Throughout the process, the driver did not interrupt. Though he peeked at the two beautiful girls sitting in the backseat through the rear mirror, especially at the girl with a mole at the corner of her eye. She was an enchanting beauty.
If it was a taxi driver in the capital Beijing, they will never miss the opportunity to interrupt. They will interrupt, while peeking at you.
When he got home, Li Xianyu rolled up his mattress and moved to the living room. After giving the guest room to San Wu, his quality of life had plummeted two grades in a week, from the master bedroom to the guest room and now to the living room.
Fortunately, his couch was big enough. When he bought furniture,he listened to his adoptive mother, who wanted to buy the cheapest sofa.
Li Xianyu disagreed, pulling his adoptive father to one side to talk about it. “Dad, if a man doesn’t have a spacious and comfortable sofa, his life would be unhappy.”
His adoptive father thought about it, and when he patted his son on the shoulder, his expression was overjoyed. “You have grown. Remember to spread blankets on the sofa in advance, if it gets dirty it’s difficult to wash.”
Li Xianyu side-eyed him and said, “What do you mean? I mean, after playing games, I can lie on the sofa and go to bed.”
His adoptive father whacked his head. “I meant that too.”
He had thought of letting Great-Grandma and San Wu sleep together, but neither of them would be happy, so Li Xianyu had to go to the living room to sleep.
The strawberries bought at noon had been eaten up. When they passed the fruit shop, Great-Grandma whined that she wanted to drink coconut juice. Li Xianyu bought three, and San Wu paid.
Now, Great-Grandma sat in front of the computer playing games, as San Wu held the coconut juice, curiously watching beside her.
As she played the game, Great-Grandma didn’t forget to take the time to explain how skilled she was and how rare her weapons were. She complained that her opponents were too weak.
The scene was very much like a primary school student playing games while showing off.
San Wu looked on silently and did not speak. Occasionally her eyes brightened, which meant that she agreed with Great-Grandma.
Li Xianyu lay on the sofa, closed his eyes, and carefully recalled today’s incidents bit by bit. He pondered about his situation, Baoze Group’s attitude toward him, and so on. From today on, he will be the new number 1 apprentice of Baoze Group. During his internship, he will try to deal with strange events. There may be danger, but Baoze Group had arranged for San Wu to protect him. So as long as he remained perverted, it should not go wrong.
Through a few days of brief contact and Great-Grandma’s attitude towards Baoze, Baoze Group should still be trusted.
He downloaded the Ancient Demons app on his phone.
A few minutes later, the chat software was downloaded and after opening it, he was prompted to register a new account.
He gave himself a cool name: a walking pile driver.
Ancient Demons was not like a chat application, but like a comprehensive social media application, with short videos section, social section, task section, and current affairs news section.
Li Xianyu saw the Shanghai Demon Descendants Headquarter in the social section. He applied to join the group and filled out his real name and simple personal information.
After applying to join the group, he didn’t get an instant reply. Li Xianyu was not in a hurry. He took the time to be familiar with the application, and there were information to guide novices. For example, in the news section, “Baoze Group Demon Descendants Welfare” and “Demon Descendants 101” were very important for him at the moment.
As Great-Grandma said, Baoze Group was the law enforcement agency of the demon descendants community, and their duty was to arrest or kill ancient demon descendants who have committed crimes in society. They also differentiated between ordinary citizens and demon descendants. But the Baoze Group will not meddle with the demon descendants community’s conflicts, unless it was a major scuffle that will have a certain impact on the human society.
The demon descendants were not recluses. On the contrary, most of them were leading great lives in human society. These days, even clans that wanted to live in peace and far from the disputes of the world also shamefully become a scenic spot. What’s more, there were demon descendants that operated in society in the image of a family business and company.
But these demon descendants’ forces were basically good people, at least, they all had real names that were registered in the Baoze Group, and were under control.
In ancient times, they were the orthodox clans. If there are orthodox clans, there would naturally be evil unorthodox clans. There were always some patients with chuunibyou symptoms who did not accept control. When they opened their mouths, they spouted things like “I dictate my own fate”, and “All men are born equal, why should I be controlled by you?” If these guys didn’t commit crimes, then the company didn’t care, but if they dared to commit crimes, the Group would not show mercy.
Then there was the company’s welfare system. Interns received $50,000, which was the guaranteed basic salary. Bonuses would be calculated based on performance, but not given through monetary reward, but through points accumulated by employees.
Points can be exchanged for many things, such as weapons, authority, money, and so on. Old Master Qin’s exclusive weapon, leather rope was exchanged through points.
And the wallet was a spatial device which was standard, as long as you become a regular employee, you will have one.
After scrolling the short video section for a while, he soon found an interesting short video:
#Caught a wild Hujian Man, plan to roast him#
He clicked it subconsciously and the video played. The background was in the wild. There was a winding creek, as distant mountains stacked. There was a wood stand by the stream, and a man was covered in blood. Blood stains and hair stuck to his face, and one could not see his face clearly. His eyes were full of panic.
“It has been two months, but we finally caught him. This guy is a murderer who committed three annihilations in Hu Jian. We heard the Guangdong people say, ‘Donkey meat was heavenly, and Hu Jian meat is a delicacy.’ I’ve wanted to try it for a long time. Anyway, the company’s request is to kill him. I’ll cut his head off, take a photo, and hand in the task. Guys, I’ll try it first. If it’s delicious, I’ll bring you a few catties of Hu Jian meat.”
A man with a deep voice explained in the video.
In the video, the man on the barbecue was struggling violently, gurgling, and looked very frightened.
The video ended without any follow-ups.
Li Xianyu’s first reaction was: This is fake, right?!
Just like Kuaishou and Tik Tok, they shoot some attention-grabbing, exaggerating, and absurd videos to get clicks and likes?
Majestic demon descendants would play this kind of trick too?
Seeing who posted it, it read: God of Food!
“San Wu, do you think this video is real?” Li Xianyu started the video and showed San Wu.
San Wu glanced at it and replied, “Mmhmm.”
“Well, what do you mean? The answer was too hasty.”
“Ate him.”
“…”
Li Xianyu muttered in his heart, Damn it. Goddamn it. I knew this stupid company does not have a normal person.
Old Master Qin is no normal man. San Wu is no normal girl. Even when I was eating a meal, I saw a crazy fire-spitting person jump out and shout, “It is all the world’s fault.”
Now you tell me, there are still cannibals?!
Continuing to scroll down, another short video attracted his attention because the ID who uploaded the video was “Old Master Qin.” Ah, a familiar name.
In the video, a young girl with cat ears and a tail, dressed as a maid, sat obediently on the bed, looking very pliant. The camera lens shifted to the left, another girl with fox ears and tail winked seductively at the camera. The camera continued to turn left, and another delicate petite girl with red eyes and bunny teeth, and was dressed in fishnets, showing off her curves.
“On the third day of a business trip in Zhu Hai, I accidentally chanced upon this great place. The beautiful ancient demon ladies here are all good people, and only receive guests who were demon descendants, and not ordinary people. You don’t have to pay to play with them, so long as they can absorb some essence from you. It’s not a big loss and you get a lot of fun. Private message me if you want the address.” This was Old Master Qin’s voice.
The video was uploaded six months ago.
Li Xianyu was speechless.
The demon descendant community was wonderful, and suddenly he was full of hope for life.
He silently added Master Qin as a friend.
Ding!
A notification popped out on his mobile phone, showing that he had joined the Ancient Demon Descendants group.
*People with chuunibyou either act like a know-it-all adult and look down on real ones, or believe they have special powers unlike others.
