Yes, Lady Funina!

"what happened?"

This scoundrel is asking a question he already knows the answer to!

"No... Ugh~" Just as Funina was about to get angry, Richard started attacking her again.

The room fell silent, with only two uneven breaths remaining.

Richard smoothly took her rosy lips into his mouth, and apart from two soft "woo-woo" sounds of resistance from Funina, he did not encounter any real resistance.

As for Fu Ningna, she seemed to have been paralyzed, her intelligence vanished, and her mind went completely blank.

Fu Ningna's face flushed red. She grabbed Richard's collar, trying to push him away, but she couldn't muster any strength and could only helplessly let him take liberties with her.

This time, Richard still failed to break through Furina's defenses.

It's not that Funina's defenses were particularly strong, but rather that Funina, as a novice, simply lacked the awareness to back it up. Even when Richard repeatedly tried to break through, Funina remained clenched in her teeth, leaving no opening whatsoever.

Faced with such stubborn resistance, Richard had no choice but to temporarily abandon the attack and wait for Funina to desensitize before proceeding.

"Lady Funina, relax." Richard said this in a manner reminiscent of a big bad wolf coaxing a little white rabbit to open the door.

Relax? How do I relax?

Funina couldn't relax at all; who can relax when being kissed?

Richard is asking for way too much!

I haven't even investigated her for disrespecting the water god yet, and she dares to make demands of her? Really... sob~

Why are you here again!

After several rounds, Funina was panting heavily, her cheeks flushed, looking as beautiful as peach petals.

However, as the number of sessions increased, Funina was clearly less nervous than at the beginning and gradually adapted to Richard's rhythm.

At this point, she didn't mention pursuing the crime of disrespect anymore. Richard was clearly an outlaw. He talked about Lady Funina, but he didn't actually treat her as an adult at all. He just wanted to use her name to do things that only adults could do.

It's just too much.

As Funina was thinking about these things, her posture changed from sitting side by side with Richard to straddling Richard, with her legs spread apart like a duck, and her hands changed from pressing against his chest to wrapping around his neck.

Her loose loungewear had become a little wrinkled, and due to friction, it had been pulled up slightly, revealing her cute little belly button.

"Lady Funina..."

Here we go again. Now, to Fulina, the words "Lady Fulina" are the clarion call for Richard's attack. Apart from the first two sneak attacks, every time Richard utters these five words, her mouth will be gagged.

It was as if Richard had no intention of getting a response from her at all—no, it should be said that he had no intention of getting a verbal response from her.

Don't listen to what he says, but look at what he does.

Finally, after this incident, Funina couldn't help but speak up, "Don't call me 'sir'... Waaah... Waaah~"

This time Richard didn't call for his master. The sudden attack, coupled with Funina's words, finally gave Richard an opportunity. He broke through her teeth and went straight for her tongue.

I told you not to call me "adult," why did you even omit the "Funinna" at the beginning?

But Funina didn't have time to think about such things anymore; she quickly realized that this kiss was clearly different from the last one.

The sensory stimulation from sticking out one's tongue versus not sticking out one's tongue is worlds apart.

Let's put it this way: that one before didn't count as a first kiss at all; this one is.

Funina's tense body suddenly went limp, and she looked like a soggy cream puff, her outer shell no longer as crisp as when it was fresh out of the oven, but soft and chewy.

……

After a long while, their lips parted, and the girl's face was as beautiful as a peach blossom, her eyes filled with mist and shimmering with the joy of spring. After Richard removed his lips, she subconsciously reached out to explore.

Human desires are endless, and Funina is the best example of this.

However, Richard knew this was the end of the day. It wasn't that Richard was playing games with Funina; after all, he was in a very uncomfortable state himself, like an arrow on a bowstring, but he had to endure it because—

Fucarus is back.

Richard sensed a familiar soul nearby, and the only one with whom he could feel a spiritual closeness was Fucarus, with whom he had communicated through their souls.

“Lady Funina, wait a moment,” Richard said.

However, Funina completely ignored Richard, only muttering, "Don't call me sir."

Then, with a slight push of her feet, she went from sitting like a duck to kneeling, instantly becoming taller than Richard, who was pinned beneath her. She then leaned forward, her hands that were wrapped around Richard's neck turning into cups of his face, and suddenly launched an attack, preparing to forcefully kiss her subordinate.

How can you just stop when you want, and start when you want?

Doesn't Lady Funina have any pride?

After being suppressed by Richard for so long, it's time for her, Funina, to take charge!

To be honest, this feeling of suppressing Richard made Funina inexplicably excited, to the point that even the ahoge (cowlick) on her head seemed particularly agitated.

“Fu…” Richard hadn’t even finished speaking when Fu Ningna interrupted him.

Shut up, Lady Funina doesn't want to talk right now.

Richard had no choice but to gently pat Funina's back with one hand and point to the door with the other.

But clearly, the engrossed Funina paid no attention to Richard's little actions, still unable to extricate herself from the false pleasure she felt from suppressing Richard.

Finally, when Funina was tired of kissing him, her little face flushed with excitement, she finally let go of Richard. As they separated, a glistening thread appeared, shining brightly under the light.

Once the initial excitement subsided and her intelligence returned to its peak, Funina realized just how audacious her actions had been.

No, it can't be described as just bold anymore; it's like a perverted boss who forces his unsatisfied subordinates into sexual harassment.

Luckily, it was just her and Richard at home, otherwise she would have been too ashamed to show her face. Funina thought to herself, her gaze drifting towards the doorway.

The moment her eyes met Fukaros's, Funina felt as if a string in her head snapped.

She then realized why Richard had called for a halt earlier; apparently, someone was in the VIP section!

Is this something you can watch for free? You just watch without saying a word!

With a stiff expression, Fu Ningna mechanically got off Richard, then straightened her somewhat disheveled clothes and hair, pretending that nothing had happened and that she hadn't seen anything, and walked towards her room.

As he left, he muttered, "It's so late, you should go to sleep. Richard, you should get some rest too."

The speed was getting faster and faster. Although it was walking, the frequency of those small steps was even faster than running!

She looked no different from usual, but the base of her ears was incredibly red!

Ugh... I might as well just die.

Funina fled back to her room in a disheveled state, while Richard remained seated on the sofa, trying to calm himself down.

Fukaros, who had just returned home and was struck by lightning at the opening ceremony, was now stuck in a daze, unable to leave or stay. It was as if she had been frozen in place by a spell.

At this moment, Fukaros had only one thought in her mind: why did she come back tonight? She might as well have just spent the night at the Prophecy Machine!

Upon returning, she saw Funina bullying Richard. So this is what they do when they're intimate. Fukaros thought Richard was the one who took the initiative when they were intimate, but now it seems she underestimated Funina.

In a way, I underestimated myself; I'm just like that.

Fukalos felt a strange mix of embarrassment, inexplicable pride, and shyness.

After all, Funina and Fucarus look exactly alike. When I saw Funina holding Richard's face and kissing him, I felt like I was kissing Richard myself.

It gives you a sense of being there, and just looking at it makes your legs go weak.

"Um, I didn't see anything. I... I'm going back to my room to sleep," Fukaros said quickly when she saw Richard looking at her.

After saying that, he dashed into his room.

After sitting on the sofa for a long time, Richard returned to his room with Funina and took a cold shower in the private bathroom to barely calm his restless heart.

That means Fukaros came back today. If she hadn't, based on the previous trend, Miss Funina would probably have become Mrs. Funina tonight.

After all, at that time, both Funina and Richard were a bit carried away.

Meanwhile, back inside, Funina also took a shower, but unlike Richard's cold shower, she took a hot shower because she felt she might catch a cold if she took a cold shower.

After taking a shower, Funina looked at the blue and white bowl that had just been removed from the water, blushed, and began to scrub it with soap.

Funina didn't stop until her little hands ached and the fabric turned white from rubbing.

As for Fukaros, who lived next door to Funina, she didn't take a bath. Instead, she lay straight on the bed, and the image of Funina embracing her husband appeared in her mind as soon as she closed her eyes.

I can't sleep at all.

None of the three slept well that night...

Chapter 174 Clorind, who are you planning to seduce?

Inside the office of the Minister of Administration at the City Hall of Momang Palace, Clarinde, seeing the ethereal Funina, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Lady Funina, did you not sleep well last night?"

"Hmm..." Funina responded weakly.

The moment she closed her eyes, she could only picture the scene of kissing Richard. And the memory of that kiss reminded her of how she had given Fukaros a live broadcast the previous night. Just thinking about her performance made Funina too embarrassed to sleep.

"Then...would you like some calming soup?" Clarind took a packet of Liyue Old Remedy from the cabinet in her office.

"No, it's not that serious," Funina waved her hand, adding that the medicine was too bitter and had a strong medicinal taste, which Funina didn't really like.

"Oh." Clorind put the medicine packet back with some regret. If Funina drank her medicine, wouldn't that mean she could make some more demands of her?

For example, let's have another pool party.

"Make me a cup of black tea, it'll help me wake up and get to work." Funina patted her cheeks, intending to use work to ease the awkwardness.

It has to be said that since deciding to continue working at the city hall, Funina's professional skills have improved more and more. It can be said that the scene of vitality and everything thriving is still vivid in my mind.

Following Frynn's instructions, Clarinde brewed some black tea for her, and also made an extra cup.

"Did you pour too much?" Funina asked as she watched Klorinde take out three teacups.

“Not much. Didn’t Richard arrange a small internal meeting today to discuss our recent work?” Claude said.

Upon hearing Clorind mention Richard, Funina's eyes twitched involuntarily. She subconsciously pursed her lips, her expression somewhat subtle. Afraid that Clorind would notice, she quickly lowered her head and took a sip of black tea to moisten her slightly dry throat.

……

It was an ordinary internal meeting, but for some reason, Clarinde felt that Furnessa was acting a little strange today.

During meetings, whenever Funina made eye contact with Richard, she would quickly look away, but when Richard wasn't looking at her, she would secretly glance back.

She acted like someone secretly in love, but the key point is that everyone present knew how much she, Funina, felt.

I've never seen you this shy before.

As Clarin thought this, she subconsciously began to observe Funina. Before she knew it, Clarin noticed that Funina's lips seemed a little swollen.

Of course, this change is extremely subtle and could easily be overlooked if Clarinde hadn't been observing it carefully.

There are many reasons why lips might swell, such as eating spicy food, getting a sore throat, or being sick. However, Fu Ningna's swollen lips were clearly not due to any of these reasons.

It's highly likely that it was swollen from being kissed, but who kissed it...?

Claude's gaze fell on Richard. There was probably no one else who could win her heart, right?

However, Clarinde did not notice anything unusual about Richard's lips. But thinking about it, Richard is not a fragile water god. Even if they kissed all day, Richard's lips probably wouldn't change.

However, since it cannot be seen from appearances, we can observe from actions and expressions.

Clarind fully utilized her observational skills from her time as a dueling agent, giving Richard a thorough sniping.

However, what she found out was shocking – this statistic took her by surprise.

During the meeting just now, Mr. Richard, the Permanent Secretary, and Ms. Funina, the Executive Minister, made eye contact 10 times, looked at her chest 3 times, looked at her hands 9 times, and looked at her legs 16 times. The area where they spent the most time on average was from her calves to her ankles. This surpassed 60% of all the lesbians in Teyvat and was described as a reserved lesbian.

Do you think Clarinde was intimidated by the number of times Richard 'admired' Frynn?

No, there's an old saying in Liyue: "A beautiful woman is sought after by a gentleman." Richard's attraction to Frynn is understandable, but the key point is...

He didn't just look at Furnessa!

If Clarind remembers correctly, Richard not only cast a glance at Frynn, but also gave her special attention.

As for how many times she looked at it, how long her gaze lingered, and which parts she specifically focused on, Clarinde didn't dare to count, but a rough estimate suggested it was even more than Funina's!

Is this...is this appropriate?

Clarin didn't have time to investigate what had happened between Furness and Richard last night; she was now wondering if the problem was with her outfit today, or...

Just as Clorind's thoughts were beginning to drift towards some untouchable abyss, Richard spoke up and asked:

"Claurind, you've been watching me since just now. Is something the matter?"
