Chapter 151 Invitation

Liu Ke, who had already propped himself up, saw Gao Yushan come in through the dark door, so he relaxed his arms and fell back on the bed.

He said in a rather old-fashioned manner, like Uncle Ge, "I'm a little tired. I didn't feel anything when I was lying on the mountain before."

"But once I lay down on this soft bed, I felt all my fatigue go away. I'm really sleepy."

As he was speaking, Liu Ke felt his eyes becoming increasingly heavy and gradually closed. He was conscious but it was purely physical fatigue.

Having said this, he closed his eyes and asked, "Why, don't you feel tired?"

After hearing this, Gao Yushan also lay down on Liu Ke's two-meter-long bed, stretched out her body, and said, "After all, I have practiced some orthodox methods, and I am full of energy."

"Of course, it's not like before."

After hearing this, Liu Ke couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pinch his temple, saying, "There's no way. At present, we haven't found any materials that can fully conduct Qi, nor can we perfectly replace the meridians with prosthetics."

Before she could finish her words, Gao Yushan patted her head and interrupted her. Then, the prosthetic girl said softly, "I don't mean to blame you. Everything is fine now. I..."

"Being able to move like a normal person feels like a dream."

After hearing this, Liu Ke breathed a sigh of relief and said comfortingly, "It will be better in the future..."

For some reason, this topic became more serious, causing both of them to fall silent. After a while, Gao Yushan stood up with a red face and moved towards Liu Ke.

She pursed her lips, suppressing her increasingly fast-beating heart, and said aloud: "Liu Ke...you said I..."

Gao Yushan definitely wanted to say something important, which could be seen from her gradually red cheeks.

But perhaps it was too difficult to say it out loud. Gao Yushan hesitated for a long time but could not say it out loud. Liu Ke opened his eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Seeing him asking questions, Gao Yushan's face turned redder. After a while, she seemed to muster up the courage again. She grabbed Liu Ke's left hand and said, "I... I just want to ask you, I..."

Looking at the flushed face, even the dumbest person would understand what the other person was trying to say, and Liu Ke's heart suddenly began to beat faster.

But this slightly ambiguous and pink state did not last for more than a few seconds before there was another knock on the door.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
No matter how heated the two people in the room were, the thudding sound was like a basin of cold water, directly suppressing the flames.

Liu Ke looked up at the door, then turned to look at Gao Yushan and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

But before he could finish his words, his artificial eyes began to flash with light.

After a few breaths, his expression grew more serious, and he communicated to Gao Yushan via electronic messaging, "Something's not right. I checked the corridor camera, and there's no one outside. So where's this knocking coming from?"

Gao Yushan was originally sulking because her "state" was interrupted in an unreasonable way, but after receiving Liu Ke's message, she became nervous and stared at the door.

Just as the two men were on high alert, a man's voice came from outside the door: "Mr. Liu Ke, I'm sorry to bother you. Excuse me, may I come in?"

Hearing this voice, Liu Ke and Gao Yushan looked at each other again, then shook their heads at each other and began to adjust their postures.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Just as the two people in the room were tidying themselves up, the door was knocked again.

Seemingly very persistent and patient in wanting to see Liu Ke, the voice spoke again. "Mr. Liu Ke, may I come in?"

Liu Ke in the room, after finishing most of the tidying up, squinted his eyes, put his hand close to the wall, and projected a small [wall-penetrating radar].

The moment the radar started working, Liu Ke discovered something. There was indeed a person, or rather a strong man, standing outside the door.

What’s strange is that the radar can indeed sense that there is a person standing at the door, but the corridor camera can’t see it at all, as if this person is completely invisible.

Liu Ke frowned and started using the projection through the wall.

As he used his ability, a small dog was projected in the corridor outside the room. Its dog head stared at the location of the 'invisible man', but did not launch an attack.

After the greyhound showed up, the invisible strong man seemed to know what Liu Ke meant and made a strange movement.

In the scanning field of view provided by the radar, the person outside the door made a motion of lifting his clothes, and then he lost his invisibility and appeared.

"Now, are you relieved?"

As the words fell, the man's figure was seen in the dual perspectives provided by the corridor camera and the puppy. He was a strong man nearly two meters tall with dark purple hair.

After comparing the man's face with the company's database, Liu Ke learned his identity: 'Jin Yong' from Liaodong, who was proficient in Tiangang Qi and Pikong Zhang.

Liu Ke took a deep breath, then he lowered his voice and said, "Please come in."

After hearing this, Jin Yong, who was outside the door, first glanced at the dog, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay."

The big man from Liaodong turned the doorknob slowly and lightly, took a quick look, and then walked in.

But as soon as he entered the door, he saw two people sitting on a big bed inside the door, a man and a woman, their clothes were quite neat.

Seeing this, Jin Yong couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. His deep voice softened as he said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu Ke, I... don't think I came at the right time."

After saying that, he paused for a few seconds and said tentatively, "How about I come again tomorrow morning if you're free?"

After hearing this, Liu Ke raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, it's not what you think. Anyway, you probably misunderstood something."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Looking at you, you don't look like you have bad intentions. Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

As he spoke, Liu Ke snapped his fingers and projected a chair to the burly man in front of him.

At the same time, he and Gao Yushan both straightened their bodies and faced each other in a more formal manner.

After Jin Yong sat down, he said without further ado, "Mr. Liu Ke, my name is Jin Meng, and I'm here to invite you."

Hearing this, Liu Ke couldn't help but feel a little amused and asked with a smile: "Invite me? Uh, sorry, you are..."

"What's the origin?"
