“Yan Yan—”
As the door to the private room swung open, Huo Suixin cast a disdainful glance at the two lovebirds inside, completely unaware that she had interrupted a certain man’s proposal.
The moment Yan Yan spotted Huo Suixin at the entrance, she seized the opportunity while Qin Huai was distracted and quickly slipped away from the room.
“If I’m not mistaken, Yan Yan just made a hasty retreat, right?”
Huo Suixin asked uncertainly.
“Sister Huo, I was going to tell you about something Peng Nanyan has been hiding, but—” His playful tone carried a hint of irritation. “I’ve changed my mind.”
With that, he left behind an annoyed silhouette and hurried after the fleeing girl.
In the game, Peacock Nan Zhi and Mao Mao's Thigh watched in exasperation as the female players from Fragrant Pavilion blocked the entrance to the Guild Base.
“Our President isn’t even online yet. You Fragrant Pavilion girls can’t force a marriage until our President is here, right?”
Mao Mao's Thigh complained with a frown.
“We’re waiting right here for the East Wind Guild Leader!”
Phoenix Dance Butterfly Luan retorted defiantly.
The other female players from Fragrant Pavilion chimed in:
“Yeah, we’re waiting for the East Wind Guild Leader!”
“Exactly! We’re just waiting here.”
“You do your thing; we’ll do ours. It’s none of your business!”
……
Looking at the intimidating group of girls in front of him, Mao Mao's Thigh reluctantly took a step back and said to Peacock Nan Zhi, "Peacock, this isn't going to work. Incense should go inform the boss. Why haven't we heard anything yet?"
"How would I know! — Hey? Flickering Light... Flickering Light! Over here..."
As Fleeting Light passed by and saw Peacock Nan Zhi entangled with a group of female players, his first instinct was to retreat. However, he was spotted by Peacock Nan Zhi. He sighed softly and approached the noisy crowd, asking, "What's going on?"
"Look—" Mao Mao's Thigh pouted and tilted his head towards the group of girls blocking the entrance. "It's all because of the boss's romantic debts—ow! Why did you hit me..."
He covered the back of his head, looking a bit wronged at Peacock Nan Zhi, who had just slapped him.
"What nonsense! Who said our boss has romantic debts with the girls from Fragrant Pavilion? One more word, and I'll Three-Stage Slash you!"
"I'm not the only one..." Mao Mao's Thigh muttered with a laugh, "Now everyone in Zero Point knows that our Newbie Alliance's Guild Establishment Order... and Guild Base is Master Xiang's dowry—ow! Why did you hit me again? It's the truth!"
Mao Mao's Thigh glared angrily at Peacock Nan Zhi, who had slapped him once more.
"You—you're driving me crazy! Whose?! Our Madam President is clearly Vice President Huo..."
"Alright, Peacock," Fleeting Light sighed again, grabbing hold of the furious Peacock Nan Zhi to comfort her. "The others aren't online; they don't know what's going on."
"That doesn't mean he can just look at some boring gossip posts on the Forum and start spouting nonsense! How can he do that to our President and our Vice President?!"
"Then you tell me what happened. If you don't explain it to me, how would I know the truth? You didn't tell me when I asked before, and now you're blaming me for making assumptions—hey! You want to hit me again? No way..."
Mao Mao's Thigh, standing at nearly six feet three inches tall, agilely dodged behind the slender Fleeting Light. Seeing his comical appearance made Peacock Nan Zhi laugh in spite of herself. "Heh heh... Come here, I promise I won't hit you."
"I... why would I come over there! No way..."
"Hey, you! Come here!" Peacock Nan Zhi made a move to pull him out from behind Fleeting Light, causing Mao Mao's Thigh to shrink back even further.
"Enough, you two! Incense is here."
They both turned around and indeed saw More Curved Than a Mosquito Coil walking toward them with Splashing Water in Your Face.
"The President won't be online for another thirty minutes," More Curved Than a Mosquito Coil said, glancing around at the players in the Fragrant Pavilion at the door. He mocked, "No need to worry; Master Xiang should already be online. These women will leave soon. Let's head to the conference hall; the President has something to announce."
Along the way, Peacock Nan Zhi shot an annoyed glance at Mao Mao's Thigh, making the tall man follow him with a pitiful expression.
"Thigh, come here. I need to tell you about what happened in the Guild while you were away..." Fleeting Light's expression grew colder. "You know that our Guild's Guild Establishment Order was handed over to us by Master Xiang, right?"
Mao Mao's Thigh nodded.
"At first, we thought it was just a regular transaction and didn't think much of it," his voice suddenly dropped. "The transaction was handled by Cashmere and Style. Now... now one of them has resigned from the Guild out of guilt, and the other hasn't logged in."
"What happened to Cashmere, our Leader?"
"Style received news from Master Xiang and bought the Guild Establishment Order without the President's permission. Under Master Xiang's persuasion, she thought she was purchasing ordinary supplies and didn't ask further questions. By the time we realized what was happening, it was too late; Fragrant Pavilion's water army had already taken over the Forum's trending topics."
"What?! Fragrant Pavilion plays a good game—damn it! Let me go—"
"Go where?!"
"Hiss—ouch!"
Peacock Nan Zhi slapped Mao Mao's Thigh on the back of his head again, his face twisted in anger. "You idiot! All you know how to do is fight; can't you use that empty head of yours for something else?"
"I... how was I supposed to know? You all didn't tell me..." The rough-looking man wore a baby-like expression of grievance and unhappiness, causing Peacock Nan Zhi to roll his eyes dramatically. His boyish face displayed a clear caption of "I don't want to talk to this idiot."
"Cough, cough..." Fleeting Light cleared his throat a few times. "Peacock, don't blame the thigh; with his straightforwardness, how could he have anticipated the tricks of those women from Fragrant Pavilion?" If it weren't for Gray Tone finally persuading President to admit fault, Gray Cashmere would have been in trouble... Regardless, President's reputation had taken a significant hit.
Looking at the situation now, it was clear that Newbie Alliance was in the wrong. The Guild Establishment Order was in their hands, and they had even built a Guild Base—these were undeniable facts. Even if they tried to explain themselves, it would only earn them the label of taking advantage while pretending to be innocent. Moreover, in reality, President had been dealing with a series of issues at home and needed to put on a show to gain the trust of Lou Family and eliminate some corrupt elements from Peng Family...
In the Furong Pavilion private room.
"So, our Young Master Peng is acting for the sake of Peng Family with that delicate sister from Lou Family?"
Beichuan wore a sly grin on his fox-like face, looking both cunning and gleeful.
"Why are you still here?"
Li Nanbei shot him a disdainful glance.
At this moment, only Qin Huai, Huo Suixin, Li Nanbei, and Beichuan were present in the private room.
"Why can't I be here?" Beichuan narrowed his Phoenix Eyes and glanced at the Black-Clad Man across from him, grinning with delight. "Aren't you my cousin?"
"Cousin?!"
Huo Suixin looked back and forth between Beichuan and Qin Huai in astonishment.
