god of tomorrow

"puff---"

Lily spat out a mouthful of black tea and coughed repeatedly. She grabbed a silk handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose while turning her head to look at the corridor outside the door.

Gao Wen peered through the door.

Lily was stunned. What did it mean to bring him back? Was he going to keep him overnight?

"Gao Wen, stop looking and come over here quickly, let me introduce you."

Herwi waved to Gawain and waited for him to come closer before explaining, "Lily usually sprays water incredibly fiercely, but she's not performing well because she's sick. Otherwise, she could really spray two meters."

Who told you to say that? Do you know how terrible the lines are? x2

Gawain was just complaining and didn't think too much about it, but Lily was thinking far too much. The images of the night raid came in frame by frame, as if they were engraved into the depths of her soul. The more she tried not to think about it, the clearer the images became.

Fortunately, Gao Wen was sleeping like a log and knew nothing at the time, otherwise she would have no face to live and might as well have died.

Even so, Lily's face was still visibly flushed. Just one glance at Gawain made her instinctively squeeze her legs together, as if she were still sitting on Gawain's face.

"Hey, Lily, why is your face so red?"

Herwi stepped forward and touched Lily's forehead, gasping, "It's so hot. Did you eat something weird again?"

If you put it that way, then her illness really is caused by what she eats!

From his vantage point, Gawain saw the little black witch clearly for the first time: long, straight black hair, pale skin, confident demeanor, elegant and quiet, with an exquisitely beautiful face. She fit the description of a vampire—no, she fit his deep-seated stereotype of a dark noble.

Looks really matter. Only the ugly are called vampires, while the good-looking are all called nobility of the night.

Similarly, good-looking people are called "warm men," while ugly people are called "fiery goblins." Good-looking people are called "foodies," while ugly people are called "gluttonous goblins."

What? Your prince is 1.9 meters tall?

Ha, fiery gluttonous troll!

Because Lily is pretty, and the image of a long-haired, black-haired senior is appealing, plus she's a fan of black stockings, Gawain immediately breathed a sigh of relief. That night wasn't a bad deal; being humiliated by a senior like that little black witch, he'd be happy to drive luxury cars and live in mansions in the future!

Herwi checked and confirmed that Lily's condition had not worsened. She was relieved to see that Gawain had seen her spraying water and that she had blushed with embarrassment.

No problem. Gawain will become Lily's knight. With her by his side to assist him, he'll have to spray water on her face sooner or later. He'll get used to it and won't blush anymore.

"Lily, after my persuasion, Gawain has agreed to be your knight. The contract is over there, sign it now."

When did I agree? x2

Lily doesn't want to see Gao Wen right now; she just wants some peace and quiet. Gao Wen is still waiting to be sold, hoping to make a fortune after the company goes public. Neither party has any intention of signing a contract.

Hervy wasn't going to indulge them; whether Lily and Gawain agreed with her decisions was irrelevant.

Soon, she pulled out the Knights' Contract and forcibly pressed Lily's fingerprint onto it.

When they reached Gawain, the resistance was exceptionally fierce.

"You'd better just give in to me... Sister Lily, this is a girls' dormitory. If you dare to scream your lungs out, Lily will take off her clothes and cry. Who do you think everyone will believe then?" Herwi cornered Gawain against the wall and pinned him down with her hands.

Lily wouldn't dare, please, please let Lily go!

Lily was numb, unable to muster any strength. She covered her face with a handkerchief, becoming indifferent to the world, and was forced into a state of emotional stability.

I'm so tired, that's enough!

"Signing a contract is fine, but we need to make things clear. For example, where is the fiefdom? And what about the salary and benefits? If I achieve excellent results in the Knights Ranking Tournament, will the law apply, and will my salary and vacation be three to five times that of an ordinary knight?"

Gao Wen refused to comply unless he received more money: "Also, how much financial aid can you provide me each month during my university years?"

“That makes sense. There’s still the penalty for breach of contract that hasn’t been written in. Hmm… let’s set it at 1 billion.” Hervi is always good at grasping the key points.

"Who asked you that!"

"What are you afraid of? With me here, would Lily ever mistreat you?"

"..."

That's true, she's never treated me badly.

After some haggling, Gawain secured top-tier knight treatment, with his salary being five times that of an ordinary knight, regardless of his performance in the knight ranking tournament.

In addition, there is a signing fee of 800 million, and starting from May, there will be a monthly scholarship of 200 million, which will be paid as usual during winter and summer vacations.

All told, Lily will have to pay Gao Wen 2400 million this year, plus bonuses during holidays, making her a true little rich woman.

The penalty for breach of contract was outrageous—a full ten small goals! It exhausted Gao Wen; he couldn't have paid that much in one night.

"Give me the contract, let's sign it now!"

Gawain readily agreed not only because of the money, nor because of Hervy's sincerity, but primarily because of the fiefdom.

Lily's fiefdom is located in the Emerald Province!

According to Gao Wen's admission records, his ancestral home is Emerald Province. As far as he knows, the Fein family, known as the Star Family, is currently based in Emerald Province.

Border provinces are far from the capital and home to many adventurers and troublemakers. They are not only suitable for doing quests, but also for finding out the names of your rivals. It's a win-win situation and couldn't be more perfect.

As for the fact that Lily and Herve's ancestral home was in the Bauhinia Province, but their fiefdom was in the Emerald Province, Gawain couldn't care less about that.

"Hahaha, from today onwards, Gao Wen, you belong to my... sister!"

Hervy, holding the contract in one hand and with the other on her hip, laughed loudly: "It's all in black and white, a twenty-year labor contract. Let's see how Dawn can fight me now. What is Gauss? Go eat Lily's farts!"

Gawain: Forget about eating farts. Trust me, Gauss isn't that kind of person, and neither is your sister.

Lily: Who is Gauss? A new character has appeared?

"Wait a moment!"

Lily spoke weakly, "Hervy, explain yourself clearly. What exactly happened? Why did you suddenly bring Gawain here? Is it related to Dawn?"

"It's nothing. Dawn recommended a knight to you named Gauss. He sounds unreliable. I was afraid you'd get delirious from the fever, so I signed Gawain for you in advance."

Herwi brushed it off, grabbed Gawain's arm, and led him to her bedroom.

pat!

The door was locked from the inside.

Chapter 80 The Gaze of the Sun God

Five minutes later, Hervy walked out of the bedroom looking refreshed, grabbed Gao Wen's arm, and personally escorted him out of the girls' dormitory.

The girls' dormitory area may seem warm and cozy, but it's all an illusion. Behind the scenes, there's a lot of simmering tension and a large number of senior girls who have drifted away from the wetland. If she doesn't keep a close eye on her, the knight Gawain that Lily managed to recruit will be lost for at least ten days to half a month before he can finally escape.

It was half an hour later when Hervy returned to her dormitory.

She and Gao Wen went to the nearest school bank and transferred 1000 million yuan, which was for signing fees and May's student grants.

"What did you do with Gawain in the bedroom just now?" Lily put down her teacup warily, wanting Hervy to explain herself.

At this moment, she was extremely weak. Not only were her magic circuits collapsing and being rebuilt, but her flesh and blood were also being reshaped. Her strength had dropped to zero, and she could not hear what Hervy and Gawain were doing in the room.

"What kind of question is that? What can you do in five minutes?"

"..."

You can get a lot done in five minutes!

s(?￣︿￣)σ~?~?(ˉへ￣#)

The sisters stared at each other, their eyes wide open. Because Lily was weak, she quickly lost the stare contest and couldn't win against Hervy.

"Even if you're physically strong, you can't glare at me."

Herwi was triumphant and still refused to reveal what she and Gawain had done in the bedroom.

Actually, he didn't do anything. He just gave Gawain a couple of warnings, became Lily's knight, and was told to respect Lily from now on, uphold his duty as a knight, and never draw his greatsword at the lord, nor his short sword.

It's all for Lily's own good!

Some people said things that were good for Gawain, such as Dawn still having ulterior motives, and told Gawain to be careful lately and not to get cornered by Dawn and Gauss.

Although it's unlikely, and Dawn isn't that kind of person, it's always good to be cautious.

Then there's the old saying again: don't leave the school gate unless necessary. For example, today, Gao Wen was only focused on eating at the nightclub and didn't get involved with any shady women, which made Hervy Dai Lili happy. But the fact that Gao Wen only carried Blue Hair with him made Hervy Dai Lili very unhappy.

Hill's background is powerful, but not enough to intimidate the local bully, Vansen. If she hadn't followed the scent to his door tonight, Gawain's fate would have been uncertain.

Even if Hill and his men had laid an ambush and successfully killed Van Sen, the $1000 million would still be credited to him.

Is that correct?

That's not right! Money should be earned by family members!

To be fair, these things could have been said on the way, but Herwi still brought Gawain into the bedroom. She hadn't faced her own feelings yet, but she respected them and subconsciously began to guard against fire, theft, and her best friend.

"Lily isn't saying anything, she's definitely thinking about something lewd. I despise you."

"I just want to remind you that a girl's bedroom is a private place and shouldn't be used casually..."

"I packed it in advance."

You know you need to maintain your image, yet you still say you don't like him!

Lily felt contempt. Some people are just stubborn. Just thinking about Gawain made her feel like there was a face breathing under her butt. She decisively ended the conversation while keeping her legs tightly closed: "Answer my question. What's the situation between Dawn and Gauss?"

"Nothing's wrong!"

"..." x2

Their eyes met again. Because Lily looked serious, Hervy, feeling guilty, quickly backed down. Thinking that what was done was done, she told the truth.

“Dawn is a stubborn man; he won’t give up easily. And there must be a reason why he insists Gauss is better. Once I’m healed, I’ll meet with Gauss…”

"Can't!"

"Don't worry, I know you like Gao Wen, I won't break you two up."

Lily, without any expression, revealed Hervy's selfish motives, prioritizing the bigger picture: "I will find a suitable reason to decline, so as not to put Dawn in a difficult position."

Hervy had her own selfish motives, and so did Lily. She highly recognized Gawain's talent, and the mobile blood pack was crucial. There would be many night raids in the future, so taking it to the fiefdom was the right thing to do.

He secretly vowed that if he ever secretly borrowed blood again, he would never make such a fool of himself as last time.

You can't fall into the same pit three times in a row, can you?

Things don't happen more than three times, impossible, absolutely impossible.JPG

"Nonsense! Gao Wen is clearly superior!"
