Chapter 33
Gu Qingxue Had Never Been So Speechless
Fortunately, she had already guessed that Gu Lin would ask and had already prepared an excuse.
Gu Qingxue cleared her throat and said in a serious tone, “Actually, mother has long been skilled in medicine, but she has never mentioned it.”
“Long ago? How long ago?” Gu Lin tilted his head in confusion.
Gu Qingxue smiled slightly and brought out her trump card, “Very long ago. Before you were born, mother already knew medicine.”
Gu Lin frowned, “Alright then.”
He naturally did not know what his mother was like before they were born. However, his mother would not lie to him. He still chose to believe his mother.
Seeing that Gu Lin did not pursue the matter any further, Gu Qingxue secretly heaved a sigh of relief and led the children back to the carriage.
After getting into the carriage, Gu Qingxue used the excuse of closing her eyes to rest, but in fact, she went to look for the little butler.
“Little butler, come out,” Gu Qingxue said sharply.
Hearing Gu Qingxue’s tone, the little butler was afraid. He tried his best to remain calm and asked, “Master, is there anything I can help you with?”
“Let me ask you, I spent 200 points to save a person. In the end, you gave me a reward of 50 points after I saved the person? So I’ve been busy all day, but I actually made a loss-making deal?” Gu Qingxue questioned.
If she continued to save people and do missions like this, she would make a loss every time. When would she be able to acc.u.mulate enough points?
“It’s like this, master. You saved an ordinary person, so you only have 50 points. If you want to earn a large number of points, you need to save those good people. The level of the people you save is different, so the points you get will be different, master. In the same way, master, if you save a wicked person, the system will deduct your points. Please be careful, master,” the young butler said seriously.
Gu Qingxue did not expect there to be so many rules, so she asked again, “Then how do I judge whether the people I treat are good or bad?”
The young butler said seriously, “I trust your intuition, master.”
Gu Qingxue had never been so speechless in her life. She took a deep breath and said, “Then I’ll save people after I confirm their ident.i.ty.”
“Of course, you can. The master can decide whether or not to save the patient. But…” the little butler deliberately paused for a moment before continuing, “However, if your wrong judgment leads to the death of a good patient, the system will deduct all your points. Please be careful when you make your judgment, master.”
“I feel that your system is targeting me.” Gu Qingxue saw her red negative 250 points from afar. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that the system was insulting her.
“Beep, beep! The system has given a warning. If the host dares to speak rudely again, you will be penalized,” the little butler warned.
Gu Qingxue gritted her teeth and took a deep breath to hide the killing intent in her eyes. She ended the conversation with the little butler angrily.
When she opened her eyes, Gu Qingxue smelled the fragrance of meat. “Brother Li, stop the car.”
Gu Qingxue lifted the curtains and looked out. She saw a delicatessen by the road. The big pot at the door was full of fragrant stewed soup and stewed goods. The three little cubs were so hungry that they swallowed their saliva at the same time.
“Lady Gu, this place is far from where the rice noodles are sold,” Li Dali reminded Gu Qingxue.
“Don’t worry, I’ll get out of the car to buy some stewed meat first.” After saying that, Gu Qingxue pulled open the curtain and was about to get out of the carriage.
When the three children heard that, they were all surprised.
