Chapter 117 - Going For A Game Of Golf
"Hello, Mr. Zhang." he sounded familiar. But Zhang Qin Feng still had difficulty remembering who this voice belonged to. Since it was a withheld number, it was impossible to be Robert.
This left him with a few other guesses.
The receptionist from the hotel or someone he talked to when he arrived in the Han Country. The delay in Zhang Qin Feng's response made the caller noticed that his call to Zhang Qin Feng was done thoughtlessly.
In that instant, he quickly added another sentence before Zhang Qin Feng feels offended.
"This is Howard. I hope you don't mind me getting your contact from the front desk through some bribing. Are you convenient to talk?" the caller introduced himself again. It seems that being good-looking and resourceful helped in getting something he wants.
"Oh... It's actually Mr. Howard. Sorry for not recognizing your voice at first. It was an honor for me to get a call from you privately. How may I help you, Mr. Howard?" Zhang Qin Feng replied. Knowing that this person is someone he knew this morning gets rid of some of his suspicions.
[Toot. Advising the user to practice caution while having a conversation with this individual. The manner of his speech and tone was too stable as if he was an operative]
Stein's reminder comes to him at an unexpected time. It seems that the system was still monitoring his surrounding silently behind him.
'I'll take note of it.' Zhang Qin Feng replied.
"I'll apologize first in case what I did was offensive. Please let me know if it's alright for me to continue." Howard said. He seems accustomed to the practice of the culture of the people from Dongcheng, and even his speech was pleasant. Each of his words sounds understanding and apologetic, making it hard for the one he get in touch with to get angry.
"Please don't mind about this. If it wasn't because I am occupied by some of my own business, I might be giving you a call in the morning. How may I help you, Mr. Howard?" Zhang Qin Feng replied. Although he felt suspicious for Howard to get in touch with him privately, it was far off from the need to get angry.
In business, an opportunity was there to be grabbed and not asked. If Zhang Qin Feng could understand this much, needless to say, that Howard knew that too. Perhaps there's a reason he talked to Zhang Qin Feng this morning.
"Two days later, on Saturday. Do you have free time in the morning? I would like to invite you to a game of golf with me and my partner. I believe that there's a benefit of making a friend with Mr. Zhang." Howard's answer was direct, but it wasn't offensive.
"Saturday... Since it was an invitation from Mr. Howard, of course, I'll have to make a time to come. I would be happy to join. Please count me in." Zhang Qin Feng agreed without further consideration.
"Hahaha, that's great. I like your style, Mr. Zhang. Shall we meet at this Saturday morning them?" Howard laughed as he was delighted his invitation for a game of golf was accepted by Zhang Qin Feng instantly.
"Sure. I'll see you in the morning on Saturday." Zhang Qin Feng added.
"Great."

[The system has a concern that needed the user to clarify]
Stein's single-word sentence came after Zhang Qin Feng returned to his room and unfastened the tie that suffocates him around the neck.
'Yes.' he answered the system's call after taking a seat on the sofa provided in his room.
[The system would like to ask why the user has a plan for this Saturday? Can the user explain the reason behind accepting the invitation from the individual named "Howard" without understanding him first?]
Stein asked. The system could come up with a hundred answers to Zhang Qin Feng's decision but not why he accepted the invitation without a second thought.
'There's actually nothing much to be considered. Try asking yourself, Stein. For what reason a person has to do others a favor just to get your contact details? I think this explained why there's nothing much to be considered when Howard extends his invitation out."
"He won't try to reach out to me if he sees nothing from me. Of course, we still have to be careful in front of this snake. Make sure you put him in priority on Saturday to see what kind of secret he had in his sleeve. Let's hope it was just an invitation to do business together." Zhang Qin Feng said.
[IS there a plan, user? Your return to the hotel today seems to be a little out of time]
The system asked. It was around four in the afternoon, just after the teatime and few hours before dinner. It can be said that Zhang Qin Feng has no other program in his schedule right now.
'Yes.' Zhang Qin Feng nodded. After changing into a comfortable set of clothing, he seems eager to get out of the hotel again.
'Bring up the mapping function. let's get out and have a walk around us to see what kind of lifestyle the people enjoyed over here.' Zhang Qin Feng chuckled and left the hotel in a casual appearance.
His first visit was to the nearby supermarket. After discreetly packed some of the food items before storing them into his Dimensional Storage. Additionally, he made sure that he expanded his food option this time.
Right at 10pm night, Zhang Qin Feng traveled to the post-apocalypse and left the food product in the kitchen. He would try to make something out of them as a surprise tomorrow. The sound of him arriving was noticed by Satella, but she kept staying on the bed as if she's expecting some surprises.
Moments later, the door into the room was gently opened as Zhang Qin Feng sneaked inside. Gently adjusting her hair to the gap between her ears, Zhang Qin Feng gave her a kiss on her lips.
"You've come?" Satella meekly hugged his waist while she's still lying on the bed.
"En." Zhang Qin Feng answered. They were getting active again that night. Since there's nothing much for him to do until Alice contacted him on Monday morning, Zhang Qin Feng decides to stay here until it's time to go for a golf game.
