Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

But that was because the Zhang Beixing from his previous life hadn't interfered.

This life, however, was different.

In this life, Zhang Beixing had gotten involved, and so much had happened.

There was no guarantee this matter wouldn't take an unexpected turn.

Listening to Zhang Beixing's words, Lin Siqi naturally understood what he meant.

So she put down the napkin she was using to wipe her mouth and said to Zhang Beixing, "This matter should be dealt with however it needs to be dealt with."

"After everything that has happened, if I don't go to see my father whom I haven't met in over twenty years, that would be unreasonable, wouldn't it?"

"I see." Zhang Beixing nodded in understanding.

Then he glanced at the time and realized that after their meal, it was already two or three in the afternoon.

Thinking that he had no classes that afternoon, Zhang Beixing wasn't in a hurry and chatted idly with Lin Siqi.

While chatting, Lin Siqi suddenly thought of something and asked Zhang Beixing, "Lao Zhang, what do you think about Sophia Zhou?"

"Sophia Zhou?"

Upon hearing the name from Lin Siqi, Zhang Beixing was taken aback for a moment.

He didn't quite understand why she was asking but, after thinking about it, he replied, "Sophia Zhou? She's a pretty nice girl—strong-willed, a good figure, and good-looking. Aside from being a bit slow-witted and simple-minded, there's nothing much wrong with her. What about her?"

"It's nothing, just curious, don't mind me."

Lin Siqi shook her head, her reply terse and vague.

Zhang Beixing raised an eyebrow, sensing something odd.

Although after being reborn, he had devoted himself entirely to training, that didn't mean he had no interest in other things besides training, nor did it mean he lacked emotional intelligence.

And now Lin Siqi's behavior was particularly strange.

Combining that with the fact that Lin Siqi had suddenly been inexplicably sulking at him not long ago, Zhang Beixing thought for a moment.

Then a ludicrous idea popped into his mind.

Lin Siqi... could she be jealous?

Once this thought emerged, it spread uncontrollably through Zhang Beixing's brain like wild grass.

No matter how hard Zhang Beixing tried to shake it off, he couldn't.

Just as Zhang Beixing was wondering whether to ask about it, Lin Pengfei, who had just settled the bill, returned. Seeing them chatting happily, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhang, Sister Qi, what are you chatting about so happily?"

With Lin Pengfei's interruption, the words on the tip of Zhang Beixing's tongue were forcibly swallowed back.

He shook his head. "Nothing much, just discussing some interesting topics with your sister."

"Oh, I see... So, what's our plan for the rest of the day?" Lin Pengfei asked, unsuspecting.

"Plan? I have none. How about you, Sister Qi?" Zhang Beixing looked at Lin Siqi.

Lin Siqi thought for a moment, then said, "This afternoon, I actually do have something. The stock I got last time is almost sold out. I was planning to get some more goods from the North China Food Factory."

Restocking? North China Food Factory?

Hearing Lin Siqi's words, Lin Pengfei paused.

Then he thought of Lin Siqi's part-time job at the school and realized this was an opportunity for him to show his initiative.

So he volunteered, "Sister, if you need to restock, I have access to a better supplier. The prices are cheap, the quality is good, and they offer a wide variety. If you buy in large quantities, they even deliver to your doorstep. It's over in the suburbs. How about I take you to check it out?"

Upon hearing this, both Zhang Beixing and Lin Siqi took notice.

Zhang Beixing was interested in the home delivery, while Lin Siqi was focused on the cheap prices and good quality.

So the two of them exchanged a look and reached a consensus.

They said directly to Lin Pengfei, "Let's go!"

Seeing their response, Lin Pengfei chuckled. "Alright, then let's get going."

Saying that, he started up the sedan and drove the two of them toward the suburbs.

The car traveled for a while and stopped in a sparsely populated area.

Shishi city lacked mountains and seas, but near its suburbs, there were some rolling hills that led to the neighboring mountain city.

This suburban area was rather isolated, with no villages or shops nearby. Few private cars passed through; most of the traffic consisted of large logistics trucks.

As a result, there were many warehouses around. Most of them, however, were closed.

This was normal. Most people who owned warehouses here had fixed sales channels. The goods stored here were simply for storage or transit and rarely sold directly to the public.

So people could hardly buy anything good here; naturally, few people came.

Lin Pengfei got out of the car and moved aside to call the supplier over.

Meanwhile, while Lin Pengfei was on the phone and they waited for the supplier, Zhang Beixing and Lin Siqi casually strolled around.

As they were strolling, a stern voice suddenly called out, "Hey, little kid, where are your parents? Who let you walk away from them? Come with me, I'll take you to find your parents!"

The voice was stern.

One couldn't help but picture a serious man's face upon hearing it.

When Zhang Beixing heard the commotion, he became curious and looked over.

He saw, not far away in a small square's sandbox, a porcelain-skinned little girl, about four or five years old, sitting and playing with sand.
