Chapter 3: Leader's Little Brother Is In Charge of Looking Pretty—translated by Michimochi (proofread by Trespasserby & elisa; C/E edited by lucathia)
Wiping away sweat from my forehead, I discovered the shortcoming of having both a guy and a girl residing in my head. No matter if I looked at guys or girls, I was either not thinking of them as the same sex as me, such as when I was perving on Dàgē and Jin Feng, or I wasn't considering them as the opposite sex, with a "take off your clothes" slipping out to a little girl just like that.
I needed to pay more attention in the future. I'm a man now! With the corresponding appendage! I can't just go into the girls' bathroom! Important things have to be stressed three times!
Afterwards, I found two thick, long combat coats and knocked on the bathroom door. I said, "There are two coats hanging on the door. Once you're done bathing, put them on for now and stay put in the courtyard house. Don't run off. I'll head out and find you some clothes."
A high pitched "okay" came through the door from the girl. I could finally relax and flee. On my way out, I told Wen Jianuo that I was going to the mansion. He asked if I could help figure out where Ah Qing had gone.
"He might have seen a beauty along the way and went off to flirt." I thought about Ah Qing's personality and how he cared little for gender as long as they were pretty. It was actually highly possible that he had been seduced away.
Wen Jianuo shook his head and said, "When doing business, Ah Qing is more serious than anyone."
After hearing this, I started to feel that something was wrong as well. The courtyard house was not that far from the mansion. To be gone for such a long time, if he wasn't neglecting his duties, then something really must have happened.
After considering this, I said, "Then let's all go together, with you leading the squad. If nothing has happened, the troop can stay there and support Lily."
Wen Jianuo also thought that this was for the best. He called for the others at once──which just made for eight. Ah Qing had already taken two people with him, and Su Ying was helping out at the mansion.
Before leaving, Wen Jianuo specifically reminded the troop members that in front of outsiders, Jiang Shuyu was supposedly just a "vice-captain" that the leader had shoved at them. They were not allowed to slip up and reveal anything about Jiang Shuyu being the true captain of this troop. If there was danger, everyone even had to protect the frail young vice-captain.
Once this was said, while everyone's posture remained serious, their expressions became a bit distorted.
Along the way, I didn't speak a single word. Silently, I stood in between the pair of siblings Xue Xi and Xue Huan. I intended to properly conceal myself from this point on. In the meantime, I could observe whether Wen Jianuo could assume the role as the "Captain of the Ice Spears."
Once we reached the mansion, we finally found Chen Yanqing and the two others. Holding huge piles of things in their hands, the trio stood right in front of the gate. Their faces were pale. They looked restless and seemed like they wanted to leave, but they were surrounded by a group of civilians.
The people kept their eyes locked on the supplies in Chen Yanqing's hands. They didn't have to say anything. The greed glowing in their eyes exposed what they wanted to do.
"Those are the civilians that came with us." Xue Xi gritted his teeth and said, "That fucking prick, it's him again!"
"Who are you talking about?" I asked in a low voice.
