Chapter 115 Discussion
A cool night breeze rises, the darkness outside the window is thick as ink, and the temperature drops again.

Jiang Mian sent the document she had prepared to Zhou Bai.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Bai received the message the very next second after she sent it.

Zhou Bai: Received. You've worked hard today. Take a good rest tomorrow.

Jiang Mian paused slightly when she saw this sentence. Did telling her to take a good rest tomorrow mean giving her a day off?
She thought about sending a message to ask: Mr. Zhou, can you give me a day off tomorrow?
Zhou Bai quickly replied: Okay.

Jiang Mian looked at this one word, blinked gently. So this boss is pretty good. She'll put aside the compensation for today's emotional distress for now and get another day off for free.

The two stopped exchanging messages.

There was a knock on Jiang Mian's door.

She opened the door and saw that Qixu had returned.

"Master, I'm back. Is there something you want to discuss with me?" Qi Xu gently raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Mian's chin.

Jiang Mian also remembered that at noon, she asked the other party to come back and discuss something after settling her younger sister.

"Okay, come in. I need to discuss something with you." Jiang Mian stepped aside to let him in.

Inside the room, Jiang Mian sat on the bed, while Qi Xu sat in a chair.

"By the way, why did you return the money I gave you today?" Jiang Mian asked slowly. "How are you going to take care of your sister without money?"

"Don't worry, Master. I'll let my sister stay at the home of one of my beastman friends in Baicheng for now," Qi Xu said softly. "Once I've saved enough money, I'll buy a small house near you and then I'll bring my sister to live there."

He revealed his plan, his pink eyes slightly narrowed: "My sister and I will live in a small building near Master. Although I won't live with Master anymore, I will still come to help Master with chores every day."

Qi Yun is blind, but Qi Xu is still worried about letting her live alone in a small building.

Upon hearing his plan, Jiang Mian naturally didn't intend to interfere. Instead, she asked another question: "Qi Xu, I'll give you the status of a free orc. From now on, I'll be your employer, and I'll pay you a fixed salary every month. You can quit whenever you want."

Qi Xu's hands, which were originally resting on his knees, tightened slightly, and his long eyelashes drooped. He wanted to be Jiang Mian's beast slave forever, or perhaps he wanted to be with her forever, no matter what their status was.

He knew he was unworthy to be his master's beastly husband, so he would just remain his master's beastly slave.

"Qixu wants to be his master's beast slave forever." The boy's voice seemed slightly dry and very soft.

“It’s alright. I’ll give you the status of a free orc. You’ll do pretty much the same things as you do now,” Jiang Mian said casually with a smile. “It’s just a matter of unbinding you and turning you into an employer-employee relationship.”

Qi Xu's eyes lowered slightly. Although they were beast slave and master, he didn't want to untie them. It was as if untying them would sever the connection between them.

However, the initiative was not in his hands.

Jiang Mian was able to untie herself easily.

She manipulated the computer, and the master-slave relationship between the two was severed, and the chip in his brain was also rendered useless.

"Alright." Jiang Mian raised her eyebrows slightly. "From now on, you'll be a free orc."

When Qi Xu heard these words, she wasn't as happy as Jiang Mian had imagined. Instead, her voice seemed to choke up: "Thank you, Master..."

Jiang Mian paused, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy to have gained the status of a free orc?"

"No, Master, I'm just so happy that I'm a little choked up." Qi Xu smiled faintly, but only he knew the bitterness in his mouth.

Jiang Mian didn't think much of it, after all, Qi Xu was also wearing a mask, so she couldn't see his expression clearly.

"A salary of ten thousand star coins a month," Jiang Mian continued. "What do you think?"

Qi Xu was silent for a moment, then finally agreed, "Thank you, Master." "By the way, how about I lend you some money first? It's not convenient for your sister to stay with another beastman's family for the time being. You can take the money and buy a house nearby first, and then work for me and pay me back later," Jiang Mian suggested.

"No need, Master." Qixu gently shook her head. "Qixu will be able to buy a house nearby soon."

He didn't want to trouble Jiang Mian anymore.

Jiang Mian looked at the boy for a while, and seemed to understand his pride, so she nodded: "Okay."

“Master, I won’t be staying in this building for a while,” Qi Xu said slowly. “My sister is staying alone with my beastman friend, and I’m not comfortable with her being alone, so I’ll be staying with her with my beastman friend for the time being.”

He trusted his orc friends, but not his sister.

After Qi Xu settled his sister in and came to see Jiang Mian, his friend sent him a text message saying that his sister had been staying in her room quietly and hadn't said a word.

He felt he should go and be with her.

"Either is fine." Jiang Mian nodded gently.

Qi Xu subtly raised his pink eyes, glanced at Jiang Mian, and quickly looked away, then gently pursed his lips.

The owner had no objection to him moving to another place.

Yes, he was just an insignificant beast slave.

"Goodnight, Master." Qi Xu gently lowered her eyebrows, concealing the watery blush that welled up in her pink eyes.

How long can an employment relationship last? Qi Xu didn't know.

The initiative was never in his hands.

Qixu left.

Jiang Mian was just getting ready to sleep when Zhou Bai gave her a day off so she could get a good night's rest.

Around midnight, the lights in Jiang Mian's room were already off.

Li Yan stood tall outside Jiang Mian's room, his face extremely gloomy.

He was damp, clearly having just taken a shower to wash away the smell of blood.

He came back late.

His bounty hunter team recently came to White City, naturally because Li Yan had taken on many jobs on this exile star.

Li Yan finally got to work with the team in real life.

Today, Li Yan led his team to collect Bone-Eating Flowers in the most dangerous part of the inner perimeter of the White Moon Forest, where they were pursued by many Fang forces.

Li Yan led his team to collect the Bone-Corroding Flower. In addition to encountering various poisonous flowers and insects, they were also pursued by multiple groups who wanted to kill him and interfere with his mission.

After he fought back against one wave, escaped another, fled again, and finally defeated his opponent, completing his mission, he returned to the small building in the middle of the night.

In that instant, Li Yan, who was standing at the door of Jiang Mian enjoying the cool breeze, suddenly understood what was going on. He laughed angrily, and his face darkened even more.

These wretches, how dare they do this to him!

That's so I won't let him warm my bed.
