Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 595 Suggestions

Yu and Xu paused, the former calmly turning around, while the latter felt a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

Good heavens... Could it be that Angkor is asking me why I said those scary things earlier?

How can he answer without arousing suspicion?!

"Did that kid Ajin tell you the way to the second floor?"

"..."

Xu Han was stunned for a second, not yet reacting. Yu Shijiu blinked and shook her head, saying:

"Ah Jin was afraid that the guests on the second floor would be angry if they woke up too early and couldn't find goat milk, so he left the lower deck without saying much."

Yu Shijiu's words were very clever. While praising A Jin's dedication, he also subtly implied that he and Xu Han didn't know the way.

Sure enough, Wu Ge frowned upon hearing this, revealing an extremely complicated expression before sighing.

"That kid Ajin, he's always so lazy when I assign him new guys, he's asking for a beating!"

As he spoke, Angkor pinched the space between his eyebrows forcefully, barely suppressing his displeasure:

"Come with me, I'll take you to the second floor."

"..."

Yu Shijiu and Xu Han, who had just realized what was happening and was still chewing on his unfinished bread, exchanged a glance and continued to nod with obedient smiles.

"Thank you, Angkor."

"Thank you, Angkor!"

In just a few short minutes, saying thank you became almost a mantra for the two of them.

Angkor was also amused, and his furrowed brow relaxed considerably.

"You two have quite the sweet talk, where did you learn that from?"

"what?"

Yu Shijiu feigned ignorance and followed behind Wu Ge, whispering:

"Learn what? I'm telling the truth!"

Lu Chusheng, who was silently following beside him, glanced up at the little liar who lied without batting an eye and didn't even blush. A smile flashed in his eyes.

Sometimes Lu Chusheng really wondered if the little boy in his memory who bickered with him every day (one-sidedly) was really Yu Shijiu.

The skinny little boy in my memory who always lazily leaned on the windowsill and looked at the sky didn't seem to have a very sweet tongue.

Will growing up in a nursing home change you?

Lu Chusheng hesitated for a few seconds, then uncontrollably kept looking up at Yu Shijiu, who was chatting (sweetly) with Brother Wu.

Yu Shijiu noticed someone was watching him and looked down to catch Feifei's eyes quickly moving away.

"?"

Yu Shijiu blinked at Feifei in confusion, then licked his lower lip, still puzzled.

Why does Fatty keep peeking at him lately?

It wasn’t like this before?

Could it be that... Fatty has finally realized that he should be his only master?

Thinking of Lu Chusheng's expression when he reappeared and found that Feifei was ignoring him, Yu Shijiu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Angkor: "?"

Angkor turned his head to look at the boy beside him who had suddenly started laughing, puzzled:

What funny thing did I just say?

"No."

Yu Shijiu quickly denied it: "Brother Wu, what you said is very useful. Thank you for being willing to say so much to help us."

Although frightened, Xu Han, who was watching from the sidelines, still noticed Yu Shijiu and Feifei staring at each other: "..."

His lips twitched slightly, but what he said was—"Yes, yes! Brother Wu, you are truly the best person we've ever met in our lives! You're so warm-hearted and kind, you're simply wonderful!"

"..."

Angkor's face flushed slightly from the praise. He coughed and pretended not to care, saying:

"Well, it's not that easy, but let me make this clear: if you don't work properly and your work attitude isn't right, I'll beat you and scold you as I see fit, understand?"

"I understand, I understand."

Xu Han nodded hurriedly, "We're both honest guys, really! Brother Wu, look at our work efficiency! We managed to milk two buckets of goat milk so quickly on our first try! We've worked incredibly hard!"

"Brother Wang, you and Brother Wu are both excellent seniors!"

(Wang Ji, who was assigning tasks to the two people on the deck, suddenly sneezed.)

(Hachoo—who's been talking badly about him behind his back?)

"..."

The three people and the cat chatted as they walked through the dining hall, then through several narrow corridors with iron plates, and finally stopped in front of a rusty iron door.

"This is it."

As he spoke, Angkor pushed open the iron gate.

The iron gate creaked from years of neglect, and Yu Shijiu and Xu Han could see a thin layer of red rust on the ground with just a casual glance.

Yu Shijiu wrinkled his nose, looked down at the two buckets of goat milk he was carrying, and finally understood why the iron buckets had lids.

It's probably to prevent rust and ash from getting in.

"I'm not going."

After opening the iron gate, Angkor stood by the gate without moving, looking somewhat troubled.

"There's a bunch of messy things waiting for me to deal with on the first floor. After you two deliver the goat milk to the second floor, you'll see a door. Just knock on it and someone will come to open it."

"...Don't worry if you knock for a long time and no one answers. The person inside probably didn't hear you. Just wait."

After saying that, Wu Ge turned his head and glanced at the big orange cat following Yu Shijiu. As if he had just noticed it, he frowned and said:

"Are you planning to keep this cat around forever?"

Lu Chusheng looked up at Brother Wu, his heart sinking.

For some reason... he could sense something bad from the gaze Angkor was giving him.

"?"

Yu Shijiu was somewhat surprised that the other party suddenly steered the topic to Feifei, and said:

"is it not OK?"

"...I suggest you don't."

"why?"

"There's no particular reason. I'm just suggesting you don't always carry it with you. Ultimately, it depends on what you think."

Angkor spoke very quickly. He walked up to Fatty, squatted down, and reached out to touch the other's furry hair.

Lu Chusheng suppressed his feline instinct to flee and remained crouched in place, motionless.

He usually becomes somewhat self-destructive at this point.

It would be better to let Fatty the cat be petted. After all, Lu Chusheng's true form is human, and being petted by someone... especially a big, burly man, feels just not right.

(The sleeping chubby cat in my mind: Don't mention me, I'm asleep)

"It's very well-behaved."

Angkor Wat clearly also likes cats, these furry creatures, and he strokes their fur very gently, as if he's afraid of hurting the big orange cat.

Yu Shijiu felt a little unhappy when he saw the hand that Yu Shijiu was touching, but he still nodded.

"It listens to me very well."

"……obedient."

Wu Ge repeated Yu Shijiu's words, stopped what he was doing, and his eyes glazed over for a moment.

"Here... obeying is the scariest thing..."

Wu Ge spoke the last few words in a very low voice. If Yu Shijiu hadn't been a little annoyed that he had been petting the cat for too long and was standing so close, he probably wouldn't have heard them.

What does it mean to be obedient... that's what's truly terrifying.

Can these two be used together to describe something?

Xu Han was timid, and in order not to cause trouble for Yu Shijiu, he only dared to huddle by the iron gate and peek out.

What are Angkor and Shi Jiu talking about?
