Xu Qingqing changed into a maid's uniform once again, and this time she changed her makeup and styling again, painting her face in a yin-yang pattern, with one half black and the other half white, separated from the nose.
She served some snacks and went to find Lin Meijiao with her head down. At this time, the servants were busy cleaning the hall and had no time to pay attention to Xu Qingqing, which made it easier for her to find Lin Meijiao without any obstacles.
The manor was very large, and searching room by room would be too troublesome. Xu Qingqing walked over to the maid who was wiping the stairs and asked, "Which room is Miss Lin staying in?"
"ah!"
The maid was startled by Xu Qingqing's sudden voice. When she saw that the person who came was dressed in the same maid's uniform as her and had a strange appearance, she became even more frightened. She pointed to one of the rooms and stammered, "There, there."
Seemingly out of fear, she glanced at Xu Qingqing's face, then quickly lowered her head, shrinking her neck and trembling slightly.
Xu Qingqing touched her face and realized that it was her two-toned face that had frightened her. Before leaving, she remembered something, took a small candy from her pocket and put it in the other woman's hand, and then walked toward the room the other woman had pointed to.
The maid looked at the small candy in her hand, pursed her lips slightly, and her eyes reddened a little. This was the first time someone had shown her kindness. She lifted her hair to reveal the wound on her forehead and continued with her work.
Xu Qingqing arrived at the room and knocked on the door.
In the room, Lin Meijiao had just finished showering and changing her clothes when she heard someone knocking on the door. When she opened the door, she was startled to see the strange-looking maid.
Xu Qingqing mentally gave him the middle finger, but smiled and said, "Miss Lin, my young master asked me to deliver wine to apologize for what happened before!"
apologize?
Lin Meijiao sneered. She had never heard of someone who would apologize with alcohol before. He was indeed a dissolute person.
"No need. Just tell your young master that I can't afford his apology."
After saying that, he was about to close the door when Xu Qingqing pushed against it with one hand and easily squeezed in. He was joking; there was no reason not to come in once the door was open.
Lin Meijiao's face immediately turned extremely ugly: "Are the servants of the Chu family like you, barging into guests' rooms without permission? I'd like to ask the Chu family head about the Chu family's rules."
As he spoke, he pointed to the door and yelled at Xu Qingqing, "Get out of this room right now, and don't let me see your ugly face again!"
Seeing that she didn't move, Lin Meijiao angrily grabbed something nearby and threw it at the ill-mannered girl, her voice shrill and piercing: "Get out! What are you still standing there for? Get out of here right now! I don't need your Chu family's apology, get out—"
Ever since she realized that she had been tricked by Xu Qingqing again, Lin Meijiao had been suppressing her emotions. Now she had to face such humiliation from Chu Jing. Did he think she didn't know what he was up to? He just wanted to get her drunk and take advantage of her again.
The reason she's being detained here is simply to prevent her from speaking, or perhaps they're plotting something to exonerate Chu Jing and pin the blame on her, claiming that she seduced Chu Jing. Lin Meijiao clenched her hands, her face drained of all color, turning as pale as paper.
Mu Cheng…
Xu Qingqing dodged the things Lin Meijiao threw in her madness, put away the wine bottle, and approached her while dodging. She knocked Lin Meijiao unconscious with a karate chop. Fortunately, the ground was covered with thick carpets, otherwise the servants outside would have heard the noise and rushed over long ago.
The system had been keeping an eye on the situation outside. When it saw Lin Meijiao being knocked unconscious by that strange-looking person and miraculously making eye contact with him, it was terrified and ran around the system space in a panic. "Oh no! Who is this person I can't afford to offend?"
Xu Qingqing spoke up: "Hey, I know you're here. You can hear and see me. You're the system, right? How about we make a deal?"
The system hovered in mid-air, cautiously glancing at her. How did this person know of its existence? Did Lin Meijiao let it slip and she overheard? Oh no, the main system will definitely blame it. Even if Sister 03 came, it wouldn't make a difference.
┭┮﹏┭┮
Xu Qingqing listened to the system's inner voice, ignoring her words. Her face immediately darkened, and she threatened fiercely, "Come out and say something. Now that I know of your existence and your place, be careful I'll make sure you never see your 03 sister again, imprison you, and let the researchers study you thoroughly."
Upon hearing this, the system immediately begged for mercy: "No, no, no, please don't imprison the system, and don't let others study the system. It's just a transaction, even if it's ten transactions, this system will agree to it."
This is terrifying! This person is so scary! It's terrifying! The system is crying in its heart.
Forehead……
Xu Qingqing scratched her head, seeing Him crying so sadly, and tried to find her own sense of guilt. Oh, she didn't feel any guilt at all, no, she didn't feel any guilt towards Him. After all, she had been Lin Meijiao's helper before, so what was there to be innocent about?
"Alright, all I ask of you now is that you listen in on everything Lin Meijiao does. If someone claims to be surnamed Zhao and comes looking for Lin Meijiao, you must write down every single word they say."
The system nodded: "Okay, okay, the system can definitely do it."
"Shut up, don't interrupt me." Xu Qingqing's face was icy, and the system immediately stopped talking and continued listening: "So you have to write down everything about the Zhao family, including their address."
Xu Qingqing suddenly realized that the system was inside Lin Meijiao's body. If the Zhao family took her back and she couldn't find her, how would she learn about the Zhao family from the system? It would be like throwing good money after bad, a complete waste of time and effort.
For some reason, the other party's gaze became increasingly strange, and a chill ran down his spine. The system shivered violently, having a bad premonition. Sure enough, the words the other party spoke the next second filled him with dread.
“How about we just take you back for further investigation? I just remembered that this deal is very unsafe and has no guarantee whatsoever. What if you end up with Lin Meijiao and hide in the Zhao family, making it impossible for me to find you? So after thinking it over, let’s just forget about this deal.”
As it spoke, it reached out and grabbed at Lin Meijiao's head. The system was so frightened that it immediately cried and covered its head, shouting, "System, there's something! Something that can contact you! Don't grab the system!"
Xu Qingqing paused, a triumphant smile flashing across her eyes before quickly returning to her previous cold demeanor. She said in a chilling voice, "How do I know what you're giving me is actually useful? What if this is just a trick to fool me? Do you think I'm that idiot Lin Meijiao?!"
The system shook its head frantically, then, realizing the other party couldn't see it, quickly said, "No, the system isn't lying to you. That thing can show my location. It's a standard feature of every system used to contact other systems. This is to prevent situations where we can't contact the system and rely on this location system to find us."
As he spoke, a square communication locator, about the size of a brick and made of bricks, appeared out of thin air.
Xu Qingqing stared at the brick that shimmered like diamonds, its entire body radiating an aura of preciousness that nearly blinded her.
