Lin Baici understood instantly!

Living in this world, who doesn’t care about face?

The high ponytail was bearing the title of team leader, loving this stuff.

"How about this, from now on, whenever I ask for your opinion, I’ll give two options, and you choose the second one!"

Lin Baici thought for a moment and said, "If I’m unsure, I’ll give an option or three, you can make the decision, or follow your own thoughts."

"Mhm mhm!"

Xia Hongyao felt enlightened, this was exactly what she wanted: "Little Linzi, I’m sorry for the trouble!"

"What’s so troublesome about it?"

Lin Baici chuckled, "You’re the leader, with more of your opinions our Seventh Star can walk on the right path!"

This sweet talk had quite the effect, Xia Hongyao immediately beamed and involuntarily hugged Lin Baici, planting a kiss on his forehead.

MUA!

"Hehe, as expected, my Little Linzi is the most considerate!"

Xia Hongyao snuggled her head into Lin Baici’s embrace like a wild cat and rubbed vigorously!

"Oh dear!"

Lin Baici felt numbed, hastily leaning back.

"Hey, why are you pressing against me!"

As Xia Hongyao spoke, she instinctively raised her leg, wanting to push it aside, but after several attempts, she didn’t succeed.

Then Xia Hongyao suddenly realized what it was!

Even though she’d never been in bed with someone, she knew what was happening, and her face turned a bit red.

However, as the team leader, she couldn’t lose her poise, so she cleared her throat, "I know young people are full of energy, but you have to understand moderation!"

"Right now, in Qin Palace, the more energy you have, the better your odds!"

"..."

You’re lecturing me now?

Lin Baici couldn’t help but laugh, if it weren’t for you, would I be like this?

And could you hurry up and go away?

"That’s it then!"

Xia Hongyao tried to crawl out, but halfway through, she stopped, with her two big bears right in Lin Baici’s face.

Because they were so big, they directly buried his face in them.

Xia Hongyao retreated back into the sleeping bag.

"Um..."

Xia Hongyao hesitated to speak, considering that Lin Baici agreed to take care of her face, then left like this, seemed disloyal?

Should she give something back?

Or stay a bit longer?

Otherwise, it would seem too utilitarian!

"What’s the matter now?"

Lin Baici was getting a headache, who can sleep like this?

Indeed, Xia Hongyao treated him like a brother, without boundaries, but the issue was, his little brother wasn’t controlled by his brain.

"When you have a baby in the future, if... if... her mom’s milk isn’t enough, I’ll help you feed!"

After holding back for a long time, Xia Hongyao finally squeezed out this sentence: "I’ll be her godmother!"

"How can that be if you aren’t married with kids?"

Lin Baici couldn’t take it anymore: "Hurry up and go back to your tent to sleep!"

As someone of Lin Baici’s status, he naturally had his own little tent, though Kim Myungjin and Hua Yue Yu were with him.

Xia Hongyao, Gu Qingqiu, San Miyairi, Long Miaomiao, and the other girls shared a tent.

"Oh!"

Xia Hongyao noticed Lin Baici seemed angry and didn’t dare to say more, and quickly left, but stood at the tent entrance, looked back.

"Stop overthinking it, you’re the leader of our Seventh Star, we hold you in the highest esteem!"

Lin Baici reassured her.

Finally, Xia Hongyao left, but Lin Baici still couldn’t sleep.

He turned over a few times, and then noticed some movement on Kim Myungjin’s side.

Lin Baici looked over and saw the Goryeo girl in her sleeping bag, watching him.

"What? Are you scared?"

Lin Baici laughed softly, voice low, "Don’t worry, I’ll do everything to get us out!"

"With you, I’m not afraid no matter where we are!"

Kim Myungjin confessed.

"Same goes for me!"

Hua Yue Yu wasn’t asleep either.

Lin Baici smiled, feeling the deep affection from both girls.

Sigh!

So difficult!

The more it was like this, the harder it was to let go, but what about Ji Xinyan and Gu Qingxiang?

With Teabuddy’s personality, if he sweet-talked her, she might agree, but would that hurt her?

After spending so much time with Teabuddy, Lin Baici enjoyed such a lifestyle, but what if she couldn’t accept this Lin Baici?

And the student counselor...

Lin Baici sensed Gu Qingxiang wasn’t the type to tolerate her husband having other women.

"Let’s just sleep!"

Lin Baici closed his eyes, deciding to stop thinking about it; he’d worry about getting out of Qin Palace alive first.

"Oppa, can you sleep?"

Kim Myungjin asked softly.

"Nope!"

Lin Baici replied honestly.

The flame within him was already ignited by Xia Hongyao.

"Small Fish, this sleeping bag is too small, let’s do rock-paper-scissors!"

Kim Myungjin murmured, followed by the rustling sound of undressing, and the Goryeo girl got into Lin Baici’s sleeping bag.

"I think three people could fit, you can try!"

Hua Yue Yu teased.

Looks like it’ll be necessary to master rock-paper-scissors, or else I won’t get the first soup.

...

Early the next morning, Lin Baici emerged from the tent looking refreshed.

If it had been Nangong Shu, he would definitely be catching up on sleep now, but the Goryeo girl and Little Merperson, those little weaklings, couldn’t take on Lin Baici even two-on-one.

They were absolutely the surrender group!

With Lin Baici awake, who dared to keep sleeping?

Everyone climbed out of their tents as fast as they could.

"Let’s head out after breakfast!"

Lin Baici distributed the supplies.

A quarter of an hour later, the 76-member temporary team set off.

After five hours, everyone finally emerged from the mountain range.

Looking ahead, a vast plain lay before them, shrouded in a light white mist that made everything look blurry, like glaucoma had set in, quite uncomfortable.

Lin Baici looked up; the sky was overcast, as if it were about to rain.

Gurgle gurgle!

Lin Baici’s stomach rumbled again.

"Red Medicine, which way do we go? 11 o’clock direction? Or 2 o’clock?"

Lin Baici’s hunger pointed the way; if nothing unexpected happened, going this way, they would surely meet God.

Xia Hongyao’s spirits lifted,

Here it comes!

The code!

Xia Hongyao squinted into the distance, pretending to ponder for a minute: "This way!"

"Is there a reason?"

From the rear of the crowd, the man with the eyepatch abruptly asked.
