Elf, I am really a farmer

In the room with a slightly solemn atmosphere, Zhou Zhen sat there quietly, knowing in his heart that all the previous preparations were enough and it was time to reveal his true intentions.

He thought to himself that things had come to this point, and if he didn't speak up now, it would be even more inappropriate to find an opportunity later.

Although he also understood that revealing his true feelings at this moment might be risky, if he accidentally angered Wen Qi, it would be hard to say whether he could escape unscathed.

But this was a task assigned to him by his father after all. No matter how scared he was, he had to do it.

Before coming, he had repeatedly practiced in his mind how to open his mouth, but when it really came to this point, he felt as if his throat was stuck by a fishbone. His lips opened slightly, but he couldn't utter a word.

He was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his eyes were full of anxiety and helplessness, and his hands were unconsciously clenched together, his knuckles turned slightly white from the force.

Wen Qi saw Zhou Zhen's embarrassment and guessed that he must be hiding something.

Thinking of the gift Zhou Zhen had given him before, Wen Qi was the first to break the silence.

His voice was gentle and steady, with a hint of concern in his eyes, and he said:

"Boss Zhou, don't be anxious, just take your time to talk about anything.

As long as it is what you said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you.

If it is really impossible, I will tell you directly that at most I will ask you to leave. I will not do anything to you because of your requests, you can rest assured."

As Wen Qi spoke, he leaned forward slightly, placing his hands casually on the table, his eyes never leaving Zhou Zhen, as if he wanted to give him some comfort and reassurance.

When Zhou Zhen heard Wen Qi say this, he breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced:

"Luckily I have his guarantee. Even if he is not satisfied with what I say later, I don't have to worry about completely angering him. The worst that can happen is that I can just leave."

He quickly reached out to pick up the water cup. Because he was still a little panicked, his hands were shaking slightly, and the water cup hit the table with a slight "ding" sound.

He brought the water cup to his mouth and took a big gulp, trying to calm his nervous and flustered mood.

After drinking the water, he gently put down the cup, wiped the corners of his mouth with his hand, took a deep breath, looked up at Wen Qi, his eyes were filled with gratitude, and his voice was trembling slightly as he said:

"Boss Wen, I am so grateful for your words. In fact, besides giving you Hua Beibei, I also have something else to ask of you this time."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, secretly observing Wen Qi's expression. Seeing that Wen Qi was looking at him calmly, he mustered up the courage to continue:

“As you know, in the Pokémon breeding community, competition for resources is extremely fierce, especially for some rare resources.

For example, high-level energy cubes are available on the market, but they are difficult to obtain.

I came here this time to ask you, do you have that special energy block? The kind that can accelerate the growth of Pokémon and has a good effect on Pokémon above the King level? "

As Zhou Zhen spoke, he leaned forward slightly, with a hint of expectation and a little uneasiness in his eyes. He rubbed his hands unconsciously under the table, hoping that Wen Qi could give him a satisfactory answer.

Wen Qi frowned slightly, thinking to himself:

"Sure enough, they sent me Hua Beibei for a purpose. The Zhou family is really calculating. It seems that they should know that I have life energy. Even if those people who came before were not sent by them, they are probably related to them.

Now you are so polite and tactful, you must know that you can't beat me, so you want to use gentle means to achieve your goal. "

He was silent for a moment, his eyes became serious, and he looked at Zhou Zhen and said slowly:

"Boss Zhou, what is this special energy block you're talking about? You'd better tell me clearly."

After Wen Qi finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms over his chest, and looked at Zhou Zhen quietly, waiting for his response.

At this time, the atmosphere in the room became more solemn.

Zhou Zhen sat there, knowing in his heart that after all the preparations with Wen Qi, now was the time to make clear his true intentions.

He thought to himself that if he continued to be evasive and vague, the conversation would probably go on forever, and he really didn't have that much time and energy to waste.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen made up his mind, gritted his teeth, and decided not to hesitate any longer.

He straightened up suddenly, a look of determination flashed in his eyes, he raised his voice a little, spoke a little faster, and said eagerly and clearly:

"Boss Wen, let me get this straight. What I want to ask is, do you have any energy cubes with life energy?

I have an urgent need for it. If you are willing to provide it, we are willing to pay a high price for it. The conditions are negotiable."

After saying that, he stared at Wen Qi's face nervously, his eyes full of anticipation and uneasiness. Fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead. His hands subconsciously clenched the corners of his clothes tightly, and his knuckles turned white.

He leaned forward greatly, as if he wanted to convey his eagerness and sincerity to Wen Qi through this posture, and he only wanted to catch even the slightest clue from the other's subtle changes in expression.

When Wen Qi heard Zhou Zhen's straightforward words, his heart sank.

He fell silent for a moment, his brows tightly locked together, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, and then revealed deep vigilance and anger.

He was certain in his heart that Zhou Zhen must be related to those previous attackers who coveted life energy and had intentions against him.

In an instant, Wen Qi felt an impulse in his heart, and he wanted to take Zhou Zhen down immediately.

But as soon as this thought came to his mind, he quickly calmed down, and his mind raced like lightning.

He knew very well that the power behind Zhou Zhen should not be underestimated, and it might be an organization with a strong background.

Even if he could subdue Zhou Zhen now, he would not be able to fundamentally eliminate the hidden danger of life energy exposure.

Moreover, Zhou Zhen is so confident at such a young age, and he said before that it was his father's intention, which shows that his status in the family is not low.

If we really get rid of him, we will definitely have an everlasting feud with the forces behind him.

If the other party were to become desperate and spread the news that he possessed life energy, it would cause enormous trouble and the consequences would be disastrous.

Wen Qi leaned back in his chair, his brows still furrowed, his eyes revealing solemnity and worry, his fingers unconsciously tapped on the armrests, making a rhythmic "tapping" sound, and the expression on his face changed constantly, sometimes angry, sometimes helpless.
