"Brother Feng, please take it easy on . I've never written more than a thousand words in an essay since I was a kid. A ten thousand word reflection might as well kill !"
"Brother Feng, dear brother, how about we negotiate and write a total of ten thousand words together?"
"Please make an exception!"
In the corridor, the Martial Monks were wailing in distress, all feeling imnse pressure.
Xiao Feng frowned, glancing at Hua Ling's subordinates, then at his own eighteen Martial Monks, feeling a strong dissatisfaction arise.
This is the difference between regular troops and bandits, oh no, regular troops and ragtag soldiers.
The other side follows orders strictly, the boss's words are gospel, and they don't dare to complain.
In contrast, his own people were all talking at once, creating chaos and appearing extrely unrefined.
"Do you guys think ten thousand words is too little, and want to add more?" Xiao Feng asked coldly.
The Martial Monks exchanged glances and quickly shut their mouths, not daring to continue bargaining.
At this mont, Hua Ling spoke up: "I think ten thousand words is a bit inappropriate."
"Little Hua Ling, you..." Hui Yi said emotionally, "You're truly a dear junior sister, the senior brothers haven't cherished you in vain!"
The other seventeen nodded vigorously, feeling a burst of warmth, at the critical mont, it was still their junior sister who spoke up for them.
Xiao Feng glanced at the Martial Monks, who were almost moved to tears, and sneered in his heart, asking Hua Ling: "What do you think is appropriate then?"
"What do the senior brothers think?" Hua Ling asked the Martial Monks.
The Martial Monks didn't speak, but quietly gestured with their fingers.
So held up one finger, indicating a thousand; others held up two fingers, indicating two thousand.
Looking around, the highest was Hui Wu, who held up three fingers.
Hua Ling pointed at Hui Wu and said, "Let's go with what Fifth Brother suggested, thirty thousand words per person."
"??? "
The Martial Monks were all stunned; we counted our fingers in thousands, not tens of thousands!
In an instant, their originally warm hearts felt like they had been doused with a basin of ice water, utterly chilled!
Xiao Feng wasn't pleased and said, "Why should I listen to your suggestion?"
"Can't you do it as a favor to ?" Hua Ling said sincerely.
"Since you put it that way..." Xiao Feng contemplated, rubbing his chin, seemingly wavering.
The Martial Monks' hearts were in their throats, hoping he wouldn't agree, hoping he wouldn't agree!
However, things didn't go as wished.
Xiao Feng nodded and said, "Alright then, I'll give you this favor, thirty thousand words per person, requirents unchanged, sa as before."
The Martial Monks wanted to die with despair, Hui Shiba looked at Hua Ling woefully: "Xiao Ling, why are you treating us this way?"
"It was Fifth Brother who requested it himself." Hua Ling said earnestly, "I won't hold a grudge just because you left for your annual salary."
"..." The Martial Monks.
They understood, finally understood why they t their demise.
Wronged?
Definitely wronged!
But before they could explain, Gong Kaishan ca up from the stairway looking defeated, his face sour: "He still got away, that old fox has too many tricks for escape, we tailed him for hours and lost him."
Hua Ling and Xiao Feng exchanged a look, simultaneously feeling a sensation.
The runaway old master from tonight will surely beco a major problem in the future.
But saying anything now is pointless, trying to capture him after he's fled is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
"Notify Qian Shaoyuan, focus on Pang Tong's disappearance spot and retrieve the surveillance footage within a kiloter radius; anwhile, use Jiao Yuhang as a breakthrough point to see if there's a thod to lure Pang Tong out." Hua Ling ordered.
Gong Kaishan agreed, feeling indescribably frustrated, after all that work, the big fish got away, leaving only a small fry, what a disappointnt!
Xiao Feng glanced at the ti, almost two in the morning, then called the Martial Monks: "Alright, with six hours before breakfast, go back and start writing your reflections."
The Martial Monks hung their heads, wishing they could write "Life has no aning" on a piece of paper and stick it to their foreheads.
Just after taking a few steps, Xiao Feng paused, seemingly rembering sothing, and said: "Soone's missing... where's Aspergillus oryzae?"
"Boss, we arrived right as he fell unconscious at the entrance for unknown reasons and couldn't be awakened," Hui Yi explained.
Then he speculated: "I personally think that old geezer is just faking unconsciousness to avoid trouble, waiting until we've solved everything to wake up."
Gong Kaishan and the others were dumbfounded, what a blatant lie! Would he have fainted if you hadn't crashed into him?
"Where is he?" Xiao Feng asked.
Hui Shiqi said: "I put him in the room next door."
"Carry him out, let's go!" Xiao Feng said impatiently.
Hui Shiqi and Hui Shiba entered the adjacent room, one in front and one behind, carrying Aspergillus oryzae out on their shoulders.
"Wait a minute!" Hua Ling called to Xiao Feng and said, "I have sothing to tell you privately."
Xiao Feng didn't think much of it, instructed the Martial Monks to go ahead, then agreed.
Hua Ling also instructed her subordinates briefly, then headed towards the stairway, then descended, disappearing into the corridor.
"Why so mysterious?" Xiao Feng said with amusent.
Hua Ling gestured: "Step down one step."
"What do you an?"
"Co on, just step down."
Confused, Xiao Feng stepped down a step, aligning roughly with Hua Ling's height.
"Lean over." Hua Ling beckoned.
After a short hesitation, Xiao Feng leaned his ear closer, completely unaware of the slyness that flickered in the girl's eyes on the stair above.
The next mont, Hua Ling quickly pressed her cheek to Xiao Feng's lips.
Boom!
Xiao Feng's mind went blank, utterly confused about what just happened.
After three seconds, Hua Ling stepped back, hands behind her back, laughing: "You said I wash my face with horse urine, well now you kissed , so it's like you drank horse urine, right?
Ahahaha!"
"..." Xiao Feng.
Watching Hua Ling laugh brazenly, with the look of satisfied mischief in her eyes, he truly felt the inability to retort.
This kid's intelligence, it's completely zero, possibly even negative!
"Hmph! See if you will dare spread rumors again," Hua Ling said with annoyance, then with hands behind her back, she ascended the stairs with brisk steps.
Xiao Feng didn't know that just as she turned away, her pretty face turned extrely red, and the pride in her eyes transford into shyness.
He's probably thinking my intelligence is questionable again?
I think he's the one lacking in brains!
With these thoughts, an involuntary smile ford on her lips, and the previously normal footsteps changed into a little skip.
However, seeing her subordinates glance her way, Hua Ling instantly resud normalcy, her smile suppressed, steps steady, as usual.
The Demon Suppression Action Team mbers exchanged puzzled looks, all feeling that the boss's behavior was a bit unusual now, yet couldn't pinpoint exactly how.
