Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Five [Wolf Among Sheep]
Chen Nuo clenched a cigarette between his lips.
SNAP!
Behind him, a hand reached out with a lighter, the flame flickering.
Chen Nuo looked up at the female mercenary standing in front of him, noting her beautiful face glistening with sweat. He smiled faintly, leaned in to light the cigarette, then took a drag.
"Thank you." Selena stood beside Chen Nuo, gazing at the stream in front of them.
"Thank me for what?"
"A few times on the road, when it was your turn to lead, you deliberately slowed down." Selena murmured softly, "It saved a few of my people."
"Mhm."
"You all are tough guys. I heard the others talking; they were even ready to abandon the team and leave... I'm well aware that if you had left, my people would definitely have been doomed in this Red Mist."
"Don't worry, if they'd gone, they would have taken you with them." Chen Nuo shook his head.
"No, I'd choose to stay with my people," Selena shook her head.
