"Okay, I understand. I'll just not come here as often in the future."
Qingcheng was frightened by the God-King's constant mentions of "returning to the God Realm" and "getting married," so she had no choice but to compromise and say, "I agree, but if anything happens in the future, I'll just have Qiyou come over, and I won't come anymore."
"Hmm, that's more like it," Lord Hongyan was finally satisfied, but he still didn't understand why Qingcheng would want to open a brothel. He sat down on a chair to the side: "By the way, why did you and Qiyou think of opening this kind of store?"
Seeing that the Divine Lord was not as domineering as before, Qingcheng found a seat and said, "Well, this place was actually opened a long time ago. Back then, I had just become king, and many people under me were not convinced. So Qiyou suggested that I establish my own forces. This place was used to gather information for us and to provide cover for the army."
When Hongyan Shenjun heard what Qingcheng said, he understood. Brothels and similar places are usually quite chaotic, so it is indeed very convenient to gather information. However, he couldn't understand why they were providing cover for the army. Did the army not stay in the palace, but outside?
"You can explain opening brothels to gather information, but what about your army? Can an army be hidden in this place?"
Looking at the person opposite him, Qingcheng knew he would ask this question. He smiled and then lowered his voice to say, "Of course, this place can't be used to hide, but there is a place to hide about five miles away."
Five miles away from the 'Xunhuan Pavilion' there is a village. The villagers usually pretend to be ordinary villagers, but in reality, they are an army of Qingcheng.
Because everyone knew that this area belonged to the Demon King, no one suspected the village, so the army was kept well hidden.
After learning the location of the army, Lord Hongyan finally showed an expression of sudden realization: "Oh, I see."
He now realized that it wasn't easy for Qingcheng to be a demon king in the demon realm, so he said, "Qingcheng, I actually think that instead of fighting with those old fogies every day, you should just give up your position and come to the god realm with me. The demon realm is too chaotic, and I'm very worried about you."
Qingcheng knew this guy was trying to coax her to the God Realm again. Ever since she returned to the Demon Realm, Lord Hongyan had been trying every possible way to get her to go there. He sighed, rubbing his forehead, and said, "No, it's not so bad. They were all well-behaved when Father was still alive. It's only after Father left the Demon Realm that they started acting like this. Ultimately, it's because my abilities aren't enough, so they don't acknowledge me. Besides, Father has entrusted the throne to me, so I definitely have to manage it well. Even if I were to marry you, I'd have to wait for my parents to return first."
Seeing that Qingcheng's words were reasonable, Lord Hongyan knew that his attempt to deceive her had failed again. He could only say regretfully, "But I just don't know when Uncle and the others will come back. Look, you've been back for so long, and they still haven't returned. They haven't even replied to the letters they sent. We don't know where they went or when they will come back..."
"Hmm, perhaps it's because the places Father and Mother visited were too far away that they were so slow~"
Deep down, Qingcheng was actually quite happy that her father and mother hadn't believed it, but she couldn't show her joy too obviously. So she pretended to be helpless and said, "How about this, God, you should return to the God Realm first. I'll send someone to inform you when I have news."
"Hehe~ No need for that, I can wait here slowly."
Hongyan Divine Lord had naturally guessed Qingcheng's little scheme long ago. He said with a smile, "Anyway, I'm just idling around anyway, so it doesn't matter where I am. There's no need for me to go back to the Divine Realm."
Seeing his expression, Qingcheng knew that this deity was determined to stay. Finally, she had no choice but to say, "Fine, you figure it out yourself."
J City.
After taking leave for more than a week, the colleagues in the management office were finally able to return to work.
"Beep! Work card~"
Yue Jiuling entered the office just in time, as usual. She immediately placed a large pile of snacks and breakfast on the table and greeted her colleagues, "Come on, have you had breakfast yet? I have lots of food here, please have some!"
Because Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue bought too many snacks last time, and they were worried that they would expire if they couldn't finish them all, Yue Jiuling had no choice but to give them to her colleagues.
Bai Xinyu was sitting in a chair drinking yogurt when she heard Yue Jiuling say she was treating, so she immediately came over to pick out snacks: "Oh, why did you buy so much food? I didn't have enough for breakfast today, so give me a few steamed buns."
Mu Xiaoyi also came over and said, "I don't have enough to eat either, I want a few too."
"Okay, please help yourselves. I just bought too much last time, and I was worried it would expire if I couldn't finish it, so I thought I'd bring it over for you to eat."
As Yue Jiuling put down her bag, she took a few snacks and walked into Director Yu's office, intending to give the director some to eat as well.
Yinni and Ye Dongfeng also arrived, both looking sleepy and clearly having stayed up late and not gotten enough sleep.
Ye Dongfeng picked out a few small cakes, then got a glass of water and ate them with his breakfast. He mumbled through a small cake, "Hey, I was thinking of skipping breakfast today and waiting for lunch, but now I don't have to go hungry."
