Leveling Up With My Pet



Chen Hu made his way to the airport for his flight, which was scheduled to depart at 10:15 in the morning. 

He was riding in a luxurious G-wagon arranged by Liu Yong, with a young driver sporting a crew cut at the wheel. Universal had recruited only seasoned veterans for their security detail and drivers.

As Chen Hu boarded the plane, he decided to check in on his former comrade-in-arms, He Qiang and gave him a call. Upon hearing Chen Hu's voice, He Qiang couldn't help but express his envy at the prospect of earning a whopping 100,000 yuan per month, ten times his salary of 5,000 yuan per month.

Chen Hu, amused by He Qiang's reaction, explained that he had a job offer to pay him 50,000 yuan monthly. 

Overjoyed by the news, He Qiang immediately agreed to take the job and resigned from his position as a security guard at a star-rated hotel.

After He Qiang was settled, Chen Hu reached out to another former comrade-in-arms, Kang Zhenggang, currently working as a security captain in a community, earning only 3-4,000 yuan per month. Kang Zhenggang had recently become a father and struggled to make ends meet with the added expenses of diapers, milk, and other necessities.

On that particular day, Kang Zhenggang was taking a day off to rest and attend to personal hygiene at home. 

While resting, his wife was breastfeeding their several-month-old son when she asked her husband about their financial situation. "Husband, we only have more than 500 yuan left. When will you get paid?" she asked.

Kang Zhenggang sighed softly and replied, "Soon, there is still one week."

Concerned about their finances, his wife suggested, "Honey, why don't I go out and find something to do?"

Kang Zhenggang was hesitant and replied, "If you go to find a job, no one will take care of our son. Why not take some of my retirement fee and use it temporarily?"

His wife reminded him, "Husband, that money cannot be moved. We agreed to use it to buy a house. What should we do now?"

Feeling helpless, Kang Zhenggang's phone suddenly rang. It was Chen Hu who inquired about Kang's job situation. "Lao Kang, how are you doing recently? Are you still working as a security guard in the community?" he asked.

Kang Zhenggang replied, "Oh, life is hard now. I have been working as a security guard in the community, and I get three or four thousand yuan a month."

Chen Hu then revealed a great offer, "Our boss needs bodyguards and drivers. I recommended you and Lao He. Would you like to come over? The salary is 50,000 yuan per month, plus some rewards. The annual income should be hundreds of thousands. No big problem."

Kang Zhenggang was shocked and asked, "Is there really such a high salary?"

Chen Hu replied, "Yes, 50,000 per month. If you do well, you can add more. From now on, 80,000 or 100,000 per month is completely possible."

Overjoyed at the offer, Kang Zhenggang exclaimed, "I am willing, willing. When can I come?"

Chen Hu replied, "You can come to report at any time. The sooner, the better. You will get 30,000 yuan as a settling allowance once you come to report."

Kang Zhenggang immediately accepted the offer and shared the good news with his wife. She burst into tears of joy, grateful that their financial woes would soon end. Kang Zhenggang wiped away his wife's tears and contemplated the ups and downs of life, feeling thankful for this opportunity to turn their lives around.

Like any other couple in love, Liu Yong and Li Changle were strolling hand in hand, enjoying their shopping trip together. 

Li Changle, who always had a high rate of return, was determined to maintain her beautiful figure and appearance. As they walked, Li Changle caught the attention of several young men who stole glances at her, clearly enamoured by her stunning beauty.

"Liu Yong, look at that dress, it's so pretty!" Li Changle exclaimed, pointing at a beautiful dress in a shop window.

Liu Yong smiled, "If you like it, we can go in and take a look."

As they entered the shop, Li Changle tried on the dress, admiring herself in the mirror. "Wow, I look great in this!" she exclaimed.

Liu Yong smiled and replied, "You always look great, Lele."

As they left the shop, Li Changle caught the attention of some young men quietly staring at her. "Look, beauty!" one of them whispered.

Another added, "Wow, so beautiful, that is the goddess in my mind."

"It's a pity I have a boyfriend," Li Changle smiled.

Liu Yong overheard the conversation and teased Li Changle,

"Lele, someone is always looking at you quietly."

Li Changle giggled, "Brother Yong, you won't be jealous, right?"

"My girlfriend is beautiful, and that makes me happy," Liu Yong replied. "Come and kiss me, let them know you're mine."

With a gentle tug, he pulled Li Changle close and kissed her.

"Oh, there are so many people," Li Changle whispered coquettishly, gently pushing Liu Yong away.

Liu Yong smiled happily, knowing they were the envy of those around them. They continued to enjoy their intimate moments together, talking and laughing.

In Security Department.

Meanwhile, a group of soldiers and officials from a security department were visiting an aircraft factory in China. 

They were accompanied by Sun Jian, the chief engineer, who proudly introduced them to China's latest large-scale military transport aircraft. 

Among them was Chen Li, the head of the Huahai City security department, who felt immense pride in seeing China's progress in independent design and manufacturing.

As Sun Jian guided the group through the factory, he explained the aircraft's features and specifications. 

The visitors listened attentively, feeling a sense of pride in their hearts.

Chen Li couldn't help but express his admiration, "It's incredible that we can independently design and manufacture such a large military transport aircraft in China."

"I agree," Sun Jian replied. "We are making great strides in our military industry, and this is just the beginning."

After the tour, many visitors left, but Chen Li stayed behind to catch up with his old friend Sun Jian. They chatted and enjoyed each other's company, both proud of China's achievements in the military industry.

Sun Jian was brimming with enthusiasm as he expertly prepared a pot of tea, his eagerness to catch up with his friend palpable. "Old Chen, it's rare for us to sit down and have a chat like this," he exclaimed.

Chen Li smiled warmly in agreement and playfully commented on Sun Jian's busy schedule. "That's because you are always so occupied," he said.

Sun Jian let out a wistful sigh and admitted, "Yes, it's true. I always wish I had more hours in the day. It has taken years of hard work, but I'm proud to say that our large military transport aircraft has finally achieved a measure of success."

However, Chen Li seemed intrigued by Sun Jian's use of the term "basic success". He asked curiously, 

"Is it not fully successful yet? Are there still many areas that need to be improved upon? I thought the technology had reached a state of maturity."
