25: Chapter 25 Part-time Security Guard

And so, under the personal escort of the Northern United Zone's Three-Star General, Lin Heng quickly arrived at the school.

When the crowd saw this scene, their eyebrows twitched slightly.

Good heavens!

With such a grand display, who could this be?

However, upon seeing the person who had come down from above, they didn't seem shocked at all.

What shocked them was that the other party had only been gone for a short while, yet they were already being sent back!

"It's truly a pity. You clearly could have achieved something greater, but I still respect your choice."

After getting out of the car, Lin Zhengbei held Lin Heng's hand, reluctant to part.

Lin Heng just smiled and nodded in response.

"It's fine. We'll probably be in contact quite a bit in the future. Just take care of things then; otherwise, the previous incident wouldn't have happened."

At these words, Lin Zhengbei's mouth twitched slightly.

He really hoped there would be fewer incidents like that.

He let out a dry laugh, then quickly left with his men.

After the people from the Military Region departed, Su Xueer, who had been waiting at the school gate since early on, finally dared to approach.

She had received news early that Lin Heng would appear here, so she rushed over at the first opportunity. Finally, her efforts paid off, and she managed to intercept him.

Su Xueer's livestream was still running; everyone wanted to see when Lin Heng would return.

The crowd had guessed he might never come back.

Perhaps he would be detained inside the military restricted zone for a period, or maybe even sent directly to prison...

Even the shortest estimate hadn't exceeded three days.

After all, they had never heard of anyone being taken away by Military Region personnel and being released within three days.

Once inside, they would check all the records before letting anyone go.

And generally, anyone taken by the military was implied to be involved in some military matter, possibly even threatening national security...

But they never expected Lin Heng to return in less than a day... oh wait, he was taken in the afternoon and was back before evening.

What the heck...

Even running errands both ways wouldn't take this much time, right?

"Holy crap! 666, Lin Heng is the fiercest man I've ever seen. He came back in such a short time! I wonder what happened in the Military Region?"

"The person above, it's better not to ask casually, or you might get arrested!"

"Muted, muted, so scared."

The barrage comments were quite cautious regarding military affairs.

Su Xueer was also tactful enough not to bring up that topic.

She just looked at Lin Heng with concern, "Um, are you alright? Do you still have that part-time job later?"

"I'm fine. They just asked a few small questions, and then they let me go quickly."

Lin Heng replied casually.

Hearing Su Xueer's question, Lin Heng happened to nod.

"I have a part-time job tonight, but it's pretty boring. If you want to film it, you can come along."

Oh!?

There's a chance!

Su Xueer's heart stirred slightly upon hearing that Lin Heng had a part-time job tonight.

There was never a time when Lin Heng's part-time jobs were described as 'boring'.

She immediately asked on behalf of the viewers:

"I wonder what kind of part-time job it is?"

Meanwhile, the viewers in the livestream room started making jokes.

"At this late hour, what kind of part-time job could it be? It's either serving drinks or sleeping with someone. Could it be screwing bolts? Or being a security guard?"

"Seriously, I really can't think of any other evening part-time jobs. Probably at a nightclub... I just don't know if he's part of the atmosphere team."

"Don't say that. With a handsome guy like Lin Heng, at best he'd be at a high-end male escort club..."

"Could it be needling people at Wutong Alley?"

"..."

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

Under their anticipation, Lin Heng casually responded to Su Xueer.

"Security guard!"

Huh?

When everyone heard this, their eyebrows twitched slightly.

Good heavens!

It really is a security guard?

They just didn't know what kind of security guard this was.

"Speaking of security guards, I've actually done that job before. Setting aside everything else, it's genuinely easy work. Lin Heng is probably going to work the night shift. Night shifts are great; you can even play on your phone."

"No way... A security guard? And it's part-time. How much would that pay for one night? If you have that kind of money, you might as well get a good night's sleep."

"Exactly. Even though night shifts are fun, they wear down your body. Only young people pull all-nighters; everyone else should skip it."

"Look at when old men pull all-nighters. It's always the vigorous young men."

"It's just that young people are young calves unafraid of tigers. Once they get old, they realize their health isn't good. It's not worth burning your health for a mere hundred-plus yuan."

"They say being a security guard saves you thirty years of detours, which is a joke. Young people should study more."

"..."

Clearly, everyone was not optimistic about Lin Heng's choice of part-time job.

Even going to needle people like last time would be a much better part-time job than being a security guard.

In the livestream room, quite a few people scoffed at Lin Heng's choice of job.

Su Xueer was also slightly stunned.

Although it was said that there is excellence in every profession, she also didn't quite understand why Lin Heng wanted to be a part-time security guard.

However, she believed Lin Heng must have his own reasons.

"I don't know why Lin Heng wants to be a security guard, but since it's his decision, there must be his own rationale behind it."

"We have always been tolerant and understanding of other people's professions."

Su Xueer was still speaking well of Lin Heng.

But the livestream audience clearly wasn't buying it.

They chuckled wryly.

"Heh heh, what kind of future is there in being a security guard? And it's the night shift too; it must be incredibly boring."

"I was originally hoping to see him stopping delivery drivers or fighting with residents, but there are pitifully few people out late at night. Forget it, just wash up and go to sleep."

"Guys, I'm heading to bed first. Good night, everyone."

"..."

Faced with everyone's doubts, Su Xueer let out a dry laugh.

However, they didn't know that the reason Lin Heng was becoming a security guard wasn't for the money—a mere hundred-plus yuan for watching a gate.

"What the heck do these simpletons know? They don't know how lucrative being a security guard can be!"

"They probably think it's the traditional kind of security guard!"

Lin Heng said nothing; he quickly walked toward the location of his part-time job.

Following Lin Heng's steps, Su Xueer quickly caught up.

Then, they arrived at the entrance of a bar.

"Good heavens... They said he was a security guard, and I didn't expect it to be the security guard at the entrance of a bar!"

"My apologies, I was a bit loud before. I didn't realize this thing actually made money! I want to go too!"

"Streamer, post the address! Let me see if I can still catch the last bus."

"Streamer, Streamer, point the camera at the bar entrance, check out the legs..."

"..."

At this moment, Lin Heng took a large wad of cash and a luxury car key in his hands.

"Got it, bro! I guarantee I'll park your car properly, don't you worry!"

Rarely, a calculating smile appeared on Lin Heng's face.
