"There's something fishy, very fishy indeed." Ah Qing had a suspicious look on her face as she sized up the little fox. Just now, Momo only mentioned on WeChat that there's a New Year's gift to be delivered to the little fox, but didn't describe what was in the inter-province courier. Yet the little fox somehow called out the gift itself right away.
Moreover, given Ah Qing's knowledge of Momo.
If you mention some exceptionally outstanding cuisine, no matter if the price is thirty or fifty thousand per person, Momo would have to check out what's going on with the opposing business, pricing it so boldly.
But if you say there's a 70% sale on luxury items, Momo wouldn't even bother to take a look, even if buying and reselling could earn quite a profit, Momo would still ignore it.
Momo is someone who wouldn't spend extra on things outside her interests.
The computer that Momo arranged for a dedicated car to transport must be extremely expensive in terms of price.
"Spill it, you and Momo, is there some kind of sneaky business between you two?"
"Otherwise, why would Momo give you a computer?" Ah Qing pinched the little fox's small hand and asked, staring intently:
"Be honest with me, so I can prepare a return gift! Otherwise shouldn't you be worried that Momo Aunt secretly takes you online to do business with such a costly gift?"
"I've heard that in the pet gigolo business, you can earn thousands in just one go, and with a pretty little fox like you, business will surely be booming—"
Ah Qing looked at the little fox, speaking seriously about some frightening content.
"An award and still take money?"
Ansheng, having heard Ah Qing's warning, instinctively showed a proud expression and said happily.
"Are you crazy! You little rascal Xiaolan!"
Ah Qing's expression froze, she grabbed the little fox's shoulder, shaking him hard as if trying to wake him up.
"Just... just joking." Ansheng's head was shaking back and forth from Ah Qing's shaking, said nonchalantly, raising his little fox hand to rest on Ah Qing's wrist:
"The reason Momo gave me the computer is to repay me for saving her when her Spiritual Particles went out of control, and also as a thank you gift for me willing to cooperate with her as a photoshoot partner..."
Ansheng spoke righteously, talking about him being a photoshoot partner.
"Isn't that still selling your looks..." Ah Qing slightly ridiculed, touched the little fox's head.
If Momo gave the little fox a computer before, Ah Qing wouldn't have minded much.
But.
Over the time before the holiday when they returned home, Ah Qing always felt that the way Momo looked at the little fox seemed to carry a slight... strange satisfaction?
Of course.
Ah Qing wasn't worried about Momo having ulterior motives, rather concerned that their complementary natures might lead them astray together.
Both their personalities delight in watching drama unfold. Wouldn't they stir up some big news colluding together?
Fortunately, it's just photoshoots, not something else... Ah Qing silently breathed a sigh of relief and made a phone call.
"Hello? Brother, are you home? There's a package at my door, can you sign for it for me?"
"Package? Oh, oh... you mean the freight, right? I'm just here at the Fox Immortal Temple having tea, I'll climb up the tree later to sign it for you."
Receiving Ah Qing's call, Chen Nian beat his chest assuring her he'll retrieve the package for her, no worries whatsoever.
"On the tree...." Ah Qing's expression paused, staring at the hung up phone, then back at the little fox, an expression of disbelief: "This fee... definitely needs extra."
Ah Qing, in her heart, quipped: This courier truly had it rough.
Yet, when did the village's Paw Patrol gain such aggressiveness, it shouldn't be like this.....
...
Back on Qingao Island, compared to the four or fifty people when leaving, the number returning reached two hundred, with the crab-eating macaques alone taking up a hundred and four.
Arriving at the Spirit Beast Gang's territory, given that the Spirit Beast Gang was in a stable phase, Master Fuli assigned the crab-eating macaques to work at the promotion section of the Homeless House.
Coincidentally, they had previous management experience with AK Media company, which was quite fitting, so in the future, they could assist Ah Qing's video team and work on matrix numbers.
The rash monkeys hold down the crab-eating macaques.
Ansheng returned to the hotel, propping up his feet while waiting for Ah Qing to help him take a bath, he opened the Wish List interface, gazing at the displayed data.
[Physique: 240]
[Wisdom: 198]
[Wish Power: 44]
"Just invest 12 Wish Power into Wisdom, and I can ascend to seven tails, and the remaining Wish Power can lift me to eight tails..."
Ansheng lounged on the sofa, casually sipping iced cola through a straw, a slight grin forming.
Not long after returning from the holiday, that bastard Chen Nian got him 6 points of Wish Power.
However, his Wish Power isn't easy to accumulate, likely needing to provide after-sales service, otherwise, with his occasionally bizarre imagination, he's likely to get himself killed.
Sea Hare Wish Power +3, but there's not much to say about their family, just that their abilities are somewhat exceptional, a light bite can reverse yin and yang, quite academically valuable.
And the real big chunks of Wish Power were gained from the two battles in the Furui City battle.
The Forest Wolf camp Wish Power +9, the accumulated bad deeds over time were reaped like crops, and the most juicy was the Mayflower Leader, who contributed a whopping 23 points of Wish Power.
This week's wish gains were practically equivalent to a poor performance month in total.
"Yet, still following Shasha's advice, spent half a month's worth of time to fuse three cells...."
Ansheng browsed through the Wish List, looked at the numerous wishes listed, and showed a contemplative expression.
The nine-tailed Physique has reached its extreme.
Or rather... it has reached what the Mayflower Leader mentioned during arguments, a term called [Surface Overlord].
And with the progression of Wish Power points, Ansheng could feel he wasn't lacking strength at present.
Just as Shasha said, he had reached the point where he needed to reconstruct his Physique, streamline redundant genetic codes to construct a new version of the [Life Blueprint System].
Aligning Physique and Wisdom to unlock the true [Extraordinary Power].
So, seeing the stored 44 points of Wish Power in the Wish List, Ansheng revealed a thoughtful expression.
Internally plotting to gather Shasha and Sun Xingyao for extra work, to assist in completing compatibility.
"Is Master Fuli in the room? I just heard from Ah Bai that you've returned..."
While Master Fuli was mulling over things, Lin Ying's cheerful call sounded from outside the door.
"Here!"
Hearing Lin Ying's voice, Ansheng snapped out of his pondering and responded toward the door, "I'll come open the door..."
The little fox flipped over from the hotel sofa, stepping toward the door, jumping up to paw at the door lock.
"You're just in time, I just thought of something to deliberate with you...."
Seeing Lin Ying, Ansheng naturally stood up on his hind legs and reached out his arms, while Lin Ying scooped him up, her expression joyful:
"Whatever needs discussing, feel free to speak...."
"What I want to say is, the Fox Immortal Palace is finished, and you'll be able to move into your new home soon!"
"Fox... Fox what?" Ansheng's expression froze, looking at Lin Ying with astonishment.
