Full-time Swordsman

"Who are you? Someone, come! A thief has broken in!"

After Zhao Baige accidentally bumped into a man's arms, her first reaction when she saw him was not romance or blushing, but she quickly broke free and shouted to catch the thief.

Upon hearing the news, the pharmacy clerks rushed over in a hurry, and some of them were ready to run out to report to the police.

Seeing this, Lin Jichen remembered that he was still wearing a camouflage mask on his face, and quickly took it off.

"It's me."

Zhao Baige chuckled, and then complained: "Boss, why did you pretend to be a bad guy? I thought there was a thief in the store."

"Oh, it's a long story."

Lin Jichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his hand to let others go back to work, and then told Zhao Baige what happened outside.

After hearing this, Zhao Baige's expression turned bitter, and he complained: "Why are they still guarding? I'm almost annoyed. I haven't left the store for a long time."

Lin Jichen said with a smile: "If you want to go out, go out. No one dares to do anything to you when you walk around the city."

"No, even if they won't kill me, they will always be around me. As long as I don't agree to their request, they will always follow me. It's so annoying."

Zhao Baige complained.

"What are they following you for?" Lin Jichen asked knowingly.

"It's just... they want to dig me to another guild to be an alchemist... But boss, don't worry, I will never go. I just like to stay here!"

Zhao Baige was afraid that Lin Jichen would doubt him, so he quickly expressed his loyalty.

Lin Jichen smiled and said, "Why are you so nervous? I never doubted you."

Zhao Baige smiled foolishly and said embarrassedly, "I was afraid that you would be unhappy."

"You won't leave, why should I be unhappy? On the contrary, I am very happy to see your attitude. Come, come in, I have something to tell you."

After Lin Jichen finished speaking, he went to Zhao Baige's alchemy room without saying anything.

Zhao Baige followed obediently, but she was wondering if the boss was still worried and was going to talk to her about a salary increase...

However, when they entered the alchemy room, Lin Jichen never mentioned the matter of job hopping, but asked her to refine a furnace of sixth-grade elixir.

Zhao Baige did not hesitate, and began to enter a serious state on the spot, sitting in front of the alchemy furnace and concentrating on refining the elixir.

This alchemy furnace is still the exquisite phoenix-patterned furnace that Lin Jichen gave her at the beginning. It has become Zhao Baige's closest companion.

Lin Jichen was right beside her, watching her skilled alchemy skills and confident eyes.

She was completely different from the ignorant and inexperienced Xiaobai who couldn't even make the most basic and simple rejuvenation pill.

Zhao Baige was completely immersed in the world of alchemy during this year's game time.

She loved this job and regarded it as her lifelong pursuit. As long as she had time, she would stay in the alchemy room and work hard to make pills.

Lin Jichen was also very indulgent to her. No matter how many pills she had ruined or how many medicinal materials she had wasted before, he never minded.

With Lin Jichen's unconditional trust in her and the unlimited supply of medicinal materials, Zhao Baige's alchemy talent was gradually discovered.

Today's Zhao Baige is no longer the same as before, and has the appearance of the alchemy king of the past.

Lin Jichen was sure that if he continued like this, Zhao Baige would definitely become a great master of alchemy, and the speed would be much faster than in his previous life!

After an hour of refining, a furnace of high-quality sixth-grade elixirs came out freshly.

Zhao Baige picked up the elixir and put it in front of Lin Jichen with a smile, saying, "Boss, how do you think this furnace of Eight Treasures Pills are?"

Lin Jichen took it and carefully examined it, praising it, "Very good, it completely exceeds the standard, the quality is very high, it's really great."

Zhao Baige smiled sweetly when she heard Lin Jichen's praise.

She loved to hear Lin Jichen's praise for her, and other people's praise for her didn't taste that way.

Because Zhao Baige knew that other people's praise was just flattery or surprise and admiration.

But Lin Jichen was different. She and Lin Jichen were both teachers and friends. When she first started refining elixirs, Lin Jichen not only acted as her boss, but also her teacher.

Lin Jichen would often come to teach her how to make pills when he was free, correct her deficiencies, and teach her everything he knew.

This was also one of the main reasons why Zhao Baige was able to become a sixth-grade alchemist in such a short time. With Lin Jichen's guidance, she avoided many detours.

Now hearing Lin Jichen's praise, it was like a stupid student becoming the pride of the teacher.

After Lin Jichen finished speaking, he put down the pill, sighed, and said: "Baige, I have to tell you something very important, you may not be able to continue like this."

Zhao Baige's smile froze instantly.

Her first reaction was that Lin Jichen wanted to drive her away?

Or someone bribed him to let him take her away.Trade to other guilds.

Zhao Baige's expression instantly panicked.

Sales contracts are too common in capital operations, and her contract is in Lin Jichen's hands.

Lin Jichen wants her to go wherever he wants, and she has no say, unless she can afford the sky-high penalty for breach of contract.

"Boss, are you going to sell me..."

Zhao Baige looked nervous and pitifully at Lin Jichen.

"Ah?" Lin Jichen looked up, not understanding what she meant.

Zhao Baige thought that Lin Jichen had been guessed by her, so she acted like this on purpose, and she immediately grabbed Lin Jichen's arm and begged pitifully.

"Boss, please don't sell me out, I don't want to go to other guilds, I just want to stay here, as long as you don't sell me out, you can ask me to do anything, I can reduce my salary, or... I don't want any salary, please..."

At this time, Zhao Baige felt like a poor puppy that was sold by its owner, sadness and pain surged to the tip of her nose, and her eyes instantly turned red.

Here, alchemy is a pleasure, she likes to help the boss make money while making alchemy, which makes her feel that her ability is the most fulfilling thing.

She doesn't want to be traded to other guilds and become a tool for strangers to make money.

She likes to stay here because there is Lin Jichen, a good boss and teacher who teaches her, indulges her and accompanies her.

In addition to alchemy and helping to manage the pharmacy, Zhao Baige also visits the Eight Desolations Forum every day.

I have seen many alchemist players complain about how bad their treatment is and how bad the boss's attitude is.

Zhao Baige compared them with Lin Jichen and felt that Lin Jichen was simply the best boss in the world!

She often read reports about Lin Jichen on the forum in her spare time.

She saw all kinds of news about him being in the limelight, saw him become the best master in the Eight Desolations, saw him defeat any enemy no matter how strong he was, and so on.

Over time, Zhao Baige, in addition to gratitude and loyalty to Lin Jichen, actually had a girl's admiration for him...

Looking at Zhao Baige's anxious and tearful appearance, Lin Jichen was stunned for a moment.

What's going on? Who said he was going to sell her?
