When she thought of her stupid behavior before, she felt utter shame. At the same time, she admired her young miss's vision.
She planned to have a good relationship with this new colleague. After all, people are way stronger than you. Maybe they can help you and give a few pointers to become stronger.
Su Mo showed a polite smile and said, "Miss Yang, Miss Zhang, just call me Su Mo. There's no need to be polite with me. After all, both of you are older than me."
With just one sentence, Su Mo offended both of them, and the car fell into an eerie silence.
Yang Qingxi and Zhang Xulin's brows twitched wildly. They resisted the urge to lose their temper at him and agreed with a stiff smile.
"Then let's do as you say."
Su Mo turned to Zhang Xulin.
"By the way, Miss Zhang."
"Just call me Sister Xulin."
"Then, Sister Xulin. There are some things which I hope you can prepare for me."
"Oh? What is it?" Zhang Xulin asked, curious in her mind about what things a powerful master might need.
'Some kind of treasure? Weapons? Herbs?...'
But she never expected him to say.
"An identity card."
Zhang Xulin almost slammed on the brakes of the car.
"You are not a fugitive, right?"
She wondered if it was the right decision for her young miss to recruit him.
"Of course not!"
Su Mo denied her accusation and started talking with a reminiscing look.
"Since I was a child. I have been living with my master in the mountains. Learning his knowledge, skills and going through torturous training every day."
"Only after my training was completed did my master allow me to enter the secular society."
"I came here just last night."
After hearing Su Mo's explanation, Zhang Xulin understood many things, and several of her previous doubts were cleared.
'No wonder he has such powerful strength at such a young age.'
When she imagined the scene of a young child going through inhumane training in the mountains, everyday. Zhang Xulin's eyes became moist and her admiration for Su Mo increased.
Yang Qingxi, at the back, looked out of the window with an expressionless face. If she hadn't known that, he was a transmigrator. Maybe she would have believed his nonsense.
Also, why is his story so similar to the plot of that 'Return of Medical Genius' novel that the system gave her before?
'What a guy! He didn't even bother to make up an excuse. Just copied and pasted it.'
She rolled her eyes and didn't bother to expose him. After all, his excuse was very convenient.
Her thoughts flew to the system as a reminder sounded in her mind.
[Ding! The initial stage of subduing was successful!]
[Ding! You are rewarded with 1000 Luck Points.]
[Ding! Hostility Index function is available!]
[Note: You can spend 10 points to judge the hostility of the target towards you. From a range of 0 to 100.]
'I consumed 100 points before. Now I gained another 1000 points. What a bargain.'
Yang Qingxi was very satisfied, thinking she had made the right decision.
'Hostility Index? This function is very useful.'
Yang Qingxi glanced at Su Mo and Zhang Xulin. Then, tested this new function on them.
[Ding! Whether to spend 20 Luck Points to see the Hostility Index of the two targets?]
'Yes.'
[Hostility Index - Zhang Xulin: 2]
[Comment: You made her overeat. Now, she is worried that she might vomit.]
[Hostility Index - Su Mo: 10]
[Comment - He believes you are coveting his body. Now he is wary of you and wants to protect his chastity.]
Yang Qingxi was a little embarrassed by Zhang Xulin's comment. But Su Mo's comment made her blood pressure rise, and a red blush appeared on her cheeks.
'Rogue!'
She scolded him in her heart for his shameless thoughts and continued looking out of the window.

On the other side, outside the airport. Ye Chen was in a good mood.
Just now, he had caught a thief and helped a beautiful woman named Su Menghao get back her purse.
She also offered him a job as the Security Chief at her company.
"Haha, first she let me enter her company, then her office, her home and eventually her heart! Such a beauty can only be mine, Ye Chen's woman!"
After making his self-declaration. Ye Chen made an overseas call.
A couple of seconds later, an electronic male voice sounded on his phone.
"What job is it, Mr. King?"
"Spider, I want all the information about a woman. Su Menghao, she is president of a cosmetic company called Bluewing Cosmetics in Jiangnan."
"..."
5 minutes later, the voice sounded again.
"The information has been sent to your mobile phone."
"Good job! The money will be credited to your account later."
Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction and then questioned.
"What about the other thing I asked you for? Did you find out who is behind the tragedy of the Ye Family?"
"No, I've searched everywhere I can. All the records have been erased by someone long ago, it's not possible to recover them now. Only the people involved in the incident may know about it."
"Well, I see. But still keep looking for it. Maybe there will be some results."
"Yes."
The phone was hung up.
Ye Chen had a solemn expression as he looked towards the sky and muttered in his heart.
'Let's see how long they can hide. No matter how powerful they are, I'll find them all and kill them.'
As he made his oath, Ye Chen hired a taxi.
"Take me to the Bluewing Cosmetics company, at the commercial district."
'Revenge can wait for later. For now, no one can stop me from picking up my woman.'
'Su Menghao, wait for me. Your husband is coming!'

Golden Wisp Club House.
Yang Zhen woke up in a drunken state as he heard his mobile phone ringing.
"Who?"
"Young Master, the bouquet you asked us to prepare has arrived, and the arrangement for your date is completed."
When he heard this, Yang Zhen became completely sober and excited.
"Good! Today, Su Menghao will definitely accept my love for her."
