Chapter 797: Chapter 797: Fu Miaoxue’s Subjects
The manager led the waitstaff away, and the dining room gradually returned to normal.
Fu Miaoxue sidled up to Bai Youwei, curiously asking her, “When did your temper become so good? I thought you’d lay into them and really give them a piece of your mind~”
“They didn’t say anything wrong, why would I cuss them out?” Bai Youwei calmly continued eating, glanced at her and asked, “Do you have a lot of spare time? Why are you here stirring up trouble?”
Fu Miaoxue was a puppet, she didn’t need to eat at all.
“I’m here to accompany my boyfriend~” Fu Miaoxue linked arms with Du Lai who was beside her, and then asked Bai Youwei, “What about your boyfriend? Why isn’t he accompanying you?”
Bai Youwei was silent for a moment, then replied, “He’s in the medical area.”
...
Fu Miaoxue’s eyes widened, “Your boyfriend got injured? Wow…he is so powerful. I can’t believe he would get injured.”
“He’s not the one who got injured; our team mate did.” Bai Youwei frowned in irritation.
She thought of the white gloves again.
Tan Xiao was injured by bamboo splinters and steel bars, Asarina was hurt by the cloned puppet, human-air balloons injured Along and Ya Chaohui…
If they hadn’t prepared mud in advance, they might not have been able to save either Tan Xiao or Asarina in this battle game.
Bai Youwei looked up at Fu Miaoxue and Du Lai, “And you? Was the battle game smooth for you?”
“Absolutely smooth!” Fu Miaoxue said proudly, “We didn’t even enter the game, the opposite side surrendered! Haha~ I won without effort!”
“They surrendered…” Bai Youwei contemplated, “Probably because they had no interest in competing in the maze war or they cannot meet the required player count.”
“Yes.” Fu Miaoxue nodded, “There were only two people on their side. So few people simply can’t afford to play. I happened to have a shortage of people, so now they are all my subjects!”
Bai Youwei laughed, “Do they know your true identity? Were they scared?”
Not everyone can accept a puppet as a king.
Fu Miaoxue thought seriously, then told Bai Youwei, “The tall one didn’t seem to care, but that little girl, she’s sly, she seemed to have figured it out…”
“Little girl?” Bai Youwei blinked, “I say, despite not being human anymore, don’t go too far. There’s no need to involve the little girl in the game, is there?”
“You don’t know! She’s not very old, but she’s experienced!” Fu Miaoxue frowned in displeasure, “Besides, how am I not human anymore? Where don’t I look like it? Huh?”
Bai Youwei’s gaze slipped past her shoulder and saw two figures, a tall one and a short one, emerging from behind Fu Miaoxue.
She was briefly startled, finding the smaller figure oddly familiar.
That seemed to be the student she had met back in Yangzhou, who was with Tu Dan… what was his name again?
“Have you found someone to enter the labyrinth with yet?” The girl and the tall man approached together, catching sight of Bai Youwei behind the dining table, they too were momentarily startled.
Fu Miaoxue, reminded by her, finally realized that she got caught up chatting with Bai Youwei and hadn’t mentioned the actual matter at hand.
“This is Chen Hui and Leonid. We suspect that the difficulty of the third battle will escalate significantly, so we want to make a trip to the maze, but we are short of hands.” Fu Miaoxue asked Bai Youwei with a cheerful smile, “You have so many team mates, could you lend us a few?”
Seeing Bai Youwei, Chen Hui covered her mouth in surprise, seemingly somewhat excited, “Do… do you remember me? In the second maze, it was you who led us out!”
Fu Miaoxue was utterly baffled, looking at Bai Youwei and then at Chen Hui, “What? You two know each other?”
Bai Youwei nodded, and because of their acquaintance, her smile was noticeably warmer. She asked Chen Hui, “You said before that you were looking for Teacher Tu’s son. Where did you go after that? How did you end up participating in the maze war?”
What do you think?
