Chapter 211: Only Child

After Cheng Shuili finished reading, she roughly understood the organization's situation.

Guanghui sent another summary.

"Guanghui Shines on the Blue Star": In short, our situation here is too complicated, Chen Qing Shan's identity is also very special; even if he doesn't want to, a group will push him up, so leaving the organization is also a helpless option.

Cheng Shuili nodded and asked Guanghui what was going on with him.

"Guanghui Shines on the Blue Star": The straightforward one acted on his own that time, delayed until now to give the punishment result, which conveniently coincided with quitting the organization together with Chen Qing Shan. Zhu Xuan said that this way the two of us have each other's support.

Support, huh?

Cheng Shuili was speechless; this isn't buying groceries, it's buy‑one‑get‑one‑free?

However, Guanghui's situation is indeed awkward, something even Cheng Shuili, an outsider, can see.

Guanghui, being inside the situation, can feel it even more clearly.

Cheng Shuili sighed and extended an olive branch to Guanghui. Actually, in her view, Chen Qing Shan is the one who offered it.

"Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji": Come on.

Zhao Hong's eyes reddened the moment he saw those two characters; actually he doesn't want much—just to live well and do a few things properly, but that's all, and the organization can't give him that.

He had long imagined a day when he would talk about these things with Wu Ya, but never thought Wu Ya would invite him to join.

Zhao Hong rubbed his eyes and once again confirmed that Wu Ya is someone worth following.

For Cheng Shuili, she and Guanghui initially had some unpleasantness; Guanghui morally blackmailed her, and Cheng Shuili retaliated. But the later transaction was fairly pleasant, a case of "no fight, no acquaintance."

Moreover, after Guanghui no longer represented the organization, Cheng Shuili could feel that his character was still decent.

Yet these are just surface reasons; they aren't enough for Cheng Shuili to send those two words.

Pleasant transactions, good character—people like that are abundant on the regional channel.

As for why she specifically sent an invitation to Guanghui…

Cheng Shuili squinted; of course it's because Guanghui once served as a spokesperson! Most people on the regional channel still have an innate fondness for his ID.

That's very rare.

He is essentially a pseudo‑god the organization tried to create but failed.

God loves the world; bearing the name Guanghui, he truly cares for everyone selflessly like sunlight.

If you compare Guanghui to something, he's like a battery, drawing power from the organization and supplying it to everyone on the regional channel.

Unfortunately, the organization can't sustain that consumption.

Cheng Shuili knows a bit of the organization's struggle, from initially exploiting information for profit to later outright stripping Guanghui of his position…

Cheng Shuili shook her head; actually she also felt regretful.

In any case, the organization's decision at the time to stop Guanghui from speaking was definitely wrong.

That means all the resources they invested early on went down the drain, and now… as long as Guanghui joins another organization, the previous effort becomes a wedding dress made for others in vain.

Cheng Shuili originally thought they'd restrict Guanghui forever, until they no longer could, or simply eliminate this trouble.

She didn't expect Zhu Xuan to release the person so easily.

Cheng Shuili couldn't help but shake her head again; she knows Zhu Xuan joined after the region merged, meaning the previous organization's contributions had nothing to do with him… they spent resources that weren't theirs, so they feel no remorse.

She muttered a few complaints in her mind but said nothing; anyway, as someone who benefited, she shouldn't be speaking.

"Guanghui Shines on the Blue Star": Okay.

Fine.

This side is settled.

Just missing Chen Qing Shan.

Cheng Shuili's assessment of the two is very clear: Guanghui can be kept temporarily. Next week the team Instance will start, and Cheng Shuili's team will surely grow, so this person will definitely be of great use in the future.

As for Chen Qing Shan…

His replaceability is too high.

However, using him as a black‑labourer is fine. She didn't directly accept Zhu Xuan's request, but first asked what resources the other side was willing to provide.

Since it's a transaction, it must be clarified.

"Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji": What are the specific terms?

After sending this message, Cheng Shuili lightly tapped the table with her fingers; she was indeed in a good mood, just moving her lips…

Oh no, just moving her fingers can get the resources; more of this would be fine, she wouldn't mind having more.

Zhu Xuan's reply came quickly.

"Zhu Xuan": I'll give you 1,000 Game Coins each month, plus two Vehicle Cards, is that okay? Also, after they join your team, everything will follow your orders, and we will have no further ties. Whatever amount of resources you ask them to hand over… I believe they won't object.

Cheng Shuili stared at the message for a full three seconds, then burst into laughter.

The resources are average, but the latter condition is unbelievably generous.

This is basically paying to sign a contract of servitude.

Cheng Shuili felt a bit sorry for Chen Qing Shan; this is even worse than Su Rui.

Actually Zhu Xuan's words are just polite, like a mother sending her child to school, telling the teacher to discipline them, and it's okay to intervene.

Can the teacher really intervene physically?

But Cheng Shuili will actually take action.

Her fingertips hovered over the screen for a moment, treating the spectacle as if it weren't a big deal, and she opened the private chat with Chen Qing Shan.

"Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji": Your brother wants to sell you, you know?

Chen Qing Shan replied quickly.

From Chen Qing Shan's perspective, he had submitted a résumé, so even if Cheng Ershui the boss refuses, they'd at least send a rejection message, right?

He waited anxiously for a long time, finally got a message, but it was this inexplicable line.

Chen Qing Shan scratched his head and asked.

【Qing Shan Yuan Xing】：My brother? Who's that? I'm an only child.

Cheng Shuili paused, then suddenly realized.

She finally knew what the problem was—turns out they never even discussed it properly, huh?

No wonder two people had to take turns contacting her!

Cheng Shuili suddenly perked up, realizing that since they hadn't coordinated, she could totally play both sides!

Cheng Shuili's fingertips danced lightly across the screen, the corner of her mouth curling into a sly arc.

She first replied to Zhu Xuan:

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】：One thousand Game Coin is too little; I want two thousand. Besides, you should have organized data inside your organization, right? Information about monsters, or some uncommon items—bring this.

After sending that, she immediately switched to Chen Qing Shan's chat window.

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】：I saw your message; your terms are not bad, but they don't quite match my standards here. If you insist on coming, your treatment might differ a bit from the other members—consider whether you can accept that.
