The Feng Shui Treasure Appraiser

276: Chapter 276 The MistressHan Jingyang carefully examined the four evolved Flower Fairies.

After a moment, he nodded in satisfaction.

”It is indeed just as I wished.”

Semi-materialized.

Their figures and appearances are much more realistic.

Even their heights are closer to normal people, and they are no longer identical in height, but varied.

Zou Shuying and Zou Feixiang are both nearly 1.7 meters tall, with figures that are more upright than before—definitely model-like bodies.

Zou Handan is a little over 1.6 meters tall, her figure is plumper, and even her face is slightly rounder, giving off the vibe of a wealthy, beautiful woman, but her features are even more delicate than those of the famous beauty.

Zou Rushuang’s figure hasn’t changed much, still around 1.58 meters, but she feels thinner overall. Seeing her, one cannot help but recall the line ”thinner than the yellow flowers.” Paired with her goose-yellow long dress, she looks even more pitiful and delicate.

Overall, the changes in the four Flower Fairies’ appearances are significant, especially with their individual traits becoming more distinct, better matching their original forms.

Before the appraisal, although they had intelligence, they lacked a certain liveliness, feeling a bit like they were copy-pasted—you could tell at a glance they were 2D characters.

But now, no one would ever guess that these are four 2D characters.

In every aspect, they are identical to normal people, and they can even simulate the sound of normal footsteps.

Han Jingyang walked up to Zou Shuying and gently patted her on the shoulder.

It felt fleshy and had body heat.

Even the texture of her apricot-yellow outer garment was incredibly realistic; that silky, smooth feel was exactly like real silk.

Through the two layers of gauze clothing, he could feel the warm, gentle heat of her body even more clearly.

Was this simulated? Or is it really this realistic?

He took the opportunity to raise his hand and gently touched Zou Shuying’s delicate cheek with his fingertip.

Hiss! This touch! It’s truly amazing.

So delicate and bouncy, soft and tender, and still with body heat—it’s no different from a real person.

I wonder if other places are just as realistic.

If they are all just as realistic... Han Jingyang became excited in an instant.

He even started thinking about finding an excuse to study whether these thin layers of gauze clothing could be taken off.

Presumably, the four of them definitely wouldn’t refuse a request from me, their master... right?

Han Jingyang was excited for a long while, but he eventually calmed down.

Thinking about it in his heart was one thing, but if he were to actually say it or do it, that would be very sleazy.

These aren’t just 2D characters or soulless dolls; they are Flower Fairies with normal intelligence. Aside from a few special traits, they are no different from living, normal people in any other respect.

Or rather, they are four living, breathing people.

Towards one’s own kind, one must still show enough respect.

Even if he wanted to do something, he couldn’t be this impatient; he had to take it slow, simmer it over a low flame, and let things happen naturally.

”Hmm.” Han Jingyang took a deep breath and nodded. ”Not bad, no difference from normal people. From now on, you can move about the shop openly. If anyone asks, just say you are employees I hired. Use your own names, and don’t say anything else.”

”Yes, Master.”

Watching the four Flower Fairies bow and answer in unison, a sense of satisfaction surged within Han Jingyang.

This is what life is about.

To be able to have four such outstanding Flower Fairies call me ”Master” in unison—I could die without regrets.

If only I could go a step further... Wait, I can’t die yet.

There are still many good days ahead.

Perhaps there will be a chance to gather the Twelve Flower Goddesses or even the Hundred Flower Fairies.

By then, I’ll build a huge manor and do nothing all day but bring my women home to frolic and play with these Flower Fairies...

Thinking of the wonderful possibilities, Han Jingyang’s face beamed with a smile full of anticipation.

Zou Handan chuckled. ”Master, you can assign us some appropriate work.”

”Work?” Han Jingyang thought for a moment. ”You can entertain guests in the living room, or serve tea and water. Do you know tea art? If not, you can learn a little. Hmm, you don’t need all four to go out together; one or two can take turns.”

”We have observed it; as long as we have the tools, it won’t be difficult to pick up.”

”That’s good,” Han Jingyang nodded in satisfaction. ”Of course, this isn’t a hard requirement; it depends on your own wishes. If you’re willing to help, go ahead. If you don’t want to show your faces, you can rest and play here. I’ll get you a few computers; when you’re free, you can go online to chat or play some games.”

”Thank you, Master.”

”You’re welcome. Come on, follow me out.”

”Yes, Master.”

Han Jingyang led the four Flower Fairies back to the living room and smiled at Liu Jing and Shi Xiaoya. ”I have a surprise for you. Look, who is this?”

Shi Xiaoya and Liu Jing immediately tensed up, staring fixedly at the door to the inner room.

The next second, they saw four ancient-costumed beauties of different figures and temperaments walking out gracefully.

Shi Xiaoya instantly widened her eyes. ”How did they change so much?”

Liu Jing nodded blankly. ”Are they more realistic?”

Han Jingyang smiled. ”Yes, they are now no different from normal people, except they cannot leave Jiguang Zhai. However, within Jiguang Zhai, they possess abilities humans lack. Not only can they help with chores, but they can also protect Jiguang Zhai. They have a unique illusion technique that can disorient any incoming enemy, and it is actively controllable.”

Liu Jing clapped mindlessly. ”Great! I used to worry that Jiguang Zhai would be targeted, and I was always anxious whenever I went out. Now it’s better; no more worries.”

Shi Xiaoya, however, asked softly, ”Hubby, are they really the same as normal people?”

”Yes.”

”Can they have children?”

”This...” Han Jingyang coughed and put on a straight face. ”How are you talking? Who asks questions like that the first time they meet someone? Don’t do that next time.”

Zou Shuying smiled sweetly and bowed. ”I, Zou Rushuang, greet the two mistresses.”

At this, Shi Xiaoya beamed with joy. ”Good, good. From now on, you are members of Jiguang Zhai. If you need anything, just speak up, and I will help you.”

”Thank you, Mistress.”

”Hahaha, you’re welcome, you’re welcome.”

Shi Xiaoya was happy, smiling from ear to ear.

Mistress. Who wouldn’t get a kick out of being called that?

Liu Jing, on the other hand, was quite startled, waving her hands and shaking her head in a flurry, at a loss, unable to even speak.

It took quite a while before things calmed down.

Han Jingyang found a place to hang the painting by Zou Yigui, then briefly explained the situation of the four Flower Fairies to Shi Xiaoya and Liu Jing, while aligning their stories and concocting a flawless identity for the four Flower Fairies.

Shi Xiaoya thought for a moment. ”Everything else is fine, but what about household registration and identity information? Should we get them ID cards?”

Han Jingyang waved his hand and refused directly. ”What are you thinking? Who could trace anything to them? If someone really comes to investigate, they can just jump into the painting and let them search. They’ll never find anything, no matter how long they look.”

”Won’t it still be a bit inconvenient?”

”It doesn’t matter. Who would dare come here to cause trouble? If census takers really come here, it means I’ve already fallen on hard times, and whether they have ID cards or not won’t protect them. Conversely, as long as I am not down and out, let alone a few measly ID cards, even bigger troubles wouldn’t matter at all.”
