Sentry: The guide who's getting extra help is very busy today.

"Ding-dong." Guan Zhou sent a message to Ming Ye.

[Guan Zhou]: Chairman Mingye, we encountered a pollutant attack on our way back. Heze sacrificed himself to protect me. Do you have any recommendations for sentinels?

Upon seeing this message, Mingye guessed that Guan Zhou had seen his chat history with Heze.

Idiot, don't you know to delete each one as you read it?

[Mingye]: I don't know Commander Guan Zhou's abilities, so I can't recommend him.

[Guan Zhou]: Still pretending? Just like Shu Zao said, you are not trustworthy.

"You're still too green to pull this on me, Guan Zhou." Mingye sent a screenshot of the chat history to Shuzao.

After thinking for a few seconds, I also sent the recorded phone call.

When Shu Zao, sitting in the cabin, received the message, her expression was priceless.

"I've learned something new."

She wanted to become stronger, but she was unreliable; her actions in the mid-game were truly dirty.

It was Guan Zhou who didn't want to get along with her. He could have quietly tested her, but instead he chose to expose her.

What are their true intentions?

Guan Zhou underestimated the bond between her and Mingye. Although she disliked him, she was certain that they would not have a major conflict in the current situation.

[Shuzao]: I've learned a lot.

[Mingye]: What did you guys talk about? Give me a hint, and I'll consider it a tip for my hard work.

[Shu Zao]: She wants the circle that I put within the jurisdiction of Yuri Ruda White Tower.

She released a recording of her conversation with Guan Zhou; these days, being prepared to record conversations is basic practice.

You can't always rely on sentinels and guides who can read memories when something happens; they know too much, and you wouldn't trust them anyway.

[Shuzao]: She knows a lot of things that we don't.

[Mingye]: How about we cooperate? This time I won't hold back.

Let's plot against Guan Zhou together!

She told Guan Zhou not to trust himself too much, but not trusting him too much and not being trustworthy are two different things.

Shu Zao showed great kindness, but was stabbed in the back, causing a feud between them. She took the opportunity to step back and, at the right moment, "test the waters" of Guan Zhou to obtain the information she wanted.

[Shuzao]: It was a pleasure working with you.

"Shuzao, Mingye will set a trap for you. I suspect he wants you to fight against Guan Zhou." Xingyao didn't want her to cooperate with Mingye; she would be angry if she was schemed against.

Getting angry is bad for your health.

"Don't worry, let him fight Guan Zhou first. Guan Zhou has too many secrets, some of them will eventually leak out."

If she slows down, Mingye's speed will inevitably increase.

"Shu Zao is amazing."

"I know I'm good, Etheris, don't pounce on me." This guy is really good at finding opportunities.

"Ding-dong."

"A message is coming in, where are you headed?!"

Yuanli pulled Etheris back to her seat, holding her by the neck.

"Yuanli, Etheris rolled her eyes. Loosen your grip a bit," Zhoumiao said, watching Etheris's condition. "She's recovered. You can continue."

Etheris: Are you a hidden devil?

He reached out to Xingyao for help, and Xingyao said, "You're too gentle, I want to see your eyes roll."

Etheris: ...You've asked the wrong sentinel, Fuyuan, come save me!

Shuzaodian opens the light screen early.

[Guan Zhou]: Speaker Mingye sent me a message.

[Shu Zao]: ? ? ? Did he make things difficult for me?

[Guan Zhou]: Hmm.

[Shuzao]: What did you say?

After sending the screenshot to Mingye, Shuzao quickly sent over a screen recording.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be something completely different from what Guan Zhou was saying; Mingye was actually flattering Guan Zhou.

[Mingye]: Don't believe her. I won't benefit from cooperating with both sides. She has the advantage. We can't fall apart.

Fortunately, Shu Zao stood by his side.

Guan Zhou is quite adept at playing mind games.

[Shu Zao]: Of course I believe Chairman Mingye.

After returning to Mingye, she went back to Guanzhou, keeping herself extremely busy.

"Xingyao, reply to me, I'm going to grab a snack." Her screen was magnified, and the sentries kept watching her reply.

"it is good."

Upon reaching the White Pagoda, a cooperation agreement was reached, but to Shu Zao, it was all a sham.

She talked with the sentries for a while, played with the children for an hour, and then went to the laboratory to observe the progress of the experiment.

The later stages of the experiment took too long, and sometimes she couldn't wait, so she asked Boyou to speed up the process.

After leaving the lab, Shu Zao went to the training room and trained there for two hours before returning to the 88th floor.

Soaking in the bathtub, her tense nerves relaxed, and she sent a message to Fuyuan.

[Shuzao]: Fuyuan, are you asleep?

She received Fu Yuan's message after she had finished showering.

[Fu Yuan]: I haven't slept yet. I'm training and only just now looking at the screen. Sorry for replying to my message so late.

Fu Yuan wiped her sweat with a towel. She had been busy taking care of her baby the past few days and hadn't been to the training room.

[Shuzao]: Do you still have energy?

[Fu Yuan]: Yes, where does Shu Zao want me to go?

[Shuzao]: Come to my room, I'll sleep with you.

Fu Yuan replied to her a few seconds later.

[Fu Yuan]: Wait a few minutes!

He strode out of the training room.

Xingyao and the other two assumed that Etheris, who was always a big mouth, would tell Fuyuan, so they didn't tell Fuyuan.

But when Etheris tried to chat with Fuyuan, Fuyuan went to the training room.

[Shuzao]: No rush, I've prepared the bath water for you. Come directly to my room to shower when you get back.

The elevator on the 88th floor opened, and he quickly replied to Shu Zao's message.

【扶愿】：to act.

He went back to his own room first, grabbed some "equipment," and then entered Shuzao's room.

"The bathwater is ready." Shu Zao lay on the bed, propping her chin up with her hands and sticking her legs up.

"Okay, wait for me."

"I'm waiting for you, stop looking and go inside to shower." She was dressed in a way that was both innocent and sexy, just the way he liked her the most.

The bathroom door opened, and Shuzao looked up to see the sentry standing before her.

Her lips pressed down, conveying a sense of dominance and unyielding resistance.

Her return kiss was equally passionate and intense, filled with unwavering affection.

The light was on; he didn't have time to turn it off, and she didn't have a free hand to do so.

The skirt fell to the ground, and the bathrobe also landed nearby.

The sounds of water splashing and panting were especially noticeable in the space where there were no sentries or guides speaking.

After being hungry for a long time, Fu Yuan was full of energy all night.

In the early morning, Fu Yuan held her tightly: "Shu Zao, do you want to rest?"

"No need." She didn't say he couldn't; he didn't seem like he couldn't.

"Then let's continue."

He made his vows with the stars and Elisen, and he persevered until the very last day.

Before officially resting, Shu turned off the lights, crawled into bed, hugged Fuyuan, and closed her eyes.

The lights being on disturb my rest.

Fu Yuan opened the bedroom door, her face full of satisfaction.

"Fuyuan, I wish I could take your place." Etheris rested her head on the table, her hands hanging limply at her sides.

"It will all come in its turn, and the result will be what you want most." It's taking longer than ever before.

It's a bit strenuous.

Are you sure?

"You should take better care of yourself, so you don't fall behind at crucial moments."
