Chapter 48 Acting and Stirring Up Trouble



The next morning, Fang Qingdai entered the base alone.

After thinking for a moment, Fang Qingdai sent a message to Xiao Mao, asking him to meet up.

When Xiao Mao arrived, he was still half asleep, but as soon as he saw Fang Qingdai, he visibly perked up.

"Sister! Are you delivering goods for me?" He rubbed his hands excitedly, looking at Fang Qingdai with eager eyes.

Fang Qingdai sighed: "It's not for delivery."

Xiao Mao was a little disappointed, but noticing Fang Qingdai's troubled expression, he quickly perked up and asked, "What's wrong, sister? Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Just tell me! I've already told you that you're like a sister to me, and I'll definitely help you with this!"

What a loyal friend!

Fang Qingdai didn't expect Xiao Mao to help deal with Lu Rui; she just needed some people to witness it!

That's right, Fang Qingdai wants to make a big fuss!

Since she's going back to the base, she has to make a grand return!

Ideally, it would alert the entire base, allowing me to live under everyone's watchful eyes!

Only in this way can we prevent Lu Rui from engaging in underhanded maneuvers.

She didn't want to be forced to become a certified superhuman, then be transferred to Lu Rui's team without any resistance, and finally disappear without a trace!

Fang Qingdai coughed twice: "I'm going to do my ability user certification today, and I'm a little nervous about doing it alone. Could you come with me?"

Xiao Mao was stunned for a moment, then looked at him with envy: "Sis, you activated your superpower?"

"I knew it! Even if I'm over fifteen, I'll still have a chance to activate my powers! You're my role model, sis!"

Xiao Mao's eyes lit up with excitement. Fang Qingdai found it amusing and teased him, "How did you know I'm over fifteen?"

Xiao Mao froze, staring at Fang Qingdai in disbelief.

Fang Qingdai saw that he was almost broken, then chuckled: "Just kidding. I'm sixteen this year, and I'll be seventeen in half a year. I'll definitely be older than you!"

His face was round and chubby, making him look young; he appeared to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Sure enough, a look of joy returned to Xiao Mao's face: "I just turned sixteen!"

"I really want those bastards to see you certified as a superhuman, so they'll know that I definitely still have a chance to activate my powers!" Xiao Mao said, her mood turning somewhat downcast.

Fang Qingdai found his emotional outburst amusing, but his words were exactly what she wanted to hear!

"Fine! Bring them all over! Bring everyone who's ever mocked you! I'll make sure you get your comeuppance today!"

Xiao Mao was overjoyed and readily agreed, "Sister, you wait! I'll go get someone right away!"

Fang Qingdai stayed behind to wait, but before Xiao Mao could return, Lu Rui arrived with seven or eight people.

Seeing Fang Qingdai standing blankly at the entrance of the superpower testing center, he assumed she was too afraid to go in and a mocking expression appeared on his face.

Judging from Fang Qingdai's attitude yesterday, Lu Rui was worried that she would refuse to get certified at the base, which would prevent him from transferring her to his subordinates.

But after thinking about it last night, I realized that it would be fine if Fang Qingdai didn't want to go to the base. Wouldn't it be simpler to make an ordinary person from a shantytown disappear quietly?

To everyone's surprise, early this morning, the brother who was keeping an eye on Fang Qingdai returned to report that Fang Qingdai had entered the base.

Lu Rui hurriedly led his people to the ability testing center, waiting for Fang Qingdai's certification to be completed so he could bring her into his team.

He had already informed his superiors in advance that Fang Qingdai would definitely be assigned to his team!

Fang Qingdai glanced at the newcomer and met Lu Rui's ambiguous smile. She rolled her eyes back without any politeness.

"Qingdai, you don't need to be so hostile towards me. Your uncle is only doing this because of his friendship with your parents and because he can't bear to see you suffer in the shantytown. That's why he persuaded you to get certified at the base!"

"When you come work for your uncle, I'll take good care of you!"

Fang Qingdai sneered: "Stop barking like a dog. What kind of strength do you have to dare to ask me to work for you?"

Fang Qingdai's sarcasm was very effective. The fake smile on Lu Rui's face immediately vanished, and his gloomy gaze toward Fang Qingdai resembled that of a venomous snake flicking its tongue!

Fang Qingdai was somewhat disappointed to see his emotions so readily apparent.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. If she were truly shrewd and capable, she wouldn't have been so suppressed by the original owner's father, only daring to resort to petty tricks to annoy people.

Lu Rui is more like a teddy bear raised by a villain; he barks and barks at everyone he sees, but his actual lethality is only average.

The question remains: who is behind him? And how much effort did Lu Rui put into helping the original owner's parents disappear?

As he pondered, Xiao Mao arrived with about a dozen teenagers.

A group of teenagers, all around fifteen or sixteen years old, were at an age where they couldn't sit still. When they got together, they chattered endlessly, attracting the attention of many passersby along the way.

Even the base's patrol guards were alerted and came forward to question the boys about their whereabouts.

One of the boys, chin held high and an air of arrogance on his face, said, "This good-for-nothing fatso said his sister is almost seventeen and has actually activated her superpowers! We don't believe it, we're going to the superpower certification office to check!"

Upon hearing this, passersby shook their heads: "Impossible, right? I've heard of children under ten activating their superpowers, but I've never heard of anyone activating theirs after fifteen!"

Superpowers are typically activated between the ages of ten and fifteen; the better the talent, the earlier they are activated.

A very small number of individuals with exceptionally strong talents, or those like Qingluan whose special circumstances trigger their special abilities, will activate their abilities before the age of ten.

However, the older one gets, the lower the chance of activating superpowers becomes, and the weaker the superpower talent that is activated becomes with age.

Many people who activate their superpowers at the age of fifteen end up stuck at level three or four for the rest of their lives without any further progress!

So when people heard that someone was almost seventeen years old before activating their superpowers, no one believed it.
