Chapter 1205: Found
Bai Xiao takes a sip of water and stuffs the empty bottle into her backpack.
Thanks to Qi Yuqing along the way, it was she who took care of her.
Huang Weiguang and that woman who was just defiant stood in front of her at some unknown time.
Bai Xiao looks at them, and their faces are unsightly.
Without saying a word, if you need help, you should have the attitude of someone asking for it. She won't continue to give her warm face to others' cold a**es.
Once is enough.
She stands up, "Captain Huang, do we continue on? Or do you want to go separate ways?"
She would never stop others from acting freely.
At most, they would just be a bit scared.
Huang Weiguang quickly raises his head, shakes it, looking embarrassed. Earlier, they were so rude, treating her as someone trying to take advantage.
Now they realize she truly is blessed with extraordinary luck.
This fortune is simply unparalleled.
Even if they were to leave now, Huang Weiguang would be reluctant.
It's hard to find treasure boxes in the dark, and even during the day, they hadn't found many.
Especially in this dim light.
It's beneficial to stick with the expert.
They can't afford to worry about their pride anymore.
"No, no, Dr. Bai, we absolutely didn't mean that."
"Then what do you want?"
Qi Yuqing asks deliberately, as if it wasn't obvious that they regretted it.
Realized how much they missed out on, huh!
"We... we..."
Huang Weiguang really has no face to speak.
"I was wrong, those ridiculous things I said earlier! I solemnly apologize to both of you, please forgive me. Give us a chance to cooperate." The woman quickly speaks up, willing to take responsibility for her own mistakes, not wanting to put the captain in a difficult position.
Qi Yuqing sneers, "Knowing this earlier, why did you act like that at first. Opportunities aren't always available."
The woman's face darkens, "I made a mistake this time, and it was my fault. Please give our team a chance to work together and find treasure boxes. If you can't forgive me, I'm willing to leave the team on my own, it's my mistake to bear."
For the sake of her team, she would reluctantly give up this opportunity.
Their team isn't lacking in talent or knowledge, but their luck is undeniably poor, far below average.
If there's a chance for redemption, she would even kneel to Bai Xiao and her team.
Huang Weiguang sternly scolds, "What nonsense are you spouting! We are a team, and as the captain, I will absolutely not abandon any member. You made a mistake, but some of it is my responsibility too, and I feel the same way, not you alone."
He earnestly raises his head and says to Bai Xiao: "Dr. Bai, to be honest, you can see it too, our team's luck is too bad. Until now, we haven't even accumulated enough task points for one person, not because of lack of ability.
We just can't find treasure boxes.
The treasure boxes don't seem to favor us much.
Indeed, it was our pettiness earlier, please forgive us.
Can you give us another chance to cooperate?"
At this moment, Huang Weiguang feels ashamed, who would want to agree to say such things?
They don't rely on others either.
Needing their cooperation means they have to share points with them.
Why would they agree to that?
Qi Yuqing coldly retorts.
"Wishful thinking!"
You can't just do whatever you want!
Huang Weiguang and the woman bow their heads.
Being reprimanded is what they deserve.
They really have no intention to refute.
If they were in the same situation, they would probably respond the same way.
And probably say something even nastier.
They really aren't good people.
Huang Weiguang prepares to turn away, no matter what, they will escort Bai Xiao and Qi Yuqing to the China Delegation.
One must uphold some basic principles in life.
After all, they are compatriots.
"We can cooperate, as long as you agree to the initial distribution method, then let's hit the road."
Like a bolt of lightning leaving the clouds and fog.
Huang Weiguang is almost bewildered.
Did she agree?
Did I mishear?
Who would agree to such a cooperation method; isn't this like freely giving them points?
Unless Dr. Bai is out of her mind.
Qi Yuqing glances at Bai Xiao, understanding that if it weren't for Huang Weiguang and his team being from Hong Kong Island, Dr. Bai probably wouldn't be so kind-hearted.
This is a pack of unlucky devils.
Unluckiness to the core.
Discontent, discontent! Still discontent.
"Get a move on, unless you want our leader to regret it?"
Qi Yuqing spits it out ungraciously.
This is a bunch of fools.
Huang Weiguang finally comes to his senses, "Dr. Bai, you agreed, you really agreed! Great, great, thank you, thank you so much, Dr. Bai, we will always remember your great kindness."
He doesn't know how to express his gratitude.
This is literally giving them points.
Bai Xiao waves her hand, "Enough talk, let's head out."
She's willing to help because the points she holds are enough to promote fifteen teammates, leaving five more, which isn't an issue.
If it's within her capability to help Huang Weiguang and the others, Bai Xiao is willing.
They're all descendants of the Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor, with Hong Kong Island's return near.
Compared to other opponents, the Hong Kong Island Team is a lighter burden.
If there's no better option, encountering teams from Indonesia, Thailand, she would help too.
If these teams advanced, their pressure in the semi-finals would definitely lessen.
Unfortunately, they encountered teams from America and Europe earlier, whose strength is formidable, making it impossible to prevent their advancement.
Setting off again, with Bai Xiao's agreement, Huang Weiguang and his team's morale surges.
At least luck is a more mystical aspect.
It's not that they lack ability, it's a lack of luck.
......
Two hours later, Bai Xiao and company finally find the China Delegation team, all nineteen present and accounted for.
It's not that they lacked points, after Gu Yangzhi left they regretted being under such an irresponsible leader; they misjudged him.
So the remaining members quickly organized, beginning their treasure hunt.
Luck wasn't too bad; they managed to complete numerous tasks, accumulating at least ninety points so far.
Yet because of Gu Yangzhi's desertion, they found a greater sense of unity.
All shared a common goal: to advance all nineteen members.
Thus, no one went back to submit tasks.
Making one last-ditch effort.
In the end, they saw Bai Xiao and Qi Yuqing leading a team emerge from the darkness.
Initially thinking Bai Xiao's team hadn't completed their task, they noticed behind Bai Xiao were strangers, not members of the China Delegation.
"Dr. Bai! What is the meaning of this? Who are these people?"
Qi Yuqing drops her backpack.
She takes a breather.
Damn, trekking continuously for five to six hours, she's exhausted to the bone.
"Dr. Bai specifically came with me to find you, hearing that Gu Yangzhi returned briefly, the captain was furious, so we are here to get you out."
Qi Yuqing doesn't need to hold back or hide, doing a good deed anonymously is for fools.
