Zhai Qinghe assumed that Xie Anxia would join her in condemning Jian Zhizhen, just like last time.
Unexpectedly, Xie Anxia slowly said while applying her nail polish:
"You know what, I think so too, but isn't that how it should be? Jian Zhizhen has always considered the group from beginning to end. She's beautiful, smart, and all-around capable, and she's also very tolerant. She even helped me when I broke her equipment. Not to mention all the male guests like her, I like her too."
Zhai Qinghe stared in astonishment.
How could you?
Xie Anxia genuinely couldn't detect the sarcasm in others' words. She thought that Zhai Qinghe's statement that all men liked Jian Zhizhen was a genuine compliment.
So she added, "I think Jian Zhizhen is a great person, just like you. If she can really save us, the first thing I'll do when I get back is to publicly praise her online and let everyone know that she's a heroine."
Zhai Qinghe almost ground her back molars to powder.
Does Chien Chih-chen use witchcraft?
Why does everyone seem to be under a spell?
Xie Anxia looked up at her sparkling manicure from in front of the dressing table, then turned to Zhai Qinghe and asked, "Hey, do you think my manicure looks good?"
Zhai Qinghe forced herself to calm down.
Although Jian Zhizhen's whitewashing was ridiculously absurd, her public image didn't collapse.
As long as I can go back.
Even if she can't do it, her company will find a way to deal with Jian Zhizhen.
The company that Jian Zhizhen signed with, Jinju, only had a registered capital of one million yuan, which wasn't even enough for her to earn a small share of a role in a movie.
But the contract I signed was with an Apple subsidiary.
Having figured this out, she forced a smile and looked over with amazement: "Wow, that's amazing! It's just as good as a professional nail technician's!"
These words instantly reminded Xie Anxia of Jian Zhizhen's praise of her yesterday: "Everyone has their own expertise."
Chien Chih-chen is very skilled at inventing machines. She is also very capable of making manicures sparkle, curling hair beautifully, and taking care of her skin to make it clean and delicate.
With her newfound confidence, Xie Anxia naturally stopped being jealous of Jian Zhizhen's overshadowing her.
"That's right, I'm very professional when it comes to beauty. You come, and I'll do it for you."
"Okay, thank you Xiaxia." Zhai Qinghe walked over and handed her hand to Xie Anxia.
...
Jian Zhizhen and Qin Yubai brought Grandma Li to a nearby town and stopped outside a pharmacy.
Grandma Li kept blaming herself the whole way: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, those people would never have found you..."
In fact, Chien Chih-chen had said many times that he didn't blame her, but the old woman's thinking and memory were somewhat slow, and she would continue to blame herself.
When they arrived at the place where they were about to part ways, Jian Zhizhen pulled Grandma Li to sit down on a bench outside the pharmacy and emphasized again, "Grandma Li doesn't blame you. It was only a matter of time before we clashed with those vultures."
Jian Zhizhen took out her counter, entered the password, and leaned it against Grandma Li's counter.
"Bai Bai and I each have 10 coins left. We'll give you all of them. Go buy your medicine and live a good life from now on... Also, don't go looking for Sister Qiu Yuan anymore. They're in more danger than you."
When Grandma Li saw that Jian Zhizhen's data had turned to 0, she frantically waved her hands, "I can't take it, I can't take it... It's really unnecessary for you two to go through so much trouble to save me. I'm thinking that it's fine if I die, I just don't have the guts to die myself. If they kill me, I might have an easier time..."
Grandma Li quickly tried to transfer the money back to Jian Zhizhen.
Jian Zhizhen shook his head, put away his counter, and said earnestly to Grandma Li, "Grandma Li, you can actually change all of this. Most of the people who suffer like you can unite to resist and build a new order."
“You can build a world where people work five days a week and have two days off, and work eight hours a day. Everyone will strive to survive, but they will also have time to enjoy life.”
"Everyone should contribute a small portion of their income to society, so that society can support those who are unable to work..."
As Grandma Li listened to Jian Zhizhen's gentle words, she couldn't imagine what kind of world that would be.
They live such a tiring life.
I never imagined that, as a human being, I could stop and appreciate the scenery along the way.
Before Jian Zhizhen could finish speaking, she shook her head and interrupted her: "I'm too old for that."
Qin Yubai also sat down next to Jian Zhizhen and comforted Grandma Li with her: "If you have this thought of resistance, everyone will gradually have it too, and eventually someone will take action."
Jian Zhizhen turned around and met Qin Yubai's gaze.
That's what they said, but both of them knew the truth.
The system of this time and space cannot be changed by the two of them alone.
After finding equipment capable of repairing the transmitter, their first priority was to go home.
If they have the capacity, they can also use the advanced equipment here to convey the idea of resistance to this time and space.
As for whether the people here will unite and resist...
At first, everyone might be hesitant, but things will eventually come to fruition.
As the three were talking, Qin Yubai suddenly looked into the distance, his eyes instantly turning cold and stern.
Jian Zhizhen followed his gaze.
A flock of vultures stood about five meters away, holding weapons, and were walking towards them.
They were scared away by the big snake last night, and now that the snake is gone, they have nothing to be afraid of.
Soon, they approached the three people.
Grandma Li was so frightened that she trembled all over and didn't dare to say a word.
Jian Zhizhen smiled and said to the vultures, "Grandma Li's counter now has more than 20 coins in assets. The old lady doesn't have many expenses, and you'll have to wait a long time for her to empty it. Why don't you just arrest the two of us?"
