"Freya, Harris has told me about what happened last month.
You are willing to take the responsibility and take the risk to solve the problem. I appreciate that.
But … you have to finish what you started. If you run away after taking a risk and don't care about anything else, then I will only think that you decided to do it for fun.
If that is the case, I don't like it. "
Seeing the serious look on Xu Yi's face, Freya was a bit nervous. She rolled her big eyes and quickly understood the meaning of Xu Yi's words.
"Dad, you mean … The kidnapping incident … is not over yet?"
Xu Yi sighed softly and shook his head.
"Since you've asked this question, it's obvious that you're only participating in it with the intention of fooling around.
Freya, go and receive your punishment from mom. I have no reason to defend you this time. "
Freya's face slightly changed. She looked back at Stiel with a bitter face, but saw Stiel looking at her expressionlessly. She could only obediently walk to Stiel's side and lower her head.
"Mother, please punish me."
"I just feel that you did something wrong because you didn't cherish yourself and took the risk easily and made us worried.
As for your punishment … You have to learn space magic seriously from great grandpa for a week. You have to get great grandpa's approval. Do you understand? "
Freya raised her head and smiled again.
"I understand.
Mom, you just want me to learn more life-saving skills. I will learn seriously. "
Stiel shook her head and laughed. She patted her and said, "Okay, go to your dad. He must have something else to tell you."
"Yes!" Freya naughtily bowed and quickly ran to Xu Yi's side.
"Dad, I have received my punishment from mom and am here to report to you!"
"You think this is the end?" Xu Yi was still expressionless.
"Your mother just thinks that you've made a mistake by making yourself a suspect and causing us to worry.
But in my opinion, your biggest mistake is that you didn't do things properly. You only cared about having fun and participated, but you didn't care about the aftermath of this matter at all. You also didn't care about the impact of your participation.
This is a more serious mistake than putting yourself in danger, do you understand? "
Freja scratched her head in bewilderment.
"Dad, is there any follow-up to that incident?
Haven't we already cleaned up the human traffickers' lair and rescued the kidnapped people? "
"So you think that everything that happens after that should be my headache and have nothing to do with you, right?" Xu Yi snorted coldly.
Freya stuck out her tongue and snorted softly. "Uncle Harris betrayed me …"
Xu Yi knocked on her head. "What do you mean by betraying you?
He was telling me the truth.
Let me tell you, dealing with the power behind the human traffickers is indeed something that should be my headache. However, I had given you full authority to deal with this matter of rescuing the kidnapped people.
You are also responsible for any problems that arise from this matter. "
"Oh … what other problems are there?
Didn't Uncle Harris say that the rest are just procedural issues, so it doesn't matter? "
"Don't ask me, I don't know." Xu Yi shook his head.
"Ah?" Freya looked at Xu Yi in shock.
"Dad, you … are you kidding me?"
Xu Yi's face, which had been solemn all this time, revealed a sly smile.
"I really don't know.
The emissary group sent by the Kandla Empire had specifically requested to meet with you to discuss some matters of cooperation. It has nothing to do with me. "
Freya was stunned. Then, she quickly understood.
"All right!
Dad, you did it on purpose, didn't you? "
Xu Yi grinned. "Don't worry about whether or not I did it on purpose.
Anyway, this was caused by you, so you have to be responsible for it.
I don't need to say anything else, right? "
Freya sighed helplessly and nodded dejectedly. "I know.
Should I go and meet with the people from the Kandla Empire later? "
"Don't ask me, this is your business." Xu Yi put on a hateful look as if it had nothing to do with him. Freya could not help but pout.
Stiel, who was watching from the side, could not help but laugh. "That's enough, can you two stop playing such childish games in front of the guests?
Runoya, come in and have a seat. I still have to discuss the new program with you. "
Runoya, who had been quietly waiting for Freya to interact with her parents, walked up with a smile. She bowed to Stiel and Xu Yi respectively, and then looked at Xu Yi seriously.
"Chairman Xu, the elder wants me to ask you, when are you going to marry me?"
Xu Yi rolled his eyes. "I say, Runoya, can you not ask me this every time you see me?"
"Because you haven't given me a specific answer yet."
Runoya was still smiling, as if she did not realize how abrupt and inappropriate her question was at all.
If the fanatical fans of Elinore across the Sines Continent heard this question, there would be countless people who would feel sad.
Of course, nobody would feel angry.
This was because ….. the one Elinor was asking was Xu Yi.
"But I've told you clearly many times that I won't agree." Xu Yi shook his head with a wry smile.
"Go back and tell Elder Undine that I'm almost sixty years old. Marrying a young girl like you to me would be a waste of God's gift.
Besides, I already have so many wives, I don't want to have another one. "
"But Chairman Xu, I'm already ninety-eight years old this year. I'm almost forty years older than you." Runoya smiled.
"You're an elf. How can you calculate your age like a human?" Xu Yi retorted.
"But Chairman Xu, you've already fused with the life essence of us elves. With your magic power, even if you're sixty years old, you'll be in a much better state than a thirty-year-old human. So, it's not a problem."
Seeing that Elinor was pestering him, Xu Yi could only helplessly roll his eyes again.
"No matter what, Runoya, I won't agree.
Look, my daughter is almost as old as you. How can I marry an elf like you?
Besides, aren't you good friends with Freya? If I marry you, what do you want Freya to call you? "
Freya had been watching Runoya propose to Xu Yi with great interest. When she suddenly heard Xu Yi mention her, she couldn't help but giggle. She blinked and nodded seriously. "Well … That's a problem.
But … Father, this doesn't conflict with Runoya wanting to marry you, does it?
I'm very supportive of you marrying Runoya. That way, we'll be a family.
Don't you think so, Runoya? "
"Of course." Runoya nodded affirmatively.
Xu Yi could only turn to Stiel for help.
Stiel shrugged and smiled. "You know I don't care about that. If you want to marry Runoya, then marry her. I won't object."
Xu Yi sighed and smacked his head. He waved to Freya and Runoya.
"You two go in first."
Freya giggled and pulled Runoya into the house. While running, she waved her fist at Xu Yi and made an encouraging gesture.
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh. After Freya and Runoya disappeared behind the door, he stopped smiling and sighed. "It seems like the Ella Tribe isn't willing to be under the Nightsong tribe and the Moon Shadow Tribe."
"Of course.
The benefits that the Night Song Tribe and the Moon Shadow Tribe had obtained from cooperating with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce over the years, elder Undine had seen this.
Although the Azshara Tribe has a close cooperation with the New Flyer, it can't compare to the benefits of cooperating with the New Flyer. It's normal for her to have this idea. "
"But why is it that to realize this idea, you have to marry an elven girl first?" Xu Yi revealed a bitter smile.
Stiel rolled her eyes at Xu Yi. "Who told you to marry Agnes?"
"How can Agnes' situation be the same?
She is the first elf I've seen and the one I've been in contact with for the longest time, the one I have the deepest feelings for.
Moreover, even if it was Agnes, I had to hesitate for a long time before marrying her with your support.
Now that elder Undine wants to push Runoya to me, how could I accept it? "
"But since you've married Agnes, this is equal to setting a precedent.
So elder Lisanya had Tvisti marry you for the sake of fairness.
Now that the Azshara Tribe wants to be treated the same as the Nightsong tribe and the Moon Shadow Tribe, they clearly feel that it's more convenient to start with you, the chairman of the New Flyer. Therefore, it isn't surprising for them to marry an elven girl from their tribe to you. "
"Your analysis is very reasonable, but Stiel, why do I feel like it's a bit strange?" Xu Yi had a strange look on his face.
"According to what you're saying, if any elven tribe wants to cooperate with our New Flyer, wouldn't they have to marry an elven girl from their tribe to me first?
Not to mention the Demon Cloud Continent, there are already several dozen elven tribes in the Sines.
Could it be that I'll have to open a large elven harem in the future? "
Stiel looked at Xu Yi and revealed a faint smile, "This isn't a bad thing.
Anyway, these elven girls are all very beautiful, so you won't lose out. "
"What kind of joke is this!" Xu Yi's eyes opened wide. After thinking for a bit, he shook his head.
"No, I have to think of a way to solve this problem, otherwise it'll be too troublesome in the future."
Stiel looked at the door and gave a faint sigh, "If you want to firmly refuse, then make a decision as soon as possible.
Otherwise, I'm worried that little girl Runoya will really fall in love with you. "
Xu Yi was stunned, "It can't be, I haven't even seen her that many times."
Stiel revealed a smile and reached out to pinch Xu Yi's face like she often did when she was young.
"There's nothing I can do about it, who told my husband to be too charming."
