69: Stealing half a day of leisure
Under the special car service, Fang Bai and his group once again arrived at Qi Tian's villa.
It was still the familiar setup, with the butler standing properly at the door in a tuxedo.
And on both sides was a row of maids.
These maids were all of extremely high quality, clearly the type of beautiful college graduates working part-time.
"Welcome home, Young Master~"
Seductive voices rang out—older sisters, lolis, pure and alluring types... but Qi Tian, long accustomed to it, waved his hand. "Go about your business. Oh, and butler, prepare a table of food. I'm entertaining my friends."
"Yes, Young Master."
The butler and the maids all retreated, leaving only Qi Tian and his companions.
Fang Bai, having held back for a long time, finally couldn't resist. He said with a deep gaze, "I say, with such beautiful maids, you still like the tigresses at the Martial Arts Academy?"
Qi Tian said indifferently, "Too much fine grain, sometimes I want some coarse grain. You wouldn't understand."
Fang Bai: "..."
Before entering the Martial Arts Academy, this Qi Tian was definitely a proper scion, surely having indulged in many pleasures.
He probably wasn't Xiao Chunan anymore.
Xiao Yuan and A Xiu both curiously observed the villa's decorations.
Especially the latter; it was her first time at Qi Tian's house, and her eyes held a hint of curiosity and brightness.
So, a house could be decorated like this?
In her impression, rooms were either brick walls or simply luxurious.
"How much does this house cost?"
A Xiu suddenly asked.
Qi Tian paused, then chuckled, "At least several hundred million, I suppose."
The location here was top-tier; ordinary people couldn't buy it even if they had money.
A Xiu frowned, "Is a box of gold enough?"
Qi Tian shook his head, "I'm afraid that's not quite enough, but if A Xiu wants to own this house, it's very simple."
A Xiu looked at him suspiciously, "How?"
Qi Tian raised a mischievous smile, "Marry me! You'll be the mistress of this villa!"
A Xiu was silent for a moment, then quietly drew her sword.
"Eh? No, Big Sister! I was just joking, why did you suddenly draw your sword?"
Qi Tian immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
A Xiu stared at him calmly, "You're taking advantage of me."
Qi Tian quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Big Sister, I was wrong!"
A Xiu thought for a moment and said, "You need to compensate me for emotional damages."
"Huh?"
A Xiu frowned, "Isn't that reasonable?"
Qi Tian was speechless, "Then tell me, how much?"
"One hundred million."
???
Seriously, listen to yourself. Is that even human language?
Fang Bai ignored the two and walked to the sofa to sit down.
"Tsk tsk, if I just settled down and bought a villa, with beautiful maids serving me every day, wouldn't life be perfect?"
It would be acceptable in peaceful times, but now it was the apocalypse.
Perhaps one day, demonic beasts would invade, and everything would turn to dust.
After a brief relaxation, Fang Bai and Qi Tian called two maids to play mahjong together.
A Xiu, meanwhile, went to take a bath.
Xiao Yuan wandered freely.
Not long after, an explosion suddenly echoed through the villa.
Qi Tian and the others immediately rushed towards the restroom!
Enemy attack?
When they arrived at the restroom door, they found Xiao Yuan's tall figure sitting somewhat helplessly on the toilet, with the water pipe beneath him having burst.
Seeing them look, he gave a silly smile, "I... I sat on this for the first time, and I broke it..."
He looked at Qi Tian with clear eyes.
Qi Tian was speechless, then waved his hand, "It's no big deal. I'll have the butler specially get you an oversized toilet."
It was a false alarm, and everyone left sheepishly.
Soon, the chef had prepared a table full of dishes.
Delicacies from land and sea; all four unconsciously swallowed their saliva.
"What are you waiting for? Dig in!"
With Qi Tian's command, he was the first to grab food.
Fang Bai and the others were like starving ghosts who hadn't eaten for days, not even bothering with chopsticks, tearing meat with their hands and stuffing it into their mouths!
The butler was somewhat surprised by this scene, especially seeing his young master behave this way. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Young Master, didn't you eat well at the Martial Arts Academy?"
"Wuwuwu..."
Qi Tian said indistinctly, his mouth full of a chicken drumstick.
"Uh..."
Qi Tian swallowed with difficulty, then showed an indignant expression, "Damn it! That food is like pig slop! And it's ridiculously expensive!"
At the Martial Arts Academy, money couldn't be used, only points to purchase items, which limited the rich second generation Qi Tian's superpowers.
The butler hesitated, then said, "Shall I mention it to your grandfather when he returns tonight? To have the Qi Family sponsor and improve the meals?"
Qi Tian dismissed it, "Forget it, forget it! My second uncle is in charge of the Martial Arts Academy now, and my father won't interfere."
He glanced at Fang Bai and the other two, slowly saying, "You all need to be more reserved, like you've never eaten before. Holy crap, Old Bai, I told you to eat slower! Are you seriously eating a whole leg in one bite? Leave some for me!"
After eating their fill, the four lay back in their chairs in a 'Ge You Slouch,' their faces serene, as if they had no regrets left.
"How about we quit the Martial Arts Academy and go solo?"
Fang Bai suddenly suggested.
"???"
Qi Tian gave him a strange look, "Do you have some expert guiding you from behind? Why do you have such thoughts?"
Fang Bai shrugged and said, "Look, we do have cultivation resources in the Martial Arts Academy, but if we went solo and ventured into the Alien Space, we could still find many resources!"
"And life could be more comfortable; we could do whatever we want."
Upon hearing this, A Xiu and Xiao Yuan both fell into contemplation.
Qi Tian said helplessly, "It's too late to quit now. Moreover, without the identity of a Martial Arts Academy student, even if we train on our own, we'd face many restrictions. For example, in the Alien Space, non-The Authorities personnel are prohibited from entering B-level or higher Alien Spaces without approved permission."
"Those lower-rated Alien Spaces have long been exploited by others, with not even a drop left."
Hearing this, Fang Bai also felt a bit regretful.
He had actually thought of quietly developing in the Alien Space for a few years, then emerging invincible!
His main stage was destined to be where demonic beasts were.
Qi Tian suddenly looked at Fang Bai and asked seriously, "Old Bai, honestly, do you have some kind of cheat that allows you to quickly become stronger through some method?"
Fang Bai nodded, "Yes."
A Xiu glanced at Fang Bai, suddenly understanding.
No wonder he progressed so quickly.
Fang Bai shrugged and said, "I'll be honest, my body has mutated, and I can directly devour the energy of demonic beasts."
Qi Tian's eyes widened, "Holy crap! Are you really a reincarnated big shot?"
Wouldn't that skill make you invincible?
"What reincarnated big shot?"
A questioning Middle-aged Man's voice rang out.
Immediately after, a Middle-aged Man in a suit walked into the villa.
"Dad?"
Qi Tian stood up.
This Middle-aged Man was his father, Qi Yuan.
