BXBX NOVEL Chapter 3: Unexpected
Chapter 3: Unexpected
After releasing his hand, she looked at him from head to toe, and observed the muscles growing on his body.
No sooner had she seen him with his skinny figure then he suddenly looked like a man who had practiced weightlifting for years, she was naturally puzzled.
Even his chest looked huge where the polo shirt he was wearing looked tight.
Of course, she could also feel his cultivation.
Although he could have hidden it, he didn\'t.
"Is there something, Lady Charlotte?" asked Levi, speaking first.
He acted like nothing was wrong.
"First, just call me by my name, don\'t call me Lady," she replied.
Objecting to being called Lady by him with her age, this further showed that she really wanted to be seen as a young woman.
Levi felt like laughing but did not show it.
"Tell me, how did you change so quickly?" she asked afterwards.
She could not hide her curiosity. It appeared clearly on her face.
"Consider it luck after disaster. Isn\'t the world full of miracles now? I was just lucky to get that miracle," Levi replied with a soft laugh.
She wanted to be treated as a young girl, so he also spoke as if he was actually speaking to a young girl.
If he did not want to be polite or formal to her, it was too easy.
His life experience made him able to show any kind of attitude to anyone.
Hearing his reply, the woman rolled her eyes, looking surprised by how casually he spoke to her.
And she didn\'t seem to be planning on talking anymore.
Her hand pulled the car door open.
"Get in, we\'re going home now," she said, pointing to the other door of the car.
Since she didn\'t want to try to talk about it anymore, Levi was silent as well. He got into the car which was a bit cramped for his height.
Vrom!
Charlotte was really like a young girl with her wild nature.
She stepped on the gas pedal abruptly and hard directly.
It zoomed down the street at high speed and then turned left, making Levi knit his brows as it was not the direction of the woman\'s house which was next to his mother\'s house.
"Are you moving house?" he asked.
"Yes." The woman nodded with her gaze straight ahead.
"What about my house?"
When he asked about it, Charlotte gave him a serious look.
She said, "This is sad news. All your parents\' assets have been seized except for some cash that has been sent to me. Most of it has also been spent on your medical expenses. You know, in this era, the law has become too blunt for the upper class as everyone has become more powerful. Without power, it\'s hard to protect large assets, especially without anyone to guard them."
Levi, "..."
He wasn\'t sure how to react after hearing that.
In the cultivation world, grabbing each other\'s wealth was commonplace.
It was precisely because of that that he was unable to react as that barbaric culture began to enter the earth, and his own parents\' wealth was being victimized.
After all, their wealth was not small. They had a fortune of over a billion dollars, most of which was in the form of property located everywhere.
As he continued to think about that, he couldn\'t help but rest his head on his hand resting on the car window.
"By the way, how much money do my parents have left with you?" asked Levi.
He stopped thinking about the loss of his parents\' assets. It could all be reclaimed later.
For now he needed money to buy a few things, one of which was a weapon.
That way, he could start going on adventures to raise his cultivation stage.
To him, the System\'s existence only made the path easier.
Others might often be stalled because they couldn\'t strengthen their techniques, but it wouldn\'t be difficult for him.
Even he didn\'t need any techniques, he only needed to deepen the Seven Great Paths which actually contained various extraordinary techniques.
"Do you need money?" Charlotte asked back and smiled slightly.
After that, she suddenly picked up a bank card in the glove compartment of the car.
It was black with gold stripes that seemed to be completely made of gold.
"No one has more money than me in this city. If you want to shop, just use this card. The pin is 987654."
As she said that, she placed the card on Levi\'s thigh.
This was beyond his expectation that she would give him a bank card right away.
Although she was indeed his mother\'s close friend, they were not related at all.
Even if she had promised to take care of him, giving him money was a different matter.
The problem was that the money she gave him when she gave him the card was practically a huge amount.
He could buy a lot of things with it.
"Are you serious?" Levi took the card while asking her.
He looked into her blue eyes to find out if she had a specific purpose.
"Do I look like I\'m joking?" she replied with a pouty look on her lips.
After that, she stopped the car in front of a cell phone shop.
"Next time, don\'t look at me like that. Now, go buy a cell phone first," she added, pressing the button to activate the car\'s handbrake while her eyes were fixed in another direction.
There was something quite surprising to Levi here as he was still looking at her.
Vaguely, he felt that she seemed awkward.
How could she be awkward to him?
Perhaps this was normal for any young girl to be awkward in front of him due to being mesmerized by his appearance.
However, Charlotte was a woman of his mother\'s age whom she had been friends with since childhood.
She had always looked up to him as a child, so there was no chance of her being awkward in front of him.
\'I hope her mentality doesn\'t turn into a young girl\'s mentality too,\' Levi thought.
If somehow her mentality became that of a young girl, even if she was a highly intelligent woman, mastered medical science and had great wealth, the traits of a young girl would always be present.
Levi then got out of the car, walking straight to the cell phone shop because he really needed a cell phone.
As he walked, Charlotte who was in the car watched him with furrowed brows but her eyes barely blinked.
Shua!
Suddenly beside her appeared a white cat with thick fur and a pair of wings.
It created smoke as it appeared.
"Miss, why is your heart pounding? You\'re not in love with this young man, are you?" The cat gave her a question.
She was apparently able to speak.
"However, Miss, he\'s not a bad choice? Although I\'m not sure how powerful he is, I can feel the infinite mystery of his body and soul."
The cat\'s words instantly made Charlotte\'s cheeks red and her eyes flicker.
"Shinta, what nonsense are you saying?" she said in a high tone, looking angry, making her breathing quicken.
However, the cat didn\'t seem afraid of her at all.
"Miss, I want it to be clear when you swallowed the Youth Pill. You said you wanted to be a young girl again to redo your romance-less teenage life into a life full of romance with a handsome and alluring young man. So far, you\'ve been so busy that you couldn\'t find a suitable young man, but fate brought one to you and you were clearly enamored with him. Weren\'t you very surprised when you saw him in the hospital garden, hahaha? Besides, you actually gave him your bank card right away when he wanted money. This proves you\'re happy with him. After all, who doesn\'t know how stingy you are."
Charlotte, "..."
