Guild Boss's Ambition

So it was because of this reason...

I looked at Lian'er who handed the panties back to me, and tried my best to keep calm.

"Don't get angry, it'll scare her."

"It's just a fresh pancake that was stolen without anyone noticing. It's no big deal."

"Besides, I was wearing a long skirt today, so no one should have seen the scenery below."

I calmly took the panties and put them back on right away.

I gently reminded her, "Don't steal other people's personal belongings in the stone house. If something important suddenly disappears, the person involved will be troubled by it."

She didn't respond to me, but just stared at me blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

It seems that I must teach her sign language as soon as possible in the future.

But before teaching sign language, there are obviously other more pressing things to do.

The first thing is to wash Lian'er's body!

I don't know how long she has not taken a shower. The dust on her body is so thick that you can easily rub out black pills. Whether for personal hygiene or appearance, she always has to wash her body thoroughly. Then I can introduce her to President Ehard and the others, so that they can have a better impression of Lian'er who has just arrived.

The staff dormitory that Sister Menger arranged for me was the highest-end one, and the room came with a spacious bathroom.

And because it was already winter and the temperature was only around three degrees, I boiled a pool of hot water for Lian'er.

"Lian'er, I've boiled some water for you, come and take a bath──"

I took her to the bathroom and said with a smile, "It's very cold in winter, so you should take a hot bath as soon as possible. I will prepare a set of fragrant new clothes for you. Do you like to wear a skirt or pants? If you like a skirt, you should nod your head, and if you like pants, you should shake your head."

She shook her head.

"So you like pants? Too bad I don't have many of them."

"But girls who like to wear pants must be good kids, so give her one!"

I smiled and walked out, leaving her alone in the bathroom.

Five minutes later, I had prepared a change of clothes for her, which included a cotton top, a pair of cotton trousers, a rabbit fur jacket and a brand new set of underwear - I don't have the weird habit of giving my own underwear to other people!

Then I saw Lian'er standing silently at the bathroom door.

I looked at her and she looked at me.

I thought about it and started looking for the reason behind it: "Is the hot water too hot?"

She shook her head.

"Don't you like taking a bath?"

She hesitated and shook her head again.

“Could it be…?”

I asked in disbelief, "Don't you know how to do it?"

She nodded pathetically, with an expression of fear of being blamed on her face.

"..."

I was silent for a moment, then showed a relaxed and gentle smile: "Then let me help you wash your body! If you don't understand, then you should take this opportunity to remember it well! After all, our Stone House is a place for business. If you run around the guild dirty and are seen by President Ehard, you will definitely be scolded."

After saying that, I started to help her take off her clothes.

At this moment, I remembered my previous experience of giving Sang Lan a bath, and suddenly I no longer felt awkward or guilty about our intimate encounter. My movements became quick and decisive, and I began to teach Xiao Lian how to take a bath in a serious manner.

The process of giving Xiaolian a bath is arduous.

Her long gray hair was tangled like a fishnet due to lack of proper care for a long time. It took me a lot of effort to comb it a little smoother. But I still have to take her to the barber shop tomorrow to let the older sisters trim her hair. Before that, I have to use scissors to trim her forehead hair, otherwise Xiaolian's eyes will be completely covered.

Then he had to wash away all the dirt on her body.

The clean water in the pool turned black after washing.

This forced me to change the hot water again and again on the spot.

Unlike the Ulan of the past, Lian'er did not playfully push water for me, nor did she scream and shout because of the discomfort of shampoo getting into her eyes while washing her hair. She just sat obediently in the sink, quietly letting me do whatever I wanted, as if she had long been accustomed to being manipulated by others and had acquiesced to the fact that she deserved to be manipulated.

It makes me feel a little sad just looking at it.

But I insist on maintaining a happy smile.

Use one smile to bring more smiles.

I tried to hum that cheerful bathing song to entertain each other's ears──

I wiped her body as if I were wiping my own body──

She seems indifferent, but I believe that dripping water will eventually wear away a stone. I must use my sincerity to eliminate suspicion, indifference and numbness.

I looked at the silent girl in the pool, memorizing her appearance carefully.

Grey naturally curly long hair...

Small and exquisite ears...

Pointed and cold nose...

Silent and reserved gaze...

A pair of lips that have never spoken...

A thin but strong figure...

I wiped the water off her body, put on warm human clothes, and combed out her three thousand strands of troubles.

If God sent me into this world it must be for a special reason.

Then, this girl with a strange background should be considered one of them.

I kissed her forehead, as if I was kissing myself. I began to realize that there was a terrible devil in my subconscious mind. At the same time, my reason and emotions were unanimous in letting the devil go crazy: "Lian'er, believe me, I will treat you well."

The girl looked at me puzzledly.

She seemed unable to read my expression at this moment.

I didn't let her read my expression.

I just smiled in a friendly way and gave her what I thought was the best thing for her: "I will take you to see someone later. If she wants to live in the stone house, she must know this person and let this person know you."

6. ViVi (Erhard)

(Mener-Ehard)

After shopping with Xiao Lan, I returned to my office to work.

In fact, in terms of the Midwinter Arena competition, besides Bai Ye, I have another good candidate in mind. Although her personality is as unpredictable as Bai Ye's, her combat ability is undoubtedly the most outstanding in our guild.

And five months ago, after she took on a gold-level mission, she suddenly disappeared without a trace.

I almost thought that she had died somewhere unfortunately.

But she suddenly reappeared in front of us today and handed over her mission results to Hai Laoyao.

In order to prevent her from going crazy and disappearing again, I immediately kept her.

At this time, she was sitting in front of me.

Do not……

It would be more accurate to say that they were sitting in front of me rather than that she was sitting in front of me.

Although her true form was just one person, she managed to use illusion to split herself into two.

Both figures were wearing funny clown costumes designed by herself. The colorful and loose clothes gave people a vivid visual effect of absurdity and joy. As long as she walked on the street, she could immediately attract everyone's attention. Because it was not the real performance time, she did not put on heavy makeup, but used a clean look in front of me.

She is a clown and her stage name is ViVi.

Even our guild cannot get her real name, let alone be sure that her current appearance is her true identity.

Strictly speaking, she seems even more mysterious than Bai Ye.

"Um... Miss ViVi?"

"Yes!" "I'm here!"

"Go to hell! You're calling me Miss President, you fake!" "You're the fake, your whole family is fake!"

"Come on! Let's duel! The real body must be stronger!" "Okay! Who is afraid of who!"

As soon as ViVi opened her mouth, she immediately started quarreling with her clone. They accused each other and even pulled out the bananas hanging around their waists to start a serious fencing match. As long as she was around, everything in the world seemed to not proceed at the normal pace, but was made absurd and ridiculous by her.

In the end, ViVi and her clone used rock-paper-scissors to decide the winner, and the two became just one.

I sighed and cut to the chase: "ViVi, I hope you can represent our Stone House in the team competition of this year's Midwinter Arena. As long as you help us complete the entire series, we can pay you a minimum of five gold coins, and every time you win a game, you will get a three-coin bonus."

ViVi played with one of her many braids and raised her eyebrows.

Then she created two clones and started a three-person meeting.

"Hey, President Ehard is using money to insult our personalities again. What do you think?"

"What do you mean by insulting a person's dignity? It's obvious that money is everything!"

"Or can we snatch the president away on the spot?"

"For example, let her drink some milk first, then oop her and then fuck her?"

"Wait a minute, isn't our goal her money?"

"If you don't rob me of my money, are you still considered a woman?"

I was stabbed thousands of times, so I wisely didn't take their discussion into consideration. The best way to deal with clowns is to not respond to them. If you show any emotional changes because of their performance, then they will achieve their goal, and then they will intensify their behavior until they feel satisfied. Therefore -

But ViVi's attack power still exceeded my imagination as always.

"By the way, do they feel that Miss President seems to have gotten older, fatter, and uglier since she came back this time?"

"It turns out that eighteen is a hurdle for women. Look at her, she's almost getting crow's feet!"

"I will enter menopause in a few years. Is it true that human women have a very short shelf life?"

Looking at the fox tail on their buttocks and the animal ears on their heads, I couldn't help but get angry. How could this heartless girl have an average lifespan of more than 300 years? How could a hardworking, ambitious, educated, and morally virtuous woman like me get fat without noticing?

I turned cold and asked, "Have you thought about it?"

When they heard my unhappy voice, their fox ears immediately trembled with joy. Then they suddenly gathered together and discussed in a low voice for a long time. Finally, they looked up at me and said in unison: "Ms. President, have you gained 2kg or 3kg? Why do you speak and look as if there are 5kg of black powder hidden in your words and expressions? Getting angry is a big taboo for beauty!"

I want to hit her...

I really want to hit her...

If we say that ordinary clowns are meant to bring joy to people.

As for ViVi, she simply wanted to see other people's expressions.

In order to achieve this goal, she will use all kinds of means, just like that damn necromancer. ViVi is not a popular figure. Her existence will bring laughter to people, but also bring fear to people. Even if she is just a gold-level adventurer, she has already gained a bad reputation in the industry and is privately called the "Faceless Clown".

And at this moment, she also successfully aroused my angry emotions.

They held hands and danced a group dance in my study.

"President Ehard - idiot!"

"President Ehard -- fat woman!"

"President Ehard - old monster, no one wants him!"

"President Ehard - if you love money, you will be alone forever!"

They even started singing.

Like Byakuya, she is also very good at controlling people's hearts and minds, and even uses psychological tactics in battle.

Clearly, she knew exactly where a joke could go.

Just when I was about to go berserk, she stopped and retracted her clone.

“Good afternoon Miss.”

Suddenly, she moved stiffly like a mechanical puppet, and slowly sat in front of me, putting on an inorganic expression and said, "Master, as long as you don't treat me as rudely as you did just now, I will definitely complete the task for you, whether it's playing in the arena, going out for an outing, or sleeping with you and warming your bed at night, I will be obedient."
