Chapter 44 - 44

The three of them were shocked to see this. Based on their past understanding of Ye Qingfeng, he should have never had the opportunity to handle a firearm. They never expected that he had only just gotten one this morning, and now he could already perform such a precise shot. Just as Ye Qingfeng said, he was truly a genius!

The three of them turned to look at Ye Qingfeng at the same time. Feeling their gazes on him, he began his final move, raising the still-smoking muzzle to his lips and giving it a gentle blow.

Anby held her hands in front of her and clapped lightly with her still blank expression, "Ooh—! Qingfeng is a sharpshooter!"

"I didn't know you had such a strong talent for shooting!" Billy said, quite surprised. Although he could replicate the scene from just now, it wasn't comparable! For one, he was a combat robot; for him, shooting only required simple aiming and firing, but Ye Qingfeng was different—he was someone who had never used a gun before. Even setting that aside, people get nervous and their hands shake, making them incomparable to robots in shooting.

Nicole was very pleased to see the pebble shattered in the air. Her initial plan was to train Ye Qingfeng to become a public employee, and after he accidentally entered the Hollow, she became even more certain of this choice. Whether it was Billy or Anby! Nicole treated them both like family, and even Ye Qingfeng, who had only recently joined the Cunning Hares, was no exception. Whether it was because of his age or his personality, Nicole mostly treated him like a younger brother. But when she saw that Ye Qingfeng also had a talent for shooting, it was like a fledgling bird with a broken wing suddenly learning to fly. She was genuinely happy for him!

[Beep! Nicole's favorability has increased by 5%, current favorability: 60%]

[Rewarded with 5 lottery draws!]

"My little brother is amazing!"

Nicole completely forgot their current situation and excitedly ran towards Ye Qingfeng, hooking the back of his neck and trapping it in her armpit while using her other hand to take off his crown and mess up his hair.

"Still knew to bring a crown to show off!"

Nicole's massive assets pressed firmly against Ye Qingfeng's cheek, and a strong, milky fragrance rushed into his nostrils. He instantly felt as if he were drunk, his entire face flushing a deep red that extended to the tips of his ears.

So soft! (╯▽╰ ) So fragrant~~So...I can't breathe!!

"Mmmph! Mmm!"

Nicole looked down in confusion at the Ye Qingfeng in her arms, who was constantly making whimpering sounds. She saw his entire face buried in her chest, with his flushed cheeks faintly visible.

"Wah!" Nicole immediately let go of Ye Qingfeng, looking at him awkwardly as he gasped for breath and cautiously asking, "Qingfeng, are you okay?"

"What do you think?"

Ye Qingfeng glanced at Nicole with disdain and retorted. If enjoying the perks from Sister Nicole every time meant risking suffocation, then it was better for this kind of thing not to happen too often! He still remembered what that master of romance from before his transmigration said: when dealing with girls, you just need to remember two things! Don't initiate! Don't reject! Don't say it! Hey, you really shouldn't have said it! It's really that kind of truth!

Anby walked up to Ye Qingfeng and blinked, "Qingfeng, your face is so red."

"Cough cough!" Ye Qingfeng coughed awkwardly. Worried that Nicole might get suspicious, he quickly changed the subject, "So, what's your current situation?"

Reminded by Ye Qingfeng, the others finally remembered they were still trapped in the Hollow and briefly explained the situation to him.

Ye Qingfeng was a bit surprised by Nicole's decision. He raised an eyebrow at her and teased, "I really didn't expect you to choose not to report the Proxy, Sis?"

"Yeah... it's really not something I thought I'd do..." Nicole's mood sank a little as she thought of their predicament. "The Cunning Hares, who are greedy for money... my creed has always been to mind my own business and not care about others."

"I didn't expect you to make the same choice as Phaethon and the others."

Ye Qingfeng briefly told Nicole what happened at the video store.

"Phaethon and the others gave up their main account to save us?!"

After hearing Ye Qingfeng's story, Nicole couldn't help but be surprised. After all, both Phaethon and they had made decisions that went against their own interests. When she came back to her senses, she realized all three of them were looking at her. Realizing she had lost her composure, Nicole crossed her arms, "Honestly! To stop me from haggling, Phaethon actually had the heart to give away their account!"

Just then, Eous, who was lying on the ground, stood up and suddenly spoke in Belle's voice, "Nicole really knows how to get her money's worth, doesn't she!"

"Eeeeeeeek!"

Hearing Belle's voice, Nicole instinctively covered her mouth and let out a scream.

Belle teased with a smile, "Nicole, couldn't you have a little more joy in your scream?"

"Proxy?! Is it really you guys?"

Nicole, who had been dejected just a moment ago, instantly revealed a smile. Their appearance meant that a turning point had come.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Wise's spoke with a laid back tone "When we saw you all chatting happily, we decided to sit back, watch and wait until you are done talking"

Belle shyly covered her cheeks with both hands and coquettishly said, "Bro! It's not like that~"

Hearing Belle's sugary voice, Billy suddenly felt a chill, as if he had goosebumps. Eh? Aren't I a robot? Can I still feel this way?

"The shop owner are so creepy."

Billy silently complained to Ye Qingfeng beside him.

.

"So you all heard?" Nicole's head slowly turned to the side, her face flushed as she let out a cute whimper, "Mm... mmmnnn~!"

"I didn't know Sis Nicole had such a cute side" Ye Qingfeng leaned close to Billy and teased in a low voice making sure she didn't hear.

"Yeah! I thought Nicole was a female tyr— ah— dragon in her past life!"

In a flash, Nicole's figure moved like a phantom as she closed in on Billy, fiercely raising her right leg and kicking towards his waist.

"Bi—lly!"

With a dull "thud," Billy's body instantly arched, flying out like a kite with a broken string and heavily landing several meters away.

"Wow! Nicole is even treating us to a show!" Belle said with a smile, not forgetting to fan the flames. "Brother, do you think we should consider giving Nicole a discount?"

"Now that you mention it, you have a point, but..." Wise instantly caught the hidden meaning in Belle's words, "A performance of this level might not be enough!"

Hearing this, Nicole's eyes instantly turned red. She slowly turned her head to look at Billy.

The hunt is on!

"No! Please, Boss Nicole! Qingfeng, save me!"
