After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 745

Chapter 745: My Valuable Head
The room fell into silence for several minutes. Qin Lie and Ye Lingfeng, with a tacit understanding, looked up at the ceiling, pretending not to know Zhouzhou. The Commander and Zhao Xinghua looked at them with disdain.

They usually pampered the little girl so much that it had turned her into a money-obsessed child at such a young age. It was ironic, given that one was a billionaire and the other a war hero with numerous riches. How could they be so stingy?

Xi Mo’s lips twitched as he tried to catch up with the little girl’s train of thought. He gently explained, “Zhouzhou, the money can only be exchanged by your head.”

“I know,” Zhouzhou nodded, patting her head proudly. “This one hundred million head is very smart!”

Xi Mo: “……”

Okay, okay, we get it, your head is valuable. There was nothing more to say. He had forgotten the prepared speech and didn’t know how to respond.

In the end, it was Ye Lingfeng who, understanding his little girl’s nature, lightly chuckled and said, “Zhouzhou, explain your thoughts.”

“Alright,” Zhouzhou carefully settled down, hugging her head as if it were a precious treasure. She never imagined becoming rich was so close.

She touched her neck again.

No wonder her neck sometimes hurt a bit. Carrying one hundred million, it must be heavy.

Seeing their gazes on her, Zhouzhou cleared her throat and asked Xi Mo, “Uncle, you mean that someone wants to kill me, and killing me will earn them one hundred million? Is that right?”

Xi Mo nodded, waiting for her next words.

Zhouzhou clapped her chubby hands together and said, “That’s right. We can use my head to get money, then catch the bad guys and sell them to Second Uncle, right?”

She counted on her fingers, “One part of the bounty, one part for catching the killer, and one part for catching the person who placed the bounty.”

“Wow, we’re going to be rich!”

The little girl’s mouth stretched from ear to ear, her eyes narrowing into slits of joy.

Someone nearby, seeing her nonchalant attitude towards danger, couldn’t help but remind her, “Zhouzhou, if you’re dead, you won’t be able to spend any money.”

“Nonsense.” Zhouzhou could not tolerate such gloomy talk. Did they think this was something to say to a girl worth one hundred million?

She gave them an irritated look, “I’m still here, so how could I not spend it?”

“And if you’re talking about using your head to get money…” The person was still confused about Zhouzhou’s line of thinking.

Qin Lie and Ye Lingfeng, however, had understood something, and their eyes twinkled with amusement.

Zhouzhou nodded, “That’s what I said. But.”

She paused, then continued, “They just want a head, so we can make a fake one. Why listen to the bad guys? ”

“We just needed an excuse to meet them, then capture them and exchange them for money, silly!” Zhouzhou said, exasperated.

Sigh, she couldn’t really blame them.

With their ordinary brains, how could they match the brilliance of her one-billion brain?

No choice.

You get what you pay for. It’s understandable.

“No,” Ye Lingfeng said slowly, shattering Zhouzhou’s dream.

Her little face fell immediately, looking pitifully at him. “Why not?”

“Because those people are very dangerous.”

Xi Mo nodded in agreement. “Zhouzhou, we brought you here today to show you that there are always people better than you and that there are dangers you can’t handle with your skills alone.”

“Bad guys won’t give you many chances to escape.”

Hearing this, Zhouzhou remembered being drugged earlier and how powerless she felt at that time. If there had been real bad guys, she would have been in trouble.

Recalling her helplessness, Zhouzhou involuntarily shrank her head.

Seeing she was aware of danger, Xi Mo nodded inwardly. Arrogant soldiers will be defeated; underestimating the enemy only harms oneself.

“Is there no other way?” Zhouzhou pouted, feeling heartbroken at the prospect of losing the money.

She clutched her little fists to her chest, almost in tears.

Ye Lingfeng couldn’t help but smile slightly at her distressed expression.

Zhao Xinghua chimed in, “Of course there is. There are many tasks on the Dark Web, each starting at one hundred thousand. You could take on some tasks too.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up, “Really?”

Zhao Xinghua glanced cautiously at Ye Lingfeng, knowing he didn’t want Zhouzhou to be exposed to the Dark Web too soon. He covered his mouth, regretting his slip.

Qin Lie’s gaze was also cold. As a Dark Web member himself, he was all too aware of its nature. If possible, he would never want Zhouzhou to be involved.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xinghua had let it slip.

Seeing Zhouzhou’s excited look, Qin Lie knew they couldn’t stop her now. After a moment’s thought, he nodded, “Yes, that’s right.”

Zhouzhou became even more excited, “Dad, what tasks are there? Show me quickly!”

Qin Lie nodded and sat down in front of the computer.

Before he could start, he exchanged a knowing glance with Ye Lingfeng. Despite their usual bickering, they were in perfect sync this time.

Ye Lingfeng immediately pulled Zhouzhou aside and said, “Zhouzhou, actually, the money you calculated might not all be obtainable.”

Hearing about money, the little financial enthusiast’s attention was quickly diverted, and she looked eagerly at Ye Lingfeng.

Qin Lie held the computer, his fingers rapidly tapping on it.

Xi Mo seemed to sense something, stepping forward to block Zhouzhou’s view of the screen.

Ye Lingfeng continued, “You probably won’t be able to get that bounty, but what you mentioned about catching people and exchanging them for money is doable.”

“There are people who take orders and are also on other people’s wanted lists.”

“Catching them could earn you a bounty and a reward, which would be no less than your own bounty amount.”

Zhouzhou furrowed her brows, “What level are these people? Are they worth as much as my head?”

After all, her head was worth one hundred million!

Ye Lingfeng: “……”

He glanced at Qin Lie and gritted his teeth, “Stop letting Zhouzhou watch TV.”

“It’s Zhouzhou who watched it with her grandpa,” Qin Lie explained casually, handing the computer to Zhouzhou. “Here, the task list is right here.”

Zhouzhou eagerly leaned in to look, but her face turned puzzled as she read the content.

“Prove the Goldbach Conjecture.”

“Why is the time shown as linear?”

“Verify the Hodge Conjecture.”

“……”

Every word was recognizable, but together they made no sense to her.

Others struggled to suppress their laughter.

They were effectively using world’s unsolved problems as tasks for a young student–wasn’t that just bullying the child?
