Chapter 72: Uprooting the Pot
“Right, speaking of Lily, I think Juncheng you should really take a look at her. Her condition lately is really not right.”
Xuan’er meant lately, so she wasn’t acting strange starting from this morning’s incident, but rather from much earlier.
If calculated by the time spent interacting with me, perhaps it was because I had met Lily a few times before, and she had been affected since then…
In any case, let’s get more information from Xuan’er.
So I asked while tearing open the packaging of a curry pork cutlet bread.
“What’s wrong with Lily?”
“Juncheng, you don’t know, Lily’s emotions are very unstable. She’s much more irritable than when she has her period! Although she hasn’t gotten angry at us, her attitude towards her subordinates is very unfriendly.”
Taking a bite of the bread, the spicy curry inside stimulated my taste buds. The taste of the fried pork cutlet erupting from the center at this moment was amazing! This bread is too delicious. Are the cafeteria aunties at our school geniuses?
Xuan’er watched me eat the bread with great relish, and saliva flowed from the corners of her mouth. It felt like a waste of these liquids that could be used to treat wounds. I mean, Xuan’er looked so pathetic.
So, unable to bear seeing Xuan’er go hungry, I returned the curry pork cutlet bread to her. Xuan’er, having received food again, immediately became joyous.
“Great! Thank you!”
“You’re welcome, it was yours originally.”
The gluttonous Xuan’er took a big bite, but because her mouth wasn’t big enough to fit such a large piece, she spat out a small portion.
Ugh, this scene was quite lewd, especially since she did it unintentionally, which made it worse.
To distract myself, I tore open another bread in my hand, glanced at Xueqing beside me, and gestured with my eyes, ‘Want some?’
Xueqing, of course, was in sync with me. She nodded slightly and opened her small mouth. I smiled, tore open the bread, dipped it in plenty of curry, and placed a piece of pork cutlet on it before offering it to Xueqing.
The bread and pork cutlet disappeared bit by bit. It felt like feeding a hamster, very cute.
In the middle, too much curry juice dripped down my index finger. Just as I was about to retract my finger, Xueqing took my hand and continued to lick off all the dripping curry.
This was also quite lewd… These two lolis are as seductive as ever. I could only repeatedly emphasize in my mind that we were just eating bread, not feeding them anything strange! I didn’t ask them to swallow it all and then lick it clean! Although I did witness the scene of them eating, spitting, extending their tongues, and licking it clean, there were absolutely no improper activities involved. It might look like that with a mosaic overlay.
I seemed to have played this game with Lianbing before… Ugh, although she bit me in the end. I mean, she really bit me.
“No, I wanted to say, Juncheng, listen to me properly.”
Huh? In the short time I was feeding Xueqing, she had already finished? That was fast.
I myself took another bite of bread, took out a tissue to wipe Xuan’er’s messy face, and nodded.
“Mmm, so you’re saying Lily has recently changed from a masochist to a sadist?”
“It feels like something is wrong, but it could be interpreted that way. This is enough to show how unstable Lily’s mental state is; even her kinks have completely reversed.”
“It’s said that every masochist has the potential to become a sadist, and vice versa. After all, extreme opposites are equal. This applies to sexual preferences as well.”
“Juncheng!”
Cough cough, don’t get angry. I won’t talk nonsense anymore.
This was indeed completely unexpected.
Despite being a masochist, she would treat others harshly? Perhaps the accumulated pressure was too much. I had never seen her act sternly before; every time I interacted with her, I was on the weaker side.
Previously, it was mainly to hide her succubus identity, so she had to be cautious. Although there was no longer that necessity, given Lily’s personality, she wouldn’t verbally abuse employees.
Although the thought of Lily in a professional suit and black stockings looking disgusted and stepping on an employee while uttering abusive words was quite stimulating, and her identity offered many exciting points. Look at my beautiful CEO wife, cough, no, teacher.
Uh, lately, my thoughts have been a bit too much. Is my thought process shifting towards my lower half?
“I’m worried about her. Many employees have privately expressed their dissatisfaction. This never happened when Nana was here.”
“That’s only natural. After all, Lily was ‘temporarily appointed’.”
Although no one noticed anything amiss, Lily was not originally an administrator for the organization. Such a rushed appointment must have given her a lot of trouble.
“Yes, indeed. Managing an organization isn’t something just anyone can do. The continuous abnormal events, the meddling anomalies, suppressing abnormalities, damage control, power balance… the events happening in the hidden world are far more numerous than in the surface world. It’s like managing a ‘country.’ And Lily, suddenly taking over, has managed to achieve this much without letting the organization collapse or causing any chaos. That’s incredibly impressive! Xue’er, don’t you think so too?”
“Mmm, Teacher, she works very hard.”
“Now that you mention it, it is indeed very impressive.”
After Nana suddenly disappeared, Lily became the leader of the organization. All the matters that Nana used to handle now had to be decided by Lily.
What a heavy burden. I had never considered this aspect.
I had also never actively cared about Lily; I paid too little attention to her.
While I could make excuses that there were currently more pressing matters, and I was just an ordinary person who couldn’t do everything, finding such reasons for myself would only lead to greater disappointment.
Because Lily wasn’t the Sacred Witch, I neglected her? If I truly thought that way, I would be an irresponsible scumbag, and there would be no way to redeem myself.
“So, she must be forcing herself.”
“Exactly. That’s why she’s losing her temper with the employees. Moreover, this morning, she directly witnessed your unreliable and flirtatious demeanor, and it seemed like Lily’s entire face turned dark. So, for the time being, Juncheng, it’s best not to approach Lily casually.”
“Wait, you just told me to go see her, and now you’re telling me not to approach her. Which is it?”
Your words contradict each other. I was about to go find Lily next, but after Xuan’er’s warning, I calmed down immediately. Even if I went to her directly, if I didn’t know what to say, it would be useless.
“Ugh, from a safety perspective, I hope Juncheng you’d better avoid her. Better to turn and run away immediately before she sees you.”

“What is this? Lily isn’t some ferocious beast. Why should I avoid her?”
I felt Xuan’er was exaggerating. Perhaps it was because Lily had signed a master-slave contract with me before, and she would never have any intention of harming me, so I had always trusted her. Even though that terrible contract was no longer in effect, I still believed Lily wouldn’t hurt me.
But Xuan’er narrowed her eyes and gave me a meaningful look, saying,
“No, the current Lily is a ‘ferocious beast’ to you.”
“Huh? It sounds like there’s more to it. Lily won’t hurt me.”
Xuan’er shook her head and sighed, feeling too helpless to continue. Xueqing, who had been silently listening beside us, spoke up.
“See? Xueqing, you think so too, right?”
“Absorb… I naturally understand what you mean by ‘absorb’.”
“Xue’er is right. Even if she denies it herself, Lily is still a succubus. Do you know the best way for a succubus to release stress? You can guess. In fact, even the usually cold Nana would fall into that terrible state periodically. We would always provide some help then.”
“…”
Although I was a little curious about what kind of help she provided and how, it was better not to ask here.
Moreover, I could roughly imagine that it would be a sensual scene that would make one’s nose bleed.
“Juncheng, don’t think of it as enjoyable and throw yourself at her. This is no joke, Juncheng. Even if you go, you’ll be… ugh, you’ll be worked to death.”
It was just a change of wording, and adding a word still couldn’t eliminate the vulgarity, Xuan’er said.
“But we can’t just watch her become more extreme, can we?”
Besides, the responsibility lies with me. Whatever it is, bring it on!
To die beneath the peonies, and still be a romantic ghost.
Just kidding. As someone so pure and upright, how could I sacrifice my precious life for such a shameless act?
So, I thought about it. This matter couldn’t be resolved by myself. It would be best if someone could be by her side to guide her more.
“How about this, Xuan’er, why don’t you move in with Lily first? With someone she knows around, her emotions might stabilize a bit. Xueqing, you too, move in together.”
“Hoho? Are you planning to gather all the harem members together and truly establish a harem? Just like that time in the mirror world. It’s a shame the me in the mirror was silly and childish, didn’t receive your favor at all, Juncheng. What a pity.”
“I didn’t mean that.”
Suddenly being hit where it hurt, my shoulders slumped, and I hunched over, looking pathetic.
That period in the mirror world was truly absurd and regrettable.
“We know. Xue’er and I will try our best to help you, Juncheng. Just don’t collapse yourself first.”
“Mmm-hmm, don’t worry, I’m very resilient.”
“In what sense.”
No, no, I didn’t mean anything else, Xueqing.
“Hehe, then you have to treat me to a big meal! And the cosplay costumes, I haven’t forgotten.”
Ah, I’ll satisfy all your demands.
“Hehe, then Xue’er and I will look forward to it heartily~”
Seeing my agreement, Xuan’er giggled and, holding Xueqing’s hand, went back to the classroom.
These two are not an issue, and they indirectly told me that Lily has an issue.
So, next, I should go see her—after class.
