Chapter 149 Didi Express for Lord of Heaven?
Hao Ning suddenly thought of a terrible thing: when he was fighting hard against the army crusading the Shang Dynasty in Creation of the Gods, Xiao Hong was dealing with Nezha. At that time, Xiao Hong’s fire burned Nezha’s face ashen. Although for some reason, Xiao Hong insisted that he had no impression at all, Nezha’s weird smile showed that probably he still had some impression about this matter, even felt resentful. Now the two gods were working in a project group. If they made excuses to fight, this one would throw out Universal Ring, and that one would set Samadhi True Fire. Hao Ning did not dare to think about it.

What was this called? When enemies met, their eyes were red.

Being lost in various fancies and conjectures, Hao Ning did not know how the conversation ended, nor did he know how Liu Shuai pulled him back. At first, the cause was only to save Zhou Yuan. He had thought that this matter would end when they saved Zhou Yuan’s soul. But it was like igniting a lead, which led to so many things.

This day was a muddy day. Having his mind stuffed with the karma Avalokitesvara said, Liu Shuai also did not know his joke to Nezha would make things so big. Seeing Hao Ning’s complexion not good, Liu Shuai felt guilty and didn’t know how to encourage. It was not until the afternoon that Lele notified them that Manager Hai would hold a project start-up meeting and asked them to go to the conference room.

Hao Ning’s mind was messy, and his head was almost about to explode. Listening to Lele, he stood up with a sneer and said, “Okay, did they start pretending? Will gods also hold the project start-up meeting before making waves?” After saying that, he acted as if he were Liu Hulan who gave up her life heroically, “D**n it! Go ahead!”

After that, Lele saw Hao Ning’s abnormal behavior and looked at Hao Ning strangely.

Hao Ning knew that Lele felt strange about his behavior, but at that time he was too upset to take so much care of anything else. After grabbing his hair several times, he grabbed Liu Shuai and said, “I can’t stand it. What the hell are these gods doing? Go! Let’s go and see what the hell they want to do! But do remember that today you have to be honest and if you tell him that I am Hongjun again…”

Speaking of this, Hao Ning pulled two leaves from the green radish on the table and sneered at Liu Shuai with the leaves in his hand. Liu Shuai thought of the power of Hao Ning’s “Flower-picking Finger”, quickly shrunk his neck, nodded with smiling and said, “Sure, sure!”

Seeing Liu Shuai acting like this, Hao Ning knew that he could not blame it all on Liu Shuai. He sighed and threw the leaves into the garbage can and said, “What Hongjun…”

“The Red Army?” Lele looked at Hao Ning curiously and carefully. “Hao Ning, was your grandfather a revolutionary? We didn’t know. Which Red Army was he in?”

“Hmm?” Listening to Lele, Hao Ning felt enlightened and said to Liu Shuai with a smile, “Alright. If there’s no other way, you could say that the Master Hongjun you said was actually the Master Red Army, the founding General of our country. Yes, my grandfather was a general of the Red Army, and I am a little Red Army. It was a misunderstanding, ha-ha.” Speaking of this, Hao Ning went to the conference room happily.

“…” Liu Shuai looked at Hao Ning with pity and whispered, “Big Brother, you know so little about gods’ things… It’s hard for you to deceive a mortal with this sentence. Are you going to use it to deceive a god?”

As soon as they entered the conference room, they found that there was only Xiao Hong and Nezha, neither Sister Li nor Manager Wen was there. Xiao Hong and Nezha were sitting there without talking to each other. Nezha was looking at his cell phone, while Xiao Hong was looking at his computer screen, typing or frowning from time to time. Needless to say, Xiao Hong was working on his “Wishes Scriptures”.

Having noticed Liu Shuai and Hao Ning coming in, Nezha stood up immediately and was about to speak. But Xiao Hong stopped his work, stood up and asked Hao Ning before Nezha, “Hao Ning, where is your friend Zhou Yuan?”

“Hmm?” Xiao Hong’s question made Hao Ning felt a little strange. First, Xiao Hong usually called Hao Ning Big Brother when he saw Hao Ning. This time, he directly called him by name. Although Hao Ning didn’t care about it, Xiao Hong’s performance was somehow strange. Second, Lele didn’t ask Zhou Yuan to come. Why did Xiao Hong ask for Zhou Yuan? When Hao Ning was about to ask, suddenly Xiao Hong blinked at him and glanced at Nezha. Hao Ning realized that something was going on. Anyway, in front of these strange things, Hao Ning believed more in Xiao Hong than Nezha who he didn’t know whether he was a friend or an enemy. He quickly smiled and nodded and said, “Stupid me. He’s just over there. I’ll call him now.”

“No,” Xiao Hong stopped Hao Ning, just smiled at the Lele following behind, “Little beauty, can you please bring Zhou Yuan in?”

Although Xiao Hong obviously had drank that tea today, and this smile was not like looking back smile with the best beautiful, it was also a young heroic smile. Lele had a crush at that moment. Opening her big eyes, she nodded hurriedly to say yes. When she was about to go out, Xiao Hong hurriedly pulled her back, with his warm and generous hands grasping Lele’s slightly sweating soft little hands. This sudden move made Lele’s heart beat faster.

“Sorry to bother you again, but this is some good tea from my hometown,” Xiao Hong continued with a smile, took out a paper bag like teabags and pointed at Nezha. “Manager Hai is a VIP to our company. We need to serve him with good things. Could you please make some tea for us by the way?”

As he spoke, he handed the bag of tea to the Lele. When the other hand of him touched Lele’s palm, Lele’s face turned redder. Without saying anything, she nodded and rushed out with her head bowed.

“Your hometown? Produce tea?” Hao Ning looked at Xiao Hong. Wasn’t this Great Saint Infant King’s hometown Flame Mountain? Did it also produce tea? Shouldn’t magma and charcoal be produced there? Thinking of Xiao Hong’s blink just now, Hao Ning didn’t ask any question.

Seeing that the door was closed, Nezha stood up and was about to call Hao Ning, “Hong…”

At that time Xiao Hong interrupted Nezha again and said, “Manager Hai, make yourself at home. Don’t call me Hong Tao. My name doesn’t sound good either. It seems that I should be a few years younger than you, so you can just call me Xiao Hong.”

He said this to Nezha with a shiny smile. Hao Ning thought with a laugh in his heart. According to the age, you were, of course, younger than him. Nezha was born in the Shang Dynasty, and you were not 300 years old until the Tang Dynasty.

“Whoever wants to call you. Don’t flatter yourself.” Nezha thought, but since Xiao Hong said so, it’s not good to speak it out and hurt his feelings.

Nezha knew what was going. Just when no one else was here, he had searched with his god sense, then already knew the details of this person in front of him. He knew that although this person was powerful, he was also hurt by his weapon a few days ago. But when he was fighting with this man in his heyday, he didn’t either win or lose. But looking back at Hao Ning, he felt that this man was more unpredictable. When the one named Zhou Yuan appeared before, he had no idea what kind of God he was. At that time, he only felt that the man had endless power, but that night there was a water dragon who was not here today. Looking at the bald man in front of him, though this man didn’t have any power, there always was some inexplicable familiarity. With so many amazing people around, Hao Ning was absolutely somebody. The most interesting thing was that when he closed his eyes and searched with his god sense, he could not find out the existence of this Hao Ning in front of him at all, as if the one had disappeared.

After thinking so much, Nezha did not know where to start at that moment, so he smiled and said to Xiao Hong, “Since you said so, I’ll call you Xiao Hong. I am Hai Shenglong, in fact, my true…”

“The real intention of your visit today is not only to invest,” said Xiao Hong, closing his computer, interrupting Nezha’s words again. He looked at the door of the conference room with a smile, as if he was waiting for something or someone, and continued, “What projects do you want Hao Ning, Liu Shuai, and our company to help you with?”

Wasn’t this Xiao Hong strange today? Hao Ning thought. Nezha tried to introduce himself for several times, but Xiao Hong changed the topic at every time as if he wouldn’t allow Nezha to tell his intention. Why? This was really useless. Today, Nezha came as promised, and the investment and projects were just the covers. The real purpose of him was to visit Hao Ning, the fake “Master Hongjun”. How could it be possible to stop him from telling his intention? Even if you can stop him now, how can you stop him this whole afternoon? Don’t piss off Nezha, or he would borrow the seawater from the East Sea to submerge the S City.

“Those projects are not important. Today I…” Nezha also found this Xiao Hong really somehow annoying. He went out of his way to find such a way to maintain long-term contact with Hao Ning and these guys. Who knew that Xiao Hong didn’t know good from bad and insisted on attending his meeting? It was OK if Xiao Hong just attended it, but he kept interrupting Nezha when talking about serious matters. If Nezha had such a temper like before, he would have fought with Xiao Hong fiercely.

“Thank you very much for your investment in our company today,” Xiao Hong continued with a smile, not humble, not exalted, not too warm. “But our company is an Internet company. You need to introduce your project first, so that Hao Ning and Liu Shuai can help you do it, otherwise…” Xiao Hong looked at Hao Ning slightly. “Otherwise, we won’t talk about any irrelevant matters, and we’ll have to leave. You can stay here by yourself.” After that, Xiao Hong looked at Hao Ning again and blinked his eyes.

Xiao Hong’s words were very heavy. There was a fierce light in Nezha’s eyes, and he held his fists tight. Hao Ning knew at first sight that Xiao Hong probably knew Nezha paid this visit with other intentions, but for some reason, Xiao Hong couldn’t let Nezha say anything at that time. And he just gave Hao Ning a wink, which was probably to let Hao Ning speak. Seeing that one of these two persons was at loggerheads, and the other one was calm and leisurely, Hao Ning said immediately, “Well, Manager Hai…”

Nezha listened to Hao Ning and looked at him respectfully, “Please.”

“Why don’t you introduce your project first?” Although Hao Ning did not know why Xiao Hong wanted to do this, but compared with Nezha, Xiao Hong was obviously on his side. Xiao Hong must be doing this with a purpose, so Hao Ning followed Xiao Hong’s instruction and said so.

As expected, just after Hao Ning said so, Nezha said immediately, “Since you said so, it must have interior meaning. I will briefly introduce our project requirements then.”

What’s the f**king interior meaning? Hao Ning thought happily that he did not know what the hell the two gods were doing. Anyway, don’t get himself fired.

“Do you know the Didi Express?” Nezha suddenly asked such a question, “When using it, you would know how many cars there are nearby, and you can call them to pick you up. That thing…”

“Hmm? It’s not a thing. It’s an app. We deal with the Internet, so of course, we know.” Hao Ning and Liu Shuai looked at each other. Who didn’t know Didi Express, the secret weapon to get a lift? Did Nezha want to develop a hail-car app for the Lord of Heaven? What? Not only Putuo Mountain had been listed, but also Lord of Heaven’s Nine-dragon Tambac Carriage would be sold by the wild kids in Yuxu Palace? Thinking of this Hao Ning could not help laughing. These gods didn’t stay well and accepted incense. Why do they always covet our human world’s technological products?

Of course, Nezha didn’t know that Hao Ning was having random thoughts again. He nodded his head and was about to continue. At that time, the door was opened. Zhou Yuan and Lele came in with a few cups of tea. Lele was sensible. Put down the cups and left. When leaving, she glanced at Xiao Hong secretly.

“Which God is looking for me?” Zhou Yuan put down his tea half-jokingly, looked at Xiao Hong and saw that Xiao Hong was looking at Nezha. Suddenly, his expression went somehow dignified, and he stopped greeting. Hao Ning thought: Right. Zhou Yuan had learned about Dao from Zhang Chi Hang so many times, and how could he not know Xiao Hong?

“Right. Come here. Here are some tea from my hometown,” Xiao Hong said with a smile. “You can’t buy it outside. Please taste it. It’s so refreshing, regulating your Qi and Spirit.” Said Xiao Hong and looked at Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan nodded to him and nodded to Hao Ning, with his eyes slanting to Nezha.
