I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?
Chapter 2024 is both a reminder and a warning!
Recently, the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes has been by Zhang Yangqing's side almost 24 hours a day, the vast majority of her time, at his beck and call.
Serving tea and water, running errands, helping organize clues, and even sometimes when Zhang Yangqing was staring blankly at the painting, she would quietly stand aside and wait for most of the day without even changing her posture.
This made the blond guy incredibly envious.
Every time he passed by room 722 and saw that tightly closed door, he felt a pang of unease, like being scratched by a cat.
His goddess, his dream girl, the one he had pursued for most of Yudu but couldn't win over, willingly stayed in another man's room, serving him tea and water, and showing him concern.
He didn't even have the right to go in.
One time, while the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes was out on a mission, the blond guy paced back and forth in the corridor a dozen times, and finally mustered up his courage to sneak up to the door of room 722.
He raised his hand to knock on the door, then lowered it, raised it again, and lowered it again, repeating this several times. Finally, he gritted his teeth and gently knocked three times.
"Come in."
Huang Mao pushed the door open strangely and saw Zhang Yangqing standing by the wall, staring at the painting.
He stood at the door, rubbing his hands together nervously, and said, "Brother, I have something I want to tell you."
Zhang Yangqing didn't even turn his head, still staring at the painting: "Speak."
The blond-haired guy took a deep breath, as if gathering his courage: "Big brother, I just want to ask, you're clearly not that interested in that woman, so why is she so infatuated with you? I see her fawning over you every day, serving you tea and water, treating you better than she would her own father. I'm so envious!"
Zhang Yangqing finally turned around and glanced at him.
There was no mockery or impatience in his eyes, just a calm and matter-of-fact statement: "Women, especially outstanding women, won't like you just because you're nice to them. Only if you're outstanding enough can you attract them."
He paused, a slight smile playing on his lips: "And what else did you come to me for, just to ask these pointless questions?"
The blond-haired man scratched his head awkwardly, his expression turning serious. His eyes darted around a few times before he finally seemed to have made a great decision: "Big brother, I have something I want to tell you."
He paused, then lowered his voice even further: "Now I'm working as Copper Skin Weird's underling, and sometimes I say bad things about you behind your back. I hope you don't mind. I'll kowtow to you and apologize in advance."
As he spoke, the blond-haired man kowtowed three times in a strange manner, his forehead turning red. The sound of his forehead hitting the floor was particularly crisp in the quiet room.
Zhang Yangqing did not stop him, but simply watched quietly, her gaze as calm as still water.
Huang Mao was a rather clever guy; he understood the hint Zhang Yangqing had given him last time.
After "learning" that the Copper-Skinned Mysterious One was the BOSS of a certain area, he took the initiative to become the Copper-Skinned Mysterious One's sycophantic follower.
He followed Copper Skin Ghost around every day, flattering him and making him feel comfortable.
Despite his strange appearance, Tongpi was respectful and courteous to Zhang Yangqing, calling him "Great God" affectionately.
But what about behind the scenes? They definitely harbor disdain and dissatisfaction towards Zhang Yangqing.
But he couldn't say these things, for fear that Zhang Yangqing would find something to use against him.
The scene of Zhang Yangqing effortlessly killing three BOSSes outside the city is still vivid in my mind; the terrifying aura of his earth-shattering power still makes my legs weak when I think about it.
He dared not, he didn't even dare to think about it.
Therefore, he needs a "voice double" to express his dissatisfaction.
Of course, this dissatisfaction was only talked about behind people's backs and couldn't be brought into the light.
The blond guy had just grasped this point.
He started speaking ill of Zhang Yangqing behind his back.
He had his reasons for saying that, because he portrayed himself as a "loser" whose "goddess was stolen" in front of the Copper-Skinned Ghost. This image was so plausible that the Copper-Skinned Ghost didn't suspect a thing.
Copper Skin Weird knew that the Peach Blossom Eyes Beauty was now Zhang Yangqing's lapdog, and also knew that Yellow Hair Weird was interested in the Peach Blossom Eyes Beauty, having pursued her for half a year, from the east side of Yudu to the west side, from the street to this guesthouse, but he hadn't even touched her hand.
Now that the goddess is constantly surrounded by other men, the blond-haired man's strange envy and jealousy are palpable.
When he spoke ill of Zhang Yangqing, Tongpi could hear the genuine bitterness and resentment in his voice; the hatred he expressed through gritted teeth didn't seem feigned.
Of course, Huang Mao only dared to say some harmless bad things.
For example, Zhang Yangqing is arrogant, self-righteous, disdainful of others, and bullies others by abusing his power.
That's all I dare to say for now; saying anything too harsh would seem insincere.
Every time he spoke, Copper Skin Weird would reprimand him with a stern face, saying that he was outspoken and that he was not someone to question.
I told you that if you keep talking nonsense, I'll throw you out.
But Copper Skin's weirdness was just talk; he only spoke after hearing it, and he wouldn't punish Yellow Hair's weirdness after speaking. Sometimes he would even pat him on the shoulder and say, "You're a pitiful person too."
What does this mean?
This shows that he does not deny this statement.
Because the blond guy blurted out what he really wanted to say, he felt quite pleased to hear it.
The words he wanted to say but dared not say, someone else said them for him; the people he wanted to curse but dared not curse, someone else cursed them for him.
However, out of consideration for his pride and Zhang Yangqing's strength, he dared not say it, much less show it.
Now that there's a "scapegoat" speaking for him, he's naturally happy to see it happen, and even hopes that the blond-haired guy will say more.
If it were any of Zhang Yangqing's loyal underlings, like the blond-haired guy, who said these things in front of the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes, she would have slapped him against the wall long ago.
But Copper Skin Ghost wouldn't do that. He would even try to extract more information about Zhang Yangqing from Yellow Hair Ghost, such as what Zhang Yangqing usually does in his room, who he meets, and whether he has any weaknesses, so that he can be useful in the future. Who knows?
The blond-haired weirdo kept increasing the favorability of the copper-skinned weirdo.
Even if Copper Skin Strangely treats him like a dog, he's still close.
By getting close, you can explore the rules for obtaining opportunities and becoming a boss after the boss in your area dies.
This has always been his dream, and it is also the driving force behind his willingness to humble himself.
But then again, Huang Mao strangely treats Zhang Yangqing with great respect, at least for now.
Even when he spoke ill of Zhang Yangqing behind his back, he felt very guilty, and every time he finished speaking, he would hide in a corner and slap himself twice.
He felt ungrateful and that he was not human.
That's why I came here today to kowtow and apologize, hoping to find peace of mind.
Zhang Yangqing looked at him and remained silent for a while.
The room was so quiet that you could hear the faint sound of wind coming through the crack in the door, as seen in the painting on the wall.
Then he said calmly, "You are very smart and honest, but you need to be moderate in your smartness and show some foolishness in order to deceive people, understand?"
Because it was Zhang Yangqing who instructed Huang Mao to do this strangely, Zhang Yangqing was relatively tolerant of him speaking ill of Huang Mao behind his back.
But the phrase "and also display some foolishness" serves as both a reminder and a warning. (End of Chapter)
