How come I was the one being targeted?

There are no labels on the ability introduction, usage methods or side effects. In other words, just because you draw it does not mean you can use it, because you still have to guess what it is. It is not as convenient and powerful as you imagined. It is a half-finished system.

Leaving aside the beautiful young man, we can roughly guess that this ability is just as the name suggests, which should be an attribute like increasing one's charm value.

After exploring the Mind Catcher's ability for a long time, he had almost figured it out, which was basically that he could listen to the other person's thoughts for a short time.

It sounds powerful, but in fact, the uncontrollable factors are too great, and only fragments of words can be separated from the other party's inner activities occasionally. Both the accuracy and controllability are quite poor.

For example, let's say the other person is thinking, "I should have dealt with this person before."

If the Mind Catcher ability worked properly, then Bai Jun would be able to know what the other person was thinking. However, if this ability went awry, it would be a different story, because it would break the sentence into: "I should have had dealings with this person before—"

It's simply taken out of context!

In addition, Bai Jun has no control over the timing of activating his ability, and sometimes he will even automatically listen to his pet's thoughts. It can be said that this is an ability that does more harm than good. Fortunately, this thing is only triggered once in a while, so it is still tolerable.

However, it is obvious that the real heavyweight ability is the one below called the Grace of the Sun. It has been taken out for so long, let alone how to use it, he doesn't even know what it is. No matter if he shouts all kinds of middle school names to the sky or strikes all kinds of embarrassing poses, he can't use it. So much so that he still suspects that there is a bug in the system of this groove?

Does this system think it's humorous? Or does it enjoy being a riddler? No, it can't be called a riddler, because this dead system doesn't make any sound at all.

The same is true for the ability I just drew:

"Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment......"

It sounds cool, like a weapon from some game, and it seems to be compatible with him?

Bai Jun was holding an oil-paper umbrella and kept muttering about the props he had just drawn on the way back.

But no matter how he called out, the pair of guns didn't respond at all. Bai Jun sighed: Forget it, I've gotten used to it anyway, so I might as well not think about it anymore.

Look on the bright side, at least I have a new place to live.

After walking around the street with an umbrella for a few laps and killing some time, Bai Jun slowly returned to the office of the Land Investiture Bureau.

"Hiss, it hurts so much."

I folded up my oil-paper umbrella at the entrance and looked at my wet shirt and trousers with some worry, regretting that I had just played in the water outside.

Just as it was when I left before, the government office was still bustling with activity. Except for the unruly Deacon Songyan, the rest of the people were almost all red in the face and ears. They were so angry that they almost dragged the people from Yuzhao over and beat them up.

Indeed, some people do things without thinking, no matter how big or small the matter is, from their children's coming-of-age ceremony to how high to turn the stove when cooking, and even what to eat for lunch today, they have to ask the people from the Land and Horizon Division. It is really too annoying. Bai Jun has suggested more than once that those troublemakers should be arrested.

Because everyone was busy with their own things, and he had a low sense of presence, no one even noticed him during the several minutes that passed until he pulled a book from the bookshelf, turned on the desk lamp, took a towel from the counter, and finally made a cup of steaming hot tea.

But Bai Jun likes this kind of life. He took a sip of hot tea and looked up at the quarter-hour mark. It was less than half an hour before he could get off work.

It’s great, another morning has passed by. This is how we should be passionate about life, isn’t it?

After a while, Deacon Jingyan walked to the center of the government office and clapped his hands. The crisp sound stopped the working social animals:

"Okay, thank you all for your hard work this morning. There are still ten minutes until the end of the day. Let's take this time to summarize the performance of the past two weeks."

"Oh, that's great, I'm finally saved..."

After receiving this order, everyone seemed to be relieved. They closed their offices and collapsed in their seats like puppets with broken strings or drowned fish. Some service staff who had no seats sat on the floor without caring about the water stains.

Jingyan's eyes swept over everyone, finally landing on Bai Jun, who was leisurely drinking tea and reading. "Remember to tell me when you come back next time, otherwise it will be considered as absenteeism, Qingyan."

Bai Jun naturally didn't say much, and just perfunctorily dealt with it with words like "I know I was wrong." "I will definitely do it next time!" and "You are absolutely right." The way he handled things skillfully showed that he had been caught slacking off many times in the past.

However, upon hearing this, the colleagues around him turned their gazes towards Bai Jun, their eyes filled with surprise and confusion.

"Huh? When did Qing Yan come back?"

"I just realized it when you said that. Actually, I've been wanting to ask for a long time, isn't Qing Yan's presence too low?"

"That's what I mean. She's so pretty, but why does she have such a low profile?"

Listening to the whispers below, Deacon Jingyan coughed again, interrupting their curiosity: "Okay, let's start the summary. Don't talk."

Jingyan knocked on the blackboard behind him, which represented performance, and picked up the red chalk to add another line under Bai Jun's name: "Just now, a client gave Qingyan a five-star rating. I would like to commend him..."

Looking at the large patches of red praise on Bai Jun's performance report, and then looking at the flood of negative reviews on other colleagues, this huge gap has already determined who will receive the Best Service Award this month.

However, there was no other emotion on the faces of the others, only sincere admiration.

The other colleagues in the Land Horizon Division are no longer surprised by this dazzling star who has been on the list of best service for three consecutive years since he came here.

If I have to say something, it's admiration. After all, facing those monsters at work, it takes a god to be able to hold back from swearing for even a second, not to mention maintaining a peaceful state of mind at work. And this guy even managed to get no negative reviews throughout the whole year. He is simply the reincarnation of Bu Tian Siming.

With such incredible achievements, if it were an ordinary person, he would have been promoted to the General Affairs Department of the Xingcha Sea Center and rose to prominence. At the very least, he could have become a deacon in a local government office.

But what about this person? He actually refused them all and still clung to his grassroots post, contributing to the people of Luofu day in and day out. He vividly demonstrated what it means to be a comrade of the Land Horizontal Department and move wherever there is a need.

The brilliance of humanity emanating from this level of righteousness made them feel ashamed, and sometimes they even felt that the so-called Best Service Award was not worthy of Bai Jun.

think about it.

She is capable at work, has high emotional intelligence, and is tactful in her dealings. Not only is she good-looking, but she is also very kind-hearted. And according to gossip, she seems to have a close relationship with General Jing Yuan. They are so happy to have such a colleague who combines ability, talent, good looks, and background.

As for jealousy? Resentment?

No, no, no, when the gap reaches a certain level, there will be no other thoughts except looking up.

After a brief review, the hard work of the morning finally ushered in a break of about two hours. The rain outside was also gradually subsiding, so other colleagues from the Land and Horizon Company invited Bai Jun to have a meal together, but he declined.

"Sorry, I have other things to do at noon today."

Bai Jun explained embarrassedly. Of course, his colleagues would not blame this celebrity. Although some female colleagues pouted in disappointment, they still left very considerately.

When I walked under the eaves, I saw that the rain had stopped and the artificial haze on the dome was gradually disappearing, so I simply didn't bring an oil-paper umbrella.

There were still many puddles on the road, so Bai Jun deliberately slowed down his pace. He didn't want to get his trouser legs wet again.

Because it had just rained, there were not many people on the street, but some roadside businesses still opened their doors one after another, adding a bit of vitality to the cold and deserted scene.

Walking up to the top of Changletian, there is a store he often visits. In addition to the tea he wants to drink and the spicy red oil chopped beef offal, Bai Jun also habitually ordered a cup of Immortal Happy Tea, a portion of Mingou Cake and a small portion of Tapir Bun.

After a while, the boss brought the meal up and also gave him a portion of Qiongshi bird skewers as a gift. However, Bai Jun did not start eating, but stared at the scenery below with boredom.

Sitting in the teahouse here, sipping tea and enjoying the view is quite elegant. However, it was not long before this brief elegance was broken by a sound as warm and lively as a clear spring.

"Guess who I am?"

A pair of soft little hands covered Bai Jun's eyes and asked with a faint smile.

Smelling the familiar scent of shampoo and feeling the soft touch of the little hand, Bai Jun answered almost without thinking:

"Lord Fu Xuan."

"Guessed right...huh?"

The brown-haired girl's smile froze.

Chapter 3: Brother, You're So Sweet

There is only one thought in Qingque's mind now: Why is it Master Fu Xuan...

No! Why would Master Fu Xuan play this with you?

But before she could get angry, when she saw Bai Jun's smiling eyes, Qingque instantly realized that he was teasing her.

After a moment of hesitation, two blushes of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Qingque's delicate and pretty little face.

"Humph, Qing Yan is a fool. I won't play with you anymore."

She pouted in dissatisfaction, crossed her waist and looked like she was turning around to leave, but her white and tender legs never left her feet, appearing quite honest.

Although she looked angry, her whole body exuded a soft and gentle feeling. Her little face turned to the side, but she would turn her eyes to glance at him from time to time, as if to say, "Come and comfort me!"

Bai Jun, of course, went down the stairs and quickly pulled her to his seat. He then attentively handed her a steaming cup of Immortal Happy Tea. "How was your work this morning?"

"Hey, why do you start talking about work right away..."

Although she said this, her tone was obviously softer, and the hot fairy happy tea in her hand seemed to be able to bring warmth to her heart.

"It's just like always. Whenever I have some free time, the Grand Astrologer will appear like a divine omen and assign me some small tasks. It's really a chance to steal a little time from my busy life. Hmm... how do you say it?"

"Life is but a moment, and yet it is always busy and hustling. When will it end?"

"Yes, yes, Qingyan, you understand me."

Bai Jun gently smoothed her long brown hair tied into two ponytails as if soothing a kitten or puppy, and shared with her what happened at work today.

After a moment, Qingque, who had been stern just now, burst out laughing: "And then you rented that house for less than half the original price?"

Bai Jun nodded. He had already planned to move. One reason was to avoid certain people, and the other was to get some peace and quiet.

"Qingyan, can you really tell Feng Shui from the compass?" Qingque has always been interested in his compass, so he curiously leaned over and looked at Bai Jun with anticipation.

"Of course not."

The conversation ended abruptly, and Bai Jun sighed helplessly, "It's just a gimmick. Otherwise, how could they believe me? They wouldn't listen to my rational explanations, always relying on some vague and illusory things. After a long time, I got too lazy to argue with them anymore and just gave in. But the effect was surprisingly good."

Bai Jun took a leisurely sip of tea and took out the compass. Pretty girls gathered around him. A curious head was reflected on the compass.

"Besides, that guy runs a renovation company, but the streets within a few miles of Jinren Lane are all newly renovated buildings. How can he get business? I'm not a liar."

Looking at Bai Jun's profile, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, and her eyes were gentle and reserved with a hint of restraint and shyness. Her eyes flickered, and her eyelashes were as light as a newborn butterfly. When she got closer, she could even smell the faint lime scent on Bai Jun's body. Should it be the smell of shampoo?

【Brother, you smell great! 】

"puff!"

The sudden thought in his mind made Bai Jun spit out the tea on the spot, followed by a violent cough.

"Hey, are you okay, Qingyan?"

Qingque immediately stepped forward and patted him on the back gently, his face full of worry.

“No, it’s okay…”

Seeing the genuine worry revealed in Qingque, Bai Jun shook his head in shock and suspicion, wondering if this ability had acted up again.

How could Qingque say such nonsense?

Yes, it must be his ability that's acting up again. After all, this situation hasn't happened once or twice. After convincing himself in his heart, Bai Jun smiled awkwardly and scratched his cheek: "I just choked while drinking water, nothing to worry about."

"All right...."

After hearing what Bai Jun said, Qingque had no choice but to sit back in her seat. Looking at Bai Jun's blue eyes as clear as cornflowers and his slightly troubled expression, for some reason, she felt an inexplicable... excitement in her heart?

By the way, has Qingyan become more beautiful recently? Oh my, this won’t do. If this continues, what if someone bad gets on her mind?

Qingque was daydreaming with all kinds of thoughts in her mind, while her eyes were always fixed on Bai Jun's profile. The fork in her hand unknowingly made a mess of the tapir bun on the plate.

"What are you thinking about? Your expression seems weird..." As if with an accurate sixth sense, Bai Jun seemed to have sensed what was going on in her mind, and couldn't help but look at her with some confusion.

"Hehe, it's nothing." Qingque smiled innocently and lowered his head to eat some tapir rolls to ease the embarrassment. However, when he saw the egg rolls messed up by the fork, he suddenly fell silent again.

"Qingyan, try the tapir rolls, they're delicious!" He decisively exchanged the messy plate of tapir rolls with Bai Jun opposite him, and then very rudely snatched the spicy red oil chopped beef offal that Bai Jun had just eaten half of.

“Mine is a little spicy.”

"It's okay! I'm not afraid of spicy food!"

Bai Jun's lips moved slightly. Since the girls didn't care, he naturally didn't say much. He lowered his head and began to deal with the tapir buns left by Qingque.

While Qingque was eating the beef offal in the bowl, he was secretly observing Bai Jun. Especially after he ate the tapir bun that he had eaten, the joy in his heart grew even bigger. He felt that the beef offal in the bowl had become much more delicious. He didn't notice how much chili peppers were added to the bowl filled with red oil.

After a while, when the spiciness came over him, Qingque suddenly realized that something was wrong: "Wait a minute! Why is it so spicy!"

"Hmm? The doctor told me that spicy food is good for the body." Bai Jun explained while pushing the Fairy Happy Tea that Qingque had not finished drinking over to him.

Qingque drank without thinking, but even so, the spicy taste in his mouth did not subside. "Ugh, whose doctor told me to eat something so spicy!"

She was so spicy that she was incoherent. She stuck out her pink tongue and inhaled the cool air, trying to relieve the spiciness in this way.

After finishing the tapir rolls on his plate, Bai Jun put down his chopsticks, propped up his cheek and teased, "You always act like a child."

"What are you talking about? I'm already an adult!" Thinking of this, Qingque didn't even care about the burning sensation in his mouth, and immediately patted his chest to prove that he was already an adult who could stand on his own.

She didn't want to be treated simply as a younger sister by Bai Jun. From the beginning to the end, what she wanted was to be treated like someone of the opposite sex.

Bai Jun took the medicinal tea brought by the boss, thanked him, and placed it on his desk. He shook his head and said, "You still don't understand, little Qingque."

"what the hell?"

“Only when more and more hair falls on your pillow and your favorite sandwich disappears from convenience stores, and these tiny despairs continue to accumulate, will people grow up.” Bai Jun lives like a six or seven hundred year old fellow who is about to fall into the evil shadows. He always likes to say some pessimistic and philosophical words in a serious manner.

"Qingyan, how old are you this year? I always feel that you are like an old man sometimes." Qingque took another sip of the Fairy Happy Tea. She guessed that Bai Jun was about the same age as her, and her tense fingertips revealed a hint of expectation.

Bai Jun added sugar cubes into the medicinal tea piece by piece and said casually: "19"

"Huh?" Qingque's eyes widened in surprise, and her delicate and pretty face was filled with a silly clarity, which made her look very cute.
