Chapter 91

"Ah, Sister Fox asked me to help you first. She said she'll come back later."

"We just met three incredibly stylish and handsome men and beautiful women! I was almost stunned."

Luoluo fiddled with the spice bottle in her hand. Wow, she thought, "They use up the spices so quickly!"

No wonder Sister Tong had been calling for help earlier; it seems business is booming today.

"Huh? Are you referring to that brief commotion earlier?"

Ye Luotong asked with interest after hearing Luoluo's words.

Could it be that another well-known cosplayer has come here? Otherwise, that commotion wouldn't have happened before.

"Yes, it's such a pity you didn't see it before, Sister Tong."

"Those aren't cosplayers, those people are just tourists visiting here, but those three are really, really cool!!"

Luoluo squeezed the seasoning onto the cake and waved her hands in an exaggerated manner in front of Ye Luotong.

All eyes were on the three women; they instantly became the most dazzling figures in the entire comic convention center.

"It's a real shame I didn't see it."

Ye Luotong raised an eyebrow in surprise, surprised that Luoluo could be so excited.

"Yes, that's such a shame. I think two of the older sisters are just as good as you and Sister Hu!"

Luoluo licked the cream off her hand; she had no intention of belittling Sister Tong and Sister Fox.

But those two women were indeed very special, no less than Ye Luotong and Jiu Hu, and even superior to them.

"Really? Well, I'm a little interested, but I obviously don't have the time to look at handsome men and beautiful women right now."

Ye Luotong shrugged, expressing her regret, but unfortunately she still needed to take care of the business here.

Otherwise, she really wanted to go and see those people who could earn the praise of both Luoluo and Jiu Hu.

After all, Luoluo's standards are very high, and gaining this child's approval is no easy task.

"Sister Tong! Three milkshakes!"

"Sister Tong, everyone is already quite busy. Why don't we let everyone take a break for a while?"

The maids brought Ye Luotong a new menu, beads of sweat glistening on their foreheads.

There are simply too few people here. If they continue working at this high intensity, they might suffer from heatstroke and faint.

The shortage of manpower meant they would be so busy they wouldn't have time to rest, and the high demands of the guests were already overwhelming them.

"Well, it seems like this is the only way."

Ye Luotong rubbed her aching temples and smiled helplessly. These otaku are really crazy.

This maid stand was just a spur-of-the-moment idea from Jiu Hu, but the final development was so amazing.

"Tell the guests briefly to put up a sign saying 'It's a break' so they can rest for a while."

Ye Luotong stretched out her slightly stiff hands; her fingers were a little sore from working for a long time.

"But the comic convention was indeed very interesting."

Ye Luotong sat on the chair behind her, silently watching the cosplayers and tourists coming and going, and smiled faintly.

She used to love going to anime conventions, and when she was still a college student, she was a well-known cosplayer in the community.

"But time waits for no one."

Ye Luotong crossed her legs and stretched vigorously, revealing her beautiful body curves.

However, the slightly mismatched top revealed Ye Luotong's small belly under these circumstances, causing her to panic.

She hurriedly covered her lower abdomen and cautiously scanned her surroundings. She breathed a slight sigh of relief when she saw that no one had noticed.

"Am I no longer able to fit into young people's clothes...?"

Ye Luotong touched her slightly chubby belly and muttered to herself, "Should I lose some weight?"

She seems to have been overindulging in desserts lately, as she has gained two or three pounds.

Beep beep beep...

The notification sound from her phone disrupted her thoughts.

Ye Luotong tapped on the screen and looked at the messages, but the more she read, the uglier her expression became.

"I met three very interesting tourists, all of them incredibly handsome men and beautiful women!"

"They were very interested in the comic convention, so I temporarily became their guide."

"But don't worry, I'll take them around for a bit longer and then come back to help you, so for now, I can only ask you to hang in there a little longer~"

Upon seeing the message from Jiu Hu, Ye Luotong took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed her inner anger.

A beautiful girl shouldn't get angry. Calm down, you need to calm down. Ye Luotong, you can do it.

Isn't this just Jiu Hu's usual way of slacking off? I should probably get used to Jiu Hu's personality by now.

When has the other party ever truly played a role? Hasn't she been the one doing all the work all along?

Don't be angry, don't be angry. I've already figured out Jiu Hu's tricks.

Oh, by the way, please prepare four servings of yogurt pudding for me. I might be taking these tourists with me when I visit.

Ding-dong, a new message appeared before Ye Luotong's eyes.

The anger that she had finally managed to suppress suddenly surged back up as if a bucket of hot water had been poured over it.

"What on earth is that woman, Jiu Hu, trying to do to me?!"

Unable to contain herself, Ye Luotong angrily turned off her phone.

How many times has this happened? How many times has that woman, Jiu Hu, stood her up? She really shouldn't have agreed to come and help in the first place.

"Sister Tong... are you alright...?"

Luoluo, with a slightly sullen face, seemed hesitant to approach Ye Luotong.

She knew that Sister Tong was angry with Sister Hu; the two of them had never gotten along well whenever they met.

Although she knew the two had a good relationship and was used to this situation, Tong-jie's anger was truly terrifying.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just a little excited. Did I scare you?"

"I have a bad temper, I'm sorry."

After realizing that she had frightened Luoluo, Ye Luotong apologized profusely.

She has a rather fiery temper, especially when she's with that ugly woman, Jiu Hu, she's prone to getting angry.

But there's nothing we can do about it; who can blame us for being so Jiu Hu?

"It's alright, it's alright. It's understandable that Sister Tong is angry. Sister Hu knows this place is busy but doesn't come to help. Luoluo will also help Sister Tong scold her later."

"But Sister Tong, do you often lose your temper like this at school? Won't that give the students a bad impression of you?"

Luoluo quickly waved her little hand to indicate that she didn't care about such things.

She was just curious whether the students in the academy would misunderstand Tong Jie because she was so scary when she was angry.

For example, they might see Hitomi-neechan as a terrifying and serious evil teacher.

"Those kids at school, huh... they're definitely afraid of me..."

Ye Luotong smiled slightly after thinking of the group of kids in her class.

She was still quite intimidating in front of those kids; she still had some prestige.

"Wow, Hitomi-neechan is amazing! She's so young, yet she can already command the respect of the students..."

"Of course, as a teacher, you should earn the respect and awe of your students. In my class, there isn't a single student who dares to disobey me..."

Ye Luotong suddenly stopped talking and fell into deep thought, a hint of frustration appearing on her delicate face.

Wait a minute, she seems to have forgotten about one of the most special problem students.

Indeed, the students in the class respected and revered her, but there was one variable that she couldn't control.

Forget about respect, that problem child didn't even regard her as a teacher.

"Sister Tong? What's wrong?"

Seeing Ye Luotong's face suddenly darken, Luoluo tilted her head in confusion.

"Ah, it's nothing, I was just thinking about something else."

Ye Luotong forced a stiff smile and dismissed the idea of continuing the conversation.

Wu Liang was the only problem student who didn't take her, the homeroom teacher, seriously.

The other party not only did not treat her as a teacher, but also treated her like a peer, joking with her and showing no respect for her as a teacher.

"That brat Wu Liang..."

Thinking of what had happened in her office not long ago, Ye Luotong clenched her fists with some resentment.

That brat actually found out my secret about liking emoticons...

Fortunately, that brat didn't know he had such a secret.

If that brat finds out her secret that she was (formerly) a cosplayer, she'll never be able to hold her head high in front of Wu Liang again.

"Luckily, Wu Liang is a social butterfly and not very interested in ACG culture..."

Ye Luotong rubbed her slightly sore neck and looked around at the dazzling array of anime merchandise with satisfaction. Otaku culture is truly amazing.

This secret must never be known to the students at the school.

Especially, she couldn't let Wu Liang, who already knew one of her secrets, know...

Chapter Thirty-One: The Perfect Maid?

Following Jiu Hu, he visited each venue. This was his first time attending such a large-scale comic convention.

As for Milutin, needless to say, he visited almost every single stall available.

If it weren't for the fact that there were so many items that it was difficult to buy them all, Milutin might have bought all the merchandise she liked.

"This venue is much bigger than I expected."

Feeling the occasional gazes from those around him, Wu Liang shrugged and spoke awkwardly.

Just now, quite a few well-known cosplayers came to take photos with him, but they were all scared away by the chill emanating from Yao Shi.

As for the boys who wanted to take photos with Yao Shi and the others, it goes without saying that Yao Shi's cold gaze was enough to instill fear in them.

"This year's comic convention was very large in scale, and the organizers provided great support."

"The number of cosplayers and visitors is several times greater than at previous anime conventions."

"You're very lucky this time; you'll see many things here that you wouldn't normally see."

Looking at the crowds coming and going around him, Jiu Hu realized that this comic convention was on a very large scale.

A large portion of the well-known figures in the industry came here, which immediately brought the atmosphere of the comic convention to its peak.

Moreover, this anime convention will last for three full days, giving cosplayers and industry insiders plenty of time to have fun.

"It's really lively, and there are many familiar faces here."

Wu Liang recalled the Saint Seiya and Sailor Moon characters he had previously brushed past.

There are so many Easter eggs in this world; the game developers really put a lot of thought into it.

At the time, I didn't notice these messages that the game developers had deliberately left for the players while I was playing the game.

But after fully entering this world, Wu Liang discovered countless Easter eggs around him.

Whether it's the history of his previous world or those familiar anime characters, these are all gifts from the game development team to the players.

However, thanks to these hidden Easter eggs, Wu Liang was able to feel some warmth in this unfamiliar world.

"Miss, do you find the comic convention interesting?"

Jiu Hu turned his head and looked at the three people in front of him with a smile on his face.
