Seele took the other person's hand in her hands and looked at Miss Black Seele with great anticipation.
In this way~
Even if you're not physically present, your other self can still have company.
Miss Hei hope, having recovered her senses, was about to take a sip of sparkling water to calm down when she was nearly choked by Xi'er's statement about wanting to become a mother. She quickly wiped the sparkling beverage from her mouth with her sleeve.
The nightmare has come true; is today truly not her unfortunate day?
These days, she works diligently on the farm, praying every minute that Seele won't have a bad boy's child. She even took time to go to a newly built church nearby to pray to a nun named Aponia.
Even so, bad news still didn't let her off the hook.
"Absolutely not! Cough cough..."
"My other self, are you alright?" Seele asked, helping her up with concern.
But this act of helping her up revealed the fact that Miss Hei Xi had gained weight again. Xi'er was very puzzled as to why her other self, who was busy in the fields from morning till night, had not only not lost weight, but had even gained a lot of weight.
Could it be that...?
Was it because Xiaoyuan secretly prepared snacks for the other person before the meal, and they ate too much?
"I'm fine. Anyway, Seele, you absolutely cannot give birth to that bad guy's... cough cough, little Seele prematurely!"
"Why not? Wouldn't it be nice if we could keep each other company after we're born? My other self, didn't you often fantasize about having a little sister?" Faced with the innocent words of the little angel Seele, Miss Black Seele felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her cheeks flushed red, and she tried her best to defend herself.
Chapter 734 Ready-made cats are a rare find
"I, I was... I was... Anyway, no means no. Little sister, I only need you, Xi'er!"
At this moment, Miss Kuroki was almost in tears.
She completely lacked the bad-girl vibe that used to come from prioritizing Seele, and instead seemed like a little pet that Seele was about to abandon.
"Okay, okay, Seele won't have any more children, whatever you say~"
Seele gave the other person a big hug and gently patted Miss Black Seele's back. She seemed to understand why her other self had reacted so strongly. She usually spent her free time popularizing knowledge about becoming a mother.
When a family member suddenly gains an extra member, some rejection reactions may occur.
The other self is probably worried that with another younger sister, she will transfer some of her love to that sister. She doesn't know if she will be biased then.
Even now, her other self always feels that she is biased towards Xiaoyuan.
"No matter what happens in the future, Seele will always be by your side. Before, Seele relied on you, now please rely on Seele, okay?"
“Seele…”
A sobbing sound came from Miss Kuroki, tinged with a hint of emotion.
Indeed, there's no one better than Seele in this world!
She nestled in the other's arms, feeling the warmth from Seele's broad embrace. The power of the Herrscher of Life and Death not only strengthened Seele's belly but also her bosom, far exceeding her size.
But as long as Seele doesn't become a mother, she'll still be the same little angel she always was, and I'll let her do whatever she wants.
In Seele's warm embrace, the fatigue from being bullied by the bad guy vanished without her noticing, and even her tummy felt a little lighter. Miss Black Seele was completely immersed in Seele's gentle embrace, unaware that Seele was now exuding a strong maternal aura.
Ten months later...
Even if Miss Hei hope doesn't want another younger sister, she probably has no choice but to accept it. Of course, it's more likely that she'll have two more, one for Xi'er and one for Miss Hei hope, a double blessing.
at the same time--
While Miss Hei Xi was seeking comfort from Xi'er, the newly appointed farm owner Xia Yuan was also busy at the farm estate outside the villa, discussing work with Padofelis who had come to report for duty.
Of course, during this period.
It appears that the two had a verbal altercation, with the newly hired employee, Padofelis, arguing with her farmer, Xia Yuan.
"Brother Xia Yuan, this is completely different from what we agreed on!"
Padofelis was squatting in the field, looking aggrieved as she tugged at the weeds growing around her with her little hands. All that talk about working from home, working only five hours a day, eight types of insurance and three types of funds, various benefits, maternity leave, and holidays was just a lie!
No, it's to lure the cute kitten!
"Because you are only in the probationary period right now, your official employment will depend on your performance during outdoor work."
He recited his prepared statement.
"Um... Brother Xia Yuan, we protest! This is completely against the current labor laws of our time. We've never been this tired before, let alone the fact that we are precious living fossils that can move on their own. We want to accuse you of bullying the old folks of the past!"
"Protests are invalid. Even if you're already in your coffin, you still have to climb out and get back to work."
“After all, you just signed the contract, Pado, and the final interpretation right belongs to the head of the HR department of the Yuanli Studio.” He held up pages of contracts and gestured to Pado Phyllis.
If Xiao Paduo dares to breach the contract, she will have to pay Yuanli Studio an exorbitant penalty, an amount that would be enough to crush them.
"Brother Xia Yuan, you have no conscience! How could you bear to deceive such an adorable kitten? You're wicked!"
Padofelis was on the verge of tears. She immediately threw the weeds she had just plucked at the other party. If the contract was not fulfilled, the penalty for breach of contract would be an astronomical sum. She did the math and realized that even if she sold all her possessions, she couldn't afford to pay that much.
"Isn't this what I learned from you, Paddy? Once bitten, twice shy. Who told you to rush to put your little fingerprint on the contract without properly reading it first? There's no such thing as a free lunch. Learn your lesson now so you won't be fooled again!"
The fingerprints, resembling cat paws, are clearly visible on the contract.
Looking at the weeds all over the farm, Padofelis lay down on the pile of weeds. How long would it take her to clear all these weeds by herself? Xia Yuan was really wicked. How could she have trusted him so much!
"Pado, don't be lazy, get up and clear the weeds quickly."
Her lifeless and unfocused eyes glanced at the other person sitting on the railing. "Brother Xia Yuan, do you know what you look like right now?"
"Like what?"
"Hmph, that wicked farmer, all that's missing is a little whip made of cats hanging from his waist."
"If you don't get up from the pile of weeds, I'm going to consider using the belt on my pants as a little whip to lash your little bottom."
"Cats will never be slaves!"
"Unless it includes meals and accommodation, right?"
"Hmph, even if it includes food and lodging, it won't work. My Padofelis isn't some spineless little cat like [canned food]!"
"Really?"
Xia Yuan appeared beside her without her noticing, and with his nimble hands, he kept scratching the areas where Padofelis's senses were most intense. "Hahaha... Brother Xia Yuan, stop scratching! Stop tickling my armpits, they're so itchy! Let's get up!"
As a farm owner, you should start properly training new employees as soon as possible.
"Phew... Brother Xia Yuan, please spare us! We'll go back to clearing the weeds. If we keep scratching, we'll... we'll break."
"It's okay, we don't need to remove the weeds today, there's plenty of time later, but a ready-made cat is something you can't always find."
Ten minutes later—
Padofelis collapsed onto the pile of weeds, utterly exhausted, like a liquid cat, sweat dripping down her face, tears still on her cheeks, her breathing rapid and forceful.
Will you listen to me from now on?
"Huff, huff, huff, listen... listen..." She never wanted to go through what had just happened again.
"Sir, this must be the location you're referring to, right?"
Suddenly, Padofelis's sensitive ears twitched, as if she had heard a sound coming from afar. Her pupils, which were about to dim, faintly gleamed, as if she had made up her mind.
Chapter 735 Paddy Wants to Take Maternity Leave!
"That's Ying-jie's voice? Great, we're finally saved!"
Padofelis used all the strength she had left to break free from the other party's clutches, and with all four limbs, she rushed towards Sakura, as if Xia Yuan behind her was some kind of terrifying existence.
"Sister Ying, come quick and save Pado! Brother Xia Yuan is going to eat us!"
Padoflis immediately hugged Sakura's leg, tears streaming down her face. She cried so hard it was almost comical; he wanted to award little Padoflis a golden statuette.
“Phyllis, calm down. What exactly happened between you and Lord Xia Yuan? Is there some kind of misunderstanding?”
"There's no misunderstanding, sob sob sob, Sister Ying, my dear Sister Ying, you have to stand up for us! We've only been here a short time. When Brother Xia Yuan promised us the company's benefits, you were right there with us, Sister Ying. But who knew he would tamper with the contract? Not only is there no rest time, but we also have to work tirelessly every day, clearing weeds and planting bitter gourds. If we want to quit, we have to pay a huge penalty. Sister Ying, you absolutely cannot sign a contract with Brother Xia Yuan!"
"In my opinion, Sister Pado, you're just making excuses to avoid clearing the weeds, like trying to drag my sister into this mess?"
Rin peeked out from behind Sakura, seemingly already guessing what she was thinking.
Padofelis's eyes widened in surprise. Although that was indeed what she was thinking—wanting to bring Sister Ying to her side—she would never admit it, even if she were beaten to death, if it were exposed.
"Oh, so all that pampering from your sister Pado these past few days has been for nothing, huh? You've already sided with Xia Yuan so quickly? Don't you even respect your sister Pado anymore?" Pado Phyllis tried to move the other person with her most sincere feelings.
However, Rin, hiding behind Sakura, playfully stuck out her little tongue at Phyllis.
“Sister Pado, Brother Xia Yuan is not an outsider. He is a great benefactor to my sister and me. It is because of him that I can accompany my sister without any worries.”
She affectionately rubbed her cheek against Sakura's hand.
"Alright, alright, we're just outsiders, okay? Nobody cares for us, nobody loves us... We're really unwanted by both our older and younger sisters. Anyway, when Brother Xia Yuan comes over later, he'll definitely ask you to clear the weeds. Don't beg Sister Pado to help you with the workload then~"
“Rin is not like her sister Pado who always likes to slack off. It is Rin’s honor to be able to help her benefactor brother with what she can.”
She waved her little fists, ready to show off her skills.
Just then, Xia Yuan caught up and overheard the conversation between Lin and Phyllis... feeling extremely gratified; this was truly a considerate daughter.
"Pado, look how sensible she is. And look at you, you're so much older than Rin, yet you don't act like a senior at all. But Rin, you're a guest, how can you make a guest work? How about this, I'll double your Pado sister's workload, and you just cheer her on from the sidelines?"
Phyllis's eyes widened instantly. "Brother Xia Yuan, do you have no heart at all?!"
She felt like a kitten disliked by its owner, forced to do all the dirty and tiring work. Life was tough, the kitten sighed.
But Pado's protest was clearly ineffective. Xia Yuan winked at Lin, who understood immediately.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely keep a close eye on things... and cheer for Sister Pado!" The two hit it off immediately, giving Pado Phyllis no chance to refuse, and from then on, the kitten was no longer free.
"It's alright, Phyllis, I'll help you too."
Padofelis looked up at the other person silently with her big, watery eyes filled with tears, "Sister Ying, as expected, you are the one I can rely on in a critical moment."
"Oh right, I forgot to mention, in order to divide the area and make it easier to cultivate various crops, Pado, you'll be in charge of the right-hand area, and Sakura, you'll be in charge of the left-hand area." He separated their areas, completely preventing Pado from slacking off.
Looking at the weeds and rocks on the right side of the area, which showed no signs of being cleared, Padofelis was numb.
It's never finished, it's impossible to finish!
Rather than saying she had no desire to work, she would rather find a way to get rid of the land once and for all than spend her days and nights hoeing with her claws. Under what circumstances would she not have to work in the fields?
"Work, off work, purchasing, shipping, holidays... maternity leave, wait, maternity leave?!"
Perhaps, if she were simply carrying a few kittens in her belly, no matter how cruel Xia Yuan might be, he wouldn't make her do farm work while she was six months pregnant. But if she wanted to have kittens, Xia Yuan would need to contribute something...
No, no, how could I have such an absurd idea?
"Sister Pado, don't just stand there. Why is your face turning red before you've even started working? Hurry up and start clearing the weeds. I've already cleared several acres." Rin urged her with her little hand.
"Yes, I understand."
Padofelis had a feeling that the other person wasn't there to cheer her on, but rather to act as Xia Yuan's spy, temporarily supervising her work.
She quickly patted her burning cheeks to stop her wild thoughts.
As Phyllis was engrossed in her work, a stubborn rock blocked her path. Phyllis used all her strength, scratching with her claws and smashing with her ring blade, and it took a great deal of effort to finally chisel the rock in front of her.
"Phew, I'm so tired. The stones here are even harder than Sister Ellie's crystal."
Just by chiseling open a single rock, Pado was almost exhausted and collapsed. No, she needed to take a break and check on Ying-jie's situation first. But what she saw plunged Phyllis into deep self-doubt.
"Disappear—" The flash of the blade was fleeting.
No one present could see the speed at which Sakura drew her sword. Not only did the stone become abnormally hard due to the influence of Honkai energy, but even space itself seemed to be severed by that sharp and cold sword energy, clearing away the acre of land in front of her in an instant.
Padofelis's small mouth was wide open and she couldn't close it at all.
No, she had only just finished clearing away one stone when Sister Ying cleared away all the weeds and rocks in an acre of land with a single stroke? They're both heroes, but the difference is just too great, isn't it?
Phyllis was even considering whether to borrow a few "True Self" imprints from her sister Ellie to recreate the glory of Paradise in its heyday.
"Sister Pado, don't be lazy, keep going!"
Chapter 736 Hmph, maternity leave it is!
"No, your sister Pado has already been hit hard by reality. She's hurt her back and can't stand up at all."
There was never any suspense between her and Sister Ying from the very beginning, so how could they be compared? While Little Pado was slacking off and falling into self-doubt, Ying had already finished cleaning all the areas she was responsible for.
"Sir, the cleanup is complete. What is the next step for me?"
"So fast..."
Even Xia Yuan found it unbelievable, and fell into deep thought as he looked at the hundred acres of land without a trace of weeds.
