Huang Jian's lips twitched.
Do you have potential?
I think he's just a simple-minded idiot.
Huang Jian's expression changed several times in a second. Finally, he frowned and whispered to Shi Xinglong, "I always feel that the boss is very biased."
Shi Xinglong scratched his head. "Where should I begin?"
Seeing his surprised and doubtful expression, Huang Jian thought to himself, "What an idiot."
He smirked. "Guo Qingyun and Ke Run joined at the same time as us, but look at them, one is following Bat and the other is following Spirit Snake. It's obvious that the boss wants them to learn from Bat and Spirit Snake."
Shi Xinglong nodded in approval.
Huang Jian was unusually excited to see that he finally understood what Huang Jian meant.
He continued, "Why should we? We're all newbies. They get to learn from their seniors, while we're stuck doing manual labor at the docks, working ourselves to the bone and learning nothing. Don't you understand?"
Shi Xinglong nodded solemnly, "Understood."
Huang Jian glanced at his expression, still feeling a sense of disbelief. "Do you know what I mean?"
"I know," Shi Xinglong frowned and glared at him. "How could I not understand such a simple meaning? I'm not stupid."
Huang Jian: "......"
Haha... A fool says he's not a fool.
I've really learned something new.
I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "Then what do you think I mean?"
Shi Xinglong's shoulders slumped, and upon closer inspection, he looked somewhat dejected. "I know what you want to say is that the two of us are dumber than Guo Zi and Ke Zi."
Huang Jian: ? ? ?
Is that what I meant?
Shi Xinglong continued, "We are indeed not as smart or capable as them, but there's no need to belittle ourselves."
"Since the boss selected us, he must think we have a bright future and that one day our abilities and potential will be discovered."
Huang Jian: "......"
He shouldn't have expected that Shi Xinglong, that idiot with an almond-sized brain, to be any better.
Take a deep breath and try to calm yourself down.
That's not what I meant.
"Then what do you mean?" Shi Xinglong asked back.
Huang Jian lowered his voice, "What I mean is that the boss is too biased."
Shi Xinglong: "Oh."
What do you mean by "oh"?
"It means normal."
Huang Jian pinched his philtrum acupoint and said, "The boss is so biased, don't you have any thoughts or opinions about it?"
"Yes, I have."
Huang Jian's eyes lit up instantly.
Finally, we saw a glimmer of hope.
But the next second, Shi Xinglong's words plunged him into the abyss again.
"When did the boss start to favor me like this?" Shi Xinglong wondered with longing.
Huang Jian stood up abruptly, his face cold, and continued working.
It's hopeless.
Shi Xinglong quickly caught up, "Are you angry?"
Huang Jian remained expressionless. "No."
"You must be angry."
"If you say it's not there, then it's not."
"Look, you're angry again." Shi Xinglong didn't understand why he suddenly got angry, so he tugged at his arm and asked sincerely, "So, why are you angry?"
Huang Jian: "Get out!"
Shi Xinglong: "You're so ungrateful! I was trying to comfort you, and you told me to get lost."
Huang Jian: "......"
I have nothing to say.

"Who goes there?" In an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.
Inside the simple security room at the entrance, two burly men were playing cards, with banknotes piled on the table.
Hearing footsteps, assuming it was someone coming from above, he casually asked a question.
"Your ancestors."
My ancestors?
The two burly men muttered those three words to themselves, their attention drawn from the cards, "I...I..."
Just as they were about to lose their temper, two slender arms reached in, grabbed the back of their heads, and slammed them down hard.
"Bang!"
Their heads collided, and suddenly many stars appeared before their eyes.
"Wow, so many stars..."
He lay on the ground, feeling dizzy, and it took him a long time to recover.
Lin Xiaoxiao knocked them completely unconscious, dusted off her hands, and said to Ke Run behind her, "Follow me."
Ke Run, who was already numb, followed behind her with a blank expression, wanting to say something, but no sound came out of his throat.
He really wanted to ask, "Boss, is this how you save someone?"
He thought he was about to witness an epic scene of a mysterious agent appearing and disappearing without a trace, infiltrating enemy territory to rescue his teammates.
As a result, his boss simply swaggered around and took down everyone.
As it turned out, what surprised him even more was yet to come.
After sneaking into the factory, Ke Run hid in a corner and watched helplessly as Lin Xiaoxiao sneaked into the gambling table, slapped the banknotes she had just taken from the two security guards' tables on the table, and said, "Bet on big."
"Alright, are there any more bets? It's open now." The bookmaker's face was beaming with joy.
"Drive, drive, hurry up, stop dawdling."
"This hand is definitely small. Don't cry if you bet big later."
"Oh? If I lose this round, I'll really lose everything."
"What are you afraid of? You still have a set of clothes on. You can take them off if you lose."
"roll......"
The crowd inside the factory burst into laughter.
Lin Xiaoxiao laughed along with her.
Compared to the other tall men who were 1.78 meters tall, she looked like a dwarf in the middle.
Someone noticed she was a stranger and asked, "Who are you? When did you get here?"
Others also looked over.
Ke Run, huddled in the corner, tensed up, thinking to himself, "It's over, I've been discovered."
