Ark Heroine Development Plan

"It's usually an agreement of 'you can destroy, but you can't kill.'"

"Aha?"

Exiah exclaimed in disbelief, and Texas frowned tightly.

"Uh... No, I'm not a murderer, it's just that this kind of thing is too..."

Sensing Guan Yueli's gaze, the Angel of Power explained with a wry smile, "But we're escorting the cargo, so it's legitimate defense anyway. Facing an enemy armed with lethal weapons, we can't kill them..."

"Because of Longmen's rules." Guan Yueli shifted her posture and reclined on the sofa. "Only Longmen can handle pure violence. Killing... is the bottom line that cannot be crossed. As one little girl said - you have no right to kill those people."

"Procedures and formalities...?" Mastema raised an eyebrow slightly. "That will indeed place a considerable burden on future work, but it's understandable."

“This is just the beginning.”

Guan Yueli suddenly smirked. "When Penguin Logistics' business grows, you'll encounter all sorts of pesky business partners. A typical example would be that guy who wanted to burn his bridges after crossing them. Or, for a more typical example... well, an employer who sexually harasses you, how about that?"

The faces of several girls changed instantly, and even Mostima was stunned for a moment.

"After all, you're all lovely girls." Guan Yueli narrowed her eyes. "But in the eyes of those 'big bosses', you're just employees. If any employer had bad intentions, let alone something unspeakable, even if it was just touching your breasts or buttocks, would you compromise?"

"I'll chop off that guy's claws." Texas made the decision without hesitation.

"I'm sure I'll lose control and beat him up." Croissant nodded vigorously. "The kind that'll leave him lying in bed for a month."

"But...what if that list is important?"

Guan Yueli looked at them, her chin in her hand. "What about orders involving 70 to 80 million, or even hundreds of millions of Longmen coins? They absolutely cannot afford any mistakes."

The ghost woman stretched and asked casually:

"Are you going to compromise... or not?"

The lounge was silent, and all the girls except Mostima looked confused and embarrassed.

"Hahahahaha alright alright, this kind of example will never happen."

Guan Yueli suddenly burst out laughing. "Your boss treats his employees very well. What's more, he personally selected you. He wouldn't take orders like that. Even if he did, he'd give you a warning. Even worse, if he took the order without warning, it probably means he doesn't care whether you guys deal with these clumsy guys or not. In short, you won't cause him any trouble."

"Huh..." Croissant let out a long breath. "Don't scare me, Sister Guanyue. I'm still wondering how much skill I need to gain to pay back all those Longmen coins..."

"So, compromise is never the right thing to do."

Guan Yueli looked out the window and said, "If you think there's nothing wrong with compromise, then that's bad."

"But..." Texas said softly, "There will always be situations where compromise is necessary. Consultant Guanyue also said so."

"Hmm?" Guan Yueli raised an eyebrow and smiled happily, "I've never encountered that kind of situation before."

Texas: “…”

“But it’s true that you will encounter this kind of situation.”

"Then...what should I do?"

"It's very simple." Guan Yueli pointed at Texas's eyebrows, "We can only compromise."

"Consultant Guanyue... doesn't seem like someone who would make such a choice."

Staring at the smiling woman in front of him, Texas hesitated for a moment and then said this.

"Hahahaha, of course not. The key point is not the compromise at that time, but what happened after the compromise."

"Don't paralyze yourself with the thought 'I have no choice.' Tell yourself that this is humiliating, but it can be changed if you are... strong enough."

“Think about what made you compromise, and then next time… make the other person compromise with you.”

She made a small gap between her index finger and thumb. "The greater the gap between the compromiser and the compromised, the more difficult it is to do this. After all, facing an opponent who has completely made you despair, compromising is absolutely natural."

"But if we can cross this infinite chasm, it's not because our opponent is too strong, but because we believe we are too weak. In this case..."

The woman smiled and looked at the sun hanging high in the sky:

“How much growth can be achieved?”

Kong suddenly whispered, "Sister Guanyue, are you thinking of someone?"

"...Hmm?" Guan Yueli turned her head and leaned towards Kong, chuckling and asking, "How did Kong-chan find out?"

"That... because the look in Sister Guanyue's eyes just now was a little different from when she looked at us."

Sora's face flushed slightly. "Maybe it was a little offensive, but the look in Sister Guanyue's eyes just now was, that, like... like..."

Her voice was so soft that it was hard to hear:

"Just like... Mom."

There was silence in the lounge for a second.

“Ehhhhhhhhhhh——!”

Exia was extremely, very, extremely shocked: "Sister Guanyue is already a mother!"

But, but, but...looking at it this way, she does look like a mother...

The breasts are huge, the waist is very narrow, and the lower body is super easy to give birth to, full of feminine charm, is it really possible...

"They do look alike, very much so!" Kong explained loudly, "I didn't say Sister Guanyue was a mother!"

but……

The idol lady's curious eyes also betrayed her inner thoughts.

"I don't have any children yet." Guan Yueli waved her hand calmly. "Although I really like children, I haven't given birth to one myself. However... Kong-chan's eyes are quite accurate."

"So it's... someone who is like a child to Sister Guanyue?" Croissant asked tentatively.

"Hahaha, I don't care, but she must be furious to death when she hears you say that."

"Wow... sounds like a rebellious kid." Exiah clicked his tongue.

"He's a pretty cute kid."

Guan Yueli added with a smile.

"What a naughty kid!"

"Bears also tend to run amok, which fits her personality quite well."

Guan Yueli said this happily, then looked at the clock in the lounge, stretched and got up.

"I have to meet someone later, so I'll stop here today."

"Goodbye, Sister Guanyue!" "Have a bon voyage, Sister Guanyue." "Goodbye, Consultant Guanyue." "See you next time, Miss Guanyue."

Amid the girls' farewells, Guan Yueli waved her hand and left in a graceful and elegant manner.

The girls left in the lounge began to whisper:

"Sister Guanyue's eyes were so gentle just now..."

"So, who is that naughty kid?"

"Uh... do you all feel very gentle? Why do I feel that when Sister Guanyue mentions her, there is a strange, uh... sense of pleasure?"

"I thought it was just my imagination! So you, Angel of Exia, feel the same way!"

Mostima drank her coffee, laughed and shook her head, while Texas stared at the coffee table, as if thinking about something.

Eyes...

After a moment, she shook her head.

"Smug."

Chapter 44: The long way to go in education

Guan Yueli is usually not very punctual. If he is very punctual, it means that this matter is very important.

Of course, it is very important to let her leave Penguin Logistics, the beautiful girl's nest, on time.

That is, to settle the account with Wei Yanwu.

Kicking open the heavy office door with ease, the dignified Miss Guanyue asked leisurely as she walked in:

"Xiao Wei... do you have anything to say? I'm here to ask for something."

"What does Lord Guanyue want to hear from me, and what does he want?"

Wei Yanwu asked back with a smile.

"Hmm... let me think about it..."

Guan Yueli touched his chin:

"How about giving me the custody of Xiao Chen?"

Before Wei Yanwu could reply, Guan Yueli laughed and said, "Just kidding, she's already this old, why would she still need someone else to raise her?"

Wei Yanwu said with a forced smile: "Master Guanyue is still as good at joking as ever."

"Although I was joking just now, I'm serious about wanting to raise her."

Guan Yueli sat down on the sofa where she usually sat with a relaxed look on her face: "Well... to be precise, it's cultivation."

"Master Guanyue has already made your determination clear to me."

Wei Yanwu replied indifferently, "No need to repeat it to me."

"That can't be considered a retelling."

Guan Yueli looked at Wei Yanwu with a half-smile: "Aren't you...getting results?"

"Yeah... the choices that child made were all the situations I expected the most, but they were also all the situations you... least expected, right?"

Looking at Wei Yanwu's expressionless face, Guan Yueli finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"That's the expression on your face, Xiao Wei. There must not be many people who can make you, the Lord of Longmen, so angry. Oh, just thinking about this makes me even happier."

"...Your Excellency Guanyue." Wei Yanwu took a deep drag on his cigarette and exhaled slowly. "If you're here to make fun of me, there's no need. You can make fun of me without restraint in many areas."

"Teasing? No, no, no, I'm not doing anything so childish. I came here..."

The scumbag woman said proudly:

"I'm here to show off!"

Wei Yanwu: “…”

Even more childish!

"If you follow your thinking, Xiao Chen should have remained silent and watched from the side while I took Narrow Lion away, right?"

"After all, you've pretty much guessed what was going on. Knowing I'd met you and the director of the Imperial Guard, you could easily guess our little deal. Since you knew it was a done deal and you had no power to stand up to me, avoiding it was the right thing to do... No, in your eyes, this wasn't even avoiding it; it was just following a predetermined plan."

“But she didn’t.”

Guan Yueli looked at Wei Yanwu with a smile: "Even though she knew this was an established fact, she still chose to stand in front of me. Because she didn't accept this 'mistake', she had to make a 'correction'."

"Only with my life."

Wei Yanwu looked a little dazed.

"Of course." Guan Yueli shrugged. "That girl isn't really that stupid. She stood in front of me because she knew I wouldn't do anything ruthless. How should I put it... Although it sounds embarrassing, I'm still quite happy."

"If she really is such a fool that she wants to risk everything for such a small matter, then educating her will be a real hassle."

"She knows exactly when to burn." The woman pointed to her head. "That's not something you or I need to worry about."

"Although she feels a bit impure, she's actually very pure. Deep down... she's different from what you expected, Xiao Wei."

Guan Yueli closed her eyes with joy and whispered, "Even if she couldn't stand in front of me, she would never acquiesce in the fact that something was right just because she knew it couldn't be done. She would only resent herself for not being able to stop me, and wouldn't attribute it to the fact that it was already decided."

"Do you... admit it?" Guan Yueli asked proudly with a raised mouth corner.

"I admit it, but I really don't want to admit it." Wei Yanwu sighed.

It wasn't because he absolutely lost face and didn't want to admit it, it was simply because... he didn't want Chen to have such a personality.

Too rigid and easy to break.

Chen Weilai must accept this fact, accept... this deal. If black and white are clearly divided, then the entire world will be torn apart.

"That's why I was happy with her subsequent performance."
