After replying the message, Zhe also told Ling the content, and the latter immediately stood up after hearing it.
"Well, I'll go put up the closed sign then."
Not long after, the door of the video store was pushed open, and the person who came in was Ailian, but unlike usual, she was wearing a windbreaker with a hood.
Her white thighs were not covered in black stockings as usual, except for a pair of flesh-colored knee-high socks. This was not the first time she had seen her dressed like this.
In the past, when they were on dates, Ellen would occasionally dress like this. The reason was that if the maid costume got dirty, it would be a bit difficult to wash, and she wanted to reduce the number of times she washed it.
Elaine, who entered the video store, said hello and went straight to the second floor. When she came down again, she had changed into Victoria Housekeeping uniform.
Then I followed him into the workshop and started discussing the details of the commission.
"The commission is to retrieve some documents from the void."
"Okay, keep talking."
"Gone."
"Uh……"
Chapter 340 Private! Ailian's work is in progress!
"There's absolutely no need to come to us at this level, right? There must be something hidden!"
Ling looked at Ailian in front of her and thought, could she be acting this way just to be with her brother? They were clearly past the stage of being in love and wanting to be together all the time.
By the way, we are in the honeymoon phase now, and I am not sure how long it will last...
"I need a rope maker who can communicate with the outside world from within the cave. Only you can do it."
"I knew it, it's a big order with a hidden secret!"
Ling clenched her fists happily, while Zhe beside her asked with concern.
"Ailian, can you tell me specifically who outside the cave we need to contact?"
"Ruby, Rin, Mona."
"Uh, it's them?"
Zhe was a little surprised, thinking it was a work conversation, but it turned out to be with a classmate, and Ailian later explained the specific reason.
"I need to discuss with them the topic selection for group work. Usually there will be a group assignment before the end of the semester."
"Wait, wait! Of course we know what a final assignment is! But what does this have to do with a commission?"
Ling was obviously still a little confused. In fact, Ailian had made an appointment before to discuss the final exam topic with her three girlfriends today, but a commission came up at the last minute.
In order to take care of both parties, I came to them.
"I'll leave my phone in the store. When the group chat starts, you can just click to connect and then put the phone microphone close to the microphone to help me broadcast."
In order to ensure normal internet speed during this period, Ailian specifically asked Fairy for help, and the latter agreed directly.
"That's settled then. I'll go to the second floor to rest for a while. Come up and call me when it's time to leave."
Then Ailian came to Zhe's room, lay down on the bed skillfully and covered herself with the quilt.
Soon after, Ailian and Zhe entered the target's hollow together, and the former glanced at the time.
"They will probably discuss it for a while, so let's go find the materials to be recovered first."
The two of them walked through the cave, and no one could stop them. After picking up a piece of information, Fairy's voice suddenly rang out.
"Ailian's phone is ringing. Should we answer it and relay the call?"
"Connect."
As Ling finished speaking, Ruby's voice immediately came from the communication channel.
"Round Shark, can you hear me? Eh? Why is it black, Round Shark? Eren? E-Len--?"
Ruby shouted louder, and Ellen, fearing she would be exposed, responded immediately.
"I'm still at work, so I won't turn on the camera. Also, don't call me by that nickname, or else..."
Ailian's tone was a little embarrassed, and she looked at Zhe beside her shyly, but fortunately the latter didn't seem to care.
I was just thinking in my heart, if I call her by that nickname next time, will it make Ailian more nervous?
"Okay, okay, I won't yell! But Ailian clearly doesn't look like she needs any money at all, so why is she still working every day?"
"It's because I've been working that I'm not short of money..."
genius!
Airen's matter-of-fact answer made Ruby on the opposite side stunned for a moment.
"Should I also consider working part-time? I've only been eating bread for lunch lately..."
"If you didn't buy scratch-off tickets every day, you wouldn't be in this situation."
Rin mercilessly exposed the reason for Ruby's embarrassment, but the latter still did not repent.
"That won't work. I've thought about it carefully—the probability of achieving freedom in life through my own efforts is much smaller than the chance of buying a scratch-off lottery ticket."
"Oh, so righteous..."
She clearly felt that something was wrong, but Rin didn't know how to refute it.
"That makes sense... Where do you usually buy them?"
(Well, if Ailian really doesn't want to work hard anymore, she can rely on Zhe to support her. Although considering the actual situation, she herself will not agree...)
As soon as Ailian finished speaking, Mona on the other side joined the conversation with some dissatisfaction.
"What's the point?! Let's discuss the topic! Stop talking about anything else!"
"it is good--"
Ellen answered in a lazy tone. Even in the void, she rarely looked completely serious.
"Who do you want to interview?"
"The sheriff, it's more feasible and less likely to cause accidents."
Hey! Zhe happens to know the person Mona is looking for.
"Wait, wait, that's so boring! I want to find the luckiest person in New Elido! Interview her about her secrets to buying scratch tickets!"
Well, isn’t this exactly what Ruby was talking about, Bernice?
"I think it's better to find a psychiatrist and ask her how to help her friend face reality."
Uh, it seems that this is not the case. Is it okay to study criminal psychology?
Because he was also on the communication channel, Zhe inevitably heard some of the content, and Ailian nodded in agreement at this time.
"Yeah, I agree—"
"It's me, it's me, isn't it?"
I don't know where Ruby got the confidence to say that.
"Ailian, I will definitely not let you just choose one of the three this time."
"Well, especially if you can't just count in your head and decide."
As good friends who have been with Ailian for a long time, Mona and Lin can be said to be very familiar with the latter's habits.
"Ah, have you been discovered?"
"Well, obviously."
Rin nodded in agreement with Airen's words, and Mona sighed upon hearing that.
"I had a feeling about this a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"Eh?? Is that so? I thought that the reason Airen agreed with me so often was because my suggestions were better!"
My goodness, so Ruby was so confident before because she didn't notice anything at all?
"Ailian, I thought you were the one who understood me the most. I thought we were the best in the world, Ailian..."
"My boss is here. I'll turn off the microphone first. I'll listen with headphones."
It seemed difficult to deal with this topic, so Ailian chose to strategically avoid it.
"I've already turned off the microphone on this side for Ailian."
"Well, thank you. I can continue with the commission."
"Rather than the commission, I'm starting to worry about Airen's final assignment..."
Zhe looked at Ailian beside him, who still had a calm expression and spoke in a completely nonchalant tone.
"No problem, it's like this every time the semester ends. Let's go to the next place to collect the materials."
While the two continued to move forward, Ruby was still trying to insist on her proposal on the communication side. The result was naturally unsurprising, and it was rejected by the other two.
I thought I could get away with it like this, but when I collected the second set of information, Ruby's voice on the communication became much louder.
"Ailian! You've been keeping your microphone muted and not typing in the group chat. Are you listening?"
Chapter 341 Ailian’s special service
"Sorry, my boss just called me. I just put on my headphones. Where were you guys talking?"
"Eren is taking his part-time job too seriously."
Ruby couldn't help but complain, while Rin seemed to have thought of something and pinched her chin to make an analysis.
"To adapt to the future workplace as soon as possible?"
"It's hard to imagine Ailian becoming a career elite in the future."
Mona opened her eyes wide in disbelief, while Ruby still found it hard to understand.
"So why is Airen so interested in part-time jobs?"
"I'm just earning pocket money."
Pocket money refers to the purchase of two sets of maid outfits worth several million dinnies for replacement.
"Hello... Hello? Why is there no sound?"
"Oh, sorry, the store's Wi-Fi seems to be down. I'll go and restart it right away. It should be back online soon."
After Ling answered Ailian's words, she stopped talking for a while, and then Zhe asked the latter with some curiosity.
"Actually, I also want to ask Ailian, why are you so concerned about school? Is this part of the assessment for Victoria's home economics?"
"It would be very troublesome if I failed the exam... Of course, it would be best if I could pass it on the first try."
Ailian answered in a very calm tone, because if you fail the exam, the teacher will definitely ask your parents to come, and in the past, they could only trouble Lekaan and Lina.
Neither of them would want Ailen to have bad grades, so they could ask Zhe for help now, but... well, forget it.
“…Is that really all?”
"Is this reason so hard for you to believe? Well... then just think of it as our service tenet. Only top students can better serve their wealthy masters."
As Ailian said this, she deliberately leaned her face on Zhe's shoulder, acting coquettishly and cutely, but at this time she did not realize the consequences of this joke.
"Uh……"
"Um……"
"Ai-Ai-Lian?"
The voices of Mona, Lin, and Ruby came from the communication one after another. Seeing this, Ailian's expression changed slightly.
"Hmm? The signal is back? What did you hear?"
"Serving a wealthy master... something? Eh? Ah... no no no, no, I didn't hear anything!"
"Uh...if I tell you it's not what you think, would you not believe me..."
Ellen's tone was unusually embarrassed. It was obvious that she knew this was a huge misunderstanding, and Ruby on the other end of the communication was also taking care of her emotions.
"Um... It's not that I don't trust Airen! But, it's just..."
