Chapter 145 Talking to Gao Yan
So after Bo Chuan finished speaking, Lou Xiaoyu quickly followed up with a reply.
"You're so busy, leave the checking of the qualifying matches to me. Also, I have a few high-level, high-energy crystals."
"Qingqing, what kind of jewelry do you like? I'll have someone set it for you and bring it over."
Even with the strictest interstellar laws, husbands are required to hand over 60% of their assets. Therefore, your real estate and credits are under the surveillance of the interstellar AI.
However, many men convert their assets into goods. These goods have transaction records, but many of them are consumables.
Once the mainframe reports that it has consumed all its resources, there's nothing that can be done. This way, the man can retain a portion of his assets.
So nobody's a fool, neither women nor men. Gu Qing seems genuinely open-minded about this kind of thing.
The momentary silence after Lou Xiaoyu finished speaking made him realize what was happening, and he quickly put down his fork.
"What kind of look is that? I haven't been hiding my assets. This is just a small consumable item. I didn't even care about it."
He said this to Bo Chuan, then turned to look at Gu Qing, who was sitting in the main seat, "Qingqing, he's trying to sow discord. I'll go back and pack everything and send it to you."
Gu Qing could understand; after all, it was her, and she did the same thing. She'd seen enough of that before—everyone looks out for themselves.
Bo Chuan didn't say a word from beginning to end. He even calmly put a piece of meat on Gu Qing's plate, and Gu Qing put a piece of green vegetable on her plate in return.
He then added the same dish to Lou Xiaoyu's bowl and said, "Don't be nervous. I'm not that petty. I must have investigated you before you handed over your assets."
"Your size is similar to Bo Chuan's, that's fine. Besides, you've already handed over 60% of your salary, which doesn't violate any interstellar laws."
That's what they say, but Lou Xiaoyu knew it was different.
At that moment, he didn't know whether he hated himself for his slip of the tongue or resented the little thoughts he had hidden at the time.
"I was in some pain when I advanced last time. I wonder how it will be this time? Is it like this every time I advance? Or is it getting more and more painful each time?"
Gu Qing changed the subject and asked the two of them about it.
"Qingqing, wait a minute." Lou Xiaoyu interrupted Bo Chuan before he could finish speaking when Gu Qing asked this question, and then tapped a few times on the smart device.
Gao Yan's projector was connected. She must have just gotten home from get off work and was sitting on the sofa. Her clothes were no longer as serious and formal as when they first met.
"What's wrong with Xiaoyu? Why did you call me at this hour? Is Qingqing here eating too? The banquet just ended, you must be really busy lately."
As if nothing had happened, her tone became even gentler.
Seeing this, Gu Qing quickly put down her chopsticks. "Mother, it's really bothering you to call at this time."
The sedan chair was being carried by many people, and since no one mentioned it, she couldn't just go looking for trouble.
"It's not an intrusion, but you must have something to say to me at this time, right? We're all family, so just say what's on your mind."
"Ahem, I just wanted to ask about some taboos regarding the advancement of a Purifier." Lou Xiaoyu interrupted her mother, seemingly a little impatient.
Gu Qing glanced at him; this was the fearlessness of someone who was pampered.
Upon hearing his words, Gao Yan quickly put down what she was holding, her eyes gleaming. "Is Qingqing about to advance again? That's quite fast."
Seeing this, Lou Xiaoyu irritably ran her hand through her hair. "Just answer my questions, why are you saying all that nonsense?"
"Xiaoyu." Gu Qing called him softly, then said in an even gentler tone, "Are you not full? Don't worry, I can't advance right away."
Lou Xiaoyu immediately seemed to have her agitation soothed, and swayed slightly in her chair. "You're not full either, are you? Hurry up and finish what you were saying, so as not to delay your meal."
Gao Yan's projection seemed to be sitting opposite Gu Qing, showing everyone's expressions clearly. Seeing this, she raised an eyebrow and sighed inwardly.
This son is somewhat like his father; in just a few days, he's already showing signs of becoming love-struck. That's why she warned Gu Qing despite her anger.
I always felt that her son was smart, but when he was in love, his IQ would drop to negative numbers, and he would be easily taken advantage of by women.
Although she thought highly of Gu Qing, it was easy to see through someone's facade, and if her decision went wrong, her son…
So I thought I'd give him a warning, that it would be best if he could have a child with his son as soon as possible, so that he would have someone to rely on later.
Alas! Raising a child is a lifelong worry, even for a hundred years.
