Chapter 537: Interview
However, Ling Qingyu didn't linger for long as she felt a little worried about spending time outside like a rough caveman.
She dared not imagine herself suffering. Out of nowhere, she remembered her bracelet and beamed into a bright smile.
Her lips curled up as she laughed heavily. The space inside was so large that even bathing and toiletry could be taken care of.
As someone who lived a luxurious life, why should she suffer? It seemed like Miss System forced her to work because she already possessed a treasure.
According to Miss System, the bracelet originally contained spiritual aura and immortal treasures even if the legendary item was damaged. Yet, these were removed by a tsundere.
Being able to allow a living creature to enter and exit, based on her permission, was a huge boost.
Ling Qingyu no longer had an air of heaviness around her, realizing the depression she disliked would never come true.
The reason why men were preferred on the battlefield was clearly shown here. Although drastic living conditions affected a lot, none of Spirit Fox operators except for Ling Qingyu would have a problem, even if they lived under dire conditions.
Mentally and physically, they had been trained to an unimaginable length. The longer time passed under Tang Ziyi's transfer of inheritance, the more astounding results were seen.
Of course, for men, adapting to those dire living conditions was easier. In terms of hygiene and health, women demanded more stringent conditions; otherwise, they would get infected under worsening conditions.
It couldn't be helped when women with weaker physiques were prone to harmful substances. Plus, the manner, in which the two genders excreted waste, was different.
If living conditions were first-class, even during the battle, Ling Qingyu understood the morales would definitely go up again. Nobody likes suffering if an opportunity to enjoy exists.
She consulted Miss System and Athena to renovate the bracelet's interior space. Fortunately, Miss System talked more today and didn't neglect Ling Qingyu like most of the time.
Even separate small manufacturing assembly lines were possible. How come, right? Ling Qingyu had the same question as anyone who had a clever mind.
Miss System replied the bracelet was storing energy from outside and Ling Qingyu knew where it went after absorbing it based on her improving physique.
But what amazed Ling Qingyu was that these energies could be converted into resources for a separate world inside the bracelet to cultivate itself.
By then, Athena could transfer pertinent machines to produce autonomously—a perfect secret realm, belonging solely to Ling Qingyu.
She hadn't tested out yet. After discussing with Miss System and Athena, she decided to try. Selling cuteness and begging nonstop, Miss System finally relented to allow Athena to navigate inside the bracelet as an AI.
Ling Qingyu was immediately glad. She had a housekeeper to take care of her secret universe.
Since Tang Ziyi should likely talk and cooperate with Athena, Ling Qingyu let them aside. Her Miss System had disappeared and could no longer be called after Ling Qingyu's request.
She shook her head wryly.
Well, she remembered what she was supposed to do today. After treating her mother-in-law at the highest level, Ling Qingyu almost forgot what she decided.
She had sent a message to the woman, who attempted to commit suicide with a kid, introducing herself as a friend contacted by the police officer who rescued her.
After all, Ling Qingyu promised herself to help the people needing charity. Since her foundation establishment needed manpower, this woman could be in the recruitment.
Even though she had no idea about her psychological state yet, Ling Qingyu guessed the woman should have already refrained from killing herself and her child again.
She didn't like dragging one's child toward one's pitfall but Ling Qingyu figured she should give that woman a chance. After Athena's investigation, the woman graduated with flying colors in management subject, suitable as her candidate.
She got pregnant early and married a man, who died in an accident. She had attempted to find jobs but failed and naturally fell under a scumbag's sugarcoating when her mood was at its lowest.
The woman replied with excitement when she saw hope that someone offered her an opportunity. She had been denied because of her gap years, inexperience and a child.
Cheerfully responding to Ling Qingyu's request to meet, the woman thanked her benefactor multiple times. From her tone, Ling Qingyu exhaled and smiled.
At least, this woman lost any thoughts of seeking death. As for how she would solve the lawsuit regarding suicide, Ling Qingyu could hire lawyers and the woman's situation and plight should allow the judge to show mercy.
The poor kid would lose a mother if the woman was charged with crimes. No sane judge would carry on the fruitless punishment. Law existed above but humanity stayed beyond.
Although this was an interview, Ling Qingyu already accepted the woman. What remained was to test her skills and talents.
Ling Qingyu almost forgot to call the woman about today's meeting when she had informed her about the appointment.
Rubbing her nose, Ling Qingyu made a call, which was answered within 2 seconds. She smiled more awkwardly when somebody was waiting with huge hope and anticipation.
"I'm sorry. I was occupied with some serious matter," said Ling Qingyu.
"It's alright, Ma'am. I can understand."
"I still should apologize, right? If I don't look at my schedule at the last moment, I really would have ignored you. Fortunately…" Ling Qingyu didn't say more.
The woman on the opposite line also responded politely. After a casual exchange, Ling Qingyu asked where could they meet.
"Ma'am, you should decide."
"Then, where do you live? I'll pick you up."
"Ah—I don't want to trouble you…"
"Tell me, please don't waste my time." Ling Qingyu gave no escape and the woman finally relayed her address.
Hanging up, she called Su Ruomei again to increase security details around the residence and send more Spirit Fox members to protect the minister as well as increasing the patrolling units to ensure the radius was safe.
Even Athena monitored thoroughly the entire Province nonstop without the slightest care of energy consumption.
Ling Qingyu really couldn't afford a risk of news, where a minister was harmed under her watch.
Su Ruomei understood the severity and promised. Afterward, Ling Qingyu decided to leave the manor to pick up the woman.
In order to prevent stressing the poor lady too much, Ling Qingyu thought about choosing an ordinary vehicle but considering the dangerous factors and for her safety, she drove her Bentley.
Compared to Rolls-Royce and other supercars, Bentley was indeed ordinary.
