Gu Qingqiu was speechless.
"Shouldn't I lead by example?"
Xia Hongyao was surprised.
"If you die, who will command?"
Gu Qingqiu retorted.
"You or Little Linzi. It can't be me, right?"
Xia Hongyao thought the question was a no-brainer.
"..."
Gu Qingqiu didn't expect Xia Hongyao to be so self-aware. To be honest, leading by example represents a selfless character in itself.
"Miaomiao stays outside to keep watch."
"Yi Jisheng leads the way."
"Xuyue brings up the rear!"
Lin Baici spoke up, assigning the tasks.
Everyone immediately complied. Although they were newcomers, they weren't stupid and had long noticed that Xia Hongyao listened to Lin Baici particularly closely.
Yi Jisheng was the first to enter the building, followed by Lin Baici, then Xia Hongyao, with Gu Qingqiu and Ai Xuyue bringing up the rear.
As soon as they entered, a foul odor assaulted their senses.
"It smells awful!"
