Belfast, who had already packed up, gestured to the person at the door to come in.

Sirius walked in and bowed respectfully, whispering, "Master, Miss Bronya, Miss Seele, and Miss Cocolia have arrived. Miss Cocolia is currently receiving treatment, while Miss Bronya and Miss Seele are in the reception room."

When they returned yesterday, Jiang Lianqiu gave the three of them permission to use the pioneering beacon before leaving.

Belfast seized the opportunity to take his leave, and when he brushed past Sirius before leaving, Sirius wrinkled his nose.

A few minutes later, when Jiang Lianqiu brought Sirius to the reception room, he found that in addition to Bronya and Seele, there were several unexpected people here.

Ji Zi, Ester, Ting Yun and Vivian.

Jizi and Ester sat on one side, Tingyun and Vivian sat on one side, and Bronya and Seele sat on the other corner.

Of the people from Victoria Housekeeping, except for Ellen who should be working the morning class, the remaining three, led by Lekaan, were standing behind Vivian.

"My dear husband!"

As soon as she entered the reception room, Vivian's face lit up as expected.

Estelle instantly revealed a funny smile: "Oh my, that's really affectionate, Vivian."

Completely ignoring Ester's teasing, Vivian's pointed ears shone a cherry-red color with joy. Her long black silk legs rubbed against each other impatiently under her skirt. She waved at Jiang Lianqiu, "Husband, come sit next to Vivian!"

During the ceremony at Victoria's housekeeping, Jiang Lianqiu took the initiative to sit next to Vivian. The girl immediately leaned over affectionately, completely ignoring the embarrassed Bronya next to her and Seele who started rubbing her arms.

"You guys are really popular."

Xier pouted and snorted with a sour look on her face.

"Before you came, this Vivian kept talking about you. It was so annoying!"

"Seele." Bronya scolded lightly, causing Seele to hug her chest and turn her head away and hum.

"So, can anyone explain the current situation to me?" Jiang Lianqiu leaned back on the sofa, watching the three-party meeting in front of him.

"Your Excellency may not know this." Tingyun smiled and unfolded his folding fan. "Yesterday, Miss Jizi contacted Miss Ester, hoping to use Miss Ester's resources to help rebuild Beloberg."

"Ms. Ester isn't a merchant, after all. So since she found me, I can't return to the Minghuo Chamber of Commerce now. So I can only bring Ms. Vivian along."

After being arranged by Fu Xuan to stay with Jiang Lianqiu to ensure his safety, Tingyun followed Jiang Lianqiu to the star port.

Considering her identity, Jiang Lianqiu asked Tingyun to help guide Vivian. Now it seems that the two of them get along quite well.

"I suggest that Silver Crown Star Ring's first major undertaking in the universe be assisting Beloberg with his reconstruction. As for Beloberg's debt to the company, I also believe that when the company's representatives come knocking, Miss Vivian can purchase the company's debt. This will satisfy the company by converting the debt into equity, while also preventing Beloberg from being pressed for repayment. Furthermore, Silver Crown Star Ring will benefit even more from Beloberg's reconstruction and development."

"That earth marrow is a hot commodity in the galaxy. There aren't many planets that can produce it. You can rest assured, benefactor. You won't suffer any loss. It's a win-win for all three parties."

Jiang Lianqiu didn't expect Tingyun to actually orchestrate this. He exclaimed in amazement and asked, "Do we have that many credit points?"

"I do!" Estelle smiled and pulled out a handful of gold cards. "We've already agreed on this. I'm now a major shareholder of Silver Crown Star Ring! I'm investing in you with my own capital. Lianqiu, you don't mind, do you?"

"Making money is not shameful..."

Weiweian asked Jiang Lianqiu worriedly, "My dear husband, you won't be angry that Weiweian made the decision on this matter without your permission, right?"

"Why should I be angry? The Star Ring is in your hands. You can handle it with full authority. You don't need to ask me about this matter in the future."

The happiness of being completely trusted made Vivian want to pounce on Jiang Lianqiu right now.

Damn it, why isn't it evening yet? Damn it, why did those two guys get there first yesterday? Vivian gritted her teeth secretly.

Upon learning that Ester was already a member of the Silver Crown Star Ring, Jiang Lianqiu extended his hand to her and said, "So, we are a family from now on?"

"Yeah, we're all family." Ester's smile became even more ridiculous. "Although I'm not short of money, I don't have much ability to make money. Now someone is taking me along, and I can't wait to go home and slap Old Deng in the face!"

After shaking hands with Ester and letting go, Jiang Lianqiu noticed that Ester was secretly scratching his palm with her fingers.

When I looked at him, there was nothing unusual on the pink-haired face.

Jiang Lianqiu: “…”

He was seduced in front of his wife (Vivian)?

This is really exciting.

After coughing, Jiang Lianqiu praised Bronya, "I didn't expect you to be such a capable Great Guardian. You actually solved a big problem right now."

"It's actually Miss Himeko's work," Bronya explained, shaking her head, not taking any credit. "I looked up the old files my mother mentioned, and asked Miss March and the others about the company. The more I listened, the more worried I became. So I asked Miss Himeko to introduce me to other forces in the universe, hoping to see if there's any trustworthy party that could help buy out the company's debt."

"Ms. Jizi then helped contact Ms. Ester, and finally, with her help, we reached an agreement with Ms. Vivian."

Bronya let out a breath and smiled with relief.

"Given the relationship between Miss Vivian and Lian Qiu, I think we can completely relax this time and no longer have to worry about Beloberg becoming a slave to the company because of debt."

"Please rest assured, we will never let you suffer any loss! But if you want to get your money back, Lianqiu, it will take some time..."

Chapter 278: Prepare to Taste Duck

For Bronya and Seele, who have been trapped in Beloberg since childhood, the world outside the starry sky is no different from other universes.

They are all foreign lands that were unimaginable in the past.

Therefore, the two of them did not show much surprise about coming directly to another universe.

Especially now, after her creditor changed from that company that sounded like it wanted to eat people to Jiang Lianqiu, Bronya felt a little more familiar with this exotic starry sky.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to make money for me."

Seeing Jiang Lianqiu ready to lie down and collect the money, Xier sighed again: "This feeling is really uncomfortable. I owe someone a huge debt for no reason."

"Have some respect, I'll be your creditor soon."

Jiang Lianqiu stared at her with his eyes slanted, and Xier's mouth twitched again.

Damn it, I really want to pick a fight with someone.

It’s decided. Let’s beat up Sambo when we get back!

"Lian Qiu, what's going on with mother..."

"Don't worry, she will be fine here." Jiang Lianqiu waved his hand. "You can come over anytime now. Isn't it easy to see her if you want to?"

Can you come over anytime...?

Thinking of this, Bronya smiled gently.

At this time, Lina brought Kelin to serve tea to everyone. Estelle looked at Victoria Housekeeping with some envy: "16 Lianqiu Lianqiu, since we are all family, can Victoria Housekeeping be given to me?"

"You're still short of servants?" Jiang Lianqiu was puzzled. "With your status, how many servants can you have?"

"But there are no others like them!"

Ester actually started to act coquettishly.

"I'm sorry, but I really like Lekaan and the others, and I won't give them up."

Jiang Lianqiu shook his head and refused.

"It is a great honor for Victoria Housekeeping to receive your approval, Master."

Lekaan bowed to take the credit and saluted gracefully.

"Stingy!" Estelle rolled her tongue, expressing her dissatisfaction in a strange voice. "How about a discount? I don't want it all, can you give me that Ellen? I'm so greedy for her tail! There are so many races in the universe, but I've never seen one with a shark tail!"

"Round sharks are even more unacceptable!" Jiang Lianqiu objected immediately.

"You like her tail too?"

"I also like the look of disgust on her face when she's reluctant to call me master. It's so fun to tease her."

"Ah! So you like this too?"

"……also?"

This conversation between the two silenced everyone on the spot, and Lekaan began to seriously consider in his heart whether he should correct Ellen's attitude.

If I don’t correct it, it goes against his service philosophy. If I correct it... what if the owner seems to like it this way?

Suddenly, Lekaan thought of the scenes after they first met Jiang Lianqiu.

It seemed that at that time, the master showed a different attitude towards Ailian.

Hiss... Could it be that the master's target was Ellen from the very beginning, and they were all just incidental?

After realizing that he seemed to have been caught in the act, the loyal wolf dog's ears, which had been erected, drooped weakly, and his tail also drooped, and he was greatly shocked.

……Dividing line……

A few days flew by.

These days, Cocolia is accompanied by Bronya to the star port for recuperation every day.

The new Grand Guardian offered to include the mother's medical expenses in the bill, but Jiang Lianqiu waived it with a wave of his hand.

Before I knew it, it was the last day of the treatment.

"Tomorrow is the ceremony for my official succession to the Grand Guardian. Lianqiu, can you come and participate?"

In a tea room, Bronya asked with a hint of anticipation, her back straight and legs together.

Compared to her, Xier next to her really didn't sit properly.

"No problem." Jiang Lianqiu nodded. "By the way, aren't you busy today?"

Previously, after Bronya brought Cocolia to the star port, they had to go back to deal with heavy work after not staying there for long. But today, she stayed with Seele.

"Today is the day Mother recovers," Bronya explained. "And tomorrow is the succession ceremony. All the pressing tasks have been completed over the past few days. Pella, my intelligence officer, suggested that I rest well for the day before the ceremony tomorrow and officially resume work the day after tomorrow."

"That little round face?"

This sentence made Bronya laugh out loud.

Thinking of Pera's round face, Bronya said strangely, "Lianqiu, you should have never seen Pera, right?"

No, no, no, he was too familiar with the woman with shrimp thread on her black stockings.

Among the people I know so far, only one and a half wear black stockings and shrimp thread.

One is Pera, and the other half is Yixuan - Master Yixuan's black shrimp thread pattern is only shown to him in the bed, and he can't see it on weekdays.

"Well, I am your creditor after all, so I have to understand it."

"Not yet." Xi'er said faintly, "That person from the company hasn't come yet. Tsk, it would be great if he never came."

"Seele, you can't default on your debt." Bronya retorted, shaking her head.

"You're just too honest." Xi'er muttered, glaring at Jiang Lianqiu again, "You'll be completely deceived sooner or later."

"I say, Feitouman, there should be no conflicts between us, right?" Jiang Lianqiu always felt that Xier's attitude was weird these days.

"Who's the Feitouman? If you want to fight, just say so!" Xier slapped the armrest of the sofa angrily. "Don't think I don't know what this word means now!"

"Seele, no—" Bronya said hurriedly.

"I told you you're just too honest!" Xi'er gritted her teeth in frustration, then finally gave up and said, "Forget it, I don't care. I don't care why you always sit by the window alone and stare blankly. I try to persuade you but you don't listen! I ask you to take the initiative but you back off. It's so infuriating to see you look so stupid!"

After saying that, Xier stood up and left the tea room.

Bronya's face flushed instantly, and she couldn't hide the panic in her eyes.

After Seele left, Bronya hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Lianqiu. Seele isn't upset with you, she's mad at me..."

Jiang Lianqiu said "Oh——"

"Do you often sit by the window alone and daydream?"

"Wu-I...I just..."

Bronya's eyes were filled with panic as she explained hurriedly:

"I'm not used to handling the duties of a Grand Guardian... Because of this incident, the people of Krippenburg have heard Xier and I arguing quite a bit..."

"Are you still arguing?" Jiang Lianqiu's curiosity was piqued, and he leaned forward with a smile, "What's the matter? Tell me."

Bronya's face was extremely stiff, but she was also relieved that the topic had been successfully changed. After hesitating for a long time, she finally said seriously with a stern face: "Seele, if you do this again, I will, in the name of the Great Guardian, stab the muzzle of a gun into your nostrils!"

"That's what I meant..."

Jiang Lianqiu muttered.

Bronya became more curious: "Do you know Lian Qiu?"

She seemed to have misunderstood something and her face turned red again.
