As Nicole spoke, she looked at Zhe again, and the images of several of her companions came back to her mind.

"You're asking for a beating for telling me this at a time like this. Although I understand what you mean."

Lucy glanced at Nicole with a slightly relaxed expression, then spoke again.

"For me, that place isn't the house where my blood relatives live, but a place with important people, like the wilderness of the Outer Rim.

"Isn't the Rabbit House the same place for you? A place where you'll always feel safe."

"I thought the place where you'd feel at ease would be a video store~"

"...I'm giving you this as it is! Oh, and by the way, Zhe is coming to the Outer Ring that day to celebrate Tuojin Day with us!"

"Huh? Is that true? Zhe? You promised her?"

"Um...about this..."

Lucy's proud words were met with a slightly dissatisfied look from Nicole, as if to say, "You've forgotten your old love because you found a new one."

Seeing this, Lucy became even more proud, but because Nicole had helped her after all, she spoke again.

"Don't worry, if Nicole is willing, you are more than welcome to bring everyone from the Cunning Rabbit House to the Outer Ring to celebrate Takujin Day~"

Chapter 381: Zhe seems to have too many friends of the opposite sex~

Finally, after a lot of verbal coaxing from Zhe and both parties not delving further into the topic, the matter was resolved smoothly.

But Lucy really didn't want to go home? This is her answer.

"I don't miss that place at all. The manor where my parents lived isn't home to me anymore. But damn...

The only thing I miss is the taste of the cheese pie that the cook made... Zhe, if you have the chance, I hope you can try it too. It tastes really wonderful.

"Ah."

Zhe nodded and kept this in mind. Since Lucy liked it so much, he would find time to learn the recipe of the cheese pie.

"By the way, are you still coming on Takujin Day?"

"Of course, after all, I've already agreed. Are you worried that I might go back on my word, Lucy?"

"No, no, it's just that if you didn't come, those guys would definitely come to bother me, that's all!"

Lucy said this, but she was actually visibly happy. Zhe didn't say much, touched her head, and then went to find Nicole.

"Have you finished talking to the young lady? Seriously, you don't really want to marry into the Outer Ring family, do you?"

"Huh? Why would you think that?"

Zhe was speechless at Nicole's words. If he really wanted to marry into the Outer Ring, Ya would definitely be the first to disagree. She might even do something extreme at that time...

"Ahem, no kidding, actually... there's something I want you to do me a favor for. This time, it's really a small favor! A very small favor.

It will also satisfy you... I hope. You won't say no to me for such a small thing, will you, Zhe?"

"What little favor do you want from me?"

Zhe was a little confused, while Nicole continued to act mysterious.

"Come with me somewhere."

The small favor she was talking about turned out to be helping her pick out a vacation-style outfit, and actually, she had mentioned this before.

The pink holiday cool style shows off her beauty, and the pendant with a tail behind her adds a unique flavor.

"How about it, Zhe! I have to say, the holiday style really suits me~"

"It's really nice, but this one seems to be the most expensive... Is your bill okay? Do you need me..."

Before Zhe could finish his words, Nicole smiled and waved her hand to refuse.

"Hehehe~ Thanks to you and that young lady, I will have a large income in a few days! I don't rely on you for everything. What's the difference between that and being supported by you?

After working so hard for so long, it’s okay to buy myself a new set of clothes as a reward~"

"So it's advance spending again, but where did you get that big income?"

"That's called rational spending planning! As for income, that's all about that man in the suit."

After Nicole got the other party's contact information, she interrogated him... no, it should be said that they communicated and negotiated, and found that it was not unexpected.

As the Tokin Day approached, the Montev Group indeed had some urgent matters that required external contractors, and Nicole took this opportunity to secure their cooperation.

"Win-win, right?"

A proud smile appeared on Nicole's face as she spoke. Zhe heard it and said, "As expected of Nicole," without taking his eyes off her.

"Okay, stop staring at me! Even I get shy... If you really want to see it, you can watch it tonight..."

"Do we have to wait until night?"

"Disgusting... Don't do that on the street..."

Nicole felt the hand lingering on her waist and pushed it away shyly, but not too hard.

Afterwards, I discussed the details of the costumes with Nicole, although in the end it seemed that there were no more costumes to discuss...

……

"Brother, today is the finals of the Lido Cloth Competition, right? I asked Odilea and Odette to close the shop. Let's go to the Star Ring together to watch the Ies competition and help you with logistics."

After saying this, Ling went to the lounge with the sisters, while Zhe took Yiaisi to meet up with Jiayin and Evelyn.

"It's so close~Champion!"

"Aren't you worried at all, Jia Yin?"

Seeing the other party so confident, Zhe couldn't help but ask a question, and the answer was very consistent with the other party's character.

"Don't worry, if you're only worried about Ies not winning the championship...if something bad happens.

We'll worry about it later! Right now, I just want to trust you and Ies. I want to win! And I think Ies can win."

"Oh? Ies said something very cool just like Kanon did before."

"Eh? Did Ies say that too? This is really..."

Jiayin looked at Ies in surprise. Just when she didn't know what to say, Evelin beside her spoke at this time.

"After all, you've taught Ies a lot these days."

"Even Eve said so...! Hehe~ Then I feel even more confident~"

Since he can say the same thing as Yao Jiayin, then Iesi can definitely become a big star now~ I'd like to apologize to my opponent today in advance~"

Seeing Jiayin so proud and confident, Zhe was naturally happy to see it, but at this moment, Ies suddenly pulled the corner of his clothes.

"Hmm... (Zhe, I think I saw someone very, very familiar...)"

Hearing this, Zhe also looked in the direction Ies pointed. It was Victoria Housekeeping...

When Zhe was about to go over and say hello, Jiayin had already gone ahead.

"Ellen~ What a coincidence! Are you guys coming to participate in the competition too?"

As Jiayin spoke, she came in front of Victoria Housekeeping and others. Seeing this, Zhe hurried to follow.

"Ms. Jiayin, Mr. Zhe."

Lekaan greeted them calmly and was not surprised by their appearance. After communicating, he found that they were indeed here to participate in the competition and had read the information about the finals.

"I'm quite surprised..."

Ailian looked at Zhe with a calm expression but a hint of resentment. She really didn't expect that the friend she just met some time ago would actually team up with Zhe to participate in the competition.

"Eh? Airen actually knows Zhe too?"

Jiayin was a little surprised, but then felt a little strange. It seemed that many contestants in this competition knew Zhe, and most of them were cute girls with whom she had a good relationship.

Zhe seems to have too many close friends of the opposite sex.

"Ahem, come to think of it, why did you participate in the competition?"

Zhe realized that something was wrong and wanted to change the subject, but Lekaan looked at Zhe meaningfully and then continued speaking calmly.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you."

Ailian, who was standing by, was still talking to Jiayin. She was quite interested in Ies's participation in the competition.

Chapter 382 Jiayin: Will Zhe force me? I feel a little excited...

"Aileen, Ailian, can you tell me how you and Zhe met?"

"Huh? We got to know each other through some interactions. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"Oh, because I want to know what the relationship is between Ailian and Zhe. After all, the boyfriend you talked to me about before seems very similar to Zhe~"

Jiayin said some dangerous words with a smile on her face, and even the upper half of her face looked a little gloomy. Seeing this, Ailian couldn't help but fall silent for a moment.

What should I do? My new best friend seems to be interested in my boyfriend too...

"Just as you thought, he is my boyfriend."

Jiayin's palms clenched instantly, and veins on the back of Bai Zhi's hands popped out faintly, but there was still a friendly smile on her face.

"Is that so? But I wonder... maybe Airen made a mistake? After all, Zhe never told me about this~"

"Well, he never told me that before."

Ailian nodded. Her words touched upon many aspects, but Jiayin obviously misunderstood them as Zhe had not told Ailian about his own affairs.

"Oh~ If that's the case, that's terrible. You were so close to me when you were together, but now you're already with Elen?"

While Jiayin was smiling, the corners of her eyes trembled slightly, and she seemed a little angry. If Zhe couldn't explain it well, she would definitely not let it go.

But what puzzled her was why Ailian acted as if nothing had happened. This made her curious, and even temporarily put aside her anger.

"Isn't Elaine angry?"

"Angry? Well... a little bit. After all, he didn't tell me in advance."

"Wait, wait, Ailian means that it's okay if I tell you already?"

"Hmm~"

What does "hmmmm" mean?! Can something like this be solved with "hmmmm"?!

If you do this in a confirmed relationship, it's cheating! No normal person would forgive it!

If it were me, I would never let him go unless the person Zhe cheated with was Eve!

"Doesn't Elaine care about this?"

Jiayin couldn't understand, so she asked again, but the answer she got was still Ailian's calm tone.

"Why should I care? It doesn't make any difference anyway, and I can't stop it."

Besides, Zhe has never lacked love for her. Since there is no change from before, there is nothing to be unacceptable.

"No difference? Can't stop it?"

"Well, yeah, if you can't accept it, you can leave, but that would be terrible, so I stayed."

Ailian meant that she would lack a lot of fun and love after leaving Zhe, but Jiayin obviously misunderstood.

Will it be bad after leaving?

Isn't this a threat?! Even though Airen is so powerful... no, Zhe seems even more powerful!

Many violent images instantly emerged in Jiayin's mind, and the targets were Ailian and Zhe... Wait, would Zhe really do that kind of thing?

Not sure, it's better to ask again...

"Is Ailian often bullied by Zhe?"

Jiayin's question made Ailian stunned for a moment, and then the latter's face turned slightly red, and he turned his face away a little embarrassedly.

"Hmm... well, not often, sometimes once a day, sometimes once every two or three days..."

Ailian did not think of Jiayin's so-called bullying as real bullying. After all, Zhe had such a good personality and always treated her gently.

Therefore, she mistakenly thought that the bullying Jiayin mentioned was what she meant at first, but her words of admission and the way she behaved surprised the latter again and made her misunderstand even more.
