"Thank you for your concern, boss. Everything is fine at home." Night Orchid replied with a smile.
"Hasn't your father been urging you?" Billy asked with a smile.
"Can he not?" Night Orchid pouted her sexy lips. "It's a necessary topic every time we talk on the phone. If we don't discuss it, he won't let me hang up!"
"He is eager to have a grandchild!" Billy laughed.
"Commander, you'd better help Night Orchid find a boyfriend soon!" Brigham Bush, who was at the driver's seat, finally gathered the courage to speak.
"She's not getting any younger, and all our brothers below have been worried for her. We've introduced countless men to her, but she won't even meet them." He continued. "Last time, she finally agreed to meet someone, but after just a few sentences, she scared the poor guy so badly that I doubt he'll ever go on a blind date again."
"Hahaha..." Billy burst into laughter.
"Brigham Bush, are you itching for trouble?" Night Orchid glared at him.
"Night Orchid, how did you scare him?" Stout was curious.
"He asked me what I do for a living, and I told him I'm with SHADOW." Night Orchid pouted. "Then he asked if I've ever killed anyone, and I casually mentioned that hundreds, if not thousands, of people have died by my hands. After that, he lost control of his bladder. Can I be blamed for that?"
Stout nearly choked and then continued to comment, "Night Orchid, with your temperament, if you go on dates like this, besides the people around boss, I doubt anyone would dare to marry you. You kill at the drop of a hat. What if one day you have a quarrel with your husband?"
He added teasingly, "You might scare the poor guy to death!"
"Get lost!" Night Orchid rolled her eyes at Stout.
"Hahaha!" Brigham Bush couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Night Orchid, how about I introduce someone to you? I promise you'll be satisfied!" Stout suggested again.
"Just you? Forget it!" Night Orchid replied. "Apart from knowing the people from Secret Essences, I bet you only know people from Army of Bloodshadow and SHADOW."
"How is that possible? I know plenty of people!" Stout responded. "Next time, I'll take you to meet him, and you'll see."
"You'd better spare me!" Night Orchid continued, "If you really know any outstanding men, how about introducing them to Ivy first? She's older than me by a month."
"My sister? Stout glanced at Billy subconsciously. "In this lifetime, I think she won't marry anyone but boss. Besides him, no one can catch her eye..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Billy gave him a resounding slap on the back of his head.
"Gosh, Stout, are you trying to push your sister onto boss?" Night Orchid teased. "You'd better be careful. If Mrs Knight finds out, I think your good days in Ozin will come to an end."
"It's true!" Stout continued. "I can see from Ivy's attitude. If she doesn't end up with boss in this lifetime, she'll probably live out her days on Ether Mountain. She says she was born for him!"
Night Orchid giggled. "You made that up!"
"Stout, if you say that again, get the fuck out of here and go back to the Mountain." Said Billy.
"Come on!" Stout quickly shouted, "Can't I just not say it next time?"
As he finished speaking, he mumbled to himself again, "Why don't you believe me? Next time, I'll have my sister tell boss herself!"
Another slap landed on the back of his head, causing him to see stars.
"Night Orchid, let me introduce someone to you!" Billy then looked at Night Orchid.
"Who is it?" Night Orchid blinked in confusion.
