314. Rejoining the Team
After the two returned to the group, they were pulled out and interrogated by Jiang Shaoxu.
"What have you and Mu Ningxue been doing these past few days?"
Tang Miao shrugged and then said, "Don't you read the news?"
"What news are you looking at? Did you cheat on me?!" Jiang Shaoxu glared at Tang Miao, her temper flaring, and said with great dissatisfaction.
This is why Tang Miao and Mu Ningxue left together, and since Mu Ningxue had saved her, she felt too embarrassed to cause trouble for her. Besides, Jiang Shaoxu believed that Tang Miao Mu Ningxue away! Even if something had happened, she was passively involved...
There's no way around it; these days, owing favors is a real hassle...
"I'm wearing your *** hat, am I that kind of person?" Tang Miao looked at Jiang Shaoxu as if he had been wronged, using polite language.
ヾ(?`Д′?)?
Seeing Tang Miao so angry, Jiang Shaoxu laughed. Whether she was out of her mind or had lost her mind, she actually believed it...
"It's because they care about you."
Offering her softness, she shook Tang Miao's arm and said, "Then why didn't you take me with you?"
Tang Miao curled her lip, saying with obvious disdain, "When we went to complete the bounty, what were you doing there? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
Although he looked disgusted, his hands were surprisingly honest.
To be honest, while the cold beauty was quite pitiful, she wasn't as irresistible as Jiang Fox, making Tang Miao want to push her away all the time...
But this little vixen isn't someone you can just... have sex with casually~
At least until the World National Prefecture Competition are over, Tang Miao feels it is necessary for him to remain chaste!
Jiang Shaoxu pouted and retorted, "That's because you didn't call me!"
"Are you blaming me now?"
"Is it my fault?"
"..."
The two debated for a while, but halfway through, the girl cheated... In the end, Tang Miao took full responsibility for all the mistakes.
However, I must say, the feeling of those little hands manipulating her was quite stimulating—at least many times better than my own five fingers... even the time was significantly shorter... It wasn't that he was useless, but Tang Miao felt that this little vixen had definitely been watching a lot of adult films lately! And she'd probably wasted a lot of bananas and cucumbers too...
Half an hour had passed when the two returned after their argument ended.
This gave the others a chance to greet Tang Miao, and Tang Miao responded to each of them. Of course, some people ignored Tang Miao.
For example, Guan Yu, Zu Jiming, and Mu Nujiao with indifference.
She was incredibly enthusiastic towards Mu Ningxue, but as for him? She practically ignored him completely, as if even seeing him was an eyesore.
Tang Miao could only shrug helplessly; he had been prepared for this all along. His mental fortitude was quite strong.
"Boss Tang, don't tell me you left all this time just to deal with the World Drowning Curse?" At this moment, Zhao Manyan came over and asked Tang Miao with a serious expression.
How did you know it was us who solved it?
Tang Miao paused, realizing that the media had only just begun to publicize it, and Ling Ling had reported it under the name of the Qingtian Hunter Agency.
Zhao Manyan looked at Tang Miao with some displeasure, as if he had been slighted. He glared and said, "Nonsense! In the Qingtian Hunter Agency, the only ones who are really doing the work right now are you and little Ling Ling. Who else could it be but you two?"
Zhao Manyan had met Ling Ling a few times, and he also knew a bit about the Qingtian Hunter Agency. So, when the news broke, coupled with Tang Miao's recent leave, he immediately understood.
Tang Miao stared at Zhao Manyan, looking him up and down before saying, "Not bad, I never knew you could be so clever!"
However, as Zhao Manyan said, Qingtian Hunter Agency is indeed an old brand, but in fact, only Tang Miao and Ling Ling are currently taking orders frequently.
The other hunters are not only strong, but they're also seasoned veterans who've been sitting around doing nothing for a while.
They're incredibly picky about jobs; they won't take anything too easy, anything with low pay, or anything too far away... In short, they won't accept any kind of job...
Tang Miao wasn't even sure if these people were still hunters.
Moreover, even now, Tang Miao has no idea how many people are actually in the Qingtian Hunter Agency. All he knows is that... Senior Sister Leng Qing is the Vice Judge, Old Man Bao is the Old Hunter King, and besides the two of them, there's only his little partner, the loli Ling Ling.
As for the other people, Tang Miao had seen their photos, but he had no idea what their names were, how old they were, or what their cultivation levels were.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" After a moment of stunned silence, Zhao Manyan came to his senses and asked Tang Miao uncertainly.
Tang Miao: (????)? ""
He didn't respond. After all, Zhao Manyan's intelligence, aside from business and dating young models, was practically zero, or perhaps even negative.
Seeing that Tang Miao didn't speak but only gave him a smile, Zhao Manyan was even more puzzled!
Helpless, he could only pat him on the shoulder and kindly reply, "Have more confidence, bro."
Hearing this, Zhao Manyan finally smiled, but Tang Miao's voice followed. "Remove 'could it be'."
Zhao Manyan: (??ˇ?ˇ??)
He had originally intended to say something more, but after Tang Miao's insidious and harmless insult, he instantly lost all desire to speak.
Tang Miao looked around and discovered that Mo Fan was nowhere to be found.
Looking at Zhao Manyan with some doubt, he asked, "I said, what happened to that bastard Mo Fan?"
"Him? Seems like he's got some kind of bounty on him too. Like you guys, he took leave to make some money." Zhao Manyan, thick-skinned as ever, quickly recovered and immediately responded to Tang Miao's question. Then he rubbed his hands together and said, "I really envy you hunters. This bounty is so high it makes me jealous! I wonder what kind of bounty that kid Mo Fan is up to?"
Tang Miao glanced at Zhao Manyan and raised her middle finger. "If Dad had a father like you, why would he need to work so hard from dawn till dusk and risk his life to do something like offering a bounty?"
"That makes sense," Zhao Manyan agreed.
Although he couldn't suddenly possess hundreds of millions, the magical tools, artifacts, and Soul Seed he had all added up to an astronomical figure.
Besides, with that time to lie on a sofa in a bar or on a big bed in a hotel, enjoying the company of a beautiful, youthful model—wouldn't that be better?
Tang Miao didn't care about what Zhao Manyan was thinking, and as for whether Mo Fan was there or not, he just asked casually. What Mo Fan was doing was not important to Tang Miao.
