I'm really not the god of time.

Chapter 34: Trading with Rich Women and High School Girls in Turn

The group went to the same French restaurant as before.

The quality of the food this time was much higher than the last time.

The lady waiting in the private room was also a still-attractive woman.

She was about the same age as Qin Yu, but looked a bit more haggard.

She wore niche luxury brands and expensive jewelry.

She was a little nervous before they met.

But when they realized that Zhang Lingyun was just a high school student, and that he was accompanied by the pure and beautiful Xia Youran, their guard and tension instantly disappeared.

The four people sat around the dining table, eating and chatting casually.

The initial awkwardness and restraint gradually faded away.

After getting to the point, the other party was very sincere and hoped that Zhang Lingyun could offer some guidance.

Zhang Lingyun immediately agreed, but asked Qin Yu to wait outside first.

Qin Yu had no doubts.

Knowledge related to magic is inherently secretive.

It's perfectly normal not to want others to know.

After only three people remained in the private room, Zhang Lingyun used casual conversation as a cover to finalize the details of the transaction with the other party.

He still sells the first level of the [Meditation Method] in exchange for the other party's years of accumulated cultivation experience.

Unfortunately, this lady had only a mediocre foundation and only had twenty years of cultivation time.

However, even considering the additional 500,000 yuan paid by the other party, Zhang Lingyun still came out on top in this deal.

After the transaction was completed, Zhang Lingyun did not miss anything and conveniently transferred the memory of the ten-minute conversation from the other party's mind.

The aunt across from me only slightly lost her focus, and it felt as if time had inexplicably jumped forward a bit.

Immediately afterwards, her mind suddenly trembled violently, and she felt that she had grasped the first level of the [Meditation Method], and the magic power in her body instantly became active.

She, who had been reserved just moments before, was suddenly overjoyed.

Overwhelmed with emotion, she cupped Zhang Lingyun's face, wanting to kiss him fiercely.

Xia Youran subconsciously stood up and stood between the two.

***

Everyone was satisfied after the transaction was completed.

The two aunties drove Zhang Lingyun and Xia Youran back to their residential compound with heartfelt gratitude.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Lingyun looked up at the night sky.

A hazy crescent moon hangs in the night sky.

The streetlights cast a warm glow, and moths hovered around them incessantly.

Then he noticed a red-eyed crow perched on a treetop, tilting its head and sizing him up.

Zhang Lingyun was slightly taken aback, and his memory flashed back instantly.

He immediately recalled the red-eyed raven that sold the "angel's medicine" when he met the musician.

He immediately activated [Lightning Claw], gathering lightning to grab at the treetops.

The crow flapped its wings and soared into the sky, but was struck by a powerful electric current, paralyzed, and plummeted to the ground.

Zhang Lingyun then summoned [Mage's Hand], intending to capture the crow alive.

Unexpectedly, the crow's eyes flashed red, and it self-destructed in mid-air.

A flurry of black feathers, like sharp steel needles, shot out in all directions.

Zhang Lingyun instinctively turned around and hugged Xia Youran in his arms, while simultaneously activating his [Energy Shield].

A series of crisp, tinkling sounds rang out behind me as the iron-hard feathers were deflected by the shield.

When the sound subsided, Zhang Lingyun looked around and found that there was no trace left.

He sighed softly.

In this world, crises are everywhere, and they are virtually impossible to guard against.

While one can make substantial profits through trading, it also makes one too easy to be targeted.

Fortunately, the crow could only monitor the outdoors and did not witness the entire transaction; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

It seems that trading will not be possible for the time being.

We must come up with a safer solution, otherwise we'll get into trouble sooner or later.

***

After returning home, Zhang Lingyun finally felt completely relieved.

This time, Xia Youran didn't just throw her coat away carelessly; instead, she hung it neatly on a hanger.

After changing into a loose-fitting tank top, she obediently sat down next to Zhang Lingyun and took the initiative to massage his legs and shoulders, as docile as a landlord's little maid.

Zhang Lingyun felt uneasy, unable to understand what this little devil was up to.

Xia Youran gently blew air:

"Is it comfortable?"

"Mmm!" Zhang Lingyun closed her eyes comfortably.

Xia Youran suddenly smiled, finally revealing her true intentions:

"Then trade me the third level of the [Meditation Technique]!"

Zhang Lingyun opened her eyes:

"I haven't even reached the fourth level myself yet."

Xia Youran said:

"You just earned 500,000, enough to buy the [Fourth Tier] support potion tomorrow, so give me the [Third Tier] one first!"

Zhang Lingyun reached out and gently stroked the bridge of her upturned nose, then asked with a smile:

"So impatient? Couldn't you hold back all night?"

Xia Youran slapped his hand away, blushing as she retorted:

"You couldn't hold back either at school, could you? You even dragged me into the little storage room, which was full of the smell of sweat."

Zhang Lingyun thought about it for a moment.

He could understand Xia Youran's feelings.

For a "weak witch", the third level of "meditation" was originally a threshold that would be difficult to reach in a lifetime.

Now, this power is like a carrot, hanging over her head.

If she doesn't get to eat tonight, she probably won't be able to sleep all night.

Moreover, Xia Youran has always been very obedient and cooperated very well in the sports storage room.

If she hadn't been willing to help, I really don't know how I would have been able to digest the [Energy Shield] potion smoothly.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lingyun nodded:

"Can!"

"Very good!"

Xia Youran was overjoyed.

She suddenly threw herself into his arms and rubbed against his chest.

Zhang Lingyun also felt a sense of relief.

He gently embraced her, his hands slowly sliding down her smooth back to her buttocks.

Xia Youran suddenly came to her senses and pushed him down onto the sofa.

"Don't touch me like that!"

Zhang Lingyun was somewhat helpless:

"You were the one who carried it first."

Xia Youran pouted angrily:

"How can that be the same?"

Zhang Lingyun helplessly raised his hand:

"The dragon has already been defeated, and you've already called him 'Dad,' are you regretting it now?"

Xia Youran punched him:

"What nonsense are you talking about? I never regret what I do. It's just that I'm a little unaccustomed to it! I've never done this with a guy before."

"Okay, okay, I'll take my time this time."

……

The two of them stayed up until late at night.

Zhang Lingyun completed the transaction first, giving the third level of the Meditation Method to Xia Youran.

He then used the simulation ability of the [Awakening Card] to restore his [Meditation Method] to the third level.

The next morning.

Xia Youran, sporting prominent dark circles under her eyes, was too excited to sleep all night.

But she still kept her promise and got up early to make breakfast for Zhang Lingyun.

After Zhang Lingyun criticized her cooking skills last time, she has been practicing diligently in private.

Unfortunately, the witch's taste preferences seem to be too different from those of ordinary people, and the food she makes is still very strange.

On this day, the two went their separate ways.

Zhang Lingyun went to Green Island University to buy the auxiliary magic potion for the fourth level of the [Meditation Technique].

Xia Youran also went to her school and was greeted with a mock test.

Xia Youran used to hate these kinds of tests the most.

Every time an exam was approaching, she would try every possible way to skip class.

Because she is a "weak witch", her "magic power" is pitifully low, and she cannot break through the "meditation method".

Not to mention compared to other witches, even ordinary people with excellent talent are stronger than her.

However, things are different now!

The results of this assessment surprised all the teachers and students present.

Her magic power has actually reached...
