Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands-Chapter 542: Meeting of the guild leaders

"I am telling you that you need to add a little more sugar to this pastry," Old Master Tang pointed out as he looked at Luo Huian, who was busy whipping the cream in the bowl. He said, "While I do like the subtle sweetness, it is dulled by the cream. I think adding a tad bit more sugar will make it even more delicious."

"Are you sure that the dessert is not sweet or are you the one who wants to eat more sweet pastries?" Yu Xiang Qiao teased the old man, who puffed his chest out and then said to her, "I am giving genuine advice here! Do you think that I am so foolish that I will do such a thing?" He then turned to look at Luo Huian before saying, "Tell them. If I wanted to eat sweeter desserts, would I need to make any kind of lie? I can simply tell you that I want to eat it. I don't think you will say no to me?"

Luo Huian was simply amused by the obnoxious attitude of the old man but she was glad that he was getting better. At least he was no longer as restrained as he was before, which showed that he had gotten used to them.

"By the way," Old Master Tang looked at Yuanyuan, who was sleeping on the floor and said to Luo Huian, "Is it alright to bring this dungeon spirit to the bakery? What if you get raided by the food security bureau?"

Yuanyuan was not a fox but it was still a dungeon spirit. What if this thing went against the regulations of food security? Wouldn't it be a shame if the bakery was shut down?

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuanyuan opened one eye and then peered up at him. Letting out a growl at the old man, he stared at him with a thorny glare.

When the old man saw the glare targeted at him, he was amused. He remarked, "Ah, I completely forgot that these things can understand what we say, don't they?"

Yuanyuan only let out a snort before turning her head away. However, when she saw Luo Huian looking at her, she let out a whimper and softly whined as if it was she who was getting bullied.

Seeing this everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing. This peace, however, was broken when the door of the bakery was pushed open and Luo Qingling strode inside. She glanced at the laughing crew and ignored their surprised expression before turning to look at Luo Huian. She said to her, "Huian, can you come with me?"

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Luo Huian poured the fluffy cream in a chilled bowl and started to scoop it out and fill the whipping bag. She thought that Luo Qingling only had something to say to her but what she heard next nearly made her drop everything that she was holding in her hands.

"The guild masters are coming to see me? Why!?" Luo Huian was stuffed in the makeup room before being styled and sent out of the room. She glanced at Luo Qingling and questioned in a slow voice, "Didn't I say that you should deal with this matter? So how come I am being dragged into this matter again?"

She was sure that this matter was already dealt with when she told Luo Qingling to ask the guild masters to sign the contract. But she never thought that she would be dragged into meeting these powerful figures all of a sudden.

"I refused your presence at the meeting," stated Luo Qingling coldly. "But then Miss Gu arrived and told me that it was not right for you to be kept in the dark. Even though I let her know that you have given me the charge and allowed me to deal with this meeting, she didn't quite believe it."

When Luo Qingling thought about Gu Sirou's attempts to bring Luo Huian to the meeting room, she knew that there was something wrong with that woman. However, Gu Sirou still had the identity of the head of the council; thus, even if she wanted to stop her, she didn't have the right to do it.

Luo Huian furrowed her brows when she heard that the Gu woman was once again targeting her. She wanted to know what the grudge between the two of them was but then again, she knew that she had never met Gu Sirou in her entire life.

Luo Qingling noticed that Luo Huian didn't look well and said to her, "If you don't want to, then we can skip this meeting. I will let them know that you cannot talk to them."

After she finished speaking she walked over to the meeting room but was stopped by Luo Huian, who pulled her back by her collar and then said to her, "Don't. If you send them back, what will they think? Isn't it good enough that we are being given so much importance? This way we are one up when compared to the rest of the guilds. Why not make use of it?"

After she finished speaking, she stared at Luo Qingling, whose heart was filled with resistance. "But—"

"No buts," Luo Huian shook her head. "There is no need to get worried. I know that it will be a bit problematic for me to face so many S-rank hunters but you are forgetting that we also have that Madam Gu with us. Who knows what that woman might have planned for us?"

Luo Huian was not stupid. She could see that there was something amiss with this Gu woman. However, she had no proof.

She could only face the obstacles in front of her one at a time. Now that she had decided to stay in this world, she would never let anyone bully her.

When she arrived at the meeting room, she saw Wei Yucheng standing outside. The mer seemed to be worried about something and it made Luo Huian arch a brow. She asked, "What's the matter?"

Wei Yucheng jumped a little. He never expected that he would run into Luo Huian here, as he knew how much Luo Qingling was protective of her sister. Shouldn't she have stopped Luo Huian from coming here?

"It's nothing." although Wei Yucheng was worried about Luo Huian's sudden appearance, he still pretended to be calm. He raised his hand and made an action of wiping the dirt off her shoulders only to instill a small spell to cover traces of her being the Luo Huian of the immortal realm.

He knew that the reason Gu Sirou came here was not only because she wanted to entrap Luo Qingling but also because she wanted to see if Luo Huian was the one from the immortal realm. He couldn't let this woman trace the truth yet.

Luo Huian sensed some changes around her but before she could question the mer, the door of the meeting room opened and she was pushed inside. She blinked her eyes and stared at the shimmering room, only to realise that the room was filled with vibrant power that lit up the entire space.

She looked at the many hunters who were sitting at the round table and looking at her with the same curious look on their faces. They all stared at her as if they wanted to see through her skin and peer right within her head.

For a second Luo Huian stiffened but then relaxed after a short while. She raised her head and smiled at the people in front of her before saying, "Hello? I heard that you were quite inclined to meet with me."

As soon as she stepped inside, she sensed someone trying to appraise her but before the energy could dig deep, it was pulled back. Realising that something was amiss, Luo Huian raised her head only to see Luo Qingling step forward and push her behind.

"I wonder what Miss Gu is trying to achieve by doing such a thing?" Luo Qingling asked as she looked at the woman who stood in front of her. She was not a fool; the second the changes in the atmosphere happened, she knew that the woman was trying to pull some weird stunt at Luo Huian.

There was one thing that she could never accept and that was someone trying to harm Luo Huian. Thus, the second she saw that Gu Sirou was trying to use appraisal on her sister, she couldn't help but say in a cold voice, "I thought I told Miss Gu that my sister is still an F-class hunter. You cannot use your skills on her in such a manner."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Sirou curled her lips and smiled. She remarked in a slow voice, "You are misunderstanding me, Miss Luo. I was just trying to appraise her skills for better clarity." She paused and added, "After all, there are many who would use the skills of others and claim it as theirs."
