Ying's expression carried a hint of an elder's, as if to say, "I've met more people than you've eaten meals."
"And weren't we supposed to get back to Mr. Liu Bai?"
"Don't be in such a hurry~" Fox Palace revealed a very familiar wicked smile, "Then what about a relationship that's slightly less than that of parent and child?"
"...husband and wife, and siblings?"
Ying pondered for a moment and cautiously replied, "Slightly inferior" is too broad a term.
"No, perhaps closer blood relatives could be included?"
"Yes, yes, that's a very honest answer."
Fox Palace smiled like a fox that had tasted meat.
"So, putting aside all the messy stuff, can I assume that these relationships are inherently quite close?"
Fox Palace is no longer pretending; she's laid her cards on the table.
Being pragmatic is better than dying without ever finding a path or matching one's ideas!
"Hmm...you could say that." Ying became even more puzzled.
Are you sure that the topic we're talking about right now is related to Liu Bai?
"Then, Ying, tell me, how can we get Liu Bai to focus entirely on treating Zhen?"
Having said that, Ying showed a thoughtful expression.
Soon, Ying's expressions turned into a variety of colors.
Fox Palace was very satisfied. Hmm, it was indeed more appropriate to bring up this topic when his blockhead finally saw the light.
A moment later, Ying stood up.
Next, it's time for me to give advice on dating, right?
"Fox Palace. You want my sister to marry Liu Bai?"
"Eh?"
Fox Palace was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, Shadow grabbed Fox Palace by the collar with an angry expression, as if he intended to throw him out directly.
Wait... is he really going to marry her off?
What the hell!
Ah Ying is indeed wise in disguise!
Because of his real illness, difficulty in being fooled, and the bias of his close friend, he completely excluded the real person from this matter.
But you know what, after realizing this blind spot, it seems... regardless of whether it will work out, it's incredibly interesting!
Hmm... But then again, what I just said seems to have caused some misunderstanding?
"Stop joking, what right do I have to tell who your sister likes?"
Fox Palace waved his hands repeatedly, signaling Shadow to put him down.
Although I found it amusing, there's a reason why my instincts didn't take it into consideration.
Just like she said, she can't control who she truly likes.
Although she is gentle and weak, she is not an indecisive person.
If she really has feelings for Liu Bai, Hu Zhaigong could give her a push, but if she doesn't...
Sorry, there's nothing I can do. I have a complete scheme to manipulate Raiden Shin, but I have absolutely none for Raiden Shin.
"Gentlemen! Let's talk this out!"
From below, seeing Lei grabbing Fox Palace by the collar, Kujo Sara quickly flew up.
"We can talk things over!"
"..."
Ying silently put down the Fox Palace.
What Fox Palace said made sense; she really couldn't control who her sister would like.
So... why did Fox Palace specifically mention this?
"...Sworn brothers?"
Lei thought about it and realized that since Liu Bai wasn't marrying his sister and forming a marital relationship, he couldn't possibly have any blood relation with them.
So it seems like the only option left is to become sworn brothers?
Are siblings created out of thin air?
"?" Josara looked puzzled.
What do you mean by sworn brotherhood?
Are you two really going to become like sisters?
"..." Fox Palace was speechless.
Your thinking really does go astray!
Tired, destroy it.
Ah Ying, if you're so capable, then go and become sworn brothers with Liu Bai!
Anyway, getting closer to her is a win—no one says a younger brother can't sleep with his step-sister.
...It's truly amazing that this person still hasn't realized that he could make Liu Bai his real brother-in-law even after saying all this.
This person's brain only works intermittently, right?
"Aying".
"……What's wrong?"
"You are a person who only thinks about yourself."
"Hey!?"
Did I say something wrong again?
But there's no need to talk about yourself like that!
Compared to Mr. Liu Bai, yours is completely inexplicable!

"Ah sneeze——!"
"Boss, are you having a cold?"
Gui Naifen thoughtfully handed Liu Bai a piece of paper.
"No, generally speaking, such a sudden sneeze may represent some kind of flag."
What are you saying?
Gui Naifen looked at Liu Bai helplessly.
"The weather has gotten cooler lately, you should wear more layers... Is Miss Ying up to something again?"
Despite what she was saying, Gui Naifen couldn't help but think of the terrible movie she saw that morning.
In terms of the sheer explosiveness of the event, it was even more explosive than Liu Bai stripping the assassin's clothes off.
After all, Liu Bai's act of stripping off clothes was an undisguised perversion.
Where is the shadow?
If you ask Gui Naifen... that's simply perverted and inexplicable.
"It can't be that bad. I feel like what I said this morning was pretty harsh. Ying should behave herself for a while now."
"Is that really the case?" Gui Naifen was deeply skeptical. "By the way, speaking of Miss Ying, is there a mole in our family?"
"Huh? How did you come up with that?"
While searching for flowers, Liu Bai expressed deep doubts about Gui Naifen's conclusion.
"You see, Miss Ying was dressed when she came into my room early this morning, but then she was completely naked in your room..."
"Okay, okay, Xiao Gui, you can shut up now—I didn't take off my clothes because I'm a pervert."
"Don't rush! Listen to the famous reasoning of the great detective, Xiao Gui Zi!"
"Do not listen."
Liu Bai pressed Gui Naifen's head down.
You're a detective my ass, you're just looking for something to say to insult me.
"If you say that again, I'll tear off your black stockings."
"This is workplace harassment."
"Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you."
"Next chapter! Heroine Gui, unable to distinguish between loyalty and treachery, falls into the hands of a villain... Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
Gui Naifen covered her thigh.
"Hmm... I got a message from Ye Lan." Liu Bai casually pinched Gui Naifen's thigh through her black stockings and then looked at his own message.
Another message came from Yelan.
It's about the Lawyer.
The god also sent a message, mainly expressing his gratitude and asking him to come over when he has time.
Clearly, Yelan's storyline, while not part of the main plot, is an important side quest.
It doesn't seem to be that important to the Divine Child.
"Let's go to the Chamber of Commerce. We haven't had a chance to talk to Ye Lan about selling the assassin's clothes yet."
"okay."

"Where did that guy come from? It took him two hours to get here."
Ye Lan sighed as she watched Liu Bai get out of the car at the door, then looked at the sophisticated beauty behind her.
"Well, strategist Su Mei, is that Liu Bai you've been longing for? Doesn't he look more handsome than in the photo?"
"Hmm...that's true."
Su Mei also looked through the window at the man and woman who walked in.
"Is that Miss Gui Naifen over there whom you mentioned?"
"Hmm, she's a pretty nice young lady—don't mistake her for a weakness."
"I've already said, I'm not a bad person."
Su Mei sighed; this misunderstanding was utterly absurd.
"Let's go, we should at least greet them, shouldn't we?"
"Welcome my ass! You're wearing my clothes, why should I go down and greet you with enthusiasm?"
Isn't this a classic case of being caught in a compromising situation?
Even if there's no affair, rumors will spread after this.
Never mind, let this guy come up on his own.
Is this considered acting cute?
"..."
Are you out of your mind?
Ye Lan's gaze towards Su Mei conveyed this information.
Su Mei maintained a polite smile in response.
...This guy is even more troublesome than Ningguang when it comes to dealing with people.
