The next day.
Investigation Base of Da Peng City.
Gu Wutong smiled at Pei Jinye, "The rewards for the mission have been approved, and I didn't keep anything for myself. That's all there is. I knew you wouldn't be interested, so I've added something extra—two Blood-red Carps per person."
"That's a generous offer, haha," Pei Jinye chuckled lightly.
The mission's cash bonus from Gu Wutong was only three thousand, and yet he was willing to give away six Blood-red Carps, each of which was worth over ten thousand.
"It's only right," Gu Wutong shook his head, "Speaking of which, I really have to thank you for last night."
"Enough, no need for thank yous," Pei Jinye waved his hand, "Say too much and it becomes mawkish. If there's nothing else, go back to your training."
"Haha, will do," Gu Wutong laughed it off, "And you're absolutely right! If I weren't so weak, I wouldn't have been bullied like that. I've decided! I must reach Second Rank this year!"
