“Wait a minute, do you actually know me?”

“Isn’t this the first time we meet?”

Then, Tingyun turned his head away with contempt, his tone revealing a hint of sarcasm:

“Humph! Who in Luofu doesn’t know your name, the Green Bird Soothsayer?”

“Ever since you warned the company about the financial crisis and helped Luo Fu avoid huge losses, your name has become quite famous!”

“Later, after the events of the purge of the aristocratic families and the eradication of the cancer that had taken root in Luofu, your reputation rose even more!”

“As a member of the Tianbo Division, I’ve naturally heard a lot about your deeds!”

“But I never imagined that you would give up your bright future as a Taibushi official, degenerate into depravity, and become a guest of the Fengrao people!”

“You are such a beautiful lady, why do you become a thief?!”

“what?……”

Upon hearing this, Qingque was immediately confused.

No, what does this have to do with that?

She was clearly going there to annihilate the Fengrao people’s army, so why did Tingyun describe it as a trip to a Fengrao people’s home for a banquet? …

Also, is she already so famous?

How come she hadn’t noticed it for so long? …

So, in order to confirm this, Qingque turned to the black tower that followed and asked in a low voice:

“Was I famous in Luofu?”

Heita heard this and answered without hesitation:

“A person’s reputation fluctuates over time.”

“As for you, during the major events Miss Tingyun just mentioned, your name, as a keyword, frequently appeared on Luofu’s major portals and various social media platforms…”

“However, it seems that since you joined Taipusi, you’ve been so busy that you haven’t even had time to log in to social media platforms, so you haven’t noticed anything…”

Chapter 143 People who are good at dealing with people always have rich inner thoughts.

“Eh? So that’s how it is?…”

After learning from Heita that he had actually become somewhat famous, Qingque’s mood suddenly became somewhat complicated…

On the one hand, it is certainly a happy thing to be able to become a celebrity in Luofu.

And just now, a faint sense of comfort did emerge in Qingque’s heart…

What’s even more rare is that, looking at Tingyun’s appearance just now, it seems that most of her reputation is just good reputation, and now it seems even more rare!

Besides, although it is a bit tacky when you look closely…

But Qingque really wanted to experience the feeling of being sought after and surrounded by fans.

But Qingque happened to meet Fu Xuan, her direct supervisor who wanted to tie her to her workstation every day.

So she worked almost all year round, trapped in the Taibu Division by Fu Xuan’s work…

Even when she went back to rest, she would always be out in the dark, with not a soul to be seen on the road! As a result, she had no chance to experience the celebrity treatment she should have!

Now that I think about it, it’s such a pity! It seems that working all day really made her miss out on so many wonderful experiences…

On the other hand, although Qingque’s past reputation could save her the trouble of introducing herself to Tingyun.

But in this wrong scenario, this seemed to become a negative example, and she was inexplicably labeled by Tingyun as “a traitor during wartime” and “self-degrading”.

Under such misunderstanding, Qingque felt a strange feeling of wanting to cry but not being able to, yet also being unable to laugh or cry…

Just when Qingque temporarily ignored Tingyun and was still whispering with Heita.

The alert Tingyun also took this opportunity to remain silent, secretly observing the two people talking close to each other with his eyes…

Tingyun’s gaze first fell on the strong woman in maid clothes.

From the first moment he saw her, Tingyun felt that this girl was very strange!

She should clearly be one of the bandits who hijacked the ship and escaped, but she was wearing a black silk maid outfit that was so inappropriate…and obviously seductive.

If you add to that her flawless, meticulously crafted beauty, one can’t help but subconsciously have the strange thought of having something happen with this delicate and aloof maid…

However, Tingyun at this moment was very clear that the delicate appearance of the woman in front of him was just a disguise!

This guy is just as dangerous as Bu Li Wolf Soldier who can stop children from crying at night!

Tingyun couldn’t help but recall the time when she subdued him in the warehouse area. She had casually displayed all sorts of methods, so cruel and merciless yet so inhumane…

Before he could even use any of the various means of resistance he had envisioned, he was instantly reduced to a helpless state, at the mercy of her.

It’s really too awesome…

However, no matter how powerful that guy was before, he seemed so strange now:

This guy is obviously so powerful, but why does she become so submissive when she sees Qingque?

Could it be that Qingque has a way to make this guy change his temper all of a sudden? …

Tingyun still stared at the suspicious maid, and then was surprised to find that he had underestimated the maid’s humility towards Qingque!

Even in something as mundane as a conversation with Qingque, the maid never forgot to be humble and used every little detail to make herself appear to be dominated and controlled by Qingque…

It was like a dangerous beast that instantly degenerated into a weak white rabbit in front of its master…

“It’s incredible…”

Tingyun widened his eyes slightly and thought silently in his heart.

“To be able to control this guy to this extent…”

“How on earth did Qingque, this shameful villain, control others?…”

“Hmm? Control?…”

Tingyun’s heart trembled, and his gaze suddenly turned to Qingque!

At that moment, Tingyun suddenly caught a sense of disharmony:

“wrong!”

“The one who’s truly being controlled isn’t this maid! It’s that Qingque who seems to be in a dominant position!…”

As a fox-woman who is naturally good at dealing with people, Tingyun has an acuteness in the subtle changes in people’s hearts that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

In other words, Tingyun knew exactly how to manipulate people’s hearts! …

The so-called maid in front of him seemed to be gentle and considerate towards Qingque in all her behaviors, but this was precisely a reflection of her ability to control others!

Although her various submissive actions seemed unintentional, gentle and natural, these details added together suddenly gave Tingyun a sense of deep consideration!

She lowered her status and attitude to the extreme, so it seemed that it was this guy who was being dominated!

But in fact, she used the act of giving herself wholeheartedly to the other party to make the other party involuntarily feel guilty and pity, and thus in turn controlled Qingque, who was originally in a dominant position!

Every move she made, every look in her eyes, seemed to be whispering to Qingque—

I only belong to you…

And it is this almost addictive dependence that makes people feel helpless!

High-end hunters always present themselves as prey!

If this is really the relationship between the two of them, then everything can be explained! …

Before, Tingyun asked Qingque specifically the moment he saw Qingque.

What benefits did she receive from the people of Fengrao that made her willing to give up her bright future and travel thousands of miles to join the Fengrao coalition?

Now that I think about it, this so-called benefit is most likely the maid herself!

Judging from the level of beauty and dangerousness displayed by this maid, she was specially trained and used as a means to corrupt the cadres of the Immortal Boat.

She really couldn’t imagine that such a beautiful and obedient woman could appear out of nowhere in this world…

So it seemed that the Qingque before her wasn’t a born rebel, but rather a pitiful Immortal Boat cadre who had failed to survive the deliberate corruption of hostile forces…

When he thought of this, Tingyun was suddenly shocked.

Originally, each department in Xianzhou had a complete set of reserve cadres and a gradient construction process.

For example, in the Taibu Division where Qingque works, after the current Taibu retires, the Fuxuan fortune teller who came from Yuque will almost certainly be the next Taibu.

As for Fu Xuan’s training, it had already begun long before the position was handed over…

And Fu Xuan will naturally have her successor.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that, apart from Qingque, there was no other suitable candidate for the successor…

Although Qingque was relatively young, he had achieved remarkable success in just a few years. He was later appointed Fu Xuan’s deputy, and it was a foregone conclusion that he would be the next successor to the Grand Ascendant…

But such an obvious thing can be seen by Tingyun, a person from Xianzhou. Can’t those hostile forces who are secretly lurking at Xianzhou see it?

Those hostile forces, who were unable to defeat the Immortal Boat on the battlefield before, would naturally come up with other means besides war to try to weaken the Immortal Boat’s war potential.

The corruption of Xianzhou’s young reserve cadres has become their top priority!

As for war, the Xianzhou people are not afraid of fighting…

And if they wanted to corrupt this generation of Xianzhou leaders who had been tested for a long time with money and beauty, she would find it difficult…

But as the saying goes, the kindness of a gentleman will be cut off after five generations…

What about the next generation? And the next generation?

No one can say for sure…

Tingyun thought about it while quietly looking at the clothes on Qingque.

Although the dark blue clothes looked very suitable for Qingque, the red fairy boat knot accessories were also just right.

But this still couldn’t hide the fact that the material of Qingque’s clothes was very simple…

After escaping, with no one able to monitor Qingque anymore, she still wore such ordinary clothes…

It seems that Qingque isn’t a materialistic person. I guess money won’t be able to corrupt him…

If money doesn’t work, then what’s left is…

Beauty?

In fact, as an employee of the Tianbo Division, Tingyun had also heard about some incidents on the Xianzhou anti-corruption front.

And if we use those events as a reference.

This girl, wearing a revealing maid outfit, has absolutely no sense of self-discipline! She’s clearly a top-tier female spy trained by the enemy to seduce Xianzhou cadres and become a shameless spies! …

Obviously, Qingque avoided the corruption of money, but lost his composure when it came to women!

This eventually led her to abandon her original aspirations and mission, indulge in luxury and pleasure, and sink into depravity!

Allow yourself to be hunted by beauties! …

As soon as he thought of this, Tingyun looked at Qingque with a look of regret that Qingque did not fight for it!

Is it true that this maid, who comes from an unknown background and has no sense of propriety, serves you so comfortably?

How could you, a man known for his intelligence, be so shaken and infatuated with him? …

Tingyun’s gaze lingered between the black tower and the green bird.

But after watching for a long time, the maid’s humble and obedient manner, wholeheartedly serving Qingque, even she herself couldn’t help but feel a little moved…

Could this be what they call being pitiful?

Tingyun shook his head and commented in his heart:

“Danger!”

“This guy is too dangerous!…”

“If even I am like this, how can any of the ordinary reserve cadres withstand this level of test?”

“I’m afraid Qingque has already become addicted to it and can’t extricate himself, right?…”
