Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

She couldn't help but ask what had happened that made the other person start barking like a dog.

Xing responded quickly, summarizing everything that happened in the video in just a few words.

...It's not surprising that such people would appear in the company.

After all, the poor reputation of Interstellar Peace Corporation has been a long-standing issue.

It's good to teach Xing a lesson.

But Xi Lan still had a vague feeling that the entanglement between Scott and Xing wouldn't end anytime soon.

While she was still thinking, Huang Quan's voice rang out from beside her, which brought Xi Lan back to her senses. She then sheepishly put away her terminal.

"You like this?"

"No, I don't like this. It's just a video my child sent me. Maybe something happened, so he recorded a video for me."

Although I don't know what happened on the other side of the star in just a few days... but judging from the background, it should be on the other side of the Immortal Ship.

Upon hearing Xi Lan's answer, Huang Quan nodded as if he understood, "Is that so?"

She pursed her lips, as if she were thinking about something.

"Okay, let's put that aside for now and come with me for a walk."

Xi Lan squinted, but once again took Huang Quan's wrist, thinking about those debt collectors who often appeared on the list.

One more place is needed...

I've figured out most of the others, and I did see the creditors on the list... they seem quite immersed in their dream world.

She pretended nothing had happened, led Huang Quan to wander around somewhere else for a while, and after seeing that the work target was indeed active here, she nodded in satisfaction.

Even so, the two of them didn't manage to experience all of the golden moments.

Xi Lan held Huang Quan's hand, and the two even stood under the sign, showing their faces, allowing passersby to take such a funny photo of them as a souvenir.

It's a little ugly.

But deep down, I felt a little happy.

I shouldn't have these feelings...

She held the photo in her other hand, but her free hand unconsciously touched the corner of her mouth that was turning up.

Watching the fox lady's departing figure, Huang Quan, as if handling a treasure, put the photo into his pocket.

But that gaze, devoid of malice, remained fixed on her.

Fortunately, there was no one else around.

"The one following behind, can you come out now?"

She spoke coldly, her dangerous gaze naturally falling behind her.

Liu Ying's pupils contracted, and she frowned, sensing the dangerous aura. After hesitating for a long time, she was about to take a step.

As a result, the girl with black pigtails and red hair in front of her walked out more directly with light steps.

Only the fireflies, huddled at the back, remained silent.

She shouldn't have been discovered, right?

Chapter 187 Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone

"Oh dear, oh dear, let me see. Isn't this the sea patrol ranger who beat me up and still has such a cold face? Did you enjoy the show I put on for you?"

The girl with twin ponytails huddled close to Huang Quan, observing him as if he were some rare and exotic creature.

"I don't like it, you tavern geezer. Hanabi, why are you following us?"

She distanced herself from the girl named Hanabi more decisively, her brows furrowed slightly, clearly indicating that she was in a bad mood.

Huang Quan casually placed his hand on his weapon, since he couldn't be sure if the other party was hostile.

Or perhaps, are we now caught in a fantasy play woven by the other party?

"Hey, hey, don't use your weapons. I'm not planning on doing anything fun this time."

She narrowed her eyes, as if she had remembered something, and skipped around to maintain a safe distance from the woman in front of her who exuded danger.

"I just came to see what kind of little fox you can get along with peacefully. Hehe, his face isn't bad, it suits my taste."

Hanabi's eyes were fixed on the direction Yuran had left, but she kept glancing at Yomi beside her, as if observing the other's expression.

"It wouldn't be a bad idea for me to go and get to know them then~ Hehe~"

As she expected, Huang Quan's expression was indeed quite interesting after mentioning the little fox who had gone far away.

Huang Quan wanted to say something, but then he thought of his relationship with Xi Lan. Although they had only met a few times, he didn't want this flashy guy to get to know her.

But what is my relationship with Xi Lan?

What qualifications do they have?

While Huang Quan was deep in thought, Hanabi had a cheerful expression on her face, her eyes almost overflowing with joy.

The situation between the two of them is really interesting.

"Don't follow us again next time."

"If I find out again, I'll personally drag you out." After thinking for a while, Huang Quan still had a bit of a headache, and under Hanabi's teasing gaze, he could only leave behind these words, which could be considered a threat.

I have no interest in dealing with such a joyful fool as Hanahō.

This group of people are just crazy people who want to have fun. It's not surprising at all that they do things for the kind of fun they're looking for.

But why would this fool target Xilan again?

......

I still don't want this guy to know Xi Lan.

Huang Quan paused in his steps, and under Hanabi's slightly puzzled gaze, he abruptly turned a corner.

Before the smile on the twin-tailed woman's face had faded, her crimson eyes turned sharply towards Huang Quan with a menacing look.

"Don't do anything strange to her."

She lowered her eyes and finally gave the dishonest guy in front of her a warning.

Before Hanabi could react, Yomi headed straight for the direction Yuran had left.

Finally, he disappeared into the crowd.

"?"

Fireworks, who hadn't expected the other party to turn back, blinked blankly, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hahaha~ This is so funny, so funny~"

She was like a child who had found a favorite toy, and she was smiling very happily.

Fireworks' gaze lingered on the spot where Firefly was, but quickly shifted back.

With her hands behind her back, she skipped happily, humming an unknown tune, and left the place.

She needed to think carefully about how to properly get to know the little fox in front of that 'Fox Guardian'.

Ah, it would be so interesting to see her panicked and about to cry, wouldn't it?

Hanabi's eyes gleamed with a mischievous pleasure, her little head preoccupied with other thoughts.

In the end, only the firefly remained, cautiously emerging from its hiding place.

Maybe we shouldn't do this job.

This really puts firefly tracking technology to a very high level.

Especially since they are likely to discover it... no, it's more accurate to say that it has already been discovered.

Needless to say, it was also seen as a hidden source of amusement.

Although Liu Ying hadn't encountered many masked fools from the tavern, she had heard of the kind of people who would do anything for fun.

Why would someone like that want to get to know Xi Lan?

Liu Ying pursed her lips, clearly not wanting such a dangerous person to come into contact with Xi Lan.

But how can we stop it?

"It's really a... difficult thing."

If Kafka were here, she could definitely solve this problem easily.

If you were to tell Silver Wolf, he'd just be a bystander, and might even suggest that Firefly get involved too.

What a complicated relationship.

She lowered her head slightly, looked at the ground, and finally made up her mind.

"Since things have come to this, let's go get some oak cupcakes first."

Liu Ying nodded very seriously at this matter, and even her steps became much lighter.

It seems like she truly loves oak cake.

--------

As if sensing something, Xi Lan turned her head slightly, looking in the direction she had left, and for some reason, had a bad feeling.

It felt like she was being watched by someone, which made her tail start to bristle.

She could only sit to one side, temporarily halting her progress, and sit on the other chair, patiently combing her tail, which was inexplicably sticking out.

I probably haven't had time to take good care of my tail lately, so it might not feel as comfortable to touch as before.

"I really need to find some time to properly groom this mess..."

She muttered quietly.

Before leaving, Ms. Emerald said she was going to take care of her tail, but after massaging it, she ended up going somewhere else.
