On the day of the party.

Although the party was scheduled for 8pm, Ling Luxian still got up early in the morning.

This is not in line with his personality. Unless necessary, this guy usually sleeps until noon.

I picked a random piece of clothing from the closet, put it on and went out.

"What present should I bring to Mrs. Wells?"

Ling Luxian was strolling on the street, talking to himself.

Before he knew it, he arrived at the door of a bookstore.

Ling Luxian remembered that Mrs. Wells seemed to be a devout believer.

From time to time, a Bible quote or two would come out of her mouth.

"So just buy a paper Bible?!"

After entering the bookstore, Ling Luxian went straight to the religious books area. He walked between the bookshelves, looking for the Bible.

Found it! Ling Luxian picked up a hardcover Bible, opened it and looked at it. He felt it was pretty good. He was about to pay the bill when he heard a voice from the side.

“This book is perfect for you.”

Ling Luxian turned his head and saw a strange girl standing next to him and said with a smile.

The girl has long golden hair, eyes like deep lakes, and she is wearing a white dress, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.

What a weird guy, I didn't expect there would be such a guy in Night City.

But thinking about Misty, I felt relieved.

After all, in this day and age, it is indeed not normal to open a paper bookstore.

"Who are you?" Ling Luxian asked doubtfully.

"My name is Angie, and I'm the owner of this bookstore," the girl introduced herself. "I saw you were looking for a Bible, so I came over to say hello."

Angel? Angel, God's angel? She seems to come from a religious family.

"So that's how it is." Ling Luxian smiled, "What do you think of this Bible?"

"This is a very good version and very suitable for reading." An Qi nodded.

"What a pity, I'm not a disciple of God," Ling Lu thought to himself.

"What do you think of it as a gift?"

"I think this is a very special gift," Angie said with a smile. "The fact that you gave her a Bible shows that she is very devoted to the Lord."

Ling Luxian nodded slightly, agreeing with An Qi's words.

An Qi continued, "I believe she will be very happy to receive such a gift."

"I hope so." Ling Luxian said with a smile, then took the Bible and went to pay the bill.

"May God bless you." An Qi said to Ling Lu after helping him pay the bill.

Ling Luxian still respects people with faith, no matter what their faith is.

He bowed slightly and said, "The same goes for you. If you have any trouble, please contact me and the Lord will send me to help you."

"Thank you." An Qi smiled sweetly.

Walking out of the bookstore, Ling Luxian looked up at the sky, secretly looking forward to tonight's party.

He believed that this special gift would definitely bring a special surprise to Mrs. Wells.

Uh……

Ling Luxian suddenly shook his head, wondering why he suddenly thought of the big durian.

The party started on time at 8 o'clock in the evening.

Ling Luxian also drove to the Wild Wolf Bar to attend Jack's party.

Entering the bar, Ling Luxian saw that everyone was talking enthusiastically. He looked around, looking for Jack.

Of course, Jack had already discovered Ling Luxian.

"You're early, brother!"

Jack walked over and punched Ling Luxian on the shoulder.

"Of course, for my brother's sake, I have to support you as a brother! You've become much stronger recently!"

Ling Luxian touched his slightly sore shoulder.

"Haha, of course!" Jack smiled proudly, "I've been exercising recently."

After Ling Luxian exchanged a few words with Jack, he began to look around.

"Who are you looking for?" Jack asked curiously.

"Mrs. Wells," Ling Luxian replied, "I want to give her the gift."

"Oh, my mom! She hasn't come yet. Why would she come if she wants to? Why would she bring a gift?"

Ling Luxian shook his head. "It's the first time we meet, so I have to bring a gift. It's polite."

Jack handed Ling Lu a beer and said, "Have a drink first and wait for a while."

Ling Lu took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Just then, there was a commotion at the door. Ling Luxian turned around and saw a middle-aged woman in a jacket walking in.

"Look, my mother is here." Jack said in Ling Luxian's ear.

Ling Luxian couldn't help but secretly gasp, "Your mother is such a big shot."

"Of course! In Heywood, everyone has to give my mother some face." Jack said proudly with his hands on his hips.

I don't know what Mrs. Wells was like in the past, but it seems that the brothers in the Valentino gang all respect her very much.

The most famous middleman in the Haywood area, "Father", is also an old acquaintance of hers.

Of course, the priest is not an imp, but Sebastian Ibarra.

Therefore, the mercenaries who made a living at Heywood were generally very respectful to Mrs. Wells.

It's only because Mrs. Wells is a bar owner, otherwise Night City would be in turmoil.

"Go ahead, I'll introduce you to some friends later."

Ling Luxian nodded and walked towards Mrs. Wells with the gift.

Ling Luxian walked up to Mrs. Wells and greeted her politely: "Hello, Mrs. Wells. I am Jack's good friend, Tie Yu. I hope you are as happy every day as you are today."

As he spoke, he handed the Bible in his hand to Mrs. Wells.

Mrs. Wells took the Bible and a happy smile appeared on her face: "Thank you, child. This is the most special gift I have ever received!" She opened the cover and looked at the exquisite printing inside, and couldn't help but exclaimed in admiration.

"As long as you like it." Ling Luxian felt more at ease when he saw Mrs. Wells so happy.

Mrs. Wells looked Ling Luxian up and down, her eyes full of satisfaction.

"I've heard Jack talk about you. He was full of praise for you, and it's true when I saw you today."

"I don't deserve it. I'm just doing my best." Ling Luxian said modestly.

"Please come and visit often when you have time, young man," Mrs. Wells invited warmly.

"Of course, of course." Ling Luxian quickly agreed.

Mrs. Wells then said hello to the others and went off to chat with people she knew.

Jack patted Ling Luxian's shoulder and said, "Come on, I'll introduce you to some friends."

As he spoke, he brought Ling Luxian to a man and a woman.

The man was wearing a high-end suit and had a small mustache.

Through the rolled-up sleeves, you can see that both forearms are covered with tattoos.

His tough demeanor, tattoos, and high-end suits all indicate that he is a high-ranking member of a gang.

However, the gang leaders who appeared in the Wild Wolf Bar were obviously from the Valentino Gang.

The woman was dressed in standard punk style, with big sunglasses and short hair. Her forearms and calves were prosthetic.

In Ling Luxian's opinion, it will not be lower than the second-generation cybernetic body.

Jack introduced the two of them, "This is Pilot, the captain of our team. He's quite capable and is willing to spend money on equipment. He's even more so to me. We're as close as one."

The man patted Jack on the shoulder and said, "I feel relieved to see that you are doing well."

Jack then introduced Ling Luxian, "This is Gustavo Horta. We have been friends since childhood. Now he is pretty successful in the Valentino gang. The girl next to him is Martha Yang, Gustavo's girlfriend."
