Chapter 3046: The One to Truly Guard Against! Only the King of Ten Thousand Slaves!

But very soon, a new question was born in Yang Lu's mind—Zhang Lin not wanting her to take risks was one thing, but on the other hand, wasn't it also because he didn't acknowledge her ability?

That was why he made such a choice. Once a person starts overthinking, it becomes terrifying, and that was exactly Yang Lu's state right now.

At least in the current situation, Yang Lu truly didn't know how to choose, so overthinking had replaced everything else.

Shen Qiong could only smile wryly when she heard Yang Lu say that. Standing in the other's shoes to consider the question, Shen Qiong also felt there was nothing wrong with what she said.

But at this moment she had to hold firm—if Yang Lu kept carrying this state with her, it wouldn't do any good for the road they still had to walk.

So Shen Qiong kept the same earnest, heartfelt tone as before and said, "Captain Yang, the way you are now makes none of us feel at ease. What exactly did Xue Long say to you, or does Mr. Zhang have some corresponding order?"

After hearing this question, Yang Lu couldn't help but sigh. She muttered to herself, hoping that whatever order Zhang Lin had would be told to her.

But the reality was she hadn't received any order at all—Lin's Claim was simply to tell her to keep going forward, carrying on with this inexplicable arrangement.

Now Yang Lu really wanted to know what would happen next, but she didn't dare contact Zhang Lin directly, afraid of disturbing him, or that Zhang Lin's earlier decision was really because he was angry.

Under such circumstances, Yang Lu was very clear—whatever she did, she definitely couldn't extinguish Zhang Lin's anger. This was what they called "caring too much clouds the mind."

The more you care about a person, the more every one of their decisions tugs at every nerve in you. Even if it's just a detail the other person doesn't care about, from Yang Lu's perspective she would pay special attention to these changes, and would also react differently to each one.

Shen Qiong still wanted to keep trying, but at that moment Yang Lu suddenly stood up—she hadn't figured it out, she had made peace with herself.

Then Yang Lu threw an arm around Shen Qiong's shoulder and walked straight out, saying as she went, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Everyone has to be all right. Since we've already come this far, each of us should be clear about what our mission is!"

Yang Lu didn't say any more, and that line of hers was told to Shen Qiong alone, trusting that Shen Qiong could read between the lines.

Right now Su Nan's situation still needed guarding against, and Yang Lu hadn't privately asked Shen Qiong what kind of person Su Nan really was. Perhaps Yang Lu had already given herself an answer to these questions in her heart, and was convinced that answer was correct.

Besides, as long as she chose to trust Zhang Lin, then none of these questions were questions at all—this was the thought Yang Lu had to hold onto now.

If she chose to completely distrust Zhang Lin because of those earlier things, then even Yang Lu herself would feel she couldn't justify it.

To put it harshly, that would be biting the hand that feeds you.

If it were only about personal feelings, and Yang Lu handled every problem with her emotions, then even if she said nothing here, whether it was the authorities, the livestream room, or even outsiders seeing all this, they would probably condemn her from the moral high ground at the first opportunity.

After her brief breakdown, Yang Lu adjusted her state because she had to trust her senior brother absolutely, and another reason was knowing that now she wasn't living just for herself—there were also the others of Archaeology Team Two.

After all, if it weren't for her leading so many people into the Ancient City of Jingjue to seek the answer to breaking the curse, the members of Archaeology Team Two wouldn't all be bearing the curse on their bodies at the same time.
