Chapter 23: I agree

"Uhm! No, I agree with your offer," Fu Jinlong replied, as he snapped out of his stupor.

"Oh, That's good, that's good." The duo were relieved.

Hong Jun added, "So brother, when will You give us the pills?" He asked impatiently.

"Yes brother Fu, Please tell us?" Lang Kun also asked.

"Well, I don't have the pills right now. I have to concoct the pills," Fu Jinlong said while sitting comfortably on the chair.

"Oh, that's awesome brother. I never thought that you could make those pills as well. I thought the daoist master must have given those miracle pills to you." Hong Jun was amazed again.

"How much talent does this guy have? Not any Tom, Dick, and Harry know this kind of pill's formula. If the effect of the pill is true, It will be a miracle pill."

By the side Lang Kun looked at Fu Jinlong and asked, "Brother Fu, When will you be able to make the pills?"

"Oh.. that. I can make it today and give it to you. You can even consume it today."

"Really? That fast?" Both of them exclaimed.

Fu Jinlong added, "For that, I need to get some herbs from a medicinal shop."

Jun and Kun had an understanding look on their faces.

"Oh. If that's so, then why don't we head to the shop. I know a familiar Medicinal shop like that. My family's elders purchase herbs and medicine from that shop regularly," Hong Jun suggested.

"Okay. Then wait for some time. I need to finish reading these books. Ah...I forgot to ask your name. Sorry about that." Fu Jinlong suddenly realized that he didn't even know the duo's name, He forgot to ask their name, As a result he got a little embarrassed.

After hearing his words, Jun and Kun also realized it and then they glanced at each other. Their expression was a little awkward.

"Mmhm..Don't worry about it, Brother Fu." Lang Kun laughed dryly. He didn't blame him. How can they get angry at their Golden goose. Fu Jinlong was their opportunity. If it was anyone else, they would've gotten angry. And they also didn't even give him a chance to ask their name.

Lang Kun continued, "Anyway, My name is Lang Kun, I am from Lang family and this is my childhood friend Hong Jun, he is from Hong family of FengXuan City. We are grade 12 students of FengXuan City high school." He pointed towards Hong Jun and introduced him also. Hong Jun just nodded.

Fu Jinlong nodded in understanding gestures at his words. Although Fu Jinlong didn't know that much about the structure of the city, he heard a little about the Hong family. The Hong family is a millionaire family after all. And as for the Lang family, he didn't know anything about it.

Suddenly as if remembering something Fu Jinlong asked, "Do you guys know Fu Liang from grade 12? He is a student of the same school as you."

Both of them thought for a while and replied, "Are you talking about Fu Liang from grade 12 class 1?"

"You mean that nerd guy who wears a pair of glasses on his eyes?"

Fu Jinlong nodded, "Yes, he is the one. Are you guys familiar with him?

"Uhn...No. We don't personally know him. He is a little famous in the school, in the opposite way that is," Hong Jun said with a complicated expression.

Upon hearing that, Fu Jinlong's face sank. He understood what Jun was trying to say. Just because Fu Liang was poor and an orphan, many second generation rich students criticise and bullies him. Many students are envious because of his good grades. From their point of view only they can be in class 1. Fu Liang, a poor peasant can't study in class 1. Class One is for the genius and extremely rich students.

Just thinking about it Fu Jinlong's mood became gloomy.

The duo noticed the gloomy atmosphere around him.

"By the way, brother Fu. What is your relationship with him? His surname and yours are the same. Are you two brothers?" Hong Jun asked, curious.

Fu Jinlong lifted his head up and looked at them.

"No, he is not my brother...He is more than my brother," Fu Jinlong declared emotionally.

Fu Jinlong added, "We have grown up together in the same orphanage. At a young age, We wanted to be rich so we gave ourselves the same surname. We don't even know our origin." He sighed.

"Oh..That's why." Hong Jun nodded in understanding. Lang Kun listened silently, while lazily leaning down on the table.

*****

After that short introduction session, all of them stopped their conversation and Fu Jinlong continued his studying.
