Mai Tianxue nodded and said: "I believe you. You were scared at the time. It was obviously the first time you faced this situation. I am honored to be with a foreign master and have such an exciting experience."
"I have a question, how did Zhang Yadong see that I am... special?" Zhang Yadong is Uncle Zhang, the psychic from the Mai family. He became wary of him yesterday, which has always made him wonder.
"Uncle Zhang practices Ming Guan Dafa. He has a special ability that allows him to detect... breaths that ordinary people can't feel. Maybe it's the special breath you reveal unintentionally, so he can sense it!"
Bai Qiandao lamented that he did not understand the various techniques practiced by spiritual power practitioners. The Ming Guan Dafa practiced by Zhang Yadong was quite special. It seemed that he would have to pay attention to concealing the special aura at all times in the future. This was also the first time he had gained power. He knew nothing about the strange people in the world, so he casually revealed it and was sensed by Zhang Yadong.
"This matter involves demons, so it should be more dangerous. Miss Mai, don't go to the used car yard with me again, go back!"
Mai Tianxue said: "I must go, this is related to the survival of the Mai family, and... I believe you can protect me."
Bai Qiandao was puzzled and said bitterly: "I can't make any guarantees... If you insist on going, follow me closely and don't leave me three steps away."
Mai Tianxue smiled and said, "Okay."
Bai Qiandao drank the remaining drink in one gulp and saw another bottle of drink being handed over, with a beautiful smile like a flower. He hesitated and took it.
Qianli Tong's bell rang. Bai Qiandao looked at it and hung up coldly, but the bell rang again.
He answered the call angrily and shouted, "Huang Ru, what do you want to do?"
"I remember one thing. The last time you lent me five thousand yuan, you still haven't paid me back." Huang Ru's plain voice came from the other side.
"I...the money I have spent on you over the past year is more than five thousand, right? Are you still shameless?"
Bai Qiandao remembered that two months ago, Bai Yunni fell ill and needed surgery. He really didn't have so much money on hand. I had no choice but to borrow 5,000 from Huang Ru and agreed to pay it back to her in three months. Unexpectedly, she fell in love with him just because of the money.
"Bai Qiandao, these are two different things. I have spent more than a year of my youth accompanying you. You should spend money on me and you are willing to do so. You must pay me back the money I loaned you."
"You are so shameless, okay, I...I will return it to you, but not now."
"Let me remind you, there are still twenty-six days until the deadline for you to pay back the money..."
"Don't go too far. That's what you said verbally. Where do you want me to get money for you in the past twenty days?" Bai Qiandao shouted angrily.
"I won't ask. You have always prided yourself on being upright. I believe you won't default on your debt."
Listening to the blind voice that hung up, Bai Qiandao became extremely angry and depressed. He raised Qianli Tong and failed to smash it down. He had no money to buy it again!
"Do you owe anyone money?" Mai Tianxue asked.
"This is none of your business, don't bother me." Bai Qiandao was in a bad mood and spoke in an impatient tone.
"If you urgently need to pay back the money, I will give it to you and you don't have to pay it back to me."
Bai Qiandao was stunned and said, "Okay, please lend me five thousand yuan. I will definitely return it to you. You can write an IOU."
Mai Tianxue smiled and said: "It's really five thousand yuan. I thought it was fifty million. You are a foreign master. You owe five thousand yuan. Can't you afford to pay it back?"
"I...I said, I haven't had powers for a long time. Besides, the demons are hidden deep in the human world, so I can't find them one by one." Bai Qiandao said awkwardly.
"I suggest you join the Royal Guard. I heard that they are in great need of alien masters, and the remuneration is sky-high, but they haven't been able to recruit one in a hundred years."
"No, I...I can't be restricted from freedom." Bai Qiandao thought of the system tasks and didn't know how he would arrange them. At present, it seems that he needs to be free to complete the tasks well.
"Yes, there are too few foreign masters in the world. I have never heard of any who are willing to serve the royal government. You need freedom... Tell me your bank account number and I will transfer it to you."
After a while, when he heard the text message reminder, Bai Qiandao looked at it and was a little shocked. Mai Tianxue actually transferred one million, so much?
"I can't afford to pay back so much money..."
"This is the fee for you during this period. You are helping me solve the problem and you need to spend money. Five thousand yuan of it is the money lent to you. You can repay it as you wish."
"No, no, you don't understand, I...I can't have so much money on my card..."
"Why?" Mai Tianxue asked in surprise.
Bai Qiandao didn't dare to ask for so much money because of the warning from the system, otherwise it would probably be confiscated, but he couldn't tell him.
At this time, my mind was spinning and I blurted out: "I am cursed..."
"Curse? What curse?" Mai Tianxue was even more surprised.
"What...becoming a foreign master comes with a price. Somehow...I know that I can't have more money, otherwise I will probably die." Bai Qiandao could only talk nonsense like this, but one sentence is true, His life may be in danger because of this. Who knows what kind of urine the system is!
"Is there such a thing? The foreign master I know is very rich and doesn't have this curse?" Mai Tianxue asked doubtfully.
"I'm different...ahem, that's the story anyway, don't ask any more questions." Bai Qiandao didn't know how to go on, secretly complaining about the ruthlessness of the system.
"You are so weird!" Mai Tianxue looked at him with a strange look.
Bai Qiandao smiled bitterly, yes, he must continue to be so strange. Since he has a very special ability that allows him to have great power, this will change his life and have corresponding side effects. This is what the system gives. Curse!
Bai Qiandao turned back, leaving only five thousand, and then transferred it to Huang Ru.
Soon, the bell rang, and as soon as he answered the call, Huang Ru's questioning voice came from the other side: "How do you have this money?"
"Can you take care of it? I have already paid it off. We will not owe each other anything in the future and we will never have anything to do with each other."
After a moment of silence, Huang Ru said: "Bai Qiandao, from what I know about you, you are surrounded by poor people and can't borrow five thousand yuan. Have you... done something illegal or criminal?"
"Huang Ru, you are insulting me. I, Bai Qiandao, am an upright person and will never do bad things." Bai Qiandao said angrily.
"Then tell me, how did you get this money in such a short time?"
"Well, I met a rich man and she lent me this."
"Who is it? A man or a woman?"
"Do I need to tell you? Goodbye, never see you again." Bai Qiandao pressed the hang up button.
"Huang Ru is a woman's name. You were angry and sad because of her. Did you break up?" Mai Tianxue asked.
Bai Qiandao frowned, tried to calm down his expression, pretended to be indifferent, and said: "I don't want to talk about my own affairs, the used car lot has arrived..."
The owner of the old car lot is a middle-class man with some money, but not too much. He makes a living by buying and selling old speed cars.
According to what he said, it was consistent with what the police knew. As for the origin of the tiger demon, some people had to investigate it. It seemed difficult at the moment. Bai Qiandao didn't have a clue. It seemed that the clues had been cut off.
Back at Mai's house, Mai Tianxue said, "Go and have a rest first!"
Bai Qiandao nodded, went straight back to the guest room, took a shower, and lay on the bed thinking, feeling that his IQ was really not up to par and there was no way he could solve it!
There was a knock on the door, and the robot Aqin came in and delivered a rich meal and three cans of beer. He asked for three cans of beer yesterday, and Ah Qin remembered it and brought him three more cans today. How humane!
"Aqin, are you in a good mood today?" Bai Qiandao asked.
"No, Lao Wang's dog died, I'm very sad." Aqin looked a little sad.
"Who is Lao Wang?"
"Chef Wang, he has a dog and he often plays with me. I can't bear to let him go."
"The birth, old age, illness and death of a living being are all determined. It should have gone to another place and lived well." Bai Qiandao comforted.
"Thank you! No one will say these words to me. You are a very kind person." Aqin smiled at him and bowed to leave.
Bai Qiandao looked at her leaving figure and was very impressed by her intelligence. Although it was just a program setting, she was much more humane than many people.
There was nothing to do for the time being. After Bai Qiandao ate, he took a nap until it got bright again.
Standing at the window, facing the warm sunshine and smelling the faint fragrance of flowers, he stretched and felt that the life of the rich was so good, so enjoy it!
Outside the window, a speeding car flew by. I couldn't see the person inside clearly, and I didn't know if it was someone from the Mai family. Mai's family was very small. After Mai Jue's death, they only had one son, a pair of grandchildren, and several concubines of Mai Shouye. In addition, there are Zhang Yadong, more than a hundred bodyguards, two living robots, and some servants.
The price of living robots is too expensive, and their sale is strictly restricted. Only powerful and wealthy families like the Mai family can afford to buy and use them, and specialized agencies often come to inspect them. According to what is said online, this is to prevent robots from having too strong a sense of autonomy and causing harm to society.
There has been an example of a robot that was too humane, developed self-awareness, completely lost control, and became a terrifying murderous demon. It paralyzed the power grid in a large area, and even mysteriously replaced its owner and lived with humans for a long time before being discovered. Bai Qiandao didn't know whether these rumors were true or false, but Aqin's spirituality made him truly realize that the robot's emotions could really give rise to self-awareness.
There was a knock on the door, and Ah Qin came in and smiled at him. If he hadn't known that she was a robot, he wouldn't have been able to tell because she looked too human.
Aqin brought breakfast and bowed away with a gentle smile.
Soon, she came in again and told him that Mai Tianxue called him over.
Mai Tianxue has a special intercom that can order Aqin to do anything from a distance, while another living robot, Azhu, has been serving Mai Shouye and his concubines.
Coming to a room, Mai Tianxue was sitting inside, stood up and said, "Please accompany me to the headquarters of Mai Group. I have a meeting."
