When Su Ang arrived at Bright Orphanage, Qian Qi was sitting on a small stool in the front yard, washing clothes with two children.
The Black Luxury Hovercar landed silently in the yard, instantly capturing the attention of many children. They gathered around, excitedly inspecting the hovercar.
Even though they had seen Brother Sikong’s hovercar before, and he had even taken them for a ride, that couldn’t diminish their curiosity about other hovercars.
Qian Qi wrung out the wet little garnt in his hand, glanced at the silver-haired youth who, after getting out of the car, was squatting on one knee to hand out candies to the children, and lightly raised an eyebrow.
"Qian Qi, isn’t that person...?" The child next to him scrubbing clothes, turned his head for a look, and imdiately widened his eyes. "Su Dagu?!"
Su Dagu?
Qian Qi couldn’t help but burst out laughing. Is that an abbreviation for Su Ang, the grand commander? Could it be a nickna given to him by the children?
However, even the children from the isolated orphanage knew about his identity, which was quite surprising to Qian Qi.
Su Ang finished handing out candies, stood up, and walked toward Qian Qi, his deanor as cool and sharp as ever. Using that indifferent tone, he offered a polite greeting, "Junior Qian Qi, it’s been a long ti."
"Junior Qian Qi" was just about to return a comrcial smile, when she saw Su Ang reach into the inner pocket of his black trench coat and hand her a black card, "I ca in a hurry and didn’t have ti to buy gifts for the children, nor do I know what you need. Consider this as my contribution to the orphanage."
Qian Qi looked down at the black card: !!!
He’s so handso! How can he be so handso! What the director said couldn’t be further from the truth; clearly, the more beautiful a person, the kinder they are!
Qian Qi put away the black card, her face breaking into a brilliant smile like a blooming chrysanthemum as she eagerly asked, "Senior Su, have you eaten? Are you hungry? Are you tired? Co co co, this way, please!"
Qian Qi stuffed the wrung-out clothes into Child B’s arms and hurriedly led Su Ang to the dining hall. Child B shook the crumpled garnt, rolling his eyes, "How does she manage to be both sincere and insincere at the sa ti..."
"Sincere is the money, insincere is the person, right?" Child C gazed straight at Su Ang’s retreating figure, unable to conceal his admiration and envy, "By the way, Brother B, don’t you think Commander Su looks really beautiful off the battlefield..."
"You shouldn’t complint boys as beautiful; say handso." Child B corrected.
Child C shook his head, "No, definitely beautiful. Qian Qi is handso."
Child B: ...
Child B recalled the chrysanthemum smile of Qian Qi just a mont ago and couldn’t connect her sly face with the concept of handso at all.
"Let’s go hang the clothes," Child B decisively chose to abandon the topic.
...
Inside the dining hall, Qian Qi selected a clean and minimally worn table, inviting Su Ang to sit down.
Following her lead, Su Ang sat down, glancing around the dining hall to find that, although the building was quite old, everything was kept neat and clean, showing how much people here cherish the place.
"Senior Su, since you disappeared without a trace, causing significant psychological harm, the prices for the Blood Stopping Magic Potion and Defense Fruit have skyrocketed. We need to renegotiate the transaction contract."
Once seated, Qian Qi imdiately retrieved a stack of contract papers from her waist, writing as she revised, "Let’s and the price to now value at over 378 million for a customized hovercar; how about that?"
"Agreed." Su Ang nodded.
Seeing Su Ang agree so quickly, Qian Qi looked up at him, then lowered her gaze, seemingly casually asking, "Senior Su, is that amount just a drop in the ocean for you?"
Su Ang’s scanning gaze froze in the dining hall, then returned to Qian Qi.
After scrutinizing her several tis, he spoke mildly, "Are you trying to find out how much savings I have so you can empty my account?"
Qian Qi: (๑¯³¯๑)
How can he be like that, not understanding that so things should be tacitly understood rather than spoken?
"I definitely won’t drain your account," Qian Qi murmured a couple of words to clarify for herself, "Even if facing an enemy, I wouldn’t do sothing so unscrupulously."
Su Ang was unimpressed.
After last night’s attempts to add her as a friend were still pending, it was clear how much she holds grudges and how petty she can be. Facing enemies, without draining their accounts and leaving them destitute, he wouldn’t believe her.
"I’ve made the andnts." Qian Qi pushed the revised contract across the table, "Take a look; see if there’s any issue."
Su Ang carefully reviewed it; Qian Qi had articulated everything ticulously, leaving almost no loopholes for either side, making it a nearly perfect transaction contract.
Though there was one particular section...
He pointed to a line in the contract, "The principal cannot interfere with the agent’s authorization liberty, but the Blood Stopping Magic Potion formula and Defense Fruit cultivation thods must be authorized for Magic Plant Research Institute use?"
Although he initially intended for the Magic Plant Research Institute to produce and sell, understanding the logic of "letting professionals handle professional matters," Qian Qi specifically stated this in the contract, making him suspect if there’s a catch.
"What’s wrong, not acceptable?" Qian Qi asked, holding an innocent small rough face, "The Blood Stopping Magic Potion should have been in production early, but you didn’t respond for so long, so I could only generously send the formula to the Magic Plant Research Institute."
Having already given the formula to the institute, naturally, she marked this in the contract to prevent Su Ang from playing tricks, accusing her of selling to multiple parties, and catching her in a bind.
Although, she indeed sold to multiple parties ＾ｖ＾.
Being on the battlefield for years, Su Ang wasn’t aware that people could be this shaless to do the sa business three tis.
He bowed his head and pondered for a while, unable to think of what he could capitalize on here, eventually nodded agreeing, "Okay."
"Oh, by the way~" Qian Qi rembered sothing and smiled amiably, "Senior Su, can we keep the transaction price confidential?"
Confidential?
Su Ang imdiately recalled the frenzy potion auction, realizing that if others knew he spent nearly 378 million acquiring Defense Fruit’s cultivation thod, it would expose her previous claim of "needing research funds due to poverty," attracting criticism and bringing her unfavorable consequences.
Upon considering this, Su Ang naturally agreed, "Sure."
"Thank you, Senior! You really are a good person!" Qian Qi was delighted and imdiately waved her contract, "I’ll go print this; hang on for a mont."
Borrowing the printer from the director’s office, Qian Qi returned with the revised contract which she placed in front of Su Ang. After both confird it, they signed and sealed the deal.
"With the contract settled, let’s talk about the hovercar," Su Ang brought up his concern, "The customized hovercar requires your asurents for easier driving practice."
Qian Qi: "So I need to grab a tape asure and asure myself?"
Su Ang: "Tape asure isn’t accurate enough; you need to personally visit the Flying Group for a full-body asurent."
Qian Qi: "That sounds troubleso?"
"If you don’t want to make the trip," Su Ang’s gaze fell lightly on Qian Qi, "if you don’t mind, I can use my eyes to asure."
Qian Qi: ???
Wait, why does that sound so strange?
"How do you asure with your eyes?" Qian Qi was curious, having heard that commanders possess many handy spirit skills — could asuring be one of them?
"Just like this." The silver-haired youth lifted her wrist gently with the back of his hand, shifting his gaze inch by inch, then noted down a figure on paper.
Subsequently, his serene gaze scanned her waist, then moved to her legs and feet, recording several numbers a few monts later.
Qian Qi: ...
Looks like even if a commander beca unemployed in the future, he could still beco a tailor and support a family.
