Chapter 381 Coming from the future
After the four-wheel car competition started, Qian Qian left the venue early on the pretext of feeling unwell.
She got on a simple carriage outside the field, and in the carriage Wu Wanwan and Taoer helped her disguise herself.
Not long after, a handsome young man with a dark complexion got off the carriage.
Qianqian asked Wu Wanwan and Taoer to wait in the carriage, and he walked alone on the crowded street.
[Tongzi, which direction did the dogwood go? ]
The system was suspicious, [Qianqian, I feel a little strange, but I can eat the melon of Lucia's confidant. ]
[It was he who brought the dogwood to the posthouse. They should be almost at Hongsheng Restaurant.]
Qian Qian looked up at the crowd on the street, [Yes, there are too many people outside the arena, and the carriage will definitely not be able to pass through.]
While chatting with the system, Qian Qian was quickly approaching Lucia's confidant.
The system's melon-eating attribute is turned on. [Money, this confidant is also a talent. ]
【Talent? 】
【What kind of talents? 】
[Don’t be fooled by his short stature,] the system sneered, [he secretly used the tribute from the Great Domain Kingdom to exchange a lot of our silk, porcelain, and energy stones.]
[I plan to make a fortune when I return to Dayu Country. ]
Money money...
[Heh, the premise is that he can go back. ]
system……
【Hehe, not only that. 】
[This confidant is not that loyal to Lucia. He plays both sides and says one thing to Lucia in front of her and another behind her back.]
[In the Great Domain, his subordinates managed part of Lucia's industry. ]
[Before coming to Daxia, he had secretly transferred Lucia's property to his own name.]
【oh? 】
Qian Qian joked, "This guy is quite good at planning."
[Yes,] the system sighed, [Poor Lucia was kept in the dark and knew nothing.]
Qian Qian shook his head, "That only shows that Lucia is not good at judging people."
The system sneered, "Not only is she inaccurate in judging people, but more importantly, she actually trusted her confidant so much that it was speechless."
Qian Qian thought for a while, [Maybe she thinks that humans and animals are weak and can't make any waves with her.]
[If you dare to betray me, I will directly suck the vitality of humans and animals. ]
[Uh,] the system said, [It's not impossible.]
[By the way, I just ate the melon from the inn. ]
The system said in a cold tone, "There were originally more than 300 people in the envoy group, but now there are less than 240 people left."
[Oh? You mean someone is missing? ]
[Yes,] the system clicked its tongue twice, [Lucia seems to be quite anxious these days, and has absorbed the vitality of many members of the envoys.]
[But that's not right,] Qian Qian wondered, [She absorbed the vitality of the members of the envoys, but no bodies were found in the posthouse.]
The system chuckled twice, [Lucia has a corrosive potion that can corrode the entire corpse within three hours.]
[After the body has decayed, only a pool of water and a few shrunken bones remain. If you bury it anywhere, no one will find it.]
Money money...
[Tongzi, do you think absorbing the vitality of humans and animals will be addictive for Kuangsha? ]
[Of course,] the system explained, [Anyway, although Lucia has been very anxious recently, her mental state is not bad.]
[Most importantly, she became younger again.]
[Hmm,] Qian Qian frowned in disgust, [I want to kill Lucia right now.]
[However, are there any useful people in the Great Domain Kingdom's envoys? ]
[If there are talented people in the delegation, it would be a pity if Lucia wasted them. ]
The system sighed, [Then I have to eat the melon in person to find out. ]
[Okay,] Qian Qian curled her lips, [I will summon the envoys from the Great Territory to the palace tomorrow.]
As they were talking, Lucia's confidant had already brought Zhuyu to the door of the inn.
Zhu Yu was unwilling to enter, "I will not go in for now. I want to take advantage of the hustle and bustle to stroll around here."
Although Qianqian was still some distance away from the two of them, he could clearly hear Zhuyu's words.
Lucia's confidant narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and nodded, "Mrs. Lucia won't be back so soon, you can go shopping if you want."
Qian Qian looked at Zhu Yu's figure. The girl was tall and looked to be about twenty-two or twenty-three years old.
There was an arrogant look on his face and his eyes looked down on everyone on the street as if he looked down on them.
His appearance is ordinary, and there is nothing particularly outstanding about him.
【Tongzi,】 Qianqian folded his arms and looked at Zhuyu, 【Who is she?】
system……
【I can’t eat her melon. 】
【oh? 】
Qian Qian was slightly surprised, [Is there nothing to eat? ]
[I only know,] the system said unwillingly, [her family used to run a grain and oil shop in the suburbs of Beijing.]
[This girl fell seriously ill three days ago. After waking up, she went to Wulong Mountain alone and dug up a hundred-year-old ginseng.]
[The 100-year-old ginseng was of excellent quality and therefore sold for a good price. She asked her parents to sell their house and shop in the suburbs of Beijing.]
[I rented a house and shop in the downtown area of South City and taught my parents the unique braised food craft. 】
[Now, her family's braised food business is booming, and it won't be long before her family can buy a house in Nancheng District.]
[Well, houses in the southern part of the city are not cheap. ]
Qian Qian tilted his head, [You know a lot. ]
[But,] the system sighed, [That’s all I know, as to whether this girl was reborn or traveled through time.]
[I don’t know how it came about.]
Money money...
[That is to say, you are now restricted and cannot eat the Precognition Melon at all. ]
[Whether it's Daxia's or an individual's. ]
[Yeah,] the system is down, [Alas.]
[It's okay,] Qian Qian raised his hand and called the secret guard to whisper a few words, [Our Lin family's secret guards are not vegetarians.]
After the secret guard took the order and left, Zhuyu entered a bookstore.
Qianqian followed leisurely, but Zhuyu was so arrogant that she didn't notice her at all.
After looking around the bookstore, Zhuyu picked up a book, looked at the cover, frowned slightly, and muttered softly.
"Didn't it say that there must have been time travelers during the reign of Emperor De?"
"If it really exists, why not promote simplified Chinese characters?"
"There are too many gestures," Zhu Yu put the book back where it was, "and it's too hard to read. It's troublesome."
Money money...
[Tongzi, this girl is so arrogant. ]
system……
[Qianqian, I don’t think I like her very much.]
[So what if I came from the future? Why are you so arrogant? What's so great about it? Humph.]
【Who hasn’t come from the future? 】
Qian Qian pursed her lips and smiled softly, [Alright, alright, don't be angry, it's not worth it,]
"What do you mean, young lady?"
A man's voice interrupted Qian Qian's comfort to Tongzi. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw the waiter greeting customers in the store looking at Zhuyu with sweat on his forehead.
Qianqian lowered his gaze to look at Zhuyu's hand, in which she was holding an unpacked ink refill pen.
The pen was broken into two in Zhuyu's hand, and the servant in the store had red eyes and kept wiping his sweat.
Zhu Yu sneered, "What's the big deal about this little thing? This thing is extremely backward technology and should have been eliminated long ago..."
