(T/N: Bro this author is freaky dude.)
Fu Xuan didn't care at all about Qingque, who had an expression that said 'I'm already dead.'.
Instead, she looked across the card table at Lin Shuang, who was sitting opposite her.
"I would like to apologize to Miss Lin first. I didn't expect Qingque would actually dare to play cards here all the time. It's time to discipline her."
Fu Xuan grabbed Qingque's head with her small hand, as if she was going to rip her head off with her bare hands.
This caused Qingque to cry under Fu Xuan's hands, and it seemed that her heart was completely dead.
Lin Shuang probably guessed it when Fu Xuan appeared just now.
Qingque is here today, probably to wait for me.
But what she didn't expect was that Qingque not only didn't move after waiting for someone but even pulled Lin Shuang to play cards with her for a long time.
It took such talent that Fu Xuan took action personally and suppressed the little Qingque single-handedly.
Seeing that, Lin Shuang just smiled and waved her hand without saying anything.
Perhaps she thought Lin Shuang had an issue with the Divination Commission calculating her schedule, so she spoke again:
"Earlier, Yukong from the Sky-Faring Commission contacted me and said that a distinguished guest from the Sky-Faring Commission planned to travel on the Xianzhou Luofu today, but they were too busy to do so, so they asked the Divination Commission to borrow an idle person to accompany her."
As she said this, Fu Xuan looked at Qingque rudely.
Everyone in the Divination Commission knew about this girl's slacking off, and they all came to the Divination Commission to borrow people.
Thinking of this, Fu Xuan couldn't help but feel angry again.
Qingque saw that Fu Xuan's face looked even worse, so she quickly took out a few more dumplings and handed them to Fu Xuan with both hands.
"Master Diviner, please calm down. It will be bad for your health if you get angry. Hehe~"
"Snort."
Fu Xuan snorted and ignored Qingque's antics.
Lin Shuang withdrew her gaze from Fu Xuan's panel.
[Target: Fu Xuan]
[Favorability: 55 (curious and friendly)]
[Relationship: None]
['I heard that Lin Shuang had thwarted the secret conspiracy of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus, so I developed a favorable impression of her.']
It seems that there are many hidden benefits to rescuing the Whistling Flames Merchant Guild.
At least when these official people meet face to face, the level of favorability is already friendly.
This treatment is indeed good.
"The Sky-Faring Commission has been very busy recently, and I'm really grateful to Yukong and Master Diviner for their concern."
Lin Shuang sat on the chair and nodded slightly. Although Fu Xuan was mentally mature, she had a pretty face and looked quite cute.
Coupled with her mature and steady personality, it is not an exaggeration to say that she has a cute contrast.
In reality, Fu Xuan's clothes are top-notch in both fabric and workmanship, and they are so beautiful that you can't put them down.
Especially the pair of legs wrapped in white stockings and the little feet.
Food grade!
Lin Shuang felt that it was probably because of the reputation of the Divination Commission and the fact that Fu Xuan rarely showed up in public; otherwise, there must have been a 'Master Diviner Fan Club' on the Xianzhou Luofu.
Fu Xuan noticed Lin Shuang's gaze, but she didn't pay much attention to it. She just nodded and said:
"I still have official business to attend to, so I can't be away for too long. If Qingque is unreliable, you can contact me directly."
As she spoke, Fu Xuan handed over her Jade Abacus and added Lin Shuang's contact.
Qingque on the side quickly appealed for her grievances:
"Master Diviner, how can you encourage others to tell tales like this? Are you destined to create a pathetic barrier between Miss Lin and me?"
"How dare you say that!"
Fu Xuan glared at Qingque, then turned and left.
It was not until this time that Qingque finally breathed a sigh of relief and fell down at the card table.
"Ah... Why is Master Diviner like this... How can you send someone on a field mission and then come and catch them?"
Qingque was lying face down on the card table, swaying from side to side. Lin Shuang was not in a hurry. The other two card players watched Fu Xuan leave and sneaked back.
"How was it this time? You weren't arrested. Did Master Diviner really let you go?"
Hearing what her tile friend said, Qingque raised her head suddenly, opened her eyes wide, and glared at the two men without any threat.
"Of course not. I told you I really have a mission today, but I can't play tiles today."
"Although she wasn't arrested, Qingque will have to work overtime tomorrow under the supervision of the Master Diviner to make up for the work she missed today."
Lin Shuang was gloating on the side, and then Qingque couldn't hold it anymore.
"Uwaaaaaa—Diviner-sama has such a cruel heart!"
The other two card players looked at each other at this moment and both expressed sympathy for Qingque's tragic experience.
Of course, the corners of their mouths that couldn't be suppressed at all also showed the true inner thoughts of these two men.
Qingque pursed her lips and finally stood up from the card table reluctantly, then waved to Lin Shuang and said:
"Miss Lin, let's go. Master Diviner has personally given the order. Today I will take you to have a good look around Exalting Sanctum."
"Hey~ Just call me Lin Shuang."
After playing for such a long time, the mahjong addiction has been relieved a lot. Lin Shuang doesn't really intend to play tiles here until she is exhausted.
So after Qingque called her, she apologized to the other two people at the table and left with Qingque.
…
Walking on the street, Qingque was half a body length ahead of Lin Shuang and was even shorter than her.
So it is easy to see the twin ponytails shaking behind Qingque's head.
And those round and translucent shoulders.
"Lin Shuang, you said we played cards together, so we are like sisters..."
After walking a few steps, Qingque came close to Lin Shuang, smiling and looking as if she was paying attention to something.
Lin Shuang's expression froze, and she took three steps back, looking alert:
"Miss Qingque, please respect yourself. I will never support you in overthrowing the tyranny of the Master Diviner. The Divination Commission belongs to the Master Diviner."
"Ah wow wow! Don't talk nonsense!"
Qingque immediately swooped down and covered Lin Shuang's mouth.
The old lady Diviner stares at me every day; isn't it because she has some inexplicable expectations of me?
Everyone knows that Fu Xuan wants to be an Arbiter-General. If someone hears this, they will report it to Fu Xuan.
With the Master Diviner of the Divination Commission holding a handle on her and having to work overtime every day, she was afraid that she would never be able to enjoy her free time again!
The Qingque rushed into Lin Shuang's arms in a panic and could even smell a gentle and pleasant fragrance.
Lin Shuang raised her hand and held Qingque's slender waist, but it was a little stiff.
She shook her head and broke free from Qingque's little hand:
"Then what was that sinister expression on your face just now?"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh! Who is up to something bad? You can play Celestial Jade as you please, but you can't say anything you want. The old lady Diviner is extremely capable. A small person like me can't even compare to her with her little finger."
Qingque grinned and waved her little fist in front of Lin Shuang.
"So what exactly were you trying to say? We've gotten off topic."
"???"
Qingque's eyes widened. How could this woman lie with her eyes open? Who on earth diverted the topic?
Hateful!
However, when she thought that this woman still had the evidence to report her directly to the Master Diviner, the little Qingque could only choose to endure it.
