Zhang Jingyao had never tasted the taste of poverty.
Although her life experience was quite unfortunate, her family had always been very well off. After becoming famous, she didn't need to worry about money.
Her current works, when placed on online music platforms, had sales starting from tens of millions. The endorsement fees she received were easily tens of millions, and her income was among the top in the entertainment industry.
So basically, Zhang Jingyao could buy anything she wanted. Even if she suddenly wanted to buy a private jet on a whim, it wasn't very difficult. It was just a few more concerts and a few more endorsements.
But at this moment, here, she felt her "poverty" for the first time.
And Zuo Yi obviously wasn't talking nonsense. Such a magical mask was really difficult to describe in specific terms. It was like the stepmother's square cauldron displayed in the National Museum of Da Xia. It was completely priceless.
Not to mention the Thousand Faces ability, just the ability to retain eternal youth was enough to drive women crazy!
The famous star bit her lip and shook the mirror in her hand a little angrily. "I can't afford the mask. How much is this mirror? Name a price!"
The blow of the dimensional reduction just now was a bit too big. She tried hard to regain some dignity.
Of course, Zhang Jingyao also liked this mirror very much.
In the end …
In the end, Zuo Yi looked at her with a trace of pity. "You can't afford it either."
You can't afford it either!
You can't afford it!
Can't afford it!
Can't afford it!
Can afford it!
Can't!
Zhang Jingyao could no longer maintain her goddess image and lost her composure. "Is this also a strange item?"
The so-called strange items referred to the items brought back from the Wild World by Extraordinaires to the Blue Star World. They had some special effects or abilities and were not assimilated or destroyed by the Bluestar law.
They were also called Wild Strange Items.
The number of Wild Strange Items was very small. They were basically controlled by the country and the big families. There were very few that flowed into private hands. The Inner World's research on Wild Strange Items had been over 20 years!
Zuo Yi also just learned about Wild Strange Items not long ago. In the entire Bluestar, he was probably the only one who really knew the essence of Strange Items — law items.
Since Zhang Jingyao could say Strange Items, she must be a member of the Inner World. Maybe she also had a network login device.
"More or less."
Zuo Yi gave a vague answer to Zhang Jingyao's question.
To prove this point, he said to the mirror, "Mirror, mirror, tell me, who is the most handsome man in the universe?"
Zuo Yi's face appeared in the mirror.
Zhang Jingyao, who was holding the magic mirror, was speechless.
Zuo Yi chuckled.
Although Zuo Yi had never made a wish in front of the mirror, the Mirror Spirit hidden inside was almost destroyed by him. Probably because the Mirror Spirit's desire to survive was too strong, it learned the skill of kneeling and licking without a teacher.
However, even though this Mirror Spirit's wishing technique was a huge trap, it had experienced more than two epochs and passed through the hands of countless people. Thus, it had extremely rich experience and countless secrets.
Therefore, when he was free, Zuo Yi would take out the magic mirror and have a "friendly" conversation with the mirror spirit.
After proving the magic mirror's extraordinariness, Zuo Yi extended his hand to Zhang Jingyao.
Zhang Jingyao reluctantly returned it to Zuo Yi.
Zuo Yi put the mirror back into his spatial ring.
In fact, he was doing it for her sake. The true use of this magic mirror was more like a curse. If one didn't have the ability to control it, the outcome would be tragic.
Seeing Zuo Yi magically make the magic mirror disappear, Zhang Jingyao suppressed her curiosity and didn't ask.
She had just been beaten black and blue. She didn't want to endure it again!
"Oh, right."
Zuo Yi said to Zhang Jingyao, "Before Director Lu comes back, you can wear the Thousand Face Mask. The duration of its transformation is determined by the strength of your spiritual power. The stronger your spiritual power, the longer it can last."
"So, you can test how long you can last. That way, you won't be exposed when you go out in the future."
Zhang Jingyao nodded and said politely, "Thank you."
Although Zuo Yi had attacked her time and time again, she still appreciated his kindness.
Zhang Jingyao wasn't an unruly and willful girl.
When she thought about how she could use the special ability of the Thousand Face Mask to go out and have fun like an ordinary person, her mood became cheerful.
"Don't rush …"
Zuo Yi waved his hand and took out a bracelet that he had already prepared. He handed it to her and said, "Wear this."
"What is this?"
Zhang Jingyao took it and asked, "Another strange item?"
She was already numb.
Zuo Yi explained, "It can protect you. Also, if you are in danger, just say my name three times in your heart and I will be able to sense it. I will use this bracelet to locate you and save you."
The bracelet was a very ordinary silver bracelet. A pair bought from an accessory store would cost less than 300 yuan. However, after mixing in special materials and engraving runes, its value and function were completely different.
"So, you have to wear it all the time. Don't take it off even when you shower."
Zhang Jingyao nodded. She put the bracelet on her left hand and asked, "Is this also for me?"
"Yes."
Zuo Yi said expressionlessly, "The mask and bracelet are both for you. Return them to me when the time comes. Also …"
"You have to pay the rental fee."
Zhang Jingyao took a deep breath and tried her best to smile. "How much is the rental fee?"
"Use your concert tickets next month to deduct it."
Zuo Yi waved his hand generously and said, "I'll give you ten tickets. The seats have to be good."
He was a little worried that Wang Jiaojiao wouldn't be able to buy the tickets. If that happened, the Bao 'er would be very disappointed.
In fact, since Zhang Jingyao was already living in his house, Zuo Yi could totally let her hold a "personal concert" for the Bao 'er.
However, his belief in virtue determined that under normal circumstances, he wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for others or make things difficult for others.
Zhang Jingyao maintained her goddess-like smile and said, "Okay."
Zuo Yi's request was very low. Ten tickets were nothing to her. However, even though she was the one who got the most out of it, she still felt her heart was stifled.
After dealing with Zhang Jingyao, Zuo Yi said to Zhang Xiufen who was already in a state of silence, "Miss Zhang, can you rest assured now? I can guarantee Miss Zhang Jingyao's safety, but I don't have the responsibility to protect you. Your existence will only bring her unnecessary trouble … "
The truth was often not pleasant to hear.
"I understand!"
Zhang Xiufen interrupted him and said, "I'll go back to the capital now. I'll leave Jingyao to you!"
"Auntie!"
Zhang Jingyao's eyes suddenly turned red.
Zhang Xiufen held her hand and said, "Yaoyao, I believe that Mr. Zuo has the ability to protect you. I'm very relieved."
Zhang Xiufen's personality wasn't very good, but she was really good to her niece Zhang Jingyao and loved her from the bottom of her heart.
She then said to Zuo Yi, "Mr. Zuo, I'm really sorry for what happened just now. I apologize to you."
With that, she bowed deeply to Zuo Yi.
Zuo Yi thought for a moment, then took out an identical silver bracelet and handed it to her, "This bracelet has the same function. I'll lend it to you. If you're in danger, you can ask me for help."
Since Zhang Xiufen had changed her attitude, Zuo Yi might as well complete the good deed and help the Buddha to the West.
After all, she was also Lu Han's sister-in-law.
Zhang Xiufen was very surprised, but she didn't refuse and said sincerely, "Thank you!"
Zuo Yi nodded slightly, "Then I'll send you off now."
He still had to go back to pick up the Bao'er.
"Okay."
Zhang Xiufen nodded. She touched Zhang Jingyao's face and said softly, "Take good care of yourself here. Don't be willful and throw a tantrum, okay?"
Zhang Jingyao couldn't help but cry. She hugged Zhang Xiufen and sobbed, "Auntie …"
Zhang Xiufen patted her back and smiled, "Good girl, don't cry. I'll wait for you in the capital!"
Zhang Jingyao nodded hard.
After a reluctant farewell, Zhang Xiufen dragged her suitcase and followed Zuo Yi back to Hangzhou Airport.
She would take the earliest flight back to the capital.
After sending her off, Zuo Yi returned to Tenhiro Budokan.
Seeing him come back, Shang Yulin asked with concern, "Is the registration procedure done?"
"It's done."
Zuo Yi said, "The tuition alone is 98,000 yuan, not including other expenses. It's more expensive than going to college!"
When he was in college, the tuition fee for a year was only about 10,000 yuan.
Shang Yulin was amused, "Do you still need this money?"
Zuo Yi shook his head, touched the little girl's head and asked, "Baby, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
"By the way."
He said, "We just have a guest in our house. He will probably stay in our new house for a while."
The Bao'er asked curiously, "Who is it?"
Zuo Yi said with a smile, "You'll know when you get home."
Shang Yulin was surprised, "You're leaving the guest alone at home?"
"It sounds a bit too much."
Zuo Yi touched his chin and said, "Then let's go to the new house together and get to know this guest. We can have lunch at the new house."
"Great!"
The Bao'er clapped and welcomed, "Sister Yulin, I want to eat the pork rice you cook!"
Shang Yulin's eyes curved. "Sure."
