Pretending To Be A Boss

Dong Ran now believed that the Second Miss was truly possessing an unhealthy obsession with Tang.

Feeling inexplicably upset, she still didn't dare to show it on her face.

"All right, you may leave now. Report back to me when you have news about him," said Li Xiaoyu, her expression returning to the indifferent one she had at the beginning, seeming somewhat aloof.

Dong Ran nodded and prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment," Li Xiaoyu suddenly called out to Dong Ran.

"He dragged you into forming a team? The other members haven't been found yet?"

"No."

"So he borrowed your military identity?"

"Yes."

Li Xiaoyu furrowed her brows.

If they hadn't found six people, how could they participate in the Hunting Festival? Or was it that he didn't plan on participating?

"Are the team members all using code names?" asked Li Xiaoyu.

Dong Ran's face turned red again as she thought of that embarrassing code name.

She hoped the Second Miss wouldn't ask what the code name was.

"What's his code name?"

"Tang Wudi."

Li Xiaoyu laughed. After so many years, Tang Xian's ability to come up with names was still just as bad.

In the past, some of their classmates had also been nicknamed by Tang Xian, and these nicknames were characterized by being very direct. It's likely that in a few years, when a group of people recall the past, they may not remember the real names of their old classmates, but those nicknames coined by Tang Xian would surely be remembered.

"And yours?" Li Xiaoyu asked casually.

"Tang... Tang the Terrible," Dong Ran felt her cheeks burn.

Li Xiaoyu stopped laughing. She looked at Dong Ran very seriously.

"You may leave."

Dong Ran walked out of the study.

Li Xiaoyu turned around and sat back down in her chair, picking up a book to read as she had before.

However, she didn't read for long. With her mind cluttered with thoughts, she made a phone call a few minutes later to Hua Science Academy's fourth-floor department that studied ancient plants.

Being Tang Xian's classmate, Li Xiaoyu also knew Shang Lu.

Shang Lu, upon receiving Li Xiaoyu's call, was a bit nervous. This lady had a peculiar way of thinking, and the things she had done at school were unforgettable by anyone from their school years.

"Miss Li, what can I do for you?"

"I need a truckload of papayas, grapefruits, and kiwifruits."

...

...

The mining area.

The White Bone Mountain Range.

Located to the north of the Forest Sea and relatively close to it, Tang Xian had a lot of information on the White Bone Mountain Range stored in his memory.

The place sounds frightening, but it's actually just in the blue zone.

The most troublesome creature there is the elite-level boss, the Night Vulture.

As a highland with many caves and being close to the Forest Sea, this area is considered a large habitat for avian creatures.

Tang Xian and his group were now sitting in Tang Gazi's home, a dry and cool cave, eating the wings of the Bat-Eared Bat.

Tang Xiaojiu had oil all around her mouth, and bones were scattered around the edge of her bowl.

"Gazi, your neighbors are really delicious," she commented.

"Delicious, delicious," replied Tang Gazi. As an aviary creature, he had now been reduced to a parrot echoing Tang Xiaojiu.

All the birds of the White Bone Mountain Range were actually trembling in fear. Although Tang Xiaojiu hadn't shown the full strength of a catastrophe-level boss, she was close to the standard of a common creature at the disaster level.

A small girl looking like a human made an entire cave of Bat-Eared Bats vanish with a burst of fire, and this news spread quickly through the avian-inhabited White Bone Mountain Range.

Occasionally, Tang Gazi could even hear other birds suggesting in bird language that it should leave.

It puffed out its chest in pride and flew onto Tang Xiaojiu's shoulder, even though she had given it quite a scare with her burst of fire not long before.

With strong martial power, there was no need to use their brains anymore, so Tang Xian happily took on the role of a dedicated chef.

However, he needed to plan for some upcoming matters.

"Tang Gazi. In this world, you're after all just a small bird with no strength. How about you come to live with me and Xiaojiu in the Forest Sea?" Tang Xian asked.

Tang Gazi cocked its head, blinking its bird eyes as it pondered Tang Xian's words.

Tang Xian continued:

"If you don't want to follow me, I'll plant the Glow Mushrooms for you in a couple of days. But you should consider, with so many birds in the White Bone Mountain Range, just because the Bat-Eared Bats are gone, does it mean the other birds definitely won't bully you?

Let me list them for you, the birds that got along with the Bat-Eared Bats include the Night Vulture, the Rock Pouch Bird, the Sharp-Beaked Flying Squirrel, the Electric Leaf Bird..."

Tang Xian listed over a dozen species of birds all at once. In truth, most of them despised the bloodthirsty Bat-Eared Bats, but Tang Gazi didn't know that.

Being labeled the enemy of the entire Avian Tribe on one side and having a powerful fox and a human who could make delicious food on the other, Tang Gazi, though simple, knew how to choose.

"I'll follow you, I'll follow you," it nodded faster than a woodpecker pecking.

Tang Xian nodded in approval. The Myna was settled, and soon they would be heading back to the Forest Sea.

"After we finish eating, we'll prepare to return to the Forest Sea."

"Brother Tang Xian, if all the Cat Birds are eaten, will they grow back out of the ground?"

Breeding Bat-Eared Bats wasn't in Tang Xian's plans, so he decided to extinguish Tang Xiaojiu's desires for their meat.

"That's something to eat only occasionally. Eating too much of it not only builds up toxins but can also cause recurrent nausea. Do you know what nausea is?"

Tang Xiaojiu looked at Tang Xian blankly and shook her little head.

"Nausea means that later, when you see other delicious food, you won't feel hungry and can't eat it, and you'll feel really uncomfortable. You'll get sick just by looking at food and might even throw up what you previously ate."

"Ah!"

Tang Xiaojiu's eyes widened, and the bird wing in her hand fell to the ground.

There's food that can make you not want to eat after consuming it? How awful can this food get?
