Chapter 88 Meeting the Old Captain

The old captain was still wearing his burnt purple leather jacket, and it seemed that he was destined to become Gloria's benefactor.

"Hey, isn't this our busy man? How come you have time to come to my place?"

As the old captain spoke, he walked towards Ling Luxian. However, he accidentally slipped on a small stone and fell to the ground.

"puff……"

Ling Luxian burst out laughing.

Just now he said he was a noble man, but now he kneels down. It seems he is such a kneeling person.

"My son, why did you give your father such a big gift?"

The old captain quickly stood up and dusted off his body.

"Go to hell!" The old captain raised his middle finger. "I am your father. What do you want to do here?"

Ling Lu crossed his arms and looked at the old captain with a smug look on his face. "Let me tell you, I just recorded it. I advise you to speak properly."

Hearing this, the old captain suddenly panicked.

The head can be cut off and the blood can be shed, but the black history cannot be kept.

"Godfather, delete it quickly. Just tell me if you have anything to say." The old captain climbed onto Ling Luxian's shoulders, hooked his neck and shook him.

This was also because the two had a good relationship. If it were someone else, the old captain would have beaten that big-faced guy up long ago.

"Stop, stop, stop shaking. Your brain is going to go haywire."

Ling Luxian hurriedly stopped him. He was about to vomit from shaking her, and her stomach was churning.

The old captain quickly loosened his arms, thinking that he might be vomited into his car.

"I have deleted it." Ling Lu straightened his still dizzy head and said.

Know when to stop and know when to stop when you are ahead. There should be a limit to joking. It would be annoying if people keep taking advantage of others.

The old captain leaned against the sports car beside him, twitched his chin, and said, "That's my sister-in-law, right? If I'm right, you're going to do something for her today, right?"

When Gloria heard the old captain call her sister-in-law, her face turned red.

Ling Luxian did not deny it and said, "This is Gloria. I forced her to leave for some reason. Now I want to do something for you."

"Me?" The old captain pointed at his nose and said in disbelief, "The people working here are all rough men. Are you sure you want her to work here?"

"Go to hell." Ling Luxian threw a cigarette to the old captain and said, "I didn't ask her to come to your place to be a mechanic. She wanted to be a middleman and wanted you to take care of her a little."

"Middleman?" The old captain stroked his chin and said, "Okay, but being a middleman is not that easy. First of all, you need connections and be well-informed. I'm a little skeptical. Can she handle it?"

After that, he nudged Ling Luxian's waist with his elbow and whispered in his ear: "You don't want to use your reputation to help her find a way out, do you? I have to remind you, don't be fooled."

"Don't worry." Ling Luxian said as he put his arm around his shoulder, "She's not that kind of person."

The old captain may not be able to judge things accurately, but he is very good at judging people.

After looking Gloria up and down carefully, he felt that she could be trusted.

So he walked up to Gloria, stretched out his hand, and said, "Meet Muammar Reyes. My friends on the street call me the old captain."

Gloria also extended her hand and shook his, "I'm Gloria, please give me your guidance in the future."

The old captain narrowed his eyes slightly, "Ms. Gloria, you were from the company before, right?"

"what?"

Gloria was slightly stunned when she heard this, not knowing what he meant by asking this.

Of course the old captain was doing this for Ling Luxian's own good. You have to know that company dogs only care about money and not people, and they are used to lying in front of others.

He didn't want his good friend to be deceived by a bad woman.

Moreover, the old captain did notice that Gloria had an extraordinary aura.

Gloria was stunned for a moment, then opened her mouth to answer.

"There's not much to say, actually. I'm not really employed by the company. I just worked as a support staff at the medical center for a while."

There was nothing to hide about his own experience, so he told it all.

Ling Luxian also hurried over to smooth things over, pretending to laugh out loud, and said, "Hahaha, old captain, you don't think she's a corporate dog, do you? She lives in H4, a super skyscraper. Have you ever seen a corporate dog so poor that he lives in a tube-shaped building?"

"Tsk~" the old captain curled his lips, "Super skyscrapers are all tube buildings, so what are those in Taipingzhou?"

Ling Luxian ignored him and continued, "She did study in the academy run by the company. But you also quit the company, so you must know that without connections, your internship would definitely be rejected."

“So is this one.”

The old captain couldn't help but be amazed. He had never seen Ling Luxian introduce others so talkatively. This guy was the kind of sultry guy who would not open his mouth unless he could.

Hey, one foot has sunk into the grave called love, right? The sour smell of love is coming straight to my nose.

"So..." Ling Luxian spread his hands, "She went to work in the medical center in the city center as a logistics staff. And now, she is also paying for her son to study at Arasaka Academy, hoping that he will become a leader in Arasaka Company."

'How stupid. '

Hearing this, the old captain felt sorry for the woman. This is definitely a cycle. Without connections and strength, she is destined to be a low-level person for life.

This damn cyber age is no longer an age where hard work is rewarded. Those veterans begging on the streets, don’t they work hard? Those former special forces personnel who have become cyber psychopaths, don’t they work hard?

Because he had worked in the company and was familiar with their practices, the old captain hated the company from the bottom of his heart.

'Wait. 'The old captain found the bright spot.

"But with the salary at the medical center, you can't pay for Arasaka's tuition, right?" asked the old captain.

The old captain is not an ambiguous person, especially when it comes to serious matters, he always says what he thinks.

However, this straightforward personality is not annoying.

"Of course, that's why she stole the prosthetics from those corpses and sold them secretly. Don't be fooled by her gentle appearance now, she actually does quite a big business and has loyal customers." Ling Lu replied.

The loyal customer is obviously Mann. Gloria and Mann are also old acquaintances. Maybe most of Mann's prosthetic body was provided by Gloria.

Ling Luxian revealing her secrets in front of outsiders made Gloria feel a little inferior.

Stealing prosthetics is illegal, and Gloria knew that what she did was not very decent. She didn't expect Ling Luxian to tell others about it, which made her a little sad.

"Silly girl, if you don't talk about this, with the old captain's character, it won't be done."

Looking at Gloria like this, how could Ling Luxian not know what she was thinking?
