"What?!" Ying Qin Guan was shocked. He didn't know about Cao Cailan's matter, and Jiu Yi rarely mentioned it, so he didn't know about it until now. "You fucking have a girlfriend."

Jiu Yi wasn't embarrassed at all and replied, "I guess so. Although we haven't officially confirmed our relationship, it's basically an implicit agreement, so... I really can't go on it."

"Then I'll start over!"

Ying Qin Guan grabbed his gun and was about to fire another shot, but Jiu Yi stopped him again.

"Be careful!" Jiu Yi gripped the gun, not giving Ying Qin Guan a chance to pull the trigger. He shouted, "What if we randomly get a rare item? Wouldn't we be done for on the spot? I've already spent money to buy it for you. It's just being rejected, can't we treat it as a game? It's not a big deal!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Ying Qin Guan said angrily, "I've pursued many people, and as long as I tell them I'm Ying Qin Guan, no one has ever rejected me."

Having just run here, still out of breath and unaware of what had happened, Shenxin held up the small blackboard.

"This looks like Ji Li's..."

Ying Qin Guan glared at him.

"It's mine now!"

Shen Xin dared not speak out in anger, and even held a grudge against Zhao Yunxian, who actually provided Ying Qin Guan with material to show off.

"Hurry up and go to Yingqin Pass! Ji Li has told everyone! You say they won't refuse you? I don't believe you unless you prove it to me! Hurry up and go!"

"No way! It would be so awful to be rejected... I mean! I'm not the kind of playboy who confesses his feelings to just anyone!"

In order to avoid being harassed by Jiu Yi, Ying Qin Guan decisively feinted past him and fired another shot.

Seeing this, Jiu Yi knew there was no hope. Ying Qin Guan abandoned the easy task and instead chose a dreaded mission of unknown difficulty...

He sighed and was about to leave with his note to complete his mission when Ying Qin Guan suddenly pressed his hand on his shoulder, as if it were made of steel, making it impossible for Jiu Yi to move.

"Hey... what are you doing?" Jiu Yi felt a chill run down his spine. "What card did you draw?"

"Jiuyi...you said you have a girlfriend, but you haven't officially started dating yet?"

Ying Qin Guan, with a fake smile on his face, handed his card to Jiu Yi.

"I think today is a great day, and there's a bouquet of roses too, so why don't you go up there?"

Jiu also looked at the note.

"A bouquet of roses used for a confession, and which ultimately led to a successful confession."

Jiu Yi's features scrunched up, ultimately forming an expression that was extremely difficult to describe.

"Grass..?"

"Why does this production team go through all this trouble..."

"Don't worry about whether they're going to do a full-scale event or not." Ying Qin Guan breathed a sigh of relief. Now the pressure was on Jiu Yi. "Just tell me, are you going or not?"

"I...I'm not going either!" Jiu Yi said, somewhat annoyed. "These two are not even in the same difficulty, and to confess over something like this, don't you think it's too casual? I, Jiu Yi, am not a casual person."

Ying Qin Guan said in a deep voice, "Jiu Yi, fifty years have passed, and you are old and frail. You have not been able to board the Time-Space Killer, nor have you been able to use the card, nor do you have a single voice card. Do you remember, fifty years ago, when you had the strongest teammates in history, and a voice card was right in front of you? You must consider whether this might be the only opportunity you have in your life."

"This isn't about a casual confession, but rather, taking this opportunity to say everything you want to say, and achieving success in both love and career. This opportunity is right in front of you, do you want to seize it?"

Chapter Nine: Don't Trust the Toilet Paper Rolls

"Humph.."

It took a full two hours for Ying Qin Guan to reach the second point.

Jiu Yi was fooled by him and actually went in the end. When Ying Qin Guan saw that he was in such a state, it would be really bad if he didn't finish the whole race. So he didn't give up and chose to continue the race. Jiu Yi gave him directions along the way. The two hours were mainly spent looking for Cao Cailan, and he didn't get lost much.

When Ying Qinguan reached the second node, the crew members who were waiting there smiled and said, "Mr. Ying, you are the sixth person to reach the second node. One person has already reached the third node. Please keep up the good work."

Hearing what the other party said, Ying Qin felt a lot more pressure.

The competition is only eight hours long, and a quarter of the time has already passed. However, half the participants haven't even made it past the first stage. It seems likely that a large portion of them will get zero points, which is very disadvantageous for Ying Qin's group. If it were simpler, they could even get by with low scores; their group has the highest points, and if they could get those low scores, they would still be number one. But now...

Ying Qin Guan felt considerable pressure. The production team had really put in a lot of effort to keep the competition from losing its suspense. He quickly fired a shot and picked up the note.

The crew member who had been holding out his hand lowered it; what he was holding was a bullet.

Actually, starting from the second node, there is only one bullet in the gun. If you miss with the first shot, you not only have to spend some points to invalidate the original note, but you also have to spend some points to buy another bullet.

This rule, not explicitly announced, was designed to trap the participants, leaving them to grapple with whether to withdraw or continue... As a result, these six individuals were all incredibly skilled marksmen, and she couldn't sell any of her bullets, not even getting a chance to promote them. Although she wouldn't get a penny from selling the bullets, who wouldn't want more screen time?

But... it's okay.

The production crew observed Ying Qin Guan's expression, knowing that if he was not satisfied with the note, they would still have a chance to speak.

Upon seeing the note, Ying Qin Guan was overjoyed, practically beaming with delight.

Without a doubt, Ying Qin Guan drew a very auspicious lot, the words on which were 'a souvenir with a distinct foreign style'.

Although the competition was called a "Borrowed Object Race," the organizers still gave each person ten pounds as expenses during the competition. After all, not everything can be caught, and sometimes money is indeed required.

Ten pounds, it's not hard to buy a souvenir!

Qiyao has a place that specializes in selling all sorts of strange souvenirs. And coincidentally, I mentioned these things to Ying Qin Guan when I was chatting with him before!

This gave Ying Qinguan a strange sense of divine intervention, as if he were participating in a quiz competition where every question asked by the host was something he had recently experienced.

The next problem is how to find the shop. Ying Qin Guan knows the address... but he can't use transportation. In other words, he can't take a taxi; just knowing the address might not be enough for him. But if he's willing to spend a little time, it certainly won't be a problem.

Ying Qin Guan took a step forward... At the same time, he felt a slight pain in his stomach.

"That steamed bun...something's not right!"

The Nephalem ran slower and slower until he finally stopped when he saw a public toilet by the roadside.

He has a remarkable philosophical understanding.

In a person's life, there are some things that cannot be missed. Once you miss them, you can never get them back, and you will weep bitterly and regret it for countless nights to come. Moreover, what you want now may not be what you want later. If you don't get it now, then all of this is meaningless. Just like the toys you liked as a child, you may not like them when you grow up. It is meaningless to get what you wanted as a child when you grow up.

Therefore, when you want to do something, it's best not to worry too much.

In other words...

He couldn't resist the spiciness!

Nephalem struggled to walk into the toilet, his face extremely pale. The moment he squatted down, he felt a sense of liberation, a wonderful feeling of relief after a long drought. It was something he could not share with others.

"I can't waste too much time here." Nephalem was extremely competitive, and as the only one to reach the third node, he naturally wanted to maintain his advantage. After estimating that he wouldn't be able to rush any further, he reached for the hanging paper tube beside him. As a legendary agent, his observation skills were meticulous, and he would never put himself in danger, no matter the time or place. So even though the situation had been so critical just now, he still observed the paper tube, saw a piece of paper hanging out, and only after confirming that there was paper inside did he go in.

This is already an extreme level of awareness against ganks, since whether there's toilet paper in a public restroom is entirely up to fate.

But...the weather is unpredictable.

When Nephalem's hand touched the paper, his face quickly turned a deep purplish-red.

The Nephalem exerted a little force, gave a gentle pull, and then... it was over.

Yes.

The small piece of paper he saw when he came in was already the last piece of paper in the tube.

this..!

What a blatant scam! It's like going to the supermarket and getting a large, semi-transparent bag of snacks that looks like it's full of stuff, only to find when you get home that the opaque parts of the packaging are completely empty—what you saw was all there was!

But even if they encountered such a thing, they would only be unable to eat more, unlike the Nephalem, who are now facing an unprecedented and terrible crisis.

Not enough! No matter how you look at it, this little bit of paper is not enough! If you try to fold it in half and then in half again, your fingers might encounter an enemy that no human can match or fight against!

As the saying goes, "A mop with filth is a fighting god among men," this thing's power is unmatched!

The Nephalem panicked.

Even when he was about to graduate and the Royal Academy was in such chaos, Nephalem had never been as panicked as he was now!

"hateful..!"

The Nephalem quickly surveyed its surroundings, but it was eerily quiet and deserted. It couldn't help but curse the Seven Luminaries: "Damn it, why build so many public toilets? It's like everyone has the freedom to poop! Can't they learn from the Holy Alliance? Five hundred people share one stall! That way, I'm guaranteed to be saved! Even if I don't want to come out, I'll be dragged out!"

"What should we do... Should we shout for help? It's embarrassing, but as long as we win, losing face isn't a big deal. The problem is, are there people outside? Listen carefully..."

The Nephalem activated his cultivation technique, greatly enhancing his hearing. He actually heard hurried footsteps approaching, growing louder as they grew. Upon hearing this, the Nephalem was overjoyed and was about to speak, saying, "Brave warrior, please wait..."

However, it was too late. The other party was incredibly fast, entering, closing, taking off their pants, and defecating all in one smooth motion. By the time the Nephalem finished speaking, the other party had already resolved their predicament and let out a long sigh of relief.

Nephalem felt that the voice sounded somewhat familiar.

The other party also realized this.

"Huh...that voice, are you a Nephalem?"

"Haha..." Upon hearing this voice, Nephalem knew it was pointless to conceal it any longer, so he chuckled awkwardly and said, "What a coincidence, Ying Qin Pass..."

Chapter Ten: Lend Me Your Power!

Indeed, the person who arrived was Ying Qin Guan.

As a fellow victim of Ah He Baozi, even someone as powerful as Ying Qin Guan couldn't escape this fate in the daily episodes and had to suffer the humiliation. However, his condition was clearly much better than that of the Nephalem. When the Nephalem arrived, it was already struggling to walk, while Ying Qin Guan was still able to walk normally.

Ying Qin Guan said in a deep voice, "That steamed bun..."

The Nephalem replied with difficulty, "Theoretically, there shouldn't be any problem. I didn't find any problematic ingredients in it..."

—As a legendary agent, Nephalem is intimately familiar with all kinds of drugs, both common and uncommon, and the smells of their chemical components. He's even trained in the corresponding methods of cultivation. It's not entirely impossible to poison someone without their knowledge. However, this particular poison is unlikely to be used in such a trivial situation; it would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Therefore…

"So what... happened to us?"

".."

Silence, silence is today's public toilet.

After a moment of silence, Nephalem suddenly said, "We're just going to the toilet normally, isn't it? It's a normal thing for people to go to the toilet."

"To be honest, that's true."

"I'm fine, how about you?"

"I'm fine too."

"Haha, that's all over now... But speaking of which, you know what? Yingqin Pass, this toilet is actually quite famous."

"Oh?" Ying Qin Guan's voice became curious. "How so?"

"The toilet paper in this restroom is random. Apparently, the suppliers are all different. If you're lucky, they might give you the kind of extra soft paper that's for babies. If you're unlucky, I've heard that some people have touched sandpaper."
