When Shen Mo came back, Bai Youwei was napping.

He unconsciously lightened his footsteps, undid his coat, and slowly lay down beside her.

The bed dipped on one side, Bai Youwei, sensing his presence, cuddled closer with eyes closed, and then frowned slightly, muttering, “Smoking?”

Shen Mo couldn’t help but laugh, “I deliberately stayed outside a bit longer, you can still smell it on me?”

“Wait,” Bai Youwei got up, draped a blanket over herself, and started rummaging through the room.

Shen Mo asked her, “What are you looking for?”

...

“I’m looking for the mint leaves I dried before…”

Bai Youwei brought out a glass jar from a drawer with only two or three dried mint leaves left inside; she looked disappointed, “Ah… there’s only a little bit left.”

Shen Mo came over to put down the glass jar, “It’s cold outside, don’t catch a chill.”

He carried Bai Youwei back into the bed and then stuffed something into her hand.

Bai Youwei felt it, picked it up to look, and it was a mint candy. She couldn’t help but laugh, squinting her eyes as she asked him, “Where did this come from?”

“I ran into Yan Qingwen while I was smoking, he gave it to me.” Shen Mo took the candy from her hand, tearing the outer wrapping.

Bai Youwei lifted her head, her lips puckering up, “Give me half~”

“Not going to sleep anymore?” Shen Mo broke off half and she snatched it with her mouth, “This thing is quite invigorating.”

“If someone is truly sleepy, not even thunder would wake them, what’s a mint candy then~” Bai Youwei didn’t care, with the candy in her mouth and a grin, “Why would Yan Qingwen have the habit of carrying candy around? Must be Zhu Shu who gave it to him, Zhu Shu likes these little things, tea, coffee, mint candies… Oh right, what did you two talk about?”

“We talked about matters in the game.” Shen Mo, propped up on the bed, gently patted Bai Youwei’s back while chatting with her, “…Next battle, Yan Qingwen doesn’t have enough citizens, so he probably will surrender.”

“Surrender?” Bai Youwei looked stunned, “But if the King surrenders, he becomes a commoner, and the King’s former commoners would switch over to become the others’.”

“I guess he will demote Su Man and the others to commoners beforehand because he said he doesn’t want to risk his companions anymore.” Shen Mo pinched Bai Youwei’s cheek as he spoke, “Aren’t you the same? You chose Battle 1 because you didn’t want to drag everyone into it, right?”

Bai Youwei pouted, her voice coquettishly soft, “That’s because I was afraid you guys would hold me back, okay? Injured and disabled, no telling when you’ll be fully healed!”

“And what about me?” Shen Mo lifted her up a bit and asked with a smile, “My King, I am not injured, may I join you in battle?”

Bai Youwei’s eyes twirled, teasingly, “You say you’re not injured and that’s it? ~I, the King, must personally inspect!”

“How will you inspect?” Shen Mo asked with a smile.

Bai Youwei’s hand moved lower, poking at someone’s abdominals, glaring at him with suggestion.

Shen Mo stroked her head, saying, “It seems you really don’t want to sleep anymore.”

…

The next day, Chu Huaijin called a meeting, requesting the presence of the King and important subjects.

Bai Youwei and Shen Mo arrived in the conference room only to discover Fu Miaoxue was up to her tricks again; she wanted to share information about the maze but didn’t wish to owe anyone favors, so she used Chu Huaijin as a front.

Chu Huaijin wouldn’t refuse anything beneficial to the King’s participation in battle.

Moreover, everyone lived in the Headquarters Building; it’s hard to say no when you are eating from someone else’s hand, so naturally, they were willing to cooperate, as long as it did not affect their own interests.

Now, all three Kings from the base had arrived.

Fu Miaoxue had three subjects, Du Lai, Chen Hui, and Leonid.

Yan Qingwen came with Zhu Shu, Su Man, and Lu Yuwen.

Bai Youwei only had Shen Mo and Pan Xiaoxin by her side.

Including Chu Huaijin, twelve people sat in the conference room.

Chu Huaijin said, “Thinking long-term, sharing maze information is very necessary and beneficial for everyone to varying degrees, so I arranged for us all to gather here today, sit down, and have a good talk. I’m here to witness, and I hope that we can all… speak freely.”
