Bad women always look at me

She left a light kiss on Xilan's forehead, as if giving a reward to the children in the welfare home.

"How could I abandon you, little one? I'm the only one you can trust, right? I won't abandon you like those people."

The distance between the two of them was so close that Xi Lan could clearly smell the unique fragrance of Ms. Jade.

It's dangerous, but it makes people want to continue indulging in it.

But Xilan knew that the difference between Feicui and Kafka was that when Xilan longed not to abandon her, only Feicui gave a promise.

She did not resist, but let the mature and elegant woman in front of her fiddle with the collar around her neck.

Jade just chuckled, then slowly spoke again: "But, the premise that I won't abandon you is that you will never betray me, do you understand, child?"

"I understand, Ms. Emerald..."

When Xi Lan heard this promise, she knew that Ms. Jade was many times more cunning than eight hundred of her.

But I still feel satisfied because of these understatements, even these words that are not really sincere.

Ah, Ms. Emerald is such a nice person.

At this time, the little fox, who had no idea of ​​the other party's nature, thought so too naively.

Chapter 19: Little Rich Woman?

However, Ms. Jade said that she would be leaving in a few days, and Xi Lan had not yet figured out how to tell Estelle.

It's really hard for this little fox to do this kind of thing...

Although I have thought about leaving without notifying you, is this situation exactly the same as Kafka and the others?

No matter what, Xi Lan would never become such an adult.

Yes, Ms. Emerald is correct.

Xi Lan nodded seriously, seemingly unaware that the status in her heart that was previously declared by Kafka had been quietly invaded bit by bit by a certain lady.

Of course, Xi Lan, who was now thinking about how to convince her friends to leave, obviously didn't care about this kind of thing.

But even though he knew it now, the little fox just kept it hidden in his heart with mixed feelings.

In the following few days, for some reason, Esda did not come to look for Xilan, and she did not know how to contact her...she could only wait for her anxiously every day.

Maybe he was educated by his family?

Besides that, Xi Lan couldn't think of any reason why Estelle wouldn't come to play with her.

In a rare opportunity, the teacher who taught her fighting skills hit her on the calf with a ruler.

"hiss.."

The pain from her leg forced Xi Lan to come back to her senses. She looked at the instructor in front of her and forced herself to swallow her cry of pain.

"If this was a real battle, you would have died countless times."

"Do you think that combat is all turn-based?"

"Do you think that in combat the enemy will wait until you have finished attacking before attacking?"

The instructor was educating the little guy in front of him with a look of disappointment, but the ruler in his hand never fell.

"You have been distracted by this matter today. Forget it, go back and have a rest. Don't do this again next time." The instructor seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he wanted to say something harsh to teach the little guy in front of him a lesson.

Finally, he waved his hand and let her go back and have a good rest.

The remaining time is Xilan's free time.

".....Thank you, instructor!"

After simply expressing his thanks, the little fox absentmindedly prepared to return to his room.

The employees of the Strategic Investment Department who accompanied Ms. Feicui on the business trip were naturally familiar with Xi Lan, who was placed by her superiors by their side.

They also didn't quite understand why Lady Emerald wanted to raise the cubs abandoned by the Star Core Hunters.

But maybe it was something different about the other person that attracted Ms. Emerald?

Alas, maybe the people above are different from these employees...

The employees around them looked at the little fox that was almost subconsciously walking around them. Someone brave enough muttered, "Ah... I really want to touch the fox's tail. It even looks like this little guy's tail is so nice to touch."

Then his mouth was covered by the colleague next to him.

"Are you crazy? The little fox is wearing a collar representing Ms. Emerald. Do you still want to work here?"

The female employee could only watch the furry tail moving away from her and let out a helpless sigh.

"I know. I finally got a job in the company. Although I often work overtime, the salary is not bad... I still want to stay here."

Alas, workers are born to be oxen and horses.

Both sides were silent for a while, and sighed silently in their hearts at the same time. The company employees who had taken a break in the middle of the meeting left with sighs.

Xi Lan, who had no idea what was going on, subconsciously touched her tail.

"I always feel like someone is watching me..."

But when I turned around, all I saw were the employees leaving in a hurry.

....Everyone is really weird.

After muttering to herself for a while, Xi Lan did not stop walking back and continued walking towards her room.

She was still thinking about how to tell her good friend Esta that she was leaving.

She didn't want to see Estelle sad.

I also don't want to see her look like she's about to cry.

Even though when we are together normally, the other person often pretends to cry to deceive himself.

But no matter whether it is true or false, Xilan will try her best to coax Esther.

Just when she was daydreaming, her purple eyes saw the familiar pink-haired ball lingering at her door.

He looked completely conflicted.

Xi Lan blinked, and although she didn't quite understand what was going on, she still wagged her tail, quickened her pace, and quickly came to Estelle.

"Ms. Ester? Why are you here at this hour?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, she saw that the pink-haired ball looked like it had done something guilty. Even Xi Lan noticed that she subconsciously shuddered.

He looks a little guilty.

"Of course, no, can't I come to you if there's nothing else?"

Xi Lan, who was skillfully stroking Estelle's hair, raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "What do you want to talk to me about? As it happens, I have something too... well, I wanted to tell you."

Let's just pretend nothing happened and ask the other party what happened.

As for Esta, she looked around cautiously, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated: "Well... let's go in and talk. I always feel a little uncomfortable..."

Then the next second, he unilaterally dragged Xi Lan into the room without any courtesy.

"I'm leaving here, Lan."

As the owner of the room, Xi Lan just closed the door and turned around to see Esther looking aggrieved. The words she said surprised Xi Lan.

"They wouldn't let me out, so I ran out secretly to tell you this..."

"Why don't you just come home with me? I can support you! Even if all my pocket money is taken away!"

Ester grabbed Xilan's wrist tightly, showing a rare strong look.

The little fox, who was a human at the time, shook his tail, and even a trace of confusion and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

At the same time, an embarrassment appeared on her face, and she slowly spoke under the expectant gaze of the pink-haired ball.

"But...Esther, I can't go with you..."

She pursed her lips, and under the other person's gaze, she continued:

"After a while...I will also leave here with Ms. Emerald."

Chapter 20: What are the mature bad adults thinking?

Standing by the window, the pair of light purple eyes just quietly looked at the scene in the Milky Way that would shock people no matter how many times they saw it.

It made Xi Lan feel that she was nothing more than a tiny existence in the Milky Way.

....Oh, let’s not think about these things.

She still sighed subtly, but turned her head and looked in the direction of leaving.

Asta looked very sad when she left.

But she really couldn't leave with Esther... After all, Ms. Emerald still had a lot of debts to pay.

We can't really let Estelle's family support her...it's a bit embarrassing.

Xi Lan, who still had some conscience as a child, lay by the window, staring at the scenery of the Milky Way in a daze.

But at that time, in order to coax Esther and prevent her from looking like she was about to cry, Xilan finally chose to make a pinky promise and made an agreement with each other.

"I'll come find you, Estelle."

Xi Lan rarely distanced herself from the pink-haired girl, and pressed her forehead against hers, with a serious look on her face: "Don't forget me."

The fox ears moved, as if it heard some sound, and came back to its senses from its thoughts.

Turning around, she saw Jade standing next to her, still looking elegant.

"Thinking about your little friend?"

"....Yes, a little bit...Ms. Emerald, will we come back here later?"

Xi Lan scratched her cheek a little embarrassedly, but she couldn't resist her curiosity and asked about it bravely.

Seeing the little guy's look, Jade pretended to think for a moment, and looking at the little fox's expectant expression, she decided not to continue teasing him.

"I don't know either. After all, no one knows where we will arrive next time."

Feicui subconsciously placed her hands on Xilan's little head and rubbed it.

"But if your subsequent performance is better than I expected, I will consider giving you a reward, okay?"

Then, Xi Lan's eyes lit up and she looked like she would try her best, which made Feicui even more curious about how this little guy would please her in the future.

However, as a senior executive of the [Strategic Investment Department], Feicui does not have much time to rest, after all, he has a lot of work to do.

After chatting with Xi Lan casually for a few words, this mature and powerful woman left. It seemed that she was going to prepare to reminisce about something.

so busy.

Xi Lan lowered her head and looked at her somewhat tender hands.

I also want to do something to help Ms. Jade.

It would be great if I could grow up faster. It would be great if I could grow up to be as tall as those busy older brothers and sisters.

If that's the case, can we help Ms. Jade?

"I'm telling you, I drink milk every night now, and I'll be taller than you soon!"

The words that Esta had said to her during the chat suddenly came to her mind.

Will drinking milk make you taller?
