"Why?"
The adjutant was taken aback. "You noticed?"
Xu Shi thought to himself, "What do you think? Don't underestimate my mental strength..." He knew he had this little tail following him when he left home this morning.
Otherwise, how could Yu Xingchuan have appeared at such a perfect moment? Did you really think she just happened to be passing by?
"I was just wandering around..."
Yu Xingchuan didn't admit it, stubbornly refusing to admit it.
But that's the truth. Following him will always lead to more opportunities, and if all else fails, we can create them... Don't underestimate my ambition!
Besides.
"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to find anyone to play the bad cop, would you?"
She pursed her lips, taking credit for herself.
The fact is that it's not Luo Yu's privilege to play the good cop and the bad cop; Xu Shi did the same thing just now, didn't he?
It was Yu Xingchuan who struck the victim; Xiao Xu simply continued to play the gentle and innocent girl, thus not only maintaining his image in the hearts of everyone on Silver Pine Island but also suffering no loss whatsoever.
Didn't you see that Pan Feng even came over to apologize to him just now? From this perspective, he has more to gain.
"Don't give me that, I can handle things without you."
Xu Shicai denied it, but what he said wasn't entirely false. Although it was a non-combatant like him facing four or even five opponents, he was carrying the latest technology from Night City, "Jade Capital."
When he was trapped in the sword formation, he only felt pressure for a moment. Once the protective force field was deployed, he felt no pressure at all. This is why he was able to handle the situation with such ease, which surprised those bronze-level players.
This is before ttckode is enabled; we don't know what will happen if we really get serious.
The fact that the protective force field could withstand it also indirectly proves that the supernatural abilities used by both the City of Night Sin and the Hualan Empire originated from "Rust Mist," or "Divine Breath," and are essentially the same.
However...
"Their sword formation was quite interesting."
Xu Shi did not deny this point, saying, "At least with the technology we currently possess, there is no such collaborative effort."
That's true. In the past, everyone in Night City fought alone, and when it came to cooperation, it was based on the division of labor according to their own abilities and characteristics. I've never seen a multi-person move like this where everyone works together in one direction.
This also proves that the Hualan Empire's superpower system does have its merits; every coin has two sides.
"That's really... not right!"
These words made Yu Xingchuan realize what was going on, but she quickly realized that someone was trying to change the subject. "No matter what, it was my turn this time! My performance... should give me some points, right?"
"...Okay, okay, add one point."
Xu Shi was both amused and exasperated. Good grief, why are you so fixated on that topic? Your ambition is practically overflowing the screen…
"Yay!"
"The total score is still up to me..." Xu Shi muttered to himself, "Let's go back to the base."
On the way, he casually asked about something else, "Speaking of which, what did you call me just now, young master?"
"Uh...yes."
The adjutant nodded. "Wouldn't it sound strange to call you Chairman Xu here? Calling you Captain Xu is also a bit awkward... So I'll just use the way Director Su addresses you. I'm your bodyguard, after all."
"No, you can't."
Xu Shi corrected him very seriously, "You can't just call someone that name casually."
The subtext is that only Su Lin can call him that, and no one else has the right to. The childhood sweetheart relationship is laid bare at this moment.
"...Okay."
Yu Xingchuan naturally understood what he meant, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He really wanted to complain to Chairman Xu about his favoritism... but after thinking about it carefully, he decided against it. Everyone knew what kind of relationship Su Lin had with him, and it was indeed something that someone like him, who had only recently entered the field, could not compare to.
But at that moment, Xu Shi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then changed his mind, "But what you said seems to make sense... Never mind, you can call her that if you want when she's not around."
"Why?"
The adjutant was stunned.
Xu Shi's attitude was quite interesting, and it instantly sparked her own little schemes.
Could this be considered a sign of goodwill? Thinking about it carefully, his attitude towards me is actually ambiguous, isn't it?
They were very concerned about me when we were on the ship, so what do you mean by saying this now?
She certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to think that Xu Shi would replace Su Lin with her, but it was certain that their relationship went beyond a normal employer-employee partnership, and there was probably still some goodwill between them.
This made her very happy, and she felt a little smug. She spoke with a straight face, but her intentions were not so pure.
I knew it! Xiaoyu has a certain charm!
"Understood, young master."
She responded sweetly, which reassured her much more than the vague promise of adding one or two points.
Xu Shi didn't speak, but simply smiled and nodded.
A wicked woman who makes no attempt to hide her intentions deserves to be disciplined in this way.
First, offer her a little something sweet to lure her in, then shatter it when the time is right...
Isn't that a bit too harsh?
He didn't think he could, and even if he could, he didn't care. After all, this was a task entrusted to him by Tang Shuang, and he had to do it well.
Anyway, this is the only trick I know. (doge)
Each with their own thoughts, they returned to the camp, where the others were already anxiously waiting.
"Dad, Dad, I heard you just had a conflict with that Luo Yu?"
Xia Ke'an was the first to rush over and ask, clinging to his arm and refusing to let go, "Are you hurt? What are they trying to do?!"
