She had worked as an undercover agent many times in her previous life. During that time she had investigated the homicide of a rich man; she worked as an undercover agent for some time in the home of a wealthy man on the Forbes list. She was very skilled in housekeeping.
That was why Qi Qingyao thought that this deal was quite the bargain.
She was shocked earlier because she was told she could get that guy to buy one of those Pills of Omnipotence just by becoming a maidservant for one month. Was this deal not too good to be true? It was so good that she did not dare believe it!
Si Jin said a little unhappily, “I want to go kill Lu Yan.”
“You can’t kill him, you can’t.” Qi Qingyao hurriedly obstructed Si Jin. She calmly said, “He is a gold mine, you can’t kill him!”
Si Jin sat down gloomily and complained, “What if I replace you in serving him?”
There was someone willing to become a servant of their own accord? Qi Qingyao said, “Go and ask.”
Si Jin rushed to the front yard to look for Dong Jing to explain the situation.
After a while.
He ran back, looking distracted.
Shoulders drooping, he said to Qi Qingyao, “Dong Jing said you were the one who was appointed to serve, and that I cannot replace you.”
“That guy basically wants me to work like a horse for him.” Qi Qingyao sighed. She thought, ‘Lu Yan can’t possibly want me to work as his maid because he wanted a test subject to test his tolerance toward females, right?’
If that was the case…
It was already her responsibility as a doctor to help him to begin with.
This deal benefited her way too much.
She did not think she would be able to get a Pill of Omnipotence that easily.
Qi Qingyao smiled breezily and said, “That’s alright, then. Have Dong Jing inform Lu Yan that this lady agrees! Tell him to wait, and if he can’t get that pill for me later, I will poison him.”
“…”
Si Jin pressed his lips together, his heart hurting a little as he thought about Qi Qingyao.
He also silently thought to himself.
If Lu Yan really dared to use Sister as his servant and order her about.
He will curse the man silently that he would go bald!
Grandpa had told him that regardless of how handsome a guy was, he would no longer be good-looking if he lost all his hair!’
…
…
Qi Qingyao and Lu Yan reached an agreement without a black and white contract.
Meanwhile, somewhere else.
After Shang Li returned from the Qi Residence, he returned to the inn, completely mystified.
He sat down on the arhat couch, adjusting his breath for the night. After his internal injuries had healed up a little, he opened his eyes. He looked at the rosy dawn of the early morning outside the window, his expression hideous.
After that, he went out and gave orders for a bit. Before long, the servants of the inn delivered the boiled medicine.
There were two bowls of medicine in total.
Gongsun She drank one bowl.
He also drank one bowl.
After they drank their medicine, Gongsun She was still very weak. He laid there, looking at the beam of the room wistfully. Then he turned his head and looked at Shang Li, who had started adjusting his breath after drinking the medicine.
Gongsun She could not help but ask.
“You haven’t said anything ever since you came back yesterday, and you’ve just been adjusting your breath. What exactly happened?”
He guessed that Shang Li had probably raised his hand against Si Jin.
Otherwise, there would not be a reason for him to keep adjusting his breath.
Not only that, he even made some medicine for himself.
Which indicated that his internal injuries were rather serious.
Shang Li opened his cloudy eyes. Light filled those slightly yellowed eyes. He got up from the couch, brushed his clothes, and looked at old man Gongsun in the bed.
After a moment of silence, he said shortly, “His strength is extraordinarily terrifying. He is above a grand master!”
“I know he’s above a grand master, that’s why I told you to be careful,” Gongsun She said sulkily. Was this not something that he already knew?
“How did he kill Pang Juan? What is his strength? How did he do it? I asked him to exchange blows with me. But he just put his hand on my shoulder and I could already feel the destructive power. I felt like a child who had just started cultivating in his presence. I had no way to fight back!” Shang Li opened the window and breathed in the cold air.
Gongsun She felt a chill in his heart when he heard those words.
That was because Shang Li’s response was exactly the same as his and Pang Juan’s when they exchanged blows with Si Jin…
That youth was so strong, he was inhuman.
