Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

"Were those Zuo-gege and Mayumi-nee just walking by?"

minutes ago.

The bunny girl, holding cards in her hand, addressed the other three.

Lena snorted and said, "It's them!"

Lu Zheng had his back to the door and couldn't see anyone. He turned around and glanced at them, then said, "Zuo Chang and Zhen Gong? Are they going out?"

The long-haired, effeminate man chuckled, "I'm afraid not! I saw Zuo Chang carrying a basin; he's probably going to Yaotai Zhen Gong's room to take a bath, since there's no water in his room. Yaotai Zhen Gong is really generous, inviting a man to bathe in her room?"

Lu Zheng frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

The long-haired man continued, "Tsk tsk, could it really be as Lena said, that Yaotai Zhenyu and Zuo Chang have an unspeakable relationship?!"

The bunny girl cupped her face, looking shy: "Mayumi-nee...you're so bold."

Lena said, "Captain, we have no right to interfere in the vice-captain's private affairs. However... we still need to be careful! You've given the vice-captain too much authority. If she really uses her position for personal gain, the consequences could be unimaginable."

"No, I trust Mayumi."

Lu Zheng smiled, forcing himself to ignore it.

only……

What is the cause of this bitterness in my heart?

The thought of what might happen in Mayumi's room made him uneasy, and he didn't even want to play cards anymore!

After a moment's hesitation, he still couldn't calm himself down.

He put down his cards and said, "You guys play first."

The bunny girl looked up: "Brother Deer, where are you going?"

Lu Zheng avoided answering, only saying, "I didn't go anywhere... I... I'll go out and take a look."

He slowly got up and walked towards the door.

Whether Chapter 85 is valid or not depends on whether Zuo Chang is powerful enough.

The moment Lu Zheng left the room, the smiles on the other three people vanished, and they lost all interest in playing cards; the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

The lively scene from before only occurred when Lu Zheng was present.

He is the key figure in this team.

Without him, everyone's true colors were revealed.

The long-haired man sneered, stood up, and said, "I really hope Zuo Chang steps up his game and takes Yaotai Zhengong! That snobbish bitch—I've been annoyed with her for a long time!"

The bunny girl chuckled and said, "Brother Lion, the way you turn from love to hate is so funny."

Lena couldn't help but chuckle: "To be honest, it's really interesting. Lion, when you boldly confessed your love back then, did you ever imagine that Yaotai Mayumi would not only reject your advances but also point her finger at you and berate you for a quarter of an hour? What did she say back then? 'A spineless dog dares to covet my beauty'?"

Bang!

The long-haired man slammed his fist on the table, his anger rising as he recalled the humiliation he had suffered.

The bunny girl had abandoned her docile image; she leaned back in her chair with a rather cold expression.

Lena sat down and asked, "Rabbit, what's the background of this Zuo Chang? He seems to really admire Yaotai Zhen Gong."

"Tsk, probably just a simp. I don't think he has any relationship with Yaotai Zhen Gong. Yaotai Zhen Gong is pretty strong and good-looking, so she probably wouldn't be interested in that Zuo Chang."

"..."

What does it mean to have decent skills?

What does it mean to be "good-looking"?

Lena thought to herself, "Where does this little bitch get the confidence to say that Yaotai Mayumi is 'good-looking'? Even though I hate her, I have to admit that she's a genuine beauty. If Yaotai Mayumi weren't so arrogant and always looking down on people, how could I possibly cooperate with you?"

Of course, I wouldn't say these words out loud.

Lena was a little worried and said, "The captain seems to really want Zuo Chang... Zuo Chang strongly supports Yaotai Zhen Gong, will that affect our plans?"

The bunny girl shook her head: "Yaotai Zhenyu will definitely leave, it's just a matter of time. She's too proud and can't stand being wronged. As long as we keep ostracizing her and making things difficult for her, she will definitely leave—I can assure you of that."

Continuous...exclusion.

It's harsh, but it's the truth.

Lu Zheng is too gentle, so gentle that he has lost his own opinions and sense of self, becoming a fence-sitter who only knows how to be a peacemaker.

When disagreements and disputes arise within the team, instead of seeking out the root cause of the problem and resolving it appropriately and decisively, he adheres to the principle that everyone should be happy and tries to cover it up.

In his view, Mayumi should be tolerant and responsible.

Because Mayumi is strong and is the vice-captain, while Bunny Girl is weak and has only just joined the team.

If he hadn't suddenly realized this, then...

Lena thought the bunny girl's judgment was correct.

Looking at the bunny girl, she thought to herself, "Getting rid of Yaotai Zhen Gong is the best outcome. Lu Zheng will definitely return to 1024. Without Yaotai Zhen Gong, I might have a chance to be noticed by him!"

The lion suddenly turned his head and asked, "Does Zuo Chang really have the ability? He seems very calm and composed, as if he is extremely confident... If he performs well and fully lives up to those three 'Ancient Battlefield Privileges,' our situation will become very awkward."

Yes.

If Zuo Chang's skills are truly exceptional, and he performs outstandingly, even leading the Deer at Dawn to achieve the first kill in the dungeon, then Yaotai Zhen Gong's decision will be a "wise decision," not "abuse of power for personal gain."

She has a keen eye for talent, and with just three privileges, she acquired a powerful assistant, earning great praise for Deer Morning!

At that time, all of their group's accusations against Yaotai Mayumi will become a joke.

The three of them will also become complete clowns.

The bunny girl was unsure and said, "He shouldn't be that powerful, right? He's only at the fourth realm."

The others remained silent, and the conversation ended abruptly.

the other side.

Lu Zheng stood in front of Zhen Gong's door, hesitating whether to knock.

should……

On what grounds should we knock on this door?

His relationship with Mayumi was no different from that of the others. They were all members of an adventure party, partners who adventured together and risked their lives for each other, nothing more.

To say there are differences—

That is, the true bow never oversteps its bounds.

Unlike Lena, she didn't flaunt her revealing clothes in front of him, and occasionally when she bent over, you could even see her rather sexy underwear.

Unlike the bunny girl, she wasn't so averse to physical contact, and would often lean in unexpectedly to feel each other's body temperature.

Apart from that, there should be no difference.

but……

The thought of Mayumi's red lips being kissed, and the hazy and intense look in her bright and sharp eyes that he had never seen before, made him feel irritable!

No. We can't just sit idly by.

Although Mayumi always appears very mature, she is actually a very pure person.

Zuo Chang doesn't seem like a bad person, but you can't judge a book by its cover. What if he is?

As the regimental commander, he had to take responsibility!

"Dong dong!"

Lu Zheng raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Makoto, are you in there?"

no respond.

Lu Zheng waited a moment, then knocked on the door again: "Really—"

click!

The door is open!

Zuo Chang stood behind the door, looking at Lu Zheng who had a stunned expression: "Commander Lu, is something the matter?"

"Uh."

Nothing's wrong.

Lu Zheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Where is Mayumi? I want to check with her to confirm tomorrow's action plan."

Zuo Chang said, "Oh, I'm afraid it's not possible now, she's taking a shower."

"?!"

They're already taking a shower!

Lu Zheng's eyes suddenly sharpened: "Zuo Chang, what are you doing in Zhen Gong's room?"

Zuo Chang said with a righteous expression, "I'm here to take a shower; there's no water in my room."

Lu Zheng was taken aback.

"Commander Lu, you've arrived?"

In the silence, another person emerged from the room; it was Feng Gu.

Feng Gu smiled slightly and said, "We're going to play cards later, do you want to play?"

Upon seeing Feng Gu, Lu Zheng's tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed.

original……

Not just Mayumi and Zuo Chang.

The turmoil in his heart subsided, and the inexplicable anxiety vanished without a trace. Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Well... I'm playing cards with Xiao Tu and the others right now, so I have to go back."

Feng Gu exclaimed in surprise, "Why don't you call Miss Mayumi when you're playing cards?"

Lu Zheng was covered in sweat!

He stammered, then could only say, "Well... Mayumi has a cold personality and doesn't get along with the others in the group, so..."
