Chapter 31
31 Missing The Little Girl
As soon as Rong Yue finished from school, she went to the gadgets shop immediately. With the little Loli constantly checking, she had found several jobs in the black market and also in the tech world that she could do but with no system, she had been unable to take them on.
She also had a certain computer type that she wanted since the technology now wasn’t what she wanted.
If someone looked at it logically, Although she was highly intelligent and smart, her biggest advantage was that she was from the future.
Even more so, she had also been someone that had shone in the future. With the capabilities and time advantage, she was almost invincible already.
After finding the store she went to the other day to get her things, she immediately requested for the things she needed and then ordered several parts alongside it.
“This girl, although we want to make sales, we still have to let you know the truth. Most of these things you are buying do not have any connection with each other and would most likely end up as a waste for the computer you have bought.” The store attendant said as he looked at all the things they had piled up on the table.
Originally, she had already ordered for the best computer now in terms of work capacity unlike a lot of people that would go for brand name and design, he had already seen that she was someone that understood her stuffs.
However, he was also certain that there was no way these things could work together.
“Errr... I don’t intend to use them on these computer, this is just something that my boss asked me to get in passing also.” She explained her face become a little flustered. Her act was so smooth that the store owner thought that he had embarrassed now.
.....
Now that he thought about it, she was only an high school student, there was no way she could even know about all these tools to the point of knowing their functions.
Besides, some of the parts she had requested were things that only experts knew existed in a system.
“Forgive me for being nosy.” He said politely and then went to draw up her bill.
Although, Rong Yue didn’t support his behavior, since he had only acted to get her not to waste money, she didn’t mind and so she paid for everything and went on her way.

In the capital city,
After the welcoming he had gotten, Qin Yichen was very aware that this was the other side calling war on their own side of the family.
Yet, only people close to him understood that to him and his brother, the Qin corporation wasn’t anything much. In fact, he was handling it more out of filial piety than out of interest.
And so even when it looked like his position was being threatened, the young man was more interested in looking at his wallpaper.
He had no idea what it was that made him unable to take his mind of the little girl.
Was it her heroic saving?
Or the little foxy girl always trying to win one over him.
He even wondered if he had seen the money he sent. For someone like him that was worth billions, paying her one million for saving his life was a little too small and so he had deliberately added some amount it.
He also didn’t want to send too much so that she didn’t start to feel dependent on him.
After a while, he felt like he could no longer resist and picked his phone up.
“Lu San, how is it going over there?” He asked, his voice still monotone like always but anyone that was used to how he usually talked would understand that there was a slight edge to his voice that was usually not there normally.
“Nothing much, master, the young lady went to a gadget store to get a computer and some different parts. From the receipt I got from the store, it’s seems like there’s no connection. However, I feel that if you look at it from another angle, there seems to be a more terrifying possibility.” Lu San replied.
He was currently watching Rong Yue, who was strolling like she had no worries in this life while carrying a bulging school bag.
Since he had no idea what relationship she shared with his master, he was paying attention to her even more than an X- level mission. After all, this was a first for them.
On the other side, his words had piqued Qin Yichen’s interest.
“Hmmm, send me the list, I’ll have a look.” He already knew that she wasn’t a newbie with gadgets and computers. For anyone that could detect the presence of a tracker that was placed by those side, she was certainly not a nobody.
For someone as cautious as him, he had found it weird that with her skills, she had no computer at home and had just gotten a phone after she met him.
Where then did the knowledge come from.
Also, the mother and daughter pair’s look....
He wasn’t someone that was moved by beauty or appearance, in fact, he had seen so much of it that he didn’t regard it as anything special anymore. Yet, even he had to admit that the little girl’s look were astonishing.
And so he had to send one of his B level men to check what was going on with her.
It was also another way to kill two birds with one stone. If somehow, those other side discovered that she had helped him, they might find trouble with her so Lu San being there also met that he could rest easy.
“I’ll send it now. Also, I would make a trip to the flower store to check things out as soon as she’s safe at home.” Lu San added before ending the call.
Qin Yichen looked at the list that Lu San had sent almost immediately carefully. It was no news that the second young master of the Qin family was an all round frightening genius.
From technology to finance, to even things as simple as fashion, he knew how to navigate his way in those things more than the average person and while he had his personal strengths, his expertise on those areas was already enough to have people call him a master.
One of his personal strengths was technology. If perhaps, Rong Yue didn’t have the future on her side, it would have been hard to determine who would come out top if they both competed on their knowledge.
And so when he saw the list that Lu San had sent over, he also had that same thought that Lu San had. Yet, he didn’t dare to be presumptuous.
“That should be impossible right? Or is she trying to test it out.” He murmured to himself lost in contemplation.
As he was thinking, the door to his office barged open and a young man with hair dyed purple entered the office.
“Why won’t you tell me that you have returned?” He asked in an attacking and questioning tone as he plopped down on the seat in front of Qin Yichen.
“Do I have to tell you when I know you would be here with no invitation in less than twenty four hours?” Qin Yichen asked with a scoff and then young man rolled his eyes.
“Someday, I won’t be there fussing over you and trying to be there for you. At that time, you would be as lonely as it is.” He threatened.
Every move he made, he always told this boss, even though in most cases. The big boss even knew the move before him.
But at least, he made an effort!
Yichen on the other hand would never tell him anything.
“If I tell you anything important, with how dumb you are, you would probably be dead by now.” Qin Yichen shot back at him with with a what looked like an eye roll and yet wasn’t an eye roll.
“What do you mean? Qin Yichen! Do you take me for someone who’s so weak that they can’t protect themselves?” He cursed out angrily!
Whlile that was going on, Rong Yue suddenly felt like she was being watched as she strolled to the bus station.
At a point, Rong Yue stoped and looked in his direction, however, he was a second faster than her and was able to put on a perfect appearance of someone that was only talking on the phone and rushing somewhere.
Since he managed to fool her, Rong Yue, who had felt like someone was watching her eliminated the young man in casual tops like a college student and looked around one more time.
“It’s probably my imagination.” She murmured and then continued humming as she walked.
“Little Loli, even if I don’t use you, the least you can do is constantly watch around me right?” She asked the system with her mind.
“That’s quite impossible at this system’s level since I have to tap into cameras around to constantly see everything around you. That might cause a disruption in things or even a clash if we pass by a camera that’s being investigated.” The little robot then dived into the many disadvantages that came with it having to watch around her all the time.
“So much just to tell me no!” Rong Yue complained with an eye roll.
Since she had gotten to the bus station, she entered the boss that would take her to their estate.
When she got home.
