Leisurely Fishing Time Flies By
Rosalyne looked at the crimson glow in the sky and let out a gentle sigh of relief.
She took off her coat and handed it back to Jams, returning to her elegant and composed demeanor.
"It's getting late. I should go back. Goodbye, Jams, little one."
"Klee is not a little one!"
Klee huffed and waved her small fist, clearly still upset about Rosalyne showing off her figure earlier.
"If that's the case, why don't you stay for a meal?"
Jams casually asked.
"No, there's still a lot to do."
Rosalyne tidied her slightly disheveled white hair and skirt, gracefully turning around.
"Wait!"
Just then, Jams suddenly called out to her.
Rosalyne paused for a moment, looking puzzled. "Is there something else?"
"You didn't catch any fish today. You must be feeling unsatisfied, right?" Jams winked at her.
"Well, a little."
Rosalyne gave him a glare and nodded in acknowledgment.
"In that case, how about night fishing by the Fruit Wine Lake? Let's fish until dawn together..."
"You're dreaming!"
Rosalyne decisively rejected, turning around and leaving Jams with a sexy and aloof figure.
"Heh."
Jams rubbed Klee's soft cheek and looked confident. "Klee, let me teach you something today—volunteers will come willingly."
...
Rosalyne returned to the dim secret chamber once again.
Anastasia, a consultant of the Fatui, half-knelt on the ground and spoke respectfully, "Madam, did you make any progress in your encounter with Jams?"
"... "
Rosalyne was slightly taken aback, only then realizing that there was still an important task left undone!
She was supposed to recruit Jams to join the Fatui today!
But other than being taken advantage of by Jams, it seemed like she hadn't done anything else.
Regardless, she couldn't let her subordinates know about the events of the day!
Seeing her subordinates' expectant eyes, Rosalyne lifted her chin slightly and spoke indifferently:
"At the time, there were too many people around Jams, so it wasn't convenient for in-depth communication. However, it's evident that he's quite interested in the Fatui, so he invited me to have a private conversation by the lake tonight."
"So, you're going to have a more in-depth conversation with him tonight?"
"... "
Rosalyne gritted her teeth, feeling frustrated in her lilac-colored eyes.
She didn't want to see Jams tonight at all, but she couldn't lose face in front of her subordinates!
"Yes, I will go and find him tonight. Hopefully, he won't disappoint me."
Anastasia nodded, showing admiration in her eyes. "With your personal involvement, Jams definitely has no reason to refuse!"
"Well... you may leave now. I want some time alone."
Rosalyne dismissed her subordinates and sat alone in the empty secret chamber, letting out a sigh.
Usually, she felt that this dim secret chamber suited her temperament.
But now, she felt somewhat out of place with the surrounding darkness.
Especially when she thought of Jams' handsome and sunny smile, her heart warmed, and she felt energized.
"Jams..."
Rosalyne lightly bit her lip, her tone carrying a hint of reproach.
If she had never seen the sunlight, she might have been able to endure this loneliness and darkness.
But after tasting the joy of laughter under the sunlight, no one could resist its beauty.
She rubbed her chest, her gaze complex, her heart in turmoil.
...
Late at night, when all was quiet.
With anticipation and unease, Rosalyne once again arrived at the shores of Cider Lake.
A dim, yellow lantern hung by the lake.
Under the warm glow of the lamp sat a relaxed figure.
"Jams, is that you?"
Upon seeing that figure, Rosalyne's complex emotions instantly turned into delight, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
She might not have noticed the change in her emotions herself, but with her haughty nature, even if she did, she wouldn't admit it.
Jams turned to look at her, his deep black eyes resembling stars, and his smile remained.
"Who else could it be but me?"
Jams raised an eyebrow and joked, "Rosalyne, I am your Xiayuhe(Famous TV Drama Characters) by the shores of Cider Lake."
"What Xiayuhe?"
Rosalyne walked over and gently kicked Jams' leg with her slender and beautiful leg, scolding, "You're talking nonsense again."
Despite her immediate kicking, this was a sign of their close relationship.
Physical abuse as a form of affection, if someone couldn't be bothered to hit or scold you, then they truly had lost all hope.
"Hey, come sit here."
Jams patted the small stool beside him and smiled teasingly.
"I thought you wouldn't come after refusing so decisively in the afternoon."
"What would you do if I didn't come tonight?"
Rosalyne sat down next to Jams with a gust of fragrance, her long and fair legs unabashedly stretching and crossing, and her eyes filled with curiosity.
"Then I would just keep waiting."
Jams shrugged, indifferent, and said, "Fishing is a patient endeavor. Even if it takes a thousand and one nights, it doesn't matter."
"You're bragging."
Rosalyne reached out and pinched Jams' handsome face, but she felt that this gesture was too intimate and quickly withdrew her hand.
"I'm sure you knew I would come tonight. After all, bad guys understand women the best."
"Uh."
Jams rolled his eyes and said unkindly, "We've known each other for less than a day, and you're already labeling me as a bad guy. Isn't that a bit too much? I haven't even started mistreating you yet!"
"It's too late once you start bullying me." Rosalyne chuckled and covered her lips.
"The esteemed leader of the Fatui is afraid of being bullied?"
Jams's tone was full of disdain.
"This kind of provocation won't work on me."
Rosalyne didn't take the bait at all. She turned her head to look at the dark lake surface and said directly, "Jams, the reason I came to you today is actually to ask if you're interested in joining us."
"The Fatui needs talents like you."
Setting aside Jams's lazy personality, his appearance, strength, and intellect were all excellent.
Rosalyne thought that if she could make Jams her right-hand man, she would definitely gain more influence within the Fatui!
"I see."
Jams displayed a look of realization.
To be honest, Jams had never considered the idea of being recruited before. He wasn't interested in these factions, and besides, he was such a lazy person himself.
Which boss would be foolish enough to hire an employee who only knew how to slack off... no, someone who constantly daydreamed about big boobs?
"Ah."
Jams suddenly let out a sigh.
"Why are you sighing all of a sudden?"
Rosalyne became a bit nervous and quickly said, "If you're dissatisfied with the compensation, we can discuss..."
"It's not that."
Jams shook his head, his face filled with disappointment. "Rosalyne, I'm disappointed in you."
"Huh?"
The disappointed look in Jams' eyes was like a sharp blade, deeply piercing Rosalyne's heart.
Rosalyne's elegant and beautiful face instantly turned pale, and a thin mist of water shimmered in her light purple eyes.
"What did I do wrong?"
She didn't expect Jams' reaction to be so intense.
Just as she felt at a loss, she heard Jams speak with a melancholic tone:
"Rosalyne, I'm disappointed in you! I thought you were only interested in my body, but it turns out you want me to work for you. Isn't my flesh enticing enough... Ahem!"
"You scoundrel, go die!"
Rosalyne's face immediately turned frosty!
Boom!
Without giving Jams a chance to continue speaking, a long and slender snow-white leg locked around Jams' neck!
"Oh god, scissor kick... cough, cough..."
Being choked by Rosalyne's long leg, Jams suddenly felt surrounded by her enticing fragrance, experiencing both pain and pleasure.
