didn’t expect to have to rely on my looks for promotions."

As she was speaking, Wang Juan’s phone rang, "Hang on, I’ll take this call."

"Hello, Wang Shao, oh, sorry, I’m not at the store right now."

"Alright, alright, your company wants to host an event, got it, no problem."

"Hold on a moment, I’m on my way over."

After hanging up, Wang Juan told Lu Lin she had to go home. Shortly after, she came out wearing a forest-themed dress, a straw sunhat, and glittery high-heeled sandals.

"Lu Lin, give me a lift to the store."

"Nope."

Lu Lin, with an expression as though he’d seen through her trickery, said, "Don’t try to use me as a shield, that’s outdated, sis!"

"Crazy, do I need a shield?"

"Come downstairs and I’ll show you my new car."

Wang Juan finished, hummed, and went downstairs without minding Lu Lin.

"A new car?"

Lu Lin hadn’t expected that his childhood pals would have bought cars. Wang Juan might really be planning to marry into a wealthy family.

Curious, Lu Lin put on his shoes and trotted downstairs.

He saw Wang Juan standing next to a young man with a high-end luxury magnetic levitation sports car.

Hearing Lu Lin’s footsteps behind her, a smile played on Wang Juan’s lips.

Though it’s an old trick, it works.

She turned around and linked her arm through Lu Lin’s, "Honey, didn’t I say you didn’t have to see me off? Why’d you come down? Didn’t... I serve you well enough at home?"

Lu Lin was stunned.

Wang Shao’s expression turned cold.

"Store Manager Wang, this gentleman is...?"

"Wang Shao, didn’t I tell you, I have a boyfriend."

"Let me introduce you, this is Lu Lin, a top student from Blue Star Gold Sword High School, Earth Talent, Double Star Skill genius."

"Honey, this is Wang Shao, just a regular customer at the store, don’t misunderstand."

"Ahem."

Lu Lin was filled with awkwardness, silently cursing his own strong curiosity.

Great, now I’m used as Wang Juan’s shield again.

No matter how much you guard against thieves at night, you can’t guard against family burglars.

"Earth Talent Awakener?"

Wang Shao glanced at Lu Lin, nodded without saying anything, turned around, and got into his luxury supercar, speeding off out of Lishui Bay Community.

"Wang Juan—"

"Don’t be so petty, come on Lu Lin, let me show you the new car I bought." Wang Juan pointed at a pink Little Sheep electric scooter charging nearby.

"Look, I bought this last month, it cost RMB 3000, can run 120 kilometers on a full charge, with a top speed of 35 km/h... alright, I’m off." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Wang Juan spoke quickly, giving Lu Lin no time to react.

She pulled the charger, turned the key, and the Little Sheep electric scooter zipped past Lu Lin, leaving a cool breeze.

"Wang Juan, I..."

Lu Lin had just opened his mouth when he saw Wang Juan’s grandma walking back from afar, so he didn’t dare continue, turning to head back home.

Meanwhile, Wang Shao drove away from Lishui Bay Community feeling dissatisfied.

He had just recently heard about this Wang Juan from a friend, and was amazed at first sight.

He always favored this kind of genuinely good girl, clean, confident, unpretentious, completely different from the girls in the scene.

So, he had kept Wang Juan in mind, and after a few interactions, Wang Shao had decided to target Wang Juan as the next stage in his plans.

Unexpectedly, at this moment a Blue Star returning genius suddenly appeared, what bad luck.

Wait...

Wang Shao sharply hit the brake key, bringing the fast-moving supercar to a quick stop.

Blue Star returnee?

Earth Talent?

Double Star Skill genius?

And most importantly, he’s called Lu Lin. Could he be the same "Lu Lin" his dad, the CEO of Green City Jin Hao Group, Wang Lihe, had been mentioning recently?

Wang Shao’s heart stirred, and he directly called his dad, Wang Lihe, the CEO of Green City Jin Hao Group.

"Dad, are you looking for someone named Lu Lin?"
