"F-Fang Xifeng, please don't be like that," Yang Wei shouted as he dashed forward and stood in front of her.
"What can I do to obtain your assistance?" He asked.
A man must know when to admit defeat when the tide has changed.
He is no longer the person in charge of this situation since the dealer has been changed to Fang Xifeng.
Currently, Fang Xifeng holds the important chip that Yang Wei desperately needs.
Fang Xifeng merely flashed a cold glint at Yang Wei.
"Where did the almighty and cheeky Yang Wei go?" She teased.
"The almighty and cheeky Yang Wei had escaped a long time ago," Yang Wei swiftly replied.
"Replacing it is a gentle and lovely Yang Wei that desperately needs a beautiful woman like you to help."
Fang Xifeng couldn't help but feel her emotions improve for the better inside.
'Ahhh, this is a good feeling indeed. Being in the upper hand is always the best,' she thought.
After a few moments of pondering, Fang Xifeng took a small step forward and patted Yang Wei's shoulder.
She then whispered softly into her ears, "Since you want to know the method to escape this place… then it's very simple. Just do some tasks that I assigned to you, and if you can satisfy me, I shall tell you the information."
Yang Wei could only resign to his fate as he gave a slight nod.
After all, Fan Ping had already mentioned he had never been here before despite knowing Qian Xurong.
Thus, the only way he could somehow leave this area is through the knowledgeable Fang Xifeng.
"Fine, however, the task that you assign to me must be reasonable. Otherwise, I would just have to examine the area around myself to look for a method to escape here." Yang Wei said.
Fang Xifeng nodded her head.
"Very well then, we have a deal at our hands." Fang Xifeng replied.
Sometime later, Yang Wei followed Fang Xifeng back to the nest and into her personal office.
Luckily for Yang Wei though, the room in Fang Xifeng wasn't inlaid with multiple honeycombs that were filled in blood.
Instead, it looked like any kind of average-worker office that had a desk in the center and few chairs around it.
Yang Wei inspected the room around more closely and found it somewhat resembling how a modern office would look like.
"Did you design this room yourself?" Yang Wei asked out of curiosity.
"Yes or no, does it matter?" Fang Xifeng replied.
Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders.
He then walked toward a chair and sat down. "You could have just said you don't want to answer my simple question. No need to give me some philosophical reply."
Fang Xifeng chuckled as she went through a long pile of documents.
"The design may have been created by myself, but it was inspired from an ancient text." She said and handed a few documents to Yang Wei.
Yang Wei grabbed the documents from Fang Xifeng as he showed an intrigued look.
'An ancient text?' He thought.
What kind of ancient text could possibly induce such a modern setting?
However, Yang Wei didn't think much of it when he glanced over the context of the documents.
"What the hell?" Yang Wei exclaimed in shock.
"How could you possibly expect me to finish all of these tasks?" Yang Wei then shouted as he glared at Fang Xifeng,
Fang Xifeng shrugged her shoulders.
"What do you mean, Yang Wei? You specifically stated the task must be something within your capacity and everything in it is within your capabilities." She said with a gentle smile.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth.
"D-Devil… truly a menacing devil," Yang Wei cursed aloud as he clenched on the documents tightly.
Although the tasks seemed to be within his capability, each and every single one of them required him to exert his utmost effort.
Not to mention, the list in the task was extremely long, and Yang Wei doubted he would ever finish the task even if he were given a year.
After all, some of those in the list required him to gather an extremely rare herb that would only grow at a certain time period.
"This is near impossible to do. Just this Ice Vinewood takes at least 5 years to form, and it could only be found in the coldest environment." Yang Wei said as he pointed at the document for her to see.
"Not my problem, Yang Wei." Fang Xifeng replied.
"I have already handed out the task for you to do, and it's your problem now since you're the one complaining about being unable to complete it," she added.
A few minutes later, Yang Wei could only heave a soft sigh at the task to do.
Without speaking any more nonsense, Yang Wei stood up and turned around to leave the office.
Glancing at his back, Fang Xifeng couldn't help but laugh silently in her heart.
'Haha, finally. Did you think a woman is easy to be bullied and teased? There's always a price to pay for such action.'
Sometime later, Fang Xifeng decided to step away from her office to inform Qian Xurong about Yang Wei's assistance.
With a swooshing sound, Fang Xifeng appeared in a somewhat luxurious room.
There were multiple shelves that contained some sort of precious item on the side. A glamorous lighting piece of furniture was placed on the ceiling, but Fang Xifeng paid no mind to any of the luxury items.
Instead, her focus was placed on a large light-blue bed where Qian Xurong was currently laying on with the box-looking item in her embrace.
Fang Xifeng knelt down on one knee as she greeted Qian Xurong.
"Second-in-command Fang Xifeng greets her majesty," Fang Xifeng said.
A few seconds later, Qian Xurong responds in a grumpy voice.
"This better be important, Fang Xifeng. Otherwise, you're going to feel my wrath for disturbing my moment."
Fang Xifeng nodded her head as she proceeded to explain the situation of Yang Wei to her.
Qian Xurong was dumbfounded when Fang Xifeng finished her story.
"Unbelievable… What is that Fan Ping thinking?" She muttered in disbelief.
