Chapter 48 World 2 [18]
"Huh? What did you say? You can turn into a human?" After realizing what Jing Ke said, Shao Qinghou was obviously stunned.
"Yes, didn't I tell you before that my current reserve of strength is enough for me to obtain a human body? If you need it, I can quickly acquire a human body."
With Jing Ke's reminder, Shao Qing recalled what happened before.
Jing Ke did say something similar to her, but at that time she believed that Jing Ke was a ghost with special abilities, and that her motives for approaching her were impure, so she didn't believe a single word of what she said.
"Then how are you going to get a body? Who are you going to trade with? Are you going to find someone with a terminal illness and possess her? Or are you going to disguise yourself as a human through other means?" Shao Qing had a rich imagination and he thought of many possibilities at once.
Probably neither. I could barely call it a deal with a being from the same dimension. I'll give it some energy, and it'll give me a decent body, allowing it to leave its mark on this world in a reasonable way.
Jing Ke briefly explained that she was actually just making a deal with the world consciousness.
But due to certain rules, Jing Ke cannot directly tell the indigenous people about the existence of world consciousness, otherwise the indigenous people will be targeted by the world consciousness.
Shao Qing couldn't figure out what it meant for a person to appear out of thin air, but after realizing that Jing Ke was deliberately blurring the lines between a certain existence, he didn't ask any further questions.
"Okay, I think I understand. Do I need to prepare anything for you?" Shao Qing asked.
It has nothing to do with trust or not. Shao Qing just prefers to communicate with a flesh-and-blood person rather than a vague consciousness that is completely parasitic on him.
Although this would cause some trouble for the two of them to communicate in the future, it would be more beneficial for Shao Qing. She would have more privacy and personal space and would feel more comfortable.
My primary area of activity is within China, so I'm considered a returnee who went abroad as a child and recently returned due to unforeseen circumstances. I don't have any living relatives or friends in China. Only those near my registered residence have a vague memory of me, remembering that I went abroad at a young age.
If possible, I need a stable and safe place to live. I won't be bringing anything except some necessary documents, so I'll also need some daily necessities.
Shao Qing listened carefully. "You mean, your body comes with all sorts of identification documents? Are they the kind of documents that official agencies can check online?"
Yes, I have legal status and some assets. However, most of my fixed assets are overseas, and my cash flow isn't overly exaggerated.
For the world consciousness, giving Jing Ke an identity was a piece of cake, and giving this identity some property was even more so.
Therefore, the cash flow mentioned by Jing Ke would not be too exaggerated. It means that the cash flow will not exceed that of the world's richest man, and is estimated to be only tens or hundreds of billions of US dollars.
As for fixed assets abroad, such as companies, manors and islands under his name, they are all abroad and cannot be converted into cash in the short term.
But when these words fell into Shao Qing's ears, she understood them according to her own ideas.
Jing Ke has some assets under her name, namely a house or a shop abroad. If her cash flow is not exaggerated, she just doesn't have much money on hand and may need her help.
"A legal ID will be enough. My villa has two guest rooms. You can choose one when the time comes. As for the daily necessities you need, you can tell me and I will ask my assistant to prepare them for you. It can be ready as early as tomorrow." Shao Qing said sympathetically, without pointing out Jing Ke's embarrassment of having no money after becoming a human.
[Thank you. I'll come see you tomorrow as a human, then?] Jing Ke's tone sounded a little excited.
Jing Ke could sense Shao Qing's suspicion and distrust of herself. She had thought that after she had a human body, she would be arranged to live in a hotel, but she didn't expect that she could live in the villa that Shao Qing bought himself.
"Okay, what time will you arrive?" Shao Qing asked.
[Well, how about I come visit you this afternoon? I need to be in a suitable place.]
"Okay, after you become a human, I will take you out for dinner." Shao Qing said.
In fact, Shao Qing was a little unsure how to treat Jing Ke, so he simply treated her as a good friend.
Stay in the guest room, treat each other to meals, and take care of each other in daily life.
-
The news that Jing Ke would soon be able to transform into a human relaxed Shao Qing's tense nerves a little.
After washing his hands again, Shao Qing opened the bathroom door and rejoined the lively dinner.
The director in charge of female artists was a little dissatisfied with Shao Qing's temporary departure, but considering that she might become the company's new cash cow, he just sent a WeChat message to Shao Qing and urged her to add Mr. Yuan as a friend as soon as possible.
Shao Qing stared at the dialog box for several seconds. After a brief hesitation, he did not give a strong answer. Instead, he pretended not to see it and planned to reply to a message casually after returning home.
Aside from meeting Mr. Yuan, the second half of the dinner was relatively peaceful. After taking the group photo, Shao Qing left the table early, claiming he was too drunk.
Sitting in the car driven by his assistant, Shao Qing returned to his villa smoothly as the car radio announced the time at exactly nine o'clock.
Shao Qing bought this small villa in full when he was 24 years old. The villa does not cover a large area. Including the front yard and the living room, it is only about 400 square meters.
The overall structure is standard, with two and a half floors above ground and one floor underground, making it very suitable for a family to live together.
When Shao Qing bought the villa, he actually thought about bringing his grandmother to live with him. But Grandma Shao was reluctant to leave the house where she had lived for most of her life. She stayed there for less than two weeks before leaving.
"By the way, a friend will be moving in with me tomorrow. I'll send you the list later. Try to finish the purchases before tomorrow night." After the car stopped, Shao Qing said to the assistant.
"Okay, Mr. Shao, I'll try to buy everything as soon as possible." The assistant agreed immediately. Although he was a little curious about who the friend Shao Qing was talking about, he still didn't ask any extra questions.
If you want to be a good assistant to an artist, you can’t go wrong by asking fewer questions and doing more work. Only by learning to control your curiosity can you better control your desire to share.
-
Ever since Jing Ke said that she wanted to turn into a human and come to find him, Shao Qing couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation and curiosity in his heart.
When she woke up the next day and at lunch, Shao Qing confirmed with Jing Ke the time she would arrive.
Jing Ke said it was a little after three o'clock, but at a quarter to three, Jing Ke said goodbye to Shao Qing in his consciousness. Through a transaction with the world consciousness, he became a wealthy overseas returnee who had just returned to China.
Shao Qing's community security work is done well, and appearing out of thin air requires detailed surveillance and falsification, so Shao Qing chose the birth point as a subway station about three kilometers away from the villa area.
Jing Ke walked out of the subway station that led directly to the airport, carrying a suitcase. Then he skillfully opened his mobile phone, set Shao Qing's home as the destination, and called a taxi directly.
After dragging his suitcase and briefly registering his visitor information at the security booth, Jing Ke followed the route he remembered and found Villa No. 6 where Shao Qing lived.
After pressing the doorbell outside, Jing Ke subconsciously stood up straight, trying to make Shao Qing have a good first impression of him.
After hearing the doorbell, Shao Qing, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, stood up and couldn't help but jogging to the door.
Take a deep breath and then exhale slowly.
After making sure that his condition looked no different from usual, Shao Qing opened the door with a little nervousness and saw a young woman standing outside the iron fence.
She looked to be in her early twenties, wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt and casual shirt on the upper body and brown casual pants on the lower body.
The pants are a bit loose, but at first glance you can still feel that this woman has a very good waist-to-leg proportion, just like a clothes rack.
At first glance, one would think the woman had black hair and black eyes, but after Shao Qing walked in, he discovered that her eyes were a beautiful amber color, and her hair was not pure black, but dark brown, making her look like a mixed-race.
"Hello, Shao Qing, nice to meet you again. I'm Jing Ke." After the fence that was not as tall as a person was opened, Jing Ke showed a very bright smile and took the initiative to extend his right hand.
"Hello, Jing Ke." Shao Qing stretched out her hand a beat later. After feeling the warmth of the other person's palm through the clasped hands, she felt a little more real about Jing Ke's existence.
Jing Ke, who once lived in his consciousness and whom he was not sure whether was a product of a higher dimension or a ghost, has really become a living person, and is standing in front of him, and is about to live with him.
I probably would never have imagined half a month ago that such an outrageous scene would become a reality?
"Come in first, we'll sit down and talk slowly." Shao Qing quickly collected his wandering thoughts and stepped aside to make way.
"Okay." Jing Ke let go of Shao Qing's hand and followed her half a step behind.
After sitting down in the living room, Jing Ke quickly drank the juice squeezed by Shao Qing himself, as well as the small fruit slices that had just been prepared.
Jing Ke, who hadn't tasted food for a long time, drank half a cup of juice in one gulp, then stuffed fruit into his mouth with a fork. Soon his cheeks were bulging.
"Have you not eaten for a long time?" Shao Qing couldn't help asking after seeing Jing Ke's expression.
"Well, it's been a while." Jing Ke said vaguely, "It may also be because I didn't have time to drink water after getting off the plane, so I need to replenish water."
Shao Qing blinked slightly in confusion, and continued speaking only after Jing Ke swallowed the fruit in her mouth.
"The assistant just delivered the daily necessities you need. I've put them in the guest room you'll be staying in. Do you want to take a look now? If there's anything missing, we can buy them later when we go out."
Jing Ke nodded, stuffed two pieces of cantaloupe into her mouth, and then stood up from the sofa, waiting for Shao Qing to take her to the guest room.
There is not much idle space in the two-and-a-half-story villa because there are many functional rooms. The two guest rooms are one on the first floor and one on the second floor.
The assistant would occasionally stay in the room on the first floor for a few days, so Shao Qing booked Jing Ke to stay in the guest room on the second floor.
The guest room is very close to Shao Qing's own master bedroom, with only a study room of more than 20 square meters in between. If the door is not closed, they can have a conversation across the air if the noise is a little loud.
The assistant purchased things according to the list, from small items like toothbrushes and socks to large items like windbreakers and jackets, all of which were neatly placed on the table and sofa in the room.
Jing Ke took a quick look and after making sure she had pajamas and a change of clothes, she leaned her luggage against the wall and began to pack.
Shao Qing did not go forward to help, but stood at the door of the guest room and watched Jing Ke busy in the room.
It can sort and organize clothes, and the movements of using it, whether it is a push-type drawer or a folding hanger, are very smooth.
Moreover, it was a sunny day today. Whether it was just before entering the door or when walking back and forth in front of the window, the sunlight fell on Jing Ke without reservation.
Jing Ke did not show any discomfort when exposed to the sunlight. Instead, the color of her hair and eyes became more beautiful.
Very good, it seems that we can completely rule out the possibility that Jing Ke is a ghost. She is indeed a high-dimensional creature.
