Then let them offer their loyalty!

With this in mind, Qiu Tu felt no more doubt or panic.

Because he thinks this is a good thing!

Lariro's mood fluctuates because of her relationships with other women.

This shows that... your method of increasing favorability was successful!

It's very likely that I've gradually gained a certain place in Lariel's heart.

However, precisely because he held a certain position in Lariluo's heart, she would lose loyalty when she discovered that Lariluo was having an affair with another woman or that Lariluo didn't care about her.

Thinking this through, Qiu Tu couldn't help but start to consider how to salvage the current situation.

After a moment, he made up his mind.

After letting out two muffled groans, he suddenly shouted, "Xiao La! I love you!"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, La Riluo, who was about to leave outside the window, was startled and turned to look into the room with a shocked expression.

Inside the room, Guan Xiao, who had been enjoying herself with her eyes closed, opened them in confusion upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, looking at Qiu Tu in front of her...

Chapter 409 Guan Xiao (10,000 words, please vote!)

What is the most embarrassing thing in a person's life?

It was her "boyfriend" who called her by the wrong name.

And what's even more awkward is...

It was a mistake made in bed.

Guan Xiao's mind went blank for a moment.

Xiao La? Who is Xiao La?

She was already on the verge of fainting because Qiu Tu was so powerful, and now, upon hearing this, her blood pressure spiked, making her even more dizzy...

Meanwhile.

While Guan Xiao was questioning her life, La Riluo outside the window was also doubting her own ears.

What did I just hear?

Did Qiu Tu call out his own name?

He calls his own name when playing cards with other women?

Larilu: ....

You're insane!

Lariro felt that even as an evil god who was a means of "reproduction," she wasn't this perverted!

Moreover, when playing cards with other women, calling out your own name—does that make you look good, or does it make that woman look good?

Larilu thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a conclusion.

But she was certain that the woman would hold a grudge against Qiu Tu!

Whenever she puts herself in that woman's shoes, she feels she can never forgive Qiu Tu in this lifetime.

As for myself.....

Thinking of this, Lariel's lips curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile...

Although she felt that Qiu Tu was crazy and perverted.

But... she really liked it!

"Procreation" is the most wonderful thing in the world. How can it be restricted by identity, status, or relationships!

Qiu Tu's chaotic reproductive state perfectly matched her ideas!

Thinking this, Larilu couldn't help but recall that Qiu Tu also belonged to the "Life" pathway...

Suddenly, she found Qiu Tu more pleasing to the eye.

His life path involves playing cards with women, and he plays them in such a perverse, unconventional, and chaotic way...

Thinking of this, a bold idea was born in La Riluo's mind: Could it be that Qiu Tu really wasn't lying to her and was actually her follower?

Thinking this, a hint of excitement appeared on Lariluo's beautiful and delicate face.

Thinking this through, she paused for a moment, then gently tapped her finger.

The next second, a mental message was sent into the room.

Immediately afterward, without waiting for Qiu Tu's response, La Riluo's body slowly transformed into a swarm of black butterflies and then disappeared outside the window.

The black butterfly flew half a meter away, its form gradually blurring before disappearing into the night...

Meanwhile, inside the house, Qiu Tu looked at the pop-up notification that "La Riluo's loyalty +12" and listened to the content of La Riluo's message, and a smile appeared on his face.

He didn't immediately think about La Riluo's message, but instead hugged Guan Xiao and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

At this moment, Guan Xiao was still immersed in the embarrassment of being called by name by Qiu Tu.

Perhaps because people's minds tend to short-circuit when they're on a pedestal, she even forgot that she was there tonight to curry favor with Qiu Tu, so she reflexively asked, "Sir...did you call me by the wrong name just now?"

Upon hearing this question, Guan Xiao instantly returned from her "cloudy" state to reality, thinking to herself, "Oh no."

How could I have asked such a discouraging question? Wasn't I just embarrassing Qiu Tu?

However, to her surprise, Qiu Tu picked her up with a puzzled look and said, "Did you call me by the wrong name? No, I didn't."

After saying that, Qiu Tu said with a look of sudden realization, "Don't you like it when I call you by your 'name' directly?"

"Don't you like me calling you Xiaoxiao?"

"Xiao...Xiao...?" Guan Xiao looked completely bewildered.

Did Qiu Tu just call her "Xiao Xiao"? She remembers it being "Xiao La" instead.

He didn't say "Xiao La, I'm here," but rather "Xiao Xiao, I'm here!"

Xiao Xiao, xiao....xiao....I'm coming...la? Xiao La, xiao....la?

Was it because I shouted too fast?

Guan Xiao, whose brain was already on the verge of short-circuiting from Qiu Tu's antics, felt her head was a complete mess.

Although she still felt something was off, the pronunciation did seem somewhat similar.

Then, recalling the women around Qiu Tu: Tang Feifei, Yu Die, Tan Huimin, Liu Fuping, Shen Lingshuang... it seems that none of them actually have the sounds "xiao" or "la".

There is one person who has any connection with Qiu Tu: La Ri Luo.

But...thinking about evil gods while sleeping with me? My superior couldn't possibly be that perverted!

Moreover... according to his own intelligence, his superior had completely outmaneuvered Lariel.

The two were more like enemies.

So... it's even more impossible.

After a brief analysis, Guan Xiao began to believe Qiu Tu to some extent.

Besides, she only wanted to use Qiu Tu to climb the social ladder, not to spend her life with him; and she was just too exhausted from tonight's events. So she didn't want to think about it anymore...

He simply said "Oh," and made a beautiful, embarrassed expression. "Then the commander must be too amazing... I must have misheard him."

Guan Xiao was already very beautiful, with delicate features like a meticulously sculpted work of art. Her slightly upturned eyes added a touch of natural charm. She was the kind of strikingly beautiful woman.

So when she starts to act cute, she instantly has a captivating charm.

Add to that her curvaceous, alluring figure; especially those soft headlights...

Suddenly... Qiu Tu became restless again.

And so... Guan Xiao suffered terribly that night.

Qiu Tu didn't have the same level of control as Tang Feifei; as an ordinary Tier 1 Cataclysm user, she felt like she was being run over by a bull.

In the end, Qiu Tu felt sorry for her and simply activated the "Order Space" to restore her physical strength and combat power.

This prevented her from being completely destroyed...

......

And so, the night passed without further incident.

The next day, Qiu Tu woke up from his sleep and glanced at the beautiful woman beside him.

Even with the "Order Space" to restore her strength, Guan Xiao's face still showed deep fatigue.

Even... Qiu Tu noticed a tear stain at the corner of her mouth...

In order to make Qiu Tu happy, she even went so far as to eat well last night.

Looking at her, Qiu Tu inexplicably felt as if he were seeing himself...

'What a cycle...'

As he sighed, he picked up his clothes, got up, and left the bedroom in the lounge.

After taking a shower, Qiu Tu put on his uniform, lit a cigarette, and went to his office.

Tan Huimin had already woken up and was cleaning the office.

Last night, Guan Xiao tied Tan Huimin up and suggested putting her on the bedside table as a decoration, which Qiu Tu found extremely perverted. So... he simply carried her to the second bedroom so she could rest.

Upon seeing Qiu Tu, Tan Huimin rubbed her neck and then complained softly, "Minister Guan is really inhuman."

"She wanted to try something different with you, so why did she knock me out...?"

Qiu Tu astutely seized on the blind spot, "You were spying on us after you woke up last night?"

Upon hearing this, Tan Huimin's delicate oval face flushed red, and she quickly lowered her head and went to the other side to clean.

Watching the beautiful young woman flee in panic, Qiu Tu clicked his tongue.

Suddenly I feel that... Guan Xiao's suggestion last night might actually be worth trying.

It seems I was too conservative after all...

......

Although Huang Shangzong and Qiu Tu didn't get along very well, it must be admitted that Huang was very capable and efficient.

After the meeting last night, the official documents were sent to the New Territories Exploration Department early this morning.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Xiongyuan, the highest-ranking official in the Dongyezhou Detective Agency system, personally came to the New Territories to promote Qiu Tu.

Because it was a major reshuffle and appointment, all mid-to-high-level personnel at the Investigation Bureau, from section chief level and above, were present.

Even the chiefs of dozens of police stations in the New Territories were all present.

In the largest conference room of the Exploration Bureau, hundreds of people sat upright and solemnly, and no one dared to speak casually.

On the stage, Liu Xiongyuan sat in the main seat, with Qiu Tu, Yu Zhengyi, Guan Weihua, Shi Youxin, Lin Ting and others standing on his left and right.

Meanwhile, in the audience, Ellie, the newly appointed Deputy Director of Management Ji Qinglin, and Special Operations Department Director Lü Cheng sat in the first row.

Also sitting in the first row was Guan Xiao, who had finally come back to life...

At the meeting, Liu Xiongyuan gave a formulaic commendation of the New Territories City's work over the past six months. He then announced the state's appointments.

Qiu Tu and Yu Zhengyi have been removed from their posts as deputy directors.

Qiu Tu officially assumed the position of Director of the New Territories City Investigation Department, while Yu Zhengyi was reassigned to another post.

Remove him from his post and assign him to another post.

Afterwards, Liu Xiongyuan introduced several new senior executives of the New Territories City Exploration Department.

Deputy Director of Operations, Ellie; Deputy Director of Management, Ji Qinglin; Director of Special Operations, Lü Cheng; and... Director of the Political Department, Guan Xiao.

With this, almost all nine senior executives of the first New Territories City Detective Agency were replaced.

The new senior leadership consists of seven people: Director Qiu Tu, Deputy Directors Ai Li and Ji Qinglin; Director of the Political Department Guan Xiao, Director of the Personnel Department Shi Youxin, Director of the Special Operations Department Lü Cheng, and Director of the Public Security Department Guan Weihua.
