I'm a pirate on Star Iron.

If Fu Xuan had come back to look for something more, he would have seen me fiddling with the Imperial Jade.

It seems that Qingque will spend the entire afternoon being nagged by Fu Xuan.

"Oh, Your Excellency, why did you buy so much stuff!"

At this moment, Qingque also noticed what Fu Xuan was carrying and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

It's not even Chinese New Year yet, and Lord Fu Xuan has already prepared the year-end bonus?

"I passed by a shady shop, went in, and ended up getting tricked into buying this whole bunch of stuff, which cost me a whole year's salary!"

Thinking back on this, Fu Xuan couldn't help but complain.

Since Qingque was transferred to his side, the relationship between the two has improved considerably.

Fu Xuan also gave a high evaluation of Qing Que's abilities.

It can be said that apart from his slight tendency to slack off, Fu Xuan was quite satisfied with Qing Que in other aspects.

Fu Xuan has even considered whether to groom Qing Que as the successor to the next Grand Diviner.

Of course, Qingque was unaware of this, otherwise, given her personality, she would definitely not want to take on such a troublesome position as the Grand Diviner.

Perhaps because of this, Fu Xuan's attitude towards Qing Que became much more amiable.

Even during work hours, I would occasionally chat with Qingque.

"A rip-off shop? Who in Luofu would dare to cheat you, sir!"

Qingque was also surprised by this.

Now, on Mount Luofu, Jingyuan is nearing the end of his life.

The only person currently in Luofu who could succeed to the position of General of Luofu is probably the leader of the Six Emperors.

But apart from Fu Xuan, the others also had no desire for the position of general for various reasons.

In addition, Fu Xuan's skills are among the best of the Six Emperors.

Although Jing Yuan is still making excuses, it's clear to anyone with eyes that he intends to pass the general's position to Fu Xuan.

The reason why it has been delayed in being passed on is that Fu Xuan still lacks experience.

After all, nothing major has happened in Luofu since Fu Xuan took over as the Grand Diviner.

Although this is a good thing, Jingyuan is also worried about whether Fuxuan can shoulder the responsibility if something happens in the future.

If he can withstand the pressure, then the position of general will definitely belong to Fu Xuan.

This wasn't exactly a secret in Luofu; almost everyone who cared about who the next general would be knew.

After all, Fu Xuan kept clamoring for Jing Yuan to step down and for her to take over.

If Jing Yuan were truly dissatisfied with Fu Xuan, he wouldn't have allowed Fu Xuan to continue his clamoring.

The direct rejection of Fu Xuan's proposal to become a general completely eliminated any possibility for her.

Therefore, it can be said that Fu Xuan is the next general without a doubt.

Your shady shop is ripping off Fu Xuan. What will happen when Fu Xuan becomes a general in a few years? Will your shop still be able to stay in business?

At this moment, Qingque was also curious about which store was so brave.

Looking at the trademark on the packaging bag, Qingque couldn't help but blurt out.

"Hey, isn't this the Belleberg brand of stockings that's been all the rage lately?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan looked at Qing Que with some surprise.

After all, in her mind, Qingque shouldn't be interested in anyone other than Di Yuan Qiongyu.

Upon seeing Fu Xuan's gaze, Qing Que understood what Fu Xuan was thinking.

He scratched his head as he spoke.

"Your Excellency, you have no idea how popular this thing is online right now. I see their ads all the time, and I heard they recently did a collaboration with Robin, which made it even more popular!"

"Is that so?"

Fu Xuan doesn't usually use his phone, so he really didn't know about this.

However, Fu Xuan had heard of the robin's reputation.

A world-renowned singer, a believer in harmony.

Fu Xuan never expected that such a big star would actually collaborate with this thing.

Aside from the fact that the robin and the owner of this thing might have some connection, Fu Xuan really couldn't think of any other possibility.

Of course, Fu Xuan felt that this had nothing to do with him.

"By the way, do you like Qingque? I bought quite a lot. If you like it, you can take it!"

As he spoke, Fu Xuan handed the bag in his hand to Qing Que so she could choose one.

After all, I was tricked into buying it, and I ended up getting really hooked on it.

This caused Fu Xuan to buy too much at once.

Since she couldn't possibly wear them herself, she simply gave a few pairs to Qingque.

Upon hearing Fu Xuan say he wanted to give her a ride, Qing Que quickly waved her hand.

"No need, Your Excellency, I've heard this thing is very expensive, so let's forget about it!"

If it's something related to the Imperial Jade Palace, then Qingque might have to reconsider.

But if it's stockings...

Sorry, Qingque is a bare-legged type and doesn't usually wear stockings.

"Just take it. Consider it a reward for your hard work these past two days!"

Seeing that Qingque was unwilling, Fu Xuan was also somewhat displeased.

"Alright then, thank you very much, Master Diviner!"

Perhaps she was too afraid of Fu Xuan, because when she heard Fu Xuan's tone change, Qing Que immediately took the packaging bag from her hand.

Fu Xuan was very satisfied to see that Qing Que had accepted it.

"Now that you've accepted what I've given you, you'll repay me with your work!"

"what?"

Volume 1: Chapter 216 Who are you?

Unlike the bustling Tabushi at this time, after a long day's work, Furibas finally got off work.

As it was almost time to leave work, the other people in the store couldn't help but look at Furibas.

Being stared at by so many eyes sent a chill down Fulibas's spine, and he looked at them with a strange expression.

"What are you doing, staring at me like that?"

At this moment, Furibas also began to examine himself.

I don't think there's anything strange about me.

"Oh, actually we just wanted to ask you, is your boyfriend coming today?"

"I've already told you, that's not my boyfriend!"

At this point, Furibas could only helplessly correct him.

But clearly, the others didn't believe it at all.

If they weren't really boyfriend and girlfriend, why would someone specifically come to pick up Furibas from get off work?

Therefore, no matter how Furibas explained it, the others did not believe him at all.

"You see, he definitely won't be coming today!"

Seeing the teasing looks around him, Furibas immediately spoke up.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a familiar figure appeared at the store entrance.

"Furibas, are you off work yet? I'm here to pick you up!"

Ruf stood in the doorway and spoke to Furibas behind the cashier.

Upon seeing Luffy appear, Furibas fell silent.

"Oh!"

The others, seeing Luffy appear at the door, couldn't help but start jeering.

You said it was okay, but they came to pick you up again today!

Seeing the amused looks coming from those around him, Fulibas wished he could bury his head in the ground.

"You're here again?"

At this moment, Furibas ran quickly to Luffy's side and asked with a rather resentful tone.

She had just said Luffy wouldn't come, but he showed up at the store entrance. Wasn't that a slap in the face?

"Didn't you say you wanted to eat a Manchu Han Imperial Feast? I've already made a reservation, so I'm here to take you there!"

"Didn't you say this thing needs to be pre-ordered?"

Huang Quan was also taken aback when he heard Luffy's words.

She had thought that booking a banquet of this caliber would take a long time.

"This thing is ridiculously expensive, and nobody usually orders it. Plus, I paid extra, so they got it sorted out very quickly!"

Luffy waved his hand and explained.

If something can be solved with money, then it's not a problem!

"So, are you off work yet? If not, I'll wait for you a bit longer?"

Upon hearing this, Fulibas hesitated for a moment, glanced at the shop, and then spoke to Luffy.

"Then wait for me a moment!"

With that, Fulibas returned to the shop.

The other people in the shop smiled and said this when they saw Fulibas return.

"Why are you back? It's almost time to leave work anyway. If you want to leave, that's fine! No one above will know!"

After all, the only people working in the shop are these poor, struggling laborers. Why should laborers make things difficult for each other?

If you don't tell me, and I don't tell me, who among the important figures above will know?

Sorry, the person standing outside that door is the one you mentioned above!

At this moment, Furibas thought to himself, "This is what I'm thinking."

If I leave now, wouldn't that be like leaving early in front of the boss behind the scenes?

Although Luffy wouldn't say anything.

But since he was already at work, Fulibas felt he should wait until after get off work to talk about it.

"It's okay, I'll talk about it after I get off work!"

After hesitating for a moment, Furibas decided to wait until the end of the workday.

As for Luffy, let him wait outside!

Fortunately, it wasn't long before the end of the workday. As soon as the bell rang, Fulibas rushed out.

"Then I'll leave first!"

"Go ahead, remember to have a good time on your date with your boyfriend!"

That's not my boyfriend!

"So you don't deny dating, right?"

Amidst the teasing of the crowd, Furibas blushed and came to the door.

"You're finally out!"
