After being read, I was really numb

Liu Mei originally felt that she had stolen Liu Yuan's jewelry and felt a little guilty.

Now that she was ruthlessly fired by Liu Yuan, she felt that she had received too little and believed that all this was owed to her by Liu Yuan.

The sincere devotion I have shown to the Lan family over the years cannot be compensated by this little bit of money.

Liu Mei wiped her tears and, under the urging of housekeeper Lin, had to reluctantly go with him to settle her wages.

Just as she turned around and took two steps, Liu Yuan's voice rang out again.

"Liu Mei, we have been together for nearly twenty years. I think I have never treated you unfairly. You have the highest salary in the industry and the least work, and I have never restricted your daily behavior."

"When you leave this time, I, Liu Yuan, and no one in my Lan family will let you down, so I hope you won't do anything to let down the Lan family or me."

"This is my last advice to you, Liu Mei. I hope you will take it to heart."

"Thank you, ma'am, for your reminder." Liu Mei looked at the arrogant Liu Yuan and felt resentful and aggrieved in her heart, so angry that her heart ached.

She really couldn't understand. She had just said a few words on behalf of Xiao Xin today, but how did she lose her job for no reason?

It was only then that Liu Mei realized that from beginning to end, including her own dismissal, Xiao Xin, whom she had protected, had not said a word during the entire process.

The annoying Liu Mei was taken away by Butler Lin.

Xiao Xin opened her big timid eyes, looking innocent and pitiful, as if she was frightened by the incident that just happened.

Liu Yuan calmed down and looked at the girl who appeared to be as pure as paper. Her appearance was so beautiful, but it was a pity that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were all black.

How could she be so cruel? Just because her family concealed their identity as the richest man, she tortured her entire family to death?

Liu Yuan's straight gaze made Xiao Xin feel uneasy.

[Mom, if you keep watching, my delicious pig stomach and chicken will get cold.]

Lan Xingyue's inner muttering made Liu Yuan's expression soften. When Xiao Xin saw the smile in Liu Yuan's eyes, she thought that Liu Yuan still had feelings for her.

Liu Yuan: "Miss Xiao rarely comes home, and it's time for dinner. Would you like to have dinner together?"

Xiao Xin: "Okay, I'm hungry too, thank you Aunt Liu."

"Miss Xiao, please come this way."

"Thank you Aunt Liu."

It was very quiet at the dinner table. Except for Lan Xingyue who was mumbling in her heart about which one was more delicious, no one else spoke.

When they were halfway through their meal, Lanling hurried back.

The family didn't plan dinner for him tonight, so we didn't wait for him to come home for dinner.

He said he wanted to work overtime to study a piece of land, but when he was halfway there he heard that Xiao Xin was coming, so he turned around and went home.

"Dad... Uncle Lan, hello."

Xiao Xin was about to blurt out the word "dad", but under the pressing gazes of Lan Xingyu and others, she could only swallow the words reluctantly.

【I'm furious! 】

Hearing Xiao Xin's inner thoughts, Lan Xingyue, who was drinking soup, instantly perked up.

She cast a mind-reading spell on Xiao Xin as she just stepped into the house, but Xiao Xin remained silent.

【After waiting for so long, I finally got it. 】

Lan family members: What has Yueyue been waiting for? And the sentence just now doesn't seem to be what Yueyue really thinks?

Just as Lan Xingyue pricked up her ears to eat the melon, two unfamiliar voices rang in the ears of the three members of the Lan family and Liu Cheng.

----

[“Damn Lan Xingyu, isn’t he a short-lived ghost? But why hasn’t he died yet?”

(The Lan family members: Is this what Xiao Xin is thinking? Why can we hear it too?)

"System, come out."

"Host, what do you want?

"Do you have any treasure, the kind that can control people's minds?"

(The Lan family members were shocked: Who is that other voice? What does Xiao Xin want to do?)

"I am an omnipotent system. Naturally, I have everything here."

"Then you have to control all these people from the Lan family."

(The Lan family members clenched their fists nervously, with uneasiness in their eyes.)

"I can't do it. I don't have the energy."

"How come you are out of energy? I just got several decades of life points to convert into energy for you last night. How come you used it up so quickly?"

(Lan Family members: Health points? Energy? What is that?)

"Humph, you have only managed to obtain such a small amount of energy, and you still have the nerve to make so many demands? Host, you are really asking too much. Do you know that controlling people's minds is a high-level spell? It requires a lot of energy to evolve?"

"System, stop talking nonsense. Just tell me how much life points you need to convert into energy to control a person? I will find a way to get it back for you."

"Wouldn't it be better if you said this earlier? Host, listen carefully. To control a person, you need to convert a hundred years of life value into energy to evolve the spell."

[Haha, useless Tongzi, a low-level spell, I can just wave my hand, but it can't even cast it, it's so useless.]

(It turns out to be a useless Tongzi whom Yueyue despises! The Lan family members instantly felt relieved.)

"What did you say? A hundred years of life value? It takes a hundred years of life value to control a person's mind. Why don't you go and rob him?"

"Humph, if you can't get any health points, stop talking nonsense. Do you think it's easy to control people's hearts?"

"You know, that's a very difficult high-level talisman to carve. It requires a lot of energy and is very easy to fail. Isn't it normal to require more energy?"

[Tsk tsk, this useless system has a lot of problems? Maybe I don't even need to do anything, Xiao Xin's life will be wiped out by the system.]

(The Lan family: This is really great news.)

"Yes, it is normal, but a person can only live for a hundred years at most. To control five people, you need five hundred years of life to convert energy. Even if I let you drain the life of seven or eight people, it may not be enough."

(Lan Family: Drain seven or eight people? What does that mean?)

"Host, you'd better stop talking nonsense. Finish your meal quickly and go find someone to extract your health points. Otherwise, sizzle..."

[Haha, this is so funny. Xiao Xin was stuffed with a blood-sucking worm by the heavens. She has become a tool.]

(Lan family: Although I don’t understand, but Yueyue is smiling, that should be a good thing.)

----

There was a sound of electricity in Xiao Xin's head, and she shut up instantly.

The conversations in other people's ears also stopped.

The Lan family and Liu Cheng couldn't understand why they could hear Xiao Xin's thoughts. It was really strange.

There seemed to be someone talking in Xiao Xin's mind. They were talking about controlling people's minds and draining their health. It was really scary.
