Gao Yang thought he had misheard and paused, "Is it necessary to go through so much trouble just to make friends?"
"Hehe, of course it's not just about making friends." Liu Qingying didn't beat around the bush anymore, "I also want to make a small deal with you."
Gao Yang remained silent as he pondered.
"Of course, I won't force you. You can refuse if you want. If you do refuse, I hope you won't spread tonight's events. It's not beneficial for either of us. We can just pretend nothing happened."
"Understood." Gao Yang nodded. "But why did you choose ?"
"Because I saw you in the crowd at first glance." Liu Qingying threw a flirtatious glance, which was strange because even though he knew it was a flirtatious glance, he still found it enjoyable.
But Gao Yang didn't lose his mind. He knew very well that it was all nonsense.
Liu Qingying had four candidates: Qing Ling, Officer Huang, Wang Zikai, and Chubby Jun.
Qing Ling was the first to be excluded because she was strong, and being a woman, Liu Qingying would lose the advantage of her "charm" ability, greatly reducing her effectiveness.
Officer Huang was the second to be excluded because he was also strong and experienced as a police officer. He was loyal to his wife and wouldn't be of much use.
Chubby Jun was the third to be excluded because he seed timid, indecisive, and easily swayed. He might be easily persuaded to beco a "mole," but he might not be good at playing that role.
As for Wang Zikai, he was just a beast with a low intelligence, so he was definitely not within Liu Qingying's consideration.
"That's right, just as you thought." Liu Qingying smiled.
Gao Yang was surprised: Does this woman also have mind-reading abilities?!
"No, it's because you're still in a dream, so I can roughly sense the fluctuations of information in your mind and make deductions to understand what you're thinking. I wouldn't be able to do it in reality." Liu Qingying sighed, "I do wish I had mind-reading abilities though, it would save so much trouble."
Mind-reading abilities?
It seed that what she wanted was not tangible items, but...information?
Liu Qingying's eyes narrowed slightly with satisfaction. She was sowhat surprised and said, "You're very clever. I suddenly regret choosing you."
Gao Yang also smiled. "So, it's indeed an information exchange?"
"Yes."
"Information about the Zodiac?" Gao Yang himself didn't have much value, so Liu Qingying must be after the organization behind him.
"Yes."
"Let's talk about how to trade then." Gao Yang crossed his legs and listened attentively.
"It's not difficult. First, let's talk about the thod of the trade. You co to my shop once a month to eat sothing, and I will give you a complintary drink. Take a sip, and we can et in the dream that night, just like now, without leaving any traces. And you can rest assured, although I can invade your dreams, I can't physically harm you. The duration of the dream depends on your sleep ti in reality. Compared to other talents, [Sweet Dreams] is very gentle."
Gao Yang nodded, indicating for Liu Qingying to continue.
"During each eting, I will ask you for so information about the Zodiac. If you know, you can tell , or you can choose not to tell . I won't force you." Liu Qingying extended a finger and emphasized, "I only have one requirent: you can't intentionally give false information. Once I figure it out, the cooperation will end, and I can't guarantee that I won't retaliate."
"Understood."
"Let's talk about the rewards. I can give you so information you want, and the principle is the sa. I can choose to tell you or not, and you can't force . One piece of information for another." Liu Qingying's mouth curled up, revealing a hint of shrewdness and worldliness. "If you provide with one piece of information and I don't have the information you want, I can give you five Gold Crow Coins as thanks."
"Gold Crow Coins? Isn't that a mythical bird?" Gao Yang said.
"No, it's the common currency among awakened beings. It's made of a very rare tal called tal of the Crow, and the total circulation in the market is no more than 100,000 coins. Awakened beings refer to this tal as Crow tal. It was originally called Crow Gold Coins, but later everyone started calling it Gold Crow Coins."
Liu Qingying smiled. "It's hard for you to grasp it this way. Five Gold Crow Coins, if converted into the value of ordinary banknotes, would be around 2 million. Of course, hardly any awakened beings would be foolish enough to exchange Gold Crow Coins for ordinary banknotes. But considering your father's situation..."
"Alright."
This woman is truly terrifying.
"What's the use of Crow tal? Why can it be used as the common currency among awakened beings?" Gao Yang asked.
"It has many uses. First of all, although we can't create rune circuits, we can determine that rune circuits are made of Crow tal. In addition, weapons and tools made of Crow tal have special energy. It can also resonate with certain talents of awakened beings, achieving various miraculous effects."
Gao Yang thought of Qing Ling's Tang Blade. Could it also be made of Crow tal?
The thought flashed through his mind, but Gao Yang imdiately cut it off. He couldn't inadvertently reveal his teammate's trump card to Liu Qingying, who could almost "read minds" in dreams.
"In short, Gold Crow Coins are very useful. Even if you don't use them to make special weapons, you can trade with other awakened beings. I won't go into detail here. Since you've joined the Zodiac, I believe you will soon beco familiar with the world of awakened beings."
Gao Yang nodded.
Liu Qingying placed her hands back on her knees. "Those are the rules."
"It's fair." Gao Yang couldn't find any faults."Furthermore," Liu Qingying stood up from her seat with a smile. Her figure was incredibly tempting under the moonlight, her red cheongsam accentuating her alluring curves. Her silver hair added a touch of mystery and nobility, stirring the primal desires deep within n.
"You're a man, perhaps, we could in the dream..." Liu Qingying didn't finish her sentence, instead hinting with her seductive gaze, "Don't worry, this isn't a transaction. The night is long, and I can't leave until you wake from your dream. I need to do sothing to pass the ti, and it could also enhance our feelings for each other, deepening our cooperation."
"Uh, no need."
What kind of joke was this?
You're a man!
"Heh, I knew White Rabbit would tell you that I'm a man," Liu Qingying said, as if she had expected it.
"Isn't it?" Gao Yang asked.
"To be precise, I'm a hermaphrodite," Liu Qingying said.
"You an you're intersex?"
Gao Yang was surprised. Intersex people are those who possess both male and female physical characteristics. The ratio of intersex people to normal people is 7500:1. There are only over 400 humans in Leave City, and yet there was an intersex person! Gao Yang increasingly felt that the possibility of "my family mbers are also humans" was not nonexistent.
"Although I'm a hermaphrodite, my psychological traits are 100% female. Moreover, in the dream, I can erase my male characteristics. You don't need to feel any psychological burden. Besides, this is just a dream."
"So," Liu Qingying took a step forward and gently extended her hand towards Gao Yang, "won't you reconsider?"
