15: Chapter 15 Handsome Oppa, Online Treasure Appraisal
"What? You even committed tax evasion?"
Murong Jiaxing looked at Murong Junjun with an extremely grim expression.
Murong Junjun lowered his head and opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
"You..."
Seeing Murong Junjun's reaction, Murong Jiaxing had already guessed what happened.
Then he cursed with a face full of rage.
"I told you long ago not to evade taxes, not to evade taxes! Did you treat my words as wind passing your ears?"
"Dad... Dad, I'm sorry... I was wrong..."
Murong Junjun's whole body trembled out of sheer fear.
"The one you've let down isn't me! It's yourself."
Murong Jiaxing cursed angrily, then turned to the Officer Hats and said with determination, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Whatever he has done, I hope you will handle the case according to the law!"
The young Officer Hat glanced at the head-bowed Murong Junjun and said indifferently, "Come with us!"
Hearing this, Murong Junjun's face was instantly filled with terror.
"No! Dad! Save me! I was wrong, I'm a beast, please save me!"
"Hmph!"
Murong Jiaxing snorted coldly and ignored the pleading Murong Junjun. He waved his hand, and several Officer Hats escorted Murong Junjun away.
"Qin Mo, can we still live in our manor now?"
Murong Lanlan said with a worried face.
"No problem. I'll just help you rearrange the Feng Shui layout later."
Hearing this, Murong Lanlan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. After all, having lived there for so long, she really didn't want to move out.
Then, Murong Jiaxing slowly walked to Qin Mo's side and said guiltily, "Thank you, young man, for saving our lives."
"Mm."
Qin Mo nodded without saying much, then turned around, intending to leave.
Seeing this, Murong Jiaxing thought Qin Mo was still angry about being kicked out, so he said anxiously.
"Wait, young man. It's almost dark now. Why don't you stay for a meal? It'll give me a chance to properly thank you!"
"Yeah, Qin Mo, stay and have a meal with us!"
At this time, Murong Lanlan, who was standing by, also spoke up.
"Alright then."
Qin Mo found it hard to refuse, so he followed Murong Lanlan toward the main hall.
"Ding! popularity points +2000"
"Ding! popularity points +2000"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for reaching 10,000 popularity points. Reward: three months of lifespan! Reward: Master-level Treasure Appraisal! Next reward at 50,000 popularity points!"
"Holy crap? What's going on? What's wrong with the system? First a Taoist, then a doctor, and now it's giving me Treasure Appraisal?"
This is really like a knife to the butt—it's truly an eye-opener...
...
In the evening, they had a hearty meal, allowing Qin Mo, who had been eating instant noodles for two months, to finally taste what meat was like...
"Qin Mo, you can sleep in this room. It's right next to mine, hehe."
Just after eating, Murong Lanlan volunteered to arrange a room for Qin Mo and brought him to the one next to hers.
Qin Mo gave her a strange look and then struck a defensive pose.
"Why are you smiling so brightly? Something's not right! Something's very wrong!"
"Speak! Are you still harboring wicked designs on me?"
"You..."
"Get lost!"
Murong Lanlan's face instantly turned as hot as a cooked crab. She roared at him and then turned to run back to her room...
"Hehe!"
Qin Mo smiled slightly and pushed the door open to enter.
Coincidentally, this scene was fully witnessed by Murong Jiaxing downstairs.
He immediately wore an expression as if the cabbage he had raised was being rooted up by a pig, then he sighed and walked out of the manor...
"Stinky Qin Mo, rotten Qin Mo! Who's harboring wicked designs on you? How dare you look down on me! I'll beat you to death..."
At this moment, in the room next to Qin Mo's, Murong Lanlan was frantically venting on the pillow on her bed, as if treating it like Qin Mo's pig head...
After venting for a while, Murong Lanlan finally calmed down. Then, as if she had thought of something, she revealed a mischievous smile.
...
After returning to his room, Qin Mo took off his clothes and went in to shower, completely unaware that a sneaky figure had slipped into his room...
"Hehe, stinky Qin Mo, that's what you get for bullying me! I'll scare you to death!"
Murong Lanlan had found a throw pillow with a ghost face painted on it from somewhere and secretly stuffed it into Qin Mo's covers.
She then showed a smile of a successful conspiracy, as if she could already see Qin Mo jumping in fright the moment he pulled back the covers. Her mood instantly brightened.
Just as she was about to turn and leave...
"Click..."
A crisp sound of a door opening rang out. Qin Mo strode out of the bathroom and immediately saw Murong Lanlan, who was about to leave.
As luck would have it, Murong Lanlan also happened to turn her head at that moment, and their eyes met...
"Ah!!!!"
A high-pitched scream rang out. Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, then quickly rushed over to Murong Lanlan in a few strides and covered her mouth.
"If you keep screaming, you'll attract everyone!"
Murong Lanlan looked at Qin Mo with a flushed face and said indistinctly, "Let go of me..."
Qin Mo said helplessly, "I'll let you go, but don't scream!"
"Mm-hmm!"
Murong Lanlan nodded her little head frantically like a chicken pecking at rice.
Seeing this, Qin Mo slowly released his hand.
Once freed, Murong Lanlan quickly covered her eyes, her face burning hot.
"You... you pervert!"
"How could you run around without any clothes on!"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but peek shyly through the gaps between her fingers.
Hmm... eight-pack abs... such a good body...
Qin Mo was instantly annoyed at the sight.
"Hey! Can you cover them properly? I can see your eyes through the gaps! You perverted woman..."
Seeing her little actions being noticed by Qin Mo, Murong Lanlan felt so embarrassed she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with her toes...
Then she stubbornly retorted, "You... you're the pervert! You're the one... running around naked at home..."
Qin Mo was momentarily speechless.
"I was taking a shower! How am I supposed to shower without taking off my clothes? Also! Why did you suddenly run into my room?"
"Hmph! I'm not telling you! Anyway, you're the pervert!"
...
Qin Mo didn't bother to argue with her and quickly put on his clothes.
Seeing this, there was a clear hint of... disappointment in Murong Lanlan's eyes.
Qin Mo gave Murong Lanlan an annoyed glance.
"Speak! What are you doing in my room?"
Murong Lanlan's little head spun for a long time before she finally said:
"Um... I... I got lost!"
Qin Mo's eyes widened, and he nearly choked, "What did you say? You got lost?"
"Mm-hmm!"
Murong Lanlan nodded her little head quickly.
Qin Mo gave a sarcastic smirk, "That excuse is so immature. Something's not right... Are you lusting after my body?"
"You... you hooligan..."
Murong Lanlan stammered a reply and then bolted out the door as if Qin Mo were some kind of terrifying beast...
"This girl..."
Looking at Murong Lanlan's departing figure, Qin Mo shook his head helplessly.
Then he tidied up a bit, set up his streaming equipment, and changed the title to: "Handsome Oppa, Appraising Treasures Online!"
"Yo? Dog Streamer has a new trick every day, huh? Today it's Treasure Appraisal?"
"Streamer, your fortune-telling is top-notch, I have no words for that, but this Treasure Appraisal..."
"The guy above, haven't you learned your lesson after twice? Is the Streamer someone you can doubt?"
"There are thousands of roads, safety comes first; improper driving leads to tears of loved ones..."
???
"The guy above? Are you in the wrong stream?"
"Huh? Is the Streamer not telling fortunes today? Why change to Treasure Appraisal?"
"The guy above, fortune-telling doesn't really go with your drinking anyway..."
"You wouldn't understand. I just had some alcohol and want to go for a drag race. I wanted the Streamer to tell my fortune and see if this trip is auspicious or ill-fated."
"Criminal! That's so damn criminal!"
"Racing bro, do you have a wife and kids?"
"I have a wife, no kids. Why?"
"That's fine then. Bro, you go ahead. I'll take good care of my wife... uh, I mean my sister-in-law."
"Shit..."
...
