Chapter 211: Chapter 210: What an extraordinary good person!
Confused, Qian Qi looked around and found not only a blanket had been placed over her waist at some point, but the window had been closed as well.
"Damn, you dog system, are you trying to cook me?" Qian Qi instinctively assumed the system, this old troublemaker, wanted to harm her.
System: [Do you have some issue!]
"If it wasn’t you, then who?" Xiang Wen Yun hardly ever comes into her room except to clean!
[It’s obviously your darling flower beauty~] The system smiled sarcastically and retorted, [Dog Qian Qi!]
Flower beauty? Who’s that?
Qian Qi scratched her head, somewhat clueless. She got out of bed, put on her flip-flops, and combed her frizzy hair before yawning and leaving the room.
"I’m so hungry. I’ll have potato braised pork tonight and ask the director mom to cook separately." Qian Qi said as she opened the door and then saw the silver-haired young man leaning against the wall "meditating" nearby.
"Whoa!" Qian Qi was startled by the tall figure and jumped back a step. After realizing the figure was Su Ang, she relaxed slightly, "Oh, it’s him. I thought it was a thief. Why’s he here?"
However... it seemed like he wasn’t "meditating" but... sleeping?
Sleeping while standing?
Qian Qi was slightly amazed and couldn’t help but admire him. She moved closer, carefully observing and confirming Su Ang was indeed asleep. His serene, flawless sleeping face and calm breathing indicated a deep sleep, while his long eyelashes trembled slightly, gently moving his hair fringe, enhancing his ethereal cold aura.
Qian Qi felt itchy inside, and her hands itched too. Heaven knows she had been tempted for a long time. Whenever she saw Su Ang, a primitive and unspeakable desire arose within her. Now, seeing Su Ang asleep, that hidden desire surged like a tide...
Silently, she swallowed as she reached her little hand toward Su Ang’s cheek...
And then mischievously plucked a strand of silver hair.
"Wow, is it natural?" Qian Qi looked at the hair root, noticing it was also silver, indicating Su Ang’s hair wasn’t dyed but naturally silver.
Qian Qi wanted to pluck another strand, but the system swatted the back of her head with a panel, [Qian Qi, you definitely have issues!]
"Ouch—be gentle!" Qian Qi rubbed the back of her head, retorting, "How’s plucking two strands of hair an issue? Besides, I’m not just going to pluck his; I want to pluck Xu Jinghong’s too!"
She’s curious if Xu Jinghong’s red hair is natural as well!
System: [...] Where does she get all these bizarre curiosities from!
Just as Qian Qi was about to pluck a second strand to confirm if Su Ang’s silver hair was natural, Su Ang suddenly opened his eyes, meeting her outstretched hand.
Qian Qi: "... Haha, Senior Su, I’ve called you several times. If you didn’t wake up soon, I was going to flick your forehead~"
Su Ang silently looked at the silver hair in her other hand.
Qian Qi quietly hid her hand behind her, earnestly lecturing, "Not to be critical, Senior Su, but you should rest more. Look, you’re young and already have white hair, particularly noticeable. So, I helped you pluck it."
Su Ang: ...
Great eyesight you have, finding white hair in a bunch of silver hair.
"Cough, Senior Su, what brings you here? Is something up?" Qian Qi suddenly brightened as she remembered something, "Could it be my hovercar worth over three billion is finally here?!"
"No, that still needs some time..." Su Ang stood up straight from the wall, now fully awake, and gestured with his eyes, "Let’s talk downstairs. I brought you something."
"Oh oh~" Hearing he brought her something, Qian Qi eagerly followed Su Ang downstairs, watching him walk to the hovercar and take out two boxes.
"I went to the Gu Yun Mountain Dungeon, used the Spirit Barrier, and within 2 seconds, plucked all the Demon God Grass leaves. It shouldn’t affect the potency of the Demon God Grass." Su Ang opened the box, revealing transparent Defense Bottles, each containing a magic god grass leaf. "Didn’t you say Sikong Wang’s mom needed more Magic God Grass? This should be enough, right?"
Qian Qi’s eyes widened instantly.
Whoa!
What an extraordinary good person! He’s practically her god!
"Very enough! More than enough!" Qian Qi’s excitement was beyond words, almost wanting to bow to Su Ang, "Senior Su! You’ve saved me a ton of money!"
Now she wouldn’t have to hire Su Ang again or pay the system for navigation money, haha—!
Most importantly, she could finally carry out the plan she had been devising!!!
"Oh yeah!" Qian Qi remembered something and quickly said, "You’re going back to Sea City later, right? I just finished a vial of Treatment Potion. Could you take it to Sikong Wang on your way? That’ll save me a trip!"
"Alright." Su Ang nodded, "Go get it."
Qian Qi turned and brought the Treatment Potion down from upstairs, admonishing repeatedly, "Be careful not to drop it, okay? Making this vial was hard, it took half my life!"
Su Ang paused, swallowed his intended words, and faintly said, "Alright."
Once the exchange of materials was completed, they fell into a brief silence. After a moment, Qian Qi tentatively asked, "So... stay for dinner?"
"Okay." Su Ang quietly replied.
Qian Qi: ... Actually, I was just being polite.
Scratching the back of her head, Qian Qi said nothing more and turned to order fresh vegetables and meat online, planning to cook something special for Su Ang.
It’s not right for a guest to arrive and make him eat big pot meals with the kids.
Especially since he’s a major client.
...
After dinner, the kids reluctant to see Su Ang leave, under Xiang Wen Yun’s invitation, Su Ang was to stay a night at the orphanage.
Qian Qi looked resentfully at the kids playing chess with Su Ang. The pain in her heart couldn’t be expressed.
This morning, they said they missed me and wanted to play with me, but now they’re all stuck to the guy named Su! Tsk! A bunch of face-lovers!
"Idol, idol, how scary is an A-level Magical Beast?" A kid propped his little head, innocently asking, "I heard it could destroy a whole city in a day, is that true?"
"Yes, since A-level Magical Beasts are so powerful, during dungeon turbulences, city infrastructures are destroyed, human numbers drastically reduced, and even many precious research materials were damaged or lost, bringing many limitations to human development." While speaking, Su Ang picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard.
The children around the chessboard nodded in semi-understanding, "Idol brother, then S-Class Magical Beasts are even more powerful?"
