Godslayer: My Girlfriend Red Tassel

A hint of jealousy, typical of young girls and tinged with competitiveness, welled up in her heart. She slightly pursed her lips and asked casually.

"Commander Ye, you all seem to really like this Su Yan."

"?"

Ye Fan was slightly taken aback. As the leader of the Great Xia Dynasty, he was always good at understanding people's hearts. He only needed to glance at the girl's seemingly casual expression to see through Ji Nian's thoughts.

This stems from comparing oneself to one's peers.

No, I have to find a way to appease her. To honor this little girl, as such a useful employee, and one who doesn't even need a salary, she deserves emotional support... Ye Fan's eyes darted around, and he immediately showed a look of disgust, angrily saying:

"I don't care what others think, but to say I care about him? That's a huge joke! That bastard is always either causing trouble or on his way to causing trouble. If it weren't for the fact that he did at least a tiny bit of good work, I would have slapped him to death and thrown him to the mysterious place long ago!"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true!" Ye Fan pointed to his forehead, getting angrier the more he thought about it, and shouted loudly:

"Look at this thing! This is what that brat made of me. Everyone else's divine runes are swords, suns, stars, or mythological patterns, but I... I made a passion?"

If I were to truly become a god someday, I'd be ashamed to interact with other deities. I'd be afraid people would ask me what kind of god I am. Were I supposed to say I'm the god of "passion"?

Commemorating the moment, he chuckled contentedly and then looked at Zhou Ping.

Ye Fan quickly patted Zhou Ping: "Don't worry about why for now. Tell me about the places where Su Yan tricked you. Say out loud all the grievances you've kept hidden in your heart and all the resentment you've had for him for so long!"

Zhou Ping stared blankly at Ye Fan, unsure of what to say.

Within the Great Xia Night Watchmen's circle, the legend of Su Yan "tricking people to death without paying for it" was widely circulated. He had also heard about it, and sometimes he would deliberately have someone tell a few stories during meals, just for fun.

But to say that Su Yan tricked Zhou Ping is definitely not true!

Zhou Ping knew that Su Yan had always been considerate of his introverted personality, and aside from occasionally making harmless jokes, she never deliberately made fun of him. Because of this, he particularly admired this junior who knew how to maintain appropriate boundaries.

Not to mention that Su Yan had worked tirelessly for him without complaint, personally crafting the sword pellet. How could he possibly have any complaints about such affection?

Sensing the growing resentment of remembrance, Ye Fan blinked frantically to hint at it.

Zhou Ping, at least say something, even just a few made-up words. This is our company's top salesperson, someone we can't afford to offend!

Zhou Ping could only nod, and after thinking carefully for a moment, he said in a deep voice:

"He has one bad habit: he always likes to put me in awkward situations, which is a bit socially awkward."

"Hey, that's right!" Ye Fan slapped his thigh, his face full of pain and indignation. "This is not something a decent person would do! If you ask me, Zhou Ping, you should have just killed him with a sword back then! Tell me how that kid embarrassed you in public, reveal every detail!"

Under the expectant gazes of the two, Zhou Ping continued:

"It was when you saved me that time... You didn't know you were still alive, and I thought you had sacrificed yourself, so I lay by the bed crying my heart out. As a result, Commander Ye, you stood naked at the head of the bed and comforted me for half an hour. That kid Su Yan not only watched the whole thing on the monitor outside, but also specially recorded this part... It made me very embarrassed."

"???"

Ye Fan's smile froze, and she turned to look at Zhou Ping in disbelief.

Looking at Zhou Ping's serious expression, I almost peed my pants and nearly broke the fishing rod in my hand!

Damn it, I asked you to talk about Su Yan, and you opened your mouth and babbled on and on... Why am I the one who got killed in the end?

Besides, I'm the only victim in this whole thing, okay? And you're still feeling embarrassed? Every time I think about this, I hate myself for ever saving me back then. I should have just died!

Jinian blushed and turned to leave.

"Ha, what a load of nonsense! I'll meet him myself and see who this guy is that deserves your protection... Anyone who dares to manipulate the human world is the mortal enemy of my [Shangxie Society]!"

"Jinian, you absolutely must not provoke them."

Ye Fan could tell that the girl's words were just a mix of anger and jealousy, and she wouldn't actually do anything, but he still couldn't help but blurt out:

"That kid has a really sharp tongue. You may be stronger than him, but when it comes to roasting people... you could choke to death with just one word. Calm down!"

"I don't believe you can choke to death on just one word!"

Jinian was even angrier, and turned to leave with a dark face.

……

At the same time, in Beijing, at the training camp.

Su Yan hung the huge portrait of "Mask" high in the center of the rostrum on the playground. After gazing at it for a long time, he sighed and jumped down.

He took Hongying's outstretched hand, naturally put it into his down jacket pocket, and walked side by side toward the teaching building.

Hongying looked at him with her beautiful eyes and whispered:

"Su Yan, you're leaving again tomorrow morning."

"The cultivation resources Commander Ye sent are very valuable; I need to hurry and improve. Qi Ye and An Qingyu are also waiting to use them... Oh, and I also need to find a way to help Senior Zhou Ping condense his sword pellet. We really don't have much time left..."

He rambled on about trivial matters, and Hongying listened quietly without interrupting. However, a pang of heartache welled up in her eyes, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on his hand.

Su Yan suddenly stopped and smiled:

"Sister Hongying, do you want to come with me?"

"I dont go."

Unexpectedly, Hongying shook her head, raised her small face, and sighed:

“If it were a normal mission, I should be able to handle it with my current strength. But I asked Garan last night, and he said that you are going to Takamagahara to face a god. I can’t go with you because I will definitely be a burden to you.”

Su Yan was silent for a moment, then smiled and ruffled Hong Ying's hair.

"How could I be a burden? I'm actually stronger with you by my side! Isn't that how it's always portrayed in those shonen anime? Shouting about 'bonds' and 'friendship' makes your fighting power double."

"You only say that because you know I won't go." Hongying puffed out her cheeks and turned her face away.

"I'm not going. The captain is staying in Beijing for a while, and the vice-captain is also staying in Beijing to help you complete the data on Takamagahara. I'm currently acting as the commander of Squad 136. What kind of behavior would it be if I followed you around aimlessly? It would affect my career!"

"Oh, the acting captain?!" Su Yan exclaimed excitedly, his expression showing shock.

"Captain Hongying, could you approve my application to work two days a week and rest five days a week?"

Hongying pursed her lips and gave him a disgruntled look:

"Go home early, and I'll grant you a day of paid leave."

Su Yan looked up at the sky and sighed, "As expected, all team leaders are black-hearted."

"It's black, aren't you angry?!"

Hongying's eyelashes trembled slightly as she gazed at him with her clear eyes for a long time. Her delicate face suddenly flushed, and she quickly looked away, casually saying:

"It's all your fault... Anyone who has you in their heart will turn black."
