Why Was She So Bad at Taking a Hint?

"General Yaoguang, what are you saying? The importance of your position is simply a matter of serving the Xianzhou native."

"Ha, how high-sounding! If that were the case, why is Miss Tingyun out in her Starskiff now? As far as I know, the operation isn't over yet."

Yaoguang sneered at Tingyun's point of view. Clearly, Tingyun had discovered something, otherwise he wouldn't have come out now.

Thinking of this, Yaoguang continued, "I saw Miss Tingyun driving the Starskiff from afar, and at such a high speed. Could there be something inside the Starskiff?"

As Yaoguang spoke, he made a gesture as if to open the door of the Starskiff, as if he wanted to examine it carefully.

Tingyun's heart tightened at Yaoguang 'Yaoguang actions, and she quickly stopped him, speaking coldly to him, "Yaoguang, what do you mean by this? You don't even have a search warrant, yet you want to inspect this young lady's Starskiff? I have Luofu's secrets inside; can you bear the consequences?"

"Secret? That's nothing but a lie. Besides, as the General of the Xianzhou, do you think I can't stand seeing this so-called secret?"

As he spoke, Yaoguang slapped Tingyun's hand away, making a move to begin the inspection.

"You!"

Tingyun felt a surge of anxiety, but before she could finish speaking, the window of the Starskiff was opened, and Bai Luoming emerged from it.

"Alas, General Yaoguang, why bother?"

Yaoguang seeing Bai Luoming appear, Yao Guang glanced at Tingyun with disdain, snorted coldly, and said no more to Tingyun. He then turned to Bai Luoming and spoke in a familiar tone.

"Oh, isn't this the great hero of Luofu? Why are you sitting in Miss Tingyun's Starskiff looking like this?"

"Don't say anymore, it's a long story..."

Watching the interaction between the two, Tingyun felt resentful and also somewhat dissatisfied with Bai Luoming. She could have easily gotten away with it earlier, but he insisted on showing his face. Now, everyone is stuck here.

"Alright, great hero, you should get off the carriage first. What kind of appearance is it to sit on Miss Tingyun's Starskiff without even wearing proper clothes? We can't tarnish Miss Tingyun's reputation."

"Mind your own business!"

Tingyun looked at Yaoguang with some annoyance, completely losing her previous elegant demeanor.

"Tsk tsk, someone's getting angry."

Yaoguang completely ignored Tingyun's attitude. Seeing Bai Luoming's appearance, she quickly told the Cloud Knights beside her to find some clothes.

Cloud Knights the order and arrived with the clothes within two minutes.

Yaoguang took the clothes and handed them directly to Bai Luoming before softly saying to him, "Alright, my great hero, can you get off the Starskiff now?"

"What are you saying? Our benefactor would never descend from the Starskiff raft, wouldn't you agree, benefactor..."

Tingyun was somewhat exasperated. Yaoguang's actions had completely cut off her escape route. She had originally used the excuse of finding clothes for Bai Luoming, but now it was clearly no longer feasible.

"..."

Bai Luoming remained silent for a moment, then shook his head at Yaoguang and said softly, "I'm sorry, General Yaoguang, Miss Tingyun and I have important matters to attend to."

"That's a really disheartening answer, but could you tell me why?"

As Yaoguang spoke, she gripped Bai Luoming's Starskiff, ready to unleash her power at any moment. Her divination told her that today was auspicious, so she was sure to return victorious!

Why should I tell you? This is a matter between me and my benefactor!

After Bai Luoming rejected Yaoguang, Tingyun's tense expression immediately relaxed, and her eyes were full of disdain when she looked at Yaoguang.

Yaoguang ignored Tingyun's words and began to tighten her grip on the Starskiff, causing it to deform continuously in her hand.

However, neither Bai Luoming nor Tingyun noticed Yaoguang's actions.

Bai Luoming hesitated for a moment, unsure how to begin. Should he directly tell Yaoguang that he didn't have the strength right now, that he could still fight alongside Tingyun, but was afraid to follow him?

Don't tease your brother Bai. He guarantees that if you say that, he'll be devoured by Yaoguang until there's not even a bone left. Tingyun will even be tied up and forced to watch, crying and saying things like, "I was here first."

The thought of this scene sent a chill down Bai Luoming's spine, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Seeing that Bai Luoming remained silent for a long time, Yaoguang tightened his grip, and finally, with a "crack," a piece of the Starskiff door was forcibly broken off by Yaoguang.

Upon seeing this, Bai Luoming looked somewhat frightened and asked Yaoguang, "General, what does this mean?"

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about how a little kid didn't listen to me before, and I got a little angry."

Upon hearing this, Bai Luoming immediately understood that Yaoguang was dissatisfied with his silence, but since things had come to this point, he didn't care anymore.

He now faces two paths. One is to follow Yaoguang's advice and land safely in the end. Since Yaoguang doesn't know that his strength has decreased, he should be more restrained.

The second option is to have Tingyun escape in the Starskiff, but this route is undoubtedly extremely dangerous; the slightest mistake could result in being blown up!

Although there is a third option, which is to confront Yao Yaoguang head-on, this option is clearly...

Before Bai Luoming could finish his thought, a mask in his storage space began to shimmer with a faint light.

In an instant, Bai Luoming realized that his previous thoughts were a mistake. What was this talk of compromising? A real man should boldly take the initiative!

Thinking this, he turned to look at Yaoguang and said, "What? General Yaoguang, are you interested in me? You've been wanting me to get off the carriage?"

As Bai Luoming spoke, he grasped Yaoguang's hand, removed it from the Starskiff, and opened the car door to get out.

When Tingyun saw Bai Luoming's state, she was dumbfounded. She gripped the steering wheel, at a loss for what to do, even her tail drooping to the side.

"I'm out. What does General Yaoguang want?"

Yaoguang was pleasantly surprised. She never expected Bai Luoming to actually get out of the car on his own initiative. She was prepared to tear the car door off.

As expected, today's divination is very auspicious; there are absolutely no problems!

Looking at Bai Luoming, who remained composed, Yaoguang Guang subconsciously asked, "Then, could the great hero Bai come with me?"

"Can!"

"If not, then I... eh?"

Yaoguang instinctively tried to defend Bai Luoming, but before he could finish speaking, he realized that Bai Luoming seemed to have said something exciting.

For a moment, Yaoguang was at a loss for words. This was truly a groundbreaking development! Bai Luoming, you have truly delighted me!

She mentally organized her thoughts, while secretly glancing at the stunned Tingyun, thinking to herself how oblivious this guy was, still standing there getting in her way.
