Chapter 1036 1034 1-029

Chapter 1036: Chapter 1034 1-029 Chapter 1036: Chapter 1034 1-029 “Miss Ji is now of age and, as per tradition, needs to take responsibility for certain matters.”

After passing on the letter and seeing that Fu Qian and his companion said nothing for a moment, Jia Keke continued to explain.

“For the sake of saving her energy, I will stay here as her assistant.”

“I just arrived today, and it was too late, so I thought I’d visit you tomorrow. I didn’t expect to encounter you here; it’s quite a coincidence…”

That made sense, quite reasonable, indeed.

Lanaia naturally knew something about Liushuang’s background.

So, was this visit home actually because of this matter?

The reason she gave to the Academy was that there was an issue at home… This kind of large-scale matter, involving allocation issues, often isn’t that simple. Some complexities are hardly surprising.

Lanaia silently nodded.

However, this only explained Jia Keke’s background, and even made another assumption terrifying—love letters, from Liushuang?

For a moment, she couldn’t help but stare at Fu Qian.

Private tutoring outside of class, he couldn’t possibly mean it, right? But that’s miles apart…

As the gossip intrigue blazed, she saw Fu Qian lower his head and had already opened the letter.

Such audacity, but both Lanaia and Jia Keke instinctively looked away.

Fortunately, Fu Qian read quickly, and put down the letter in less than ten seconds, sparing them any further agony.

“Thank you for your hard work, please continue to look after Liushuang in the future.”

However, the first thing he said after reading the letter instantly made the atmosphere eerie.

“You are too kind… It’s my duty.”

This full-on elder’s entrustment demeanor… Jia Keke seemed at a loss on how to respond.

Assisting in handling matters, so Miss Liushuang has gained control of the Gospel Group?

Seeing Jia Keke’s reaction, Fu Qian silently thought to himself.

At Silver Mist Manor, he had witnessed Liushuang killing Ji Ping with a sword, but he wasn’t concerned with the minute details of their conversation.

However, as long as Ji Xun and his group weren’t foolish, using the Gospel Group as a bargaining chip was the most normal choice.

He had been leading with a lantern the whole time, making no attempt to conceal himself; they only needed to investigate a bit more to find out about personnel number 233 from the Gospel Group, who had hinted at something similar.

Such an infiltration by a Demigod proved the Rebirth Club’s interest in the Gospel Group.

For Liushuang, accepting this condition would effectively enhance her mother’s safety from more than one angle; there was no reason to pass it up.

Also, Miss Liushuang’s assistant, along with Siren’s decisive assassination attempt on Emperor Yasui’s decoy, both confirmed the role the Ji Family played in this operation against Yasui.

“I have another favor to ask—please relay to Miss Liushuang that I received her letter, and she is always welcome to visit my laboratory.”

Fu Qian waved his hand, yet the gesture became more courteous.

“To show my gratitude, this meal is on me.”

“How could that be?”

Jia Keke almost stood up immediately.

“I’ll definitely relay the message, but how could I let you pay?”

“Don’t worry, I can expense it.”

…

In the end, Jia Keke didn’t dare continue with the pleasantries. Being new and not knowing what was appropriate to discuss with the Academy Professors who frequented the tavern at midnight, she soon excused herself back to her place and left after a few minutes.

“Did she write to you about something important, Miss Liushuang?”

As soon as Jia Keke left, Lanaia couldn’t hold back her curiosity any longer.

“Not at all, just expressing congratulations and her aspiration for academic research,” Fu Qian replied casually as he refolded the letter.

This was the truth; how could Miss Liushuang entrust important information to an assistant she didn’t know well?

The content of the letter was simple: congratulations on attaining Demigod status, her matters were going smoothly, and she’d be able to return soon.

Furthermore, she emphasized that although she couldn’t be his student, she was very interested in his academic research. If any experiments or exploratory actions needed volunteers, she hoped to be considered first.

Fu Qian’s response, naturally passed on by Jia Keke, was “no problem.”

…

The aspiration towards academic research at Heaven’s Commencement Institute… Jian Jingzheng and his colleagues would probably be worried enough to lose sleep over it.

Lanaia sighed. Although she had initially thought the interpretation of a love letter was absurd, she wasn’t entirely convinced by Fu Qian’s explanation.

Such a serious matter, and all for this trivial issue?

Even going so far as to send someone ahead to deliver it, as if afraid of not finding someone later.

Nonetheless, it’s someone else’s privacy; even if it were a real love letter, there’s no regulation against it at the Academy.

Shaking her head, feeling the juicy gossip was quite potent, Lanaia poured herself another drink.

Unknowingly, a bottle was already empty, and the red hue outside was gradually fading.

It seemed like nothing major had happened.

…

“Has it been paid already?”

Lanaia wasn’t particularly fond of drinking; after drinking two more bottles, she was ready to head home.

However, when she was about to let Fu Qian foot the bill, the landlady’s response surprised her.

“Your friend had already put enough money under the bowl when she left to cover the drinks here; I think I understood her intention correctly.”

“This was what you meant by offering to pay?”

Realizing something, without caring that the landlady was right there, Lanaia glared at Fu Qian.

“If you hadn’t mentioned it, she might not have dared to be so proactive… Is this your way of treating someone?”

“Isn’t this how all academic leaders treat guests?”

Fu Qian looked surprised as he turned to look at the landlady.

“Could you please write me a receipt?”

“Where’s the money in your hidden compartment? Take it out, I need two more bottles of wine.”

The other party didn’t deny it at all, and Lanaia said through gritted teeth.

“It’s empty; I just wanted to show you that I indeed carry money.”

Fu Qian patted his waist.

“However, two more bottles are no problem, but you’ll need to cover the cost and ask the landlady for an extra receipt.”

Actually, this had been his original plan for treating.

…

[Warning, leakage incident]

The eventful night life finally came to an end, and after bidding farewell to the shocked Lanaia, Fu Qian returned to his lab before midnight.

The Red Moon had faded, but he wasn’t yet ready to rest.

As he removed his mask, a prompt eagerly appeared.

[Name: Blind Eye, Code: 1-029]

[Today’s work content has been updated, enter the containment scene of 1-029, complete re-containment]

[Do you want to consume 1 SAN Point to start?]

It was going to be a big job indeed.

[Yes]

With a sigh, Fu Qian confirmed without any hesitation.
