Kulei lazily crossed his legs and slumped on the sofa, drinking.
In the silence, Bai Xie spoke first: "What do you want to do?"
He asked what behavior of Hua Changle would determine whether she should stay or leave after she arrived.
The performer immediately replied, "Too delicate, no."
The crow looked up: "Crazy, no."
Kulei smiled coldly: "I don't serve Miss."
She swirled her wine glass and said languidly, "I heard that he's a ruthless person who single-handedly turned the young masters and ladies of the Hua family upside down."
Our Goubuli temple is too small; we probably can't afford to serve that kind of fierce old witch.
The other three immediately looked at her: Do you even remember you're a witch? Is it really okay to call someone an old witch?
Kulei didn't care at all.
She suddenly asked, "By the way, has any of you seen that Hua Changle?"
All three shook their heads. The actor said, "We've been separated by two years, I haven't seen him before."
Kulai sneered, "A crazy, brainless girl who was adopted and doesn't have the good genes of the Hua family is probably going to die ugly!"
"Oh no, oh no, my sister's eyes!"
She dramatically touched her eyes: "Ah~ she hurt my eyes! I'm going to give her a good, good scolding!"
"Knock knock." A knock sounded on the door.
The performer quickly put away her cosmetics; the crow shoved the game console under her buttocks; Bai Xie instantly became dignified and refined; Kulai instantly became noble and aloof, striking a perfect pose.
"Come in."
The door opened, and amidst the four people's secretly mischievous anticipation, a cute little girl followed Hua Anning in.
Cute little girl?
Cute!
Bai Xie had a bad feeling. He glanced over and saw that Kulai, who had been speaking rudely just moments before, now had his eyes wide open and his gaze was extremely fiery.
While feeling frustrated and disappointed, he was also curious: Was this a disguise? It was too perfect.
Even he, a master of understanding human nature, thought she was truly obedient!
Until, this junior schoolmate actually greeted them one by one, like she was paying respects to elders during Chinese New Year, sweetly calling out to them all:
"Hello, Senior Bai Xie, Senior Ling Ren, Senior Ku Lai Yi, and Senior Wu Ya."
The four of them sighed inwardly: So well-behaved!
After that, Hua Changle officially joined the ranks of the Goubuli staff!
