Elysia: Shall We All Go Mountain Climbing?!
Don't you have one?
"Okay, then I'll take it as if I do." Yaqing blurted out, "President, actually the plot of that short drama was written by Welt Yang, and has nothing to do with me personally."
"I'm not stupid, Yaqing Schariac."
Otto was obviously not stupid. Welt Young had never even met Kallen, so how could he know that Kallen and Sakura were best friends, and how could he know that Kallen liked rice balls made by Sakura?
There are too many details in this short drama that Welt Young doesn't know, while on the contrary, there is only one person who knows Kallen and Sakura, and that is Yaqing.
"Okay, I understand."
Yaqing was helpless.
That sense of helplessness made Otto feel as if he had truly been treated like a fool.
"Yaqing, I think we, as teachers and students, should be completely honest with each other."
"No way, I don't want to go for a bath with you like Joyce, I'm not used to it," Yaqing refused directly.
"So there's nothing to talk about?" Otto's tone suddenly turned cold, and then, as if he had grasped Yaqing's lifeline, he said casually, "The people that Schicksal sent to the branch office can be put on hold for now."
"You!"
Yaqing became anxious.
A hint of smugness flashed in Otto's eyes.
Trying to fight me?
Little fox, you're still too green.
"Heh." Yaqing sneered.
Otto sensed something was off about the reaction and instinctively asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"It's simple. If you don't send anyone, I'll just cut your part of the story short and let Otto Apocalypse die as a pure clown villain."
Yaqing put her legs up on the desk.
"You're too ruthless," Otto said through gritted teeth.
"You're the best teacher," Yaqing said casually.
Otto compromised as expected. For him, nothing, not even Kallen Schicksal Headquarters, was as important as the storyline of his tree-climbing.
Even if Yaqing negotiated with Otto to demand that the Schicksal Financial Group change its name to Schariac, Otto would agree without hesitation.
In Otto's view, letting Yaqing succeed him would be like finding a slave for his granddaughter. Theresa could not work, not have to worry about the board of directors, and could continue to squander funds. Why not?
"My dear CEO, I wish you a good night's sleep." Yaqing smiled and hung up the phone, suddenly feeling motivated to write the script, and a joyful feeling welled up from within.
Meanwhile, on the other side of Earth, in Central Europe, Otto wasn't in such a good mood. In order not to disturb Karen's sleep, he deliberately went to the bathroom to make a phone call, and was even pinned down by that little fox for a while.
"Hateful."
Otto was so angry he couldn't vent it, and he didn't even dare to speak loudly for fear of waking Kallen.
Pleasant times always pass so quickly, and it was time to leave work again. Yaqing had finished writing three-fifths of the script. As Durandal's uncle, he was extremely concerned about her personal web series.
They even stitched together "Misty Capital Holiday," which was originally intended to be a standalone web series, and the short drama "Inheritance."
"I'm so tired!"
Yaqing stretched.
In his opinion, writing a script was not even a third as tiring as playing against Otto.
I got up and left the office, heading to the dubbing department floor.
While other departments are working hard on the next movie, the dubbing department seems extremely idle, not in a hurry to dub the characters before the modeling is finished.
Little Knowledge Shi sat listlessly at his workstation, glancing at the clock every half minute.
"Time is passing so slowly, why isn't it time to get off work yet?"
"Yeah, it's really boring."
Kiana was also lying on the table.
The voice acting department, which other interns at the St. Freya Academy envied, was looked down upon by them.
Compared to the voice acting department, one of them wanted to go to the modeling department, and the other wanted to go to the post-production department.
"Let's go, it's time to get off work~, I'll take you guys to get some skewers."
Yaqing appeared at the door and made a gesture to the two of them.
"Great!" Little Knowledge excitedly pounced over.
"Is this really okay? It's only four in the afternoon."
With Mei not around, Kiana's mind reconnected, and she hesitated. She and Bianka shared the same thought: they didn't want the people in the company to know that she was a relative, thus alienating them from her.
But from another perspective, people all over the world would probably think Kiana got the job through connections.
"So, do you want to eat it?"
Yaqing knows her niece all too well.
Sure enough, upon hearing Yaqing's words, Kiana's mind was filled with images of delicious food, and her mouth watered involuntarily, which she wiped with the back of her hand.
"Think!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get off work! I'm the boss, what I say goes."
"Great! Long live Uncle Yaqing!"
Little Knowledge and Kiana shouted happily at the same time.
Shub watched the three figures leave, feeling utterly helpless.
A new employee walked over, and perhaps not seeing Yaqing, deliberately said sourly, "Sister Shub, aren't you going to do anything about those two? Leaving their workstations during work hours to go out for food..."
Shub chuckled, "The boss took him out. If you think it's unfair, you can go upstairs to Yaqing's office and talk to him personally."
The new employee fell silent.
Chapter 241 Elysia: Let's all go hiking?!
The sweltering summer air is quietly passing, and the crisp autumn air is about to arrive. Taking advantage of Eden's return, Elysia suggests going hiking.
"Climb mountains?!"
When Mobius mentioned mountain climbing, she immediately turned pale. She preferred staying in her room and enjoying the blissful life of a homebody to going out for a hike.
Yaqing's reaction was exactly the same as Mobius's.
He'd rather be a lazy dog lying in bed.
Before Mobius and Yaqing could refuse, Su nodded and said, "Indeed, going hiking is good for your health, staying in the room all the time..."
Sue was halfway through her sentence when she noticed Kevin was giving her constant eye signals.
Su Miao understood and glanced at Yaqing, who was already glaring at him.
"How about it? How about it? The weather is so nice today! Shall we all go hiking together?" Elysia looked at everyone with a cute expression.
"I agree with what Elysia said." Eden looked at Elysia gently, as if whatever she said was right.
"Either is fine." Mei didn't mind. If she didn't go hiking, she would think about going somewhere else to wander around.
Upon hearing Mei speak, Kevin quickly stood up and echoed her.
Apart from Yaqing and Mobius, only the taciturn Kosma remained silent.
"... Oh my god..."
Seeing that Kosma had agreed, Elysia skillfully ignored the two unexpected attempts to refuse and exclaimed happily, "Great! Let's go hiking together! Camping in the wild! Bonfire party!"
Responding to Elysia's invitation, Kalpas opened the refrigerator's "backup hidden energy," took out the meat inside, skillfully sliced it, and skewered it.
The Golden Courtyard is fully equipped for camping. People often like to browse websites and buy all sorts of random things, while most of the items in the courtyard are stored in the underground storage room.
"Cough cough."
Yaqing patted the dust that was swirling around her and couldn't help but cough, saying, "How long has it been since this place was cleaned?"
Kevin took a mask out of his pocket and put it on, saying, "This storage room hasn't been entered in years, let alone cleaned."
The two of them struggled to find the tents among the messy clutter, and it took them almost half an hour to finally separate five tents from the corner.
"There really are tents?!"
Yaqing stared incredulously at the five tents, all covered in a thin layer of dust, and asked, "Who bought these things? Did they just throw them into the storage room without ever using them?"
When Yaqing took out the tent, she could clearly feel that even the protective film hadn't been removed. If you wiped off the dust, it would be 90% new even if you sold it.
"Uh... it must have been Elysia who bought it, right?" Kevin wasn't sure either.
Inside the storage room, they were already dirty, so they didn't care about the dust on the tent. They tucked the tent under their arms and headed upstairs.
"Huh?! You two... went to fight?" Little Knowledge stared in astonishment at Yaqing and Kevin, who were covered in dirt, their shirts stained with black and gray dust.
Yaqing threw the tent on the floor and said irritably, "Did you guys forget about the storage room? When I went in, I thought I had traveled back to 18th-century London."
The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
Eden then realized that the Golden Courtyard's underground level not only contained a wine cellar but also a storage room.
Pardo was startled, her eyes darting around.
Kevin, panting, tried to sit on the sofa.
"Stop! Don't sit down!"
Blanca quickly interrupted him.
Kevin was startled.
"Why don't you go upstairs and take a shower first? If you just sit on the sofa, the sofa covers will have to be washed again," Blanca explained.
Kevin and Yaqing exchanged a glance.
I almost burst out laughing.
They looked like they'd come back from begging.
"Kevin, you..."
"Yaqing, you..."
The two suddenly realized what had happened, feeling a little ashamed and embarrassed, and fled upstairs.
Vill-V came downstairs and asked in confusion, "I just saw two big black rats come upstairs. Did you see them?"
A big black rat?
The atmosphere suddenly became much quieter.
Even Kalpas's hands, which were chopping meat, stopped.
Then bursts of laughter erupted.
Hahahaha!
Little Knowledge laughed wildly, her little hands gripping the soft sofa tightly.
"Sister Vill-V, those are Brother Yaqing and Boss Kevin," Pardo said straightforwardly.
Mobius hadn't intended to laugh, but upon hearing Pardo's explanation, he couldn't help but smile, his red lips curving into a smile.
Elysia, Eden, Sakura, and Rin went out to buy supplies for tomorrow's camping trip, while Fu Hua and Blanca were wiping the dust off the tent.
"Hey! Old fogey, did you hear? The TV said there will be a meteor shower tomorrow, but it seems like it will rain tomorrow." Little Knowledge ate watermelon, which was quite expensive in the Arctic.
"Rain?" Fu Hua looked up and asked worriedly, "If it rains, we still have to go hiking and camping?"
"Who knows? Weather forecasts are never accurate," Little Knowledge said nonchalantly.
Vill-V mysteriously pulled out a brand-new invention from behind his back.
"Hehe! Enjoy, the latest invention!"
