Translation: "Not to mention graduates." We'll output.

Translation: "Precisely for this reason, few people call her by her nickname 'Luna'." We'll output.

Translation: "The emperor of Telesen thought so." We'll output.

Signing up that Ailisuzhi whom even she finds troublesome, and also taking on the Bourbon of Meipu, the source of the chaos these past few days, being praised by Bai Ren and Qianming, Sirius even looked favorably upon it early on—all this, as a newcomer, already counts as excellent, but as a training officer brought in by the chairman who broke convention.

Excellence is merely expected; Ludaofu looks forward to this trainer's future performance.

At this moment, her thoughts were still rather lofty.

The trainer she was gazing at merely replied lightly, "Where a person is, that is home."

This instead brought her lofty attitude down.

"Sorry."

A meticulous person always thinks a lot; hearing this, she immediately recalled from her own intelligence the details of the other's family composition, and then, realizing she had stepped on a landmine, felt apologetic.

Never did she expect that Aomo's meaning was merely literal.

Morisen's intimidating presence can still be found streaming on public networks and his terminal at any time; wherever he goes, it's still home? Moreover, he is preparing to accelerate the development of his mercenary office, and now he is ready for genuine high-intensity overtime.

Putting down the office as his address is just preparing to stash a small blanket in the office.

"No, nothing," Aomo, realizing the misunderstanding but feeling that explaining would only add awkwardness, chose to change the subject: "So does this count as ending then? Miss Xiangzheng."

"Just call me Ludaofu, after all there's occasionally a Sirius here, easy to confuse," Ludaofu smiled helplessly, "She was actually quite interested in you back then."

At first hearing, this was somewhat confusing, but Aomo knew exactly who she was referring to.

Sirius Xiangzheng, also a member of the Xiangzheng family, is Ludaofu Xiangzheng's childhood friend, and at the same time was the horse girl on the subway who initially put him under great pressure.

It's been that long... well, actually not that long.

But Aomo was almost forgetting that matter, never expecting it would still draw the other's attention.

"Back then?"

"Just three days ago, I mentioned you," said Ludaofu after putting the documents into a storage bag, glancing at the unexpectedly quiet Ailisuzhi and Meipu Bopang, then looking at Aomo, "She's been to the foreign lands these past few days, making contact inconvenient."

For the trainer responsible for the two horse girls, the foreign lands are no secret, let alone that this trainer is also a mercenary.

The emperor naturally would not avoid it.

"Indeed, that's truly flattering," Aomo, looking surprised under Ailisuzhi's subtle gaze, said, having no intention to continue the topic, directly repeated his previous question: "So can we leave?"

"Ah, of course, please."

Feeling that the other party had some urgent matter, Ludaofu Xiangzheng saw no need to detain them and saw them off:

"Wishing your office's establishment swift success, trainer."

"I appreciate your kind words, Miss Ludaofu."
