"...If that's the case, we'll have to consider deducting a portion from your salary, Chef!"
"They're spending my salary anyway!"
When that familiar voice rang out, Qingyuan and Haiseyin slowly turned their heads, glanced at it, and then turned back at the same time in tacit understanding.
The two looked down at the Caesar salad and two-nut mooncakes on the table. No wonder the food was so bad today; it turned out that Krydella was in charge of cooking. The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Qingyuan: "Oh dear, it's getting late."
Hazel: "Yes, it's been a long day. Let's go back and rest."
"They're going to skip out on the bill, mia!" exclaimed a seasoned miaaa fan who had become a full-time employee. "Miss Qingyuan always skips out on the bill, and nobody can stop her—unless someone is willing to sing her self-composed 'Hakimi Song' with her!"
The next second, Qingyuan had already disappeared without a trace using the anchor point, leaving only Heiseyin behind.
Several rolling pins flew over – if Qingyuan hadn't run fast, she would probably have been knocked to the ground by now.
As for Hathaway, Krydela ultimately couldn't bring herself to actually do it, knowing that Hathaway wouldn't dodge.
She walked to the table, her gaze sweeping over the various dishes and empty wine glasses that were still mostly on the table, before looking at Hazel.
"Do you have anything to explain?"
Hathaway shook her head.
"Isn't there even an explanation?!"
Hathaway looked at Crydella and said, "I have no room for further explanation."
How could she possibly explain that? That she herself was the Silver Joyful Fish?
Seeing that Ludela did not continue to ask questions, she turned to look at the little fairies instead.
"What do you know?"
"This morning, when I was serving the food, Miss Hathaway said: 'I promise you, you can do anything to me,' and that's the rest!" Rocket One replied truthfully.
"When I was serving the dishes this morning, I heard Miss Qingyuan say that they should find a hotel first, and then they left."
"What happened next, I don't know," Rocket III added.
"What will happen next? It's so hard to guess, isn't it?" Rocket II looked very curious.
Kerudela was taken aback, a look of confusion and a hint of annoyance rising in her eyes.
She suppressed her emotions, forcing herself to maintain her usual composure, and asked, "What did you promise her? You... you never easily give in to others."
Heather was silent for a moment, then simply shook her head: "Just some trivial jokes."
"A joke?" Krystal frowned, then suddenly remembered the reproductive power within Qingyuan, and her heart tightened. "You weren't influenced by that power within her, were you?"
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and she immediately decided: "You come with me to Qiongguan Formation now. And her... I'll talk to Xilian about it."
Onfaros's Qiong Guan Zhen (穷观阵) is also used for interrogation and lie detection in important matters. The flowing light of the array can reflect the truth or falsehood of thoughts.
Krystal brought Heather into the formation, and threw Qingyuan, who was clinging to her leg and begging for mercy, into it as well. The formation light slowly rose.
"Haiserin!" Crydella's expression was serious, with a hint of worry in her eyes. "What has she done to you?"
"I..." A blush appeared on Heather's face. "She didn't do anything."
"Not doing anything doesn't mean you didn't do anything at all, right?"
"right."
"So that means you did everything, right?"
"what?"
I knew it!
It must have been that bastard who tricked you!
I'm going to beat her into a blue kite-like shape!
Upon hearing this, Heather panicked. "No, she was just curious about my body structure and used the power of destiny to examine it."
Kerudela looked at the lie detector results: the result was true.
"Is there anything else?"
"There were some slightly intimate physical contacts, but I felt they were still within the normal range!"
Aside from that, there weren't any special requirements, and then we just played all day.
Upon confirming the verdict, Krydela breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Heather was alright, but then realized something was amiss.
"What do you mean? You've been playing all day? Did she coerce you?"
"I think so." Determined to be false.
Qingyuan would never force anyone. If Haiseyin really didn't want to, she wouldn't even touch the hem of her clothes.
"You actually! Okay, that's your private matter, but what exactly made you two suddenly become so close?"
She used to be closer to me because we're similar in build.
"No, no, that little crown on your head doesn't count. You're two centimeters shorter than me."
Qingyuan looked at Krystal, then hugged Heather tightly and said, "But you are both my wings. Shall we play games together tonight?"
Krystalla watched Qingyuan hug Heather, heard the height declaration, and felt her wallet throbbing with pain, and became furious.
Almost instinctively, she took off the small crown from her head and threw it at Qingyuan's head.
"I'm taller than you now."
The sharp part pierced Qingyuan's head directly, and the next second...
"Ah! Miss Qingyuan, your head is bleeding! Are you that fragile?"
With a surge of abundant power within her, Qingyuan was completely restored. At least it's warm now, and the flames inside won't cause her pain.
"Don't worry, the blood I just spat out can grant someone immortality with a single drop, so I'll be fine!" The verdict was confirmed.
If this is true, then why is she recovering even slower than Wan Di? Crydella pondered...
"I have something to do, I'll be going now."
Watching Krydella walk away, Hathaway dared not call out to her.
What if they keep asking and actually find out something?
In the underworld, Qingyuan sprayed her own blood, which was evenly distributed throughout the sea of flowers.
Then, the entire sea of flowers began to grow wildly, quickly covering Qingyuan's head and stopping just before touching Haiseyin's cheek.
"Look, isn't this sea of flowers beautiful? I wonder if Xia Die will like it?"
"I won't like beauty created like this." Xia Die arrived at some point, looking at Qing Yuan with a somewhat angry expression.
There was also a panicked blank space next to her. Now that she was able to control herself, she quickly stepped forward, picked up Qingyuan, and began to examine her.
Polysia arrived in her wheelchair at that moment: "You dare to criticize Bai'er? Look at yourself!"
"This really means nothing to me. Believe me or not, even if you burn me to ashes and we all came together, I could still live."
"This has nothing to do with that!" Blank hugged Qingyuan tightly. "Please don't do this anymore!"
Although I have no memory of it, when I saw this scene, I felt like you were trying to heal someone's wounds... and then, I can't remember, but I was so scared and so sad..."
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan gently patted the blank back.
He verbally agreed, but in his heart he was thinking something else entirely.
What story did the cosplayer teacher, who was being chased by the other half of the comic convention, write about, and who became her "soulmate" at first sight, feeling like they had known each other for a long time?
"Okay, next time for sure, next time for sure."
"You always say that, but you always do it secretly... From now on, you'll live with me, and I'll keep an eye on you!"
