August 2nd, at noon.
The sun hung high in the sky like a blazing fireball, scorching and intense, illuminating a cloudless expanse. Its brilliance was so overwhelming that it forced everyone to squint or look away.
Riverdale Bus Terminal.
Andrew Han, dressed in a brand-new short-sleeved shirt, stepped outside the terminal.
A sapphire-blue Porsche coupe had been waiting for quite some time. Gavin King approached, his smile broad and bright. "Andrew, you just got back from Sunfield Township? What made you want to travel out there? Last time you said you'd let me show you around Riverdale properly."
"Just had some business to take care of," Andrew replied with a faint smile.
While still on the bus, Gavin King had sent Andrew a flurry of WeChat messages, each accompanied by a red packet. Unable to refuse, Andrew had to reply—after all, he'd received so many gifts, it would be awkward not to respond.
"Business? Wait, Andrew, have you already gotten involved in that world?" Gavin King froze for a moment, then lowered his voice in astonishment.
"Just barely," Andrew said modestly.
Under the blazing sun, Gavin King's expression shifted slightly; his enthusiastic demeanor now carried a hint of respect and awe.
He had a vague understanding of the concept of the martial arts world.
He understood even more that those qualified to enter that world possessed formidable strength to deal with such things. From now on, the gap between himself and Andrew Han would be worlds apart.
Ken King, standing behind Gavin, hadn't heard clearly.
Ahem.
Gavin King grinned and took a deep breath, hurriedly pulling Ken King over. "Brother, this kid Ken has offended you several times. As his elder brother, I apologize and hope you'll forgive him."
Meanwhile.
He forcibly pressed Ken King's head down and bowed repeatedly, his attitude completely changed from before.
If Andrew Han was only full of potential before, now he was truly powerful—the two could not be compared.
"No need for that. Let's just let it go," Andrew Han said, waving his hand.
Hearing this, Gavin King was overjoyed and said repeatedly, "Brother, you are truly magnanimous. I thank you here. Whatever we do next, I'll follow your lead."
