"Daoist Ye…?"
Upon seeing that Ye Hua was just merely staring at her face and not responding to her, Ling Rui'er couldn't help but wrinkled her brows.
In actuality, Ling Rui'er was completely uninterested in Ye Hua.
After all, even though Ye Hua belonged to a small cultivation family, his cultivation level was still the same level as her.
It has to be mentioned, she was a loose cultivator who did not possess any background to back her up.
Meanwhile, before Ye Hua was sent over to work as an alchemist in the store, he was someone who was able to enjoy the resources that his cultivation family provided for him.
And yet, his cultivation was still the same level as her.
In Ling Rui'er's eyes, what did this mean?
This meant that Ye Hua's aptitude was definitely very bad.
And if she had to guess, she would guess that Ye Hua most likely possessed a lower-quality spiritual root.
In her eyes, the only good point that Ye Hua possessed was his capability of being able to concoct pills.
Albeit, in her eyes, Ye Hua's pill concocting technique was pretty bad.
After all, the qi congregation pills that Ye Hua concocted were all lower-quality pills, not a single one of them was middle-quality.
For a cultivator such as Ye Hua, it was evident that he didn't have a bright future at all.
Unless Ye Hua is able to obtain the Azure Cloud Sect's admittance jade, he will just be but a passerby in this life of mine.
Ye Hua is definitely not my ideal pick as a dao companion.
However, Ling Rui'er didn't show any of her thoughts on her expression.
After all, Ye Hua was still somewhat useful to her.
No matter how bad the pills that Ye Hua concocted were, at the end of the day, they were still pills.
Pills that could be used to raise her cultivation level.
20 lower-quality qi congregation pills were worth at least a lower-quality spiritual stone.
And it has to be known that her monthly pay from working as a store assistant was merely 3 lower-quality spiritual stones.
Therefore, although Ye Hua's action of ignoring her words and staringly blankly at her made her a little upset, she didn't reprimand him.
Instead, with a smile on her face, she woke up Ye Hua from being lost in his thoughts.
...
Meanwhile, the moment Ye Hua came back to his senses.
The way he looked at Ling Rui'er changed completely.
Before, with despise in his eyes, he looked at Ling Rui'er as if she was a bitch.
But now, he felt as if he was looking at a pile of treasure.
Ye Hua hates being a simp.
After all, in his past life, in his 20+ years of living, he could pretty much be considered a simp too…
In his past life… he had his own 'goddess' too…
Of course, Ye Hua only realized how much of a simp he was after transmigrating over to this world.
When he transmigrated over to this world and looked back at his previous life's memories, he felt he could die from embarrassment.
However, what Ye Hua hated more than simps were green tea bitches like this Ling Rui'er.
Green tea bitches like Ling Rui'er, they only knew how to demand for things, but would never reciprocate.
However, with the Simp's Reciprocate System awakened…
Ye Hua didn't mind how much of a green tea bitch this Ling Rui'er was anymore.
What? Giving gifts to a woman means that I am a simp?!
No!
A person is only considered a simp if he isn't able to obtain anything even after giving gifts!
But if I were able to obtain reciprocal gifts by giving gifts to a woman, this counts as an act of investment!
That's right!
It doesn't count as simping!
It counts as investment!
With this system, the huge problem of meeting my weekly quota of concocted pills has been solved!
Now… to deal with this Ling Rui'er…
With a smile on his face, Ye Hua looked at Ling Rui'er and said affectionately.
"Fairy Rui'er, do not undervalue yourself like this. For you to be able to reach qi refining third layer as a loose cultivator, it shows that your aptitude is not ordinary at all."
"In the future, you will definitely be able to reach great heights that I wouldn't even dare to wish to achieve."
"During these few days of closed-door cultivation, I managed to concoct a new batch of pills."
"Here, Fairy Rui'er, these pills are for you."
"I hope that these pills will be of some help to your cultivation."
While speaking to Ling Rui'er, Ye Hua took the pouch that was hanging on his waist, then took out a bottle of pills from the pouch and handed the bottle over to Ling Rui'er.
Within the bottle, there were 10 qi congregation pills in it.
Of course, the pouch was just a normal pouch.
Something extravagant like a spatial pouch or spatial ring weren't things that Ye Hua could afford to buy.
Upon hearing Ye Hua's words, Ling Rui'er shyly shook her hand and said in a low voice.
"Daoist Ye, there is no need to give me these pills…"
"I'm sure that you worked really hard to concoct these pills, I would feel bad if I were to enjoy the result of your hard work without having done anything for you…"
"Furthermore, you have a quota to reach, right?"
"It would be bad if you end up not being able to reach your quota because of me…"
After Ye Hua listened to what Ling Rui'er said, Ye Hua couldn't help but sneer at her in his mind.
This bitch, who is she trying to fool?
Does she not know that I can see that the corners of her mouth are perking up into a smile?
If you really feel bad about taking my pills, you should be more resolute in rejecting my gift to you!
This bitch, I understand what she's trying to do…
She's practically trying to get me to beg her to accept my gifts to her!
All so for the sake of keeping up her appearance, to make it seems that she had no choice but to accept my gifts!
This green tea bitch, she's worse than the green tea bitch from my previous life…
However, right now, Ye Hua precisely needed a green tea bitch like Ling Rui'er.
Without Ling Rui'er, he wouldn't be able to start using his system right away.
Thus, with a smile on his face, Ye Hua said affectionately.
"Fairy Ling, you can put your mind at ease!"
"You may not know about this, but my success rate of concocting pills is much higher than a typical alchemist."
"Therefore, every time when I concoct pills, there would be some extra left over."
"My quota won't be hindered just because I gave you some pills, so you don't have to worry at all!"
Upon hearing up to here, Ling Rui'er finally decided to accept Ye Hua's gift.
With a huge smile on her face, she took over the bottle of pills from Ye Hua's hand.
And right after, with a shy look on her face, Ling Rui'er lowered her head and said in a shy and soft voice.
"Thank you, Daoist Ye…"
"You are such a nice person…"
Upon hearing that, the corner of Ye Hua's mouth couldn't help but twitched as he recalled a bad memory from his past life…
Nice person…?
What? Is your next line going to be 'I hope we can be good friends forever'?
Wait… I have two bottles of pills, should I just give her the other bottle too?
If I remember correctly, her reciprocal rate is 10 times, right?
So, if I were to give her 20 pills, I would be able to receive back 200 pills!
And with the 200 pills, when next week arrives and the system's effect is able to work again…
By giving her 200 pills, I would be able to receive back 2000 pills!
And as everything snowballs, I could practically open my own store to sell pills!
With just this Ling Rui'er alone, and with enough time, the wealth that I could accumulate is immeasurable!
However, right when Ye Hua was about to take out the other bottle of pills from his pouch…
The system's voice rang out in his mind.
"Host is only allowed to give at most 10 pills every time."
"Any number of pills that exceed over 10 won't be counted in the reciprocal gifts."
Before Ye Hua's dream of accumulating immeasurable wealth even started…
His dream had already ended.
Sigh… As expected, I knew things wouldn't be this easy.
Looking at Ling Rui'er who was still acting shy, Ye Hua let out a sigh in his heart.
Then said affectionately, "Fairy Ling, I hope that these pills will be of help to your cultivation."
Ling Rui'er raised her head, and while still with a shy look on her face, she said solemnly.
"I really don't know what else to say but thank you."
"Daoist Ye, I promise you, when I finally manage to break through to the next realm of cultivation, I will definitely repay you back!"
While speaking, Ling Rui'er took a glance at the bottle of pills that she was holding in her right hand.
And when she saw that there were actually 10 pills in the bottle, she couldn't help but become even happier.
Wait… there's actually 10 pills in the bottle?
What a pleasant surprise!
I thought that it would be like usual and there would only be 5 pills in the bottle!
Hmm, as his reward, I will try to spend more time chatting with him today!
I'm sure he is going to be thrilled later when he finds out that I am willing to spend more time chatting with him today than usual!
Meanwhile, with a smile on his face, Ye Hua nodded his head in response to what Ling Rui'er said.
However, in his heart, he didn't take anything that she said seriously at all.
Counting this lifetime, Ye Hua has practically lived for two lifetimes, and never has he ever seen a green tea bitch who would give any reciprocation back to a simp.
However, that wasn't important.
What was important was that…
Not long after Ling Rui'er took the bottle of pills over from him…
The system's pleasant voice rang out in his mind.
