Mu Qianxue was not stupid. She knew that no matter how expensive these things were, they could never compare to the Supreme Saint Heart Lotus. Still, she was quite grateful to Ye Tianyi. She knew she was definitely getting ripped off, yet she was still willing to give it to him. He was rather handsome and probably not a bad person. At the very least, after getting along with him, she felt he was quite nice.
Finding a house was easy—just browse 85 Same City. Ye Tianyi had originally planned to rent her a nicer place. After all, she was a Fairy Sister, so naturally he had to rent a renovated apartment. That was why Ye Tianyi had been so careful with his calculations. The monthly rent for a renovated place would probably be two thousand yuan. With one month's rent as deposit and three months paid upfront, it would come to nearly ten thousand, right?
Then Ye Tianyi brought her to a renovated studio apartment fairly close to his home.
The landlord was a middle-aged man in his forties. He took them around to look at the apartment. Mu Qianxue was naturally quite satisfied, because she did not understand any of it. Her current standard for judging things was simply whether they looked good or not. It was the same with food. The apartment naturally looked good, and after Ye Tianyi paid the money, Mu Qianxue moved in.
"Are you two living together?"
The middle-aged landlord asked.
"No, she'll be living alone," Ye Tianyi said.
"Oh, alright. With such a beautiful young lady living here, I can rest easy about my apartment too."
After saying that, the middle-aged man left.
A sinister glint, as though woven from schemes, flickered in his eyes.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his entire life. If she really was living alone, then...
As the landlord, he naturally had a spare key to this apartment. When the time came...
Seriously, this woman gave him the urge to commit a crime. He was willing to commit one.
"What is this?"
Mu Qianxue wandered around the apartment. It was beautiful and cozy, so she was naturally very satisfied. But she did not understand a great many of the things inside. Pointing at the television, she asked Ye Tianyi.
Ye Tianyi turned on the television.
"This is called a TV. You can watch cartoons and TV dramas on it. They're filmed by us, and everything in them is fictional, but they're great for passing the time."
"How wondrous."
Ye Tianyi: "..."
Alright! Ye Tianyi understood. She was not uncultured—she genuinely did not know. And precisely because she did not know, she was Ye Tianyi's cash machine.
"Oh, right. As for supplies, blankets and such, I'll come find you tomorrow and take you out to buy them. Today, just stay home and familiarize yourself with these things first."
Mu Qianxue nodded.
"I'll go turn on the power switch and water valve for you. Later, I'll teach you how to use some everyday things and what they're for, along with how to use your phone."
After saying that, Ye Tianyi ran outside the door.
When Ye Tianyi came back in...
"Hey, stop that."
Ye Tianyi could not help shouting.
This woman was actually poking at the electrical outlet with her hand. One of the outlets happened to be missing its cover, and out of curiosity, she had poked her slender jade fingers inside.
Mu Qianxue turned around. Lightning could faintly be seen winding around her right hand. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly as she asked Ye Tianyi in surprise, "Why is Thunder Power hidden here?"
Ye Tianyi: "..."
Wow! Miss, did you have to be this adorable?
Ye Tianyi truly felt like he was going to love her to death. Damn it!
That little bit of electricity naturally could not hurt her. Ye Tianyi had only stopped her instinctively. Seeing someone poke an electrical outlet with their finger was just far too bizarre.
Ye Tianyi explained, "This actually isn't thunder. It's electricity, and it's fundamentally different from thunder. Look, for example, this TV can light up because electricity transmits energy to it. The same goes for the phone in your hand. Once its battery runs out, it shuts down and the screen goes black. You have to charge it with a charger before it can light up again."
"So that's how it is!"
She was not stupid at all. She simply did not know, and her ability to grasp things was extremely strong!
For the next three hours, Ye Tianyi taught Mu Qianxue how to use and what purpose all kinds of appliances served. He also installed several commonly used software applications on her phone, registered a WeChat ID for her, added himself as her friend, saved his number in her phone, and made sure she could use it for now. Only after transferring the remaining ten thousand yuan to her and teaching her how to make payments did Ye Tianyi leave.
"Phew—"
Ye Tianyi walked outside and let out a long breath.
This day had truly been filled with mystery and happiness!
Originally, he had planned to fleece her again over the rent, but Ye Tianyi genuinely felt too embarrassed. He had already swindled the Supreme Saint Heart Lotus from her—he really could not bring himself to swindle her again. If he was going to do it, it could wait until later. For now, Ye Tianyi was satisfied.
Then Ye Tianyi hurriedly returned home.
He was sure that the poison in Ye Xian'er's body would not pose a danger for the time being, which was why he had spent so long with Mu Qianxue. As for the task, there was no Task Punishment anyway, and it was too difficult. Completing it was probably impossible!
"System Miss, let me ask you something. If I fail to complete many of the tasks triggered in the Scumbag System, but their deadlines have already passed, will I still have a way to complete them in the future?"
Ye Tianyi voiced this doubt.
A system only lasted seven days. If the Ultimate Task was completed, the system would disappear immediately and switch to the next one. Tasks would be triggered during that time, and many of the rewards were highly tempting. Ye Tianyi naturally did not want them to simply disappear.
"Ding... In answer to the handsome little brother, as long as the Ultimate Task is successfully completed, the host may spend Swagger Value in the future to reactivate a certain system and continue some unfinished tasks within that system. However, the Ultimate Task and Ultimate Reward will no longer appear. If the Ultimate Task is not completed, that system will be permanently closed and cannot be reactivated."
Ye Tianyi scratched his head as he arrived at his front door.
"Then what if... say, with this Scumbag System, I only got one girlfriend? There wouldn't be any reward, of course, but there wouldn't be any punishment either. Could the system still be reactivated later?"
"Ding... Ten times the Swagger Value must be paid."
"How much is that?"
"Ding... Ten million."
Ye Tianyi: "..."
He had fought with his life on the line just to reach over ten million Swagger Value, and reactivating a system would cost ten million? Fine, you're ruthless! Then I'll just work hard to complete the task, alright?
Successfully confessing to two young ladies... Xing Baobao's side should not be much of a problem. But for the other one, who exactly had a score above ninety and could successfully be confessed to within these few days? At least among those who had appeared so far, it would be difficult.
Ye Tianyi opened the door and walked into the house.
Ye Xian'er's room was still tightly shut, but Ye Tianyi could sense spiritual energy surging within. She must still be trying her best to force the poison out.
Then Ye Tianyi opened the door and walked in.
8200/10000. Less than two thousand away from another bonus chapter. Everyone, charge! We're now eleventh on the free ranking list—charge, charge! Mwah...
