Chapter 165: Ambitious Girls

Omnipotent Cultivation Supreme

Yun Xuan paused for a moment. Knocking on the door early in the morning? Didn't nurses usually come at eight o'clock? It was only a little past six right now.

"Someone is here, I... I'll go wash my face." The knocking startled Qin Zhihua, who quickly broke free from Yun Xuan's grasp, straightened her pajamas, and hurried into the bathroom.

Yun Xuan walked up to the door and opened it.

Outside the door.

"Hello, I am Misa Sanjo," the woman said.

She was wearing a grey professional suit, with standard long, straight black hair. Her cold and aloof face carried a trace of seriousness, resembling a snow lotus flower on an icy mountain.

"Ding-dong, comprehensive evaluation: 8-point beautiful girl discovered!"

"Please come in," Yun Xuan said, pausing for a second.

The reason Yun Xuan was stunned wasn't because Misa Sanjo was exceptionally pretty, but because she bore a striking resemblance to Yukino Yukinoshita! If not for the professional suit, Yun Xuan would have genuinely mistaken her for Yukino Yukinoshita.

"I accepted Boss Yun Xuan's invitation and came here for the interview. Do you have any questions for me?" Misa Sanjo asked, taking a seat on a chair.

"Well, I will only ask you three questions." Yun Xuan sat on the hospital bed and smiled faintly. Having such a cool beauty by his side would certainly serve as a refreshing antidote to the summer heat.

Misa Sanjo remained silent, waiting quietly for Yun Xuan to pose his questions.

"I currently own four ventures: Xuanxue Restaurant, Autumn Reflection Tower, Xuanxun House, and a plantation. If I hand them over to you, what would you do?" Yun Xuan thought for a moment before asking.

"First of all, Xuanxun House should be intended for your personal use, so it shouldn't be counted as a commercial asset. However, in my view, that is a complete waste of Xuanxun House's commercial value. Secondly, Xuanxue Restaurant and Autumn Reflection Tower do not complement each other. I suggest turning Autumn Reflection Tower into a branch of Xuanxue Restaurant, and assigning master chef Dongfang Aoxue to Autumn Reflection Tower. Lastly, the plantation has major issues. It is located too far away, but since construction has already begun, we can build a summer resort there, as the conditions permit it," Misa Sanjo answered simply.

"Very good. Second question, what do you think of Xuanxue Restaurant and Autumn Reflection Tower?" Yun Xuan was quite satisfied with Misa Sanjo's reply.

"The culinary aspect is flawless, but the management has major flaws. Autumn Reflection Tower has a fixed clientele, while Xuanxue Restaurant's reservation model is far too rigid. The booking window is open for less than 15 minutes a day. I ask you, who has the time to stare at a webpage for 15 minutes every single day? We must break this operational model and merge Autumn Reflection Tower and Xuanxue Restaurant," Misa Sanjo said earnestly.

"The final question, do you have any questions for me?" Yun Xuan looked at Misa Sanjo with growing interest.

"You are extremely fortunate to possess recipes, methods, and a team behind you. I believe you will rise to the upper echelons. So, may I ask what your ultimate goal is?" Misa Sanjo asked after a brief silence.

"My goal?" Yun Xuan hadn't expected Misa Sanjo to ask such a question, but after a brief thought, he understood.

"I have no goal. I only want to become the wealthiest person. If there are opponents ahead, I will defeat them, no matter what methods it takes. As long as it is beneficial to me, I will do it," Yun Xuan said with a smile.

"A monthly salary of twenty thousand," Misa Sanjo said softly.

"Deal." Yun Xuan smiled; this Misa Sanjo was truly extraordinary.

...

Misa Sanjo left the hospital and, upon reaching the ground floor, looked back at Yun Xuan's hospital room.

"No goals? That's fine too," Misa Sanjo muttered, a fighting spirit burning in her eyes.

She wanted to control more, to become someone at the top. That's right, she didn't share the thoughts of ordinary girls. Ever since she could remember, she had only one goal: to become a person of high status!

Through Yun Xuan, she could gain many things, and Yun Xuan's lack of a specific goal was precisely what she wanted.

Becoming Yun Xuan's secretary was only the first step. Through him, she could rapidly reach the upper echelons of society.

It wasn't difficult to deduce that Yun Xuan possessed recipes. Furthermore, since the reservation webpage for Xuanxue Restaurant had never malfunctioned, coupled with the existence of Ayame Himekawa, it wasn't hard to deduce that Yun Xuan had a dedicated team supporting him.

Finally, there was the matter concerning the Qin family. Yun Xuan's shadow lingered over that affair as well. With a little analysis, Misa Sanjo had already uncovered the connection between the Qin family and Yun Xuan.

Inside the hospital room.

"That Misa Sanjo is truly interesting. Senior Sister Zhihua, she might be the first ambitious girl I've ever met," Yun Xuan said as he watched Qin Zhihua walk out of the bathroom.

"I'm going out to buy breakfast. What do you want to eat?" Qin Zhihua asked softly, keeping her distance from Yun Xuan, terrified that he might reach out his claws to tease her again.

"Anything is fine." Yun Xuan's mouth twitched as he looked at Qin Zhihua, who looked like a frightened little rabbit.

Qin Zhihua left the room, and Yun Xuan took out his phone to reply to messages on the Northern-chan official account. There was less than a week left until the premiere of the Northern-chan feature film.

"The Hollows have gone quiet, and I haven't found the remaining three people either. Anime characters are always trouble; one day, they're going to cause an even bigger mess." Yun Xuan put down his phone and looked out the window.

...

Europe, in a certain forest.

"Level 10 at last! Now I can summon inscriptions and acquire the abilities of other heroes. This is wonderful, I am definitely going to become the strongest hero!" The man in the red robe squatted down excitedly and let a drop of fresh blood fall onto the magic circle.

The magic circle flared brightly, and a green badge appeared. The man in the red robe opened his mouth and tossed the badge inside.

"A Tier 2 inscription. It looks like I'll need to work harder to accumulate more," the man in the red robe said with a trace of disappointment as he continued to draw the magic array.

...

Island nation, on a deserted island.

"Lord Tohru, your skin is so smooth," Kanna said softly.

"Kanna is the same, very cute," Tohru replied with a smile.

Kei Nagai sat at the entrance of the cave, keeping watch on the surroundings.

The cave had been carved out by Tohru. Deep inside was a small pool where Tohru and Kanna were bathing.

Kei Nagai had no desire whatsoever to sneak a peek, unless he was tired of living.

The powers of Tohru and Kanna far exceeded that of ordinary humans. A single sneeze from either of them could blow him away, so the idea of harboring any inappropriate thoughts toward these two monster-class beautiful girls was out of the question.

"Putting that aside, hiding here is not a long-term solution. Sooner or later, we will have to interact with humanity, and we'll need equipment to monitor the outside world," Kei Nagai pondered.

"Kei Nagai, what are you thinking about?" Tohru walked out, wearing a maid outfit that she had flown across the ocean to steal from a human city.

"I'm wondering if going on like this is sustainable. If we remain completely ignorant of the outside world, we'll eventually be discovered. Your powers are indeed formidable, but human technology is not to be underestimated," Kei Nagai said seriously.

"What do you propose? Let's hear it," Tohru said, sitting down. Through their days together, they had established a cooperative survival dynamic.

"First of all, we need money." Kei Nagai stood up, having thought of an extremely effective plan.
