Chapter 775
Shirley was very grateful for their aid; she gave them both a bow to express her gratitude.
“No need to thank us. It’s all in a day’s work.” Leon smiled. He never expected Shirley to catch up with them just to
thank them.
“Please, I really want to repay the two of you for your help. I want to buy you lunch tomorrow to thank you. for this.
Will you be free?” Shirley asked rather sheepishly, her eyes glimmering with anticipation.
“There’s no need…” Leon shook his head. He could tell that Shirley was a poor but hardworking college student and
did not want her to spend her hard–earned money on him.
“But…” Shirley was insistent.

the future,” Ariel said, smiling. Shirley’s integrity and kindness had touched her, and she could not help feeling fond
of this hardworking young girl.
“Oh…alright.” Shirley was disappointed, to say the least.
“Shirley, this is my name card. If there’s anything I can help you with in the future, feel free to give me a call. “After
a moment’s contemplation, Ariel finally decided to give Shirley her contact.
“Alright, thank you.” Shirley tucked the name card away, smiling. Now that she had Ariel’s contact, she could one
day be able to get in touch with Leon and Ariel, and she would get the chance to treat them to lunch.
All her disappointment dissipated at this realization, and a smile spread across her face.
“Well, goodbye then. Hope to see you two soon.” Shirley bade them farewell and left.
After watching Shirley’s retreating figure getting further and further, Ariel finally turned to gaze at Leon with a
strange look.
“Why are you staring at me like that, Ariel? Is there something on my face?” Leon touched his face. quizzically.
“Leon, I’m just wondering how you, a penniless, nameless orphan, managed to get someone as powerful as Young
Master Javner to apologize to you? What’s happening?” Ariel said rather incredulously as she recalled what had
happened.
Before Leon left Elegante Group, they had worked together for a long time and thus, she thought she knew him
very well.
However, now, after just a couple of months of not seeing him, she suddenly realized that Leon had changed and
that she did not know this man anymore.
“Well…I got into some conflict with the president of Acme Corp a few days ago and punished him for what he had
done. Perhaps Young Master Javner recognized me and did not dare to cross me, so that’s why he chose to

apologize to me,” Leon replied. He did not know where to start explaining the events a few days ago, so he gave
Ariel just a brief explanation instead.
“Oh!” Ariel gasped. She knew that Leon was an exceptional martial artist, and she would not be surprised to learn
that Young Master Javner had apologized to Leon out of fear of his power.
However, her gut was telling her that things were not that simple, but she could not seem to put her finger on what
was wrong.
“Even though you’re a great fighter, Leon, but martial arts isn’t going to bring you anywhere in this modern society.
Please be careful in the future, and don’t let this come back to bite you…” Ariel said solemnly.
“Don’t worry, I know some basic self–defense now, and I’ll easily put up a fight.” Leon smiled.
“Alright, alright, don’t be too arrogant!“
