Chapter 40 hostess
Little Juan was already shocked speechless. A few hours ago, she was just a singing girl, but now, she had ascended to the heavens in a single step and was about to become the mistress of this grand manor.
A servant opened the door and welcomed the two into the hall. A beautiful middle-aged woman was already waiting there. She bowed and said, "I am the butler, Xiao Hong Xiu. If there is anything, please do so."
Li Qiang looked at her carefully. This woman had a handsome face and was very steady. Without batting an eyelid, he nodded and said, "Please arrange a place for us to stay. We are already very tired and would like to have a good rest."
After Xiao Hong Xiu left, Little Juan praised, "I really didn’t expect this day to come. Previously, I was even beaten up and scolded by my husband, but now ..." Li Qiang smiled and said, "There’s nothing impossible about being my woman. As long as I want to, you will become the happiest woman in the world."
Little Juan threw herself into Li Qiang’s embrace and said coquettishly, "But what about my husband?"
Li Qiang smiled and said, "That person is easy to deal with. I can easily find someone to deal with him." He thought to himself, "He’s a character in a game anyway, so there’s no harm in killing him."
Hearing this, Little Juan burst into tears. "I beg Master Li to let him off. We are husband and wife after all, and do not wish to harm his life. He was already severely injured when you kicked him downstairs, and will not cause you any more trouble."
Li Qiang frowned. "You haven’t forgotten him?"
Little Juan hurriedly explained, "Of course not, in my heart, there is only Master Li."
Li Qiang laughed heartily. "Since that’s the case, then sing a song for me. I haven’t heard enough from the restaurant just now."
Little Juan cleared her throat and immediately began singing a classic song for Li Qiang, "He Re, the Rising Sun". The song was pleasant to listen to and the melody was melodious, causing Li Qiang to sink into a state of infatuation.
After Xiaojuan finished singing, Li Qiang hugged her again with a smile and whispered into her ear, "I haven’t had enough fun just now. Can we go to her room to do something else?"
Little Juan nodded shyly as the two walked into the bedroom side by side. She was sitting on a luxurious bed. She had just unbuttoned her qipao, revealing her snow-white and alluring skin ...
Suddenly, a white light flashed, and the scene returned to the Barton family’s private room.
Li Qiang took off his helmet and shouted, "What’s going on, it’s about time to get excited, how come it ended?!"
Beside him, Ba Guang also looked dejected, "I heard that there’s a problem with the server. We can’t play today. Maybe another day."
Li Qiang said, "It’s really not fun at all. It’s too troublesome to always come over to your place. Can I play at home too?"
Ba Guang nodded, "As long as you fill out an application form, that game company will send someone to deliver the equipment there."
Li Qiang said, "How much does a machine like this cost?"
Ba Guang said, "So you didn’t know. This game is free of charge. Players can play it without paying."
Li Qiang asked with a puzzled expression, "Then why did you spend so much money?"
Ba Guang sighed and said, "Of course, players that don’t have money can go in to play, but why not? Even if you’re only a farmer, you have to have a piece of land first, right? No need to buy seeds, tools, fertilizers? If you’re a soldier, at least have a suit of armor. If you don’t have a weapon, you just have to wait to be killed! If your equipment is worse than others, then just wait to be beaten! Even if you want to become a robber, at the very least you have to buy a gun. If you have a gun, you have to buy bullets and all kinds of weapons. In short, no matter what kind of character you are, if you don’t have money in this game, the feeling won’t be pleasant, unless you’re a masochist and want to be beaten up, then I have nothing to say. The game side has understood everyone’s mindset. First, they say that everyone will be attracted here for free, and then they try to seduce you into spending the money. Do you understand? "
Li Qiang was enlightened and said, "So that’s how it is. But this game is too awesome. I really didn’t expect technology to reach such a level!"
Ba Guang laughed loudly. "I knew you would like this. How about it? "This city was built by us, we’ll give you half of it, you can be the chief executive, we’ll kill the universe with one man and one martial arts."
Li Qiang shook his head, "You’re really addicted. One thing to be careful, you have to stop everything when it’s enough. I always feel like this gamer’s goal is not pure."
Ba Guang said, "What’s so strange about that? People die for money, while birds die for food. Making this kind of game is just to make a lot of money. How normal is this?"
Li Qiang teased, "Yeah, this kind of person who can survive relies on an addictive person like you."
Ba Guang smiled. "Aren’t you the same? Honestly speaking, this game can let many people fall in love with it. It’s just that there’s something they need to dispel the loneliness in real life."
Li Qiang waved his hand and said, "Alright, you will soon become a philosopher. I have to go."
He looked at his phone and saw that Lin Ya Shi had called him quite a few times. It turned out that he had already spent seven hours in the game and the sky had already darkened. When he returned, Lin Ya Shi would definitely be furious!
When the lights were on, it was quite bustling with traffic. Li Qiang’s car turned onto a one-way street and was driving forward. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure on the sidewalk. It was Song Yan!
He was puzzled. Why did a little girl like her come out at such a late hour? Li Qiang, driven by curiosity, got the driver to slow down and slowly followed Song Yan through a few streets.
He finally turned into an alley where he couldn’t get into the car at all, so Li Qiang paid the bill and followed Song Yan into the alley. At this moment, she had already taken off his school uniform, changed into a brown jacket, and wore jeans and sneakers.
Li Qiang carefully followed behind her, afraid that Song Yan would discover that he was following her. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain his actions.
As a result, Li Qiang maintained a distance of 100 steps from Song Yan. After walking for about 20 minutes, Song Yan came to a stop in front of the entrance to a courtyard. This courtyard was just an ordinary courtyard. The red-painted gate was rather conspicuous. Unlike the other houses, there was a small red lantern hanging on the porch that emitted a faint light. It didn’t seem to be used for lighting purposes, so what purpose did it have?
He did not understand what was going on here, and did not want to leave immediately. While he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard someone from behind say, "What are you doing?!"
