Looking at the tempting scene before him, Nie Qingyun felt his entire body harden.
But I just couldn't bring myself to say no...
Because the lovely and charming girl in front of him was his girlfriend.
Just as he was struggling with this dilemma, an ancient meme suddenly flashed through his mind.
The image shows a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt, his hair neatly parted in a three-seven split, with a deep expression, slowly uttering that profound saying—"Let's trust the old man's judgment!"
Then again...
Rinne-chan smells so good...
Like a green orange washed by rain.
……
In the office that has been renovated countless times.
Qin Hehuan stood in front of the French windows, gazing at the scattered figures in the distance, seemingly lost in thought, a rare gentle smile on her lips.
Only when the heavy metal door beeped did the girl turn around, reverting to her aloof and arrogant demeanor.
After entering the office, Saotome went straight to the desk, her voice tinged with worry.
"I found out about what happened beforehand."
"Oh? Who is it?" Qin Hehuan tapped the table as usual.
"The leader is called Ranma Tsuneno. He had a minor conflict with Cheng Yuqiu when Nie Qingyun had just left us, and we haven't had any contact with him since."
"Now serving as the leader of the third duty group, I was originally in charge of food collection. After the Freemasons went into martial law, I began to assist with logistical matters."
At this point, Saotome paused, glanced ahead, and continued:
"In addition, when I was inquiring about this matter... I found that Shi Chuanyu and Han Zheng also seemed to be inquiring about this person."
"Hmm," Qin Hehuan nodded, then asked aloud:
"Have these two been in contact with Ranma Tsuneno?"
"Not yet..." Saotome replied calmly.
"I temporarily placed Tsuneno Ranma in the meeting room under the pretext of work handover."
Upon hearing this, Qin Hehuan pondered in silence for a moment, then paused, pointing her finger and saying:
"Just right."
"In the name of the student council, Cheng Yuqiu was reassigned to Ranma Tsuneno's group."
"In addition, subtly reveal the news about Ranma Tsuneno to Kawabata and the other two."
"Huh?!" Saotome looked visibly surprised and blurted out instinctively:
"How can this be done..."
Saotome knew perfectly well that the reason Cheng Yuqiu was still so well-behaved was because Nie Qingyun had promised to take her out for activities soon.
If she were placed in a separate group... or even with people she's had a falling out with...
Given that young lady's personality.
This will surely cause an uproar!
Just then, Qin Hehuan suddenly revealed a meaningful smile and said calmly:
"Don't worry, she won't suffer any losses. Someone will rush over to clean up the mess."
Chapter 313: The Very Strong-Willed Young Lady
The gloomy room was filled with piles of messy cardboard boxes, and the floor was littered with food scraps and black mud stains. Some of the short-circuited light bulbs flickered on and off.
Logically speaking, a place used to entertain important "VIPs" should be more presentable, at least it should be tidied up in advance...
Unfortunately, the transfer order came too suddenly.
When Saotome announced that Cheng Yuqiu would be transferred to her group, Tsuneno Ranma almost thought he was hallucinating.
He never dreamed that such a stroke of good fortune would fall into his lap.
As the only Freemason with healing skills, even if Cheng Yuqiu doesn't participate in combat at all, as long as he provides paid healing services to the public as before, he can still bring considerable profits to the entire group.
Some may wonder why such personal gains are related to the interests of the entire task force.
This can be traced back to Qin Hehuan's unique centralized and autonomous management system.
Except in special circumstances, the student union will only assign directional tasks and targets to each action group. The specific implementation will be coordinated and the group leader will be responsible for it.
Given the current severe shortage of manpower, this management strategy can significantly reduce labor costs, but its drawbacks are also obvious.
Each team leader is like a local emperor to their team members, wielding supreme command authority.
Conversely, each person becomes the "common property" of the group.
However, this "unspoken rule" had no effect on Cheng Yuqiu.
The girl was sitting on the only relatively clean chair, her chin almost tilted back to the sky.
"I told you, I'm not in that mood!"
"If someone is injured, they should go and rest. I don't care!"
"You!" Ranma Tsuneno clenched his fist subconsciously, then relaxed it after a moment and winked at a young man with a bandage wrapped around his hand beside him.
After the latter retreated to the back, he forced a smile and said:
"Yujue... I know we had some minor disagreements before."
"But it's all in the past now, and I've already apologized."
"Now that you're here with me, you're under my jurisdiction. You need to get along well with everyone from now on."
"Don't call me by my name!!" Cheng Yuqiu clearly wasn't having any of it, turning her head and trying to make her expression look even fiercer as she said:
"Who wants to get along with you all!"
"You bunch of scoundrels! You'll only make rice more expensive if you stay in this world!"
"Stay away from me!"
Upon hearing this, Ranma Tsuneno's expression immediately darkened.
The dozen or so people in the room were all his subordinates. The girl's disrespectful behavior had humiliated him, so his tone became more threatening.
"That's not up to you..."
He then walked forward.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Yuqiu immediately summoned a one-handed short sword from the [Data Space] and drew a line on the floor with a "whoosh".
“If you dare to cross this line, I’ll have your legs broken.”
"Oh ho," Ranma Tsuneno immediately revealed a disdainful look, glanced at the sword mark two meters away, and then took a step forward:
"You probably don't understand the current situation... This is my territory."
This time, however, Cheng Yuqiu did not show any sign of backing down. He simply leaned back in his chair and uttered a few words in a low voice.
"try it yourself."
The girl at this moment was completely different from her previous timid and cowardly appearance.
This is also thanks to the various adventures I've had these past few days.
Moreover, even if we take a step back and assume Nie Qingyun is still nearby, she really doesn't believe that these few "outsiders" can do anything to her.
This gesture clearly had an effect; Ranma Tsuneno paused, his expression turning serious.
Although he didn't know why Cheng Yuqiu had suddenly been assigned to his place, this young lady's status was indeed different from before.
If he dares to do anything rashly now.
Not to mention Qin Hehuan's side, those guys in other groups who were eyeing the situation would be eager to jump out and act as righteous messengers.
But this matter cannot be left unresolved; we must make Cheng Yuqiu compromise today, no matter what.
Otherwise, the number of people in the group who refuse to be "disciplined" will only increase in the future.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, footsteps suddenly came from the doorway.
A timid-looking young man was pushed in, limping along.
Then someone stepped forward and said:
"Boss, this guy said he's here to see Cheng Yuqiu..."
"Hmm?" Ranma Tsuneno frowned, turned around and looked at the boy, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Upon seeing this, the latter immediately explained:
"Um... I, I came to see Miss Cheng Yuqiu... to help, to help me with my treatment."
As he spoke, the boy seemed to remember something and quickly added:
"Yes, Team Leader Nie Qingyun asked me to find Miss Yu Jue for treatment... He said it could be free..."
"Oh? Are you injured? Where are you hurt?" As soon as Cheng Yuqiu heard Nie Qingyun's name, she immediately stood up from her chair and went over to him.
In the messy room, the girl wore a gorgeous brogue dress, and a crystal pendant sparkled among her golden hair, like a princess who had inadvertently wandered out of the castle.
It subconsciously makes people feel ashamed of themselves.
The boy immediately took a step back and began to stammer nervously.
Cheng Yuqiu did not press the matter further and immediately summoned the [Holy Contract].
As the palm gently fanned the pages of the book, a soft light fell on the boy's head the next second.
The latter's previously pained expression also eased.
A moment later, his eyes suddenly became vacant again, and he began to mutter incoherently.
"Ah... Wanwan, I've finally seen you... I'm going to give you a good beating!"
Those around were speechless upon witnessing this scene.
However, at that moment, a gloomy voice suddenly came from behind, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
"Hey..." Ranma Tsuneno's eyes were filled with suppressed anger, and he almost squeezed the words out between his teeth.
"I can't pretend I didn't see that..."
"Just now, I don't recall giving you permission to treat him, did I?"
If Cheng Yuqiu's previous lack of cooperation had already caused Hengye Ranma to lose face in front of his team members, then this moment was a blatant slap in the face.
Compared to his patient and kind persuasion, Nie Qingyun didn't even show up before ordering the other party to obey his every command.
This might be more than just a slap in the face; if he doesn't get his revenge, he might really lose his footing.
If it were only Cheng Yuqiu here, there might not be much that could be done, but now... it's different.
Thinking of this, Ranma Tsuneno suddenly looked at the boy who had just recovered from his injuries.
"Hey, the treatment fees here are very expensive."
Chapter 314: Was this how fate was supposed to be?
"Hey, the treatment fees here are very expensive."
As he spoke, Ranma Tsuneno's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and in the blink of an eye, he took out a weapon from the [Data Space].
The boy who had been hallucinating earlier also woke up from his hallucination.
Their eyes met, and he instantly felt like he was being pricked by thorns.
Even if he was slow to react, he realized something was wrong and turned to run out the door without thinking.
"Trying to run away?!" Ranma Tsuneno roared, kicking down the henchmen blocking his way and chasing after them.
"Wait a minute!" Cheng Yuqiu looked anxious and wanted to follow, but was immediately blocked by two people.
Seeing the two men with unfriendly expressions in front of her, the girl subconsciously stopped in her tracks, but then her eyes sharpened, and she summoned a shield to hold in front of her.
If it were an ordinary person, it wouldn't matter, but since Nie Qingyun called the boy over, he must be someone related to the other party.
If she leaves it unattended, even if Nie Qingyun doesn't say anything later, she herself will still feel uneasy.
