Chapter 126 - Being Handsome Really Can Put Food on the Table!
Late at night, in the living room.
Lin Fan, Longye, and the others were gathered in the living room, waiting for Meizhi to return from his interview.
A full day had passed since Meizhi left for his interview that morning, but there was still no sign of his return.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, do interviews usually take this long?”
Mokui asked, turning her head curiously to look at Lin Fan.
“Generally speaking, they don't.”
Lin Fan looked puzzled and slowly shook his head.
He was also very curious in his heart. What on earth was Meizhi doing? How could an interview take so long?
With Meizhi's looks, becoming a male host shouldn't be a problem. The issue was whether he, as a Demon General, could properly play the role of a host. That was the key to the interview.
But even if he didn't pass the interview, he should have been back long ago. How could there be no news for so long?
Just as Lin Fan was considering whether to go out and look for him, the door opened, and Meizhi walked in, laden with all sorts of large and small shopping bags.
The moment he saw Lin Fan and Long Yue sitting in the living room, he didn't even have time to take off the various gift and shopping bags hanging from his body before he bowed in greeting: Fresh chapters posted on NoveI★Fire.net
“Lord Demon Sovereign, Madam.”
Lin Fan and the others stared in bewilderment at the returning Meizhi. Compared to when he left in the morning, he was now dressed in expensive designer brands.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, it seems this subordinate has passed the interview.”
“The owner of that club hired this subordinate on the spot and had me start work officially today.”
“These things were bought for this subordinate by a female client.”
As he spoke, Meizhi put down the bags one by one and took out the gifts he had received that day from them.
An LV bag, a pair of solid gold bars weighing over half a kg in total, and clothes for every season, each in matching sets for easy changing.
Watching Meizhi take things out of the gift bags one by one, Lin Fan and the others were, without realizing it, completely dumbfounded.
Just the clothes alone—a single piece casually cost over a thousand yuan. They were more expensive than all the clothes worn by everyone in the room combined…
According to the current market price for gold, that pair of solid gold bars weighing over half a kg would be worth nearly four hundred thousand!
If you added the LV bag and the other miscellaneous items, the gifts he received today would total a full five hundred thousand!
“These things… were all given to you by that female client?”
Lin Fan pointed at the pile of things before him and asked in disbelief.
Meizhi nodded lightly.
“Yes, Lord Demon Sovereign. They were all from her. This subordinate tried my utmost to refuse, but she insisted that I accept them.”
Hearing this, both Lin Fan and Long Yue were silent.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, are these things very valuable?”
Seeing the stunned expressions on Lin Fan and Long Yue, Mokui couldn't help but come closer to examine the things on the table and the floor.
Besides the gold, which looks like it's worth a bit, the other things just seem like ordinary bags and clothes…
Lin Fan didn't say much, but silently pointed at the LV bag.
“That bag alone is enough to get you a top-spec phone…”
“Eh?! For real?! For just one little bag?!”
Hearing this, Mokui's eyes flew wide open, and she turned in shock to look at the LV bag on the table.
In her eyes, this LV bag was nothing special. If she had to say something, the workmanship was a little more exquisite and the materials were a little better, but the price difference was just too huge!
One bag costs tens of thousands?!
Her phone only cost a thousand!
“Lord Mei~ I've been needing a bag recently. Could you give this one to me~?”
Mokui appeared in a flash at Meizhi's side, pressing her body against his arm, constantly throwing flirtatious glances his way, her voice as delicate and sweet as a young girl's.
Meizhi shot her a disgusted look and pushed her away.
“If you want it, just take it.”
“Really! You're the best!”
“From this day on, in my heart, you are second only to Lord Demon Sovereign!”
Mokui's face showed her ecstasy. She flashed over, grabbed the LV bag from the table, and hugged it in her arms as if she would never let it go.
“Meizhi, tell This One the truth. Did you deliberately bewitch that female client?!”
Lin Fan stepped forward, placed a hand on Meizhi's shoulder, and stared at him with a serious expression.
Long Yue also turned her curious gaze upon Meizhi, waiting for his reply.
With Meizhi's identity as a member of the Incubus race, bewitching a mortal woman would be incredibly easy.
He would only need to release a tiny sliver of his innate charming spiritual energy, and it would be enough to make any woman fall for him and offer him everything.
For her to buy him so many gifts would be completely normal in that case.
Under the gazes of Lin Fan and the others, Meizhi shook his head firmly.
“This subordinate remembered the Demon Sovereign's decree not to carelessly use spiritual energy in this world, to avoid exposing our identities and wasting our own power. Therefore, this subordinate did not release any spiritual energy.”
Meizhi spoke with great sincerity and honesty, not seeming to lie. And this, in turn, made both Lin Fan and Long Yue feel even worse.
He didn't use any charm magic... which means, he relied purely on his handsome face to make that female client willingly spend money and buy gifts for him…
In a single day, he received nearly five hundred thousand in gifts!!
You have to know, his own monthly royalty payments were only a few thousand yuan, even at their best…
Long Yue was also dealt a heavy blow.
She streamed diligently and persistently every day, and with the accumulation of three months of streaming, her salary plus donations for this month only reached over a hundred thousand yuan.
But Meizhi just went out for an interview for one day and came back having received… nearly half a year's worth of her salary!!
That money came to him way too easily!
At this moment, the same thought arose in the hearts of both Lin Fan and Long Yue simultaneously:
Being handsome… really can put food on the table!
“Lord Demon Sovereign, this subordinate would like to hand over all these remaining things for you to manage, to do my small part for you.”
Meizhi slowly pushed the things on the table toward Lin Fan.
“No need. Since these things were given to you, you can handle them all yourself…”
Lin Fan politely declined, but then he couldn't help but secretly glance at the pair of dazzling gold bars on the table, and his tone changed:
“However… This One will keep this pair of gold bars for you for safekeeping. You can keep the rest.”
With that, he reached out and pulled the pair of gold bars toward himself.
Just as Lin Fan was about to pocket the gold, Long Yue, sitting beside him, suddenly let out a couple of soft coughs.
The gold in Lin Fan's hands paused. Then, in a silky-smooth maneuver, the gold on the table was pushed in front of her.
“Actually, the household finances are better suited for a woman to manage. It's best if I leave these gold bars in your care, Yue'er.”
This silky-smooth handover left Mokui and the others dumbfounded.
It seems Madam holds a lot of authority in this household…
“Since you put it that way, then This Empress will reluctantly take them for safekeeping~”
Long Yue gave a charming smile, cupped the heavy gold bars in both hands, her eyes reflecting their dazzling golden gleam.
In the past, she had regarded such gold, silver, and jewels as mere dirt, but now, she felt they were so beautiful and dazzling…
