Chapter 540

Hu Tao: "That's the head of the company's Market Development Department!"

Hu Tao: "A big-shot-level figure too — probably won't be easy to deal with."

Boothill: "Hah, big shot or whatever — once I find them, I guarantee every shot will make them die happy!"

The video continues.

【Tiresome conversation... just hang up, wouldn't you?】

【In my view, you handled that project quite well.】

【A tiny little ice ball in exchange for a favor from the Astral Express — for the department, it's a sure win with no loss.】

Paimon: "Wow, Ms. Jade is finally here!"

Paimon: "Ms. Jade is so pretty!"

Paimon: "Such a refined and elegant big sister!!"

Jade: "Big sister?"

Jade: "Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Ms. Paimon. Your way of addressing me reminds me of those children."

Lumine: "That bearing... no doubt about it, she's a strong career woman!!"

Stelle: "I saw Ms. Jade before in Topaz's memories."

Stelle: "At the time I couldn't make out much."

Stelle: "Looking now, she really does have some kind of inexplicable aura."

March 7th: "Speaking of which, are favors from our Astral Express really that sought-after?"

March 7th: "More important than an entire planet?"

Jade: "Naturally... the members of the Astral Express are no ordinary lot."

Jade: "Of all the things you people did in Penacony, which one wasn't an earth-shattering feat?"

Topaz: "Speaking of which, if not for all your good fortune, the company wouldn't have found it so easy to seize the chance to reclaim Penacony."

Furina: "Truly worthy of the Trailblazer crew — amazing!"

Seele: "Yeah, truly amazing."

Seele: "If not for them, Belobog still wouldn't be able to see hope right now..."

The video continues.

【It's been a long time, little Ye Linna.】

【I've been looking forward to working with you.】

【I didn't expect this day to come so soon.】

【Have you run into any trouble?】

【You can tell me anything, just like before.】

Jade gently stroked Topaz's cheek,

her eyes full of tenderness.

Amber: "Huh? Ms. Jade's gesture just now was so gentle!"

Stelle: "It feels like a mom!"

Hu Tao: "Wait, Ye Linna??"

Hu Tao: "Is that Ms. Topaz's real name?"

Furina: "Seems like, just like with Topaz, 'Topaz' is only a codename for one of the Ten Stonehearts?"

Furina: "By the same logic, Ms. Jade should be the same."

Xiangling: "Just like Mr. Topaz's real name, Ms. Topaz's real name sounds lovely too."

Stelle: "Tch, if I became one of the Ten Stonehearts, would I lose my real name too?"

Stelle: "Then what should I be called? Xing Shi?"

Stelle: "No! Maybe I should be called Xing Qiong!"

March 7th: "Alright, stop daydreaming, just settle down and be your nameless guest..."
