” It’s like a newborn baby, but as the people and things you come into contact with are different, your personality will gradually change. So, I’m still me. There’s no doubt about it.”
“But the only downside is that my personality has changed.”
Xu Bai stood up silently and took two steps back.””What change?”
He finally understood. There were good and bad changes in personality. For example, people who grew up in a kind family would also be very kind after they grew up.
However, he had lived in a harsh environment since he was young. After he grew up, it was the same.
Therefore, Xu Bai couldn’t figure out whether the female Abbey Dean was good or bad. He had to pay attention to her now.
“If I had a bad personality, you wouldn’t have the chance to talk to me now.””I feel like I’ve become more human,” said the female abbey dean.”
“You know, the cultivators in my line pay attention to having no desires. But now, I’m actually angry because of a look from you. I don’t understand.”
As she shook her head, she revealed a distressed expression. She had never seen such an expression before.
Xu Bai returned to his seat and continued drinking his tea calmly.
“Not afraid anymore?” The female Abbey Dean smiled.”
“How could I be someone who is afraid of death?” Xu Bai waved his sleeves.”
Female Abbey Dean:
He had seen thick-skinned people before, but he had never seen anyone as thick-skinned as him. He had clearly explained himself clearly before he let down his guard, but he had to find an excuse for himself.
“Let’s talk about business.” The female Abbey Dean took a deep breath. Her chest heaved up and down, then slowly descended.”I’m here to receive someone’s request to give you something.”
As she spoke, the Abbey Dean took out a silk pouch from her chest and handed it to Xu Bai.
Feeling the warmth of the brocade pouch, Xu Bai was about to open it, but the female Abbey Dean stopped him.
“Unless it’s a real crisis, when your life is in danger, don’t open it.”The female Abbey Dean stopped him.
Looking at his serious expression, Xu Bai was deep in thought.
“Who asked you to give this to me?”
His words just now had already made it clear.
This was not the Abbey Dean’s. She had been entrusted by someone to bring it back and give it to Xu Bai.
However, Xu Bai had to find out who it was. Otherwise, he wouldn’t accept a brocade bag for no reason.
“Director Mu.” The female Abbey Dean said slowly,” I owed him a favor in the past, so I’m returning the favor this time. He promised Eunuch Wei that he would ensure that you are safe, so he gave you this brocade bag.””
When Xu Bai heard this, he silently put the brocade bag into his pocket and nodded to show that he understood.
The female Abbey Dean was also very clear that Xu Bai was such a person. He would not refuse when something came from the right source.
Of course, he would accept it.
Xu Bai felt that there was only one thing that made people happy in their lives.
– For free.
When a person was a prostitute, a knowing smile would appear on his face. This kind of pleasure was incomparable to any other way.
This was because of Eunuch Wei, which was why Director Mu had asked the female Abbey Dean to bring it over. Xu Bai was absolutely at ease with Eunuch Wei, so he had no qualms accepting it.
Seeing this, the Abbey Dean’s thin red lips twitched slightly.””If I didn’t know your background, I would have believed some of the rumors in the martial world.”
“What?” Xu Bai had just put away the brocade bag when he heard the female Abbey Dean’s words. His interest was instantly piqued.
The female Abbey Dean coughed lightly to cover up her embarrassment.””Rumor has it that you’re Eunuch Wei’s illegitimate son. After all, you’re a powerful and old man, so you still look very young.”
Xu Bai was speechless.
He felt that he could not continue discussing this matter. They had not discussed it for long, and for some reason, he had given himself another identity.
To be honest, he really wanted to know who the source of this rumor was.
For example, if he found the blood-headed macheteman, he would skin him alive.
The female Abbey Dean wanted to say something, but her expression suddenly changed and she quickly disappeared.
Xu Bai was also a master, so he knew why the female Abbey Dean had disappeared. The reason was simple. The middle-aged man responsible for delivering the message had arrived.
The middle-aged man walked in from outside the door. Seeing that Xu Bai was still sitting in his seat, he quickly took two steps forward and said,”Milord, the news has already been sent out. In three to five days, the higher-ups will send someone over. At that time, Milord will be promoted and go directly to the capital.”
The capital was the highest level of the Great Yue State, commonly known as the capital, which corresponded to the capital of the Great Chu State.
As members of the Dark Tower who could obtain A-grade information, they would naturally go there. Of course, the premise was that they had to wait for the people above to come down and confirm it.
Xu Bai looked down and said calmly,””Do you know who came?”
The middle-aged man shook his head.” We are low-level workers. How could we know about the higher-ups? But you don’t have to worry, sir. Even if this news is false, the higher-ups won’t blame you.””
Walking on this official road, one naturally had to pay attention to some of the principles above.
For example, regardless of whether the person in front of him could advance or not, he at least had a chance. Therefore, the middle-aged man was very respectful.
