Lin Xiao couldn't help but envy him. What kind of brain did Qi Tian have? Even after what happened between them just now, he immediately turned back to the computer and continued as if nothing had happened.
He hadn't seen anyone else achieve this. Qi Tian had. It was a loss to society that he wasn't a researcher.
He thought about it again, wasn't Qi Tian a researcher now?
Lin Xiao opened his mouth, then patted Qi Tian and said, "Given your performance just now, I need to treat you to a New Year's Eve dinner."
"Ah?"
Qi Tian was stunned. Treat him to a New Year's Eve dinner?
Why? How?
About twenty minutes later, he understood what Lin Xiao meant by treating him to a New Year's Eve dinner.
He was locked up in a prison in the Northern Territory.
"Young Master, we're following the rules. You'll stay here for a while first, alright? Don't worry, you'll be well-fed and the bed is comfortable enough. Get some good rest." Lin Xiao looked at Qi Tian, greeted him, and left.
If Qi Tian wanted to leave this prison, no one would stop him. But... if Qi Tian really left, he would be finished.
Lin Xiao and Qi Tian would not let him go just because of their transactions.
Ye Chen was a bit confused at first, but after Lin Xiao told him what had just happened, he exclaimed, "Are you okay, Brother Xiao? He actually made a move?"
As he spoke, he seemed to be checking Lin Xiao from head to toe.
However, Lin Xiao quickly stopped him with his eyes, looking at Ye Chen as if he were an idiot. "If there was a problem, would I still be standing here?"
"Oh... right."
Ye Chen awkwardly retracted his hand.
"Alright, remember to treat him well and don't neglect him," Lin Xiao said. "You'll personally deliver the meals."
"Yes."
If it were someone else, Lin Xiao wouldn't feel at ease. With Ye Chen, at least there was a slight reaction time and the ability to resist... that was all.
He looked at Qi Tian, who was staring at the small table in his room. He placed his laptop on it and unhesitatingly continued his studies.
After Lin Xiao and Ye Chen finished talking, Qi Tian finally spoke, "Don't worry, I'll behave myself here. You don't have to worry either. I'll just quietly research here... By the way, how long will I be locked up?"
"Not too long. It's no use keeping you locked up for too long. I'll call you when I'm leaving," Lin Xiao mused. Imprisoning this guy wasn't a safe solution. He would only be locked up for a few days. When he was ready to leave, he would take Qi Tian with him.
It was when he was by Qi Tian's side that Qi Tian was safest.
"Okay, then I'll continue."
With that, he immersed himself in his own world.
Lin Xiao opened his mouth, then signaled Ye Chen to leave with him.
"Brother Xiao, this guy is a ticking time bomb!" Ye Chen couldn't help but say as soon as they left the prison.
"Of course, I know. This bomb, I'll have to carry it with me. I wouldn't dare leave it anywhere else," Lin Xiao rubbed his forehead. This guy was too dangerous.
He didn't know when Qi Tian would create a few more puppets.
And even if he confiscated Qi Tian's three strongest puppets, what about the others? For ordinary people, a puppet at the Divine Realm was like a god.
