Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 1016 - 110: Performance and Meeting Guests_2
A team built around a Songstress has coordination and strength far surpassing ordinary groups. Even if the Songstress herself is mediocre in ability, she can possess decision-making power far beyond average when supported by a strong team.
"Welcome~ Mr. Jolos, Mrs. Mulansa." The young girl slightly lifted her skirt and curtsied.
"Hello, Lady Tilan." The elderly couple also bowed in courtesy and then shook hands with Tilan.
The elderly couple, with hair as white as snow, were already over 90 years old, a substantial age even in today's advanced medical world, and they were arranged to be the first to meet due to their seniority.
After sitting down together, the elderly couple began to share their story.
"I first became acquainted with Tilan quite by accident during a news broadcast. Watching such a spirited young girl in battle was quite surprising, and that's how we learned of Lady Tilan's background," they slowly recounted their process of getting to know Tilan.
The couple grew up in the Red Birch Tree Star Region and met during university years in the Central Star Domain, fell in love, and later returned home to establish a plant-based materials company, which soon achieved success, allowing them to progressively expand the business.
"It was quite difficult at first, even though I had some direction with inspiration, the experiments didn't go well, failing many times, sometimes I even thought about giving up." The old man reminisced.
"However, my love always supported me, touching me deeply, so I persevered until one day, by chance, I found the most suitable ingredient ratio to create the first needed product."
"With this formula, I borrowed some funds from the bank, and then started running a small manufacturing enterprise, mainly supplying raw materials to those in need. This plant raw material powder greatly enhanced the durability of other materials when mixed, making it needed in many fields."
"As the reputation grew, more and more companies sent orders to us, gradually, the company expanded."
"Due to the initial hardships, I treasure this company very much, but unfortunately, my two children are quite ordinary, making continued management of the company very difficult."
"What is your idea?" Tilan tentatively asked.
"I would like to ask Miss Tilan to act as a middleman to find a suitable successor for the company. We are willing to sell sixty percent of the shares and relinquish control, as long as my children can keep the remaining portion and ensure their future well-being."
"This kind of matter, surely quite a few financial consulting structures can handle it?"
"Indeed, but financial matters are too complex, involving too many people of dishonest nature. We are unable to trust them, hence we turned to Lady Tilan for assistance."
As a Songstress, due to reasons of identity and talent, is unlikely to lie easily, making her a trustworthy point of reliance for many, and thus not surprising that the couple sought her out.
"I understand your request. I will have my companions look into the specifics of your company, and provide you with a response within three days."
"Thank you very much, Lady Tilan. Here's the current information about the company." The elderly man handed over an envelope containing a chip card.
Seeing Tilan agree to pay attention and respond, the elderly couple felt at ease and took their leave without further delay.
The first guest's problem was not simple, the young girl thought.
After sitting and resting briefly in the living room, another guest dressed in a deep purple gown steps inside shortly.
"Good evening, honorable Lady Tilan." He first makes a solemn bow and then sits on the sofa at Tilan's arrangement.
"From the first moment I saw you, I decided that you would become the most dazzling Songstress." His attitude was very respectful, and he expressed his endless admiration.
This gentleman was a member of the 'Southern October Star.' Early in Tilan's high school years, he learned of the young Songstress's identity and general character through Mrs. Lian Xin.
"Your charm and strength moved me, and I am willing to be your loyal follower, becoming a force for your world-changing endeavor."
Although his attitude was sincere, Tilan hesitated for a moment before slightly nodding because she was meeting such a person for the first time.
The subsequent guests were relatively normal, all high-ranking officials of the Federation, attending to watch the performance partly for official duty and partly to forge good relations with the Songstress.
Time flew quickly, soon arriving at dinner time after meeting with a retired old general and being reminded by a companion of the limited time.
"The banquet is about to start, and for the remaining guests, you can meet them later."
Then, Tilan led a group to the prepared restaurant to dine with the guests.
Once all the bustling activities finished, it was already midnight.
In the resting room, a young girl covered the black-haired girl sleeping on the sofa with a light blanket, then stood by with a companion, occasionally communicating via typing, and checking on the girl in deep sleep.
"Exhausted, Tilan Chairperson." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
"Saw 26 groups of guests tonight, 16 of them requested issues that require further follow-up decision-making. Although Tilan Chairperson is Sequence 6, and her body doesn't tire, mentally she is quite fatigued."
"Let her sleep a bit. According to the maid guarding on that side, the Chairman typically recovers some spirit after a short nap, and then goes to soak in a warm bath before sleeping."
With her head resting on her arm, Tilan breathed gently, her body slightly rising and falling, eyelashes occasionally quivering, seeming to be dreaming.
After about 15 minutes, the young girl opened her eyes, glanced at her surroundings as consciousness awakened, sat up, letting the light blanket fall, revealing her fitted gown, and the radiant legs, the large skirt she had unfastened and taken off before her nap, with the inner lining akin to a short skirt, slightly less graceful, slightly more youthful and adorable.
Rubbing her eyes, Tilan reluctantly stood up.
"Everyone should go home; it's late." By this time, it was already 12:30 AM.
"Chairperson, rest well~"
Then the remaining members slowly dispersed, leaving Tilan and the ten or so red-skirted maids beside her.
After everyone left, the young girl turned off the lights, went to the window, gazing at the distant night scene, the night wind gently brushed by, clearing her mind.
Dreamt again, the young girl mused quietly.
Only slept for about 15 minutes on the surface, but the dream seemed unusually long, running behind her elder sister Temisia in the dream, the sister gleefully teasing, and just as she rushed to catch up, her sister vanished, leaving her a lone figure standing on the empty ground, seeing no one.
When closely counted, her sister left about ten years ago, who would have thought she would still dream of her, did childhood influence remain so enduring? Though she has long grown accustomed to living alone.
Perhaps merely lonely then.
She met many strangers today, most drawn to her as a Songstress though each had their own plans and agendas, and if unmet, willing to leave at any time.
Such calculating interests, scheming, are truly disliked.
Probably why she began to miss Temisia, for her sister never hesitated, and if it were Temisia, how would she act? Tilan knew her own nature was not suited for maneuvering within such interest arenas.
Closing her eyes, scenes related to Temisia surfaced in the young girl's mind, the other's mode of thought, approach to matters, mindset, etc.
Despite not being Temisia, Hexia's perceptual ability is quite keen, and being twin sisters makes it easy for her to understand the underlying logic of Temisia's personality.
As thoughts became clearer, Hexia began to shift her approach thinking, simulate Temisia's personality to address the day's issues.
If someone approached with a motive of interest from the start, why offer them rare warmth and kindness, if they cared not for her feelings, is there then value in spending much thought considering theirs.
Temisia would not waste time on people and things she found uninteresting, directly delegated others to handle for her.
If someone dared feign and deceive her, she'd immediately turn hostile, openly ridiculing their ideas, punishing such deceivers.
Confident, decisive, strong, never doubting nor shrinking, this sister akin to an assertive queen, extremely individualistic.
Thinking while walking down the corridor, the framed pictures reflecting slight light and shadow, and the black-haired girl passing through reflecting in them, with captivating purple eyes.
