Wang Jianshe poured himself another cup of tea, poured one for Su Wuwei as well, and sat down across from him.

"Investigating what? You're overthinking it." Su Wuwei waved a hand lazily. "With my half-baked strength, I'd count myself lucky not to end up getting ganged up on."
Yang You shook his head. "I don't believe
