Chapter 682: Hiding Himself

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Elder Qiao smiled. You dont have to be so polite. Were all in the same position. Theres no distinction between superiors and subordinates at all.

Thats what you say, but our team has always strictly adhered to the level system.

The fake smile remained on Elder Hus face. No matter what, youve been in the group longer than the four of us, so in private, we all think that youre the First Elder.

Elder Qiao waved his hand to stop the other party from continuing. Because he knew that if a person always treated him with respect, he would not be able to show his true self and would not be able to get the outcome he wanted.

Status has never been important. Everyone is dedicated to contributing to the regiment. Its the same for tea leaves. Theres nothing to be picky about. Ill drink the good and the rotten. Elder Qiao immediately stopped this topic and changed the topic. I wonder if the person who placed the tea leaves is a good person or a bad person?

As soon as these words were spoken, Elder Hu, who was holding a teacup and preparing to drink tea, was stunned. His hand, which had stopped in midair, trembled unconsciously and even spilled the water in the cup. What do you mean by that?

Elder Hu knew that the other party had ill intentions. In order not to discover anything wrong, he continued what he was doing and tried his best to look normal. However, all of this was just a trick to deceive himself.

How could Elder Qiao not guess the meaning of such an obvious change?

Of course, 1 mean it literally. Elder Qiao also picked up the teacup in front of him and tasted it carefully as if nothing had happened. Cant a smart person like Elder Hu guess why I came to look for you today?

Forgive me for being stupid. I really dont understand what you mean. Since he had already begun to play dumb, he definitely could not give up halfway. If I did anything wrong or Young Master Ye misunderstood me, please give me some pointers.

In that case, Ill make things clear for you. Elder Qiao decided not to continue wasting time with him and immediately made things clear. I know that Young Master Yes decision to ask all of us to leave Country H previously caused the dissatisfaction of the four elders, but you dont know that he has his own reasons for doing this.

Now that youve said it so clearly, theres no need for me to hold it in anymore, Elder Hu said.

Elder Qiao nodded. No problem. Elder Hu, feel free to say whatever complaints you have in your heart. Todays conversation only represents the two of us. After leaving this room, I wont mention it to a third person.

Young Master Ye left the team for a while. Before he came back, he said that he wanted everyone to go to an unfamiliar city. Who would be willing to do that?

Elder Hu frowned slightly, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction. Young Master Ye doesnt have many relatives in Country H, but were different. Our home is here.

But didnt Young Master Ye promise everyone that he could bring anyone along?

Elder Qiao asked, As long as youre willing, be it family or friends, you can all leave this place and live in a new environment.

Why? Elder Hu widened his eyes and asked him in confusion, Why are we suddenly moving to an unfamiliar place when were living well here? If it were you, would you be willing?

He did not stop what he was saying. Before Elder Qiao could answer, he smiled again. Besides, Young Master Ye should have told us in advance about such a big matter so that we can be mentally prepared. We can discuss it together before making a decision. He shouldnt make this decision alone and make a choice on behalf of all of us..
