Chapter 40: Business
In the past few days, I have rarely lived a "pig" life, eating, sleeping, and eating every day, so I am not easy and happy.
Huayan is the opposite of me, sitting in front of the computer every day and not knowing what to fiddle with, she will go out at night and come back in the middle of the night, but I feel that she looks good and is in a happy mood, so I can't help but ask her, "Have you found any interesting things in life?" β
She glanced at me, carefully painted bright red nail polish on her toes, and said, "Of course, Hongchen is really fun, much more fun than me cultivating in the mountains." And you see, isn't it very meaningful for me to be self-reliant, and I don't have to be a rice worm for you to raise me? β
"You've got a job?" I was a little surprised, and I came over to look at the computer screen to see what she was doing.
Unexpectedly, she immediately turned off the computer and asked mysteriously, "Guess how I make money every day, faster than you have to work hard for a year?" β
I was stunned for a long time before answering, "Stock trading? β
It seems that only stock speculation can make money every day, right? I think.
She shook her head, rolled her eyes, and continued to paint her toenails.
"Lottery?" I continue to guess.
She continued to shake her head, a look of disdain.
"Fund?"
"Not really."
"Then it's impossible to be a dancer and earn tips, right?" I deliberately stimulated her, trying to trick her into telling the truth.
Hua Yan sneered, "Yun Ya, your mind is too dirty, right?" Is that kind of role right for me? Although I am a vixen, I am pure, so I disdain to use charm. Of course, my charm is also very good, and there are few people in the world who can not be tricked. β
"Oh, then why didn't you use charm that black monster and the human head that night?"
"Are you stupid?" She was really stimulated by me and jumped up and retorted, "Those are all thoughtless puppets, okay?" Enchantment, naturally, is to use spells to charm the minds of living beings, they don't have thoughts, how can I charm? β
I laughed and turned to make my coffee, thinking to myself that with her personality, if I continued to ask her, she would be in a good tone, and if I didn't give a damn, she would take the initiative to tell me, so why bother?
Seeing that I really didn't ask, and was still carelessly stirring my coffee beans, Hua Yan really couldn't help but come over and asked me, "Why didn't you guess?" Aren't you curious? Don't you want to know how I made money every day? Don't you want to learn? β
"No need, I'm not interested." I glanced at her, poured the churned beans into the coffee pot, poured some more milkshakes, flipped the switch, and turned to walk away from her.
As I expected, Hua Yan immediately caught up, and took the initiative to confess with a look of uncontrollable expression, "You are so boring, I won't say it if you ask a few more questions." Okay, okay, let me tell you, I opened an online shop, mainly doing cleaning services. β
"Clean?" I was stunned and turned my head to look at her, "Is it clean and hygienic or clean and filthy?" β
"Of course it's an exorcism, you see," she said with some pride, pulled me to the computer desk, pressed the screen that had just been turned off, and saw an online store with a very supernatural decoration in front of me, with a signboard called: Exorcism Jingzhai.
"You designed this?" I gave a few words of praise and swiped the mouse to admire her shop.
The goods sold are all cleaning tools, what insect repellent water, mopping king, dazzling, it's really like that. But I knew in my heart that her cleaning shop was just a faΓ§ade, and no one would be stupid enough to think that her shop was selling cleaning tools. What kind of cow tears, what black dog blood, are really used to drive away evil spirits and avoid evil.
I was very impressed, but I was also a little curious, "You can also get rid of demons and subdue demons?" β
"I'm a fox fairy," Hua Yan was a little proud when she heard this, "You don't understand, our nine-tailed fox clan is born with a fairy fetus, and it is essentially different from ordinary fox demons." It's just that in the battle of that year, the demons and monsters in the dust were all cleaned up by the descendants of the exorcist Jingzhai, and the demons and monsters remaining in the world at the moment may not exceed a hundred. β
"You mean to say that there are other demons and monsters in this world besides you?" I couldn't help but widen my eyes and ask in disbelief.
Hua Yan didn't know what to think, her expression was a little sad, "More than 20 years ago, our fox fairy clan was still very prosperous, but unfortunately the demon clan was in civil strife back then, and some demon clan powerhouses brewed a human catastrophe in order to resurrect the demon king who died thousands of years ago, and several masters of our fox fairy family were killed in that battle." Although in the end, the evil prevailed, and all the demons and monsters were eliminated by the descendants of the exorcist Jingzhai family, and the expulsion was expelled, but our fox fairy clan was also completely withered, and now only I am the only one left. β
I listened to her so mysterious, and after digesting it for a while, I asked, "Did a human catastrophe really happen more than 20 years ago?" Why haven't we heard anything about it? β
"Nature is to be erased, is it possible that the hype has caused panic among the people? I'm afraid that those who knew about what happened back then have already died, and most of the aliens left behind now are lucky enough to survive that disaster, such as our fox fairy clan, such as that charm, or your good neighbors. Hua Yan raised her eyebrows, cleaned up her loneliness and stopped continuing the topic.
Suddenly, there was a "ding" sound in the computer, and she smiled, "Business is coming." I was not interested in this business, and I didn't want to easily provoke demons and monsters, so I took the initiative to leave, planning to have a good afternoon's sleep.
Unexpectedly, I had just walked to the door of the room when I heard Hua Yan ask behind me, "Yun Ya, I'll remove the demon at night, aren't you interested in going together?" I think you're a great fit for this job. β
"Thanks, but I'm sorry, I'm not interested," I rolled my eyes at her and slammed the door shut.
Are you kidding? It's extraordinary, I wish I was just an ordinary person, and I wouldn't have met those legendary aliens in my life.
I slept very deeply, and in a daze, I seemed to hear something noisy, so I could only sit up with my eyes closed and reach out to pull the lamp on the bedside table.
The blinding light made me wait a few more moments before I opened my eyes and looked at my phone on my desk.
It was already more than one o'clock in the middle of the night, and the noisy voice on the desktop was Hua Yan's missed call, which was as many as twelve times, which made me feel a pang in my heart and hurriedly dialed back.
However, I was stunned for a while, and vaguely remembered that she said that she took over the business tonight to get rid of the demon, but why did she call me in the middle of the night? Did something go wrong?
I immediately jumped out of bed, hurriedly washed up, turned on the computer, and looked up her chat history.
It took me a while to find the customer's address, which was more than an hour away from my community, which was quite a headache. I had to take a picture of the address with my phone, put on a down jacket and go out.
When the door closed, I hesitated for a moment, thinking if I needed to call Ling Kai? After all, with him, there shouldn't be any demons and monsters who can make waves. But then I thought about it, I can't rely on him for everything, he is not my person after all, at best he can only be regarded as an ordinary friend, even if he has saved my life a few times, but I can't use him as a life-saving straw, rely on everything. Once dependence becomes a habit, I can no longer live without him, so how can I continue my life in the future?
At this thought, I no longer hesitated and hurried into the elevator.
When I drove my car out of the parking lot, I tried to get in touch with Hua Yan, but no matter how I dialed, it was turned off, and I didn't know what was going on, so I just fidgeted and felt like a pot.
