Ark Heroine Development Plan

"Why would Exia do this?!" the employees and the boss said in unison.

Guan Yueli also looked extremely surprised, as if she knew nothing about it.

"Yeah, why would little Aneng confess his love to Texas?" she asked in great confusion.

"If the romance level in the office was a normal five when Sora and Texas were dating, then the romance level was an excessive ten when Sora pursued Texas again after their breakup. And when Exia got involved... it became an outrageous twenty!"

Croissant looked numb: "I can't stand seeing them being so affectionate with each other every day. My psychiatrist even suggested I take a break."

"I have granted three days' leave to Kosong Que." The emperor added.

Guan Yueli rubbed his face.

It seems that I have a long way to go.

Chapter 123 - Proposed name change to Guanyue Logistics

"We're back!"

The energetic voice of Angel came from the door, and Croissant, who was sitting on the sofa doing nothing, shuddered immediately.

The emperor said in a deep voice, "I leave it to you, Guanyue."

Guan Yueli was not as serious as the other two. She looked around curiously, wanting to know how the three girls were getting along.

If it was just the sour smell of love, then it meant that Sora and Exiah had not fallen out. In that case, the problem wouldn't be too big, and they could start the next plan directly - of course, everything still needed to be observed personally before she could make a decision.

The first to come in was the Archangel holding a big bag. He had a lively smile on his face, the same as usual, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.

"Croissant, I've bought all the snacks you requested, and even extra—Sister Guanyue! Sister Guanyue, you're here!"

Just as she was about to say hello to Croissant, Angelica saw Guan Yueli peeking towards her. She immediately forgot about her colleagues with a look of surprise and ran towards Guan Yueli with a big bag in her arms.

"Wow...you're finally here. If the boss hadn't told me you were very busy recently, I would have thought you had left us alone."

The girl threw the bag full of snacks onto the coffee table, her eyes darting around Guan Yueli. If she had a tail, it would probably turn into a giant windmill.

"Snacks? Potato chips, jelly, meatloaf, and—"

"cough!"

The emperor who was sitting next to Guan Yueli coughed.

"...Oh, Boss, you're here too." Exia's expression became a little subtle. "But Boss, you don't like these snacks, right? So, Sister Guanyue, would you like some?"

The Emperor: “…”

Croissant: "Isn't this my snack?"

"Hey, what's wrong with giving Sister Guanyue a little?" Angel nudged Croissant's shoulder. "I told you I gave you a bigger portion."

"I didn't say I wouldn't give it to Sister Guanyue." Croissant looked puzzled. "What's with all this enthusiasm? I didn't see you being this enthusiastic when you were pursuing Texas."

If it weren't for Sister Guanyue, I wouldn't have chased Texas. Angel muttered to herself.

But of course she couldn't tell this to anyone. The Angel was grateful to Guan Yueli from the bottom of her heart for giving her the courage, so of course she couldn't sell her out.

"That's because I like Sister Guanyue very much, of course." Miss Angel smiled and hugged Guanyue Li's arm, being very close to her.

Guan Yueli's hand passed through the halo and rubbed the head of the Angel. She was also very happy.

Exiah should have been in a good mood all the time, which means that she didn't have any fierce conflict with Sora in the matter of pursuing Texas.

Peaceful competition?... Guan Yueli muttered to himself, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and then suddenly suppressed them.

She almost revealed the bad woman's smile.

"Exia, is Croissant still here? Please ask how you want the meat cooked today... Miss Guanyue?!"

Sora, who was holding a bag of food, let out a cry of surprise just like Exia. Croissant rolled his eyes, dug out some snacks from the bag on the coffee table, and started to gnaw on them.

The girl from the Eastern Kingdom also trotted over to Guan Yueli, put down her bag, and held it, trying to act like a well-behaved girl. She blushed and bowed to Guan Yueli.

"お久しぶりです! It's so great to see you today! Ah, can you stay for lunch? I bought a lot of new ingredients, you can have whatever you want, Miss Mizuki!"

Mr. Great coughed again.

"Ah, is the boss here today too?"

Kong tilted his head while carrying the bag and smiled. "I want to make some Eastern cuisine today. Boss, don't you mind?"

The Emperor: "I..."

Croissant: "I want to eat... Never mind, as long as you are happy."

"Then today's lunch will be Eastern cuisine!"

Sora waved his fist happily, carrying a large bag of ingredients in one hand without any effort. "I'm going to the kitchen first, Guanyue-sister. Look forward to it!"

"Hmm...excuse me for asking." Guan Yueli turned to look at the Angel of Exiah, "What did you guys plan to eat for lunch today?"

"I'm feeling pessimistic. Croissant did say he wanted Colombian barbecue... but adding barbecue to Eastern cuisine seems a bit weird."

The Emperor: "Have you ever considered what I eat?"

"Huh?" Exiah looked confused, "We didn't know you were coming back, Boss."

Penguin was furious: "Have you ever considered that Guanyue will come?"

Exiah waved his hands, telling the boss not to be so angry: "Hey, it's different, boss."

"What's the difference?"

"It's just different."

The emperor turned to look at Guan Yueli expressionlessly: "Is it too late for me to fire you now?"

Guan Yueli looked at him with pity: "I think it's too late."

"I heard you guys chatting at the entrance of the corridor."

Texas, carrying a suitcase, stood at the door, looking calmly at the most conspicuous woman in the room.

The latter smiled at her with his eyes curved.

Texas nodded slightly: "Long time no see, Consultant Guanyue."

Compared to the first two girls, she seemed much calmer and more normal.

"Long time no see, Xiao De."

Guan Yueli smiled and said, "What are you holding in your hand?"

"Two boxes of Exia's special Originium bullets, empty training equipment, and the lightsaber I just finished servicing."

As soon as she opened her mouth, the whole scene was completely different from the two girls just now. To be more precise, the scene had already started to change when she stood towards the door with a cold face and a black suitcase in her hand.

The first two girls were like the girl next door returning home from the supermarket, and the other a housewife returning from the market. This one, on the other hand, was like a cold-blooded killer, an ace fighter, carrying goods alone to a trading scene, slaughtering all the opponents without a single scratch, and finally hailing a taxi back home.

"Croissant, your hammer still needs repairing for about a day. I'll get it for you when the time comes."

On his way to Guan Yueli, Texas did not forget to add this sentence.

Croissant was so moved that he burst into tears. He was worthy of being the Texas who could remain calm and composed under the attacks of two love-brained people. Even when facing Guan Yueli, he remained so calm and acted like a human being.

The emperor leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, pushed his sunglasses lazily, and said nothing.

Texas glanced at him, then shifted his gaze to Guan Yueli.

"Guanyue Consultant, I have a lot of questions I want to ask you recently—"

“…” Guan Yueli glanced at the emperor.

Texas was a little surprised and looked at the emperor.

This delicate silence lasted for a second.

"You guys! This month's bonus is gone!"

Mr. Great's roar echoed in the Penguin Logistics building.

Chapter 124 - The Plan Begins

It's no secret that Guan Yueli has a special attack against beautiful girls, and when she disguises herself, her special attack becomes infinitely effective. So it's not the fault of the girls at Penguin Logistics for not taking their boss seriously.

The emperor was so angry that he even lost interest in supervising. What boss would not be angry when his employees were so presumptuous?

——Having said that, the food Sora cooked was still so delicious.

The Colombian financial tycoon grabbed the meat on the table with all his might. Croissant fearlessly fought with his boss for the meat, while Guan Yueli held the bowl and looked at the three girls sitting opposite him with great interest.

There was no dramatic scene of two people picking up food for one person until it piled up like a mountain, but the ambiguity of the atmosphere was explosively high: Sora's shoulder was close to Texas's, and he would occasionally whisper something in her ear; Exiah ate normally and did nothing, but did not seem embarrassed at all.

Of course, the most powerful one has to be Texas, who sits in the middle without moving, his expression unchanged. Guan Yueli says in his heart that this little wolf has much of his own style.

"Sister Guanyue." Seeing that Guanyue Li hadn't moved her chopsticks much, Kong asked softly, "Is it not to your liking?"

"Ah? No, no." Guan Yueli smiled and shook her head. "I really like this kind of home-style Eastern cuisine. My sister cooks it often, and Kong-chan's cooking skills are no worse than hers. I just, um... look at you guys."

The little girl's face was full of joy. It was certainly a very happy thing for her to be affirmed by Guan Yueli.

If it weren't for Guan Yueli, she didn't know when she would have the courage to express her feelings to Texas.

"Of course, Kong's cooking skills are impeccable." As the Angel of Power who, together with Croissant, forms the atypical hedonist duo of Penguin Logistics, he is always very active when eating, so naturally he is very sure of Kong's cooking skills.

"As long as Angel likes it." Sora smiled softly.

Exia answered cheerfully, "I've always loved Sora's cooking."

Texas, sandwiched between the two, looked calm and continued to eat with his chopsticks.

It seems that there is indeed no problem in their relationship, and it is harmonious and friendly.

But Guan Yueli, who was eating with his head down, raised his eyelids and said nothing.

"interesting……"

She probably knew what was going on.

But... we still need to investigate the parties involved before we can make new plans.

……

"I came here today to announce something important to you."

After a hearty meal, the emperor burped and announced something: "I'm going on a business trip in a few days."

Although it was somewhat incongruous for him as a boss to say the word "business trip", those who were familiar with this guy knew that the business trip the emperor mentioned actually meant going to a place where fun might occur to have fun.

"Boss, you're always going somewhere else." Angel Exia looked puzzled. "There's no need to announce it to us."

The companies under the Emperor's control are innumerable. Although Penguin Logistics is his most concerned company at the moment, he will not stay here all the time. It is common for the employees of Penguin Logistics to have their boss away.

Texas said calmly, "Because I travel frequently, this announcement is special."

"Right." The emperor nodded approvingly. "You should learn more from Texas and don't ask questions without thinking, Angel."

"She actually already knew it," Texas explained helpfully, "but before she knew it, she instinctively asked a question."

Although I already knew the answer in my mind, before I had time to think, "Ah, I already know it, so there's no need to ask the question," I had already asked the question.

It feels like my brain can't keep up with my mind.

"Hehe...Texas knows me best." The way Exiah laughed at this time looked a little silly.

Croissant felt a chill, rubbed his arms, and moved closer to Guan Yueli, whispering, "Sister Guan Yue, don't you feel any physical discomfort?"

"Maybe it's because I haven't seen enough." Guan Yueli shrugged.

The emperor's eyes twitched. These three were really hard to guard against and could get through any hole. Fortunately, he already had a countermeasure - after a private chat with Guan Yueli before dinner.

"What's special about this business trip is... I have to bring two people with me."

He said slowly.

Croissant immediately jumped up: "I sign up!"

Judging from her posture, she is just about to hug the emperor's goose legs.

"Then there's another one..." Sora muttered, subconsciously glancing at Exiah.

Exiah also happened to turn her gaze to Sora's face.
