Hua Mi took a picture of the photo on Gong Yi's desktop and sent it to him.

【Hua Mi: [photo].jpg】

[Hua Mi: Look what I found! The person in this photo looks so familiar.]

[Gong Yi: Oh.]

It seems like it was intentional. Yes, Gong Yi did it on purpose, deliberately letting Hua Mi go to his dormitory and see that photo.

[Hua Mi: Aren't you going to say anything?]

[Gong Yi: What did you say? That photo was cut out of a newspaper when I was doing a mission.]

This is his dream girl, but he doesn't plan to tell Hua Mi.

He could imagine how smug Hua Mi would be once the secret was revealed.

But even though he didn't say it, Hua Mi had already guessed it.

[Hua Mi: Hey boss, have you had a crush on me for years?]

Gong Yi didn't reply to the message; he didn't know how to respond.

[Hua Mi: Hahaha, boss, that's immoral! You're taking advantage of someone in distress!]

She always thought she had slept with a gigolo, little did she know, the gigolo was actually sleeping with his dream girl.

So all things considered, she's actually at a slight disadvantage.

No, it's not like she lost out; she got two free with her purchase.

[Gong Yi: Yes, I took advantage of you, but you promised me that night that you fell in love with me at first sight and wanted to date me.]

Since he was determined to break the ice, Gong Yi decided to be frank.

He didn't know what Hua Mi was thinking. Maybe she drank a little too much that night, but he took it seriously and never expected that Hua Mi would forget him completely the next day.

So he wanted to take responsibility, but the other party just shrugged it off and acted like nothing had happened.

What can he do?

He can't just act like a scoundrel and start bothering the girl from now on, can he?

[Gong Yi: If you're not lying to me, I won't lay a finger on you.]

She used sweet words to cloud his judgment, and he actually believed them.

[Hua Mi: The way you're talking right now makes you sound like a victim.]

[Gong Yi: I wouldn't call myself a victim. I'm quite happy. I'm just annoyed with you. You're not interested in me, yet you got yourself all drunk. If it were any other man, you probably would have taken advantage of him too.]

This is the thing that Gong Yi has always been most concerned about.

She didn't know how to protect herself properly. Although it was their first time that night, she clearly got into trouble and got herself completely drunk.

She was quite heartbroken and told him a lot about how he was a jerk.

He seemed to be out drinking and ready to risk everything.

Unfortunately, Gong Yi was a complete novice when it came to relationships.

He really doesn't understand anything; he's incredibly naive in this regard.

If he weren't so innocent, he probably wouldn't have taken a fictional character as his dream lover and secretly harbored a crush on him for years.

So afterwards, Gong Yi, this innocent young man, also wondered if Hua Mi hadn't met him that day, but had met just any Tom, Dick, or Harry, would she have slept with him too?

The moment he thought about this possibility, he felt that Hua Mi was definitely worthy of the label "scumbag woman".

He was helpless because his dream girl was like this.

[Hua Mi: No way, I'm quite picky. Even after all this time, I still remember that I chose the most handsome male escort in the whole bar.]

[Gong Yi: ? What did you say? A duck?]

[Hua Mi: Man, I mistyped, hehehe.]

[Hua Mi: So, you know, I'm very picky about food. I won't touch anyone who isn't handsome. You need to have confidence in yourself; you're the most handsome man in the whole bar.]

Inside the armored vehicle, Gong Yi charged his phone while raising an eyebrow at the message from Hua Mi on the screen.

A slight smile curved his lips; thank you, he felt comforted.

[Hua Mi: So Gong Yi, how can you be so innocent? You've liked a two-dimensional character for several years? It must have been four or five years.]

Gong Yi no longer wanted to reply to Hua Mi's messages. She was completely unaware that she herself was just a paper doll on his desk.

Judging from the tone of her message, she seemed to be discussing his virtual love interest in a very objective manner.

What's wrong with liking anime characters? He was locked up in a garrison camp full of monks, a place where even a bikini magazine wasn't allowed in. So it seemed perfectly normal for him to like anime characters.

The armored vehicle was swaying. Gong Yi and his group had already entered the Xiang A Expressway. After a short distance, the road would be blocked, so they had to abandon the vehicle and walk into the garrison camp in City A.

He went to the garrison camp in City A to investigate the whereabouts of those weapons.

Hua Mi, however, soon found herself bored in Gong Yi's dormitory.

It's impossible to memorize the Eight Honors and Eight Shames and the rules and regulations; it's impossible to memorize them in this lifetime.

Bored out of her mind, Hua Mi called Chi Chuan.

"Chuanzi, you said we saw some roadblocks on the fork between the Xiang A Expressway and the AB Expressway. How about we go up and shoot them down, double-cross them?"

Ikegawa was transporting a truckload of oranges from the B City supply depot, ready to be shipped to B City, when he heard this and was startled.

"We've already made enough money, why would we need to resort to double-crossing?"

He's already overwhelmed with supplying goods to two cities, so where would he find the time to engage in double-crossing?

To everyone's surprise, Hua Mi suddenly fell silent for a moment on the other end of the phone.

Immediately, she slapped her thigh in delight.

"Great idea, Chi Chuan! I'll call Uncle Ba and the others, and we'll do it your way!"

Ikegawa: "??? No, I didn't say anything."
