Upon hearing this, Min Moyou nodded and gestured for Tong to continue.

A hint of surprise flashed in Tong's eyes—she didn't understand the world of the wealthy, nor did she know how those powerful families divided themselves into different classes and social classes.

However, the fact that Min Moyou, as a young master from a prominent family, could come into contact with the Dragon's Blood and Dragon's Curse indicates that his family at least had some involvement in these matters—which also reflects that Min Moyou's family was a relatively powerful one.

"Then you must know about the Dragon Realm, right?"

"You're not a dragon's offspring, so you don't know, but actually, the entire Zhongpu District is a dragon's domain. We've passed by several of the places we visited tonight!"

"The leakage of the Dragon Domain's power will trigger some supernatural phenomena, such as demons and monsters."

"Let me tell you, I just walked around this room and I found..."

"That's right! This is a haunted house! Unfortunately, it just so happens to have been affected by the Dragon Domain!"

Tong made up a story with an air of seriousness, even trying to create an ominous atmosphere with a tense tone.

Seeing a hint of contemplation flash in Min Moyou's eyes, Tong knew—the great undertaking was about to succeed!

However, Min Moyou's thoughts were not intimidated by Tong, but rather because, as a fellow dragon heir, he did not perceive any danger—Min Moyou then realized what was happening.

Oh~

So that's what you were trying to do to me?

Min Moyou decided not to expose her, after all—a skilled hunter always appears as the prey...

Seeing this, Tong wouldn't give Minmoyou a chance to think.

She quickly interrupted Min Moyou's thoughts—what if he noticed something was wrong?

"Really! I can't even imagine! What kind of tragedy would happen if I just dropped you off at your room and left tonight!"

"Although we've only spent one night together, I've truly come to regard you as a very close friend. How can I bear to watch you suffer at the hands of those demons and monsters?"

Tong lowered her head to hide the smirk in her eyes, clasped her hands over her chest, and spoke with a sorrowful voice, as if she were grieving for Min Moyou, who was about to be in trouble.

Min Moyou remained calm and composed, as if Mount Tai had collapsed before her, but Tong panicked—say something! We're running out of things to say!

Tong then switched to a tone of exasperation, saying to Min Moyou:

"Look at you...!"

"Why would a young master from a prestigious family, knowing full well how dangerous this world is, come to Zhongpu alone?"

"Don't you rich people value your lives? How could you be so careless! You didn't even bring a guard, it's too dangerous!"

"Tell me, what should we do now that we're in danger?"

"Where else can you conjure up a guard?! This is really frustrating!"

(The six members of the Min Clan's assassins lurking in the shadows: Are you looking for us?)

After saying this, Tong secretly glanced at Min Moyou, praying in her heart—No way, right? He definitely can't conjure up a guard on the spot, can he? Even if he could, he couldn't conjure up the Dragon's Blood, could he? It absolutely can't be him!

To everyone's surprise, Min Moyou seemed to have escaped the trap she had set, and unexpectedly said:

"A haunted house? Influenced by the Dragon Domain?"

"Then I'll just stay in this room, won't I?"

"Change rooms."

Actually, Min Moyou wanted to tease Tong a little more—good heavens! Who knew teasing such a cute little girl would be so much fun!?

This feeling of having an intellectual advantage is really addictive.

"Uh... this... you... it's not as simple as you think!?"

Tong panicked for a moment, but quickly regained her composure and believed that she had not been found out.

Damn it, why is he so lucid?!

"You...you are not Long Yin, you can't see or hear! Do you know that they've been haunting you ever since you stepped into this room!"

"How could you think of things so simply?! Do you know how worried I was about you? You......."

"Besides, you went through so much trouble to snatch this 'Dragon King Suite,' are you really willing to just give it up like this?!"

After countless hardships?

Does this refer to Min Moyou going through all sorts of trouble to bribe people and flirt with the receptionist?

Tong's confidence in using this scam against Min Moyou stems from two main reasons:

Firstly, Tong didn't sense any power related to the Dragon's Blood or Dragon's Curse from Min Moyou. At most, Min Moyou had a few ornaments with decorations that looked like dragon jade. Moreover, there was no one else around Min Moyou who understood the Dragon Domain and the Dragon's Blood. Wasn't this a golden opportunity for her, a professional, to shine?

Another point is that the official Dragon Suppression Bureau has no explicit rule prohibiting Dragon Heirs from disclosing this information to ordinary people—this rule is a tacit agreement within the Dragon Heir realm to avoid unnecessary trouble. Besides, Min Moyou already knew some things about this.

Moreover, if Min Moyou ever discovers the truth, she can simply tell him that she only wanted to tell him a ghost story to lighten the mood, and that he took it seriously.

Besides, it's not illegal, and we have a way out, so what's there to be afraid of!

......

"I think you're not worried about me, but rather reluctant to part with my commission, right?"

Min Moyou spoke calmly, still seemingly unconcerned about the matter.

No?

Tong never expected Min Moyou's thought process to be so unique.

Hmm...something feels a bit off...

If you were to say he was fooled by us, he would be too calm.

If we say he wasn't fooled by us... then it seems like he actually believed us.

Or did he misunderstand? Does he just think we care about him because we're greedy?

It's alright, it was a lucky accident.

As if her hidden thoughts had been exposed, Tong adopted a shy and hesitant posture and said:

"Oh dear... although there might be a slight influence from economic factors~"

"Alright, then tell me how to solve this."

Min Moyou waved his hand and took the initiative to ask questions to advance the plot.

Do you know why I'm a top agent?

"That's because—actually, I am a dragon's offspring! And a very powerful one at that!"

"I can always help my clients solve problems that ordinary people can't solve, which is why I became a top agent."

Tong seemed to want to introduce how amazing she was, but was immediately interrupted by Min Moyou.

"Then why don't you stay and keep watch tonight?"

"I remember you saying that you could also work as a bodyguard, right?"

Min Moyou turned her head back, no longer looking at Tong, and her tone left no room for doubt as she concluded the matter.

Tong was dumbfounded.

No?

Is this it?

etc--

The guard he's talking about isn't the kind who stands by his bedside, watching over him all night without sleeping or resting, always on high alert, is it?

No way! We're here to sit back and collect our salary, how can we add more burden to ourselves?!

We need to make him so grateful that he'll politely beg us to stay and protect him!

At this thought, Tong suddenly blushed, lowered her head, remained silent for a moment, and then hesitantly spoke:

"But...but...I'm still a young woman who's never even been in a relationship..."

"And yet you're so rich, and I'm quite famous as your agent. Tell me, what if I spent the night with you in a hotel room tonight, and rumors start spreading the next day that you're keeping me as a mistress..."

"You know, as an agent, my reputation has a huge impact, and it determines whether I can get a commission... No one would want to entrust something they value to someone with a bad reputation, right...?"

"I can't ruin my future just to help you for one night..."

"And if such rumors spread, what will my family and friends think of me...? This will cause a lot of trouble in my life..."

Damn it! Why isn't he reacting yet?!

Say anything, anything to keep me here, or just compliment me, anything will do.

I'm easy to please!

You think I'd stay if you just begged me a little?

Is he really that fearless?

Tong internally complained, feeling that she should use her "grocery shopping bargaining technique".

"I...I really want to help you...but...but I don't know what to do..."

"Maybe...maybe I should just leave!"

Pretend to stand up.

But to her surprise, Min Moyou was faster than her, giving her no chance to stand up.

He pulled out a handful of coins from the inner pocket of his suit jacket, close to his chest; not many, just a few thousand yuan.

Anyway, Tong hasn't seen much of the world, so she's easy to fool. A few thousand will keep her happy for a long time.

"Snapped."

Min Moyou slapped the stack of nine-square coins onto Tong Rourou's thigh.

Will it still have an impact?

"Huh? Uh... no... it won't affect anything."

Only magic can counter magic—for example, Min Moyou is currently using his most classic "money-scattering technique".

Min Moyou took out another stack of nine-square coins of roughly the same thickness and stacked them on top of the previous stack—Min Moyou was playing Jenga on Tong's lap.

"Snapped."

"What about your future?"

"No...no...I don't want my future anymore."

"Snapped."

Are you still troubled?

"No...it doesn't bother me anymore."

"Snapped."

"Do you know what to do?"

"Okay, okay, okay... I know!"

"Snapped."

"Are you still leaving?"

"I'm not leaving! Don't worry, boss! I'll be guarding this place for you! No matter what demons or monsters they are, they certainly won't dare to come near! Even if some petty scoundrels try to harm you, young master, with me here, I'll definitely defeat them and send them utterly humiliated!"

"Don't worry, we'll take good care of you! We guarantee you'll have a peaceful night's sleep and wake up refreshed!"

Tong picked up the banknotes on her lap—there must be twenty or thirty thousand here, right?

Haha~ I really want to laugh out loud!

Although the process was a bit tortuous, the result was good!

"Don't be too happy too early."

Tong had just suppressed the urge to jump up and celebrate when Min Moyou poured cold water on her—but who cares? The money's already in hand!

"Unless something unusual happens, you'd better take good care of yourself and conserve your energy."

"Don't wait until danger comes and you're not in good condition to handle it. The Min family's money isn't used to support useless people."

"Yes, Master!"

Good heavens! He even came up with excuses for me to slack off...!

Someone as foolish as him must have been sent away because he wasn't valued by his family.

How pitiful...

Heaven knows how many roundabout ways Min Moyou had to go through in her words to let her rest properly.

That's what a domineering CEO is like: using the coldest words to express the warmest feelings.
