Su Ang believed she could deceive others, but wasn’t sure if she could deceive Su Xingchen.
Before entering this instance, when Gong Qiang said he could send her instance attribute rewards, he suspected whether Gong Qiang had received a private message from Su Xingchen.
After all, the attribute rewards for A-level instances would likely need his father to intervene to sway others in making this decision.
Has father learned something?
Does he want Qian Qi to be the next him?
"In a bit, you..." Su Ang intended to warn Qian Qi to be cautious of Su Xingchen, but Gong Qiang suddenly came out of the meeting tent and shouted at them, "Hey, you two, come over for a meeting! Let’s discuss the B-level instance and housing issues."
Upon hearing this, Qian Qi immediately shot up from the small stool, enthusiastically rushing into the tent.
Su Ang dropped his hand that was about to stop her by the shoulder, and shook his head slightly in resignation as he followed.
Once inside the tent, Qian Qi saw several family heads, including the presidents of the Three Major Associations, and even Principal Zheng, all projected onto the chairs beside the conference table. When she entered, everyone directed their gaze towards her.
"Wow, is this a holographic projection?" Qian Qi was seeing such a thing for the first time. Curiously, she approached each family head, waving her hand individually in front of them, and poked two fingers at their noses.
"Oh, it really is a holographic projection~ Can you all see me?"
Without her helmet, her scarred face came into full view as she boldly approached them, amplifying her face directly before their eyes—her overly familiar manner was socially terrorizing even for the family heads, who silently shifted back a bit.
Does she even realize how dreadful and scary her face looks?
Principal Zheng watched Qian Qi walk into the tent, noticing her marked face, he couldn’t help but frown slightly in sympathy.
This child, truly unaware of pain, managed to endure without treatment just to disguise her identity.
Tang Yunde and Wei Bisheng immediately recognized Qian Qi; they had heard her voice closely and were familiar with the aura she presented, so they affirmed the online speculations that "Brother Dog is Qian Qi."
Especially Tang Yunde, whose gaze at Qian Qi became increasingly peculiar; while at Sealed City, he even speculated that she might bypass the B-level instance entirely to challenge an underground A-level dungeon, only for her to deny it.
Indeed, she wasn’t! She clearly aims to find the underground A-level dungeon and contract A-level magical beasts!
Su Ang clearly told her she couldn’t find the underground dungeon! How foolish of him to believe this child wouldn’t lie and actually trust her!
Seeing Su Ang follow in, Tang Yunde cast a rather resentful look his way.
Su Ang silently shifted his gaze away.
"Master, sit here," Nangong Yan pulled out a chair and smiled at Qian Qi.
Qian Qi glanced around the room, discovering that only Nangong Yan had an empty seat, so she strode over and sat down.
Su Ang paused for a moment, then walked over to stand beside Su Xingchen’s projection.
"Now that we’re all here, let’s begin." Su Xingchen gave Su Ang a glance then withdrew his gaze and looked across at Qian Qi, "Not sure how to address you?" Read full story at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
"My surname is Qian, just call me Little Qian," said Qian Qi with a slight smile, her demeanor incredibly modest. Yet her opening remark caused the ten authority figures to exchange knowing glances.
Principal Zheng was also surprised, not understanding why Qian Qi would expose her identity.
"Are you the Qian Qi student who helped freshmen in the Beast Taming Department all contract D-level magical beasts?" an elderly man in a black kupao asked, squinting slightly, his gaze towards Qian Qi filled with interest and scrutiny.
Qian Qi also scrutinized this elderly man; with Tang Yunde and Wei Bisheng present, this black kupao elder must be the president of the Beast Taming Association, Yan Wuji?
She smiled, and a thick pride arose in her eyes, "Qian Qi? Oh, so you all know her! She’s my girlfriend!"
As soon as she spoke, the room fell into a strange silence and lifeless stillness.
What’s going on? How did a girlfriend suddenly come out of nowhere?
And as the Seven Great Families fell into silence without having time to reply, Qian Qi crossed her legs and began speaking eloquently, "How about it? Isn’t she super outstanding~? Let me tell you, when I first met her, her heroic spirit captivated me completely; you can’t possibly imagine the scene! At the time..."
Qian Qi went on and on about her love story with "Qian Qi", speaking ceaselessly without giving others a chance to interrupt; it was only when she couldn’t continue, mouth dry, that she slicked back her fringe with a greasy motion and lamented, "You can’t possibly guess why she chose me as her boyfriend. Of course, the secondary reason is I am very excellent, excellent enough to compete with her, and the primary reason is my surname is Qian, same as hers. Both surnamed Qian, so our future children will also be surnamed Qian, money producing money..."
"Hahahaha, isn’t she adorable? Money producing money, hahahahaha—how could she come up with such an adorable concept~ As expected of my girlfriend~~~"
Principal Zheng quietly covered his face, unwilling to admit the shamelessly self-praising person was his student, Su Ang slightly tilted his head and pressed his thin lips tight, yet his lips couldn’t help but curve upwards. Sikong Lin, who had just completed the Sealed City A-level dungeon, also felt a twitch at the corners of his mouth, watching Qian Qi wearing his wife’s Defense Armor prattle away, feeling it no longer matched his wife.
Only Nangong Yan stood behind her, applauding particularly enthusiastically, "Master Qian, your love story with your girlfriend is truly moving, both of you are truly outstanding individuals."
Qian Qi waved her hand, signaling "Oh, it’s nothing."
"Are you really not Qian Qi?" He Family head He Yao Bai looked at Qian Qi suspiciously. To be honest, like other family heads, he had secretly investigated this Qian Qi, and he could say the physique, contracted beast, and conduct of this person in front of him matched Qian Qi exactly.
"No, how could I be my girlfriend?" Qian Qi said puzzled, "What gave you such an illusion?"
"Your contracted beast..."
"What’s so unusual about having the same contracted beast as my girlfriend? Can’t I rely on her financially?" Qian Qi slammed the table, incensed, "My wife dotes on me, are you jealous and envious? If you have the guts, go rely on someone financially!"
Pfft, relying financially is something to be proud of, huh?!
"Do you think I’m so short and ugly no one would love me? Do you believe I’m unworthy of Qian Qi!" He Yao Bai retreated, but Qian Qi grew more combative, directly climbing onto the conference table and starting to crawl towards He Yao Bai in the gloom, "Do you look down on me? Want to steal my wife? Let me tell you, there’s a kind of love that doesn’t care about appearance; even with my wrecked face, she loves me to death because I am definitely the most outstanding, awesome man in this world, unique!"
How could she not love herself?
She’s so narcissistic!
