Chapter 709: Chapter 709: Cough Cough Cough Cough
“Battle 5,” Yan Qingwen answered, “The Inspector is the comic man; he demands a team of five for the war.”
At her answer, Shen Mo nodded and asked, “Who are you thinking of bringing along?”
Yan Qingwen frowned; she seed troubled, “I’ve not decided yet… Definitely bringing Su Man along, as she’s agile and good at team work. Lu Yuwen is smart, he’d be a great help. Zhu Shu, although she doesn’t have an obvious upper hand, is adaptable to the ga and great at observing… I’m still short of one more person. Maybe I’ll pick from those who were chosen to be officials.”
“Have you considered Li Li?” Shen Mo said, “You two have collaborated before and are rather familiar.”
Yan Qingwen gently shook her head, “He did approach , but I turned him down. The Li family had been kind to in the past, I can’t bring their only son into this.”
“You still have a couple of weeks,” Shen Mo reassured, “Comic Man’s gas tend to be ntal battles. When selecting your team, it’s not just about how smart they are, but there must be an enough strong willpower as well. Otherwise, it could get dicey.”
“Hmm.” Yan Qingwen nodded, “I get it.”
Finally, Yan Qingwen asked Shen Mo, “What about your side? Have you all decided on who’s going to be the King?”
At the ntion of this, Shen Mo couldn’t help furrowing his eyebrows.
Before he could answer, Yan Qingwen continued, “Let Bai Youwei be the King.”
Shen Mo looked at him sowhat surprised, “You think she’s more suitable too?”
Yan Qingwen quirked the corner of his lips, “It’s not about who’s more suitable, but rather who you can’t say no to.”
Shen Mo: “…”
He glanced at the distance, where Bai Youwei was chatting excitedly with Su Man and Zhu Shu. He had no idea what the three won were talking about, but they all seed to be having a great ti.
“I don’t want her to take the risk,” Shen Mo sighed.
“It’s natural for a man to want to protect his woman,” Yan Qingwen teased, “Just think of it as the end of the world, and her last wish is to be the King. As her man, are you going to help her or not?”
Shen Mo smiled, not saying a word.
…
On the other side, the ladies were laughing at sothing, attracting quite a bit of attention and curious looks from the nearby n.
Lu Yuwen brought over a fruit platter, smiling as he asked, “What are you chatting about that makes you all so happy.”
“We’re talking about having a tomato bath,” Su Man took the fruit platter from him, picking a grape to eat, “…Ugh, it’s so sour!”
“Be content that you have sothing to eat~” Bai Youwei picked out a piece of lon and popped it into her mouth, “The lon isn’t bad… And the tomatoes, Zhu Shu, can we use these for a tomato bath?”
“Sure, as long as you have enough of them,” Zhu Shu laughed, “Though I guess after you co out, you might look sowhat terrifying.”
Bai Youwei blinked, “Why? Didn’t you just say that a tomato bath is rich in organic acids, which can help exfoliate and promote skin tabolism… Also, it can help maintain the balance of the skin’s pH?”
“Well, yes, that’s true…” Zhu Shu bit into a cherry tomato, she added with a smile, “But when you co out imdiately after the bath, you might look like you’ve just been to a bloody battle.”
“Pff!” Su Man burst out laughing, “Hahaha *cough cough cough! Cough…cough…cough!”
Lu Yuwen gently patted her back, watching her cough, he found it sowhat amusing, “I’ll get you so water.”
Su Man: “*Cough… Cough cough…Alright…*
Bai Youwei winked at Su Man, “Su Man, Lu Yuwen is quite nice to you~”
“Yeah, he is! *Cough… cough…*,” Su Man replied, “We have… *Cough… Cough cough! Coughed our lungs out together!”
Bai Youwei glanced at Lu Yuwen’s retreating back, teasing, “Together till the end? Oh~ Have you two made vows to each other already?”
Su Man was coughing so hard it was earth-shattering, “*Cough cough cough cough cough!!!”
