Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Finding a Job
"Bastard! What are you looking at? Put away those filthy eyes!" Cheng Tianxue said coldly and with disgust as she caught Zhang Xiaohao's gaze.
"Xue'er, I think you need to understand something. How would you know I was looking at you if you weren't looking at me?" Zhang Xiaohao said seriously.
"You're just a hooligan!" With that, Cheng Tianxue, puffing with anger, grabbed a pillow and hurled it at him.
Zhang Xiaohao caught the pillow in his hands, nestled it against his chest, and, feeling blissful, sniffed its fragrance before saying, "It smells so good!"
"You bastard!" Cheng Tianxue roared.
"Xiao Xue, what's going on below? Why is there a yellow spot?" Zhang Jing suddenly frowned and pointed to the middle of Cheng Tianxue's pants.
"Ah! Xiao Jing, you also have a yellow spot below!" Cheng Tianxue exclaimed in shock.
Following that, both of them exchanged a glance, then looked at Zhang Xiaohao with a murderous intent, letting out an earth-shattering scream.
With their hands covering their crotches, Cheng Tianxue and Zhang Jing quickly rushed toward the restroom.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiaohao shrugged his shoulders innocently, indicating that he really had nothing to do with any of it.
An hour later.
Cheng Tianxue and Zhang Jing came out with cold faces and stood at the door, cornering Zhang Xiaohao completely.
"Zhang Xiaohao, tell me, what's the deal with the yellow stains on me and Xiao Jing? Did you do this?"
"And another thing! Why do both of our butts have bright red handprint marks? Did you hit us?"
"Can you stop looking at me with such suspicion? I, Zhang Xiaohao, as a man standing eight feet tall, am upright and proper with conservative thoughts. How could I commit such indecent acts? Last night, both of you were drunk as lords, yelling and mucking about, doing shameless things, and you both boasted that you were going to bed with me! Fortunately, my thoughts were firm, and my character is excellent! I didn't let you succeed, otherwise, I would have lost my virtue to you two by now!" Zhang Xiaohao bluffed with his eyes wide open.
"You're talking nonsense! Xiao Jing and I are not that kind of people!" Cheng Tianxue countered.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you! I won't explain," Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Crap! Today is the last day of external recruitment at Bai Xue Cosmetics Company, and I still have to oversee the whole process. It's almost ten o'clock, and if I don't go back soon, Xiao Bai will chew me up!" Suddenly, Cheng Tianxue looked at the wall clock and screamed.
"Ah! I'm late too. The Chief is going to scold me again," Zhang Jing also cried out in panic.
After saying that, the two women picked up their belongings and hurriedly walked outside.
"Wait a minute!" As they were about to leave, Zhang Xiaohao quickly spoke up.
"What do you want, Zhang Xiaohao? You bastard, I warn you, you'd better stay away from me. Don't think that just because we're legally married, you can do whatever you want!" Cheng Tianxue said with loathing.
"Xue'er, I'm out of money. Could you lend me some?" Zhang Xiaohao asked awkwardly.
Seeing Cheng Tianxue's face turn dark, Zhang Xiaohao added, "Ten thousand is too much, a thousand will do! If not a thousand, a hundred should be fine, right? At least let me have some breakfast, huh?"
"Zhang Xiaohao, as a man standing tall and mighty, how could you have the nerve to ask a woman for money? Shame on you for even saying it, don't you feel embarrassed? To think that I, Cheng Tianxue, with my exceptional intelligence, and heavenly beauty, possess a figure all other women would kill for, and yet, I ended up with a loser like you for a husband! It's like I'm cursed for eight generations! Let me advise you one thing, don't make me look down on you, despise you, again! You'd better find yourself a decent job!" Having said her piece, Cheng Tianxue sashayed away without turning back, her enticing behind moving with each step.
"Being a man, you've lost all face for men! Zhang Xiaohao, if I were you, I'd just jump off from here and save the world the bother of dealing with you!" Zhang Jing delivered her lethal blow, then left with disgust.
"Damn it! To be looked down on by two women! You both wait, how dare you scorn me! I'll make sure you kneel on the ground and lick my boots!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. To think that he, Zhang Xiaohao, had completed so many SSS-level dangerous missions, each with a minimum commission of ten million, with some even reaching hundreds of millions to a billion.
Aside from providing for his basic needs, all those outrageous commissions were confiscated by his so-called Master Old Ghost!
Zhang Xiaohao had tried to rebel! But every enthusiastic attempt ended with him getting a beating! This vicious cycle repeated itself, and even now, Zhang Xiaohao still had no idea about the true extent of Master Old Ghost's freakish strength.
Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaohao entered the bathroom, inhaling the lingering light fragrance in the air, he took a comfortable warm shower, put on his clothes, picked up his room key, and headed for the complimentary breakfast provided by the hotel.
Any decent, high-grade hotel offers three meals a day, whether you eat them or not isn't their concern.
Entering the free restaurant provided by the hotel, Zhang Xiaohao went straight for a container and filled an entire rice cooker with tea eggs. He also grabbed some dough sticks and several hot cups of soy milk, leaving the staff gaping in amazement.
"Holy crap! Who is this guy? A starving ghost reincarnated? Getting so many tea eggs, isn't he afraid of choking?"
"I bet he's some gigolo kept by a rich woman, coming here early in the morning just to freeload a meal!"
No sooner had Zhang Xiaohao left, the restaurant staff began speaking disdainfully.
...
After checking out, Zhang Xiaohao thought proudly while eating his tea eggs, "A smart man never starves, no matter where he goes!"
Recalling what Cheng Tianxue said before she left the room, the more Zhang Xiaohao thought about it, the angrier he got. To think of himself as the mighty War God, one of the top international assassins, a man who intimidates the underworld as the strongest there is!
The very mention of his War God alias could make the queen of Country Y burst into tears! Those sons of bitches at the M country's special service bureau would turn pale at the thought! As for Country R, that so-called Emperor was damn near ready to kneel and worship him as an ancestor!
The very first time he humbly asked a woman for money—his own wife, no less—he was despised.
And she even had the audacity to tell him to get a proper job—how ridiculous!
"Find a decent job, huh? Cheng Tianxue, just you wait, I'll make your jaw drop!" Zhang Xiaohao said earnestly.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Zhang Xiaohao's head as he remembered something Cheng Tianxue mentioned as she was leaving.
Hosting a job fair? Could it be that her company is hiring? With this in mind, Zhang Xiaohao's eyes lit up, and he said confidently, "Cheng Tianxue, here I come!"
Having said that, Zhang Xiaohao strode confidently toward Bai Xue Cosmetics Company.
