"Mr. Zeng, what happened? Please explain clearly!" Director Wang asked, puzzled.

"Sigh, Yaqin has a best friend abroad who says she has a great job, earns a million a month with ease, drives luxury cars, wears expensive watches, and carries designer bags. She asked Yaqin to go with her, and that silly girl actually bought a plane ticket. I'm so angry with her that I've gotten sick!"

Old Zeng spoke with disappointment and frustration.

"Hey, there's no such thing as a free lunch! This is clearly a scam, it's been reported in the news!" Director Wang slapped his thigh after hearing this.

Earning a million kyats a month seems like a sure thing, but there's no guarantee you won't get ripped off if you go there...

Old Zeng's chest heaved, clearly his emotions were unstable again: "It turns out that the silly girl said her best friend was very close to her and wouldn't lie to her; she wanted to go out and make her way in the world for a few years before returning home in glory!"

"Quickly, get out there and restrain her. Call the police and let them handle this. These swindlers have even reached out to my side!" Old Zeng said, getting up to stand up.

Director Wang quickly helped Old Zeng up, saying, "Old Zeng, please don't get agitated. Yaqin was probably just fooled temporarily. She's still outside. Let's talk to her a bit more!"

"How could I not be emotional? Her mother died early, and her father didn't want her. I watched her grow up, and she's no different from my own granddaughter. How could I watch her be deceived!" Old Zeng couldn't help but cough as he spoke.

Ye Chen shook his head. Every family has its own problems.

However, these things were no longer relevant to him, and Ye Chen quietly left the emergency room.

There were two rows of people standing or sitting on both sides of the corridor outside the door.

Ye Chen nodded to the examiners in greeting, then looked at Elder Xie and said, "Elder Xie, let's go first, there's nothing more for us here!"

Old Xie stood up and looked at everyone: "Hehe, then we'll be going now. We'll come to your house for tea another day!"

"Wait, you can't leave!" Zeng Yaqin suddenly said, looking at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen glanced at her, his eyes filled with affection...

"What, are you going to restrict my personal freedom?" Ye Chen chuckled.

"My grandfather's condition is not stable yet. In short, you can't leave. If any new situation arises, you will have to take responsibility. So you can't leave for the time being!" Zeng Yaqin said confidently.

Ye Chen finally understood why her best friend wanted to find her.

These kinds of people are incredibly good at boosting sales figures!

"Tch, idiot!" Ye Chen shook his head and turned to leave, too lazy to bother with such a person anymore.

Spending too much time with this kind of person can easily lead to premature dementia.

"You, you stop right there!" Zeng Yaqin wanted to chase after her, but Director Wang and Director Li came out and called her inside.

What followed was inevitably a long lecture.

All of this has nothing to do with Ye Chen anymore; he's just here today to take the specialty assessment.

Saving people was just a side effect.

Oh right, and I even got a free apprentice, can you believe it?

This apprentice is the head of an acupuncture department! He has a certain social standing!

Therefore, the system also rewarded him with a Heart-Asking Ruler, which was clearly no ordinary item!

In short, this was a worthwhile investment!

Old Xie really took it to heart, spending the whole morning with him.

Ye Chen treated Elder Xie to a meal before returning home.

After returning home, Ye Chen couldn't wait to claim the hidden reward, the Heart-Questioning Ruler.

The "Heart-Questioning Ruler" can directly reach the deepest part of a person's heart, allowing them to speak the truth.

A mini ruler appeared in Ye Chen's hand, fitting perfectly in his palm.

The ruler is entirely emerald green, with some intricate patterns engraved on it. It looks warm and antique, clearly an antique, and must be worth a lot of money.

Ye Chen curiously examined the Heart-Questioning Ruler. Could this thing really make people tell the truth?

Isn't that even better than a lie detector?

But how does this thing work?

You can't win people over with "virtue" in such a small place!

You can't just shove it into someone's mouth, can you?

"System, system, how do I use this Heart-Asking Ruler?" Ye Chen asked, maintaining a good learning attitude of asking questions when he didn't understand.

"Hello Master, the Heart-Questioning Ruler is very easy to use. Just infuse it with spiritual energy, and everyone within its coverage area will speak their truest thoughts. The more spiritual energy you infuse, the larger the coverage area will be!"

Spiritual power?

Ye Chen's face was full of black lines.

Hehe, hehehe...

Damn it, this place is already having trouble absorbing spiritual energy, let alone spiritual power?

Is spiritual power free?

The barely perceptible spiritual power within him was still drawn from the teleportation jade talisman.

Every bit of spiritual energy is precious!

How could a normal person use spiritual power to do such a pointless thing?

So this "ruler of the heart" for judging feelings is just a facade.

Moreover, this is a range coverage, isn't this like killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own?

If you want people to tell the truth, then you must also be within that scope; you have no choice but to tell the truth yourself.

Unless you shut up or have no distracting thoughts, it's easy to accidentally hurt yourself or your allies!

This is definitely a real-life version of Truth or Dare!

If not handled properly, it could turn into a major social disaster.

It's fun, but it all comes at a price.

"What use is this thing to me if I don't have any spiritual power? I'd be better off giving you a few more Marrow Cleansing Pills!"

Ye Chen thought the teleportation jade talisman was still the cutest.

At the very least, he can absorb some spiritual energy.

However, since it's a hidden reward, it's practically a freebie.

Why be dissatisfied when someone gives it to you for free?

Ye Chen grumbled as he put away the Heart-Questioning Ruler.

Just then, my second uncle called to say that they had completed the formalities and were going back.

With a mortgage of over a million, a life of hardship is inevitable.

They definitely wouldn't have the time to continue shopping.

Besides, Chen Tingting had to go to class in the afternoon, so there was nothing they could do if they stayed in Lucheng. It would be more reassuring to go back and work.

Ye Chen wanted to see them off, but his second uncle and the others had already driven off.

Before hanging up the phone, the second uncle said that if Ye Chen returned to the county, he must go to see him, saying that he would take him to get a foot massage.

Ye Chen said he didn't know anything about it.

After ending the call, Ye Chen opened Doubao to ask it to help him make a travel itinerary, while taking out a teleportation jade talisman to begin cultivating.

He was incredibly hardworking.

I don't want to waste a single moment!

If I had had this kind of drive when I was studying, I probably would have gotten into Tsinghua or Peking University long ago.

Feeling the refreshing and pleasant spiritual energy within the teleportation jade talisman, Ye Chen thought, "This is more like it!"

And so, Ye Chen entered cultivation mode again, determined not to give up until he had completely absorbed the spiritual energy within the teleportation jade talisman.

Except for stopping to trade 5 healing pills, Ye Chen maintained his cultivation state the whole time.

While it's true that sitting still for long periods can make you restless and your hands and feet can easily go numb, this doesn't happen when absorbing spiritual energy.

A clean and refreshing half-day has passed just like that!

While eating, Ye Chen carefully looked at Doubao's travel guide and had a clear idea of ​​the travel route and what he needed to prepare!

That evening, Ye Chen went straight to a large supermarket and began shopping as if he didn't care about the cost.

With both shopping carts full, Ye Chen was about to push the third one.

Seeing this, a waitress proactively asked, "Sir, are you using this for your company's team building activities or a dice game?"
