"Good morning! Would you like something to eat, Dad?"
"Why do you have dark circles under your eyes? Did you not sleep well last night, Dad?"
Early in the morning, Xu Shi had just stepped out of his room when he heard such greetings coming from both the front and the back.
Looking up, I saw Jiang Chengcheng and Gu Yi standing like door gods, grinning and joking.
"...Eavesdropping, huh?"
Mr. Xu, who was still a little confused, instantly woke up, sorted out the cause and effect, and said in an annoyed tone.
Their rooms aren't far from mine... but is the soundproofing in this house really that bad?
"Hey, what do you mean by eavesdropping? You can't say that, 'Dad'!"
Xie Qingyan joined in at some point, saying, "It's just the wind blowing into your ears. Eavesdropping is too awful."
It has to be said that it would be a waste of their talents if these three didn't form a group and debut as a crosstalk duo.
At least for a while, it was a bit difficult to spot; someone who didn't know better might have thought it was some kind of large-scale family reunion.
Looking back, the culprit that caused all this was still asleep, lying limply on the bed, looking quite adorable in its sleeping posture.
However, Xu Shi noticed that the old lady's upturned lips were quite strange, and he couldn't help but twitch.
...You're pretending to be asleep, aren't you? You must be pretending to be asleep!
Mr. Xu, who knew all this, was stunned for a moment, but then he was no longer embarrassed.
What's there to be embarrassed about? It's not like I was the one calling him "Dad" all night!
It's not my fault if someone overhears me, but why is Li shouting so loudly?
"Huh? What are you doing?"
Just as the atmosphere was becoming awkward, a voice interrupted them, "What are you all standing here for? Don't you have anything to do?"
The only person who could withstand the pressure from so many girls and act as Xu Shi's mouth double is our Governor Tang Shuang.
"You guys all got up really early."
Xu Shi quickly changed the subject, "Is it because you're not used to the new environment and haven't rested well?"
"Is it because you're preoccupied with something on your mind?"
Tang Shuang remained noncommittal, pushing aside the others to join in, "Although the war is over, there are still follow-up matters to deal with, aren't there?"
"Didn't we say we were going to the palace later to talk to the little empress? Are you all ready?"
"...There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Seeing her serious face, Xu Shi shrugged, "Want to have some breakfast first?"
The so-called "discussion" refers to a formal and official process to finalize the cooperation between the two territories with the royal family of the Hualan Empire.
It needs to be more formal than before, with formalities like publishing in newspapers or announcing it to the world. The discussions will also be more detailed and specific, including not only material assistance and infrastructure construction, but also talent exchange, resource exchange, and a series of other things.
All of this required Tang Shuang's involvement, especially since her arrival meant she needed to make an appearance—she was the nominal supreme ruler of Night Sin City and needed to take this opportunity to appear before the subjects of the Hua Lan Empire.
"Either is fine, it's up to you."
Tang Shuang shrugged, looking indifferent. "Of course, if Chairman Xu doesn't mind, why not accompany me for a stroll in the streets before we go, so I can experience the local customs and culture?"
"……OK."
Xu Shi wouldn't refuse, but there was something strange about her words...
Indeed, for today's girls, referring to Xu Shi as "Chairman Xu" carries a sarcastic or sarcastic tone.
"Let's set off now."
Governor Tang acted swiftly, grabbing Xu Shi and running away.
The poor, weak Mr. Xu, who was powerless to even kill a chicken, could only be forcibly taken away by her.
As for the others... sorry, they don't have any plans to come along for the time being.
Of course they can go. No one can stop them from going together; it all depends on whether they want to or not.
The answer is no.
All three of them were focused on Xia Ke'an, who was still pretending to sleep on the bed.
"...Xu bastard, what a complete bastard!"
Gu Yi gritted her teeth in hatred, "How could you even lay a hand on a child?"
This wasn't a direct attack on Xu Shi, but rather a sarcastic remark directed at the older woman.
After all, she hasn't reverted to her adult form yet—Miss Black Rabbit has already learned about the backstory of her relationship with Xu Shi from other people.
To be fair, she wouldn't say anything if it were someone else, but what could she do when she and the white-haired older sister had never gotten along? They were like bickering, bickering lovers.
Now that he's seen the other person climb into Xu Shi's bed, it would be a lie to say he didn't react.
The key is that her figure is even better than hers! She saw it last night, and now her hazy appearance lying on the bed is even more alluring. If she doesn't have a curvaceous figure, she's at least got a great bust and butt.
This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to Gu Yi—we agreed to be tablets together, but you secretly betrayed me!
"Yeah yeah."
Jiang Chengcheng, as always, quietly stirred things up, saying, "Sister Ke'an must have been exhausted, she's so pitiful."
"Let's get her checked out. She's already weak, and I'd be heartbroken if she developed any more illnesses."
Xie Qingyan, pretending to be oblivious, floated lightly to Xia Ke'an's side.
The old lady originally wanted to pretend to be asleep, but when she saw three dark figures standing straight in front of the bed, she knew that she couldn't escape this ordeal. She had no choice but to pretend that she didn't know anything and opened her eyes in a daze as if waking up from a dream.
"you……"
She tried to fool everyone by being cute, instantly transforming into a little girl and waving sweetly, "Hi~ Good morning, sisters~"
