Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 234 The Early Bird Catches the Worm

Gao Ge is only scaring Li.

After figuring out what has happened, Gao Ge waves his hand to ask him to get lost.

Qin Yuming wanted to continue questioning him but when she sees the terrified look of Li, she doesn’t feel like asking anymore.

If such a man is really the one behind all this, even the Dragon Court’s intelligence will be insulted.

Besides, Chen Long knows Li well and assures his innocence, so Li has been excluded from suspicion.

Having released Li, Qin Yuming feels a bit depressed, probably because she finds what she just got useless.

Looking at the depressed face of Qin Yuming, Gao Ge can’t help smirking.

He gets a contemptuous look from Qin Yuming, “What are you laughing at?”

Gao Ge coughs and hurries to say, “I just feel that you are as frustrated as a little girl.”

Qin Yuming’s face goes purple with rage.

She stands up akimbo and even starts to urge her strength, shouting loudly, “I am a little girl!”

Gao Ge grins without arguing about that.

Qin Yuming doesn’t want to bother about that with Gao Ge. They return to the hotel. The female ghost is still lying on the ground while Li Yun’an is staring at her with fixed eyes. Li Yun’an knows that the female ghost is important to the case. If she lets the female ghost flee under her very nose, she must be to blame.

Seeing that Gao Ge and Qin Yuming have come back, she is finally relieved. Then the following thing will not be her responsibility.

“Boss, how is it?” Liu Jun comes forward to ask in excitement, “It is out of my expectation that the manipulator turns out to be the owner of the farm tool store. As always, the big boss is lurking around us!”

Staring at Liu Jun’s stupid look, Gao Ge fills his mind with a myriad of thoughts and ideas and even finds himself in the mire.

Will all the people become like that after they join the Team Three of the east Huaxia branch in the Dragon Court?

He feels so scared even at the thought.

He is worried that he will become stupid for them!

Upon thinking of that, Gao Ge gets too fraught to sleep.

“It’s not him.” Qin Yuming says disgruntledly, “You have been in the Dragon Court for a long time. Why don’t you use your brain? That guy doesn’t look qualified enough to be a big boss! You are too young!”

Liu Jun is 40 years old anyway.

Yet, faced with Qin Yuming’s scolding, he controls his temper so well.

Gao Ge takes a look at Qin Yuming again. She notices his confused look and then immediately gazes at him. Eye contact is an important channel for communication. At least now Gao Ge senses the threatening meaning from Qin Yuming’s eyes, which is rather simple. She is probably implying that–If Gao Ge dares to say it out, she will kill him!

Gao Ge feels amused and doesn’t want to expose her. Instead, he is surer of his thought–Qin Yuming does look like a little girl.

“Boss, what to do with the female ghost?” Li Yun’an asks.

Qin Yuming feels a bit headache and subconsciously turns to Gao Ge.

Gao Ge coughs and says, “Keep her in your room.”

“Okay...” Having said that, Qin Yuming immediately realizes what she just did. She is disgruntled to say, “Who is the leader, you or me?”

Gao Ge is speechless.

He only answered that because Qin Yuming looked to him.

At the moment, Qin Yuming suddenly feels embarrassed.

Gao Ge is a new team member but out of no reason, she always subconsciously asks for his advice.

This is an adverse sign.

If such a situation goes on, she may as well step back and let Gao Ge be the team leader.

It will be easier for her.

“We are men. Of course she cannot stay with us.” Gao Ge says bluntly.

Qin Yuming nods her head and doesn’t feel like fussing about that issue. She waves her hand to ask Gao Ge and Liu Jun to leave soon.

Having returned to his room, Gao Ge sits on the chair and rubs his sore eyes. Yet, he doesn’t stop thinking.

“Gao Ge, I’ll sleep for a while and you keep on watch.” Liu Jun says to Gao Ge. It is a deal between them so Gao Ge has no comment on that.

Liu Jun is not fat but his snore in his sleep makes Qin Yuming and Li Yun’an next door shout loudly, “Who is drilling at late night?”

Loud as their shout is, only Gao Ge hears it. Liu Jun is still sleeping.

Gao Ge kind of envies Liu Jun’s sleeping quality.

Liu Jun is surprised after waking up. He subconsciously jumps off the bed and looks guilty to see Gao Ge who is still sitting before the window.

“Sorry. Sorry. I overslept...”

“It’s okay. Now is only 7 o’clock in the morning.” Gao Ge says smilingly.

Liu Jun is a bit embarrassed. He thought that Gao Ge would wake him up but Gao Ge didn’t do that.

“It is no point that we each sleep for only two or three hours. Sleeping for a longer while is better.” Gao Ge says.

Liu Jun thinks it over and nods his head, saying smilingly, “You go downstairs to have breakfast first. The breakfast coupon is on the table. After you come back, you can have a sleep. Sleep a little longer if you want.”

Gao Ge says, “Hmm.” And then he leaves with the breakfast coupon when he happens to meet Qin Yuming who is walking out of her room.

“To have breakfast?”

Gao Ge nods his head.

“Me too. Let’s eat together.”

You cannot expect the breakfast in the budget hotel to be delicious. It is good enough that they can be adequately fed.

They are drinking soybean milk and eating steamed buns. Qin Yuming complains for a while about the meat inside the steamed bun being smaller than the fingernail. Then she asks Gao Ge, “The dead cats have been dug out, which ruins the array. Will it stir the grass and alarm the snake?”

Gao Ge nods his head unthinkingly.

“It seems that the evildoers won’t take further action.” Qin Yuming says worriedly.

Gao Ge grins and shakes his head, “Not necessarily.”

“Oh yeah?”

“If they don’t take any action, our goal is half reached. Yet, we still need to observe for some time.” Speaking of that, Gao Ge suddenly looks to the entrance of the restaurant.

“Do you know him?” Qin Yuming darts a glance at the entrance along Gao Ge’s eyesight. That is a man in his fifties, who is wearing a tunic suit. He looks out of spirit and doesn’t seem to have slept well at night.

The man happens to see Gao Ge and instantly gets surprised. He wants to escape at once.

“Come here! Sit down!” Gao Ge suddenly shouts out loud.

The man in tunic suit looks so helpless, moving towards them reluctantly in short steps like a kid.

“What a coincidence!” The man grins reluctantly.

“Only you?” Gao Ge asks in confusion.

“No. Only I get up early...” The man in tunic suit feels so frustrated.

As a saying goes, the early bird catches the worm. Maybe he is a worm that gets up too early.

He wishes that he could go back to have an unprotected sleep.
