Transmigrated With A Resolution System

Chapter 265 Can I Ask One Question?



Fegan counted the number of heads and coughed on the little water in his throat.

'How the heck did 8 people get to my cottage?!' His eyes widened as he noticed the person who had suffered the downpour.

"Am I that despicable you spit water on me while I came visiting?" Nix said in irritation, shaking his head and splashing its content on his teammates.

Solis immediately heated his body and sneered jokingly. "Don't you dare soil my body, you conceited dragon tamer!"

They all looked up and gasped at the shirtless Fegan.

"Someone's been busy?" Lank interrupted and wiggled his brows and nudged Obsidian in the rib so he could be aware of the whole situation.

Fegan looked down at his body and realized how his naked body could be seen by them.

Dashing back into his room, he rushed to get his shirt and was met with a puzzled Lotus.

She had heard a voice outside and was curious to know who had spoken to him in such a way.

Fegan had been searching for his shirt when he heard a gasp from below. Hurriedly pulling on his shorts down his head, he closed his eyes at the sight of Lotus looking down the window just like he had done.

"Miss Lotus?!!!" They all chorused and left Obsidian in a lot of confusion.

"Who's miss Lotus?" He questioned and narrowed his eyes on them all.

Lotus had her gaze pinned on Lumina who had also returned the favor and glared hard with glowing eyes.

Nix could feel the hostility growing between the two and couldn't get the reason for such a reaction.

Lotus felt a grip on her wrist and got pulled back into the room and an angry-looking Fegan.

"Why the heck did you just do that?!" He hissed and shook his head, "could you please watch over my daughter and not make a scene?!"

Lotus looked stunned for a moment and gave a nod, rubbing her shoulder in uneasiness before walking out of the room.

Fegan felt like a lump had grown in his throat and leaned on the wall when he tried to get a grip on the reality of being confronted by more guests.

–––––––––––

Click!

Nix stepped in and observed the several pieces of furniture that still looked the same as they had been.

"I see you still haven't covered the ceiling and its beams are still visible." He nodded his head and made his way to a hammock.

"That's the interior design ki–"

Fegan shut his lips when he got a glare from Nix on his despicable name for him.

Clearing his throat to recover from the shock, he forced a smile. "You should know that from your last visit."

"How the heck did you find such a wonder?" Lank asked excitedly and marveled at the greenery that surrounded them.

"These climbing plants weren't here last time, that I can tell is different," Nix suggested with his eyes narrowed and suggestively.

Fegan let out a sigh and confirmed it was newly grown by the very person they suspected.

"You've known our supervisor for how long?" Lank pried when he felt it was too quiet for him to stand awkwardly in.

Lumina and Gia were silent all through the conversation and had their hands folded in dismay.

Going down the stairs was Lotus, she had her bare feet give a light creak to the wooden stairs as she descended, giving a dramatic hair flip back once she got down the last one.

Lumina had her face scrunched up in disgust and the willingness to puke was visibly shown on her face.

"We've known since we were kids." Lotus interrupted with a confident smirk.

Fegan placed his hand over her mouth and pulled her to the side with the keen eyes of his guests.

"I had told you to watch my daughter, why the heck are you here?!" He hissed and stared at her in disappointment.

Looking up the stairs and worrying about his daughter's safety.

Lotus didn't respond but lightly patted his shoulder to alert him to the fact that Nix was staring behind him.

"Ahhh!" He let out a yelp in fright and jumped back.

"It seems you are missing something." Nix pointed out, seeing Miss Lotus, yet not the covert ninja girl who was Fegan's daughter.

Fegan's sweat dropped and looked around awkwardly, "why would I miss out on anything?!"

Lotus switched glances between the two and wondered why Nix would be so casual speaking with someone old enough to be his father or uncle.

Then she looked at Fegan and wondered why he was acting a little too cowardly to someone of no status or known ability.

"Are you sure about that, sir?" Nix pressured with a disturbing grin, searching the area with his eyes.

"Oh, you mean Hana?"

Nodding his head to finally hear something of such, he inquired where she was.

"What do you want with Hana?!" Lotus questioned protectively, feeling threatened by the conversation between the two.

Nix glared at Miss Lotus and ignored her question, not until he heard a comment from behind him.

"Exactly, could you explain why you seek whoever this Hana is?" Lumina whispered into Nix's ears which sent tiny shock waves traveling through his entire body.

He froze upon the subtle threat given and gulped. He would need to pick out his words well before he plants discord between the two ladies.

Hana was just a little angel that needed proper guidance and care, this was different from the wild and unpredictable little devil he had within his grasp.

"She had sustained an injury when I had left, I was just curious about how she was doing, right?" He looked down at Fegan after his last word and sought assistance in escaping the danger that might loom if they engaged.

Fegan undoubtedly took the cue and nodded his head to affirm the claim.

Lumina narrowed her eyes and rubbed her chin with a hum.

Alex walked up to them upon having listened in on their conversation. He had picked up on the name that Nix had called and could instantly tell the girl in his dreams could be the daughter of the man.

Placing a hand on Nix's shoulder, he whispered something into his ear and smiled as soon as he pulled back.

"Could you take up to see her, my friend here has something special that must be of help to your daughter." Nix offered with a big smile.

Fegan was at first skeptical about what Nix had wanted to do, skeptical if he already had an insight about his daughter's condition.

Remembering how his daughter could be cured, he decides to give her a chance in hopes of her reviving with their appearance.

"Right this way." He whispered and gave Lotus a look to be more hospitable than the stuff look she gave the others.

Lotus rolled her eyes and walked over to the rest to interact.

"Miss Lotus! Do join us!" Lank hollered her over with a cheer and a bright smile.

Gia tugged back a loose strand of hair as she watched their supervisor join them on the black wool mat on the floor.

Obsidian had not spoken a word since they had entered and was more interested in feeding his eyes with the numerous furniture work, wooden art, and plants.

Luna stared at Obsidian and was fantasizing about spending alone time with him.

"Would you please hide the fact that you just want to grab a hold of him and feel some of his meat in you?!" Solis scoffed and rolled his eyes at the display.

Wham!

Blowing on her knuckles, she had a bright smile when her punch on her brother's head caught the attention of everyone present and Obsidian had one of the heart-stealing smiles and gave a thumbs up to the act.

Getting to his feet, he offered his hand to Luna so they could venture out while the others were distracted by the presence of the green-haired lady.

Taking his offer, he got to his feet and pulled her out for a little woods adventure.

Solis was left sulking in despair at being left out and looked at his crossed-legged feet. "I would never find someone who would be interested in me!"

"Miss Lotus, could I ask one question?" Lank cut in with a wide grin.

Settling at the available space meant for Alex, she nodded her head and kept her cool as she prepared for the question.

"Lank, I think you shouldn't." Gia tugged at his sleeve, knowing Lank was going to ask an embarrassing or sensitive question.

Temporarily distracted, Lank leaned towards her for a peck on the lips–stunning her completely and her grip loosened from his sleeve.

A blush formed on her cheeks and she forgot what she had wanted to emphasize but instead gave a shy smile.

Looking back at Miss Lotus, his smile only brightened as he dropped the question that had been on his mind since their arrival.

"Why were the owner of this place shirtless and you being casually in his room with only a revealing nightdress?"
