"Who are you! Come quickly! A thief has broken in!"
After Zhao Baige accidentally ran into a man's arms, his first reaction when he saw him was not romance and blushing, but he quickly broke away and shouted to catch the thief.
The drugstore clerks rushed over in a hurry after hearing the news, and some clerks were ready to run out to report the incident to the authorities.
When Lin Jichen saw this, he remembered that he was still wearing a disguise mask on his face and quickly took it off.
"it's me."
Zhao Baige laughed, and then complained: "Boss, why do you pretend to be a bad guy when you are so good, making me think there is a thief in the store."
"Well, it's a long story."
Lin Jichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He waved for others to go back to work, and then told Zhao Baige what had just happened outside.
After hearing this, Zhao Baige had a bitter look on his face and complained: "Why are they still guarding me? I'm almost annoyed to death. I haven't left the store for a long time."
Lin Jichen said with a smile: "You can go out if you want. No one would dare to do anything to you when you are wandering around the city."
"No, even if they won't kill me, they will keep surrounding me. As long as I don't agree to their request, they will keep following me. It's very annoying."
Zhao Baige complained.
"What are you doing with me?" Lin Jichen asked knowingly.
"It's just that... they want to recruit me to become an alchemist in another guild... But don't worry, boss, I will never go. I just like to stay here!"
Zhao Baige was afraid that Lin Jichen would doubt him, so he quickly expressed his loyalty.
Lin Jichen smiled and said, "Why are you so nervous? I never doubted you."
Zhao Baige smiled stupidly and said sheepishly: "I'm afraid you won't be happy."
"You won't leave, so why shouldn't I be happy? On the contrary, seeing your attitude makes me very happy. Come on, come in and tell you something."
After Lin Jichen finished speaking, he walked to Zhao Baige's alchemy room without any explanation.
Zhao Baige followed obediently, but he was wondering in his mind whether the boss was still worried and was planning to talk to her about a salary increase...
However, when she entered the alchemy room, Lin Jichen never mentioned about changing jobs, but asked her to make a furnace of sixth-grade elixirs.
Zhao Baige did not hesitate and began to enter a serious state on the spot, sitting in front of the alchemy furnace and concentrating on refining the elixir.
This alchemy furnace is still the exquisite phoenix pattern furnace that Lin Jichen gave her originally. It has become Zhao Baige's closest companion.
Lin Jichen was right next to her, watching her skillful alchemy skills and confident eyes.
He is completely different from the ignorant and unfamiliar idiot he was back then, who couldn't even make the most basic and simple rejuvenation elixir.
During this year's game time, Zhao Baige was completely immersed in the world of alchemy.
She loves this work and regards it as a lifelong pursuit. As long as she has time, she will spend time in the alchemy room and work hard on alchemy.
Lin Jichen was also extremely indulgent towards her. No matter how many elixirs she had made and how many medicinal materials she had wasted, he never minded.
Relying on Lin Jichen's unconditional trust in her, unlimited supply of medicinal materials, and Zhao Baige's talent for alchemy, she was gradually discovered.
Today's Zhao Baige is no longer what he used to be, and he vaguely looks like the Alchemy King back then.
Lin Jichen can be sure that if this continues, it is certain that Zhao Baige will become the master of alchemy, and the speed will be much faster than in his previous life!
After an hour of refining, a batch of extremely high-quality sixth-grade elixir was freshly baked.
Zhao Baige picked up the elixir with a smile, put it in front of Lin Jichen, and said, "Boss, how do you think this furnace of eight treasure elixirs turned out?"
Lin Jichen took it and inspected it carefully and praised: "It's very good. It completely exceeds the standard. The quality is very high. It's really great."
When Zhao Baige heard Lin Jichen's praise, a sweet giggle appeared on his face.
She just loved to hear Lin Jichen's praises for her, and other people's compliments on her didn't sound like that.
Because Zhao Baige knows that other people's praise is just flattery or surprise and admiration.
But Lin Jichen was different. She and Lin Jichen were both teachers and friends. When she first started making alchemy, Lin Jichen not only acted as her boss, but also her teacher.
Lin Jichen would often come over to teach her how to make elixirs when she was free, correct her shortcomings, and teach her everything she could.
This is also one of the main reasons why Zhao Baige was able to become a sixth-level alchemist in such a short period of time. Because of Lin Jichen's guidance, she avoided many detours.
Hearing Lin Jichen's praise now feels like the pride of a stupid student who became a teacher.
After Lin Jichen finished speaking, he put down the elixir and sighed, "Bai Ge, I have to tell you something very important. You may not be able to continue like this."
Zhao Baige's smile suddenly solidified.
Her first reaction was, was Lin Jichen going to drive her away?
Or maybe someone bribed him and asked him to trade himself to other guilds.
Zhao Baige's expression instantly panicked.
Sales contracts are too common in capital operations, and her contract was in Lin Jichen's hands.
Lin Jichen could go wherever he wanted her to go, and it was not up to her to make the decision, unless she could afford the sky-high liquidated damages.
"Boss, are you going to sell me..."
Zhao Baige looked nervous and looked at Lin Jichen pitifully.
"Ah?" Lin Jichen raised his head, not understanding what she meant at all.
Zhao Baige thought that Lin Jichen had guessed, so she acted like this on purpose. She immediately grabbed Lin Jichen's arm and begged pitifully.
"Boss, please don't sell me out. I don't want to go to another guild. I just want to stay here. As long as you don't sell me out, I can do whatever you want. I can reduce my salary, or... I don't want it.
The salary is fine, okay, please..."
At this time, Zhao Baige felt like a poor puppy that was about to be sold by its owner. Sadness and pain surged to the tip of his nose, and his eyes instantly turned red.
Here, alchemy is a kind of fun. She likes to help her boss make money while refining alchemy. This is what makes her feel the most fulfilled with her abilities.
She doesn't want to be traded to other guilds and become a money-making tool for strangers.
She likes to stay here because she has Lin Jichen here, a good boss and teacher who teaches her to pamper herself and accompany her.
In addition to refining elixirs and helping to manage the pharmacy, Zhao Baige also visits the Bahuang Forum every day.
I’ve seen many Alchemist players commenting on how poor their treatment is and how bad their boss’s attitude is.
Zhao Baige compared them with Lin Jichen and felt that Lin Jichen was simply the best boss in the world!
She also often reads reports about Lin Jichen on forums in her spare time.
See all kinds of news about him making a splash, see him become the best master in the Eight Desolations, see him be able to defeat no matter how strong the enemy he encounters, etc.
Over time, Zhao Baige, in addition to being grateful and loyal to Lin Jichen, actually also had a girlish admiration for her...
Seeing Zhao Baige's anxious and angry expression, Lin Jichen was dumbfounded for a moment.
What's going on? Who said she was going to be sold?
