Daily tasks of mistakenly brushing tasks on the spot

Then, the old store manager confidently expressed his analysis and speculation.

"so……."

At this point, the store manager paused for a moment, keeping the audience in suspense, before continuing:

"You must have been attracted by the charm of the goddess Hestia, so you chose to join the clan and become the first elder of the clan, so that it would be easier to conquer the goddess."

The store manager's analysis was very straightforward, and he simply said that Bai Ke was fooled. If we ignore the fact that he had a golden finger and wanted to hide among a small clan, this guess was indeed correct and quite logical if we think about it carefully.

After he finished speaking, the store manager looked at Bai Ke's dazed expression, thinking that he had guessed correctly. Bai Ke was shocked and did not take it seriously. Then he asked confidently:

"Little Bai, am I right?"

After Bai Ke came to his senses, he wanted to refute this question, but after the refutation he needed to find new reasons and excuses to fill the gap.

As the saying goes, one lie requires countless lies to cover it up. After this beginning, countless reasons and excuses will definitely be needed later.

But Bai Ke didn't want to go through so much trouble. He didn't like trouble, and here was a good excuse that could save him a lot of trouble.

"Mr. Manager, you are right."

After a few seconds of silence, Bai Ke nodded resignedly and admitted the matter.

"I'll just say it."

Bai Ke's affirmation brought a bright smile to the store manager's face. His guess was right. The young man Bai really liked his goddess.

"By the way, Bai Ke, what I asked before, how is the relationship between you and the goddess going?"

After confirming this matter, the old store manager asked the same question again, wanting to get the answer. After all, he also wanted to know the gossip between the goddess and the children of his own clan.

"The relationship between me and the goddess is pretty good."

Faced with this problem, Bai Ke had no choice but to go down this path. After a slight hesitation, he continued speaking resignedly.

"So, there hasn't been much progress in your relationship yet."

The old store manager understood the meaning of Bai Ke's words, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Uh...that's right."

Faced with the question, Bai Ke could only admit it again and answer according to the store manager's words.

"Bai boy, have you confessed?"

The old store manager asked seriously, and he didn't even bother to drink tea at this moment, which shows how much importance he attaches to this issue.

"No."

Bai Ke shook his head in response.

"You can't do that. You have to be persistent when chasing a girl, especially a goddess. Since you have such intentions, why don't you boldly express your feelings as soon as possible? What if someone else gets there first?"

The old store manager said with some disappointment.

At this moment, Bai Ke didn't know what was going on. How could the serious topic between the two of them suddenly turn to chasing girls? This made him feel very puzzled.

Chapter 94: Teaching

"Manager, you are right. After I go back, I will find an opportunity to try to express my feelings successfully."

Faced with the disappointed look of the old store manager, Bai Ke could only continue to speak.

"You can't just try. It's rare to meet someone you like in life. You must pursue them. You must!"

The store manager said this with a serious expression, and then he continued as if reminiscing:

"Thinking back to when I was young and was pursuing my partner, I relied on persistence and perseverance to win her over and make her my wife."

The old store manager looked nostalgic, but he did not indulge in the memories too much. He then said encouragingly:

"So, you have to work hard and try to marry your own god and give birth to a big fat boy for your family..."

At this point, the store manager seemed to have thought of something and said apologetically:

"Sorry, I almost forgot that gods and us mortals cannot have children. My mistake. I said the wrong thing."

"Manager, it's okay."

Bai Ke shook his head and said.

The store manager thought for a moment and said with an expression that said, "I'm very optimistic about you."

"Little Bai, with your looks comparable to mine back then, if you pursue other girls, you will definitely win every time. And many goddesses are open-minded, so as long as you pursue a goddess and persuade her, it will be no problem for you to marry another girl and have a big fat boy to carry on the family line. I believe in you, keep going."

After hearing these words, Bai Ke's mouth twitched and he was speechless. Is this human language?

What do you mean by being open-minded? Hestia is actually a jealous person.

Pillow talk, are you kidding me?

Am I the kind of person who wants to start a harem?

Moreover, I don't have any thoughts in that regard towards my own Lord God, so how could I confess to him? It's impossible!

Just when Bai Ke was daydreaming, the old store manager wanted to show off, so he continued:

"That is to say, I was only in love with my old partner back then. Otherwise, with your and my looks being equal, I could definitely win the hearts of a lot of girls."

"Mr. Store Manager, you were really amazing back then."

Listening to the store manager's boasting, whether it was true or not, Bai Ke went against his conscience and praised him.

"of course."

The store manager nodded proudly, and then he began to advise:

"Little Bai, you must consider my suggestion. Marry more wives and have more fat boys. Don't be like me..."

As he spoke, the old store manager's voice became lower and lower, and finally became silent. The words that came out of his mouth subconsciously reminded him of something.

At this moment, the old face of the store manager showed extremely complex emotions such as pain, regret, sadness, nostalgia, and suffering.

Seeing this scene, Bai Ke understood that the old store manager was thinking of sad things in the past and could not control his emotions.

Bai Ke wanted to say something to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start, because he didn't know the store manager's true past, he just knew a general idea.

As a result, Bai Ke didn't have any good way to comfort him at the moment. If he comforted him directly, the more he said, the more mistakes he would make, and it might touch the store manager's pain point, which would have the opposite effect. So now he could only watch quietly and wait for the other party to come out of it on his own.

"Hey... let's not talk about this anymore."

The old store manager noticed his own loss of composure. He quickly put away the emotion on his face, shook his head and sighed, then said somewhat embarrassedly:

"Little Bai, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"Mr. Manager, that's not the case."

Bai Ke immediately shook his head upon hearing this and didn't want to say anything more about this matter, for fear of causing the old store manager to recall more past events and make him unhappy.

At this moment, the door of the study was pushed open and a young figure walked out. This was the young man who was cleaning the store before.

"Manager, I've already cleaned up. I'm leaving now."

The young man looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. He walked into the yard with a smile on his face and spoke to the store manager.

"go Go."

The old store manager smiled and waved his hand when he heard this.

Bai Ke looked at the young man with some confusion, but he didn't ask anything.

After saying hello, the young man saw a slightly more mature young man next to him looking at him, so he smiled at him politely. Seeing this, Bai Ke also smiled politely in return.

After the two greeted each other, neither of them had any intention of getting to know each other better, so the young man turned and left, and Bai Ke did not try to keep him.

After seeing the young man leave, Bai Ke suddenly had an idea and thought of a way to change the subject, so he asked curiously:

"Manager, who is this young man who left?"

"His name is Colin. After you left, I felt that I was indeed getting old and could no longer do heavy work, so I hired a young man to help me clean the bookstore. This young man is Colin."

The store manager's attention was diverted, and he began to introduce the young man who had just left. Halfway through, he said with a sigh:

"Come to think of it, Colin's experience is somewhat similar to yours. Both of them came from outside and wanted to find a job in Orario to support themselves, and at the same time wanted to join the Familiar."

At this point, the old store manager couldn't help but laugh, and he was obviously surprised and amazed that he could meet two young men with the same experience in succession.

"That's quite a coincidence."

Bai Ke was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't find it strange. After all, Orario was a world-famous huge city, and countless people from all over the world flocked here every day. It was normal to have such a coincidence.

Next, the two chatted about some trivial matters, and the old store manager talked about the interesting things he encountered during the days that Bai Ke was away.

Bai Ke also talked about some of his experiences in the dungeon. Of course, this part has been modified. He did not want to expose his own strength, so he compared his strength to that of a newcomer who had just become an adventurer not long ago and was still wandering around the upper rookie area, slowly honing his strength.

As the two talked, before they knew it, the small teapot had run out of tea after refilling four or five cups of tea, and their conversation had come to an end.

"Manager, wait a moment, I'll go make another pot of tea."

Seeing that there was no tea in the teapot, Bai Ke stood up, picked up the teapot, and said to the store manager.

"Okay, little Bai, don't go make tea. I am already very satisfied that you can come and chat with me for so long today. Let's stop here today."

Seeing Bai Ke was about to make a pot of tea, the old manager waved his hand and spoke.

"That's...ok."

Bai Ke hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement and placed the teapot in his hand on the stone table.

Seeing this, the old store manager nodded with satisfaction, then he stood up from the stone chair and said:

"Little Bai, I think you have taken time out of your busy schedule to come and see me. I won't waste your time. Let me see you off."

"Mr. Manager, I'm sorry to bother you today."

Seeing this, Bai Ke did not refuse anything and agreed. After chatting for such a long time, it was time to leave.

"It's not a matter of disturbing or not disturbing. I'm very happy that you can come to see me and chat with me for so long. How could I feel that you are disturbing me?"

The old store manager shook his head, and then he said, "Okay, let's stop talking. I'll take you there."

After he finished speaking, the old store manager turned and walked to the side. Seeing this, Bai Ke didn't say anything and followed him closely.

Led by the store manager, the two entered the bookstore one after the other, then walked through the back room of the bookstore and came to the hall in the front where various books were stored.

At this moment, the bookstore was closed and there was no one inside. It seemed a bit empty and extremely deserted.

The two walked to the door. After the old store manager pushed open the door of the bookstore, he hesitated for a moment and asked hopefully:

"Little Bai, if you have time in the future, can you try to come and see me once every... one or two months?"

"Manager, don't worry, I will come here once a month as long as I have time."

These words made Bai Ke stunned, but he quickly came to his senses and gave his assurance.

"That's good... That's good..."

Bai Ke's answer brought a smile to the old store manager's face, and he nodded and murmured.

After whispering a few words, the old store manager looked at Bai Ke and couldn't help but ask again:

"Little Bai, you must remember my words! You must marry more wives and have more fat boys in the future!"

"Um...Okay, I definitely will."

The corners of Bai Ke's mouth twitched. He suppressed the embarrassment in his heart and nodded to agree to this matter.

After agreeing to this, Bai Ke was worried that the old store manager would say something outrageous, so he said:

"Mr. Manager, if that's the case, I'll leave first."

After saying that, Bai Ke turned and ran outside. However, after running more than ten meters, he turned around and looked at the elderly man standing at the door of the store. He waved his hand and shouted:
