Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Yu Man’er replied, "Lord Governor, rest assured, my brother and I will give it our all."

"But Lord, what about Laughing Buddha?"

The Garrison Commander said, "Don’t worry about him. If he says he won’t partake in this matter, he won’t. Peng Yingyu is a man of his word."

Yu Man’er responded, "Lord, I’m not talking about that. I’m wondering what in the Medicine King Treasure could capture the interest of such an expert. If we could get our hands on it, wouldn’t that be something?"

Ba Tan, the Garrison Commander, turned and glanced at Yu Man’er, saying, "Man’er, human greed knows no bounds. Even though whatever interests Laughing Buddha must be exceedingly rare, such treasures are beyond our reach, so this time, no one is to harbor any crooked thoughts. If we provoke Peng Yingyu, not even gods could save you."

Yu Man’er pouted and said, "Lord, you don’t think I’m a fool, do you? I’d be insane to covet anything of Peng Yingyu’s. I meant, could we not find this item ahead of time and then owe Peng Yingyu a huge favor? Wouldn’t that be wonderful?"

Ba Tan frowned slightly upon hearing this, then said, "Better not, the risk is too great. If our cleverness turns against us, it would spell our doom!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Man’er said, "Then, then we’ll follow your command, Lord."

Having said that, Yu Man’er leaned against Ba Tan, who wantonly fondled her full figure, while Nan Batian watched, a trace of resentment in his eyes.

Ba Tan noticed his look but paid it no mind; he enjoyed humiliating Yu Man’er in front of Nan Batian, which gave him a peculiar thrill.
