164: Chapter 164 Jiang Qin's Identity Card
"Captain, does my brother know about this?"
After Jiang Qin finished reading that document, she felt as if she were floating on clouds for a long while.
She double-checked the document repeatedly, reading it word by word, sentence by sentence.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Jiang Qin, with an uneasy heart, sent another message to Lu Li.
Judging from Fang Xun's behavior, she suspected he didn't know about this document.
However, just in case her brother simply hadn't noticed it earlier, he might have seen it by now.
Soon, Lu Li's reply came back.
"I didn't tell him. It's better if you tell him yourself, Jiang Qin."
In her office, Lu Li was also weighing the words she had sent.
This document could be sent to Fang Xun, or it could not.
But Jiang Qin was the tether holding Fang Xun; as long as Jiang Qin was there, Fang Xun would certainly never leave her.
Based on her understanding of Fang Xun, even if he saw this document, he wouldn't leave Jiang Qin.
But what if?
Moreover, if she deceived Fang Xun and he found out one day, it would likely be even harder to handle.
Therefore, she handed the power of choice over to Jiang Qin.
She would let Jiang Qin handle this matter.
Soon, Jiang Qin's message came back.
"Understood, Captain. I'll find a suitable opportunity to tell my brother."
"Good."
With that, the conversation ended.
After a long moment, Jiang Qin's phone screen automatically turned off.
Jiang Qin looked at the face reflected on the black screen; that face actually wore an eerie smile.
"Brother is my brother.
But Brother... is not my brother.
Hehe."
But regarding this matter, should she tell her brother?
Should she?
Jiang Qin raised her hand, and a green fluorescence hit the switch, turning off the light.
The sky turned dark.
A night of silence passed.
Fang Xun slept exceptionally comfortably in his own bed today.
The Big Gray Rat really had become a spirit.
Not only could it find its own food, but it also cleaned the house, and last night it even helped him pound his legs and massage his shoulders and waist.
The Big Gray Rat's combat form was indeed somewhat hideous, but its massage skills were exceptionally good.
"So refreshing."
Fang Xun looked at the curtains that the Big Gray Rat had already pulled open, stood up, and vigorously performed a set of 'Bastard Punches'.
According to Fang Xun, this counted as a morning workout.
Heading out, Jiang Qin had indeed already left for school.
On the table, there was food that had been covered up.
Fang Xun sat on a chair and casually opened the ceramic lid.
"Omurice?"
Fang Xun took a look, then another.
"Heart-shaped Omurice?"
Seeing the shape of the Omurice, Fang Xun looked around suspiciously before quickly shoveling two spoonfuls of rice into his mouth.
He had thought that with Jiang Qin's behavior yesterday, she should have recognized reality and let go of the events in the Illusionary Realm.
But what was with this Omurice?
After thinking for a long time, Fang Xun decided to treat this as proof that their sibling relationship was becoming increasingly close.
"Yeah, that must be it."
Dudu-da, dudu-da.
Just as Fang Xun was shoveling rice, his phone suddenly rang.
"What's up, Lu Li?"
Fang Xun answered the phone and greeted her first.
"I have some good news for you," Lu Li said, specifically sensing Fang Xun's tone of voice.
Hearing that there was nothing wrong with his tone, she felt relieved.
"What good news?" Fang Xun didn't know that Lu Li had just made up an excuse to check on his status.
He was actually quite happy to hear there was good news.
"Good news..." Lu Li's mind raced.
Soon, she actually found a piece of news that could be considered good.
"The first phase of our Disaster Beast Factory has been completed. Do you want to come and take a look?"
"So fast?" Fang Xun was instantly shocked.
How many days has it been? It hasn't even been a month, right?
"It really is that fast. Are you coming or not? If you, a Great Senior, come over, it would be very meaningful for the Disaster Beast Factory."
"I'll come, but I don't want to be some Great Senior anymore. Just treat it as taking a junior out to play, okay?"
Fang Xun really wanted to see it, as he was the one who had facilitated this after all.
But acting as a Great Senior in such a setting meant he had to maintain a facade at all times, which was far too exhausting.
Even fighting wasn't this tiring.
"Fine. Come on, come on. Do you want me to pick you up?" Lu Li suggested.
"Sure."
Fang Xun hung up the phone, and Lu Li walked straight out of her office.
Taking a 'junior' along... that really was quite interesting.
A short while later, a red ferrari stopped downstairs at Fang Xun's residential complex.
Fang Xun saw the message from Lu Li and walked down the stairs, immediately drawn to the red ferrari.
Even Old Man Wang came out to take a look.
Then, Old Man Wang watched with wide eyes as a great beauty stepped out of the car and welcomed Fang Xun into the passenger seat.
Old Man Wang couldn't help but mutter, "Little Fang Xun has hooked up with a rich woman, eh?"
...
...
In the car, Fang Xun was also extremely shocked.
"Is this your car?" Fang Xun asked in shock.
"Yeah." Lu Li stepped on the gas, and the ferrari roared as it sped away.
"Wait, aren't you a civil servant? Are you civil servants this rich?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm doing a job where I live life on the edge. Can that be the same? Besides, I'm an Ability User, an A-rank Ability User!"
"When did you become A-rank? Weren't you B-rank?" Fang Xun suddenly noticed something as he listened to Lu Li.
"Last time..." Lu Li immediately brought up the time Fang Xun used the horse talisman to help heal her injuries.
Back then, it was Fang Xun's evil intent that appeared, and he even said he wanted to...
"Anyway, when you used the horse talisman to heal me last time, it cured some of my old hidden ailments."
"Oh... oh..."
Fang Xun also remembered what happened last time, and what Lu Li said...
Mm.
Thinking of this, Fang Xun glanced at Lu Li again.
In the end, seeing Lu Li's face gradually turning red, Fang Xun didn't have the heart to ask if that matter still counted.
*Cough*
Fang Xun cleared his throat and changed the subject:
"The Disaster Beast Factory, where was it built?"
"It's just outside the city. I'll take you there." Lu Li pursed her lips, her voice becoming softer.
Lu Li, oh Lu Li, are you actually waiting for him to bring up that matter?
You shameless woman!
"Oh, okay."
The air fell silent.
Only the roar of the ferrari's engine proved that time was still flowing.
Before long, Lu Li brought Fang Xun to a massive complex of buildings.
She casually drifted the car to a stop on a patch of grass.
"Good grief, is it this big?" Fang Xun got out of the car and looked at the buildings in admiration.
Lu Li also said with some emotion:
"The Remnant Beastss are supervised by Disaster Beast, working day and night without stopping. Remnant Beastss that die of exhaustion are directly recycled by the Disaster Beast and then put back into production. Of course it's fast. Let's go in and take a look. The things inside are truly breathtaking. Don't be too shocked."
Let's go in and take a look.
The things inside are truly breathtaking.
Don't be too shocked.
Fang Xun clicked his tongue and said:
"How shocking can it be? A crazy assembly line?"
Hearing this, Lu Li revealed an enigmatic expression.
