Max Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey…?

Chapter 36: 36th Chapter: The Ancestral Warning Comes True
 

Mr. Cao was startled and then realized that it was a call from his assistant.

He barely steadied his soul before he answered and started shouting, “Didn’t you just leave? Why are you calling me again? Don’t you know the doctor is checking on me?!”

“Boss… we’ve had a car accident…” came the weak voice of the assistant from the other end of the phone.

“What…” Mr. Cao stiffened suddenly.

The assistant said in a panic, “We, we don’t know what happened, but as soon as the car turned onto the avenue, we had an accident. It seems like the brakes failed. Luckily, we’re all mostly okay, but boss, the young master’s engagement party… we might not make it…”

Mr. Cao: “…”

The content of the text message from Xia Xin suddenly flashed through his mind.

Heavens, there really are such strange things in this world!

…

At the same time.

Jiangli and Xia Xin finished shopping and took a cab back to Jiaoyang Temple.

Throughout the journey, she fiddled with her mobile phone. Under Xia Xin’s step-by-step patient guidance, she more or less understood the phone’s primary functions.

Jiangli, however, was fixated on the idea of mobile payments. She suddenly looked at Xia Xin and asked, “I want to get a bank card, I want to do mobile payments, too. I want everything you have.”

Xia Xin: “…”

He looked at his childish ancestor with a wry smile.

“Ancestor, it’s not that simple. We have to get your ID card sorted out tomorrow before we can open a bank account, and you need money in the card to make mobile payments.”

Xia Xin coaxed, “Ancestor, let’s go get your ID card first tomorrow, then we will apply for the card, is that okay?”

Jiangli frowned, “Modern people are really troublesome.”

But she didn’t say anything else.

Xia Xin knew she had agreed and breathed a sigh of relief.

The taxi driver in front had listened to their entire conversation and was bewildered, feeling as if he’d picked up a guest from ancient times.

Under this impression, he dropped off Xia Xin and Jiangli at Jiaoyang Temple.

Jiangli got out of the taxi first.

Xia Xin went to fetch the large and small bags.

As soon as she got out of the car, Jiangli noticed a particularly distinctive car outside Jiaoyang Temple.

The car was large, not streamlined, boxy, like a sheet of iron, all-black, looking like an armored knight.

Jiangli was never interested in these things; what attracted her was the familiar purple aura emanating from the car!

“The distinguished guest I’ve been waiting for has finally arrived!”

As Xia Xin came over with the bags, he heard her say this and asked instinctively, “What distinguished guest? Where?!”

Jiangli curled her lips slightly but didn’t answer, walking straight towards the car.

Xia Xin then saw the vehicle.

Boys probably naturally have a fondness for cars.

Xia Xin was also knowledgeable about cars, and he recognized at a glance that this was a top-of-the-line luxury off-road vehicle!

How much would a full outfitted custom set like this cost?!

Xia Xin internally gasped, still clutching the bags, and quickly followed her.

As Jiangli approached the car, a slight sound was heard, and the car door opened.

“It’s that guy from before!” Xia Xin’s eyes widened as he saw the handsome man they had met earlier, stepping out of the luxury car!

Then, another man alighted from the driver’s seat, a buzz cut, dressed in black work clothes, wearing sunglasses that made his face unclear, but his presence was intimidating, obviously not someone to be provoked lightly.

Xia Xin instinctively felt a bit cowed and hid behind Jiangli.

Jiangli took no notice, her gaze fixed directly and intensely on Fu Shiyan.

Those unaware would think she was coveting Fu Shiyan.
