Little White was held firmly in Er Gou's arms, its head tightly pressed against his chest, only able to make soft moaning sounds.
"Good afternoon, President Naige."
Another call rang out beside Xiaobai.
When Er Gou, whose attention was entirely on Xiao Bai, heard this voice, she immediately turned her head and saw Nia and Chao Da standing not far away, politely bowing and greeting her.
"Oh? Oh?! It's so lively today." Guild Master Er Gou was even more surprised. "Shouldn't you be in Chapter Eight right now? What are you doing here?"
"Ah... well, let Xiaobai explain it to me." Nia pursed her lips and looked at President Er Gou with a dependent gaze.
President Er Gou looked down at Xiao Bai in his arms.
President Er Gou let go, and Xiao Bai finally broke free from his embrace. She took a deep breath, blushed, and smiled at President Er Gou.
"President Sister, it's been a long time."
Footsteps sounded behind them.
Helena came up behind the group and smiled slightly at Xiaobai.
"Admiral Lu Lin, Admiral Nia, and Miss Yamato, please don't stand at the door, come and sit down here."
Hearing Helena's words, everyone quickly moved to the sofa in the center of the hall and sat down one after another.
Helena quickly summoned the staff of the Admiral's Guild, who served tea and snacks to Xiaobai and his group.
"I never expected that Admiral Lu Lin would show up at this time." Helena sat opposite Xiao Bai and his group, sighed helplessly, and said with a complicated feeling.
"Did I come at the wrong time?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
"No, no, no, you've come at just the right time!" President Er Gou quickly interjected, clutching Xiao Bai's head as she said, "If it weren't for you showing up on time, Xiao Bai, I would already be in the clutches of the corrupted Helena!"
"Turning to the dark side? Are you referring to Miss Helena?"
"Hmph, Xiaobai, let me tell you, don't be fooled by Helena's usual demeanor. She can be terrifying when she gets angry!" President Ergou said earnestly to Xiaobai, sounding like someone who had been through it all.
"angry……"
Xiao Bai stared at Helena's beautiful and kind face, and for a long time he couldn't imagine her looking angry.
"Don't listen to the Admiral's nonsense." Helena shook her head and said to Xiaobai, "I'm not angry, nor have I turned evil. It's just that the Admiral is too lazy and sometimes needs someone to give her a little reminder."
"I see." Xiaobai nodded.
"Speaking of which, Admiral Lu Lin, when you came to Chapter Two this time, we didn't see Miss Chao Ya and Miss Chao Ya from the teleportation array..." Helena asked, "So, did the three of you come here on foot?"
"Not entirely. We were teleported to the sea first, and then walked here," Xiaobai replied.
"Hmm?" President Er Gou asked curiously, "Why is it so complicated?"
"It was on my way, I had some things to do in the depths of the sea in the second chapter." Xiaobai scratched his head sheepishly, "Since I'm in the second chapter, I wanted to come and see the guild leader, so I came."
"Waaah, Xiaobai, you came at the perfect time!" President Ergou collapsed into Xiaobai's arms, hugging Xiaobai's waist, and said with a pitiful expression.
"President Sister, what happened?" Xiaobai asked, stroking President Ergou's hair.
"There's so much work... I can't possibly finish it all..."
President Er Gou cried and fussed in Xiao Bai's arms.
Seeing this scene unfold, Helena, standing nearby, rubbed her forehead and sighed repeatedly.
Xiao Bai listened as President Er Gou and Helena recounted what had just happened.
After listening, Xiaobai understood a lot.
"I see. It's because the president stayed at my house for too long, resulting in a backlog of work. Now that you're back at your post, you can't finish it all in a short time, right?" Xiaobai said with a smile, her hands clasped together.
“Admiral Lu Lin, it’s actually still possible to finish it, it just needs some time,” Helena said apologetically. “It’s all because the Admiral is so inconsistent in her work that the job hasn’t been finished yet.”
"It's alright, it's alright." Xiaobai shook her head. After thinking for a while, she smiled at Helena and said, "Well... since that's the case, it's perfect that I'm here too. How about I help finish these tasks?"
"Such a good thing!" President Er Gou instantly perked up and quickly looked up.
"Admiral, don't make things worse." Helena pressed down on the Second Dog Chairman's head, pushing him back onto Little White's lap.
Helena looked at Xiaobai apologetically.
“Admiral Lu Lin, we appreciate your kindness, but there’s really no need for you to help us. You’re already very busy…” Helena said. “The reason the Admiral’s Guild has accumulated so much work is because the Admiral has been neglecting her duties. How can you, Admiral Lu Lin, bear this bitter fruit?”
"It's alright..." Xiaobai smiled upon hearing this and said to Helena, "The president is like family to me, so it's no big deal for me to help out. Besides, the reason why the president has so much work piled up is probably because I dragged her to play in my naval base for too long, right? So, I actually bear a lot of responsibility, so if you don't mind, let me help out."
Chapter 3248 The Final Form of the King of Scrolls
“Most importantly, the operation rights for Chapter Two originally belonged to the Newbie Town Hall, right?” Xiaobai added with a smile. “Since it’s the Newbie Town Hall’s property, I have an even greater obligation to solve any work-related problems, right?”
Xiao Bai gave several reasons for helping.
These reasons were so persuasive that even Helena couldn't refute them and could only stand there dumbfounded.
"Xiaobai...you're so kind!"
President Er Gou quickly hugged Xiao Bai's waist, feeling deeply moved as if he were hugging a great god.
Xiao Bai smiled and lowered his head, stroking Er Gou's hair and giving her a slight smile.
"Oh... Admiral Lu Lin... you are really... too kind." In the end, Helena could only say this to Xiaobai with half gratitude and half helplessness.
"It's alright, it's alright." Xiaobai stood up and said to Helena, "Let's not delay, take me to the president's office."
"Won't you stay a little longer?"
"Let's finish the work first."
"Alas...we were not hospitable enough...we are very sorry."
"We're all family, so don't say things like that."
"Ah."
Xiao Bai and Helena both stood up. Before leaving, Helena glanced at President Er Gou.
President Er Gou quickly sat up straight, sweat beading on his forehead.
"Admiral, I'm leaving the task of entertaining Admiral Nia and Miss Super Yamato to you," Helena said. "Admiral Lu Lin and I are going to the office to take care of some official business... Please take good care of them while you're here, and don't neglect them."
"Understood!" President Er Gou quickly raised his hand.
Helena and Xiaobai walked towards the office not far away. The two entered the office one after the other and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The office was quiet.
Nobody knows what they did inside.
President Er Gou breathed a sigh of relief. She clutched her chest, looked at the office door, and then turned her head to look at Nia and Chao Yahe, who were sitting on either side of her with restrained expressions.
"I'm a little nervous," President Er Gou said, trying to ease the tension.
"Um...yes, yes..." Nia said shyly.
"My most important ship girl is alone in a room with the person most important to me right now." President Er Gou patted his chest and looked up at the sky. "I wonder if they'll do something to betray me in the room... How exciting."
“…” Nia.
"..." Super Yamato.
President Er Gou's car was going too fast; Nia and Chao Dahe couldn't catch up with her at all.
President Er Gou lowered his head and saw that both sides were quiet, with Nia and Chao Yamato blushing and not saying a word.
"Would you like something to eat? I'll have the kitchen prepare something for you."
"No, no need..."
"Want to see a movie?"
"No, no need..."
"..."
The atmosphere was inexplicably a little stiff.
President Er Gou picked up his teacup and took a sip.
The tea has gotten a little cold after all this time.
But perhaps because of the different atmosphere, President Er Gou felt that the tea didn't taste so bad anymore.
As Er Gou, the chairman, lowered his head to drink his tea, his gaze drifted towards Chao Yahei, and he suddenly noticed the ring on Chao Yahei's hand.
"Ok?"
President Er Gou was taken aback. She looked thoughtfully at Chao Yahe, who was bowing his head and remaining silent.
After a while.
"Super Yamato!" President Er Gou called out.
"Hmm?" Super big and looking up.
"Did you get a new ring?" Guild Master Er Gou asked curiously. "Was the old one broken?"
"Ah... um..." Chao Da subconsciously withdrew her hand, pressed the hand with the ring into the palm of the other hand, and nodded slightly, "It's... not completely broken... the admiral gave me a new one."
"Haha, has Xiaobai finally come to his senses and is going to name your wedding ship after you?" President Er Gou said half-jokingly.
"..." Chao Da blushed and nodded shyly.
"..." Now it was President Er Gou's turn to be stunned. She opened her mouth and looked at Chao Yamato, whose cheeks were slightly red. "Really? You're Shiro's married ship now?"
"..." Super Big and Slightly nodded.
"Then..." President Er Gou quickly leaned closer. She glanced at Nia on the other side, then carefully leaned close to Chao Da and whispered in their ears, "So, did you and Xiao Bai... do 'that'?"
"...?"
Chao Da and the others stared blankly at President Er Gou.
President Er Gou, with his back to Nia, made several gestures towards Chao Dahe that cannot be described in detail.
As Chao Dahe watched, she suddenly stiffened, her face turning as red as if it could emit smoke. Her gaze darted around, her expression a mixture of shyness and nervousness, and her breathing became rapid.
Ok……
Although the super-large text didn't say anything, it seems to have already given the answer.
President Er Gou looked at Chao Yamato with emotion, patted him on the shoulder, and shook her head.
"As expected of Xiaobai, he's really good." President Ergou said with admiration.
President Er Gou left Chao Dahe's side and moved closer to Nia.
President Er Gou first looked at Nia's finger for a long time, and after not seeing the ring, he stared at Nia thoughtfully for a while.
"Little Nia," President Er Gou called out.
“I’m here!” Nia quickly replied.
"Little Nia, how far have things progressed between you and Xiaobai?" Guild Master Ergou asked.
"Eh? Me...me?" Nia pointed to herself, instinctively shrugging her shoulders and lowering her head with a happy smile. "Well...it's alright...Little White has helped me so much, I can't live without her for the rest of my life..."
President Er Gou stroked his chin, looked at Nia's innocent and hopeful smile, and suddenly sighed.
Ugh……
Compared to the Super-Big Three, Nia's progress is far behind.
You still need to work harder, girl.
President Er Gou patted Nia on the shoulder and gave her a thumbs up.
"Go for it, little Nia!"
"Huh? Oh... I, I'll do my best!" Nia looked blankly at the president's thumb. Although she didn't understand what it meant, she vaguely felt that what she was talking about was related to Xiaobai, so she responded repeatedly and clenched her two snow-white fists.
President Er Gou sat back down in the center of the sofa.
She looked at Nia and Super Yamato, who were standing motionless on either side, and then thought about the task Helena had just assigned her: not to neglect the guests.
If the atmosphere gets this awkward... wouldn't that be considered neglecting them?
If Helena finds out, she'll probably give me a piece of her mind again.
No, I need to think of a way to liven things up.
President Er Gou's brain was working at lightning speed.
