Chapter 1346 - 36: A Bountiful Harvest! Digging Graves to Bury Others
The so-called "night school" is actually a "basic training class" set up by the Wang Family to help new "migrant workers" adapt to the environment quickly. Since it is usually held at night, it is habitually referred to as "night school".
She is currently working in the hotel, so naturally, she is attending the hotel’s "night school".
The things taught at night school are more trivial, including job training for relevant positions in the hotel, basic "literacy classes," and occasionally "professional competitions" and "basic knowledge contests." If one achieves good results in these competitions, there are usually many rewards, sometimes cash rewards, sometimes material rewards, or even a promotion and salary increase.
Qing Ji arrived relatively early.
When she arrived, there were only a few people sitting in the room. Consequently, she immediately saw a familiar figure — Purple Lady.
In contrast to her bright and professional business suit that looked quite glamorous, Purple Lady’s situation seemed much worse. She wore a gray work robe used by the hotel’s logistics staff, durable and dirt-resistant, but not at all attractive.
That charming and heroic face now bore a somewhat gloomy expression.
"What’s wrong, Little Zhi’Er? Had a rough day?" Qing Ji glanced once and then withdrew her gaze, using telepathy, her tone teasing.
This hotel has one good thing, which is that the strongest person stationed here is only at the Celestial Human Realm, so apart from not being able to use force, in other respects, it’s quite convenient for her. She doesn’t have to worry about being discovered when using telepathy.
"How can it be smooth?" Purple Lady’s eyebrows moved, and she replied via telepathy, "You have it easy, just sitting at the front desk doing some registration and bookkeeping, unlike me, sorting through hundreds of rooms every day and being so busy I hardly have time to catch my breath."
It’s not that she minds the exhaustion — given her Purple Mansion Realm physique, such work hardly counts as tiring. But having painstakingly climbed up from the bottom tier of the Demon Dynasty to reach the Purple Mansion Realm, she’s long used to others serving her, so why would she be willing to serve others?
Serving her master, she could at least get some benefits out of it, but now what is this? What could those in the Spirit Platform Realm, Qi Refining Realm, or even those ordinary people without cultivation offer her?
Moreover, this Wang Family is truly problematic.
A hotel so luxurious that it allows ordinary people without cultivation to stay, and even the guest rooms they use are outfitted with Glazed Lamps, glazed dishware; even the quilt covers are made of silk. Do those people deserve such things?
The only thing she finds somewhat comforting, perhaps, is that she doesn’t have to wash those changed sheets and covers.
The artifact refining products made by the Wang Family are indeed useful. They just need to send the dirty sheets and covers inside, and they’ll be washed and dried directly. They only need to be taken out and folded. If she really had to wash those sheets and covers by hand, she’d definitely go insane.
"Who told you to disdain the textbooks distributed by the Wang Family and refused to study them properly?" Seeing Purple Lady so depressed, Qing Ji was not sympathetic at all; instead, she sneered in her heart, "If you had put in a bit of effort to study like I did, you wouldn’t have fallen to this point."
As a confidant disciple of the Chi Mei Demon Envoy, her relationship with Purple Lady was naturally not very harmonious. The two often schemed and fought for their master’s attention and affection.
This is precisely because the two are now concurrently trapped in enemy territory, and apart from each other, they have no one else to trust, that she spoke a bit tactfully. If it were before, she would have mocked and ridiculed her without reservation.
"Hmph~ Don’t be so smug yet." Purple Lady snorted angrily, "Those things aren’t hard. Even if I start learning now, I can catch up. Last class, the teacher even praised me. It won’t be long before I’m sure I can be transferred to work in the lobby."
Once she surpasses Qing Ji, she can turn the tables and laugh at her!
"Alright~ then you keep working on it~"
Qing Ji secretly laughed heartily to herself, but then, thinking about the recent situation, her laughter faded.
She asked Purple Lady, "Have you gotten in touch with our Master?"
"No." Upon mentioning this topic, a worried look appeared on Purple Lady’s face, "I managed to connect with Lady Jade during a shopping trip. But she also has no news of our Master, saying she went with Wang Anye to the Great Wilderness Marsh and then no news came back. Who knows what the situation is?"
She is not worried that their Master would face danger; however, given the current situation, not being able to contact the Master makes her heart anxious~
She couldn’t really stay in the Wang Family’s hotel forever, working for the Wang Family, could she?
What could be done with the two Qian Gold salary the Wang Family pays per month? In the Demon Dynasty, it wouldn’t even cover the cost of a meal.
While the two were talking, the other people in the room were also chatting among themselves, discussing daily trivialities, from what they ate today to which shop in town has the best and cheapest rouge, and even which young master is the most handsome, with the best temperament, and so on.
Unexpectedly, the topic suddenly veered towards Wang Anye.
"Young Master An Ye went out this time, who knows how long he will be gone. If it’s like before, having left for several months, we will be long before seeing him again." A female staff member, propping her chin, said with a lovesick smile, "I still remember the last time Young Master An Ye inspected the hotel, he was so handsome and gentle, simply the ideal Noble Young Master in my heart. I wonder when he will come again~~"
