At this moment.
Hu Liena was completely bewildered.
Spirit Kite Douluo's expression was a little embarrassed. She turned to look at Hu Liena, then quietly nodded.
Time passed slowly.
On the street.
Hu Liena stopped and looked quietly at Spirit Kite Douluo. After a long while, she finally spoke:
"Aunt, are you serious?"
This is outrageous!
Ling Yuan Auntie, you're actually giving yourself away for free? You actually want to try young grass, and it's the young grass in my house? How are we going to get along after this?
Spirit Kite Douluo said calmly:
"I'm serious!"
"We've read the diary content, Nana, you should be very clear that Aunt still has a death tribulation later. If we don't do anything, who knows what changes will happen or if I can avoid it."
"Liam is very good, very young! Very handsome! Very strong! Aunt wants to work hard to win him over. That way, Aunt will have someone to rely on in every aspect in the future."
Hu Liena fell silent upon hearing this.
If it were Qian Renxue, she wouldn't say anything, but! Ling Yuan Auntie, you're not young anymore, and you actually want to share young grass with me?
"Ling Yuan Auntie, I might not be able to help much with this. After all, I can't control this kind of thing. Everything still depends on Liam."
Spirit Kite Douluo smiled and said:
"Nana, do you think Aunt has no charm and can't win him over with my own strength?"
"Although Aunt is an old maid, I've walked more paths than the scenery you've seen. Aunt is confident that I can win him over with my own strength."
Ah, this.
Hu Liena looked at Spirit Kite Douluo with a strange expression upon hearing this, and two phrases popped into her mind—premeditated—well-prepared—dishonorable.
Hu Liena hesitated and said:
"Then Aunt, how will we divide things in the future?"
Hu Liena still felt a bit numb. After all, she and Spirit Kite Douluo were of different generations. Hu Liena was an orphan, and people like Spirit Kite Douluo and Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo had watched her grow up since she was a child.
This made Hu Liena uncomfortable, just like if her Teacher Bibi Dong were to share the same young grass with her.
Spirit Kite Douluo said seriously:
"Aunt has thought about it."
"Outside in the future, you'll continue to call me Aunt. At home, I'll call you Older Sister."
Hu Liena:???
Numb.
Truly numb.
"Alright, alright!"
"Then Aunt, tell me, when are you planning to take action?"
"I guess you can see it too. Those people at home, including Shui Binger and her sisters, are all lustful."
"Fortunately, Liam's willpower is firm, and he values relationships more, otherwise!—the harem would explode."
Spirit Kite Douluo pondered for a moment, then replied:
"Tonight."
"Nana, Aunt will stay here tonight. Go find Liam and tell him that Aunt has something to discuss with him and ask him to come to my room. Whether I can win over Liam depends on Aunt's strength."
"Don't worry!"
"You helped Aunt, and Aunt will definitely strongly support you as the mistress of the harem in the future. Even if Qian Renxue or Pope Bibi Dong come, Aunt will firmly support you as the mistress of the harem!"
Hu Liena:???
Numb.
Completely numb.
Speaking of which.
Liam had gone to bed early here.
He had important things to do tomorrow.
Because the day after tomorrow, Hu Liena would be conferred as the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, Liam wanted to spend a day preparing a small amount of gunpowder and making firecrackers to give Hu Liena a surprise and also for good luck.
At this moment, the door opened, and Hu Liena quietly pushed it open and walked in.
"Haven't Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan returned yet?"
"Is Zhu Zhuqing not here either?"
Liam heard Hu Liena's words and replied calmly: "I have to go out early tomorrow morning, so I planned to rest early tonight."
"Oh, like that!"
Hu Liena felt a little regretful. It wasn't that she didn't want to help, but Liam didn't have time!
Just as Hu Liena was about to turn and leave, Liam pulled her back.
"Since you're already here."
"Have 'dinner' before you go!"
Hu Liena snuggled into Liam's arms and whispered: "Is this 'dinner' decent?"
Her exquisite face carried a charming and seductive look.
"Kung Pao Chicken!"
Liam said thoughtfully:
"The chef who makes this dish is quite decent. As for whether the chicken breast, cucumber, carrots, and peanuts are decent, I wouldn't know."
"Hmph."
Hu Liena pouted:
"Since that's the case, I'll try it first. If the ingredients aren't fresh, or not decent enough, I'll refuse to pay!"
"Let's change the dish!"
Liam hesitated and said:
"Just thinking about that dish scares me. Let's change to Dragon Emerging from the Sea, Braised Abalone with Pork Belly, or Daokou Roasted Chicken."
The late-night snack began.
...
Hu Liena ate halfway, then suddenly stopped and said: "Oh no!"
"I was so focused on staying for dinner that I actually forgot. I came to find you because I had something to tell you. Ling Yuan Auntie asked you to go over to her room, the one in the corner."
Liam was also dumbfounded:
"Now?"
"We're halfway through our late-night snack. How can I go see her looking like this?"
Hu Liena wiped her mouth and said:
"Go quickly!"
"Maybe, anyway, go take a look. If you can't get dinner there, come back and eat here."
"Huh?"
Liam's expression was a little strange. Good heavens! Are you really going to test a cadre with this?
This is bad.
They found my weakness.
Next door's next door.
Rongrong lay in bed, looking depressed:
"Zhu Zhuqing, didn't you say you'd secretly buff me? You're back now, so I can't show off anymore?"
"Is Liam drunk?"
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head slightly:
"No."
"Liam has things to do tomorrow and has to get up very early to go out. Maybe tomorrow night or the night after tomorrow!"
Rongrong nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and said: "Then let's wait another couple of days!"
Xiao Wu asked from the side:
"Zhu Zhuqing, what about me?"
"Should I still show off during morning practice tomorrow?"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xiao Wu and said helplessly: "Liam will probably go out before dawn. He won't even be at the training ground, so what are you going to show off?"
"You wait too!"
"Okay!"
Xiao Wu also nodded heavily.
On the other side.
Shui Binger and her sisters had been sent back to rest near the academy by Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
At this moment, a few of them weren't asleep yet and were sitting together discussing whether they had gained anything today.
Shui Binger looked at Xue Wu and asked:
"What do you think?"
Xue Wu pondered:
"We've gained something. After all, we've gotten familiar with Liam, and also with Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling."
"This way, we can go find them when we have nothing to do, or! If we can't live directly in Liam's house, we can rent a courtyard next door and stay there."
The sisters listened to Xue Wu's words and all nodded in agreement.
Shui Binger also nodded slightly and said:
"Hu Liena chatted with me for a bit today. They can actually sense our intentions."
The sisters were immediately dumbfounded upon hearing this.
"Ah?"
"We've been exposed already?"
"If we're exposed this quickly, they'll definitely guard against and reject us, so won't we have no chance?"
Shui Binger thought for a moment and explained:
"No."
"Hu Liena didn't mean that. She just chatted with me briefly. Regarding this! Her attitude is... it all depends on Liam's wishes."
