Chapter 573 - 267: He Is the Famed Advisor Chen (Part 3)

Li Junyue nodded and replied, "Yes, Minister."

"Repeat the situation here." Su Quan turned to face the New Star Association members and returned to the main topic, "The fourth group was ambushed by them?"

"....Yes." As Li Junyue quietly mourned the fourth group, he detailed the events of the evening.

After a long time,

Su Quan walked back and forth with his hands behind his back: "Hmm, their actions were very abnormal."

After a slight pause, he turned to all the members of the ninth group: "Let others take over from here, you all enjoy this holiday."

"Oh right." Seeing all the members’ relieved expressions, Su Quan squeezed out a smile, "You’ve all worked hard today, let’s add another day to your holiday."

Everyone was initially stunned, then cheered loudly: "Minister, you are wise!"

Unlike the joyful ninth group, the New Star Association members kneeling on the ground were already in despair.

Once the division members detained the New Star Association members and left, Chen Yuan and his group also set off back to the city.

As Su Quan left, he invited him to visit the seventh division tomorrow to observe their training and interact with other team leaders, but Chen Yuan politely declined.

They planned to go into the mountains in Deqing County to collect mushrooms tomorrow, which conflicted with the time.

Moreover, Chen Yuan hoped to enjoy these few days of holiday and avoid battles as much as possible.

Upon returning to the city by car, the team members bade farewell, but Lin hesitated and approached Chen Yuan with his head down, looking shy: "Advisor Chen, can I ask you a favor?"

"Go ahead."

"My girlfriend really likes you, can you sign an autograph for me?"

"Sure."

After Lin left excitedly with a shirt signed by Chen Yuan, Jiang Wenning joked on the side: "Orange is truly a big celebrity now."

Chen Yuan chuckled wryly: "Still far from it."

Thanks to the report by the Donghuang Daily, his fame spread to most of Donghuang. However, the majority of people only knew his name and deeds, not his appearance, so even walking on the streets, few would recognize him.

This was different from Qin Province, where after the Da Feng Cup’s live broadcast, he might be surrounded if he appeared anywhere.

Back at the hotel,

"Aw..."

The depressed Cola walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, sat down heavily, and its tail swayed listlessly behind it, while its dull, blue eyes stared blankly at the night outside.

"Cola, what’s wrong?"

Chen Yuan keenly sensed Cola’s anomaly, pulled a chair to sit beside it, and asked concernedly.

"Aw."

Facing its owner’s question, Cola unusually didn’t respond but buried its head lower, letting out a heavy sigh.

Chen Yuan frowned, opting not to inquire further but rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought.

The whole day’s events flashed through his mind, recalling Cola’s various behaviors, and soon his eyes lit up, murmuring softly: "So that’s it."

Reaching a conclusion in his heart, Chen Yuan moved the chair aside and sat directly next to Cola, gently petting its furry head with his right hand.

Cola’s body trembled slightly, its ears twitching in response. It wanted to pounce on its owner immediately, responding to his strokes with its wet, hot tongue.

But Cola held back, deliberately turning its head away from Chen Yuan, while its tail inadvertently climbed onto Chen Yuan’s arm.

Chen Yuan smiled: "I know you’re unhappy because you didn’t get to show off today as you wished."

The Twin Flower Concubine waved away the poisonous mist, the ninth group fought fiercely with the opponent’s Pet Beast, and Spark spread its wings to intimidate the New Star Association members.

All of these, Cola could have done.

But it chose not to compete.

"Aw..."

Cola’s ears twitched again, and it finally reacted, turning to look at Chen Yuan, with a flicker of grievance in its lowered eyes.

Chen Yuan raised one finger: "One bottle of cola."

"Aw?"

Cola lifted its head, showing interest.

Chen Yuan raised two fingers: "Two bottles."

"Aw."

Cola’s eyes shone, its breathing quickening.

"Three bottles."

"Aw aw!"

Cola suddenly turned around and pounced on Chen Yuan.

"Hmm?"

The Twin Flower Concubine, studying the advanced secrets of Poison Skills, was disturbed by the commotion caused by a person and a pet, and its eyes showed slight annoyance, with pale pink mist swirling around it.

Yet it did not summon the mist, instead, it turned to walk into another small room, completely shutting out the outside disturbances.

"Chirp."

Spark looked down at the person and pet roughhousing, and shook its head.
