Chapter Two Hundred and Three: Partners

Gao Yang was baffled by the question. After he nonchalantly freed his hand from Little Donnie's grip, he didn't answer Little Donnie's question. Instead, he retorted, "So, are you saying you're an agent?"

Little Donnie subconsciously nodded, then said gravely, "Of course. If I weren't an agent, why would I come to Tomler Company for an interview? They told me there was a position available, but that I had a competitor. I thought that competitor was you, but now, looking at you, it seems, well, you look more like a mercenary."

"If you're an agent, then I'm a mercenary."

Hearing Gao Yang's response, Little Donnie's eyes lit up, and the despondency on his face was swept away as he joyfully said, "I misunderstood just now. I thought you were in the same line of work as me. Now that I can confirm that you're not an agent, and since you didn't deny my assertion that you've also failed, may I interpret that as you were looking to partner with Tomler Company but got rejected?"
