Chapter 641: Lanchi's Business Acumen

"I wonder what would happen if we let Talia and Odeia give it a try?"

Lanchi had always been curious about what would have happened in the timeline where he didn't interfere, where Talia successfully obtained the [Ode of Compassion] and used it on herself. How exactly did she rise to prominence?

Perhaps, for other prophets, high-level diviners, and future-sight holders, the timeline they observed over a year ago was indeed the one that was supposed to occur.

And the memory intelligence he possessed of that timeline was like a gift from future sight.

"We can bring Lanfu over to try later."

Upon hearing this, Huberian seemed to have a eureka moment, realizing there was another option.

Although Talia and Odeia had completely different personalities, Odeia was, after all, created by Talia herself, so they might unexpectedly have great compatibility.

Ever since Odeia enrolled in the Mage Academy, she had been eagerly absorbing knowledge.

She was the true embodiment of a self-disciplined academic tyrant, in stark contrast to Lanchi, who spent his days scheming ways to skip classes.

The two of them walked up the stairs to the third floor.

Passing by the row of large windows, they arrived at the Student Council room at the end of the corridor.

"Mr. President, we're here," Huberian announced as he knocked on the heavy door.

A faint voice could be heard from the crack of the door, as if the president was chatting with someone.

"Come in."

Upon receiving a response, the two of them pushed the doors open from either side.

The clock struck nine, and a gentle breeze blew in through the windows, carrying a refreshing scent. The faint aroma of tea wafted in the air, and a freshly brewed pot of floral tea sat on the coffee table between the sofas, with the tea leaves gracefully floating and dancing on the water's surface.

This time, the president was not sitting at his desk but was instead relaxing on the sofa in the lounge area, engaged in casual conversation.

Seated next to him was a lady with hair a similar shade to his.

"Lanchi, Huberian!"

Before Huberian could voice her confusion, Florence turned to them with a smile and greeted them warmly.

Today, Florence had resumed her feminine appearance, exuding an innocuous aura. Her delicate features and naturally moist skin, coupled with her luscious ruby lips, created a captivating sight.

"She's Florence, the president's sister and a close friend of Dean Loren," Lanchi introduced as he led Huberian to the sofa and sat down opposite Florence.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Florence," Huberian acknowledged with a respectful nod.

She could sense that Florence, like herself, was a cleric of the Church of the Goddess of Fate, and her status was quite high. Huberian was already surprised by how amiably Florence was treating her.

"No wonder Althemis adores you so much. I've heard about you from Monaste. You truly are an angel descended upon the mortal realm, guided by the Great Goddess herself," Florence said joyfully to Huberian.

In fact, during the clerical assessment at Helrom Prison, she, as the Grand Knight of the Church of the Goddess of Fate, had observed Huberian's actions from a higher-dimensional space.

"Ah..."

Lanchi sighed.

The memory of Loren's impulsiveness from the day before was still fresh in his mind.

He never expected that Loren would have hugged Florence upon meeting her.

But there was no time to dwell on that now.

"Do you have another request for us today?"

Lanchi looked towards Florence, momentarily interrupting their conversation about the Great Goddess.

There had been occasions in the past where the Student Council needed their assistance on weekends, and Lanchi never refused.

This morning, Asina had informed Huberian that the president wanted to see the two of them regarding a matter, so they had come directly to the Student Council room of the Ikelite Academy from Boss Cat's restaurant.

Florence suddenly snapped back to reality and turned to Lanchi.

She straightened her posture and appeared slightly nervous.

"Well... it's like this... I've been staying in a hotel ever since I came to Ikelite, not knowing how long I'd be here or when I'd leave. I've been ordering takeout for my meals, and Loren thought I was staying with Monaste..."

Florence averted her gaze and placed her hands on her knees, stumbling over her words as she explained,

"So, last night when I was chatting with Loren using communication magic, Loren suggested that I just stay at his place since he has a guest room. That way, he could at least make breakfast for me every day, and it would be more convenient for him to chat with me after he gets home from work in the evenings."

"Huh?"

Huberian was stunned.

That was a bit too open-minded of Dean Loren.

"Wait, Huberian, I must explain. Loren doesn't know I'm a woman. He thinks of me as a brother because I usually wear a full set of armor, and my voice is different from how it is now!"

Noticing Huberian's expression, Florence quickly waved her hands in explanation and proceeded to tell her about the request she had made to Lanchi a couple of days ago to help her with the transformation card.

"..."

Even after understanding the context, Huberian still felt a bit dazed.

"So, did you agree to it?"

Huberian asked.

"I... his offer was too difficult to refuse. I felt that if I turned him down, he would be very sad, so I didn't know what to do for a moment, and I could only agree..."

Florence lowered her head, her words trailing off.

Lanchi noticed Monaste's twitching lips.

He probably understood what the president meant now.

"I don't know what to do now. Even if I pretend to be a man and live with him, it would still be too..."

Florence struggled to confess to the two of them, her words filled with a plea for help.

She had long heard that the Ikelite Academy offered student services for emotional counseling and would help with various problems.

"Rest assured, your predicament is within our scope of work, and this matter is related to the previous card-making request anyway. Even as an after-sales service, I will help you to the best of my ability."

Lanchi said responsibly.

Florence clenched her fists tightly, grateful for his assurance.

"Since living in Loren's house has become a done deal, why not seriously consider how to make it flawless, Miss Florence?"

Lanchi advised calmly.

"Go on."

"First, always lock the door when you're taking a shower, and no matter what happens in the bathroom, don't scream and draw Loren's attention, making him come to check if something has happened."

Lanchi instructed solemnly, counting with his index finger.

"Mhm."

Florence took note of his words seriously.

"Second, it's better to use shampoo and shower gel with lighter fragrances. Otherwise, when you sit next to him after taking a shower in the evening, he might get the wrong idea that his 'brother' smells nice."

Lanchi continued.

"Mhm."

Florence listened carefully to Lanchi's advice.

"Third, just relax and have breakfast with him. Don't get up early to make breakfast for him, don't do too many household chores, and definitely don't bring him tea or snacks when he's working late in the office, or he might get the impression that there's a good wife and mother in the house."

"No problem."

"Fourth, it's fine to mop the floor occasionally to keep it clean and accident-proof. Don't let anything happen that would cause both of you to fall and end up in close contact."

"...?"

Huberian furrowed her brows, perplexed as she stared at Lanchi.

Wait a minute.

Was he teaching her how to prevent Loren from discovering that she was a woman?

Or was he giving her ideas on how to create more heart-fluttering moments with Loren?!
