Zongman: Kulaixiku, resurrection!

Although Deng-chan looks clumsy and stupid, more like a penguin than a high school girl, her hands are still quite skillful——

Thinking of this, Kita felt relieved and no longer paid attention to Xiaodeng, who was concentrating on tying a string of beautiful pearls with fine catgut thread, and was about to put his eyes into the eye of a needle. Instead, he smiled foolishly and somewhat provocatively at Lixi, who looked very unhappy but had to stay behind the counter and gritted his teeth because he still had to work.

"Deng-chan is very obedient when he's with me. I wonder how Deng-chan and Li Xi get along with each other?"

They sneak around like that, sneaking around like that, yet still being complacent in front of their victim, Riki. Should we say that Kita and Ryo have learned bad things?

"Hmph...that's because Deng is a good person. She listens to you out of respect. Don't think she likes you that much."

In other words, stepping on the dirty table in front of other customers would get criticized by Kasumi-senpai, otherwise Riki would have taken off her apron and gone out to fight with the mean Kita, and then beat out the other bastards under the command of the doctors who came to RiNG to get free drinks.

"Lixi-chan, this is for you."

A string of symmetrical small pearl necklaces as white as jade was handed to Li Xi, who was about to explode, by a pair of fair hands whose fingertips were red from long hours of delicate craftsmanship. The cute eyes like those of a little animal made Li Xi calm down immediately.

Just like a pressure cooker that was about to explode being doused with cold water, the fiery Lixi softened with a squeak. Hai Ling, who was sitting beside him with her chin propped up reading the music, couldn't help but look over and take a closer look at her good friend.

"Thank...thank you for the lamp, it's beautiful."

After Li Xi put on the necklace, which didn't quite fit her figure and was therefore dipping a little into her bra, with a blushing face, she turned twice in front of the light. The teardrop mole at the corner of her eye and the curves that even her coat couldn't hide made this already charming girl look like a medieval noblewoman. The necklace was like a star adorning Li Xi's round moon...

...Well, it seems a bit inappropriate. I'll just hang it around Lixi's neck and not break into pieces. But isn't the size a bit too big?

However, Lixi would not say something that would make Deng sad, such as "It doesn't fit my neck at all, so please take it back or throw it away." He just met Deng's expectant eyes with some retreat.

"How do I...look?"

"Lixi-chan, very beautiful, I like it!"

Deng used Charm on Li Xi, and the effect was outstanding!

So, the delighted Li Xi not only didn't bother to argue with Kita about living with Deng, but also announced that today's expenses would be paid for by Miss Shiina Li Xi... This was only for his friends. If he really treated everyone present, Li Xi would definitely go bankrupt.

However, what surprised Li Xi was that Deng was immediately busy weaving the next necklace. Not only was it not the same white pearl necklace as her own, but judging by the large and small bags of pearls of various colors around Yili, who was conscripted to help, it seemed that Deng was planning to do a bigger job.

"Deng-chan, I'm already very happy to have the necklace you gave me. There's no need to..."

"It's for the doctor, not for Riki-chan."

Well, it turns out that I was just being too sentimental - Li Xi retreated behind the counter in a sullen manner and fiddled with her juicer. That greasy expression on her face definitely made Hai Ling turn her head, because Hai Ling herself was also a little speechless after seeing it.

Mana contacted the shuttle bus responsible for picking up the girls and it would arrive at the entrance of RiNG at around 5:30 in the afternoon. The girls from mygo and EC had to change into their performance costumes on the bus, and after a simple makeup and sound check and equipment debugging at the Budokan, they would immediately start their performance. So today, Chef Lixi was already thinking about whether to order takeout, as he was not used to using RiNG's kitchen.

However, Hailing is used to being alone, so she is happy to accompany me. If Mana and the others have no objection, I don't mind giving her an extra pair of chopsticks.

However, there is still some time before I get off work. Kasumi-senpai said that if we help her cover the day after tomorrow, she should ask her friend to bring hamburger meat to treat everyone. I guess he has already arrived with a large insulated box.

"Everyone, I'm back—"

Hong Xia has been disappearing these days. He disappeared immediately after bringing the girls from Fanxing. Now he appears in front of everyone with a small suitcase. The expression on his face shows that he is very proud, as if he has accomplished something great.

"Good afternoon, Hongxia," Liang said, still immersed in the game in his hands, just a halfhearted greeting. "Want to play games together?"

"Don't play that game anymore, I have a way to make money here..." Hong Xia wanted to tease Xie Liang, so she leaned close to Liang's ear pretending to be mysterious, just like the guy who introduced people to selling powder in the alleys of Shibuya.

Then Xie Liang decisively chose to abandon her teammate whom she had never met before, turned off her phone and put it in her pocket, then pressed the somewhat frightened Hong Xia on the soft sofa. Their faces were so close that Hong Xia could smell that Liang had just drunk iced grape American coffee... and added some fragrant fruit wine. She would report this to the doctor later.

"Hongxia, I like you."

"I know, you've said this to me many times."

Especially last night, when boss Xingge, who accompanied Miss Juli to get drunk, ignored his brain and the doctor's advice. He not only allowed Xieliang to drink, but also let her pester Hongxia, who didn't drink, and made her drunk. Hongxia had heard the words "Hongxia, I love you" hundreds of times and had become completely desensitized to them. Even if a doctor said such words to her, she probably wouldn't be moved.

Really, how come Liang has the habit of talking nonsense when drunk? I was actually quite touched by him last night.

"Then please skip all the red tape and just give me the money if you can. The more the better... Ouch!"

I was taught a lesson by Hongxia.

"Don't just stand there, everyone come here."

Ailiang TV was just a small episode, the main task was to ask everyone to sign the contract - Hongxia opened the small suitcase, inside were more than a dozen contracts written in black and white and a pen, each contract was stamped with the seal of the cultural department of the Fengchuan Group's subsidiary organization.

The presence of a seal means that these things are legally binding. Anyone can make a fortune by selling them to anyone. As long as they can sign their own name, they can enjoy the financial support of the Toyokawa Group for decades.

But no one felt anything. Although no one knew how Hongxia got connected with the Toyokawa family, no one knew why she would bring this kind of thing for everyone to sign.

Do you want Xiangzi to shoulder our future?

But we already have a doctor.

After Hongxia briefly explained the conditions and benefits offered by the Fengchuan family, she concluded:

"All in all, everyone's life is no different from before, except that it's more secure. No one complains about having more money, right?"

Somehow, Deng remembered what the doctor said last night -

[I like girls who can survive on their own...who have the courage to face life's difficulties alone...]

"Okay!" So, in front of everyone, Deng took the pen first and quickly wrote his name at the end.

"I...want to be an independent girl. I don't want to be hated by the doctor!"
