There are at least hundreds of martial arts schools on Silver Moon Island.
The names of martial arts schools sound good, but in fact most of them belong to violent gangs.
It is not easy for immigrants to establish a foothold on Silver Moon Island.
Violent societies are especially likely to cause discord and discord.
Jianghu cannot just rely on fighting and killing, but also pay attention to human relations and sophistication.
Allen knew that he was too young and lacked prestige.
Take advantage of the opening of the martial arts gym to invite guests and friends, show off your connections, and deter those with evil intentions.
Mother and daughter Sola and An Qi invited many family members.
When the Allen family first established themselves on Silver Moon Island, they received a lot of care from the Keyes family.
Although the portion served by Mistress Case was not large enough, she was still placed at the VIP table.
The really important guests all come from Silver Moon Monastery.
The most important one among them is amazing...
Height, less than 1.4 meters!
The weight is seventy kilograms!
This heavyweight guest is Allen's master.
The first person in the cat courtyard is Master Shiva, the "White Tiger Martial Lord".
Master Shiva was arrogant and unsociable by nature, and rarely participated in social interactions. He couldn't stand Alan's insistence, so he made an exception and agreed to attend the banquet.
However, she also has a condition.
Come to the banquet as a human and keep a low profile.
"I'm only here to drink, and I won't reveal my identity to save trouble."
"There is no need to introduce your relatives, friends and guests to me."
"If anyone asks, just say, I am yours..."
Master Shiva was still pondering, and Allen first thought of an excuse for her.
"Your human form looks like an eight or nine-year-old girl."
"Even if I say that you are my master, outsiders won't believe it."
"Why don't you make a mistake and declare that you are my goddaughter, so that no one will be suspicious? What do you think?"
"...I think you are itchy!" Loli Wu Zun angrily scolded the unscrupulous disciple: "I am your teacher, and you actually want to be my father?!"
"Teacher, this is just a temporary measure, don't take it seriously!" Allen quickly comforted the White Tiger Martial Lord to avoid a severe beating.
In a blink of an eye, the day of the banquet arrived, and Master Shiva showed up as promised.
People are here, but their minds are not very clear.
On the airship, she had already started drinking.
After getting off the airship, the silver-haired loli was drunk and swaying while walking.
Renee had to carry her into the banquet hall.
Hu Niu Renee has a tall frame and broad hip bones.
Her sexy and fire-breathing figure is comparable to the so-called "Bomb Girl" in the fashion pictorials of Ellen's previous life.
She is obviously a nineteen-year-old girl, but against the backdrop of the petite Shiva, she looks like a beautiful young woman carrying her daughter on her back.
If he hadn't recognized them both, Allen might have mistaken them for a mother and daughter!
"Teacher Shiva loves Junior Sister Renee very much."
Maria broke the news to Allen in a low voice.
"I thought the teacher appreciated Renee's simplicity and kindness."
"Later I found out that Renee was actually chosen as a hardworking, diligent and obedient person, so she was suitable to be her nanny!"
In addition to the three sworn brothers and sworn sisters, two senior brothers, Baker and Hogg, whom Allen met while collecting medicine, also came to support him.
While chatting, Baker and Hogg also revealed some news.
Silver Moon Monastery is about to open the secret realm of time. Disciples from the three courtyards, regardless of the inner or outer sects, as long as their contribution reaches the standard, can enter the secret realm and practice for two years.
The flow rate of time in Silver Moon Secret Realm is the same as that in the secret realm of South Island Warlock Academy, four times the time rate.
Two years in the secret realm is only equivalent to half a year in the outside world.
After attending the banquet, Baker and Hogg planned to cross the ocean, sneak into Red Moon Island, and assassinate an elder of the Beast Worship Cult.
If the task can be successfully completed, the rewarded teacher's contribution will be enough to obtain a place to enter the secret realm for practice.
"Junior Brother Allen, do you have enough points?" Hogg asked.
"There's still a lot left to be desired," Allen said truthfully.
Most of the teacher's contribution obtained by turning in the tofu formula before was used to exchange for various awakening agent formulas, and the rest was not enough to redeem the secret realm cultivation quota.
"Then you have to hurry up!" Baker took over the words, "Would you like to form a team with us and go to Red Moon Island to perform the mission together?"
Allen shook his head and declined.
The martial arts gym had just opened, and he had a lot of things to do and couldn't spare any time to accompany the two of them on missions.
…
Bang!
When the atmosphere of the banquet was getting lively, the door was suddenly kicked open.
Allen, who was toasting, calmly turned around and looked at the door.
When his eyes caught sight of the uninvited guest breaking through the door, he couldn't help but be startled.
"Hehehe... The person who was supposed to come didn't come. Is the owner surprised?"
A red-haired young man wearing a black robe walked in with a sneer.
The robe is embroidered with a red moon pattern, and the bat holy symbol hangs on the chest.
"My name is Andrew, from Red Moon Island."
Under the watchful gaze of all the guests, the red-haired young man began to introduce himself.
"Mr. Andrew, I don't think I invited you to the banquet." Allen said coldly.
"It's true that the owner didn't invite me, but that's not important."
Andrew is smiling but not smiling.
"My lord Charon, sent down the divine inspiration to guide me here. In addition to congratulating the owner of the museum, I also have a small thing to do."
"I have a useless brother named Charles who disappeared in your town some time ago."
"It is said that the owner of the museum is the most powerful person in the town, so he must be very well-informed."
"Can the owner tell me the whereabouts of Charles?"
When she heard the name Charles, Maria's face darkened and she tried to get up to take over the conversation.
Allen quickly winked at her, indicating that it was all up to him.
Maria hesitated for a moment, and finally sat back silently.
Andrew noticed the eye contact between the two, sneered, and returned his gaze to Allen.
"I have specially prepared a congratulatory gift for today's grand event. I believe it will give the owner a surprise."
As he spoke, he took out a beautifully wrapped gift box from his storage bag and placed it on the table with a smile.
When you open the lid of the box, the pungent smell of blood immediately comes out!
In the box, there was a bloody head.
The deceased's face was green and he had a goat's horn beard.
His eyes were wide open, fear remaining in his pupils.
Everyone around him recognized him, including Allen.
The deceased was none other than pirate captain Crabbe!
Crabbe, a late third-level crab-man warlock, has a group of fierce pirates under his command.
Neither personal strength nor the power under control should be underestimated.
At the beginning, Allen also borrowed the power of Silver Moon Monastery to finally surrender Crabbe.
The pirate captain actually had his head cut off!
How strong does this Andrew have to be?
In the blood-filled hall, guests whispered.
"Haha...I'm sorry, I scared everyone."
Andrew, who came to provoke me, was still smiling and personable.
"You may be wondering, why should I send such a disgraceful gift?"
"Frankly speaking, I am helping the owner solve the problem!"
There was a lot of noise in the hall, and people had doubts in their eyes.
Andrew looked around at the crowd and whetted his appetite before revealing the answer.
"I heard that someone secretly bribed Crabbe and asked him to pretend to come to the gym."
"According to the script, after provoking Crabbe, he challenged the owner of the hotel in front of all the distinguished guests."
"Our Lord, the owner of the museum, tolerated and tolerated again and again, and finally couldn't help but go out and teach this guy who doesn't know how to appreciate others."
"After a fierce fight, the owner of the gym defeated Crabbe beautifully."
"Crabbe was convinced. In front of everyone, he repented for his ignorance and asked the owner to forgive him."
"The magnanimous owner, of course, will forgive him."
"After all, that's how the script is written!"
"Through this pre-rehearsed kick-off show, the gym owner established his authority in public and made a wonderful advertisement for the martial arts gym."
"Those ignorant idiots who don't know the inside story have witnessed with their own eyes the strength of the gym owner and the foundation of the martial arts gym, why shouldn't they praise them?"
Andrew smiled faintly, with a hint of sarcasm in his words.
"I killed the actors who kicked off the gym in advance. Does the gym owner like this gift?"
"Ouch! Look at your face. Could it be that I was doing my best to help you out of my kindness?"
"Master, maybe I misunderstood your script?"
"Is there anything I said that was wrong or lied? Can the owner point it out to me in person?"
"I'll change it, isn't it okay?"
Allen said nothing.
Silence equals acquiescence.
He admitted that he and Crabbe had indeed planned a "kick-off" scene in advance.
I plan to use this eye-catching performance to make the newly opened martial arts gym famous.
This approach is a good idea from a business perspective.
But once it is exposed in public, it will be a bit embarrassing!
Allen could deny it flat out.
However, since Andrew has come to provoke and expose the matter, he may have a back-up plan.
If he denies it here, if Andrew comes forward with irrefutable evidence, it will be confirmed that he lied in public and his reputation will be ruined.
Allen was silent, thinking about how to break through the dilemma.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall became increasingly tense.
Everyone in Silver Moon Monastery was still calm.
After all, Maria and the other three chief disciples are present, and if the sky falls, they will hold it up.
As for the White Tiger Warrior in lolita form, only Allen, Renee and Maria knew her identity, and others only regarded her as a child brought by her parents to eat.
Not everyone can stay calm.
Allen's relatives and friends in the town, especially the visitors from the Keyes family, were furious.
They stood up one after another and geared up, planning to drive away Andrew, the star of the family!
"Ouch! Are you going to be violent?"
Andrew pretended to be scared and gave three high-fives.
Bang bang bang!
The crisp applause suppressed the angry comments from the crowd.
Strong magic waves arose in the hall, and a luminous magic circle appeared on the ground.
Nine figures teleported over collectively and appeared side by side behind Andrew.
The nine people were all wearing black robes with red moon and the emblem of death.
Andrew stopped pretending, smiled and spread his hands.
"Please allow me to introduce my junior brothers."
"Six of them are not good at academics and are in the late third level of cultivation."
"There are three other people who are as incompetent as me and are in the early stage of the fourth level."
"Sorry for making you laugh."
In the hall, the angry scolding suddenly stopped, and for a moment it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
At the Case family's table, the guests who had started shouting at each other and looking angry quietly sat back down, pretending that the matter had nothing to do with them.
"What do you want to do when you gather a crowd to make trouble?" Alan asked in a deep voice.
Andrew smiled and said slowly:
"The script you wrote is good. It would be a pity not to perform it."
"Crabbe and his ilk are not good enough to play the role of the big villain. Why don't we replace Crabbe and star in this good show for free."
"The master of the hall might as well choose ten of his favorite disciples and give us a good beating."
"We were beaten until we were rolling around and then left in despair. It not only entertained the guests, but also showed the majesty of your hotel. Isn't it a beautiful thing?"
"Come on, host! The actors are already in place, let's start!"
Andrew's provocation intensified the smell of gunpowder in the hall.
Everyone's eyes stopped on Allen, with different expressions.
Some people expect him to resolve the crisis, while others are gloating about his misfortune.
In full view of the public and on the cusp of the storm, Allen suddenly smiled lightly and said to Andrew:
"There's no need for ten people to deal with you bunch of bastards."
"The youngest female disciple in my martial arts school can easily defeat all of you."
"Really? I don't believe it!"
Andrew crossed his arms and hugged his chest, half-smiling.
"Master, it's you who said it. Please bring out that female disciple who can beat ten of us!"
"Well... I don't think it's necessary." Allen looked hesitant, "It would be too disappointing to fight and kill on the big day, so why don't we each take a step back -"
“That’s not okay!!”
Andrew interrupted him and laughed more and more frivolously.
"The cowhide is blown, and you still want to go down the steps?"
"There is no such thing as cheap in the world!"
Andrew's junior brothers also laughed and joined in the group's mocking of Allen.
"Now that things have happened, you can't help but be a coward!"
"Hurry up and invite your female disciple who is one to one dozen out of here!"
"We have no other intention, we just want to broaden our horizons!"
What you say, what I say, every sentence is harsh and harsh, without mercy.
Allen sighed, as if resigned to his fate.
"You're asking for it yourself, you can't blame me."
Turn around and walk to the little loli who was holding a wine bottle and yawning.
He reached out his hand and rubbed the little loli's silky silver hair.
"My dear, wake up! Someone is coming to cause trouble!"
"Hurry up and teach your godfather a lesson to those bad guests who don't understand etiquette!"
The silver-haired little loli rolled her eyes.
She slapped his hand away and stood up with the bottle in hand.
Staggering and drunk, he walked towards Andrew and others.
"A good beating, right?"
"Rolling and crawling, right?"
"This is the first time I've heard of your request."
The little loli burped and suddenly disappeared on the spot!
The next moment, he appeared in front of Andrew and others.
The petite and exquisite figure flashes continuously!
The speed is so fast that it exceeds the limit of human visual capture!
It seemed to split into ten identical figures, and they pounced on Andrew and others at the same time.
Andrew and his nine junior brothers were all shocked!
The little girl was so fast that they had no time to dodge or even blink!
Andrew and his nine junior brothers have disappeared.
Kicked one by one by Shiva, they were all kicked out in an instant!
Master Shiva struck out ten times in a row, and the ten sonic booms exploded almost at the same time. Finally, they were superimposed into a roar that echoed endlessly.
The whole place was silent.
Is this fierce little silver-haired girl really a female disciple of the Panthers Martial Arts School and the goddaughter of the owner of the gym, Allen?
People's hearts are filled with surprise and shock!
Allen thanked the White Tiger Warrior with his eyes and strode out of the door.
Six corpses were lying in the courtyard.
Among the six late third-level death warlocks, no one could withstand Wu Zun's kick, and they were killed on the spot!
Andrew and three early level four people were seriously injured and dying. They struggled to activate the teleportation spell and luckily managed to save their lives.
In fact, this was all thanks to Master Shiva being half drunk.
In her lolita form, her physique is weak and her combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the tiger-man form.
Not to mention compared to the peak form of "Tiger Head Sky"!
The move just now, "Flash Hundred Split Legs", only used less than five points of skill.
Allen looked at the corpse in the courtyard and was deeply shocked.
It seems that I still have a lot to learn from my "goddaughter".
…
After a little exercise of his fists and feet, Master Shiva woke up.
Thinking of that stupid apprentice who didn't live up to his expectations, he actually took advantage of himself in public.
It's unreasonable not to caress the teacher's noble head like a cat, but to treat her as a daughter!
How disrespectful! How disrespectful!!
The White Tiger Martial Lord became angrier the more he thought about it.
In the name of being taught martial arts, Allen was locked into the martial arts training room and the door was locked.
A pair of pink fists made a clicking sound.
A sinister smile appeared on her pretty little face.
…
After a violent beating, Master Shiva felt relieved.
Sit cross-legged on the soft cushions and enjoy the massage service from our disciples.
Allen was beaten by her until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he had to be beaten on the shoulders and back by the teacher. He served diligently and did not dare to complain.
Master Shiva yawned widely, revealing his white fangs.
"Alan, there is something I have to remind you. The people of Red Moon Island will not let you go."
"The stinky bats I beat away today will still cause trouble for you in the future."
"I can't always stay by your side as a nanny. What are you going to do?"
"Disciple has no other choice but to study hard and practice hard to improve his strength as soon as possible." Allen replied with a wry smile.
Master Shiva frowned and thought, shaking his head slightly.
"A high-level warlock from the Beast Worship Cult spends most of his life training crazily and hard in the secret realm."
"If you want to protect yourself and improve your strength as quickly as possible, you have to use the secret realm."
"On the first day of April, the Silver Moon Secret Realm opens."
"If you want to get a place to enter the secret realm to practice, you need to accumulate enough contributions from the disciples."
"You should think of a solution yourself and don't delay your practice."
Allen nodded and took note of his master's warning. Deep down in his heart, he still had some resistance to the secret realm of time.
Should I strive for a place to enter a secret place to practice?
It varies from person to person.
Ordinary disciples with mediocre talents have already recognized the reality.
Knowing that no matter how hard he worked, he could not win over a genius, he simply gave up on competing for a spot in the secret realm and was indifferent to fame and fortune.
Allen also wanted to be indifferent, but unfortunately he couldn't.
There were too many enemies. In order to save his family, he had no time to lie down and be a salted fish.
The second reason is because his talent has attracted the attention of the three leaders of Silver Moon Monastery.
The future of the monastery rests on geniuses, and Allen is a key cultivation target.
Even if he wanted to lie down, Master Shiva would not allow him to waste his youth and talent.
"Be obedient and obedient. From today on, you are my direct disciple."
"If you disobey me and make me angry, I will beat you once I see you again!"
"Two roads, you choose!"
The cute and fierce silver-haired loli uses threats and inducements, a two-pronged approach.
Allen couldn't resist, so he had to bite the bullet and join the involution army.
…
The night is already dark.
Master Shiva yawned and went back to the guest room to take a bath.
Renee was like a nanny, bathing with Master Shiva, rubbing her back and combing her hair.
After working hard for a while, I took the time to look for Allen after helping Master fall asleep.
"Junior brother, I heard that you haven't got the place to practice in the secret realm yet?"
"This is none of your business." Allen said calmly, "I have a way to get the quota myself. I don't need you to worry about it. Go to bed early."
Renee couldn't stand it, but she just loved to worry about her life, so she said excitedly:
"Junior brother, you probably don't know that the quota is actually transferable!"
"In the past six months, I have worked in the kitchen and the contribution points I got from selling tofu recipes have been saved and I can't bear to spend them. They are just enough to exchange for a place to enter the secret realm!"
"...So?" Allen suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Could this silly girl be thinking...?
"Junior brother! I'll give you my spot, so you don't have to waste your energy on tasks!" Renee said proudly.
"I've said it all, you don't need to worry!"
Allen avoided her sincere gaze, feeling a throbbing in his heart.
Compared to a silly person like Renee, he is not a good person, but he is not selfish enough to suck Renee's blood with peace of mind.
Renee was not surprised by his cold attitude and patiently persuaded him to accept the gift, as if coaxing a wayward baby.
"Junior brother, I'm not doing this to make you owe me any debt, but actually to get rid of a trouble."
"Even if it's for me, you have to accept this quota, otherwise I won't be able to explain to my family!"
"What's going on? Tell me in detail!"
Allen heard that there was something wrong here, and he immediately became interested.
…
Renee's troubles are related to her family and a failed engagement.
The Cochise family from which Renee was born has lost its bloodline inheritance and was forced to turn to business. It specializes in candy and snack shops, and the business is very prosperous.
Renee is the eldest granddaughter of the third generation of the family. She has mediocre warlock qualifications and has not shown a shrewd mind that is good at doing business. Naturally, she is not taken seriously by her elders.
In recent years, I had an unexpected encounter. With some inexplicable luck, I successfully entered the Silver Moon Monastery and was accepted as an inner disciple by Master Shiva.
In a letter to her family, Renee showed off her luck and plans to enter the Silver Moon Secret Realm to practice and will not be able to go home to visit relatives for some time in the future.
As a result, because of this quota, it attracted the covetousness of interested people...
Renee had a fiancé named Phoebus.
Six years ago, Phoebus was just a street kid.
After detecting the superior dragon vein talent, he was adopted by the Cochise family and regarded as a material that could be made.
The hungry and cold street life shaped his unscrupulous character.
Phoebus knows that opportunities are rare, and he must climb up at all costs!
In order to change his destiny and obtain training resources, he pursued Renee crazily.
He chose Renee as the target of his strategy because he could see that Renee was the most innocent and simple among the ladies in the Cochise family, and the easiest to catch.
This is his street experience.
Not long after, Phoebus became Renee's fiancé as she wished.
At that time, he was just a son-in-law with no status at all.
Renee has never discriminated against her fiancé who was from a lower social background.
In addition to refusing to have sex with him before marriage, in terms of money, I will grant my request.
He even gave Phoebus the cultivation resources allocated to him by his family.
Through Renee, Phoebus obtained a large number of magic stones and letters of recommendation for further study at the North Island Warlock Academy.
Beidao Warlock Academy is the base camp of Dragon Vein Warlock, which is suitable for Phoebus to study.
Phoebus entered the academy and quickly became like a fish in water.
At first, he exchanged letters with Renee, but later he met his new love in college, a daughter of a wealthy family than Renee.
Naturally, he likes the new and hates the old, and becomes increasingly indifferent to Renee.
Two years ago, Phoebus sent Renee her last letter, clearly expressing her intention to break off the engagement.
Renee wrote back overnight, trying to win her fiancé's heart.
However, from then on, Phoebus stopped replying to her letters and broke off all contact with her.
Maybe it's because evil people will have their own troubles.
Phoebus's girlfriend at North Island College, her father lost power in the power struggle and was forced to sacrifice his daughter to a certain boss of the rival faction in order to survive.
Phoebus was so angry that he proposed to elope with his girlfriend.
He never expected that his girlfriend was more realistic than him.
Decisively abandon him and fall into the arms of the boss.
Phoebus offended the boss, was suppressed in the academy, and had no future.
She returned to her hometown in despair, cried bitterly, and begged Renee's grandfather for forgiveness.
After all, Phoebus is talented, young and promising.
The contemporary patriarch of the Cochise family, Renee's grandfather, is unwilling to be a candy merchant and dreams of restoring the family's past glory.
In order to revitalize the family, genius is indispensable!
The small temple of the Cochise family cannot afford to support a great god, so Phoebus is the only seedling worth cultivating.
The patriarch believes that he has the overall situation in mind and does not care about personal honor or loss. All decisions are made for the rejuvenation of the family!
Therefore, he believed that he had reason to ask his granddaughter to ignore the past grudges and continue to act as a tool to win over Phoebus.
After learning that Renee was appreciated by Master Shiva and accepted as a disciple in the inner courtyard, he wanted to use her connections to recommend Phoebus to transfer to Silver Moon Monastery.
Even...grandfather asked Renee to give up the place to enter the secret realm to practice to Phoebus!
Objectively speaking, Phoebus's talent is much better than Renee's.
For the sake of the long-term rejuvenation of the family, it is necessary to spend precious resources wisely.
Renee is a member of the Cochise family.
In the eyes of her grandfather, she and her secret place were also "resources" at the family's disposal.
Renee is not willing to give up everything she has fought so hard for.
Not willing to accept the heartless man and let him eat his own "turn back grass".
She is kind, but not stupid!
She is gentle, but not cowardly!
Renee was unhappy with her family's decision and couldn't directly refuse her grandfather's arrangement, so she came up with a compromise.
"Instead of giving up the spot to a heartless man, it would be better to give it to you, Junior Brother Allen!" Renee said angrily.
"Renee, I really can't understand your brain."
Allen turned around and flicked her head on the forehead.
"It's true that a heartless man is hateful, but I don't have a good look on you and even called you a 'silly girl'. Why do you repay kindness with kindness?"
"Junior Brother Allen, you are different from Phoebus!"
Renee hesitated to speak.
What is the difference between ex-boyfriend and Allen?
Her intuition told her that her ex-boyfriend was trying to disguise his selfish nature with sweet words, while Allen, on the contrary, had been using cold words to cover up his inner enthusiasm.
It's a pity that she is stupid and cannot accurately express what she is thinking in words.
"Silly girl, what do you think?" Alan asked Renee casually while lying on the bed with his arms pillowed on his head.
"I don't want to get back together with Phoebus. This is the bottom line, but I don't dare to directly contradict my grandfather..."
"so what?"
"So, I want you to accompany me home and refuse my grandfather's request for me."
Renee knelt down beside the bed and said confidently.
Allen was shocked!
What's the point of eating melon and getting it on yourself?!
"Renee, please think clearly, this is none of my business? Why should I stand up for you!"
As soon as Allen's anger came up, Renee put it out in an incredible way...
This silly girl stared with a pair of deer-like eyes and said seriously:
"Of course it's none of your business!"
"I'm your dog!"
"It depends on the owner to beat a dog! If you don't help me, who can I rely on?"
"No! Wait a minute!" Allen felt his head was confused, "Let's start from the beginning... When did I accept you as a dog?"
"I said I wanted to be your licking dog, and you didn't refuse!" Renee said plausibly, "I didn't refuse, I just agreed!"
"...Do I have time to refuse now?"
Renee held onto the edge of the bed and shook her head firmly.
Allen held his forehead and sighed.
He was too busy right now to go all the way to the Cochise family for such a trivial matter.
Since Renee is shameless and insists on being his dog, let Renee say it directly in her letter to her grandfather:
"A direct disciple who voluntarily sold herself to Master Shiva and the owner of Panthes Martial Arts School. From now on, she will sever her ties with the Cochise family. Whoever dares to dissent should come to argue with her master!"
"What a great idea!"
Renee was very happy and immediately got stationery and letter paper.
She also took the initiative to draw up a deed of sale, put her fingerprints on it, and then asked Allen to sign it, accepting her personal property.
"I just made up a reason to help you deceive your family, how could you take it seriously?" Allen couldn't laugh or cry.
Renee rolled her eyes at him and spoke earnestly to enlighten the stupid master:
"My grandpa is not stupid, and neither is Phoebus! How can you deceive them if you just say nothing?"
Renee handed him a pen and paper and coaxed him with a smile.
"When you're doing a show, you have to do the whole thing!"
"Come on, sign and pledge your signature obediently!"
"When you're done, I'll make you a delicious late-night snack, wash your feet and warm your bed!"
Allen felt strange when he saw the impatient look on her face.
"...How do you make it look like I'm selling myself?!"
