Chapter 442 Paragon Qin Xiaochuan
“Junior Brother, I’m really sorry. It just turned midnight right now.” Gu Mengyao took out the identity token and handed it back to Qin Chuan.
Looking at the identity token in his hand, Qin Chuan didn’t know what to say.
It was all that woman’s fault. If she hadn’t caused trouble, there would totally have been enough time.
He glanced at a corner of the hall. Lu Yiping was smiling wickedly at him.
Qin Chuan put away his identity token, looked at Gu Mengyao, and said, “Senior Sister, whether you have helped me or not, I still have to thank you.”
“This…” Gu Mengyao lowered her head slightly. She felt a little embarrassed that she had not helped him. “Junior Brother, when the Dao Technique Court opens in the morning, don’t queue up. Come directly to me.”
“Alright!” Qin Chuan nodded, turned around, and headed upstairs.
He didn’t like the noisy environment downstairs. In any case, he still had so much time on his hands, so he returned to the second level and waited for the Dao Technique Chamber to open before coming down.
After Qin Chuan left, Gu Mengyao returned to the corner of the hall.
Lu Yiping immediately said, “I can tell that you’ve taken a fancy to this Junior Brother Xiaoming.”
“I can’t be bothered with you.”
“Yo! You’re angry! Impressive!” Lu Yiping gloated.
Gu Mengyao said, “Junior Brother Xiaoming is a big client. His review will greatly affect my annual evaluation.
“If I don’t get to stay on this year, it’ll all be your fault.”
Lu Yiping laughed. “Your even bringing up the annual evaluation here. If it weren’t for those suitors trying their best to pull votes for you every year, you wouldn’t have lasted until
now.”
Gu Mengyao’s face instantly darkened.
Lu Yiping knew that once she got into the headspace of arguing, she would speak without thinking
“Aiyo! My Big Missy, I was wrong. I deserve to die. Don’t be angry!” Lu Yiping immediately apologized. Gu Mengyao said angrily, “I was able to keep the title of the most beautiful receptionist in the Dao Technique Chamber all because of my own efforts. The Luo Ding Sect is so big and has so many disciples. How much can those pursuers do?”
It was indeed as she said.
Although Gu Mengyao had an enviable appearance, she was diligent in her work and wasn’t aloof to others. Every day, she served every disciple who came to the Dao Technique Chamber with a sweet smile and professional spirit.
“Are you still angry with me?” asked Lu Yiping “I’ll let it go this time, but if there’s a next time, you can go figure it out yourself!”
This was the relationship between best friends. It was normal for them to quarrel a little and get back together in an instant.
On the way back to their residence, Lu Yiping never stopped talking.
“But seriously, Xiaoming looks pretty handsome. And he has so many contribution points. You really can consider him,” said Lu Yiping seriously.
As her best friend, she really hoped that Gu Mengyao could find her destined one.
The path of cultivation was long.
If she had a partner, her path of cultivation wouldn’t be so lonely.
Gu Mengyao said, “I’m really not interested. If you think he’s good, why don’t you consider him for yourself?”
“Me?” said Lu Yiping. “I already have someone I like.”
Gu Mengyao smiled.
Don’t I know you well enough!?
There were countless people she liked.
“Don’t laugh. I’m serious.” Lu Yiping stopped, her gaze exceptionally serious.
“Alright, alright!” Gu Mengyao also stopped. “Then tell me which senior or junior brother has caught your eye?”
“Don’t laugh when I tell you,” said Lu Yiping.
“Go ahead!” Gu Mengyao didn’t care who Lu Yiping liked!
“Qin Xiaochuan.”

“The paragon Qin Xiaochuan who caused a commotion a few days ago?” Gu Mengyao stared at Lu Yiping.
“Please! You like him without even knowing what he looks like?” asked Gu Mengyao.
“Am I someone who cares a lot about looks?” Lu Yiping raised her head 45 degrees and casually flipped her hair.
Gu Mengyao sneered. “Are you not?”
“Hmph! Anyway, I’m serious this time. Really, whether you believe it or not.” Lu Yiping flung her hair and strode forward.
Gu Mengyao sighed and quickly caught up. Then, she held Lu Yiping’s arm. “Yiping, speaking of this Qin Xiaochuan, I heard that he seems to be at the Dao Technique Chamber
too.”
“I heard about this too.
“I’ve already confirmed it with my seniors.
“The Sect Master rewarded him with free access to all the books in the Dao Technique Chamber.
“I reckon he’s at the highest level this time. I wonder if I’ll have a chance to see him, “said Lu Yiping, looking smitten.
“But his reputation isn’t good. I heard from my senior sisters that a few junior sisters were almost defiled by him.
“Yiping, I don’t object to your pursuit of love, but be careful not to regret it.”
Lu Yiping said, “You have to worry about that. I’m smart!”
“Alright! No matter what, I also wish you the best in finding your own love,” Gu Mengyao said sincerely. “Mm, let’s work hard together and strive to find our happiness this year. Haha!”
Just like that, the two of them giggled as they returned to their residence.
Dawn.
As usual, it was bustling outside the Dao Technique Chamber, with many disciples gathered.
Gu Mengyao arrived very early today, much earlier than usual.
As receptionists of the Dao Technique Chamber, they had special passageways.
They were also here as receptionists to earn contribution points.
If they performed well, they would be rewarded with additional contribution points.
Even though the receptionists were dressed glamorous, only they knew how difficult it was to receive so many people every day.
Only females were recruited to be receptionists at the Dao Technique Chamber. If they were outstanding in looks, that would be a bonus.
Gu Mengyao had outstanding looks and professional ability. She had kept the title of the most beautiful receptionist for more than ten years.
Obtaining this honor would give her a considerable amount of contribution points.
After changing into her uniform, Gu Mengyao went to her counter. First, she checked to see if the magical artifacts were working normally. Then, she tidied and cleaned the counter again.
At this moment, Qin Chuan walked down.
He saw Gu Mengyao from afar.
“You came quite early. You’re so pretty yet you’re still working so hard. This Immortal realm is indeed competitive.” Qin Chuan couldn’t help but sigh.
Gu Mengyao also noticed Qin Chuan.
This was a big client. If she served him well, she would do well in the annual evaluation this year. “Good morning, Senior Sister Gu!” greeted Qin Chuan.
“Good morning, Junior Brother Xiaoming!” Gu Mengyao smiled sweetly.
“Junior Brother Xiaoming, there are still a few minutes until work time. You have to wait a little while,” said Gu Mengyao.
“It’s fine.” Qin Chuan smiled. “Senior Sister Gu, do you come early every day?”
Qin Chuan placed his hand on the counter as though he was chatting.
Gu Mengyao didn’t think much of it either.
The way Qin Chuan looked at her was different from those suitors. It was a very normal gaze with no ulterior motives.
Qin Chuan felt that since he was waiting, he might as well have a chat.
Not to mention that the person opposite him was a beautiful young lady with a sweet voice.
Gu Mengyao said, “If it’s my work day, I usually arrive early.”
Qin Chuan said, “I didn’t expect Senior Sister to be so hard working despite being so pretty.”
Gu Mengyao sighed. “What’s the use of being pretty? In this world, strength is everything.
“I don’t have any background, and my talent isn’t outstanding either. I can only rely on myself to earn contribution points so that I can exchange for the cultivation resources I need.”
“Is the salary high here?” asked Qin Chuan.
Salary referred to contribution points.
Gu Mengyao said, “Not too bad. After all, human traffic here is so high. If the contribution points are not high, very few people will come here to work.
“Apart from a fixed salary, there’s an evaluation every quarter. If one’s evaluation score is high, you can get some contribution points.
“Then, the most beautiful receptionist will be selected every year. If selected, a considerable amount of contribution points will be rewarded.”
Qin Chuan said, “Then this most beautiful receptionist will be none other than Senior Sister.
“Senior Sister, after looking around, I think you’re the most beautiful.
“Besides, you come so early every day. If you fail to get the title, then I have reason to suspect that there must be some inside work behind this evaluation.”
Gu Mengyao was amused. “Junior Brother, you have a sweet tongue.
“Looks like you often use this tone to coax those pretty junior sisters.”
Qin Chuan said in all seriousness, “Senior Sister, I’m so honest. How can you say that I’m lying!”
“Junior Brother, haven’t you heard of a saying? A man’s mouth is deceiving,” said Gu Mengyao.
“But I’m still a boy!” Qin Chuan’s face was full of sincerity, and it was impossible to tell that he was lying.
Gu Mengyao smiled but said nothing.
The two of them were silent for a while.
Gu Mengyao looked at the time and stole a glance at Qin Chuan’s profile.
After hesitating for a moment, she said, “Right! I want to ask you for a favor.”
