Chapter 122
Four, four people living together?
My God, this is the life of the rich!
Although the building manager was shocked, he smiled calmly and greeted them one by one, remembering their faces at a glance.
It's not that he has a good memory, it's that beautiful women all have a passive talent that makes them unforgettable!
After Su Quan and the three women moved into the building, the news that a mysterious Asian tycoon was living with three top-notch beauties quickly spread among the residents within just a few days.
Those who can afford to live here are mostly wealthy people, but after seeing Su Quan and his three beautiful women, these wealthy people secretly behave no differently than those losers.
Envious!
Envy!
Hatred!
They were all like lemons that had come to life, so sour they were unbearable!
Su Quan and Diana were not affected by these 'rumors' at all.
Helen was a personal cook, so it was normal for her to live in her employer's house.
Although Diana and Viniria have adapted to life in human society, some of their Amazons habits and values have not been changed.
For them, the house is like Themyscira, and the bedroom is like their own room on Themyscira. There's nothing wrong with that, right?
As for whether there will be any inconveniences in living together?
Honestly, they don't really have any!
Is there anything inconvenient about it?
It's just that people might dress more casually and lightly at home, but the level of exposure might not even compare to the armor on Themyscira.
Unlike human societies that prefer solitude and personal space, Themyscira is a communal society where people live together almost without distinction.
Living with others doesn't make them feel uncomfortable; it's living alone that makes them feel uneasy.
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Having long since adapted to modern life, Diana finally couldn't stand the monotonous home life and told Su Quan that she wanted to go out and work like an ordinary person.
Having anticipated this, Su Quan chuckled, took the coffee Viniria handed him, and said to Diana, "Remember the Natural History Museum we visited a while ago?"
"I remember."
Diana nodded. About a month ago, Su Quan took them to visit the Natural History Museum.
This Natural History Museum is very large and has a large collection. Diana had a deep understanding and interest in many of the historical artifacts and mythological items inside.
Su Quan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, saying, "I donated a large sum of money to them, so—you can start working at the museum tomorrow."
P. S.: My old problem has flared up again—rapid heartbeat, palpitations, and trembling. I guess it's from staying up late and being too tired lately.
The next day, in the morning.
At the Natural History Museum, Su Quan brought Diana to meet the director Carol.
Carol is a middle-aged Black woman who is very enthusiastic about Su Quan and Diana. When she learns that Diana wants to work at the museum, she personally interviews her.
She had originally planned to go easy on Diana during the interview, since she was brought by the museum's big spender and she should give her some face. However, Diana's amazing performance surprised her greatly.
After Carol confirmed that Diana possessed genuine talent and skills and was not just using her looks or connections to coast through her career, she immediately decided to have her start working.
Not only that, but they even arranged a private office for her and the work she would be responsible for after starting work.
After showing Su Quan and Diana the arranged offices, Carol eagerly asked Diana, "There's been a lot of work at the museum lately. When can you start work?"
Diana said impatiently, "I can do it now."
Carol glanced at Su Quan, and seeing that Su Quan did not object, she immediately smiled and said, "Great! Come with me, I'll arrange a job for you right away."
Diana looked at Su Quan Su Quan, who smiled and said, "Then I'll head back now. You focus on your work, and I'll pick you up tonight."
"Good."
Diana smiled and nodded, then, in her high heels and with her long legs, followed Carol away.
Su Quan did not leave the museum immediately, but instead wandered around the office area.
The office area contains many unverified antiques, and a large part of the employees' job is to verify the authenticity of these items, identify their origins, and determine their value.
He had no interest in these potentially priceless or significant items; what truly interested him was an employee who worked there.
After a quick tour, Su Quan soon found his target at the end of a secluded corridor.
Barbara Minerva
Su Quan's gaze followed the nameplate on the open door to a blonde woman in the office wearing a pink blouse and a beige skirt.
His first impression of this woman was that she had poor taste in clothing, was unkempt, and had a personality somewhat similar to Helen's back then. Because of her low self-esteem, she might have social anxiety.
What's even more striking is that once she can transform, the contrast will be even more astonishing Helen's.
Social anxiety disorder?
No way! After transforming, she's just a social butterfly!
Barbara Minerva will have a resounding name in the future: Cheetah!
Among Wonder Woman's many villains, only Cheetah can rival Ares, the God of War, in popularity and presence, and perhaps even surpass him.
Ares mainly appears in mythological and Wonder Woman -related storylines, while Cheetah is different; she is frequently hired and recruited, and has fought against many superheroes.
She possesses the strength, stamina, and speed of a cheetah, along with all of its senses; the Flash was once scratched on the leg by her while running.
Her claws and fangs, especially her fangs, can even pierce the skin of Kryptonians. Even more outrageous, those she bites are infected and turned into half-human, half-leopard beings, completely losing their own thoughts and having only killing on their minds. Superman was once infected.
Why did Su Quan travel back to 1984? It was for Cheetah Barbara Minerva and another major villain, Maxwell Lorenzano.
Especially the latter, whose abilities Su Quan is determined to possess!
"Uh—you, is there something you need?"
Barbara Minerva, who was looking for something, looked up and saw Su Quan standing at the door. His handsome face with exotic features and tall, upright figure made her subconsciously feel a little awkward.
Su Quan walked up to her confidently, smiling and extending his hand, saying, "My name is Su Quan. I recently donated some money to this place, which is why I have the opportunity to look around inside."
"Oh, I, my name is Barbara Minerva." Barbara Minerva clenched her fists quickly and nervously, then reached out to shake hands with Su Quan.
I know you!
After letting go, Su Quan said with a smile, "Geological research, gemology, petrology, and part-time cryptozoologist."
Barbara Minerva nodded repeatedly, flattered. "Yes, yes, oh my god, I never expected you to know me so well."
Su Quan raised the corners of his mouth. "Believe me, I know you better than you think."
"So you, you came here specifically to find me?" Barbara Minerva asked tentatively.
Su Quan smiled and shook his head, asking instead, "I have a batch of gemstones I want to sell. Could you help me appraise them?"
"One, a batch?"
"Yes, a batch."
Barbara Minerva thought for a moment, then hesitated and said, "It's working hours now, and I... I'm afraid I can't leave. If you're not in a hurry, I can help you with the appraisal after work..."
Su Quan thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have time at noon? Perhaps I can treat you to lunch, and you can take a look at my case while you're at it?"
"Okay, okay."
"Then it's settled. I'll pick you up at noon."
"Good."
Su Quan smiled, waved his hand, and turned to leave Barbara Minerva's office.
"Whoosh!"
Reaching a secluded corner, Su Quan instantly Teleportation home.
At noon, in a restaurant near the museum.
Barbara Minerva, who had already finished eating, was intently examining the jewelry that Su Quan had brought, while Su Quan was drinking juice and watching commercials on TV.
A man whose appearance and demeanor were strikingly similar to Trump (a homophone for "Chuanpu") was reciting advertising slogans with great enthusiasm.
"Welcome to the Black Gold Cooperative, the first oil company run by the people and serving the people. For just a small monthly fee, you can get a share of the world's most profitable industry."
Su Quan did not listen to what Maxwell Lorenzano was saying on TV.
This so-called "Black Gold Cooperative" is just a fraudulent shell company. Before long, investors will withdraw their funds, and the company will face bankruptcy.
Then, he found something that could be described as a divine artifact, or rather, a magical artifact.
A Yellow Crystal Wishing Stone!
This Yellow Crystal Wishing Stone is somewhat similar to Aladdin's lamp; touching it will grant any wish!
Sounds impressive, right?
