I Told You To Manage The Reserve Unit For Me Instead Of Turning It Into A Special Troop

Chapter 1469: Chapter 822: Hard to Decline the Gracious Invitation_2

Baldy is really flattering Crescent by saying that.

The voice carried a slight tremble.

He was all earnest and serious.

But just at this moment, Crescent slightly narrowed his eyes.

“Who said we’re friends? I was being serious with you just then. When did I ever joke around with you here?”

“And have you forgotten how ugly the words you just said were? It hasn’t been that long, have you already forgotten what symptoms you have?”

“If you do have symptoms, you could tell me, and I could treat you for them. After all, I have plenty of medicines.”

In fact, as soon as Crescent spoke these words, he was already slapping Baldy and Brother Shan in the face.

He showed no mercy, slapping their faces so hard it hurt.

But Crescent wasn’t finished speaking and then joked again.

“If you’re really sick, I could fight poison with poison and feed you some poison pills. Maybe they would actually work for you.”

“Don’t just glare at me here. Actions speak louder than words. Go back and take a few poison pills now. I’m sure they’ll work quickly.”

“And don’t keep staring at me. I’m going to get the poison for you. Anyway, I mean what I say.”

Suddenly, with these words, Crescent really wanted to go back and get the poison, so he turned around immediately.

But before he had taken more than a few steps, Baldy grabbed his legs, trapping Crescent completely.

But fury began to climb in his heart.

His eyes gradually became colder, his whole being enveloped in unprecedented disdain.

Crescent tried to kick Baldy away, kicking him several times.

Baldy still did not let go, and even though he felt the pain, he held onto Crescent’s legs tightly.

His voice was trembling like never before.

“Crescent, please, I’m begging you here, give us the antidote quickly. We were just joking with you.”

“If those words affected you, I can apologize here, and I hope they don’t affect you—if you’re really mad at me.”

“You can hit me all you want. I won’t fight back. Just give me a glimmer of hope.”

Baldy had become extremely humble, but this was indeed a first-time sight.

This was the first time they’d seen Baldy like this, even Brother Shan showed a bit of astonishment.

The surrounding audience also had a shocked expression, finding the scene before them unimaginable.

But they didn’t dare to discuss it, after all, it’s quite hurtful to one’s pride.

So they didn’t even intend to speak.

Silence had already spread among them.

But Baldy’s brows were still tightly knit, his face growing grimmer by the moment.

After a good while, fear finally climbed to the bottom of Baldy’s heart, so he spoke up.

“Besides, I haven’t received the antidote yet, and now you want to feed me poison. My life can’t be that miserable, right?”

“I don’t want to go through this, so please don’t treat me like this. Please, I’m begging you, if you want me to agree to something—”

“I could agree to other demands too, just don’t treat me like this. Right now, I am really afraid of being treated this way.”

Hearing this, Crescent pinched the space between his eyebrows.

His will to survive is really strong now, wasn’t he just spouting nonsense here earlier?

Why has he stopped talking now? Is he really feeling scared?

Doesn’t seem like it.

Just then, Qin Yuan’s face showed no change as he sat aside.

He was also looking at the chessboard in front of him; after all, the game wasn’t finished yet.

Feeling somewhat bored, he started to play chess.

Just as Qin Yuan was about to entertain himself.

Ling Yu sitting opposite couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Big brother, didn’t you agree to play chess with me? Besides, it’s my turn now, why are you still tinkering around?”

“This is a bit against the rules, don’t you think? Either we finish this game together—”

“Or you play another round with me. Anyway, I’ve made up my mind to stick with you. So, what’s it going to be? How do you choose?”

Hearing this, Qin Yuan couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

So this is sticking to him, huh.

But indeed, he was feeling quite bored. Having a chess buddy wasn’t bad.

At least they could play together and not feel so bored.

At this moment, Qin Yuan slightly curled the corners of his lips.

“Alright, let’s do it together.”

The situation over at Crescent Moon and Baldy’s was noisy and boisterous.

But the atmosphere between Qin Yuan and Ling Yu was exceptionally calm.

This ambiance was somewhat pleasant.

Just then, Ling Yu slightly narrowed his eyes.

“You kid, actually playing this move.”

“Yeah, what’s wrong with it?”

“Don’t you want to consider changing your move?”

“I don’t want to consider it at all.” Qin Yuan flatly refused.

Moreover, he had been contemplating this chess move for a long time, so why would he reconsider it?

Of course, he wasn’t going to reconsider.

Just at that moment, Qin Yuan slightly curved his lips upward.

“How about you consider it?”

“I don’t want to consider either.”

He outright refused.

Right then, their atmosphere was quite amiable, and they even couldn’t help but start laughing.

Seeing this scene, Brother Shan was indeed very jealous, and the hand hanging by his face trembled slightly.

His eyes progressively turned gloomy.

How come their relationship was so good? They quickly got along and played together.

Is it really necessary to get along so well just over a chess game?

It was truly dumbfounding. How should things proceed if this continues?

What to do if one simply can’t feel any better, especially now when feeling really angry?

At this moment, Qin Yuan slightly narrowed his eyes and then immediately said.

“Brother Shan, how about a game?”

He had finished playing with Ling Yu, so it was time for the next player.

He noticed that Brother Shan’s expression wasn’t very good, so he asked.

In fact, this was also an offer of a way out.

It depends on whether Brother Shan would take it or not.

Brother Shan narrowed his eyes slightly, but said nothing as silence spread between them.

He still seemed quite proud.

At that moment, Qin Yuan spoke with a smile.

“I just played a few rounds with Ling Yu, and I didn’t find it challenging. Why don’t you play a game with me?”

“To be honest, I haven’t really played against you before. I’m curious about your chess skills. It would really interest me.”

“I wonder if I have the honor to play this game with you. If I am honored, I would definitely be very happy.”

Hearing these words, Brother Shan felt much better than before, no longer as sullen as he was at the start.

A faint smile appeared on his face involuntarily, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

Who would have thought that this kid could be so eloquent?

Seeing how well they played before made me really jealous.

But these few words resolved those feelings. It seems he really is quite capable.

He also has the strength to be their leader, no doubt about it.

At that moment, a shallow smile still lingered on Brother Shan’s face.

“Such a heartfelt invitation is hard to refuse.”

Since he had invited with so much enthusiasm, surely it’s time to play a game of chess, and it wasn’t a big deal.

It’s very simple, isn’t it? Just a game of chess, and it will be over quickly.

Maybe I’ll even learn something enjoyable from playing chess with him.

Thinking of this, Brother Shan’s smile became even more brilliant.

Therefore, Ling Yu swelled up slightly with pride, not feeling any discomfort at all.

After all, he had played several rounds already, and it was Brother Shan’s turn now. Anyway, everything had to take turns.
