Hui Pao watched You Tong leave, his head bowed. A deep glint flashed in his eyes, but when he looked up again, his expression had returned to normal.
He turned to look at the three rows of cyborgs, waved his hand dismissively, and said:
"Set off."
"yes."
The crowd responded.
The group neatly lined up in a row, led by Gray Chef, and left the underground palace, heading towards the human settlement...
Meanwhile, the people in the base area were unaware of the impending crisis...
"Sister Ling Shu."
Chongming patted Ling Shu's head in a flattering manner, handed her the things in his hand, and glanced at Ling Shuang.
At that moment, Ling Shuang was talking to someone, so he found Ling Shu and gestured for her to hand the item over to Ling Shuang.
He would absolutely never admit that he was embarrassed...
Ling Shu blinked her big eyes, but did not immediately take the thing from Chongming's hand.
A soft, sweet female voice came through:
“Brother Chongming, if you want to pursue my sister, go for it yourself. I’m not going to be a gofer.”
That's just how it is.
Ling Shu pursed her lips.
She likes her older sister but doesn't say so, yet she keeps making her run errands and deliver things that even she wouldn't want...
Ling Shu glanced at the thing in her hand.
Goodness, this time it's actually a wooden doll.
She stopped playing with this when she was three years old, okay?
Not to mention her aloof older sister...
Ling Shu glanced at Chongming with a hint of disdain, straightened her back, and added:
"Also, don't touch my head, I'm not a child anymore!"
Chongming nodded in agreement, then pointed to the object in his hand and said:
"Alright, alright, Ling Shu, I'll do as you say. Could you help me give it to your sister?"
"No! If you want to take him, go take him yourself."
"No, Ling Shu, you know perfectly well that your sister doesn't want to talk to me at all except when it comes to important matters, let alone give me anything..."
"It's good that you know."
Chongming walked along, seemingly resigned, and said:
"Sigh... then I'll have to ask my good brother Qin Feng for help. It's always easier to talk to a brother..."
"Hey, wait a minute!"
As he expected, Ling Shu did indeed call out to him.
Chongming wasn't in a hurry to leave, and leisurely said:
"What's wrong, Ling Shu? I asked my brother for help, you wouldn't stop me, would you? Hmm?"
Ling Shu said somewhat shyly:
"Um... Brother Chongming, let me deliver it for you, so you don't need to trouble Brother Qinfeng..."
Chongming laughed teasingly and said:
"Huh? Are you sure?"
Ling Shu nodded vigorously, taking the wooden carving with absolute certainty, and said as she ran, turning back to say:
"Brother Chongming! I'll take the things to you! Don't worry! By the way,"
Ling Shu suddenly turned around halfway through her run and ran back.
"What's wrong, my little aunt?"
Chongming looked at Ling Shu, who had run back again, and was somewhat puzzled.
Then he saw Ling Shu suddenly move closer to him. She was very short, and even when she tried to stand on tiptoe, she couldn't reach Chongming's shoulder.
She gestured for Chongming to bend down.
Chongming bent down and muttered:
"What's all the secrecy about? Can't you just say it directly..."
Seeing that Chongming was at the perfect height, Ling Shu leaned closer, covered her mouth with her hand, and whispered in his ear:
"Um... Brother Chongming, I just wanted to ask you, what does Brother Qin Feng like?"
"puff."
Chongming couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. He'd thought something important was going on, but this little brat...
He straightened up, gently tapped Ling Shu's forehead with his finger, and whispered:
"You..."
Ling Shu blinked her big eyes again, looking pleading. If it were someone else, they might be fooled by her appearance and wouldn't have the heart to scold her.
However, those who know her well know that Ling Shu's appearance is all an act. Don't be fooled by her innocent and naive appearance; she is actually quite cunning and ruthless...
As expected, Ling Shu casually tossed the wooden carving in her hand and slowly said:
“Brother Chongming, what do you think… if I stumble and fall along this journey, and accidentally break someone’s heart?”
Chongming quickly knelt down before her.
He was internally devastated. How could this little brat be so difficult to deal with...?
But he absolutely couldn't afford to offend her; she'd be his future aunt...
