Chapter 136 I Don't Want to See Others Protect My Brother
The fox slowly and methodically presented his idea.
Those golden eyes revealed nothing but a calm and composed confidence.
It seemed to him that everything in front of him was just a chessboard.
He is the absolute mastermind behind this game.
All the other guests are merely chess pieces scattered on the chessboard.
Every action and every self-righteous thought has been clearly seen by the manipulator.
There is nowhere to escape.
With this thought in mind, Chu Zhu nodded in agreement almost without hesitation.
For a moment.
He felt incredibly lucky!
As expected, telling the truth in a game will get you kind people!
After all, the fact that they could analyze so much with him and even directly point out a guest from the villainous camp proves that Qi Yu and Bai Luochuan's identities are exactly as they said!
Imperial people do not lie to Imperial people.
Chu Zhu felt as if he had witnessed the radiance of humanity.
He and Qi Yu hit it off immediately.
Without discussing anything further, the two of them walked back into the hall.
Qi Yu walked over to Bai Luochuan and sat down next to him again. Then she asked him in a low voice what Lan Muxing had just told him, and Bai Luochuan answered her honestly without hiding anything.
All of this seems quite normal.
But let's shift to God's perspective.
The fans in the live stream were completely unable to sit still any longer:
[Holy crap! Did you guys see how Qi Yu was chatting with Chu Zhu just now? He's been so love-obsessed on this show that I almost forgot he's always been this kind of man who controls everything!]
Seriously! Even though it's just through a screen, looking into Qi Yu's eyes, I felt like I had to follow his orders. Is this the inherent domineering aura of someone in a position of power?
To be honest, I'm a little ashamed to admit it, but seeing him like that just now suddenly reminded me of the despair I felt during my freshman year military training. He's even scarier than our head instructor; who would dare disobey him?!
Stop talking, stop talking. Looking into his eyes, I felt like he was going to drag me out and shoot me any second now.
[Chu Zhu's insensitivity is truly unmatched! With that carefree attitude, he's completely unaware that he's being totally controlled!]
[But why did Qi Yu say Mu Xing was a villain? Was Lan Mu Xing's interaction with Bai Luochuan just an act? Holy crap! No wonder he's my favorite! His acting was absolutely superb!]
The discussion in the live chat continued.
Bai Luochuan had already finished explaining the situation to Qi Yu.
However, when it came time for Qi Yu to decide whether or not to form a team, he remained silent, narrowed his eyes, and turned to look at Lan Muxing and Chu Zhu on the other side, seemingly waiting for a result.
Having understood his meaning, Bai Luochuan also remained silent.
He quietly watched the two people over there.
Chu-soo also rarely showed his acting skills.
He told Lan Muxing that his identity was indeed a knight, and that Qi Yu had also told him that Lan Muxing's identity should be a hunter. The four of them were ordinary people and could form an alliance.
Lan Muxing was flattered.
He was about to reach out and shake hands with Chu Zhuye.
Unexpectedly, Chu Zhu took out a silver pendant from his pocket and handed it to Lan Muxing.
He continued, "You know the rules of a knight, right? The production team gave me a pendant. As long as you wear this pendant around your neck, you'll be under my protection. That way, whether it's a vampire or a werewolf, if they try to kill you, the pendant can protect you from one attack."
Knights are synonymous with protection.
This is an understanding that almost everyone subconsciously grasps.
But Lan Muxing didn't accept his offer immediately. Instead, she glanced warily at Bai Luochuan and Qi Yu on the other side, and hesitantly asked, "Did they... also receive this pendant?"
Chu Zhu shook his head and said, "There's only one pendant. Since it can't protect me, I can only give it to players I'm sure of. As for those two, I originally wanted to give it to them. But they both said they could protect themselves and didn't need me to give it to them. Since it's already there, you can keep it."
It seems to be an answer that is flawless.
But Lan Muxing still showed no intention of accepting the pendant.
I felt like I was about to break out in a cold sweat.
He simply couldn't think of any reason why he could refuse.
Then Yang Qingfeng and Xu Zhengyin walked over.
Lan Muxing finally managed a forced, unpleasant smile. He said, "I think that compared to professions like ours where we can protect ourselves, Bai Luochuan needs this pendant more. After all, reporters aren't dangerous, so..."
"But I will protect him, and to be honest, I don't want it to be something given to me by someone else that helps me protect my brother."
They didn't even give Lan Muxing a chance to finish speaking.
Qi Yu interrupted with a smile and gave his own answer.
If someone else said this, it would indeed be full of strange loopholes.
But coming from Qi Yu, this chosen one with a love-obsessed mind.
Everything seemed so reasonable then.
Lan Muxing was speechless after being rebuked by him.
Xu Zhengyin, who had returned to the sofa, asked bluntly, "What are you talking about? Why is the atmosphere so strange? Did you find some villain player?"
“No, not at all,” Qi Yu replied with a smile. “It’s just that Chu Zhu proved his knighthood, saying that the pendant in his hand could be used to protect others. I took a look, and the pattern on it is indeed a shield. I don’t think he was lying, but Lan Muxing dared not accept his pendant.”
It sounds like I'm simply explaining the situation.
But it also tells everyone that Lan Muxing has revealed his villainous identity as quickly as possible.
Xu Zhengyin stroked his chin and let out a long "Oh".
Then he walked up to Lan Muxing and, taking advantage of her momentary daze, took one of her hands.
He placed it to his lips and kissed it.
He said, "Well, we'll find out their true identity by taking a gamble, won't we?"
