I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 343 - Imperial Commissioner

Chapter 343: Imperial Commissioner

In the morning, Ling Ping’an was woken up by a phone call.

He picked up his phone and looked at it. It was only past seven o’clock.

He pouted and looked at the number.

It was a special number for the children’s Committee of the Federal Empire.




He sighed and picked up the phone.




“Young Master Ling Ping’an?” The Voice of a staff member came from the other end of the phone. “I’m a staff member of the Jiangcheng City Office of the Federal Empire’s Children’s Committee of the Federal Empire…”




“I’m not disturbing you, am I?”




“No…” Ling Ping’an actually wanted to complain about why he was calling him so early.




Unfortunately, he was a soft touch.




In the end, he knew that he was just a rice worm who relied on his parents.




If he was a rice worm, he had to recognize reality!




Even if he didn’t care about Ling Ping’an, they couldn’t do anything to him.




The Federal Empire’s protection of the descendants of meritorious deeds was unprecedented.




From cradle to grave, every stage had a generous policy.




As long as they didn’t break the law, most descendants of meritorious deeds would be able to live out their lives in prosperity.




A Grade A meritorious orphan like Ling Ping’an was even treated extremely well!




He could even add 20 points to his university entrance exam!




He was just too much of a sc.u.mbag!




If not, he would have simply gotten to the main point.




The att.i.tude of the staff on the other end of the phone was very good. He said in a soft voice, “It’s like this, young master. At around 10 am this morning, the imperial commissioner will represent the Imperial Family, the central federal government, and the Council of Ministers to pay a visit…”




“I wonder if you’re at home?”




When he asked this question, the staff member seemed a little nervous, and even his p.r.o.nunciation was a little shaky.




However, Ling Ping’an didn’t notice this detail because he was already in an extreme dilemma.




“At home…” He finally managed to squeeze out these two words after a long time.




“Okay!” The other party replied, “Then, the Imperial Commissioner will arrive on time…”




After hanging up the phone, Ling Ping’an let out a deep breath.




“Imperial Commissioner… Hhe scratched his hair. “Why does he have to target me?”




“Hmm…”




“Actually, I can understand…”




Ling Ping’an sat on the bed, holding his chin.




Of course, he could understand!




It was better to be unfilial than to have no children!




A person like him was probably already on the a.s.sa.s.sination list of the imperial capital’s Committee of Meritorious Children.




Perhaps, the officials of the committee of meritorious children had already been scolded by the higher-ups because of him.




It had even affected many people’s year-end bonuses and promotions.




Logically speaking, they had already given Ling Ping’an a lot of face by not paying him a visit until now.




Thinking of this, Ling Ping’an got up.




“I have to think of a way to fool them this time!” He muttered to himself, put on his clothes, and walked to the balcony.




It was a little cold in the morning, so he wrapped his clothes and looked into the distance.




What method should I use to fool them?




Ling Ping’an frowned deeply.




He really couldn’t think of a good way!




In the past two days, he had scratched his head, but he still couldn’t think of a feasible way.




“Don’t tell me… I really want to be tortured in the Imperial City?” The young bookstore owner’s eyes were full of melancholy.




To him, going to the imperial city was basically the same as going to jail.




In fact, going to jail was even better than going to the imperial city!




At the very least, there were no boring drinking parties and the daunting crowds.




Ling Ping’an couldn’t help but think of the feelings he had when he was eighteen years old at the Yao City’s social gathering.




The boring drinking parties, the unpalatable food.




There were also those young masters who liked to show off and those women who treated him like a commodity.




It was really a very uncomfortable experience!




After all, he was just a human…




Not a product placed on the cabinet in the mall!




Don’t look at me like you’re choosing goods!




…




Qin Keqing had already gotten up early in the morning and started to put on makeup.




Observing herself in the mirror, Qin Keqing nodded her head in satisfaction.




She had put on makeup without makeup today, which was also her favorite makeup.




Therefore, she reached out and picked up a draft on the dressing table, carefully reading it.




This was the draft that she had worked on last night.




After carefully reading it and making sure that she didn’t miss anything, she stood up.




Then, she walked around in front of the mirror.




Today, she specially changed into a retro dress.




This reduced the strong aura that was inherent in her body, thus making her look a little gentle.




After a careful inspection, Qin Keqing picked up the briefcase and put the royal emblem on her chest.




Then, she said to the mirror, “h.e.l.lo… I’m the Royal Commissioner, Qin Keqing…”




After thinking for a while, she felt that it was not serious enough. She adjusted herself again, then stretched out her hand and said to the mirror, “h.e.l.lo, the Royal Commissioner, Qin Keqing…”




At this moment, the door rang.




Qin Keqing walked over and opened the door and saw two police officers.




“Who are you?” Qin Keqing was puzzled.




“Captain Kang Xin of the River City branch of the Blackguard…” The leading police officer took out a doc.u.ment. “We are under orders to protect your safety today…”




Qin Keqing nodded. “Please come in…”




“No need!” The self-proclaimed captain Kang Xin said, “Your Excellency, we are here to inform you…”




With that, the two police officers turned around and left.




Qin Keqing watched as they quietly disappeared at the door, and she slowly frowned.




“The Blackguard is paying more attention to today’s visit than I imagined…” she thought.




This was the thing that surprised her the most.




Even though her understanding of the Blackguard wasn’t very detailed.




Nevertheless, as the personal secretary of the eldest princess, Qin Keqing had heard of the mighty might of the Blackguard in the transcendent being realm!




It was known as ‘kill the G.o.ds if the G.o.ds block, kill the ghosts if the ghosts block’!




It even left behind the bold words ‘even if you are a G.o.d, you must abide by the law’!




In her impression, the Blackguard had an incomparably overbearing style!




In the circle of the imperial city, there were even stories of the Blackguard destroying their family.




But now, this blackguard who destroyed their family showed an extremely serious and cautious att.i.tude towards this matter.




“So…”an outrageous and absurd thought appeared in Qin Keqing’s mind. “He even wants to admit defeat to the Blackguard?”




Thinking of this, she immediately shook her head and laughed. “How is that possible!”




Blackguard!




That was a blackguard!




A blackguard who did not abide by the law and even killed G.o.ds for you to see!




A blackguard who did not abide by the rules and would be caught and sent to court even if he had to hide to the ends of the earth!




A blackguard who was known as the ‘Shadow Hub’ and the ‘transcendent being’ of the central federal government!




How could such a powerful and violent organization submit to a person who was holed up in Jiangcheng City?




No matter how strong he was or how powerful he was, what could he do?




It couldn’t be that he was already so strong that even the blackguard could not restrain him, right?




If that was the case, how could he still be holed up here?




He would have long since taken turns to be the emperor of the capital and come to my home this year.




“Maybe I’m thinking too much…” Qin Keqing shook her head.




“However, the fact that the blackguard values him so much at least proves that the eldest princess’ judgment is correct!”




“He’s a person worth roping in!”




Such a strong person had actually appeared among the meritorious children.




This was the achievement of the Meritorious Children’s committee, and also her achievement!




At the thought of this, Qin Keqing’s eyes shone with incomparable confidence.




She thu picked up her briefcase and walked out of the room.




There was already a silver new-energy electric car waiting at the door.




…




Ling Ping’an sat at the counter.




He looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost ten o’clock.




“Little darling…” he gently touched the pet in his arms. “Today, Big Brother is going to face a great disaster!”




Indeed!




The great disaster was right in front of him!




Because he still hadn’t thought of a good way to solve the problem.




This also meant that he might have to agree to the request of the upcoming Imperial Commissioner, which was to go to the Imperial City and partic.i.p.ate in the Fellowship Party!




Thinking of the Imperial City and the Fellowship Party, the young bookstore owner had gooseb.u.mps all over his body!




The terrifying experience he had in the demon city last time, after being magnified 10 to 100 times, could barely reach the standard of the Imperial City Fellowship Party!




After all, that was the imperial city!




The imperial city that was known as the ‘White Jade Capital on Earth’!




In the three hundred years of the Federal Empire, the imperial city had long been the most prosperous and developed city on this planet.




Its population was almost 50 million!




It could even match the total population of a medium-sized country.




With his poor sense of direction, he probably wouldn’t even dare to leave the hotel when he arrived in the capital because he would get lost.




Thinking of this, he sighed again.




“Little Darling, what do you think if I quickly find a girlfriend after the commissioner leaves…” he asked, “Then, break up quickly… How about it?”




If that was the case, he could use the excuse of ‘hurt feelings’ to avoid it.




Wasn’t there a similar case on the internet?




When he returned home during the New Year, the migrant workers who didn’t have a girlfriend were afraid of being urged by their families to get married, so they rented one from the Internet.




Of course, he was just saying.




Looking for a girlfriend?




It was absolutely a waste of time!




Even if it was just a symbolic rental, it was actually not reliable!




Because of his ident.i.ty, it was destined that the committee of meritorious children would conduct a background check on his romantic partner. This was to prevent the meritorious descendants who lacked knowledge and experience from being cheated by criminals for money and s.e.x.




Meow!




The kitten in his arms meowed softly, not very approving of his master’s actions.




Ling Ping’an stroked its little brains and also let out a long sigh.




At this moment, the sound of a car came from the door.




A silver car stopped at the door.




Ling Ping’an turned his head slightly and saw a tall woman walk out of the car.




She closed the car door, and on her plump chest, the Phoenix emblem representing the eldest princess shone brightly under the sun.




Immediately, Ling Ping’an shook his head and stood up helplessly.




Be it a blessing or a curse, a disaster could not be avoided!




In this situation, he could only comfort himself like this.




…




Qin Keqing closed the car door and walked to the bookstore that was marked on her phone.




She walked to the bookstore and raised her head to take a look.




“Qiyuan Bookstore!”




A not-so-new sign was hanging at the door.




There was a gla.s.s door in front of her. It looked clean but a little old.




She tidied up her collar slightly and quickly went through the things she had memorized in her mind.




At the same time, she tidied up the draft she had prepared last night.




She carried her briefcase and walked to the gla.s.s door. Then, she gently knocked on the door.




Knock… Knock… Knock…




“Please come in…” a young man’s voice came from inside the door.




Qin Keqing pushed the door open and walked in.




When she entered, she saw an extremely simple but clean and tidy bookstore.




Rows and rows of bookshelves were displayed in a very beautiful way in the bookstore.




At the door was a counter. Inside the counter, a young man was already standing up with a cat in his arms.




Qin Keqing realized that the bookstore did not have heating and air conditioning on.




However, the temperature inside ranged from wenty-four to twenty-five degrees.




“h.e.l.lo…” Qin Keqing walked toward the young man according to the method she had practiced countless times. She reached out her hand and said, “I am the Commissioner of the Royal Family, Qin Keqing…”




“You’re Ling Ping’an, right?” she asked.




The young man smiled and adjusted the pair of cheap gla.s.ses that he was wearing. “Yes…”he also reached out his hand and said, “I’m Ling Ping’an…”




“Secretary Qin, we spoke on the phone…”




“Welcome…”




Qin Keqing shook his hand. At the moment of contact, Qin Keqing could clearly feel that the young man’s hand was very warm. When he held it, it felt like he was holding a warm water bag.




“Please have a seat!” He let go of her hand and called out to her. He led Qin Keqing to the sofa and picked up a disposable cup at the same time.




“Secretary Qin…”he turned his head and asked, “Would you like tea or a drink?”




Qin Keqing didn’t think much and sat on the sofa.




This sofa was a little strange. It looked like it was made of gray artificial leather.




However, after sitting on it, it was very flexible. It was as if she was sitting on the fat of a whale. It was soft and somewhat warm.




When she heard the other party’s words, she replied casually, “Tea!”




“Sure!” The other party smiled and picked up the cup. From the drawer of the counter, he took out a few leaves that looked like tea leaves.




Then, he walked to the water dispenser and pressed the hot water b.u.t.ton.




The sound of water splashing could be heard. After a while, he brought the cup to Qin Keqing. “Secretary Qin, please have some tea…”




He smiled sincerely.




As Qin Keqing took the cup and took a sip, her eyes immediately lit up.




“This is…”she began to recall. “What tea leaves?”




She had drunk all kinds of famous tea, even top-grade spirit tea.




However, none of them could match the taste of this cup of tea.




It was mellow, sweet, delicious, and warm to the heart.




As soon as it entered her throat, Qin Keqing even felt her brain clear up.




So…




“This is top-grade spirit tea?”She thought.




It was more or less like this.




But…




What was his purpose for doing this?




Qin Keqing had no choice but to fall into deep thought.




As the personal secretary of the Grand Princess, she was also very clear about the mission that the grand princess had invited her to do.




A person who could catch the attention of the grand princess and be valued by the blackguard at the same time could not be a simple person!




Such a person’s every move must have a deep meaning.




If she could not understand what he meant, it would be very difficult for her to achieve her goal this time!




Thus the problem came…




He deliberately used a cup of top-grade or even super-grade spirit tea in the beginning.




What did he want to say?
