I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2669 - 1660: Waiting for Good News

"Morning."

Tying an apron, Jiang Chen was busy in the kitchen when he heard a sound and looked up; it was Tanki Liuli.

"Is she still sleeping?"

Although he was locked out last night, Boss Jiang certainly didn’t sweat the small stuff.

Later, when he returned to his room, he thought it was good to let Li Shuru calm down. But he probably didn’t expect that Li Shuru might have fallen asleep earlier than him.

"Yes."

"The Martial Saint has gone to school; try my egg sauce noodles later."

Jiang Chen said with a smile, busy with breakfast and chatting with Daoist Sister, "When did you two go to sleep last night?"

When they went to sleep...

I don’t know.

Anyway, it must have been very late.

Of course.

That’s just referring to myself.

Luckily, the young Taoist nun is a reclusive expert; if it were a normal person, they’d surely have two dark circles on their face now.

"Why did you argue?"

Although the young Taoist nun is not worldly, she’s not naive either.

The atmosphere last night - it wasn’t a fight, so it must have been an argument.

"It wasn’t an argument, just a bit of a misunderstanding."

Boss Jiang acted nonchalant, still stubborn and talking nonsense, treating the Taoist nun as a fool.

"Just keep the door closed tonight."

Spoken lightly.

But the name on the property deed here is Li Shuru.

Including him, Tanki Liuli and the others were all guests.

Because Jiang Chen understood Daoist Sister’s situations, he didn’t mind at all. He served a bowl of noodles and helped place it on the dining table, "No need to wait, let’s eat first."

Tanki Liuli sat down to eat the noodles.

"Did she say anything to you last night?"

Being seated beside her, Boss Jiang began probing for information.

Despite being forthright, no one likes to air their dirty laundry - he’s definitely unwilling to let more people know about this.

Tanki Liuli shook her head.

Though Li Shuru involved Daoist Sister, Jiang Chen had confidence that his girlfriend had a sense of the bigger picture, so she likely wouldn’t spread it around.

"Sorry, for disturbing your rest. This kind of thing won’t happen again."

Boss Jiang is confident he can handle it well, but will Tanki Liuli, who didn’t sleep well last night, believe him?

"I need to go out for a bit."

Tanki Liuli suddenly said.

Jiang Chen was caught off guard and instinctively asked, "Where to?"

"I’ll be back in a few days."

Tanki Liuli didn’t explain.

No one can resolve household matters easily.

She certainly understands this rationale.

If it can’t be solved, it’s better to avoid it and let them handle it themselves.

The bed outside may not be bigger than this one, but it’s surely no smaller than last night’s.

"Is that Liu something here again?"

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but think; what could Daoist Sister be up to? He recalled the badass Major General sister more fierce than Wang Heting, who previously passed by the East Sea, searched for Daoist Sister for sparring, and he joined the fun, nearly beaten to death by her.

She wasn’t just a military queen bee; she was a proper military berserk dragon.

"No."

Tanki Liuli shook her head, denying.

Indeed.

The last sparring might seem inconclusive due to his interruption, but the real outcome was decided.

The lady Major General at most had mastered physical cultivation, whereas Daoist Sister is a cultivator.

They aren’t even in the same league.

Even if passing by again, there’s no need to waste time.

Moreover, she’s truly a Major General; how could she be so idle?

"What is it then?"

Jiang Chen wouldn’t let it go, persistent in prying.

Tanki Liuli lowered her head, eating noodles silently.

Tsk.

Secrets are starting to appear.

This feeling is like a father watching his daughter grow up and begin to mind her privacy, wary of him.

Inevitably, there’s some... adaptation.

"If you don’t tell me, I can’t agree to let you go. The Old Immortal entrusted Colonel Wang to hand you over to me, I have to be responsible for your safety."

Boss Jiang proclaimed openly.

Mentioning the Old Father might be an exaggeration, but at least he’s assuming the guardian role.

It’s not incorrect.

With her in his care, he must take responsibility.

However, it cannot be treated the same way for every case; specific situations need specific analysis.

Not to mention Daoist Sister is already an adult, talking about Daoist Sister’s skills, who needs whose protection exactly?

Tanki Liuli raised her head, probably shaken by someone’s nerve; after enduring it, she sharply said, "You don’t need to know."

Jiang Chen was stumped, feeling increasingly discomforted.

It hasn’t even been years.

How did the child grow up so quickly?

"If you insist on not telling me, then I can only..."

He intended to summon the Old Immortal but realized he didn’t have his contact info, moreover, as an immortal, he needn’t use an iPhone, can’t make a call, so quick-thinking, Jiang Chen brought up the only two people who could hold sway.

"... I can only call your senior sister."

Unexpectedly, Daoist Sister was indifferent, not even raising her head this time.

"Suit yourself."

Okay.

Children inevitably grow up.

Jiang Chen, out of options, sat there silently, like all parents, recalling the child’s obedient, gentle, sensible times.

"There’s a Xuanlin Flood Dragon at the Wusong River that’s about to undergo a trial; I have to take a look."

Tanki Liuli suddenly broke the silence.

Perhaps.

She softened.

Maybe feeling pity for someone looking depressed.

But—

Wait a second.

Xuanlin Flood Dragon?

Trial?

Is this an explanation or just a jest?

Jiang Chen sat there stunned, staring at the young Taoist nun.

The young Taoist nun lowered her head again, eating noodles, not giving him a chance to read her expression, though even given the chance, Jiang Chen would likely not discern anything.

"You mean, in this world, there are monsters?"

"You didn’t know?"
