Chapter 216 The Helplessness of Pampering
She's never hesitated to take advantage of the live-streaming system!
After returning home, Master Wan paid 10,000 taels to the manager of the calligraphy and painting studio who had come with him. Instead of immediately handing it over to the live streaming system, he first hung it in his study and carefully examined it.
He also wondered why Ms. Yuanshan's calligraphy and paintings carried an emotional value for people. Could he also write calligraphy that could bring such emotional value to people?
After hanging the painting, Master Wan stood in front of it, lost in thought, trying to figure out what it was all about.
Meanwhile, the live streaming system in front of Master Wan kept popping up chat windows, reminding him to hand over the painting.
Master Wan's live streaming system bluntly states: If the host maliciously tempts the system, the system will take electric shock punishment!
Looking at the words "electric shock punishment," Master Wan gritted his teeth, reluctantly clicked on the task in the live stream interface, then on the daily task, and submitted the task.
The moment Master Wan clicked to submit the task, the calligraphy and painting by Ms. Yuanshan hanging on the wall vanished instantly.
What Master Wan saw was that the painting disappeared and was taken away by a mysterious force, but in reality, that was not the case.
The painting is merely being concealed by the high technology of the live streaming system; it is changing with the environment and has not disappeared immediately.
As summer faded, she attached her divine sense to the painting, wondering if she was unable to reclaim the divine sense within it.
That is, at this moment...
The moment Mr. Wan clicked submit, the system considered the task complete and awarded him the "Rice Planting Technology" reward.
It is a book.
Master Wan took it and eagerly began to examine it.
With this book in hand, Wan family will be able to earn another merit!
Thinking about it this way, Master Wan became even more excited and began to read the book in his hands, titled "Rice Cultivation Techniques," with even greater care.
Xia Mo used his divine sense to read through the entire "Rice Cultivation Techniques" book first, memorizing it in his mind, planning to write it down for Huangfu Qian when he returned to the Han family in the capital.
The moment the live streaming system added the drawing to its system inventory...
The live streaming system sensed that the mysterious power within the painting had vanished!
The live streaming system briefly crashed the moment it sensed the disappearance of the mysterious power depicted in the painting.
Mr. Wan, engrossed in acquiring good books, did not notice anything amiss.
She successfully retrieved the portion of divine consciousness she had deliberately released, and also managed to get some freebies from the live-streaming system, including "Rice Planting Technology." She was in a very good mood.
After analyzing the data from the live streaming system, it became clear that the energy in that system might dissipate over time and was therefore unstable.
After further data analysis, the live streaming system concluded that the power might be a special power of this world, but their research on this world was not thorough enough, which is why they only discovered it now!
The live streaming system was unaware that it had suffered a loss it couldn't keep quiet about, and even thought it had made a major discovery.
Master Wan's live streaming system immediately decided to send a signal to the location of the main system to inform it of this major discovery.
Xia Mo dared to do that because she had already calculated what these subsystems, similar to the Gu, would do.
She took the initiative and used her divine sense to simulate the barrier of this world.
She intercepted the signal sent from the live streaming system owned by Master Wan to the sky, that is, beyond the world barrier.
Master Wan's live streaming system still had 90% of its energy remaining. After sending a signal to break through the world barrier, the energy of Master Wan's live streaming system dropped to 80%.
From this, she came to a conclusion.
That is, in order to save energy, the systems will not send information to the main system frequently.
The main system cannot monitor the status of the subsystems in real time.
She decided to share this good news with Huangfu Qian as well.

In the capital, the Han family—
Having watched the show to her heart's content, Xia Mo, disguised as a maid, returned to the Han family home with cheerful steps.
Xia Mo showed no courtesy to Huangfu Qian, directly sneaking into the side courtyard where Huangfu Qian lived and pouncing on him as he sat behind his desk dealing with a pile of affairs.
This time, Huangfu Qian was not the only one in his study; another trusted subordinate he had left in the capital was also there—Jiang Che.
Huangfu Qian dodged as much as possible to avoid Xia Mo's attack, while also signaling with his eyes that there was a third person present.
If Xia Mo would give up on throwing herself into Huangfu Qian's arms just because Jiang Che is here, then she wouldn't be Xia Mo.
She didn't care at all about what other people thought!
A hint of helplessness flashed in Huangfu Qian's eyes as he let Xia Mo rush into his arms and hug him tightly.
"Are you dealing with something important?" Xia Mo sat in Huangfu Qian's lap, casually picked up the paper and pen on the table, picked up the brush, and started writing while talking to Huangfu Qian, multitasking.
“Hmm,” Huangfu Qianchen’s voice was like a mellow old wine.
Xia Mo heard Huangfu Qian's voice, which sounded somewhat different from usual, and stopped writing in surprise. She turned around and looked at Huangfu Qian, whom she was using as a chair.
Huangfu Qian... wavered?
There's some uncertainty at the end of summer.
Huangfu Qian said, "I have a few more important things to tell you."
"You say your thing, I'll do mine, we won't interfere with each other," Xia Mo said, glancing at Huangfu Qianshi, whose expression had returned to normal, before turning back to continue reciting her "Rice Planting Techniques."
A hint of doting helplessness flashed in Huangfu Qian's eyes.
Standing before the desk, Jiang Che, who was reporting on the matter, was so shocked that he seemed to be petrified on the spot. His face remained tense, but in his heart, a storm was churning.
Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!
Their cold-hearted master actually... allowed a little girl to cling to him!
It's so abnormal!
Jiang tried to suppress his emotions, but couldn't. His eyes revealed shock, surprise, and curiosity. He couldn't help but glance at the plain-looking girl again and again.
If he wasn't mistaken, the little girl was wearing a maid's clothes, right?
Could it be that the master... likes the maid?!
No matter how rich Jiang Che's inner monologue was, it was useless. Right now, he also really wanted to find someone else to share with, but the only people he could share his master's affairs with were his four trusted confidants. Unfortunately... none of them were in the capital, so he had no one to share with!
"Continue," Huangfu Qian said, seeing that Xia Mo had no intention of leaving, and simply let Jiang Che continue his report.
“…Yes,” Jiang Che barely managed to recover from his shock. While reporting the information, he couldn’t help but steal a few glances at Xia Mo.
He suddenly remembered Jiang Feng, who had been punished to go to the military camp to start over. But wasn't she supposed to be a fairy-like girl?
Clearly, Jiang Che wasn't as adept at multitasking as Xia Mo, and his expression betrayed his lack of skill.
Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Che finally finished reporting what he had to say and reluctantly left to take care of the latest instructions from his master.
