"Since you address me as Teacher, I will naturally fulfill my responsibilities as your elder."
After bandaging the last wound on her arm, Fu Hua stood up and walked outside.
"You stay here for now. I'll be back soon."
"Okay, Teacher."
After pushing open the door, Fu Hua's figure flickered and disappeared from the spot.
Outside, the Herrscher of Reason, who was still peeking through the window at Hoshimi Miyabi inside, turned around when she heard Fu Hua.
Even though the Herrscher of Reason knew she was being watched, Hoshimi Miyabi didn't seem to care.
She sat obediently, like a primary school student called to the teacher's office.
"Ouch, Old Fossil~ Why are you hitting me?"
The Herrscher of Reason turned to see Fu Hua standing behind her.
Fu Hua crossed her arms and said speechlessly, "Setting aside why I hit you, what are you doing lurking around here?"
"I'm just... I'm just concerned, you know? After all, I'm the one who injured her."
"I see. Then why didn't you go in directly?"
"I, I... Ugh! I'm not talking to you anymore."
Seemingly understanding something, Fu Hua nodded and smiled. "Alright, then I won't ask."
"Hey, Old Fossil, where are you going?"
"Didn't Little Herrscher ruin Miyabi's clothes? I'm going to find her something to wear."
The Herrscher of Reason was stunned for a moment, then recalled the size of Miyabi's chest.
"Then go find my eldest grand-disciple. I bet only her clothes could contain that black-haired fox."
"Is that so? Alright, I'll do as Little Herrscher says."
Fu Hua walked towards the front yard. Little Herrscher stood in place, stomping her feet.
Suddenly, she caught Hoshimi Miyabi looking at her and immediately shouted, "What are you looking at? Want to spar again?"
Hoshimi Miyabi shook her head. "Thank you for your guidance, Herrscher of Reason. I have already recognized your might."
"Hmph, it's good that you know. By the way, are your injuries okay...?"
"Teacher has already helped me treat them. Thank you for your concern, Herrscher of Reason."
"After all, the Old Fossil herself helped you treat your wounds. It would be strange if they weren't okay."
Front yard.
Sushang, who was practicing swordplay with Cuiji, stopped her movements when she saw Fu Hua approaching and hurried over to ask, "Ancestral Master, what do you need me for?"
"Sushang, Little Herrscher ruined Miyabi's clothes. Do you have any spare clothes?"
Sushang scratched her head. "I'll go look in my room... It was all so sudden coming here, and I only received a luggage bag from your System. I don't know if I have any of my old clothes."
That's right, when Sushang and Little Herrscher arrived, they each received an ultimate luxury luggage bag from the System.
"Okay, I'll trouble you."
"Not at all, it's my duty."
Saying that, Sushang returned to her room and opened the large cloth bag. After rummaging through it, she pulled out a yellow and white Daoist robe.
"I haven't worn this in years. Please tell Miss Miyabi not to mind."
"Okay."
Returning to her bedroom, Fu Hua handed the clothes to Hoshimi Miyabi and then went into the courtyard.
Soon, the door opened, and Hoshimi Miyabi emerged, wearing Sushang's yellow and white Daoist robe.
However... something felt a little off.
"How does it feel?"
Fu Hua didn't care about that, as long as it fit. She asked, "Teacher, it fits well, except for the chest area being a bit large. I've already contacted Deputy Section Chief Liu."
She'll bring the finished uniforms over as soon as possible."
Nodding, Fu Hua turned and walked toward the kitchen.
"Mm, that's good. I'll go make dinner. You guys can do whatever you want."
"Okay, Teacher."
"Are we finally having a big meal? Old Fossil, I'll help…"
The Herrscher of Reason trotted happily into the kitchen with them.
However, it wasn't long before…
If you find this book good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.
Under Hoshimi Miyabi's gaze, she was kicked out by Fu Hua.
"Little Herrscher, no messing around!"
"Old Fossil!!!! Let me in~ I'll be good, I won't cause trouble, okay?"
Sitting up, the Herrscher of Reason patted the dirt off her butt and quickly knocked on the kitchen door.
Suddenly, sensing a gaze behind her, her body stiffened.
She quickly turned her head to look.
With a flash, the Herrscher of Reason appeared before Hoshimi Miyabi.
"You didn't see anything just now, right?"
A faint red light flashed.
The already dazed fox became even more bewildered. She nodded blankly.
"Mm, I didn't see anything."
"Heh heh, that's good~ Eh, I've got it!"
The Herrscher of Reason thought of a brilliant idea.
"Tell me, what's the relationship between your Teacher and the Herrscher of Reason?"
Little Herrscher extended her claws and waved them around Hoshimi Miyabi.
"Teacher and the Herrscher of Reason are sisters…"
"Wrong, wrong."
"Are they mother and daughter?"
"Even more wrong! Besides, besides…"
"Are they lovers?"
"That's right, I'm very satisfied with that answer. Now, what is the relationship between the great Herrscher of Reason and your Teacher, Fu Hua?"
The red light flickered more intensely, and just as Hoshimi Miyabi was about to say the answer she had been eagerly awaiting.
Whoosh—!
A ladle flew over, directly smacking the Herrscher of Reason on the head.
Clang—
"Ouch~"
Fu Hua grabbed the Herrscher of Reason by the back of her collar with one hand, lifting her up like a chick.
"Little Herrscher! I told you, don't arbitrarily alter others' consciousness."
"I was wrong, I was wrong, Old Fossil, I was wrong~ I won't do it anymore."
With a wave of her hand, Hoshimi Miyabi, who had been in a daze, returned to normal. She looked at the scene before her.
Tilting her head, she asked in confusion.
"Teacher, what are you and the Herrscher of Reason doing?"
"It's nothing, Miyabi. Go find Sushang and Cuiji. Don't worry about us."
"I understand."
After the black-haired fox left, the Herrscher of Reason swayed her body and said.
"Hey, hey, put me down, Old Fossil. Isn't everything fine now~"
"You'll stay by my side and behave yourself, understand?"
"Tsk, fine, fine, I get it."
Seeing the Herrscher of Reason reluctantly agree, Fu Hua released her and turned to walk back into the kitchen.
Little Herrscher, who followed closely behind, smiled at the corner of her mouth.
Hahaha, this is my ultimate plan—
You wouldn't have guessed it, would you, Banana~ Wolf! Pfft, Old Fossil!
In the kitchen, the Herrscher of Reason was sweating as she looked at the list of dishes written by Sushang on the note by the door.
"Sushang, did you just print out the entire cookbook? Are you making all of these for one meal?"
She nudged Fu Hua, who was washing vegetables beside her, and the Herrscher of Reason said, "No, she's making as many dishes as there are people. If she makes too much, it'll definitely go to waste."
"That makes sense... Hey, hey, Old Fossil.
The button on the back of your apron seems to be loose. Let me re-tie it for you~"
Before Fu Hua could say anything, Little Herrscher quickly moved behind her and unfastened the button that wasn't loose in the first place.
Then, she slowly and carefully re-tied it.
"Are you done yet? I need to start stir-frying."
"Just a moment, almost there. Just about to reach that point."
Hearing this, Fu Hua's expression gradually became calm, then speechless.
She put down the basin of vegetables and the spatula.
Crossing her arms, she quietly waited for the Herrscher of Reason.
Strange, why isn't the Old Fossil moving?
Confused, the Herrscher of Reason looked up, about to ask.
"Inch Punch..."
"Ah--!"
