Chapter 165 So silly, so naive
Sure enough, they didn't react at all after seeing it.
"Never mind, even if you think we're lying, we won't let you waste your time like this. You have to go and get to work!"
"Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to continue providing you with accommodation and food. Life can't always be this easy. I hope you have the self-awareness to know your place."
Xia Gu was very firm in her stance. She had already made her point to this extent, and if they didn't want to stay, there was nothing Xia Gu could do.
As expected, they did want to leave at first, but now that they've been comfortably taken care of like this, they don't want to leave at all.
They looked at each other, unsure of what to do, but given the current situation, they wanted to discuss it carefully.
"Why don't you go over there? It's very comfortable to stay here, and you don't have to worry about being scared at night. We have so many cubs here anyway."
"Yes, why don't we stay here? This is the best place, and no wild animals will want to attack us."
They were all very hesitant, hoping that there could be a best solution to this problem, otherwise they would become as confused as before.
Xia Gu smiled. She had already guessed that this would happen, because it's hard to go from luxury to frugality.
"Have you thought it through? If you have, then hurry up and go. Don't waste so much time. Xuelan and I have been talking to you here for so long."
Xia Gu was very proud and only hoped that the matter could be clarified. Sure enough, after they heard it, they just nodded in the end, because none of them wanted to leave.
Xue Lan and Xia Gu breathed a sigh of relief; they had finally resolved the matter, which was no easy feat.
"These people really want to sit on a rocky mountain and do nothing. How could there be such outrageous people? Who exactly invited them here? It would be better if they didn't have this group at all. They'll probably be harder to manage in the future."
Xue Lan felt a little angry when she thought about this, and she didn't know who had called the people here. Xia Gu, on the other hand, gave a helpless smile after hearing it.
"It was Eric who called them over. They were Eric's friends before. I didn't expect Eric to be completely different from them. After all, Eric has always been very hardworking and ambitious."
Xia Gu had thought of these things before, but this group of people seemed particularly unreliable, and she didn't know how Eric knew them.
Fortunately, Eric is fine now, and that situation is not the case at all. If that situation were to occur, Xia Gu would consider divorcing him.
Just then, Eric appeared from behind them. He had heard his own name, but he didn't know what the two of them were talking about.
"What did you two say about me? You weren't saying bad things about me, were you?"
Eric's sudden appearance startled them both, and Xia Gu finally understood what it meant to speak of the devil and he appears.
"How did you get here so suddenly? Where did you jump out from?" Xia Gu asked Eric, genuinely puzzled by the situation.
“I came from my friend’s place. I heard they’ve agreed to go work at the processing center. That’s great. If it weren’t for you guys, I wouldn’t have been able to convince them on my own.”
Eric breathed a sigh of relief; he had finally resolved the matter, otherwise he would have faced even more troublesome problems in the future.
Xia Gu nodded immediately after hearing this. It was really not easy, and it was hard to understand why everyone in this group wanted to slack off and eat and drink for free.
"They are originally wandering orcs. Shouldn't they work even harder when they are out there? If they don't work hard, how will they find food out there? I do find it a bit strange."
At this moment, Xia Gu looked at Eric with a suspicious gaze, wanting to see how Eric would explain the situation.
"That's because we leaders go hunting. When we hunt together, we can catch a lot of wild animals at once, which will keep them fed for a long time."
Eric patted his chest proudly, saying that this was just how things were going to happen, and he hoped they could understand the situation.
After hearing this, Xia Gu finally understood the difference between Eric and them. It turned out that this was because Eric spoiled them so much that this situation had occurred.
"I think you have quite a few leadership qualities, and if that's the case, then you're pretty good."
"But you can't just keep feeding and supporting them like this, because they have no value to you. Right? If I'm going to support them, I have to see value in them first, so that I can continue to use them."
Xue Lan spoke very clearly from the side, and she also wanted to teach Eric a good lesson.
Eric was completely bewildered after hearing this, and had no idea what it meant. He didn't quite understand it himself.
“I just lack friends, which is why I did that. This group of people are all my friends, so I wanted to help them. I don’t think that’s a big problem.”
Eric spoke with absolute certainty, which made Xue Lan and Xia Gu feel very sorry for him. If that was the case, then it would be better not to teach him any more lessons, because Eric was just too naive and simple-minded.
"Now that we're here, we shouldn't have to worry about this anymore. As long as everything is alright, that's all that matters."
Xia Gu patted Eric's head, and could only comfort him as he was feeling sad. Eric's first reaction upon seeing her was that he wanted to become her husband.
Now that things have come to a clear understanding, it's not what they thought at all, so there's no point in saying anything more now.
"Yes, I have so many friends now, and you are all so good to me. I feel really lucky to have met you all."
Suddenly Eric hugged them both. Xue Lan was still unaware of what was happening and was a little embarrassed to be hugged like that.
"Alright, alright, then let's not do anything mushy anymore."
