Chapter 136 Decision
Shi Ying didn't sleep either.

The thought of Sang Qing having other beast husbands in the future kept him tossing and turning at night.

Just because it's not there now doesn't mean it won't be in the future.

he knows.

But he didn't want to.

He wanted things to stay this way, with only him as the little bodhisattva, and for it to continue indefinitely.

A faint light suddenly shone from the balcony, illuminating a small corner.

His room is right next to the living room, which means the balcony lights were on next door.

Is it Sang Qing?

Shi Ying got up and went to the balcony.

Sure enough, Sang Qing was seen wearing a light white dress, leaning on the railing, her head tilted slightly upwards.

Shi Ying also looked up at the sky. The night was not good tonight; it was dark and gloomy, with hardly any stars.

Then his gaze returned to Sang Qing.

The surroundings were quiet and dark, except for a single lamp that illuminated the balcony where Sang Qing was.

The female lay quietly on the railing, her face serene and peaceful, her calm black eyes seemingly holding a thousand thoughts.

For a moment, Shi Ying felt as if Sang Qing was standing here, yet also seemed to be independent of this world.

Was she thinking about the beastmen in the shelter again?

Sang Qing was perhaps thinking too seriously, which is why he hadn't been discovered even after watching for so long.

Shi Ying turned and went to the next room.

Hearing footsteps, Sang Qing turned around and leaned against the railing.

"Shiying," Sang Qing called softly.

Shi Ying also poured herself a glass of water, went to the balcony, and looked down at her, "What are you thinking about?"

“I want to go to the misty forest,” Sang Qing said frankly.

She is content with her peaceful and tranquil life now. Occasionally she has some troubles, but they are nothing serious.

The environment can change a person's mindset. She had almost forgotten that she could survive in a cannibalistic apocalypse.

Even without Madoka, the three years in the apocalypse were enough for her to grow.

She did not slack off in her training, and the skills she learned in her previous life amidst constant danger were further refined in this life.

The mental strength that had been impossible to upgrade in my previous life has now reached level A.

She has always been working hard, striving to live a good life and to become stronger.

Mental strength is currently in a phase of slow growth, as if it has reached a bottleneck.

Perhaps a little experience and stimulation are needed; hardship can be a great driving force for growth.

So, if you want to do it, then do it.

Shi Ying froze, staring intently at Sang Qing.

The female's long, light blue hair cascaded softly down her back, and her white dress accentuated her slender waist. She exuded a gentle aura, yet her eyes and tone held an unyielding determination.

Would you really go to such lengths to save those orcs?
What a kind little bodhisattva.

After a long silence, he sighed and sat down in the wicker chair. "If you want to go, I will go with you."

He said he would always stand behind her.

If they encounter danger, he can simply bring her out.

His riot value is currently zero, so he won't be affected.

And recently he felt that his control over his mental power had improved considerably.

Sang Qing smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling, her mood brightening. She couldn't help but reach out and ruffle Shi Ying's hair.

"So nice."

Before Shi Ying got angry, Sang Qing hurriedly said goodnight, put the cup on the small table, and ran back to her room.

Shi Ying reached out and touched her ruffled black hair, her face showing no anger.

His eyes, hidden in the shadows, were deep and dark.

...The next day, in Curry's office.

Curry, sitting behind the table, heard Sang Qing's purpose for coming, clasped his hands together, and said in a deep voice, "Comrade Sang Qing..."

Sang Qing knew Curry wanted to persuade her, so she preemptively said, "I know this is dangerous, but I have thought it through carefully."

“I am a therapist, so I won’t be affected by the pollution. I can also help them stabilize their mental state. In fact, compared to Manju and the others, I am the most suitable person to lead the team into the mist forest.”

"Moreover, therapists also need to grow. Only by growing can they better protect themselves and better treat the orcs in the institute."

“I never intended to stay in the containment facility forever. I’ve long planned to lead a team out to search for crystal cores, as you know, don’t you?”

Curry was speechless, but still felt it was inappropriate, and turned to Shi Ying: "You also agree to her taking the risk?"

Does Shi Ying think it matters whether he agrees or not?

Sang Qing may seem easy to talk to, but she's actually more stubborn than anyone else, and once she makes a decision, no one can stop her.

Didn't the fact that he fainted at the mere touch of a snake still manage to save all the orcs in the snake-lizard team?

Shi Ying said seriously, "I respect her decision."

Sang Qing nodded in agreement. "General Curry, you also said before I came in that you would respect my wishes."

"My current intention is to take people to the front lines."

"You must believe me, I will bring them back safely. Even if I can't, Shiying will protect my safety."

“You must be in pain watching your orcs perish all the time.”

General Curry is not an inhuman person; in fact, in her eyes, he is one of the few superiors with a kind heart.

Even though Admiral Curry didn't have much contact with the Orcs, he would personally lead the teams on many missions.

Many orcs have been here for four or five years.

She had developed feelings for the orcs in the institute after spending half a year with them, and even though Admiral Curry was their subordinate, he must have had a deep bond with them as well.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to poach me.

However, as the head of the shelter and the highest-ranking executive officer who always remained calm and composed, he could only watch the beastmen sacrifice themselves in order to prioritize the overall situation.

Having witnessed so much sacrifice, one may become numb, but that doesn't mean one is no longer in pain.

Curry looked at Sang Qing silently; the young girl had a daring and adventurous spirit that he lacked.

Moreover, he knew that what she said made sense.

In fact, females and males have a natural ability to pair up, and the effect of one plus one is far greater than two.

The presence of a healer in a team can double the team's strength and greatly reduce the casualty rate.

But females are too rare and too precious.

They were unwilling to go to the battlefield, so they could only fill the gap with the lives of more males.

Sang Qing's choice was unexpected, but it also filled him with immense admiration.

Although he wanted to choose the safer approach, he was helpless against Sang Qing's insistence, since the initiative had already been handed over to the young girl when they came in.

He had no choice but to agree.

“Therapist Sang.” Curry stood up from his seat with a solemn and dignified expression. “You inspire my respect. Our shelter is honored to have such a remarkable therapist.”

If Sang Qing weren't decades younger than him, he would have preferred to use honorifics.

"But bring more people with you, and please make sure you come back safely."

General Curry called Assistant Xiao and Zhuang Yifan to take Sang Qing to select manpower, leaving Shi Ying behind.

After Sang Qing left, Curry asked Shi Ying seriously, "What's your riot rating right now? Are you sure you can protect Sang Qing?"

Shi Ying remained calm: "Zero, staying in the Misty Forest for half a year is not a problem."

Curry: "..."

Even someone as composed as Admiral Curry couldn't help but catch his breath upon hearing this answer.

But he quickly regained his composure and waved his hand, feigning calmness: "Fine, you can go now."

As soon as everyone left, Curry immediately turned on his personal terminal and sent a message to Kus.

Bro, you're really tight-lipped!

You could practically feel Curry's gritted teeth even through the screen.
