Capítulo 1532: Chapter 1503: Now This Is Awkward (Part 3)
The four City Lords nodded repeatedly. Even though they knew Song Xiaodong was using a carrot-and-stick approach, they had no choice in the matter.
Having dispelled the ambitions of these four City Lords, Song Xiaodong’s subsequent conversation with them beca quite pleasant. He even took out so small gifts for the four City Lords.
More importantly, Song Xiaodong introduced Qiao Yunxi and He Lingzhi to them, saying, “I’ve been appointed by the higher-ups to manage your world fully, and these two are my wives. They will act on my behalf here. If you have any needs, you can address them to these two, and we’ll figure out a way to et your needs.”
The four City Lords showed strange expressions on their faces. Here, it’s a norm to respect males, so having two won in such positions was clearly uncomfortable for them.
He Lingzhi was quite excited about being here, and she asked, “City Lords, I’ve heard you all are masters, how about sparring a bit?”
Song Xiaodong imdiately said, “Lingzhi, the Kung Fu of these four City Lords is beyond what you can compare. If you try to engage with them, you’d only end up being beaten. Try practicing with ordinary people first; everyone here is an expert, not like regular folks.”
He Lingzhi stuck out her tongue playfully and said, “Alright then, I’ll take it up with them one by one later.”
Qiao Yunxi, on the other hand, appeared calm and did not say much.
In the evening, Song Xiaodong and the others gathered in a room, enjoying a al of the local specialty. Then Song Xiaodong called Qiao Yunxi aside.
After seating Qiao Yunxi, Song Xiaodong said, “Yunxi, do you feel any pressure?”
Qiao Yunxi nodded and said, “Yes, indeed I do. I’ve noticed that the n here all seem to be highly skilled in Kung Fu, and the won’s status is too low. If I manage things, I’m really afraid that the n won’t be convinced.”
Song Xiaodong said, “You don’t need to get them to submit to you. The main task now is coordination. We hold a lot of resources, which is what they most need. With these, they won’t dare to defy us.”
“I understand,” Qiao Yunxi nodded heavily and then opened her mouth as if she wanted to say sothing but hesitated.
“Is there anything else? You can speak freely with ; you don’t need to be afraid of anything.”

Qiao Yunxi hesitated and said, “With you trusting
like this, aren’t you afraid that I might ss things up?”
“Everyone makes mistakes. The key is how you summarize your errors and not repeat them in the future. This world is essentially a blank slate, offering you opportunities for trial and error. As the Dragon Gate Princess, you’ll undoubtedly bear many responsibilities in the future of Dragon Gate, and this is a perfect training opportunity for you.”
Qiao Yunxi said, “But I haven’t read many books. Considering the Dragon Gate Princess matters, couldn’t you let Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin handle it? They might be more suitable.”
Song Xiaodong laughed: “So abilities are innate. Although they are very smart and have more academic qualifications, they don’t have this natural gift for managent. Among you three, you are definitely the most suited for this role. What you’ve learned cos from practice and exploration, whereas their knowledge is book-learned with no practical experience, still lacking a lot.” Qiao Yunxi gave Song Xiaodong a aningful look and said, “Alright, I will do my best.”
Song Xiaodong stood up and patted Qiao Yunxi on the shoulder, saying, “Yunxi, go for it. No matter what happens, I will always be your strong support.”
“Hmm!” Qiao Yunxi opened her mouth to say thank you, but couldn’t get the words out.
After leaving Qiao Yunxi, Song Xiaodong heard a burst of laughter and the sound of water, suggesting that the other won were bathing.
When Song Xiaodong and the group arrived, each of the four City Lords sent ten maidservants, making up a total of forty maidservants here, and now over ten maids were attending to everyone’s bathing.
Song Xiaodong pushed the door open and went inside. Lin Shu imdiately exclaid excitedly, “Uncle, uncle, this really is a treat, co and have a bath.”
He Lingzhi also excitedly said, “Exactly, exactly, this place is so exotic! I’ve never had anyone help
bathe like this before, it’s fantastic.”
Song Xiaodong laughed heartily and said, “You’re right, although the conditions here are modest, the ambiance of such a bathing experience is indeed unique. I’ll join in.”
“Seriously, Uncle, with so many girls here, you’re going to bathe too?” Lin Shu gaped in surprise.
Song Xiaodong chuckled lightly and said, “Yes, I’ve been living here for almost a month now, and people usually help
bathe anyway. I’m just following the local customs.”
“How shaless!” He Lingzhi remarked disdainfully.
Lin Shu mischievously said, “Uncle, are you wondering who to squeeze into a tub with? If you want to co to mine, I wouldn’t mind at all.”
He Lingzhi teased imdiately, saying, “Honey, hurry to Xiao Shu’s side. She’s eagerly awaiting your favor.”
Lin Shu raised her chin, saying, “Sister Lingzhi, you’re with Uncle every day, so you can’t understand a hungry person’s plight. It’s only natural for
to be eager.”
He Lingzhi blinked, proudly saying, “True that, you five can’t really share a bed with him, haha.”
